it's been a while............

.......since.........well you know.........I posted:).  Sorry it's been so long.

I guess a quick update would be that school, work, and soccer are in full swing for the second semester.  In fact, soccer is almost done.  Crazy!?!?!  Friday night we had our Senior Night.  Each year the seniors get to experience some sort of crazy shenanigans on Senior Night.  This year, the seven seniors on the soccer team travelled through "Middle Earth", dressed in our Lord of the Rings-esqe costumes.  We had to protect the golden soccer ball and get it from one end of the field to the other, basically.  It was a good idea and put together excellently by the parents of the seniors.  Additionally, we have Districts starting Monday and then after this week, and maybe another, I'll be done with soccer.  It's bittersweet.  It's been good to build relationships on the team, but I have missed youth group because I have had soccer.  

School's been progressing........slowly but surely.  I am basically done with my first semester on both my FLVS classes and am already making ground in English.....Precalc is lagging behind though.  I would always appreciate prayer to keeping pushing to finish this semester strong.  :) Senioritis can be a powerful thing.  

The college search/applying process is en route, but moving at a slow pace.  Ack!  I really need to finish those.  

Work is going fine.  We are going to be doing webinars for Accordance soon.  We had a trial run today.  It is a pretty neat thing.   It is not the easiest thing to set up, but it'll be nice when its done.  This way people do not have to travel to go to a seminar and our oversea customers can participate as well.  It is basically a seminar on the web.  So yes, work is going good.  I have nothing to complain about:)

Other than that, more recently my throat's been nasty to me :( and has not been feeling the best.  Hopefully it will get better soon. 

With that said, life just continues to be busy.  It gets hard to find time to do what's important in life, besides school and such.  Hopefully I can realize that somethings are worth being done each day.  Taking the time each day to spend with God is important and that often gets thrown to the way side.  Also, I have realized that it is hard to slow down a bullet train and direct it in another direction and get it back up to speed.  I have found that going through hard times is tough and getting yourself back on the right track can be even tougher.

Hey Matt,
I didn't know you did FLVS classes too. That's cool. Sounds like you've been really busy lately with a lot of decisions to make and stuff. I will be praying for those.
