Welcome Back from Summer Break!!!

My blog is back from summer break!!! As is, among other things, RUF large group! We had our first large group this week. Doug is preaching on Philippians this semester. The first two weeks of school we meet in the "Passion Pit" on campus. OU has asked everyone to call this area the "Unity Garden" instead, but it's popular use as a make-out spot has ensured that it will never go through a name change! It is a nice change to worship outside, where people walking by look in on what we are doing, and we can see the OU campus all lit up at night. Here are some pictures my friend John Stuart took for us:


Well, I thought I would start this semester's blog entries by writing a good old-fashioned top 10 list. So here you go...the top 10 things I am looking forward to this semester:
10. Our awesome "Not-A-Date" that we have planned for September.
9. Meeting new students and helping them realize that RUF really is the best thing around since flavored shaved ice.
8. The Harry Potter premier in November.
7. Meeting with students in various locations in Norman: the Gray Owl, Cafe Plaid, and the Union.
6. A Bible study on body image, boys etc that I am doing with 2 RUF girls.
5. The AMAZING fall weather in Norman...I fell in love with Norman last fall!
4. Going to Cane's (an Oklahoma restaurant kind of like Zaxby's) after football games with students.
3. Jogging Club...some girls are going to get together once a week to jog a leisurely 1.5 miles!
2. A road trip to Doug's Alma Mater with our RUF students to see OU beat Missouri.
1. Generally just living in Norman and working with awesome college students!!!

I will have to do a re-cap at the end of the semester entitled "The 10 Best Things of the Semester," and see how they compare!

Boomer Sooner!
