The Oddities

The oddities of being in a new place just keep coming everyday. I absolutely love the fact that I'm way outside my comfort zone, but there are small things that creep up everyday and still makes me think, "Oh yeah I'm not in Alabama."

• I had to get my hair cut. I drove around for 20 minutes looking for a head-start or cost cutters! I just need a buzz.
• When people ride with me in my car I prefer to have the radio playing, rather than my ipod. For numerous reasons... they may not like every song Jack Johnson wrote and listen to that the whole way to our destination. It helps the avoid awkwardness of some random Dr. Dre song song rappin' about killin' the pigs or on the contrast having the Aladdin soundtrack come from out of no where and me busting into chorus of "a whole new world" (yes these are all on my ipod). With all that being said, finding a new radio station has been tough. But I found one 100.5, I don't think you can pick it up in Huntsville.
• Most of you know I love going to the movies. Most of you know this because I believe I have invited nearly everyone I know to the movies. I have a category of friends that I just like going to the movies with... I no longer have that luxury. If I call up a girl to a movie it quickly gets awkward and can easily be mistaken for a date. If I call up a guy to a movie and the movie has nudity or a lot of F-bombs, I'll be easily embarrassed because all of the guys here are way holier than me.

Through all of this God is blessing me with having me rely more and more on him and his strength. I greatly appreciate all of your prayers and support.
