Awake

Weekend Update

LSAT. Check.

I can officially cross "Take the LSAT" off my to-do list. (I get my score in 3 weeks.) Next up: drafting a personal statement, prepping my recomendation letter writers, requesting an official transcript from Biola.

I'm so glad that test is behind me. All the little things that could have gone wrong went very smoothly and I believe I put forward a respectable and diligent effort, so I'm at peace. (We'll see how "at peace" I am when I get my score.)

Winding down after the test on Saturday, I went to see the movie "Serenity" and I enjoyed it thorougly. (Sorry, Shawn, I didn't see "Junebug" yet, but I will. Soon.)

On Sunday, I introduced my mom to the wonderful world of Mac and helped her set up her new-to-her G4 iMac (the "table lamp" model). It's a fine machine and I think it will serve her well. Since M&D moved the home office upstairs to make a little more room for Grandpa when he visits, next weekend I'll set up a wireless network with two wireless routers to cover the entire house with internet connection goodness.

In other news, my lil' bro Brant reported to me on his retreat with his fellow Fuller NW M.Div. peeps. God is working out some amazing things through these men and women. I was blown away by some of the stories he told. One particularly fine idea that I am hoping to someday participate in is a co-housing community in Bremerton, WA called Bartimaeus.

The vision of Bartimaeus Community is to create a safe and welcoming place where people can substantially grow into the whole, healthy, unique persons God intended.

Mmmmm. Community. As my dad remarked to me recently, "Amber, it's time for you to get some new people." It's true, my people have moved on to better places. Maybe my time to move on is coming soon. I think so. (It may very well already be in progress, in fact.)
