There are only a handful days left here and then its time for finals! After that, its back home for me. It’s not smooth sailing from here on out. I’ve still got [...]

March 13, 2012
— Life at Bethel
I recently got back from my Spring Break in Atlanta! I thought I’d share with you a quick story about one of my favorite parts. First of all, the teammate that I stayed with has VERY Brazilian parents, so right away I knew I had to brush up on my Portuguese because I was going to be surrounded [...]

February 6, 2012
— Life at Bethel
So I’ve been surprised lately with something at the Dining Commons, and it isn’t the food! (Although today we had fruit smoothies and they were AWESOME, I had about 6 cups!) I’m a pretty friendly guy, so I love chatting it up with people. I’ve been talking to a lot of the staff in the [...]

MLK Day
January 23, 2012
— Life at Bethel & Music
Coming from Canada, I’ve celebrated black history month, but I never even heard about Martin Luther King Day as a holiday. It was really cool how Bethel’s chapel service that day was dedicated to MLK, there were poems, speeches and songs as well as a rap performed which talked about slavery and troubles that African [...]

Well, I’m still the same old me, but a few new years resolutions won’t hurt as I hurry into my second semester at Bethel College. I don’t mind a challenge, and when I make up challenges, they get pretty challenging. So I’ve set a few out for myself to see if Ican hold true to [...]

As most of my bloggies know, I’m Canadian, which means that I don’t celebrate Thanksgiving the same time as Americans do. We actually celebrate it in October. Either way, if there is a break in the semester, I’ll take it. I tried buying a train ticket to go back home like I did the year [...]

Halloween 2011
November 3, 2011
— Funny & Life at Bethel
So Halloween came and past. I’m the type of person who loves finding a funny costume and trying to put it together. As soon as October hits I always say to myself, ‘It’s time to start thinking about a costume.’ Over the past few years my costumes have been pretty funny. In 2008, I was [...]

Upside Down
November 3, 2011
— Life at Bethel
The theme of Chapel this season has been getting me thinking about many things. In particular, living for something greater than yourself. It is so easy for people to be selfish and have their own way, especially when it’s behind closed doors, and it seems as though nobody could possibly be looking. When people end [...]
