is the world ending?

A few weeks ago there was one of the most dramatic sunsets I've seen here in Santa Barbara.  I didn't know what to make of it, but it was awesome!

I only have a few weeks left here, and hopefully there will be more sunsets like this one.  I can't believe that my freshman year of college has gone by this fast.  It really feels like last month was August and I was moving into my dorm and meeting all these amazing people for the first time.  But in less than a month I'll be packing up my room and driving back to LA, not to return until January 2012.  Because in less than 100 days I'll be getting on a plane for Scotland for a month, then an entire semester in Europe and Israel.  I can't wait for summer and Europe, but I at the same time I'm really going to miss my life here at Westmont in John C. Page Hall.

my famous friend

My good friend Jayme Dee is an amazing up and coming artist.  She is the most talented singer/songwriter I know, and is already making it big.  I had the privilege of seeing her play at the House of Blues in Anaheim a few weeks ago and I was blown away!  It's so weird to think that the girl that used to play worship at my church, at local coffee shops, and at open mic nights at our high school is now a rockstar!! This video is her cover of Adele's Rollin In The Deep, and I like it better than the original! Check out her website, youtube, and facebook. 

how many gummy bears?

That is the question of the night.

I asked my friend Erica to spring formal using hundreds of gummy bears and we had a few extra...  so naturally we put them in a Jarritos bottle one by one and kept count.

Any guesses?

talented friends

A few of my good friends preformed at 'The Study", a cafe/grill/hangout spot on campus last night.  Every Wednesday night they have students play.

Wesley and Sarah started the night off, and Josiah joined in on a few songs.  The last song they played was one Wesley wrote after he, Sarah, Erica, and myself pulled an all nighter in the bed of my truck parked by the beach and talked for hours and hours.  

Then one of the most talented friends I have went on.  Jasmine is a senior here and from my home church.  I grew up listening to her play worship and having her here at Westmont, especially when she sings in chapel, is very comforting and very fun.

Jasmine's voice is absolutely amazing, and every time she sings in chapel I have a good day.  It's like a good luck charm.
