Whew!

It has been a grueling two weeks studying for midterms as well as keeping up with homework. I have had to stay up all night a few times and have had to burn the midnight oil many times. I just finished my last midterm yesterday. It was in classical electrodynamics; I don’t know how well I did, but I don’t think I failed. I got an ‘A’ in thermodynamics and a ‘B+’ in quantum mechanics. In the distribution of grades for this midterm I was about in the middle. I also realized soon afterwards that I had been making a couple of the problems on this midterm a lot harder than they needed to be, so I suppose I could have done better. I am becoming increasingly aware that I often make things harder than they need to be, and not just in physics.

On other matters, I have narrowed down which church to attend to either Memorial Presbyterian or New City Fellowship. I am becoming increasinly inclined to go to New City Fellowship; I am meeting with the pastor of Memorial today, though, to try to learn more about that church.

Thank you for the update. We also are narrowing down our choices for which church to attend. We are going to try one more.

Seth, you might like to know that I saw Todd and Liz Cursey in church today (visiting from St. Louis, for those of you who don’t know them). When speaking with Todd about you meeting them at Memorial, Todd said something to the effect of “It just seemed right to turn around and see a Waldecker there.”

If you can feel reconcile going to Memorial, it would be nice that you already know some people there 🙂

Anyways, I’m praying for you Seth, and I can’t wait to see you over Thanksgiving – I will be very thankful!

I’m glad your midterms are over. This is going to be my grueling week. I’m looking forward to seeing you on Thanksgiving, too! And then soon after that, Christmas!

Seth you are not alone in sometimes making things bigger than they really are. It is a gift to keep things in perspective and that’s one of the benefits of trusted friends and a loving family.
