You talkin' to me? Are you talkin' to me!?

Hello internet! This is Nick here. I sure have missed you during this long absence, but don't worry, I am back! So a lot sure has happened over the course of the past few months up here in Lubbock. Overall, Katie has done a great job of keeping you updated on my life! This past week has been my week of finals and I am very pleased to have my first semester of LCU done and under my belt. After four and a half months of hard work, studying, and reading until I went cross-eyed, I managed to get all A's! I tried to convince Katie to do something special for me to celebrate but she wouldn't have it.

While we're on the subject of school, I recently decided to pursue my Master's of Divinity after I finish my undergrad at LCU. I'm not sure where I want to go to get my Master's yet, but so far the most promising programs are at LCU, Abilene Christian University, Lipscomb University, and Freed Hardeman University. So basically I've narrowed it down to two places in Texas and two places in Tennessee. If any of you have any more ideas about where to go or what to look for, feel free to leave a comment with some suggestions or thoughts!

Well right now, Katie and I are watching one of our favorite TV shows, The Sing Off. I don't know about you, but I'm pulling for the group, "Committed." They're supposed to be singing and old Backstreet Boys song tonight so they already have my vote!

I can't wait to get back to Magnolia on Wednesday to see Katie's family and some old friends from back home. It's always nice to return home for a little while. On the 19th though, I'll be flying off to Nashville to see my mom and my sisters! Needless to say, I am CRAZY excited to get out there and spend Christmas with them. This will be the first time that I'll spend Christmas day with my mom and sisters since I was 11. Can you believe that?? 10 years! I can't wait! :) Also, when Katie and I get back, we will spending a lot of time on Friday meeting with different wedding photographers to see which one works out for us and what we are looking for. So please be praying that the whole process goes smoothly!

Well, that's pretty much all I can think to write about right now! Here's a little something to put you in the Christmas mood....
