...Tom's Back???

Indeed I am, and I'm a college graduate!!! Woohoo! Words really cannot describe how I'm feeling right now. I thought graduating from high school would forever be the greatest "exit" of my life, but I'm gonna have to say …
40 Days of Purpose: Day 20

Hard to believe that I'm already halfway through this college-ending devotional journey. That is pretty crazy. I'll be a college graduate three weeks from today! Whoaness. To be honest, the past four-five days have felt …
40 Days of Purpose: College-Ending Edition

Tomorrow I embark upon what I hope will be a cool, memorable journey. Six or seven years ago our (old) church went through "40 Days of Purpose" along with so many other churches at the time. It was a program that was bas…

Spring semester 2006 started out oddly. Christmas break was over and my dad had driven me back to college with all my clothes and stuff. But before he left to go back home, he asked me to come out of my room and talk wit…
Branching Out

It's late; I'm tired. But I told myself two days ago I would write the next part of my story later that night. And, well, here I am two days later still not having written it yet. Time to fix that. After the bumpy start…
My Friend Chelsea

With a roommate that actually liked me, and who(m?) I liked in return, things started to turn for the better. I could actually come to my room after class rather than flee to the library. If my roommate walked in on me n…
