Pebbles

I know I haven't posted in a while. So instead of the usual long, rambling post about something interesting, I have a few small pebbles.

I have been studying for the MCAT this past while. Harsh studying. For those who don't know (I don't know, maybe you live in a cave), the MCAT is a standardized exam used by many Canadian medical schools to help them judge who would make a better doctor. They even have this journal article on their website that correlates MCAT performance with success in medical school. I don't have a link. I could probably find it but (1) I'm too tired and (2) I think tens of thousands of people paying $210 US is enough to write anything in a journal. Must be a great business. I should invent a standardized test...

I'm flying out to Ottawa in a couple weeks for Dan's wedding. I'm excited to travel. I'm also excited to see a good friend of mine tie the knot. I will always remember his advice: happy wife, happy life.

This year's season for the Knights has come to its end. Yes, it is true, we did make the playoffs. But considering 6 of the 7 teams in the tier did, it wasn't exactly all that hard. And, true to form, we got our asses kicked in the first game.

Nonetheless, it was a great season. I had lots of fun, and just enjoyed playing the game - win or lose. Well, mostly lose.

I have finished 3 seasons of 24 so far. I'm an addict.

I've been reading some books by James Fowler on human development and faith development. There's a lot of stuff I've been mulling about. Future posts, no doubt.
