The City That Never Sleeps

Well, it's official. My residence is New York City. I guess not officially because I still don't have an apartment or address, but anyways. I have been a Columbia University student for two days now. Two days of long orientation, which has been very different than orientation at Lipscomb. It was said, "Romantic relationships between faculty and students are not prohitbited, but discouraged." Hmm...very good to know.

My class is huge with all kinds of different people. I've only gotten lost on the Subway once. I met someone from Pepperdine. I've seen campers. I'm going to Shiloh tomorrow. I start class Monday. Everything is going so fast.

Situational Ethics

While Marcus and I were walking to the movies, we came upon an ethical decision. Laying at my feet were two twenty dollar bills. I picked them up immediately and then didn't know what to do. Marcus didn't know what to do. We stood there on a completely empty street discussing our next move. The house next to where the money was found was for sale so no one was home. The realtor just happened to be our ex-landlord that still owes us $75, by the way. We decided there was nothing to do and Marcus stuck it in his pocket. We enjoyed a free night at the movies and ice cream. But I still do not know if we did the "right" thing? What would you do???

Are you serious?

To quote my favorite tv show surgical interns...Are you serious? Have I been married almost one year? Am I really moving to New York City? Am I really going to Columbia University? Am I starting nursing school? Is my best friend really moving to China? The answer to all these questions is yes! But my mind is having a hard time grasping all these changes. According to my husband, I never do well with change. When we were first dating at the change of each semester, I'd tried to break up with him, but he'd always talk me out of it though, lucky him. So pray that I do better with these changes! I leave for New York in two and a half weeks. My blog will be about all the changes in mine and Marcus's life as we make the move.
