Happy Christmas (almost...)

Ben and FriendsWow…I cannot believe that I’m flying home in only seven days! At this point in the semester, many of the students on campus are overwhelmed with the stress of finals, homework, relationships, and the anticipation of returning home! Surprisingly, I have only been moderately stressed due to the fact that the Lord God has enabled me to effectively handle the inevitable tension of stress by allowing me to embrace every moment that life has to offer.

To reduce the stress of finals, I engage in a “work-out” program every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Caroline, one of the most friendly personal trainers at the Beaman, provides me with good advice on how I can exercise safely, but in an efficient manner. On the week days, I typically work out between 10:15-11:30a.m. At the closure of each work out, I feel confident and healthy. For those of you who are stressed, I strongly encourage you to check out the Beaman Student Life Center. Without a doubt, working out has definitely been a “rock-awesome” asset to my daily lifestyle here at Belmont University.

On another note, “working-out” in the Beaman Student Life Center has enabled me to meet great people. Grant, one of my buds, is one of the most loyal and honest individuals that I have met at Belmont thus far. Most importantly, Grant has encouraged me to realize that the Lord God has a plan for everyone, which inevitably, has enabled me to recognize that life is what you make of it! Hence, I encourage all of you to randomly say “hi” to someone on Belmont’s campus. See where that takes you. You’ll be amazed at what the Lord God has in store for you!

I hope everyone has a blessed and fantastic holiday with family and friends! See you in 2007! :o)
