Narnia...

My beautiful girlfriend and I went to see the new Narnia last night.  It was simply awesome!!!  There were so many biblical truths through out the whole thing.  I was skeptical at first because though Walden Media still has a huge part in making the movie, Disney no longer owns the rights to it.  They sold them to 20th Century Fox when Prince Caspian didn't do as well as The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe.  This was expected because even in the books, Prince Caspian is one of the less popular books.  Walden Media wanted a certain budget for The Voyage of the Dawn Treader and Disney didn't want to invest that much simply because Prince Caspian didn't do as well.  I feel like they should have stuck out another movie or two, but oh well.  It still turned out well in the end!  There were a few parts that were not accurate to the book (which is true of any movie really that is from a book) however at least one part was not accurate do to the visuals.  When Eustace was changed back to a boy, in the book it showed it as Aslan ripping the flesh off of him.  In the movie, it simply showed huge scratches on Eustace's (as the dragon) chest and Aslan ran his paw through the sand.  It was a little harder to tell what was going on.  All in all, it was a very good movie!  Plugged In provides an excellent and very accurate review of this movie.  Here is the link: http://www.pluggedin.com/movies/intheaters/chroniclesofnarniathevoyageofthedawntreader.aspx

The trailer is below.  Simply amazing!


Chronicles Of Narnia 3 Trailer 2

Clinic...

So I'm going to clinic today.  Pray everything turns out well.  I haven't been exercising like I should be and only recently started so I hope that doesn't have a negative effect.  My girlfriend is coming with me and this will be her first real CF-related experience.  She's scared the report is going to be bad and I'll have to miss school and be in Chicago for a couple weeks.  Pray for her. :)  After, we're going to possibly go to the zoo! :D

Sickness...

So please pray for me.  I'm sick.  I've been sick for a few days now.  I'm slowly getting better, but I don't want this cold to do anything to my lungs especially since I'm at school.  On top of me being sick, my girlfriend is sick as well.  Pray she starts feeling better.  This sickness is going around all over campus so while you're praying for us, pray for everyone that they get better, or stay healthy.  Thanks!!!

Quickie...

So classes are basically all into full swing!  I will be one busy person this semester!  I'm taking two freshman level classes for my minor and two classes for my major and then one gen-ed.  One of my major classes is History of Political Philosophy.  It is going to be a hard class, and any free time will be spent thinking and reading and writing papers for this class!  I'm taking piano lessons and am also playing handbells (which doesn't take that much time) and working as well.  My girlfriend's phone quit charging so she doesn't have a phone for a while, so besides the fact I barely saw her in the first place, I can't really talk to her anymore which is super sad!  But a very good thing about it is that it causes me to GREATLY appreciate the time I do get to spend with her.  That's all for now.  I gotta go get busy!!!

One More Thing...

I remembered one more thing that I forgot to add in the last post. Our doctor likes to do blood glucose tests once a year, as diabetes is a complication that can come with CF. I've had little problems with my blood sugar ever since I was little. I had my glucose test done in May, and when I went to clinic in June, they told me that, well in layman's terms, I'm pre-diabetic. So basically, the way I understand it, I am going to get diabetes and there's nothing I can do to stop it. I just have to wait for it to come. My girlfriend is going to help me make sure I eat right while I'm at school. She's a huge blessing in my life! :) (I just had to talk about her.)
