21st Birthday!

I turned 21! I had a great birthday simply because I have wonderful people in my life! I went to Ooka for dinner with my family; it's my favorite! We also had some good pie at my house. Also, I went to Chipotle with some friends for a small celebration; it was a blessing. And at work one of the students made me a cake and we went to Scandia! It was a great blessing! Thank the Lord for another year.

On the go-karts!

2 Year Anniversary

On June 3rd Michelle and I celebrated 2 years of being together. The Lord has blessed us with such a great relationship and we love being together. We went to the Palm Springs Aeriel Tramway and Mount San Jacinto State Park and Wilderness. It was so much fun!

I gave Michelle a pearl necklace =)

We had a wonderful dinner on top of the mountain.

We were on top of that!

Memorial Day Weekend

For Memorial Day weekend Michelle and I had a great opportunity to go to Del Mar and have a mini vacation! Since we aren't married, it is hard to get away and stay at different places. But our friend works for Air1 and got us free passes for Spirit West Coast and I stayed in a hotel room with other guys and Michelle stayed with some girls. We had an amazing time! It was such a refreshing time for both of us. Here are some descriptive pictures!

We were boomin' to Toby Mac!

The Newsboys were sweet.

Some older guy parked his wheelchair in the parking lot. It was funny!

We heard Nick Vujicic speak. He is truly anointed.

We were able to spend a lot of free time at the beach. It was wonderful.

There is a park that overlooks the beach. It is one of my favorite places!

We are so O.C. with our Starbucks at the beach.

Stoppin' for a pic.

The beaches are nice because they do not have soft sand.

Overlooking the beach.

We decided to go to Coronado Island! This is on the bridge.

We visited the famous Hotel del Coronado.

This is on the top floor of the hotel.

By the beach at the hotel.

Pretty sunset =)

I had a wonderful time with my love <3<3<3

Thank You Mexico!

In honor of Cinco de Mayo, my class had a celebration with nachos and horchata! It was fun! Yum, I really like horchata!

They Have a Good Philosophy About Education

Berea College in Kentucky is truly a remarkable school. I believe they have a great philosophy on education:

At Berea, which was founded in 1855 as the first integrated college in the South, all 1,530 students work at least 10 hours a week in a campus or service job, earning $3.80 an hour and four years of free tuition. Eighty percent of the school's operating costs are funded by its endowment and the rest comes from donations.

Instead of hiring workers and spending tons of money, students receive free education but they have to work at the school and maintain it. Obviously there are ways they have to spend money (room, board, transportation, etc.) and there is funding that is given because the teachers need to be paid. But I think this is a great opportunity for many low income families.

Their motto is:

“God has made of one blood all peoples of the earth. Since its founding in 1855, Berea College's scriptural foundation, "God has made of one blood all peoples of the earth," has shaped the institution's culture and programs. Founder John G. Fee, an ardent abolitionist, asserted that Berea was founded "in the midst of many privations and persecutions to preach and apply a gospel of impartial love..."

CBU Is Crazy

I just finished the Spring semester at CBU and yet they are still asking me to apply to their school. They are pushy! I am (or almost am) a Senior and they still have me on the college application e-mail list. lol.

Kevin, your future is approaching fast with less than four months before CBU's fall 2009 semester begins.

But don't worry (too much) ... you still have time to apply!

To get started, simply fill out our online application (select the "Undergraduate Daytime Traditional link) and your friendly CBU admissions counselor will do the rest.

Or, if you would like to speak with an admissions counselor now, call (866) 7676-CBU or send a note to admissions@calbaptist.edu

Want to find out more about CBU? Take an online guided tour or go to CBU TV to access a library of videos.

Thank you for your time ... have a blessed summer!
