A new dawn

College starts today. Robyn and I decided to set a precedent and be on time. Early even. So we left home at 7am. I didn’t even know there was a 7am. Let alone a 6am.

Needless to say we got to college fairly early. Earlier than anybody else – staff included.

There are 84 students at QTC this year apparently – and more than half of those are first years. And we’re keener than all of them (judging by arrival time alone).

Simone, in a little piece of offline wisdom, told us that the first few days of college are going to be all about establishing a pecking order (at least in our minds). I think it’ll be a bit like first year uni except without the low cut clothing and unrealistic expectations of finding true love in the lecture theatre.

I think pecking order should be established chronologically. So we’re first.

    unrealistic expectations of finding true love in the lecture theatre

    You obviously didn't study the right subject at 'regular' university!

    I suspect it comes down to who is acing the essays and exams, but punctuality is a good start! Enjoy.

    Fantastic start. Now you need to spread it around that you arrive early so you and your hot wife can pray for everyone else at college.

    I would have thought bible college students would be more likely to think they'd find 'true love' in the lecture theatre as opposed to regular university students :P

About St. Eutychus

Eutychus was a young man who fell to his death because the Apostle Paul preached for too long (Acts 20). I've decided to canonise Eutychus and make him the patron saint of my dalliances around the Internet.

About Nathan

Nathan is a Christian. A husband. A writer. A reader. A coffee drinker. A “spin twit”. A consumer. A fan of stupid gadgets. A fan of staccato lists in profiles.
