Last week I finally bit the bullet and did something I’ve been meaning to do for quite sometime: join Kiva. For those unaware, Kiva is an organization whose goal is to see worldwide poverty eliminated. They go ...

September 24th is National Braai Day in South Africa! Archbishop Desmond Tutu approves and so do I. Honestly the best pork I've ever had was the braai at the Masi Spur.

I went to the Dark Knight today with Juli. It is a fantastic movie -- definitely the best of the summer so far. And I don't think anything coming out will be able to beat it. I'll try to do a full review soon...

The next few weeks will likely be filled with posts about South Africa, mostly. I'm going to start posting pictures, stories and thoughts from my time there, starting today. Look for 'em, as they'll all be good posts, I'm sure.

I had lunch at Louie's today with Conner. He eats there so much that they comped our meal. Score! Can't complain about that at all! Incidentally, I had the blackened chicken sandwich with a side salad. It was good. Real good.

i'm a twenty-something starting this journey called life. i studied microbiology and chemistry in college and currently work as a systems analyst. that means i manage computers (and a lot of them at that -- linux, solaris, os x, and windows). but that's just what i do to pay the bills. less important than where i am at now is where i am going. for quite some time i've had a nagging voice whispering "mission" in my ear. thus the direction i walk. contained in these pages is a log of a bit of that journey (and everything else that i do).
