Just A Lil' INTROduction

Well, here I am...sitting in the computer lab just chilling typing up this blog. Today, already, has started off to be interesting. I had a nine o'clock class this morning and unfortionalty I woke up at 8:50..WOW! I told myself last night that I would try and get up this morning to go to the spin class that the Baptist Health Plex offers, which by the way is at 5:30, but yea, that NEVER happened. I ended up, right before going to sleep last night, setting my alarm clock for about 8:15 this morning. I, however, never heard it go off. If it had not been for the guys across the hall slamming their door this morning, I would probabaly still be asleep right now, instead of being here. Thanks to them ( really thanks Chase and Garrett) I was able to get up and take my Quiz in my US History class and what not. But, anyway, i actually think I may need to be like writing something about myself on this post, so here it goes!

My name is Derek Walker, im 18 right now, but about to turn 19 in October! I have lived in Madison MS for my entire life and watched it grow from nothing to everything. I have two great parents who I love with all my heart and who mean everyting to me. I currently am a member at FBC Madison and am the Youth Intern there through December. I love to travel, espically on mission related trips. Over the past couple of years i have been many places including Anchorage, Alaska, Greece, Chicago, Tennessee, and many other places. I love traveling, but most of all, I truely love giving of my time to help others. I have always been the type to help others before myself. I truely believe, just as it says in the bible, that who ever puts themself last will be first later on. I want to be a servant to others and not myself, because that's what Jesus did. Right before he was crucified, he washed all of his disciples feet and made himself the very last! Anyway, haha, I am currently at Mississippi College as a freshman, and LOVING IT!!!!! The teachers, students, well, EVERYONE, here is amazing. It truely dose'nt matter who you go up to, everyone here is just so nice and welcoming that it feels like your back home just talking with friends. O yea, I really enjoy drawing, painting, well really anything that deals with ART IN GENERAL! But, I don't take all the credit for what I do. If God did not bless me with the tallents he has given me, I would not be able to do the things I do, say the things I say, or act the way I act! It is only by Him, that I am able to achieve everything I do.

Ya know, maybe I rambled on and on an on about alot of stuff, but hey, haha, who cares! I hope that, if you choose to read through this point, you have enjoyed it!

Just have on more thing to share with you.

"I am the way and the truth and the life, no one comes to the father except through me."
Thanks and talk with ya next time!
