Thanksgiving holiday

After being fully stuffed I just had to sleep in on the next day and catch up on my homework. One of my papers is on the music of Tuva. Tuva is known for their throatsinging and is just northwest of Mongolia. Tuva is a strange place along with strange people and strange music. Well, if that wasn't strange enough, just listen to the what the western influences have done to their traditional music styles.

Thank You for your prayers

As many of you know, I was in the hospital last Thursday as a result of kidney stones. Well, it was a pretty memorable experience which happened during the oddest time of my life. Anyway, the doctors said that it was 8mm in length which would've been pretty tough for me to pass it out. However, as a result of the prayers from everyone, I believe that I no longer have it in me. I only took one pain pill since I came out of the hospital and I don't feel anything at all. It never came out so I believe that it just disappeared which is a big relief. There is proof and witnesses that it was there. How's that for an answered prayer? Anyway, thank you everyone who prayed and those who visited me in the hospital. It's very comforting to know that you all are with me. And of course, last but not least, thank you God.
