Spelling on the internet...

The word definitely is spelled d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y, not an d-e-f-i-n-a-t-e-l-y.

Makin' Turtle Soup

So I went with Matt & Crystal's Small Group (InterVarsity Bible study group) to the NCSU game against Maryland. But before we went, we had to camp out to get our awesome tickets. The camp-out was a lot of fun, including free pizza, hide-n-go seek, UNO, and the "ha" game.

At any rate, we found ourselves with seats on the floor, third and fourth row, center court. Needless to say we had a great time and cheered the Wolfpack through to a victory against another talented ACC team. I took some pictures, which can be found here, along with my other pictures.

I'm out.

Beautiful soup, so rich and green,
Waiting in a hot tureen!
