Wow, it has been months since I’ve updated. So, here are some pictures of what I’ve been up to: Now I’m back in San Marcos, and the weather is great, classes have started for my last semester at Texas State, and I couldn’t be happier!

“Feels good minglin’ with these laid back country folk, don’t it Hare?”
I spent the day in Bandera, TX today – population: 957. I was the “sound guy” for my friend Jon who played some country music with his cousin. As a “sound guy,” you really need to be a strong individual. It takes brute emotional, intellectual and physical strength to be exact. I can’t articulate just […]
The Land of 1000+ Activities
The past few days I’ve done so many interesting things. A few of us went to a small town called Gruene that feels like it’s stuck in the 1920s. Their actual slogan is literally, “Gently resisting change since 1872.” We danced in what felt like a big barn and everyone was like family. It was […]
optOmistic
I’m really liking living here at the Balcones apartments so far. I’m so close to many of my friends, and class is literally like 5 minutes away, running. Plus, I have a new palm tree, and I can live with Rand, my bro yo! We had our orientation with fellow GA-ers today, and it just […]
All in the Family
Mi familia (my family) will be coming down to visit me on Monday, and I’m trying to come up with some fun things for us to do. So far, here’s what’s on the agenda: San Antonio Riverwalk and the Alamo Glass bottom boat ride through Aquarena Springs Watch the bats fly out from under the […]
Painting my bike
Of all my ideas, I think this was one of the most solid: painting my bike 8 days before I have to be out of my apartment. Taking the bike apart has become at least a 10-day, messy, messy ordeal, and now that it’s in one thousand pieces in my tiny room, I will be […]
Just when you think
it couldn’t possibly get any hotter, you see this on the thermostat in the apartment: It’s 100 degrees tonight. That means I’m soon to lay in my nice, sweaty bed…and just soak in the hot.
Holy Cow
This is a picture I took after church last week – a police officer in the middle of the road chasing a rampant Black Angus. I thought this only happened at the Zmikly household on Saturday mornings.
livin’ life
Today God has answered one big prayer of mine that had been on my mind ever since I’ve gotten here. I won’t bore you with the details, but the whole process has showed me a lot about His sovereignty and His nature in general. Prayer really is the muscle that moves His hand. Prayer actually […]
Here in TX
Whelp, it’s getting to be my first year here in Texas, and a lot has happened…too much to tell. But, alas, I will try. First of all, I just want to say how extremely blessed I am to be in little ole San Marcos, doing everything I’m doing and meeting so many new, interesting and […]
