About a month back, we listened to a lecture on Charles Haddon Spurgeon as part of our Humanities studies. Motivated by that lecture, I started reading a book of his lectures to his students. However, I didn’t get too far before I wanted to start underlining and marking the things that stood out… unfortunately I couldn’t do that because it wasn’t my book – it was the family’s.
So, I requested that for Christmas I wanted a book of Spurgeon – I didn’t really care what – just as long as it was by him and was my own (so I could mark in it).
Well, guess what I got? Something far better than I had hoped for!
My Dad got this for me – a beautiful, hard-bound 10 volume (5 book) set of Spurgeon’s sermons – in one of my favorite colors, no less. Furthermore, they are mine – which means I can make as many marks and highlight as many things as I want – with impunity.
I’ve already read one sermon and am looking forward to reading more…
My brother, Victor, and I bought a camera a couple months ago – a Nikon D40.
So, I’m finally getting around to post some of the pictures I’ve taken (pretty much all of the ones of me were taken by Lydia):
These particular ones are from October through the middle of November:
