My Special Place

October 21 2006

There is a huge hill close to where I live that I visit at night. You can see the lights of the city below and it's so beautiful. You have to be in the perfect position on top of the hill in order to see a clear view of it.


Should I take you with me?

My Day

October 19 2006

So.....I'm sitting in English class today.....trying to pay attention to my teacher.....and all of a sudden she stops lecturing and approaches me and tells me in front of the class that I look exhausted. And then asks me if I've been getting any sleep and if I'm okay. She then goes on and tells me that if she could she would let me leave class and go take a nap. Her homework for me is to get some rest. When someone tells you you look tired its like another expression for...."You look terrible today. haha. So evidently I looked terrible today. Yeah....


And then.....Alicia and I went to Wendy's for lunch and I burnt my tongue on some very very hot nasty chili. :-( Owwwy....

Haha. I laughed.....

In the beginning, God created the earth and rested. Then God created Woman. Since then, neither God nor Man has rested.



Life.....

October 11 2006

......makes me giggle



It gets so crazy sometimes and you don't know whether to go left or go right. And you feel like you are in this constant spin.



..................



And then all of a sudden you......STOP. And you realize that you have been facing the right direction all along.....and so you take one step forward.....



And you know that life is too short to take it for granted...



AND you start to LIVE it.....


Sometimes I feel like this little girl......

I talked my Women's Studies teacher out of class on Friday.......so I get to leave after my first class which means I am out of there by 8:55 a.m. ! YAY! Hmmm......whatever shall I do with all that free time.....



A lot of things are happening that I am so unsure of.  I'm just praying for some direction so I know what path to take...and to know most importantly what He wants.



I miss you so very very much.....

Egotistical college JERKS get on my nerves! I think my facial expressions always give my answers.


Frustration...

Yay!

September 29 2006

I feel better. Thanks for praying for me.


Parents gone for the weekend. House to myself.


Yay!


I'm Sick...

September 28 2006

I need prayer.


I'm sick and I really can't be right now because it's slowing me down a bit. And because I have so much to do this weekend.


This week I've pushed off homework one night to sleep and then stay up the next finishing what I should have finished the night before.


Take care of your body...because when you don't...you pay for it.


My bed with warm covers, soft sheets, and wonderful pillows...with hot chicken noodle soup and a grilled cheese sandwich sounds like heaven to me.


First stop...Wal-mart to load up on every sore throat and cough medicine I can find.

Definition of Females

September 26 2006

Since I've been in college I am around females....constantly....whether I know them or not.  And I've been seeing things I think I've overlooked or refused to see. And since I've been taking Women's Studies I have to study them and give my definition of what I think.




Girls are trouble. If you are a guy your best bet would be to stay away. Run if you have to. I feel sorry for you guys.




The End.




Procrastination

September 25 2006

Definition of procrastination:


putting off or delaying or defering an action to a later time


If you were to look up the definition of procrastination in the dictionary you would find a guilty looking picture of me.........


Bad. Bad. Bad.

So. Yeah. :0)

September 24 2006

Life is more interesting than I could ever imagine. I'm growing and I'm changing. I'm letting go and finally feeling free. I'm okay.

I think today is going to be a really good day.


I'm excited.

Crazy. Update.

September 22 2006

Crazy life. One day at a time. Busy. Wanting to do more things that aren't scheduled all the time. I think I just might. I'm going to the drive-in in Woodbury next weekend. Thank the Lord.


I'm actually having a problem in one of my classes because one of my teachers just can't...teach where I understand him.


So. This weekend I have to learn...what I'm supposed to know for a test on Tuesday. Eeek. Luckily I have Jonathan who always comes to my rescue to teach me in a way that I can understand. He spoils me.


I smell manipulation and it stinks like a pig. Girls have perfected manipulation.


Calm. Confused. Agitated. Withdrawn. Easily frustrated at times. Goofy most of the time. Says the wrong things at the wrong times. Wanting to say the right things at the right times. Yet...hopeful. (<-- Me)

Have I Told You?

September 20 2006

"For the morning sun in all its glory
Greets the day with hope and comfort too
You fill my life with laughter
And somehow you make it better
Ease my troubles thats what you do
Theres a love thats divine
And its yours and its mine like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray
To the one, to the one"

What is beauty?

September

September 18 2006

I'm absolutely in love with this month. September has been wonderful. School is going well. I'm making good grades. I'm getting a lot of hours in at work which means more money. The weather is absolutely beautiful...especially at night when the air feels crisp and it's perfect hot chocolate weather. I love to sit outside on my porch or deck and do homework or study by candlelight.



Life is going really well. I'll get occasionally stressed out and want to freak but I'm handling it because I have wonderful people in my life. In the end I know everything will be okay. It's just hanging on in the process.



Life is good. I pray it stays this way. I'm enjoying myself.


"Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight."
