Spring break... I miss you

Where I spent the last week...

I am sitting in class right now, and thinking about how last week at this time I was sitting out on the dock, going out on the lake, tanning, relaxing in the hot tub, and eating really good food. And right now I am sitting in class listening to my teacher ramble on about child abuse.. It's sad that I am bored during this lecture.. but really who can sit in an uncomfortable desk and listen to the same person ramble for an hour and fifteen minutes. After spring break is always a hard time for me. It is such a tease!! I mean summer is less than 6 weeks away and I am already getting antsy.

I had a blast last week with my friends Lindsay and Katie. We did absolutely nothing and it was the perfect break. We were all so stressed out with school and we needed a whole week of relaxation. We had a lot of fun, good food, and powerful conversations. I love these two girls so much, I am blessed to have such good friends in my life. WE HAD A FANTASTIC TIME.

I got back from the lake and I was so excited to see Seth! I was only gone for a week but we missed each other so much. It brought us back to the old days of long distance and talking on the phone. I am so happy he is here and that I get to see him all the time. He is perfect, and so supportive. It was great to be with him again. He is incredible and I love him!!! I am glad that I got a whole week with the girls and he had a fun, sports-filled week with the guys. But OH man, things are better when we are together.

In other news, my older brother Merrick left for South Korea on Wednesday. He will be gone for a whole year. I am definitely going to miss him... He has a blog too... He is teaching English to a bunch of kids in a private school. I am happy for him and nervous and I am also sad he is gone.

Also, my job is going well. I file papers and do grunt work, but hey I am getting paid and getting to know some cool people. I need to start looking for a job for the summer though. God will provide.

oopsie!!

Sorry It has been so long since I posted last.. been a little MIA this past week

I started my new job, its a lot of work. But it's pretty good overall.

When I get home, I either study or just CRASHHHH!

let me fill you in: Last weekend I went to New Orleans for my cousin's wedding. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL!!! NO JOKE! It was one of those weddings that totally just fits the people who are getting married. It was fun, and outside and very wonderful to be with the family. Robin was such a beautiful bride and Kyle was smitten.

ANYWAYSS. I had midterms last week and I ACED ALL THREE!!!! YESS! I was sooo excited. So as of now I have 4 A's... and one non-A haha! I am kicking butt! I am so pumped for spring break. It's going to be a great relaxation week. I cannot wait to escape. Ok, I honestly don't know what else to say. Life has been pretty blahh as of late.

Rain sucks, spring is just around the corner thank goodness. I can't wait. Hopefully I will remember to update this week while I am at the lake.

BEST DAY!

oHHH Tuesday..

okay wow, let me just say God is good. Tuesday was a blessed day. First off I got a FREAKING 100 on my Advanced Seminar test. And then I got a JOB!!! AHHHH! So this is what I will be doing... I will be working in a lab with some of my professors. We will be researching how family and parental conflict effects the way a child sleeps. Ok I won't necessarily be doing the research, but I will be helping. And I will be getting 9 dollars an hour! PRAISE THE LORD!! I am beyond excited about this. It will look great on my resume, it will teach me to actually use my major in the real world, and its going to be different and exciting. It's on campus which is great for me too. I will be working 15 hours a week. Do you know how much WEIGHT this takes off of my shoulders? Thanks for the prayers and I can't even describe how thankful I am for this job. :)

In other news, been thinking its time for me to get back in shape. I am sick of feeling like a slug. SOOO I am going to start working out more and eating healthier. My mom and I are going to have a contest to see who can lose the most weight. Haha, may sound silly, but she is GOING DOOOOOOOWN. muahaha.

Also, I am leaving bright and early tomorrow morning to go New Orleans. YAYY! Seth gets to meet the family. That is going to be exciting! I am ready to dance and I am excited my midterms are DONE!!!

Ok, I gotta go to class.
Be blessed.
Trust Him.
Love one another.

fave pics

just a few pics from the summer on that I LOOOOVE :)












yay. my people are pretty :)

midterms...

still studying...

two tests and a paper down. ONE more to go. blah. I am glad it is not until Thursday! Seth and I (and a lot of other people) went to a local family's house for dinner and dessert.. YUMMY!!! home made and boooyyy was it good! It was just what I needed with my busy week.. A BREAK.. and time to fellowship. I did miss out on bible study (but they were just watching the bachelor, so I am pretty sure I didn't miss out on anything spiritual) baha!

Ready for this week to be over. Ready to see my family. Ready to find more answers in the Lord. Ready to see where He takes me. Ready to know what is in store for me. Ready to understand his timing and plans. Who knows when all that will take place, but I'm hopeful there is a plan for my life. I am hopeful that He knows what is best for me. I am hopeful that my faith will endure, and my God will comfort me in times of trouble.

I haven't really been looking for a job... been so busy... I think next week is the week! Please be praying for that.
