Milkshakes?

This morning was awesome as Studio was cancelled and I got to sleep in until 10:30 :D. However the night before wasn't so great for many people in Missouri and the midwest. I got on facebook this morning and didn't realize how bad the storms actually were until I saw all the posts. Branson's strip was destroyed as well as some other places so prayers going out to all the victims. I went to the gym with Katie and I had a good workout. I came back and ate in my room while watching Jane by Design that I missed from last night. I filled out my last scholarships then went to Race, Class and Gender. After class, it was small group time. It was a really deep discussion but so good. I have decided that I am starting to not like my computer because it did one of its scans and restarted the computer. I didn't save my ecology notes from last night because I thought I was only going to need them one more day. They were gone after the restart so I borrowed Sean's and retyped them. I went and ate dinner with all my friends. Kaci came back and chatted with me while I finished typing up notes. We went to CCH for DIG. Tonight was one of the few nights when I felt like I was so focused on God during the music and I just got to talk with him. It was awesome! After CCH Kaci, Katie and I had a quick Florida meeting. Katie introduced me to birthday cake oreos that are ok I think but original are better. Sean, Lauren and I came back and finished going over the second page. The three of us and Kaitlin went to McDonalds and studied some more. I tried a Shamrock shake for the first time and I would definitely recommend it if you like mint. We got a little distracted with milkshakes and facebook but were able to get some studying done. We came back and Jauan and Harris came in and talked for a few minutes while I reviewed my notes. I did not get to my bible reading today but will hopefully catch up tomorrow since I have the whole afternoon to study for my Studio test and read for it. Tonight's question is what are five things you are looking forward to? 1)Spring break in Florida, 2) SUMMER!, 3) Sports Camp, 4) going home this weekend, 5) graduating with my degree :) Well I am off to bed, pray for me for my test tomorrow! Good night!

No sleep till Brooklyn

This morning I woke up to my alarm, was so tired still so I just went back to bed. I was a bad kid and missed Ecology but I didn't really miss anything. I saw Sean on my way to P.R. and asked him what I missed. He would go on the day Lauren and I don't. We spent all of P.R. working on our second press release. I went and ate lunch with my friends. Carlos and I met up in the cage to attempt to start working on our photo blog for class. I got all assignments on the server. Carlos, Adam and I decided to go shoot our day in the life of Warrensburg assignment together. The guys had eaten so we went to Cafe Blackadder before. I didn't eat since I had just eaten lunch. It would of course start raining when we went to shoot. We had fun driving around in the rain anyway. We couldn't shoot outside so we went into stores like Hastings and such. I saw Zack, one of the kids that lives on the thrive floor outside Pro Cuts and asked him if I could take his picture. He started posing for me. We came back and put our pictures on the server. When I got back to my room, the door was locked. I called Kaitlin to see if she had locked and she didnt. One of the CA's came to unlock it for me and Kaitlin got back at the same time. Her key didn't work so we knew they finally changed my lock but guess what, they didn't leave the keys for it :/. So we went from one key to no keys.  The CA unlocked the door. I studied ecology some until I went to dinner with the others. When we got back, Kaitlin, Megan and Dalton were watching the House Bunny. I watched it for a little bit until Sean, Lauren and I went downstairs to study. We studied for a couple hours. Kaitlin and I were planning on going to County Kitchen later tonight just because we thought it would be fun. Sean and Lauren ended up changing our minds so we all went to Applebees. Kaitlin drove and took the longest way possible to get there just to avoid highway 13. Bahaha I know she appreciates this blog post right now. When we came back however we drove on 13 and made all the green lights. Applebees had half price appetizers so we all got wings. It was very good. When we got back, I studied for Studio some. I did my bible reading. I got to talk to mom again this evening and I am excited about going home to see them Friday since it will be the first time in a month, probably the longest amount of time ever being away. Tonight's question is what is a month/year of your life you were the happiest and why? I would have to say July 2010 because it was the Nationals Games in Lincoln, Nebraska. It was one of the best weeks ever, getting to be a part of team Missouri.I got to be Mandi's pr assistant which was a lot of fun.It was also summer so it was nice too. Here's my blog line from nationals games http://somo.org/Page.aspx?pid=663. Also Mandi blogged today about why she loves SOMO and it had to do with national games. I agree with her on my favorite moment. Here's the link for that if you want http://specialolympicsmissouri.wordpress.com/2012/02/28/why-i-love-my-job/. Well good night!

You are more

I don't know about anybody else but this has been a really weird Monday.It's been good but then there have been a few not bad but annoying things. This morning I got up and went to Studio. He did a demo. Annoyance #1-I feel like the photography professors aren't being specific on assignment requirements then they grade you bad when you don't do what they want but they left it to your interpretation. I took my flash back and asked Hannah about my key. Annoyance #2 I have paid for a new key but another day goes by and no key. I came back to the room and took my photo quiz and called Schuster to get info for my press release. I filled out some scholarships then went to do my studio assignment with Dana. This assignment is our desk so we could put whatever we want in it to describe our desk. We are done with shooting in the studio till after Spring Break which is nice. That will open up some more time. I came back to the room when we got done and had already missed lunch so I just ate some chips. I made a smoothie then went to Race, Class, and Gender. That was an interesting class because we started reading a book that talks about females and feminism and the boys were extremely uncomfortable. I went to the bookstore and got some envelopes for my scholarships then went to forum. The speaker was a portrait photographer. She was talking about how she didn't let family members or friends get pictures for free unless they were willing to move a couch out if she asked. She looked at me and was like I bet you have a lot of friends who would do that for you and I thought about it and I actually do :). I went and ate dinner with my friends. After I came back and worked on scholarships some more, reviewed Ecology powerpoints and watched last week's glee over again. I read my chapters of Captivating for small group and then did my bible reading. Annoyance #3 3 different guys came in here tonight while they were stinky and made our room smell like a guy. Jauan was one of them and bombarded me with a sweaty hug. Yuck! lol. Tonight's blog title is because I don't really like doing studio assignments because I think it doesnt make me look like a very good photographer but I know that I am more than that class.  It's also a song by tenth avenue north and here it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgi-G-dHYkY. Tonight's question is what are your thoughts on your family? hehe I love my family and I am not just saying that. Since I have gone to college, I have actually grown closer to them. One of the best things in life is being an aunt. I get to spoil Zack, Zoe and Casen whenever I want. I could tell my family anything and they always have my back. I forgot to mention in yesterday's blog that Kirsten's friend passed away so if you could please be praying for her and her friend's family. Also please pray for my scholarships that I will get them and to have God's guidance on which ones to fill out. Thanks! Good night!

I beat your pumpkin

I don't know how the weekend went so fast but it was an amazing weekend. This morning Kaitlin, Justin and I got up, went to the Donut Shop and then went to church. Justin Danielson gave the sermon this morning instead of the usual preacher. He did a great job and it was on love so it was really interesting.  The band played beautiful things and they got it almost exact to the original. After church we ate Ellis for lunch. Kaitlin and I came back and watched Just Like Heaven. I made Justin go outside and pretend like he was playing tennis so I could take some pictures for my photo assignment. I came back in and put Aquamarine in while I did my bible reading. I was pretty fortunate to have hardly any homework this weekend. Kaitlin came back and we watched Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. We went to dinner with the others. I went and played Just Dance with Kaci and Shelley. We were waiting on Luke to get back so he could play with us so we were sitting in Derrick's room. We ended up talking and watching the Allstar game for a while. When Luke got back, he, Kaci and I played Just Dance 3. Whenever we play this is halloween, Kaci always wins because she is the pumpkin so I was being a meany and was like ha I beat your silly little pumpkin this time. We had a good time though. I came back and finished sisterhood of the traveling pants then we put the second one in. I went downstairs to see how the boy's game of risk was going and to get some ice. I did get to talk to my mom and zoe today. I had to talk to my mom alot because I was trying to fill out scholarships and UCM wasn't being very nice online but we got it worked out. Now Kaitlin and I are finished the second one before bed. So I am starting this blog challenge of answering a question a day that it gives me. Today it is what is your favorite quote? I have so many by Dr. Seuss, Walt Disney and Steve Jobs.  Either "you are never to old to set another goal or dream another dream"-C.S. Lewis or "Be the change you wish to see in the world." They are both pretty explanatory but equally awesome :) Well good night!

Snow man carrot nose

I awoke this morning, anxious of the arrival of my friends from home. I was pretty lazy until the girls got here. Elizabeth called me when they got here so I was telling her how to get to this dorm from where she was. They ended up going to Ellis but finally found their way here. Kaitlin, Ashley, Jac, Liz, Justin and I walked over to the Union and ate at Chick Fil A for lunch. Lauren B. came and ate with us. Then we went and met Nora,Lauren M., Morgan, Zoey, their friend Kelley, and Liz to go to the game. We got there and got our free shirts and free pom poms as well. These black out game shirts were way better than the football ones just saying. Jennies lost in over time :(. Kaitlin Stump came up and sat with us after the girl's game so we got to chat with her some. We left the boys game at halftime and went to Ellis to eat. The Mu game was just getting over and the lost in overtime by one point :'(. I thought they had it but at least it was close. After we got done eating, we came and played Telestrations. That game never gets old. Kaitlin had turkey and it turned into so many things one including a snowman head with a carrot nose. Things got completely change around this game. We were laughing so hard and it was a great time. I tried to put Elizabeth in a shoulder sit after which mostly worked. After saying goodbye to them, Kaitlin and I came back upstairs and watched the Lion King.  Apparently our timing on movies wasn't good tonight because we caught like the end of Monster In Law, Coach Carter and the Devil Wears Prada. I got to catch up with Joey some and talk to mom. Molly made chocolate cupcakes and allowed us to sample them. Prayers going out to Kirstin's best friend who has cancer, Robb lost a good friend of his today, my dad with continued healing, Caley Sessions with a quick recovery from a torn acl, and Joey to get into to college if thats what he wants. If you could just say a quick prayer, it would be much appreciated. I think God for the blessed day he has given me with my friends from here and home. I miss Jac, Liz and Ashley already!Well I am going to do some bible reading and probably go to bed so I won't be tired for church. Good night :)

I wish my life felt like a High School Musical

Happy Friday! Studio this morning like every other Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Kaitlin and I went to the gym after. Patch Adams and Hairspray were on while we were working out go figure :/ when I couldn't watch the whole thing. I went and lunch with my friends at noon. I of course had to give Derrick a hard time for not playing Telestrations with us last night.  I met Dana and went and worked on our Studio assignment for a couple hours. I am really excited because one we get next week's assignment done on Monday, we won't have any shooting assignments left until after Spring Break. I am almost certain that I don't want to be a studio photographer, I want to be in my field all the time which I will be able to do with pr or if I was a nature photographer. I came back to the room and watched Legally Blonde with Kaitlin and then fell asleep when the second one came on. When I woke up, we watched Spongebob. We went and dinner with Russ, Justin and Liz. We had some very interesting conversations,one entailing a bowl of watery pudding and another one about how this guy in the dining hall had a laugh like Nathan Purvis's. I was talking about how we were going to watch HSM 3. I started singing songs and Justin would finish them. We back from dinner and watched it. Megan called Kailtin and I answered and she really thought it was Kaitlin at first. After the movie, Justin and I went to Sean's concert at CCH. He was good if I was into Screamo music. When it was over Justin and I walked back and it started snowing some. I came upstairs and painted my nails while watching FRIENDS. Now I am probably going to go to bed after I get my bible reading done that way I am not tired when Jac, Liz and Ashley get here tomorrow. I am completely blessed and thank God for this great week he has given me.  Today I was told by two people of how proud they were of me for keeping my faith in college and what I do with Special Olympics. It makes me feel so good but I have to give God all the glory for it. Well good night, here's to an amazing Saturday!

Banana Wang

It's almost Friday! :D This morning it was gorgeous outside. It was actually about 70 and with no wind. I got up and went to Ecology. She actually didn't talk about evolution. I went to P.R. after. Then I went and ate lunch with my friends. We talked for a long time until finally we left. I came back to the room and messed around on my computer for a bit then ended up taking a nap. When I got up, Kaitlin got back. The weather had cooled down quite a bit and the wind picked up.  We watched FRIENDS and then Kaitlin, Megan and I went swimming. The hot tub and pool felt amazing. It was nice to be in the water and it made me want summer really bad. I talked to Mom for a few minutes and Dad's nose is doing well. He has a few stitches in it but everything looks good. We walked over to Todd and ate dinner with our friends. We came back after dinner and decided not to go to Roommate Rumble because it looked like we were going to have to answer a bunch of trivia questions not what we thought. Russ, Justin, Kaci, Kaitlin, James, Crystal and I played Telestrations. That game never gets old. After the game Kaitlin and I started watching High School Musical 2. I made us smoothies but they didn't end up being too great tonight. If Jacquelyn was here she would say they had a banana wang to them because that's what she calls banana smoothies. Kaitlin has gotten me addicted to Nutella and graham crackers. Now we are watching the movie still and I'm going to do some bible reading then go to bed. Good night! I am so ready for the weekend!

Here's to us

It's that time again,Wednesday! Today was probably the best Wednesday I have had in so long. I got up and went to Studio. Kaitlin, Katie and I went and worked out and it was gorgeous outside. After a good work out, Kaitlin and I came back to the room and made lunch in our room. I made us some strawberry-banana smoothies. I watched Jane by Design that I missed last night. I went to Race, Class and Gender. On the way to class, the teacher was in the elevator with me and she was like, "I really enjoyed reading your paper." :D Then in class we divided up into groups based on our interest for our make a difference project. My group is doing animal abuse awareness and helping at an animal shelter. I am so excited to play with puppies and kitties and help out. The teacher passed back our papers and I got an A!Which is awesome because my computer erased the paper if you recall and I thought I would be lucky to get a B. She even let us go 30 minutes early. That was enough time for me to put my clothes in the washing machine. I went to small group. Our chapter this week of Captivating was about our relationships with our parents and how that shapes us. Made me again realize what a great mom and dad I have :). I went to Walmart with Lauren, Kaci and Russ after. When I got back Molly and Kristen gave me a cupcake and then I folded my clothes. I went and ate dinner with my friends. I came back and hung out with Kaci until DIG and just talked for a little bit. I vacuumed the floor then went to DIG. As always, a great night at DIG.We talked about David's life and sin. When I got back, I talked to my mom for a bit. I did my reading for P.R.Now I am watching FRIENDS before I go to bed. Good night! Tonight's blog title is a song about making mistakes and its ok which I am learning. Here's the song if you want to listen - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvjAF8bkZoc

The wait is on

This morning as much I would have liked to stay in bed, I got up and went to Ecology. I probably should have just stayed in bed though because I just wanted to yell at the teacher the whole time. She said that dinosaurs where on this earth way before humans and definitely never at the same time. Lies! God made man a few days later. Why is it ok to have evolution shoved down your throat but not religion?After Ecology I went to P.R. We turned in our first press release. I found out later that I made a mistake, so I pray he doesn't catch it, otherwise that one ap style error with get me a bad grade. Of course, knowing this I am stressing but its in God's hands and there is nothing I can do about it now.  I went and ate lunch with my friends. I came back to my room and made a smoothie then went to Editorial. The last half of class we did a light tutorial. I love dynalites and speed flashes! I put my Studio assignment on the server and then came back to the room. I did my bible reading and then went to Todd with my friends. I ordered a turkey burger at the grill. For some reason, the guy thought I wanted mustard(he obviously doesn't know me) and he got it all over the burger in fries so needless to say it went straight to the dish washer. Justin was kind enough to get me another burger-mustard free. We walked back over and watched Glee. It was a really good episode but how they left it is so annoying because we have to wait till April to see what happens. We watched New Girl and Raising Hope. Then everyone left.I stayed in here and read another chapter of Ishmael. When were watching Glee,  I kept saying how much Sebastian on there bothered me for what he did to Blaine. Morgan was saying I had a hidden mean person in me tonight. Her and I's personalities where swapped for a minute. I like erupted because everything that was bothering me about today just kind of came out. It wasnt even a bad day, it was just I had so much on my mind. Well I am still trying to keep a good attitude for the week. Good night!

I don't remember getting married

In case you were wondering, I felt like giving the blog a new look. So I rearranged some stuff and changed the background.This morning I got up and went to Studio like every other Monday. I came back and studied some more for Race, Class, and Gender. I took my quiz for Studio. The Spongebob Squarepants movie was on which completely made the morning. I took a little nap that last about a half hour because my phone kept going off and then the lady was vacuuming in the hall. I read my bible some and then went to lunch. It was a visit UCM day apparently because there were so many people in the dining hall. I came back and had a mini study session with Molly. I made myself a smoothie and then went to Race, Class and Gender. I am not sure what to think of the test because I know I got the short answer right, I am just not for sure on some of the multiple choice because there were like 2 answers that seemed possible for most of the questions. I got done early so I came back and was pretty lazy until Forum. The speaker talked mostly about advertising so I wasn't overly interested. I came back to the room and talked with Kaitlin and Meghan until they left and I went to eat. So I always say Liz is my daughter (long story) and somehow Justin started calling Lauren his daughter; while we were eating, I was like our kids should have a play date. Justin was like I don't remember marrying you so then for the rest of the evening we joked about being married. He and Russ came back here after dinner. We just hung out, talked and listened to music. We had a really good conversation. Russ left and Kaitlin got back and joined in our convo. Justin kept saying he was going to leave but then we would get him back in the conversation. He left after a while and Harris came in and played with my dart gun for a few minutes. I did my bible reading and am actually going to try to get to bed earlish so that I am not exhausted for Ecology. It was so nice to have a Monday where I was so relaxed and didn't have to worry about a bunch of homework. Thank you God! Here's tonight's song: boast in the Lord. We had another mini hurricane here tonight with so much wind. Well good night!

That's my ladder

Apparently last night, I bit my tongue in my sleep because I woke up and hurt. I looked and I had a line across my tongue. I went to church with Russ and Katie and met Justin there. I am really excited because on Sundays I want to go to church and look forward to it which is how it always should be but it used to be where it would be hard to pay attention sometimes. I love the songs we sing there! Here is You are my all in all that I couldn't think of last week. We saw all the Show Me people from last night at church to which was pretty cool. After church Russ, Justina and I went to Planet Sub and ate. That is the first time I had ever tried it and it was good. I came back and studied for my Race, Class, and Gender midterm tomorrow. I worked on my press release and did my bible reading. Kaitlin got back and we watched High School Musical and the 3rd Bring It On while I did my homework. I talked to my mom some. I made Kaitlin and I strawberry, raspberry, banana smoothie in the new blender and it was good. I found my Studio book, thank you God! It was on my shelf where I had searched at least 3 times. I went and ate dinner with my friends. I came back and skyped Ashley for an hour. At 8 Kaitlin, Russ, Kaci, Justin, Lauren and I watched Lord of the Rings. Half of us actually watched it. After disk one got over we got on the topic of middles names then what our names meant so we looked up everyone's meaning and how popular it was. We talked for awhile. I even got to try Nuetella for the first time!It is so good.Justin took Kaitlin's ladder out of nowhere and took it to Lauren's room but then Kaitlin brought it back. It was pretty funny. I had a very good Sunday. I am determined to make the most of this week since it seemed to work out well for me last week. I am so excited for my Truman friends and Ashley to come visit on Saturday! Well good night!

Dare you to move

Today has been a terrific Saturday! Last night apparently there was a party at the house right next to the campus.I woke up at 3 am and  heard people yelling. I looked at the window and there were like two girls yelling and people cussing and then I am assuming the cops came because they took off all of a sudden pretty quick.I got up and 10 and read my bible some. I went and ate lunch with Kaci,Katie and Justin at noon. We stayed there talking for like an hour. I came back and finally figured out how to get the camera card reader open but then I did not have a cf card for it. I decided to go to walmart and get one and I bought my blender that was my vday gift from my parents. I came back and messed around with the camera while watching Bring It On 4. I tried to study a little. Kaci and Katie came over so we started getting ready for the Show-Me Youth Home formal. I put in Beauty Shop to watch while we did.The three of us and Lauren M. left to go there. They served as a dinner before the dance. It was delicious. We had spaghetti or fettuccine, your choice which was quite messy for being dressed up. After dinner the dance started. There were kids there anywhere from the age of 3 and up.So cute!Emily, Lauren and I took pictures. This one little girl wanted to take pictures with my camera so I let here with the camera still around my neck. Then she wanted to take a picture of me so I let her do it with the camera attached to Katie. She asked me if I had a boyfriend and I was like no so she made James take a picture with me. She's like you like one though,that girl ( implying Katie) told me. haha. I saw Ritchey there who used to go to Schuyler. He was doing pretty well. On one of the 2 slowish songs they played, I danced with a boy from there. It was fun just to get dressed up one night and dance with a bunch of people. As we were leaving, Kaci has a no key lock on her door but the code wouldn't work so we were locked out. James, Justin, and a few other people stayed back to wait with us inside the youth building. We got to talk a bunch. Triple A finally got there and unlocked and we came back. Sean and Lauren came and wanted me to play a game with them but I told them I was probably going to bed soon and now Carrie and Dalton are in here chatting for a few minutes. Well good night! I have a full afternoon of studying and reading in my future. Yay me not.

White House

Happy Friday!Today has been a gurreat day! It was gorgeous outside when I went to Studio. I was so worried that the professor wasn't going to like my photo but he actually did not have anything bad to say. :D I went and worked out with Katie. I felt so good after swimming yesterday and even better after the work out. Since I was meeting Dana at the Studio at noon, I didn't have time to eat after working out. Our shoot when pretty well. I remembered to check my camera out and then came back to the room. I ate lunch and then Katie and I were off to Independence. However we only got several minutes away before I realized I left my camera in the room and Kaitlin was heading to her dad's so I met her and got it. I really need prayer for my memory because I keep forgetting things. I still can't find my Studio book and I need that. I called Trish and talked to her about SOMO stuff on the way. Katie and I had a really fun trip to Independence. Sometimes its just nice to get away with one of your best friends. We went to the mall and shopped. We ended up only buying stuff at Bath and Body because we both had a gift card. Katie even got me to try a dress on in this one store. I found a purple prom dress at DEB that I loved and I wanted to buy it just for the heck of it. We ate at Noodles and Company after. It was pretty good and the leftovers tasted just as good at 9pm. We went to Englewood after for Third Fridays so I could take pictures of the art walk for Editorial. It was a bunch of cute little businesses. We ended our trip by going to Gordman's and Target. I only bought a bowl so that I could cook stuff in my room.Katie learned that I am not a great city driver. We saw 12 cops also. Here is my facebook status about her tonight: watching 13 going on 30 with my crazy, flower killing, Independence Center shopping,noodles and company,Look a Blue house! wonderful,just like a sister to me, friend Katie Drennan! This is her comment:I couldn't agree more creeper, bad driver (in the city) omsghhh A PURPLE DRESS!!! :) 1 cop 2 cops 12 cops!! Sister!! do you see this guy he has been on my tail for the last like 2 stop lights lol. These are both completely accurate as to on the way to Englewood she kept telling me about the houses instead of reading the directions for me,thus the reason why we missed the right street the first time. She was like look at that house,it looks like the white house! Then she was like look at that blue house so I was going to start calling her blue house. Her's about was true to because I kept thinking the guy behind me was following me then I was complaining how much he was on my tail. She also kept making fun of me because I would check to make sure I had my keys on me before I locked the door. I told her she wouldn't be laughing if we got locked out. When we got back we watched 13 going on 30. I talked to Ashley and congratulated her on winning Courtwarming queen! I talked to my momma for a bit. Now I am going to do my bible reading and go to bed.Good night!

Brocolli Amish Casket

47 minutes till Friday! It has been an interesting and pretty good Thursday.I got up and went to Ecology this morning. It was extremely boring and it was hard not to fall asleep. I went to P.R. afterwards. People took longer then the class period to look over our rough drafts. At 12:15 I like to be out of there so it was hard to be patient while people finished. I went and ate lunch with my friends.Then I came back to the room and messed around with my camera,worked some on a powerpoint for editorial and then took a nap. I had a lot more I was going to do but a nap was better. Kaitlin, Justin, Meghan and I went and played Racquetball at the Multi. The entrance to the room was a tiny door that you had to duck under to get into. It was a little dangerous playing with four people but it was still fun. I accidentally hit Justin in the face with a ball. Don't worry there is no bruise. When we got done playing, Justin left and we went swimming. The water felt so good. I have missed the smell of chlorine so much. After we got done swimming, we went and ate Todd with the others even though they were already done eating when we made it. We came back to the room and I skyped with Ashley for a while. Jesse,Trevor, Justin,Russ, Kaci,Kaitlin,Nora,Lauren,Carrie,Crystal and I played Telestrations again. It was so much fun again. Carrie got brocolli and it some how turned into Amish casket. It is definitely my favorite game right now. I got my Valentine's day card from Mom and Dad today. Tomorrow is actually going to be a pretty busy day because I am working in the studio in the afternoon, then Katie and I are going to Independence so I can take pictures for class and we can go shopping. I did my bible reading. Now I am off to bed. Good night!

Almonds can be milked?

It's Wednesday so its almost Friday! This week is actually going by quick. It never fails that when I think I can go to sleep early, someone comes in but thats ok I love my friends :). This morning I went to Studio. I came back and watched Jane by  Design. Katie and I went and worked out when her class got over. 4 weeks till Spring Break so we are going be looking great by then. After working out, I came back and ate the other half of my sub from last night. I went to Race, Class and Gender even though I wish I could just skip it the rest of the semester especially after today's class. We got on the topic of people with intellectual disabilities. Basically this kid thought it was ok to use the r-word and call even his own brother who has autism one and I informed that that was not. The discussion got a little heated and he basically told me I was wasting my time. After being so angry of his remarks to me, I went to small group where those girls always make my day. We did not get to play with puppies for service week but we got cookies and handed them out to strangers in the union and told them to have a good day. It was a lot of fun and we ended the service day by going to Morgan's room and wishing her a happy birthday.By the way Morgan, HAPPY BIRTHDAY again!On the way back over, we filled a walmart sack with snow. We couldn't decide what to do with the snow. I left to go to Grinstead and Kaci threw the bag of snow. I started to walk away but there was a professor there and he looked angry so I picked it up so they didn't get in trouble. I worked on my photo assignment for a bit and then came back to my room until dinner. I ate dinner with my friends and then we went over to CCH for the Show-me formal meeting. DIG was really good tonight as always. I love Song of Hope even if we sang it super fast.After CCH, we had some time to kill before Walmart so Justin came up and hung out in my room for a bit. Ashley texted me and she thinks she, Liz, and Jac will get to visit next weekend. I am so excited to see them!Justin, Sean, Trevor, Jessie, Krystal, Molly, Haley and I went to walmart. The girls in one vehicle, boys in the other. There wasn't anything amazing left on the Valentine's day sale. I bought some jelly beans since they had the Easter candy out already lol. We were looking at milk and Justin was like "almond milk is really good, did you know they actually milk the almonds?" He tried to convince us that you could milk rice and almonds to make milk.We left and came back here. Now I am going to finish my bible reading then go to bed. Good night!

Valentine's day does not fall on a Thursday

Happy Valentine's day! I really not could have asked for a better day. This morning I did not go to Ecology because I did not care to learn about Evolution some more. Kaitlin and I went to chocolate extravaganza in ellis. Such a healthy breakfast lol.I went to P.R. afterwards. I actually liked class today because I got to spend the whole hour working on my press release for SOMO. I went and ate lunch with my friends after.I came back to my room and put Valentine's day in, vacuumed the floor and did my bible reading. I went to Editorial. He let us out an hour early so I got to come back and finish Valentine's day with Kaitlin and Meghan. Mom called me so we got to talk for a bit.  We watched the Time Traveler's Wife after. I did my reading for small group. It was time to leave to go to the movie.Kailtin, Kelsey, Meghan, Morgan, Molly, Katie and I all went. We bought our tickets in advance since we heard that the Vow had been sold out in previous days. The theater wasn't to packed when we got there but soon filled up. They have dollar snacks on Tuesdays which rocks. The Vow was pretty good. We were kind of annoyed because they did not expand on certain parts but I would see it again. I did not think it was tear worthy. After the movie was over Katie, Morgan and I all rode together so we went to Wal-Mart. Katie said she had to get a bouncy ball and I was thinking a quarter  machine one but no Katie went to the back of  Wal-Mart to get one out of the ball cage. Morgan and I then explained to her the difference and that that was not a bouncy ball. Applebees had a 20 minute wait so we went to Subway. These creepy guys came and kind of worried us since we were the only ones in there besides the employees. We got done eating and left. Katie got a text from Russ and Justin saying they were bringing her something so she hurried back. I came back to my room and was about to watch Glee when I got some visitors at the door. Russ,Justin, Nathan Purvis and another guy came and brought me a rose and a card. It was from their CCH small group and they were trying to spread God's love. It was so sweet and I think God for their little reminder of it tonight. Justin, Russ and I talked for like an hour. Then I watched Glee that I missed earlier. It was a really good episode! Today was wonderful and for the first time in a few weeks, I am not stressed at if tomorrow is going to be to chaotic or not.well Good night!

The chrysanthemum?

Happy Monday!After two crappyish weeks in a row, I was determined to start this week off better. I awoke with the crowd outside covered in snow and it was still falling. Unfortunately I still had class this morning but I didn't mind to bad. I went to the writing center after class to have my paper looked over then came back to the room. I took my photography quiz and did some YAC things. Kaitlin and I went to lunch with the others. We found out that snow was packing snow so we threw snowballs at each other. At 1 Dana and I did our studio assignment. It actually went quicker than I thought and thank goodness she was there to help me. I left to go to Race, Class, Gender since I had to turn in my paper. I get to class however and no paper. I immediately start panicking and realize my paper is in my notebook in the studio. I am so thankful that my teacher let me bring it to her after class though. I walked over to Ward Edwards for class but found out it was cancelled. On the way there, some boys were having a snow ball fight and trying to use me as a fort. I came back to the room and Up was on so I watched it and worked on my press release. Monsters Inc came on so Justin came up and watched it with me. We all went and ate supper at our normal time. Katie, Lauren,Justin and Sean all had arm wrestling competitions at dinner. After we ate we went out on the UCC field and played in the snow. It was so a blast throwing snowballs at each other,making snow angels and a snow man. After being outside for a while, we came in and drank some hot cocoa. Kaitlin got Titanic from the library so she, Russ, Justin and I watched it. Some mystery person left us little treats on the door. It was a piece of tissue paper tied with a ribbon,glitter on the inside and then chocolate kisses. Thank you mystery stranger! P.s. we got glitter everywhere from those things.While watching the Titanic we were commenting on how Jack made the wrong move and that's why he died in the end. When they were taking the life boats to the new ship. Justin's like do you know what that is called. I was like the Carpathia duh and Kaitlin was like the chrysanthemum? lol we had to much fun watching that movie. I also beat Justin at Words with Friends just saying. I talked to Ashley some who happens to be a courtwarming queen candidate. I'm so proud of my best friend!I did some of my bible reading but am probably going to finish it now. Today has been a good day and tomorrow should be to as it is Valentine's day.Good night all!

200th blog post

Wow I can't believe I have consistently blogged 200 times. Today has been a really good Sunday. I got up and went to church with Russ and Katie. Kaci met us there. We were listening to Hosanna in the car and I was like, I hope we sing that at church today and we did! We sang Jesus, Lamb of God and the girls sang the chorus while the boys sang the verses. It sounded so cool. The preacher had a great lesson about marriage as well. We came back and ate at Ellis for lunch. Katie came over and watched Breaking Dawn with Kaitlin and I while I typed my paper. We put in Valentine's Day after. I made it half way through but then couldn't keep my eyes open so I fell asleep. I got my paper down and did my bible reading. Russ came in and worked on his homework in here because he was bored downstairs. We went and ate with the others. After dinner, Russ, Kaci, Lauren, Sean, Justin and I watched Tangled! I love that movie! We came back over and I started making Valentine's day mints. They were really sticky so I called mom to see what I was doing wrong and finally got it figured out and I got to talk to my mom for a little bit. They finally got stiff so the heart mold worked. Kaitlin had the Ringer on so I watched it while I was making the mints. I finished the bible reading. Now I am off to bed so I don't start out the week tired. I am determined to make this the best week it can be. Thank goodness I am going to have God there with me the whole way. Good night!

A knight is obviously a prom king

This has been one crazy day. Its had its ups and downs but for the most part it was good. This morning Nora, Katie, Kaitlin, Kaci and I got up and headed to Sedalia to volunteer at the SOMO basketball tournament. We volunteered at the State Fair College. There was not a lot for us to do we handed out medals. We got there right as Kirksville was finishing so I got to see Jared and Dan for a minute. I am so excited that my friends got to see my love of Special Olympics. Andrea was in charge there. Shaffer came and gave me a hard time for a minute. The basketball games were good. This one boy was so funny, when he got his medal he slung his jersey into the stands and gave us all high fives. There was a really cute little boy who bless his heart stood up pretty well to the taller people. I love the volunteer shirts that we got today too. They are different from the usual ones. I am sad that I didn't get to see a lot of the people I know or Schuyler. I think they ended up with a gold and a bronze but I am not for sure. we came back and Katie, Kaitlin and I were going to go play racquet ball in the multi but it was closed so we went and played badminton in the rec. We had a good time playing. After we went to red box to get Breaking Dawn. We went and ate at Todd with the others for dinner. We were going to go to a movie at 7:15 but Kaci's friend wanted to go to the later one. Since everyone was in my room, we decided to play Telestrations. It was so much fun and it was hilarious what we would start with and then end up with. Someone drew a knight and Russ said it was a prom king because it had a sash. We told Jauan he was lazy for taking the elevator down so he and Harris were trying to figure out if Kaitlin or I said it. To escape them we hurried down the steps outside. We got in the car and we around the round about to pick up Russ on the way back and they stood in the middle of the road, trying to open the car doors which scared us. Kaci, Kaitlin, Katie, Nora, Liz, Justin, Lauren, Sean, Russ and I all went and saw the Chronicle. I don't know how to describe it. It wasn't bad but it made me motion sick because they whole thing was filmed from looking through a video camera lense. The guy in front of me also didn't help because he smelt like smoke so bad. We came back to the room and I did my bible reading. Now I am off to bed so I am not tired for church. I have a long afternoon ahead of me tomorrow because my computer shut off all of a sudden tonight and erased my whole paper :(. Not that the paper was great to begin with because I don't have enough oppression in my life to write about for 4 pages. Well here's praying for a much better week this week. Good night!

Sharks are mean

Happy Friday! This morning I got up and went to Studio. The professor's computer wasn't working so I thought we might get to leave early but we went downstairs to the lab and critiqued. I went back to the room. I heard Kaitlin wake up so to be a creeper, I stood on the bed and looked over the bar at her. Katie and I went and worked out. We went and ate with the others at lunch. We decided to go to Those Were the Days. We walked around and looked everything. They have sooo much stuff there. There was a beanie baby rabbit that somehow kept managing to get in Katie's basket and really wanted to go home with her but she wouldn't buy it. I was really tempted to. Downstairs they have so much furniture that is like a photographer's prop dream and an interior designer's dream. Katie ended up buying cookie cutters for a project and I bought a basket for a project. We went to Wal-Mart after. When I got back I washed my bedding. I was going to pick up my camera earlier that I had reserved but it was too early. When I remembered to get it, it was 4 already so it was too late. I was pretty bummed that I forgot but I guess I will just have to get it next weekend. The Princess Diaries was on so that was pretty exciting and also got a good grade on my second photo assignment :D. I worked on my paper while watching Spongebob. This is probably one of the papers that I have ever had to write even though its about because its about oppression and I can't think of like any times I personally have been oppressed for my race, class or gender that will last four pages. Kaitlin got back and we went to eat with the others. When we got back, she, Katie, Russ and I watched Something Borrowed in between doing laundry. Tonight was the first time since I'ved lived in UCC that I actually had to wait on a washer. Katie, Kaitlin and I watched Final Destination 5 and I made pudding in my room that my sister gave me.  We watched Shark Night after which was kind of freaky.So many sharks! I did the dishes. We watched some pick up line videos lol so of course I had to text some of them to Justin since we like to make fun of them. I did my bible reading and played some words with friends. Katie is staying the night in her old room with us tonight. Tomorrow will be fun because the three of us and Nora and Kaci are volunteering at the SOMO bball tourney in Sedalia. Well good night!

Thursdays are so bad

1 hours and 21 minutes till Friday!Don't you love my countdowns. This morning I got up and went to Ecology. It was boring as usual. I then went to Public Relations which is getting better because the teacher is joking around with us more and it doesn't seem as hard. After class I went and ate lunch with my friends. They were celebrating black history month by serving waffles and chicken which we had no idea was a black culture thing. I came back to my room and organized my closet, played Zumba for a few minutes then was lazy for awhile. Dalton came in here and hung out. I was going to take a nap when he left but couldn't fall asleep so I worked on my paper some. I walked over to CCH with Kaci to work on decorations for the formal but by the time people got there we couldn't stay very long. I came back and I tried to work on my paper some and then went to Todd with the others for dinner. After we ate we were going to watch a movie so we went to the library to look for Tangled but they didn't have it. We ended up going to the Union and renting Contagion. Russ,Justin, Kaci, Lauren, Crystal and I watched it in my room. Kaitlin watched it with us for a bit until she had to leave. The movie wasn't to bad until the end then that part was not good. After the movie was over it was just Kaci, Russ,Justin and I hanging out in my room talking. We walked Kaci back to Ellis and then took the movie back. Russ got to talk to my mom about cats then I got to talk to my mom. Justin decided that he was going to be a crazy dog man and I was going to be a crazy cat lady and we were going to have houses right next door to each other like Gnomeo and Juliet hehe. Now Kaitlin and I are watching He's Just Not that Into You. I am probably going to do my bible reading pretty soon as well. Random note of the day:Our light burned out in our bathroom so we are using a lamp until the bulb is replaced lol. You might be a college student if... Well good night!

Life can be worthwhile if you smile

It's Wednesday which means the week is almost over. This morning started out really not great by my alarm not going off so I almost was late to class. I wasn't feeling great either. I made it to Studio, and the professor did a demo for us. After class I came back to my room until I went to work out with Katie. We had a good work out and got to talk while we rode bikes. I ate in my room since I missed lunch. I missed Jane by Design last night so I caught up on it today. My P.R. professor sent us our reading so I started doing that. Then at 2 I went to Race,Class and Gender where we pretty much talked about the same thing as always. I had small group after. I love talking with those girls. They always make my day better. We are only on the 3rd chapter of Captivating and I already love it. After small group, I came back and read more on P.R. Justin scared me when I came out of the bathroom by standing in my door way. Katie came right behind him and scared him back. We went and ate at our usual time. After dinner Katelyn D., Kaci and I walked over for our CCH meeting. I had Sean M.'s id because Nora gave it to me to give it back to him at supper so I had to leave my meeting and run it to him. CCH was pretty good tonight. We talked about smelling like Christ. If you are confused by that statement you can look in 2 Corinthians. I don't remember the verse. We walked by back and then Kaitlin and I just hung around her. I notice that even more lately people have a lot of hurt with their relationships and just in their lives and I want to pray for them. I am constantly worrying for no reason this semester about time and grades. I know the semester isn't half over and things are going to change but I am already stressing on my grades. I built myself up to a standard first semester and I am afraid of not keeping it this semester. I could use your prayers as well that I just breathe because God has his hands on everything. I have a song tonight for all those with sadness, its smile that they sang on glee. Then just another song that's been on my mind is I am free. I did my bible reading and finished my P.R. reading. I took out the trash and did my dishes.Now its time for me to go to bed. Tomorrow is going to be a good day because I am done with classes at lunch and have the afternoon to myself. Well its going to be a date with a paper so not wonderful but not bad. Good night!

Much Better Tuesday

Last night was a very interesting night. All the drawing and design students were working in the art center till really late. Kaitlin texted me to tell me she was going to be awhile so I left the light and tv on and went to bed. After midnight she still wasn't back so I turned off the main light and left a smaller one on for her. After that I was dead to the world for awhile. I woke up at 4 and looked at my phone noticing that I had missed a call from Kaitlin and a message. I still had her key on my key ring from the weekend so she couldn't get in the building. For some reason I woke up again at 7 so I shut the light off and tv and went back to sleep till I had to get up for Ecology. I went and took my test. When I walked in I thought I saw Lauren M. sitting so I went to sit by her. I noticed she only had one spot left on one side which I figured Sean was sitting in so I went to sit on the other side.That's when I noticed it wasn't Lauren but it looked an awful lot like her. Sean came a few minutes after me and thought he was sitting by Lauren until he noticed it was a different lady. The test wasn't to bad. When I got done, Sean, Lauren and I went and ate breakfast at Ellis. I went to P.R. afterwards.I had to today especially since I was the discussion leader. It was very awkward and thank goodness the teacher helped me out some. I went and ate lunch with my friends after. I came back to my room and took a nap until Editorial. Class started late today since he had a meeting. We did an exercise on on camera flash which was fun. After class, I came back and was going to read but got distracted talking to Kaitlin about a bunch of random things. At 6 we drove over to Todd and ate with the others. Justin tormented me with mustard. We came back and watched Glee.We even got Justin to watch it with us and of course it would be the weirdest episode of the season. After Glee the others left and Morgan and I watched New Girl and chatted some. She left and then Dalton hung out in my room for awhile shooting the nerve gun off of everything lol. I read for my small group tomorrow and then did my bible reading for today. I tried working with slow shutter speed on my camera again. I am so excited that on Friday, I get to check out a Nikon that is nicer then the one I have. I thought about checking out a nice Canon but then I would have to check out a lense to which I might eventually. I am so glad that today was way better. The week can only get better from here. I am wasted to much time today in a poke war with Kaci and Derrick and playing Words with Friends that I was trying to get away from. Well good night!

Enough with the Mondays

I don't ever remembering Mondays being this bad last semester.The bad thing is I still have 11 of them left to go before summer. I slept awful last night and then woke up to go to studio this morning. I was dropping everything. After studio I talked to the professor about my assignment. Apparently my photo didn't save with the copyright so my grade couldn't change :( but I at least know what to do next time. I went and had my meeting with the Rhd. It took longer for me to get down the stairs to her office then it took to actually be in the meeting. It was really dumb and she made me sign a paper that said I got a warning and then it was over. I came back upstairs to take my photo quiz and type my questions for P.R. I hit my head on the bunk bed 3 times just this morning if that tells you about my day. Kaitlin and I went and ate lunch with the rest of our friends. I came back and took an hour and 15min long nap that was much needed. Kaci, Shelli and I went to Wal-Mart afterwards. I was a very bad kid today and skipped Race,Class and Gender but I knew as tired as I was that it would be so hard to stay awake. She warned us at the beginning of the semester what she would if we fell asleep and I didn't think I could add another thing to the list of a great monday. According to Molly,it ended up being a good choice because all they did was fight over the discussion. I studied for Ecology when I got back from Wal-Mart. Liz came and hung out before supper and then we went and ate. After dinner, Lauren, Sean and I studied in Molly's room and Justin quizzed us. It was a little hard to study with everyone because every now and then one of us would get side tracked and we all study at different paces. I came back upstairs and studied for awhile. I did my bible reading. Now I am off to bed. I will be able to breathe a little easier tomorrow after my test and P.R. class as the discussion leader are over.Good night!

Super Bowl Sunday

So its many Americans favorite day of the sports season-Super Bowl Sunday although I didn't have a youth group party like normal and there was no team I was excited about watching so this day meant nothing. In fact Karen Dye said yesterday that the Mizzou/Ku game was her Super Bowl and I would agree. Zack and Zoe wasted no time being awake this morning go figure on the day I am trying to sleep in. I made my family give me until at least 9 to get up. We went to church. When we got back I talked to Shaffer and ate lunch. Grandpa came over and brought me raspberry pie-yum! I didn't bring any back with me which I might regret because I am still working on trying to make to whole beach body thing happen lol. I got my stuff packed up, said my goodbyes and headed out. I stopped by and hung out with Ashley for a few minutes and then was on my way. I stopped at Wal-Mart to cash a check then to the burg I came. There weren't as many people as I figured that would be here at 5:30. I went downstairs to the Sober Bowl and ate some delicious food. I watched the beginning of the game with Russ and Justin. Sean came and watched for a little bit. Someone's child was there and she was so amused my our cell phones and extremely cute. the game was not great if I might add. Madonna was alright but she really should of hung of the singing days a long time ago. The boys and I left to go to CCH for a meeting and the patriots were ahead but we learned that the giants did when. When got Kaci and Lauren and went over. President Ambrose was at the meeting so that CCH could talk about doing the Something To Eat program with the whole campus (you package the food and send it places like Africa, one package contains 6 meals in it). The meeting went well and the results should be amazing to come. I came back and started reading for P.R. Kaitlin came back. I studied for Ecology some.Now I am going to go to bed as tomorrow is Monday. Praying for a much stress free week compared to last week for everyone. I know that I am going to need God's help to achieve everything I need to.Good night!

All smiles here

I could not be smiling more right now as Mu just beat Ku and it has been a great day! This morning I went and picked up Casen. He was all smiles from the moment he got here. He has changed so much from just a month ago, talking so much more and doing more things. I love when Scout was in and he would say hey kitty or when he was coughing during lunch and he kept saying bless you after each one. He played with his toys all morning and I played cars with him.He even was in a good mood to pose for pictures. After lunch, he took a nap and I watched an old family video from 1994-95 meaning I was 2 years old in it. It was so funny seeing the whole family and what we used to look like. I learned that I was not lady like, always laying on the floor in a dress trying to hold my legs and that walk mans were the hot item to get. No matter who much the age difference,everyone still seems the same. The video does make me a little sad though because my grandpa Antal and grandma cox were both alive in it. I did however get to recapture that great day with them again. It was nice to see all my siblings and I living in the same house again. I took a little nap after and then Jess called to finish making arrangements about getting the kids. Casen got up from his nap and Grandpa Cox came over. I went and got the kids and saw my sister. Mom put in Hachi which is a dog movie-that right there tells you its going to be sad and it was. Jon and Lyndsi came and got Casena and Grandpa left. Dad made us pork steak for supper which was way better then Ellis dining food. I watched the rest of my Ecology slideshow while watching Transformers. The game came on so I kept checking the score on my computer while trying to do other things. If you were here, you would probably hear me yelling at my computer randomly. I have to admit that I doubted the tigers for a minute but they proved me wrong. I am so happy they won to keep those Ku fans quiet for a little bit. Now I am going to go to bed hopefully pretty quick but I still need to do some bible reading.Good night! My goal for this week is to not worry about every little thing. It's in God's hands!

An appropriate ending for the week

So you would think since its Friday,it has to be a good day.Let's just say that half of this day matched how the rest of the week went. I went to Studio. It was raining and my professor did not love my assignment. :( but whatevs I was only concerned with getting home where it is not so stressful. I got gas and then headed on my way. I stopped at Burger King in Macon, thinking I could use my bk gift card but nope their machines were done so I had to pay with cash. I am starting think this card does not want to be used. My phone battery wasn't holding much of a charge anymore so I went to U.S. Cellular in Kirksville and got a new one. I saw Mrs. Brush (my freshman english teacher) there. It is a ritual for my dad to make me pork steak while I am home so I stopped at Western's on my way and got some.I finally made it to the school to see mom. I talked to some other people there and then came home. I let Scout in the house and she and I just laid around watching Friends. Dad got home from work and the mom did. I looked to see if my professor posted our photo grades and he did. I didn't do so great but I am going to get that fixed hopefully when I get back since he said I didn't do one thing worth 10 points when I can prove it that I did. I did not let that bring me down. I headed to Putnam to see Brett play in the drumline and walked in right on time. The drumline was amazing if I might add. They played in the dark with little lights on the gloves they wore. Then I watched the basketball game with the Tade's. We left early because their wasn't much of the game left and Putnam was winning. After I got home I tried on some of my old snowball dresses to see which one I want to wear to the semi-formal for the show me youth home since apparently people get really dressed up for it. I could still fit in my 8th grade graduation dress which was exciting not because I think I got huge or anything just because I thought I was alot taller since then. My grandpa gave me 3 more old cameras that are so cool. I am not sure what they all are,one I know is a film crank Kodak. I did my bible reading and now I am probably going to bed since I get to go pick up nephew in the morning :).Please say a prayer tonight for a player from Newtown who was taken to the hospital tonight after falling in the game. Update nothing is broken but still need prayers for quick healing. I know that a lot of people are feeling hurt or have just been discouraged from the last week so please pray for them and for myself to with my classes.Thanks! Well good night!

Dont Stress,dont stress,dont stress

Last night I worked on my packet for a while and then finally decided to go to bed and finish it this morning. I remembered as I was going to sleep that we were supposed to shoot in raw for our photo assignments so I was slightly freaking out about having to reshoot the assignment. I finally let it go and went to sleep. This morning I got up and I got to sleep in since Ecology was cancelled. I finished my pr assignment and then went to class. We ended up only doing like 2 problems off the assignment :/. After class, I went and ate lunch with my friends. I went and put my photo assignment on the server and had another panic when I thought my sd card was broke eliminating all my photos including my assignments because one of the pieces was bent. I came back and stuck it in my computer and it worked fine. I copied everything off of it just in case. I read some for Editorial then took a nap. When I woke up I watched Friends. Kaitlin got back from class and her friend Meghan came over. We had a great discussion of what felafel actually was and the use of twitter. I went and ate dinner at Todd with my friends at 6 like normal. I had some time to kill before we were meeting to go to the rec so I started watching Jane by Design. Russ, Justin and I went to the rec to play basketball with Katie but there ended up being no courts open so we worked out instead. The boys would not do the ab workout though lol. Russ was bored when we got back so he and I watched the Little Mermaid,great movie as always! I talked to Ashley for a few minutes. Now I am going to take a quiz and then probably go to bed so that I am not tired for the drive home.It has been a crazy long week! I will leave you with this quote. "Faith in God includes Faith in his timing" which has been extremely true for me lately.Good night!

Time

Its Wednesday which means we are that much closer to Friday.Only 1 class tomorrow and one Friday and I will be on my way home. I am so tired that I could fall asleep right now but my professor surprised me with an assignment due tomorrow so I will be working on that for a little bit. Thank goodness I checked my mail tonight or I would have shown up to class empty handed. This morning I got up and went to Studio. I came back after class and read some. Katie and I went and worked at 11. I biked 3 miles instead of running. We went and afterwards. I came back and would love to have slept by nope didn't have time before I was off to Race,Class and Gender. I had to take my photo props with me since Amanda and I were shooting as soon as I was done with my last class. Race,Class and Gender was sooo boring. I met here in Grinstead and we got to work.It ended up taking about 2 hours for the 2 assignments, so glad I was done by 6. I came back to my room and called mom. I told her about getting into the Honors College which I am not sure if I am going to do yet. I went to supper with my friends. After dinner, we went straight over to CCH since we had a show me meeting before. DIG was really good and I am glad I didn't miss it. Justin was playing drums tonight so Katie wrote on a paper and we held it up at him while he was practicing before it started. On one side it said we love the drummer and the other side said booo. He just rolled his eyes at us. CCH is taking a grow trip to Joplin in May and I am thinking about going.It doesn't cost alot and it would be nice to give back to Joplin. We went and ate at late night after CCH. Then I came back here and read for P.R. Now I am going to work on the assignment. It has been a long day and I can't wait for less tiring Thursday. If you need a pick up, here are 3 great worship songs that I love! -Song of Hope, At Your Name, and Not to Us :). Good night!
