time...

...is going so quickly this semester. i feel like i am sitting still but it is speeding by. i'm sick this week. but it's sort of nice to rest a little. and thankfully i have time.

i got to help cook supper at a home nearby tonight. nathaniel, ben, and i are on the wednesday night team with another girl from class who couldnt be there tonight. we had fun making spaghetti and garlic bread and eating it with the people there. it was good.

tomorrow is opening night for our winter play. i'm really excited to go see it. my mentor is directing so i'm especially excited for this one.

i got to journal today. i'm working on doing that more this year. i bought a new journal and its brown with buttons all over it...so cute. it makes journaling more fun. and i'm finding it's a better way for me to pray too. i focus better if i'm walking or writing while i pray i think. especially walking. but writings a good alternative during the winter i think.

i'm learning to go to bed earlier this semester. my roommate is teaching so she goes to bed just after 10 now. i'm trying to be in bed not much after that too. i figure there's no real reason for me to stay up later and it's good to learn discipline to wake up in the morning probably. but wow i'm feeling old and not fun-college-studenty...going to bed at 11. don't tell.

alright. time to go be productive. goodnight world.

weekend plans

so i just read through some old posts on here. it makes me glad that i blogged cuz i've already forgotten a lot of stuff that happened. at the same time i feel a little ridiculous reading them. i've changed a lot...that's a good thing...but it's funny to see how different i was. it's kind of encouraging too because sometimes i just think of changes as bad things, but it seems like i've grown up a lot since i started writing. i wonder how long it will be til i look back and think the same thing about this post.

its a good weekend. the girls and i went to the boys' house for aldi's pizza (mmm) and freedom writers on the big screen =). and today lot's of families are coming to school...i think that's one of my favorite parts of college...the way we all get to share each others families. and i'm going to visit a church with my urban class...that'll be good too. i'm not used to being at services that are quite that long but i'm excited to see what it's like. and i'm going to see a senior theatre project, and i'm going to my first basketball game of the year! and i may even get to go swimming.

the snow is melting. the day is relaxing. the homework needs to be done. happy saturday!

hello!

hello blogging world. it's my last year at college. my last semester actually. so i thought it would be a good time to remember. and a good time to update you all about. so i'm back to the blog =).

classes are good and not too busy yet. we had a snow day yesterday! i went sledding and got to spend time with the family i babysit. it's nice to be in a real house with a real family every once in awhile.

now that i've spent my afternoon making my blog pretty it's time to do real work. hope you're enjoying all this snow!
