Goodmorning

So yes... once again i have pulled an all nighter. Im not sure if this helps me study, but i guess we will find out. Its 6:30 am, and im waiting for either the shower to be free or saga to open, whichever comes first. I am hungry, and i will not take a nap without first taking a shower. Study study study, i have never done so many all nighters in one semester. I feel like im floating. I think this may be a bad sign. Well.. the shower is free... then its off to saga then to bed for a nice nap before Exercise Phys final at 9:45 and Animal Phys at 12:45 thats a lot of physiology, but at least then they will be over! please pray for me as i am scared to death of taking these exams!! AHHHH

I just cant stop smiling

One Week! One Week!

This week has definatey been one of the hardest at LU. I was able to get sleep, but not a large amount. I have made it to Thursday. I even signed offline this whole week until now, so i could work. Now that is dedication. I finally realized how much time i waste on AIM. I should sign off more often.

Anyway, after waking up today, i realized that i have ONE WEEK until i am home. You have no idea how much joy this brings me. I cant stop smiling.
One Week Until:
I see snow
I eat REAL GOOD seafood :)
I can cook
I can see my family
I can see my friends
I can play with my cats
I can snowboard
I can ride my horse
I can make a superhot fire in the fireplace and tick off my parents :)
Be brain dead, and its ok
I can read books that i want to
I can finish my painting
I can play the piano
I can drive the jeep
I can go ice skating
I can play hockey... in my driveway :)
Well, you get the picture

:-D

Its been quite the week, but now its almost over. God is really good! For those of you still stressin about school, hang in there. It will be over soon :)

Post-its and Pens

I hate this time of the semester. My mind becomes void of all rational thought, and i feel like im brain dead. I really have nothing important to post about, but i felt like i should at least say something. I have all of the rest of my homework sitting out on my planner. Thats scary, but somehow comforting. In less than two weeks i will be sitting at home in the snowy mountains sitting by the fireplace and playing with my cats. I love home, but i am learning to love texas for what it is. My mind is blank. This time of the semester it seems to hard for me to just do homework, even the smallest task seems hard to finish... XEW

I like listening to radio on the internet. go 102.1 the edge from dallas!

Quizilla again

I have way too much stuff to do, yet i am on quizilla... here be the results... they are pretty interesting


Accedintally, you will find them, in the last place
you would expect, may be they are near you
right now and you don't know, you love to have
a good time that is why the chances that you
and them be friends first than get in a
romantic relationship is very high, so open
your eyes and think, it might be so close.

the fact that she is vain and selfish. She is
a nice person, when she IS actually using her
magic, her powers are great, and she is very
helpful. Well that's most of the tings about
the snow fairy, can you relate to some of them?
You probably can, because that is what this

Give me my money back....

I am not in a good mood today. People are stupid. I always feel guilty when im in a bad mood. Because i dont think i should be in bad moods. Usually i just go to bed, so i dont say things i shouldnt. Well, i didnt do that today. I dont make good decisions when im in a bad mood either. Like asking to hang out with people i shouldnt in times of bad moods... you get the picture.. Anyway.. great song to listen to when in a bad mood... Ben Folds Five on the Naked Baby Photo's album. Its called Song for the Dumped. Its great.. Today my roommate made me listen to classical music to calm me down. It really works well.. classical music is a great thing.

Animal phys is a sucky class. I do not like it, i do not like it at all. It is hard, and frustrating, and stupid. Too much work, pointless work, that makes me very unhappy.

I need to cheer up. Thanks to my friends who cheer me up just by being nice. I love you guys, i really do, i dont think i could make it through school without you. you make me smile

Haha.. good thing happened today. "Beer Goggles" no, im not talking about actually getting drunk. In solheim are goggles that you can wear that simulate drunkeness.. what fun. They intertained me for quite some time. yay for beer goggles :)

Ive been reading through proverbs, ive found lots of great stuff.. some challenging, some that just make you go.. hummm....

this on i especially like, so challenging. I wish i could follow this one better:
Proverbs 24:17-18
Do not rejoice when your enemy falls,
and do not let your heart be glad when he stumbles;
Or the Lord will see it and be displeased,
And turn His anger away from him.

this one is just interesting:
Proverbs 23: 1-3
When you sit down to dine with a ruler
Consider carefully what is before you,
And put a knife to your throat
If you are a man of great appetite.
Do not desire his delicacies,
For it is deceptive food.

Finally:
Do not let your heart envy sinners,
But live in the fear of the Lord always.
Surely there is a future,
And your hope will not be cut off.
Listen, my son, and be wise,
And direct your heart in the way.
Do not be with heavy drinkers of wine,
Or with gluttonous eaters of meat;
For the heavy drinker and the glutton will come to poverty,
And drowsiness will clothe one with rags.

Dozing Off...

Well, tonight i tried my hardest to see how late i could stay up. I was tired at 9:30, pathetic i know. After a trip to MSC, and a great sound system later, i returned to my room to watch a movie with Janeil, who had just gotten off of work. We start Elf at 1:00am. It gets to be about 2:30am when the movie is at the climax, the main punch of the story i guess and Santa is running away from the Park Rangers and he needs the spirit of Christmas to run his sleigh. Without belief and spirit from people he cannot fly his sleigh and the rangers will get him. It may be that im very tired, but it reminded me of how glad i am that Jesus doesnt need us to believe in Him for Him to function. He is beyond that. Now granted, there are some serious consequences if we do not follow Him, but He doesnt need us, we need Him. I thought that was cool. Profoundness as i was dozing off...

I also remembered tonight the stark contrast between now and three years ago. Three years ago tonight i was praying that God would save me and that i wouldnt die as i was blind and gripping a trash can. Tonight i was spending time with great friends who truely care about me, and like spending time with me. I was thanking God for His amazing grace, and how much He has given me that i do not deserve. God is amazing, I am alive, I am so alive.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Birthday Dad, i love you :-D

Well, now that it is 3:30, i am throughly convinced that i am a huge wimp. I cant do all nighters. Kudos to those who can! This weekend i will be in Dallas visiting friends, but i'll be back on saturday at some point. Im so glad my parents are here. It makes for a really great weekend. Now, i can really doze off...

Weekend Fun

Well, i dont have much to say except for the LSM retreat was fun!! I got pictures of the weekend, and some other random stuff, since i really dont have much to say on this post.

Way away away from here ill be....

Well, i decided to take a break from my riviting paper on the evolution of early tetrapods to write a post. oh boy. you are all special now.

Janeil and i are officially nerds now. We decided that for the heck of it, we were gonna give our cat an autopsy to figure out why it was put down. So basically, we didnt need to go to Glaske and do this, but we wanted to. And it made us happy and excited. yes, that declairs nerdyness.

Note to whitney, in the past 24 hours, i have taken 3 showers...

If you guys go to LU you know that it is time to register for classes. My classes go as follows for all those that care:

MWF
8:15 - Elementary Statistics
9:20 - General Physics I
12:25 - Fitness Testing and Percription
M
2:35 - General Physics Lab

TH
9:20 - Abnormal Psychology

and im goin to Egypt.. its 3 credits of Bible, but there is no official class involved apart from the Spring Break trip there.

Im really excited about my schedule, its gonna be fun. While challenging with lots of math, im lookin forward to it... this could be because im lookin forward to abnormal, or it could be becasue IVAP will be over!!

Things are going well. God is good. My parents will be here TUESDAY!! im so excited!! Jesh will be here on tuesday too!! Tuesday will be one of the greatest days ever!!

My roommate said the greatest thing tonight:
The refrigerator
Is running well
I cleaned her out
So she doesnt smell
(about our "fish/refridgerator")

Hands
If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be We are all ok
And not to worry
Cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these
I wont be made useless
Wont be idle with dispair
I'll wrap myself around my faith
For light does the darkness most fear

I have another prayer request for those interested. My mom called to tell me yesterday that one of my middle school friends was killed the night before. Her name is suzanne. She was with a group of girls who were drinking and driving. She happened to be standing up in the back of a pickup truck, and fell over the edge. To make matters worse, she has a one and a two year old child. Its a very sad situation

Also, another one of my friends from home, Ashley, has a friend Falcon who has dissappeared since Friday. They attend St. Lawrence University in New York. please keep them in your prayers as well.

Well, really positive post, but i really thank you guys for praying. Prayer is so important.

Does anyone have a good picture/verse they would like to see in Stall Wall?? you should let me know! Dont forget to read Stall Wall while you are on campus in the bathrooms!!

Today was a really great day. The weather is nice and warm, and i am happy. Sleep is a great thing! :)

John Donne

So, here i am... Thursday night, reading John Donne's poems, sonnets and meditations for Brit Lit I. He was an interesting writer, but i really like to read it. It makes me think. He was an interesting guy, somehow related to Sir Thomas More, kinda cool. Ok enough of my nerdyness...

I am actually getting caught up and ahead of work due. This is nice. I am able to right now balance everything. And since i am able to balance everything, i think this is a perfect time to spend more of it with the Lord. He has really allowed me to work through things this semester. It has been wonderful. This semester hasnt gone by without its problems and up all night papers, but He has allowed me to meet new people, make new friends, and get out and have some fun! I know im seriously homesick, but my mom said something a few weeks ago that really hit me today in class. She had told me that it wasnt good to be so upset that i was in Texas. God had me here for a reason and i needed to appreciate that, and do what His will is for me here. Today i realized that. God has me here in Texas for whatever reason it is, and so i need to be content. I can miss home, but i shouldnt hate being here, because its where God has me. And Gods will is soo much greater than mine. He has such a larger picture than i do. I can be so selfish sometimes. being in texas has changed my life around so much i can barely even believe it now. If i had stayed home, i would have never changed, and would most likely be dead now. I look at what my old life was, and while on the surface it looks fun and exciting, I can see underneith to the pain and hurt it was. God has me here, He has me safe. He literally saved me from myself. I need to be grateful for what He has done for me. I need to not hate it here, but love it for what it is, and what i have. I deserve to have nothing, but i have met the best friends in the world here, who honesly have my back and will support me all the time. God is amazing, In all my life, i never thought i would be here, so far away. But it is Gods will, so as long as He has me here, i will be content, and not be angry.

Holy Sonnet 14
Batter my hear, three-personed God; for you
As yet but knock, breathe, shine and seek to mend;
That i may rise and stand, o'erthrow me, and bend
Your force to break, blow, burn, and make me new.
I, like an usurped town, to another due,
Labor to admit you, but O, to no end;
Reason, your viceroy in me, me should defend,
But is captived, and proves weak or untrue.
Yet dearly I love you, and would be loved fain,
But am betrothed unto your enemy.
Divorce me, untie or break that knot again;
Take me to you, imprison me, for I,
Except you enthrall me, never shall be free,
Nor ever chaste, except you ravish me.
-John Donne

Dont Talk To Me When Im Tired

I went to bed early last night. It was great. I feel really good today. I got less studying done, but i think i seriously needed the sleep! I get wierd and cranky when im tired.

New season of OC starts today

We have an Intramural Soccer Game tonight. YAY everyone should come watch us play at 7:30!! Its a great day for soccer!! Everyday is a great day for soccer!!

Marianne should be brought home soon, she still has a blood vessel that is very close to bursting in her brain though, so she will continue to be very closely monitered!

Snow Patrol is a really good band. I like them

Another Day, Less Sleep

Well.. sorry about the no posting option recently. Been extremely busy...

Marianne is doing better, she is able to speak, so this means that she is once again concious, and does not have excessive brain damage. So she will survive. I will update again when i know more. Thanks for praying guys!!

Judgement Day went well. I had a blast. It was so much fun! Im almost sad that its over now. It took up a lot of time, but it was so worth it. It really had a great impact on the people that saw it, so I am very thankful for that. It was definately an answer to prayer. However, two days later, and i still have the music from the club scene stuck in my head.. AHHHH!!!! They video taped it, so one of these days, maybe ill actually get to see it. I got a lot of complements of the club scene.. i dont know how to take the, "you make a great drunk skank" complement. Is this a good or a bad thing? Humm... oh well.. fun all around... For those of you who didnt get to see it, you missed out. It was definately a good experience!

I am thanking God massivly for allowing me to finish my paper this weekend. I wrote a Integrated Vertebrate Anatomy and Physiology (IVAP) paper this weekend that was 19 pages long. I got 5 hours of sleep friday and saturday night. Sunday night i didnt sleep, and besides the 5 hours a day for Judgement Day Saturday and Sunday I was workin on this paper. I have never worked so hard at something for so long. Yeah buddy...

P.S. My roommate got a job... but where? no one knows....

Apparantly it is sad that i have never heard of frito pie... what is it anway? Also, i have never heard of mayonnaise on hamburgers. Well i have news for you southern people.. try vineager on your french fries, ketchup on your pasta and eat hash browns with mayonnaise. Then let me know how that goes!

Well now that my paper is done, you may be asking yourself... what is andrea gonna do now with all of her time? the answer is EXAMS. If you would still like to continue to pray for me, please pray that i can focus enough to study for my Exercise Phys Exam (Wednesday) and my IVAP exam (Friday.. which will by the way, kick my butt!!!)

Well.. thats all for now.. Hopefully i will be able to update my blog more regularly now!

Prayer Request

My dads secretairy Marianne was in a car wreck last night. She had two blood vessels burst in her brain (anyursym sp?) Her car rolled. She is now in intensive care/ surgery up in Burlington VT. our largest city, with good medical care. Brain damage will be dependant on how long she waited before care, and how long the blood was in her skull before it was removed. Blood absorbed by the cells causes damage. She has a son, Mark who i graduated with in high school. He is over in Iraq right now. And a daughtor, Stephanie who is going to school up at University of Vermont, also in Burlington. She has a husband too. Please pray for her. It is very serious! Thanks guys. I knew blog posting was the best way for this to be prayed for! I love you guys!

Egrek

Why am i still up? WHY!?!?!

Just a thought... hehehe James 4:9 ... wow... This verse could be taken pretty badly if out of context...



Your beauty is all your own! You don't like to be
the same as everyone else and find that being
unique makes you more attractive. The normal
trends just don't fit you and things are just
more fun when they're upside down. You love to
be the one that turns heads with individuality
and spunkiness. You're kind of beauty, I would
say, could be characterized by your confidence.
Though it's not a physical trait, it
deffinately shows on you. Rock on!(If you can't
see tje pics, go to my homepage and look near
the bottom and find your result)

Turtle Soup....

This weekend was great! I did nothing, and it was everything i knew it could be :) I watched a few movies.. Donnie Darko and Miracle. Both good movies. I recommend Donnie Darko, however, it took me awhile for the ending to really set in. Good movie! Looked up some graduate schools. I guess i gotta do that applying thing by this time next year. Talk about stressful!! Mainly the schools are in Philly and Boston, but there are a couple in NY. They are: Arcadia, Drexel, Bloomsburg University, Penn State, Washington and Jefferson College, Simmons, Mgh INstitiute of Health Professions, Boston University, New York Upstate Medical University, there is apparantly a good school in Albany, NY and I forgot the last one but it is between Albany and NYC. I plan on leaving Texas definatly for grad school. As far as my school is going so far, i should be covering the requirements well.

Mondays ususally suck, but this monday has been pretty good. I've only had one full class so far today. Both Kines courses were either cut very short, or not even held today. Good stuff! Animal phys though, will probably go over, cause it always does. OH well...

So whats everyone doin for fall break? I am staying at good ole LU to work on my comparative morph paper and my exegetical paper. WHOHOO.. fun weekend for me. At least it will be low stress. I wanna go to florida. I want to go somewhere and swim now that i have somewhat of a tan, and im not all pasty.

Good news! Jesh is in town. I dunno how long hes here, and when hes gonna leave, but hes here! YAY. He better call me, or he WILL die! I miss that kid. school has not been the same, but i have benefited from this by inheriting the chair. Such a nice chair. Anways, i should be doing something productive i imagine. Have a great day!

Poor CJ

Here is another picture of our adventure. It reminds me of that song by Blink 182 - Adams song... :) Poor CJ

Its Early

Its 3 am! Wow! Today was an interesting day. I went to my first two classes, but then i got really sad, and wanted to go home. ( I know, im wierd ) So i went to bed right after chapel (11am) and i woke up at 4pm. That was a 5 hour nap! I skipped all of my afternoon classes and just slept. It was great, i really needed the sleep, but now, i cant sleep, its gonna make me noctornal! AHH. Oh well. I also got to talk with my roommate tonight about a lot of stuff. She is awesome! I love her and her crackheaded-ness :-D Well... i think im gonna try sleeping, after i finish reading 1 samuel. Hopefuly i will get some sleep tonight. Today started out bad, but ended good. I need to remember to thank God more often for my friends, because they can always make a bad day good!! :-D
G'night all...

MWWAAAAA

Thats the sound of a lawnmower outside your window at 8 IN THE MORNING!!!!! This does not make me very happy. I do not have class until NOON. i would appreciate it if those stupid phys plant people could refrain from mowing outside peoples windows until at least 10. SERIOUSLY!! One of these days im gonna jump out the window and attack the mowers! moving along... i miss VT cant wait to go home!! WAHOO

Turtle, Turtle

So today, i noticed something... Glaske smells like boy. Ugh. Ya know that smell you get when you visit a guys floor, well today, thats what i smelled in Glaske. How is it that boys have a certain ucky smell. What is up with that? Seriously!?! Any boys care to comment and defend themselves? didnt think so, cause no one responds.. so HA i win!
My thermal lunch bag is ALIVE!! AHHH... run for the berm.

We had a really great meeting for LSM today. It really made me stop and think about a few things. One, i dont wake up and thank God for being alive. I just wake up. Can you imagine how much better your day would go if when you woke up you made a commitment to God that you would allow Him to lead you throughout the day. Amazing. Also, when i get stressed i need to remember to take some time and pray. I find that praying really helps me calm down, now ive tried many other things to help me to relax, but amazingly enough, praying and just spending time with God and His word does the trick. I am not perfect by any means, and i continually, daily try to work on my faults. I fall, oh believe me i fall, but everyday is a new day. It is so encouraging to be here at LeTourneau. It is a great thing when believers can just get together and strengten and challenge each other in the Lord. Wow, i am in amazement.

If anyone would like to help out with LSM we really do need the people. We want to set this campus on fire for God. If you have any ministry ideas, or even have a few hours you can set aside a week. I know that God will bless you in spending time to further His kingdom. One idea... we need help with the Judgement Day carnival. We need people to be extras in the skit either in hell or in a club type scene. Also we need councelors to talk with people after they have seen this show. Judgment Day is going to be open to the community as a safe activity to do during the Halloween weekend. Please help us out. We could really use it!

AHH.. Dont Die!!

So, i love my roommate! she is the best, really funny... so my new favorite phrase of hers is "AHH, dont die!" She enjoyes yelling that when driving and people are in front of her car. I love it.

Well, its time to start the studying process again.. go me! I was busy on quizilla today, but i really dont think that many of these are accurate. oh well!

"I spread my wings and I learn to fly, I'll do what it takes 'till I touch the sky"

Random paint smell in my room, hope my roommate didnt spill paint on her bed, i think she fell asleep!

You're a Spring. You usually are very close-knit

Hey everyone is blog land.. not so much to post about, again another weekend, im lovin how this semester has been flyin. I cant wait to go home this winter! Bre is workin at DARKSIDE!! Im so excited! That is my favorite store ever, it RULES! I applied at Killington today, so hopefully i will get a winter job up on the mountain. I would love workin up there, plus you get a FREE SKI PASS!! how awesome would that be, get a really discounted board, and get a free ski pass, so i can go snowboarding every day!?!?! ohhhh this has the potential to be the best winter EVER!! anyway, here are some quizilla results


You're the color blue. You have the three c's in
life--you're cool, caring and confident.
Trustworthy and honest, people are naturally
attracted to you. You're unusually optimistic,
but that makes life all the better. You're an
imaginative person who loves sleeping and
dreaming. Hard-working and determined, you
excell in school. You're everybody's favorite,
and this is because you have this undefined
richness in your personality and attitude.
Mild-tempered and stable. Not to mention very
intelligent. Along with the fact that you're
conservative, you're worried about the
environment. So basically, you're a generous,
dependable and devoted--just the kind of person
everybody needs. Wouldn't it be great if
everybody in the world were like you?

Ive Never read the bible

So.. great quotes from the roommate... "Ive havent read any of the bible" haha.. i love her She meant she hadnt been reading much for her Bible class.. no.. shes not a heathen...

Well.. off to finish my lab, i want to go to bed at some point tonight...

The joys of English

So im sitting here, trying to read Margery Kempe for Brit Lit I, and i just cant seem to read it. It is boring, and makes no sense. I should just quit while im ahead and do journal entries. Im almost at the end, and right now Margery is lecturing the Priest. Pretty soon it will be about her nursing her husband in his old age. Oh the joys of this book at least this is the last english class that i will EVER have to take.

So i also realized that i really dont get much of a Christmas break. Suck! We get like 3 weeks. I hope next year we get more of a break. Wow, i cant believe that next year is my last year. Its crazy. This semester has gone by faster than any other semester. Now that exams have started up now, its just gonna fly. YAY!

I got a betta fish, but i dont know what im gonna call him. Does anyone have any ideas?

I did homework tonight.. yeah.. go me! What a great way to spend a friday night. Ive been really unsocial lately, which is really unlike me. I have really enjoyed spending time alone, and im actually happy that no one is around this weekend, cause i can be alone.. is that such a bad thing? I have no motivation to spend any time what-so-ever with any of my guy friends. BAH guys... anyway, Quizilla still works here at LU, so here are some results


You are the most important person in his life. He
would do anything to see you smile. Actually,
he would be the PERFECT boyfriend. Always
getting lost in your eyes, always treating you
like a princes and always saying a joke to make
you laugh your head off while he smiles at your
hysteric laughter. Yup, he is the person you
were destined to fall in love with.


What kind of boyfriend would you have?(with pics and obviously for girls^^)

Yeah, like that one would ever happen.... right... maybe one day...


You're a "Pink Angel". Now, just because
it may be a little bit of a feminin color
doesn't mean you're all girly and whiney.
You're very self-less and love to bring good
news to people because you like seeing people
happy. You have better manners than most and
people love how polite you can be. You're
friends love that they hardley ever get in
arguments with you and can barely get mad at
you! You're friends and family mean so much to
you and it takes more than a fight to break you
away from them. (If you cannot see the picture,
go to my homepage and scroll down near the
bottom. I have the results from all my quizess
that have pics)


What Color Angel Are You? (PICS)

You're a Spring. You usually are very close-knit
with your friends and value everyone freidnship
you have. You're a real people person and
everyone loves how friendly you are. You're
good with encouraging people but usually don't
like to be the center of attention. You are a
social butterfly and probably are in several
circles of friends but it's just because you're
well liked and you make people comfortable.
You're both fun and wise but you are very
realistic about life.

apparantly, i could date this boy.. whohoo... HA


So, side note, as i was walking across campus today, i noticed how hot it was, and i contemplated jumping in the sprinklers. I didnt know that it could get so freakin hot in september... wow Apple picking season in Vermont has arrived, which means.... they have had a large frost... i wish we would get a nice frost here!

bah

well.. finally in Longview, but all i wanna do is go home! I miss Vermont like non other...

Keep on keepin on....

So, this weekend has been fun. I went up to Burlington yesterday, and for those of you who do not know of this Burlington, its the biggest city in Vermont, much larger than Longview Texas.. more along the lines of Tyler, Texas. I went shopping on Church street, saw some guys that i have gone to school with since first grade, Sam, Nick and Mike. Great fun... didnt talk to them, but i KNOW they saw me. Hozers... Anyway, then i met up with some friends from high school, Erin and Erika. That was fun... i hadnt talked to them in almost a year, so it was awesome. Next year i may even live with them up in Burlington and waitress. I would love that!

Then i went to this Christian youth rally, and it was fun. I was one of the oldest people there however.. but it was fun. It was mostly for high schoolers, but it was great to hear music that we play in chapel, and the speakers were along those lines too. It wasnt like a Bud Austin chapel though. Thank Goodness! It was great to get out with other Christian kids though and just have fun.

Today, i went to Maine. Now Maine has to be one of the best states ever. It is so beautiful. Im sure flic would agree with me. My parents and I took a day trip up the coast to about Wells beach then went back down. So pretty. Hurricane Charlie had moved off the coast enough, so it wasnt rainy, just cloudy. I love the ocean. There is just something about it. The sound, the smell. So awesome. God is amazing, and he created it so we could enjoy it! It was fun to spend some time with my parents since im leavin so soon! Well, thats about all thats new in the life of Andrea. Some ideas for a winter job are either.... 1. Waitressing at Sugar and Spice, a restraunt i used to bus for, and the owners are good friends of my parents... or 2. Work in one of the lodges up on Killington, so i could have a free snowboard pass, and i could work on gettin good, FOR FREE!! How awesome would that be? Well.. its been a long day.. and im sleepy.. G'night All

cupid?!?!

For those of you that havent taken the Okcupid.com quiz, i suggest that you do so. It is great :) It makes me laugh, and for some people can be quite fitting. My result of the test was the Sonnet. My favorite personality though is the Last Man On Earth or the Manchild. Great times had by all on the Okcupid.com Quiz. Be prepaired though, some of the questions can be a little ranchy.

Boys Ugh

Well.... isnt it like guys to cancel. Yeah... RAHH they are dumb, and should all be shot. "oops, i forgot, can we do it tomorrow, i have plans" after you get all ready, then oops.. sorry... such a pain they are. Anger...

well thats all, tired and angry, goin to bed.

Chillin wit the old high school boys tonight. Hopefully a good time....

August 2004

Well, its august, but if you were in VT right now, you wouldnt know it. I bet you would think that its like early October or something. One thing i am going to enjoy being at school is not being far away from my friends on the floor. I will have a great time getting to know all the new floor mates and thinking of great ways for them to get my signature :-D he he he... I am trying to look at the positives and trying to forget that we have to comingle with 2A. I am looking forward to my new roommate. I will miss my old roommate a lot because we had some great times! but the new one seems really sweet, and so i am excited. Im really happy that i have been able to talk with her a few times. I have a problem with cutting off the world once i get home. I get in my groove doin my own thing, and i forget to keep in touch.

Well i gotta run... Bre and I are running over to the Army Navy Store :-D oohh yeah!!!

Good

This morning at church really spoke to me. Everything was just so great! I was so encouraged. I met a friend from back in high school, who is doing great things. She is now majoring in music and bible, and she has an amazing voice. I am hoping that we will get together before school resumes. A few verses that just spoke to me from the message are:

1 John 3:7-11 NIV

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

1 John 3:18-21 NIV

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, becuse fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us. If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother.

Finally: 1 Corinthians 13:13 NIV

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

This really challenged me today to love everyone as i should. I hope this challenges you guys as well :) Have a great Sunday!!

RAHH

Well, back on to post. I have finally recovered from being online all the time to post for my nutrition class online. I got an A!! WHOHOO GO ME! I have had many visitors, most recently Jesh. Jesh and I stayed busy, and man... were we busy. I was so tired every night, it was crazy! We went cliff jumping, hiked up the falls of Launa, went to Montreal, went to Boston, hiked up Pico, and watched a few movies with old high school friends. It was good times for sure. I really like Canada, i should move there! I could go to Magill for only $5,000! Hows that compared to LU?! Well, this summer is winding to a close, and for sure, i DONT WANT TO LEAVE. I would do just about anything to not have to go, in fact i am downright pissed that i have to go back, so please, if you decide to talk to me, DO NOT bring up the subject of me going back to school. It wont be pretty. I figured i would just put that out there.. anyway, moving on...

Went shopping today, got some new shoes and a few new shirts. I love shoes! GO SHOES! I got my hair cut. Kinda looks like in did in my senior pics 3 years ago. Cute though, i really like it. Not too short, but short enough to manage! My volunteering for physical therapy ends on Monday, so then all i will have to do is my vet job which is 4-9 about 4 nights a week. Not too challenging. 20 hour weeks are nice :) Well, thats about it for updates, all you guys should post and let me know if there are any other topics that i failed to mention. Also, if you post there is a greater chance of me posting again before i head back to the fry pan.... oh yeah... today was.. get this... 50 degrees!! OOHHH YEAH.. haha.. its so cold. there is something wrong with it being 50 degrees in august. Thats just wrong. Oh well.. the last two summers have been extremely hot, which results in 30 below zero temps for months on end in the winter. So maybe if we have a cooler summer we will have a more mild winter and more snow!! oohhh more snow would be nice, so then i could work on my snowboarding! Well, im tired, so i gotta run...

DONT FORGET TO POST!!!!!!!

Congrats! You are KRISTI! Prom Queen, Head
Cheerleader, impulse shopper, envied by girls,
wanted by guys. You're half of the "class
couple," wildly popular, and the
"little rich girl." Incredibly
naive, have a strange fear of kool aid, and a
bit ditzy, but we love you anyway. You're most
likely to be seen with Alex, Maggie, or Chloe.
