Verses

"Are nto two sparrows sold for a cent? and yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your father. But the hairs on your head are numbered. So do not fear; you are more valuble than many sparrows." - Matthew 10:29-32

"Come to me, all who are weary and heavy landen and i will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for i am gentle and humble in heart and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light" Matthew 11:28-30
My friend gave me this verse this week for encouragement. I just feel hurt inside. I have such conflicted emotions. On one side, i dont feel like i deserve to mourn so much, i wasnt his parent, his sister, or even his best friend. I was a friend. Yet, i cry on a daily basis. I also am conflicted because how can i cry when hes in heaven, playing soccer, sitting at the feet of Jesus. Its ok to mourn, but sometimes i just dont feel like i should be. Its also hard for me to accept that hes gone. I keep accepting that hes gonna just show up at sometime. This weekend will be very hard when his parents come in to clean out his room, and stay for his memorial service. I will really have to come to terms with it this weekend, and thats gonna be so hard. i will see him again soon

Psalm 15

O Lord, who may abide in your tent?
Who may dwell on Your holy hill?
He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness,
And speaks truth in his heart
He does not slander with his tongue,
Nor does evil to his neighbor,
Nor takes up a reproach against his friend;
In whose eyes a reprobate is despised,
But who honors those who fear the Lord;
He swears to his own hurt and does not change;
He does not put out his money at interest,
Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent.
He who does these things will never be shaken.

This was Zack's favorite verses back in the day. Yesterday a good friend of mine, zack went to be with the Lord. I loved him, and it is hard to let him go. I never expected that he would die, i guess i figured he would get better, but next year he would be back at school. I am conforted by the fact that he was ready and prepaired to die, up until his death he was self-less, and was more concerned by the grief of his family and friends than his own death. He had an amazing relationship with God, and i would really like that deep-ness as well. His faith was so evident in everything he did. He has encouraged me in so many ways. It makes it so hard to let go, everywhere i go on campus around town, in the future, reminds me of him. I was excited to see him this summer because we would be living close to one another, so i would be able to spend time with him. I always saw him in Glaske where we would talk about school, MSC where we would hang out at acoustic cafe, The lounge at KZX where we watched movies and most recently a dave matthews concert on DVD, so many memories, so many discussions. Even when i listen to music i think of him, dave matthews, country. I feel so sad inside, like im breaking apart, like there is a hole. But then i think of how he is now. Hes at the feet of God, in awe. Maybe he is running and playing soccer in his healed body. Whatever he is doing, he is so happy and healthy, and i know i will see him again, so i have to be happy for him, even though i still grieve. I feel bad most of all for his three sisters and parents. They loved him so much, and though they are comforted, they still miss him greatly. Please pray for all of this. Its hard to deal with the death of a loved one.

Procrastination

youareconner
You are Conner MacManus. You are more serious and

less cynical. "You and your fucking

rope". You are a yekler and not a risk

taker, except for sometimes when the time

comes. You are loyal and would cut up your

own wrists to save someone. ^_^

Fix You

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

High up above or down below
when you too in love to let it go
If you never try you'll never know
Just what your worth

Lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you


Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears streaming down your face and I

Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face and I

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Hell Week

Since i use this mainly for ranting and such.. welll.. here goes...
I AM TIRED OF EVERYTHING. And for once, im not so burnt out on classes. I could probably keep going with classes, its just a steady process. Ive learned not to study too hard, but to study often. Its not always effective, but it works for my ADD personality. I am mostly tired of mind games. I am tired of thinking "do they hate me?" "did i do something wrong?" Honestly, im tired of it. I dont recall harming someone, and i would sure be aware if i was pissed at someone... At this point i just dont care... I am direct, and i love my friends, i really do.. but im tired of mind games. AH.. so tired... so tired. I love going home, because its a good month of solitude, art, and reflexion. I do nothing at home. My entertainment is CSI and painting, sometimes piano. oouuu reading too... i love being home because i can seclude myself and recharge. I really am never bored at home... its odd... but really, i can always find something to do. I am so excited for home. I miss the northeast everything... the culture is so different, and i miss it.
Well this was probably the most random post ever, but i am greater than tired, and its time for bed. after 12:30am i generally dont have coherant thoughts. yeah.. goodnight all

YAY

Breezy got into Keystone College!!! Its in LaPlume, PA and its her top choice for schools. I am so happy and proud of her! :) I am so glad that she gets the opportunity to go to her number one school, and i hope she is very successful and grows in relationship with God.
I hope i get into Arcadia, but i want God's will for me... wow.. if bre and i were close that would be so much fun, i would be close to family again. that is what i want more than anything, just to be closer to family... being 30 hours away is killing me!

That was wierd...

So, i go to post, type in blogger.com on my browser, and it says that i need cookies inabled before i can log on. So then i go back and type in blogger.com again, and scroll down the history list, find something with a blogger.com/post-create, and BAM! here i am, didnt need to log in, and aparantly i dont have cookies inabled. I found a loophole in the system. HA.. HA.. HA!!!
This morning i tried something different. Since i have class in Solheim at 8 in the morning, i decided that i would work out afterwords. I dont have class after then, and i might as well work out while im there instead of going back to sleep. Exercise apparantly give you more energy than if you went back to sleep for an hour or so. I'll let you know how the progress goes, but so far its much easier to do this, then to find time to work out at 11pm when really, i should be winding down in my room to sleep at 12.
Really, i have a lot on my plate for the next three weeks. Next week i have around 3 finals, and the week after i have another 3 finals. It should be intense, but after that i will be home, snowboarding with my BEAUTIFUL new snowboard. I am so excited, you really have NO idea. aahhhhhhh... My first day home i start my new job, which means i will have a season pass!! I love VT, i really do... and most importantly i will be with my family which i miss so much. This winter will be hard. There has been a lot of problems at home, and this winter we will all be in close quarters. This will probably be the last time we will all be in the same area. I hope that one day we will all end up in the same place, i would prefer Pennsylvania, and so does brez, so maybe thats where we will all try to go. I am praying that she gets into a school there. I want for her to get a good education, and get away from the mistakes her parents made. But God has a plan for her, i just want her to be happy and maintain a good relationship with Him.

oh the joys of marriage

you know what sucks? since no one is around to comment.. ill just tell you, cause i could be waiting awhile. Parents that fight. When i was younger, i thought my parents were going to get a divorce. They fought constantly. I wanted them to break up, because i was tired of hearing them yell. Sometimes i think my mom just likes to yell cause it makes her feel better. That is why i am a timid person. When you are severely yelled at for your entire life, you tolerate being put down so much that you become small. Dont get me wrong, i love my mother, i just hate the ugly person she becomes when shes in a bad mood and she feels the need to yell. Moving on... My parents are beginning to fight again. They have stopped fighting for as long as i have been in college, but its beginning again. Its over little things too. My mom doesnt like it when my dad stops to talk at church. Hes a deacon, thats what he does, and is supposed to do. Well, my mom hates it when he stays after, so she will scream at him if he stays too late. I feel bad for him, he just doesnt know quite what to do, they are two very different people. She loves him for being a good provider and taking care of me, He loves her because she is a good caretaker of the house, but under this are some twisted views. My dad is gone a lot, he works almost too much, and my mom gets lonely. I think because of her loneliness she lashes out. She is unable to stay up really late with him, since she gets up early for work, and he cannot go to bed early, so he will lay in bed for hours after she is asleep until he can actually fall asleep. I am afraid because i see mimiking qualities of my dad in Danny and my mom in me. now im not a yelling person, but i can be stubborn, and i go to bed early, and im not extremely social. Danny loves to stay up late and talk to people. I cant draw conclusions from this, but it still scares me. I wonder how happy my parents really are sometimes. Then i wonder if i really want to get married someday. I dont want to fight all the time. My parents are currently not on speaking terms. Sometimes i feel like my life is falling into pieces all around me. I try so hard to keep things afloat that i just cant keep picking up the pieces. My family is broken now (not only my parents) i feel like im a world behind in school, and graduate school essays are creepin in and i jsut want to send out applications. Its so hard. God will take care of me, and my family. His will, will be done and i will be happy... although now it feels like my world is falling apart. Its hard for me to express my feelings on all of this. Writing is like therapy for me. sometimes i feel like im falling down a hole, and im drowning. this was a thoroughly depressinng post... please pray for my family.
for those who would like to post comments, you do not need a blogger account to do so. You can even comment anonomously if you wish. please comment... please

Love

Mother Teresa was quoted as saying, "There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this world than for bread." I was disturbed today to find out how many people on this campus are shallow and are just mean-spirited. Love is important. God tells us in Matthew 22:37-39 that 'You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all you soul, and with all your mind' This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is like it 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself'. Sure people on this campus arent all beautiful, they arent all thin supermodels, the guys arent abercrombie and fitch models either. It really bothers me when people go around saying how ugly are campus is, how wierd they are, how everyone is a nerd, and on and on... Sure, our campus is strange, its not like real life, but God loves these people. God loves them just as much as everyone else. He made them strange, he made them seemingly 'unattractive' on the outside, but i bet you that some of these people have a beautiful inside. They may in fact be more beautiful on the inside than you and me, and that is what really matters. God tells us to love one another, making fun of people, and putting others down saying they look like dogs is not showing love, its showing hate. It breaks my heart. I bet those people wake up like everyone else and say to themselves 'I want to look cute today, so im going to wear my cutest outfit'. Im not gorgeous and thats what i say. God loves you, all of you. Be kind to those who hate you, be kind to those who love you. Dont be selfish and stuck on yourself, its not attractive, and whatever outer physical attractive you had disappears. Putting others down is very unattractive. Love your neighbor as your self. Thats my rant for the day. Good thing no one reads this.. it may stir up trouble :) HA

Moo


So, well... its been a very long time. I just realized that its been so long that i didnt know you could add pictures without hello anymore.
I cant wait to go home! you have NO idea, in less than one month i will be SNOWBOARDING again. ahh... i get to use my new board and everything. This winter i will be working at killington again, but not as a lifty.. im gonna work in the baseshop doing sales, and other random things there. I dont think i will be working at darkside either. Darkside was the best job ever. It was really layed back and i got a free sweatshirt (which is now my favorite). I love winters, i think it may be my favorite time of year because of the snow.

Oh, good times at home. This Christmas will be a strange one. It will be the best and the worst all at once. Family is one of the greatests gifts God has given me. Well, i think im gonna go eat, but with any luck i will try to post more often. These classes have gotten me so busy i cant see straight. Hopefully i will apply to 4 Graduate schools by the end of the week. I jsut want to get the applications in and leave the rest to God. I love you guys! Sorry to keep you waiting so long, although i doubt you read this anyway.. leave a comment if you do, im kinda curious.

And the semester continues

So... I've decided to open a MySpace account... that way, there is a nice comment board, so i dont have to post as much, but i can keep a running comment board going... it will also be nice next year after im gone to keep in contact with people... so i encourage everyone to comment there....

My Space

Other than that.. things have been well, school has been slightly hectic, and well.. thats how things go. I guess im not used to it, since i slacked off last semester, but im sure i will manage and live through it. I cant believe im graduating in may AH!!

Im beginning to apply for graduate schools now, and that is EXTREMLY scary.. So, if you think of me in that area.. please pray...

oh yeah, and in an additional note, my dad is leaving for the Phillipeans tomorrow, so if you could pray that he has a safe trip and that he accomplishes all that is in God's plan, that would also be appreciated!

How is everyone else?

Well.. time to read anatomy once again.. whooooo

31 July 2005

inspired

So i got inspired to post... actually i have some questions that i would like answered. First of all is What the heck is wrong with me?

I say this because i really think i have some issues. First of all being, why do i always not look forward to going to texas at the end of the summer? Is this a bad thing? God wants us to be content in any situation, because he has us there for a reason. I know what my reason for being in texas was, but now at the end of the summer i once again am detesting the thought of returning to texas.

I think i am a New England Gal. I dont think much can change that. I hope God's plan is for me to return to the great east coast. Now, i dont beleve that i want to live in Vermont my whole life, but the firthest i really want to go southern-wise is Pennsylvania. I guess i just love my family and everything about the north. New England Buddy got anything to comment?

Is this wrong for me to think this way? I wish i could just love texas, but ive tried, i have and it doesnt seem to come to me. I like LU, but once i leave there i am really not wanting to go back. I dont mean for this to offend anyone, but i seriously doubt that some of you want to move to the north east. Does this mean thats God's plan is for me to live up north, since i feel so strongly, or is he just forcing me to live in the south cause hes teaching me to be content, even when he knows my heart is in the north? HELP.. someone comment please!!

hope this made sense... hope everyone is doin well...

09 July 2005

Hiatus

Hiatus is a long break... "after a hiatus, andrea posted again"

so yes, thats correct, i am once again posting. i know.. its amazing. so... here has been my life, came back home, and was highly motivated to get stuff done. I painted the swingset, got my horses hooves clipped, washed and clipped my dog, got a lot of cleaning done, put my room back in order, sorted out throught old clothes im getting rid of, i am currently house sitting, working at the vet clinic a couple times a day, taking a GRE class, and helping my dad renovate our deck and my bathroom. well... see i have been busy.. whoo.. go me, well.. thats about all for now, you can see why i really havent posted.. kinda been busy, and havent even thought of posting..

hope everyone else is doin well

Ingenuous

Ingenuous means to have a child-like simplicity or innocence.

My cat (abby) has been missing for a week, so please pray that she comes home soon. We miss her! I think im gonna walk around the neighborhood to see if anyone has seen her. We've asked our neighbors but thats about it so far.

Well, ive finally made it home. Its nice to relax, sleep in and generally be a bum again. im back to working my usual 5 hour work days 3 days a week, its quite entertaining. However, i should start painting my house soon. That should be fun!

Well, i gotta run up to Burlington VT to make up the test that i missed in my GRE prep class. whooo... ill post lata

21

Today I am 21, thats right, THE WRECKONING has come, and today is finally my birthday!!

YAY for birthdays....

14 June 2005

Latent

Latent is a potential that is not readily apparant... I may look dumb, but really... i have potential ;-D

ok, ok... well, not much is goin on here... still... only have two exams and a final remaining this week. Friday is my final then im done with one class.. and i got enough stuff to do before then. I need to figure out my financial aid situation, drop the Human Growth and Development class, since im taking that presently...

In a week i will be flying back to vermont. I hate doing this. I love home, and i love my friends, WHY CANT THEY ALL BE IN THE SAME PLACE?!?! Flic and i were talking about this a few days ago. People that live near here hate it, but really, you get a good deal, your near your parents and your friends for most of the year. You can go home and do laundry, see your parents, eat a good meal. Flic and i go home 2 times a year for only a few weeks. It sucks!

You may be wondering why i so adamantly inform everyone that TOMORROW IS MY 21st BIRTHDAY!! well, my freshman year, everyone forgot when my birthday was, so i decided that to prevent only my parents remembering when i was born, i would not give anyone (my friends) an excuse for forgetting my birthday.....

so in light of the fact that TOMORROW IS MY BIRTHDAY....








Your Birthdate: June 15

With a birthday on the 15th of any month, you are apt to have really strong attachments to home, family and domestic scene.

You are very responsible and capable.



This is an attractive and an attracting influence.

You like harmony in your environment and strive to maintain it.

You tend to learn by observation rather than study and research.



You may like to cook, but you probably don't follow recipes.

This number shows artistic leanings and would certainly support an talents that may be otherwise in your makeup.

You're a very generous and giving person, but perhaps a bit stubborn in ways.
