getting down to the wire....study study study
oh so much has happened since i last updated im sure....i just can't remember....boooo
Muster...
For those that dont' know...Aggie Muster is held every year on april 21st....and honors those Aggies that have fallen in the past year. I went to my first muster with some really special people...which made it all the more aweomse. You really can't explain it unless you experience it. That sounds incredibly cliche but so true... God's love and the spirit that is here at A&M was so apparent that evening. The essence of the love and peace that was there on that evening was a true reminder of how blessed we are to be here and have each other to support and encourage us.
Summer...
This sounds really retarded but i am so genuinely excited about other peoples summers for them. I am excited about Danielle answering God's call to go to the Phillipines and being a true and humble servant. And Allison,Andrew, and the rest of our church who will be at laity lodge havining a blast and being uber cool role models to the kids. Angela,Erin,Brian,Justin,i dunno all of them going on dif mission trips to serve becuase they want too and to reach out to the people they meet. And Sarah who...well....its still up in the air...but either way....it will be really awesome! i know it. ....Its goign to be weird not going on a mission trip this summer or being in the camp atmosphere. I'm sure Ii'll miss it, but i have complete faith God has something awesome in store that i have no idea what it is. LIke christmas break,spring break, easter break....wow...corpus is pretty cool. I do know i'm taking 14 hrs but other than that....we'll just have to see....
Life
um lack of a better title...more like miscellaneous... Awww at Boys and Girls Club on friday they had a lil apprecitaion party for all of us....coolness. I have really enjoyed getting to know the kids there. They really grow on you. I seriously didn't think they would but i love all of them soooo much. It sounds silly to say i will kinda miss hangnin out there with them. Its fun to get a bunch of hugs, random cards/notes, cool bugs they want you to have and a mni boquet of flower/weeds... LUV IT... aw fish banquet is wednesday... i think i'll cry... yea... our last programs mtg was last sunday.... sad.... everythigngs coming to a close.
Oprah
i think like last wednesdya i was watching it....and they were giving away some type of award.. dang i forget... but there were some really neat stories.... one that i found awesome was about this lady gynecologist who started a clinic in africa for women that suffered from fistula. it got me thinking of how much suffering there is and how spoiled we are... i mean dang.. ok... anyways... In africa often girls are married at an early age when their bodies are not ready for child birth even though they can have children. Many become pregnant and undergo awful labors, often lasting for days and end in a still birth. Needlesss to say this is painful and an awful emotional experience for the girls. Becuase, their bodies are probably mal nurished and generally not ready for birth anyways, they develop fistula. I think how it was explained was that pretty much the inside of her body is streched and pulled and her insides are torn apart. Becuase of this the girl has a hole that is never healed and it emmits a discharge that is foul and never stops. sorry that is kinda yuck. But because of this the girl becomes an outcast in society and suffers more physical and emotional pain. So this gynecologist set up a clinic to do a surgery that cures them and she explains to them what has happend to them. Ithought it was neat that this lady has devoted herself to helping them not only physicallly but in a human way to...like loving them and trying to help them realize they are ok. hmm ok that was random ... but i thought that was a cool story... It almost makes me want to be a gynecologist....eh no not really...
one more thing i liked this...."when we spend time with the world we become more like it and when we spend time with the lord we become more like him" dont' know where i heard that...or maybe i made it up...i have no clue....who am i trying to kid...gosh....my personality lately is like woa 180 seriously.....if you asked sarah to describe me then like.. allison to describe me...wow....you deftineily woldn't be talking about the same person...ya that kind of sucks....maybe its just the envirnment and the subjects we talk about...yea that is it...uhhhh enough with this entry....if i wrote this much on my paper...imagine how far i'd be....boooooo
ok there is so much more to write but if you have read that much...thats awesome..and..i am uber impressed with ya... i love the word uber...its so fun
