(no subject)
i should be doing homework....blah.
So i've hit a point in my life where i've realized that all of the crap i had to go through in order to get to where i am today was totally worth it! Life is AMAZING right now! I had dinner with one of my best friends up here, Alyssa and we had a great talk about how big God is and how sometimes we have to go through things that are really crappy and we tend to just focus on those few small moments but when we finally get out of them and God starts to reveal more of his picture we begin to piece everything together and it all starts to make sense. It is so great to somewhat understand everything. I feel like i am a more grounded and confident person now. I feel like i finally have a good grasp on who i am and there is really no better feeling than that. I feel like Jesus carried me through all of the harder times and now that its all over i have a chance to just breathe and bask in his amazing love and glory. The best image i can use to describe this is just dancing with Jesus in a open sunny field. I know that sounds like a scene out of a really bad romance film or something but thats totally how i feel. There where times last year and even my junior year when i just felt so run down and unhappy. I didnt know 2 things about myself and felt very lost. I hit the peak in that last semester when i felt more lonely that i had ever experienced before. God has taken my exhausted lost self and transformed me into a confident young woman whose just ready to take on the world. I love it.
I went and looked at the house i'm going to be living in today, it was nuts. The house isnt done but i can tell its going to be totally cute. I have my own room, private bathroom and walk in closet. It just doesnt get any better than that kids. To think about how much i was freaking out a few weeks ago when the girls i was supposed to be living with decided to go with another offer to now, having this adorable nice house with 3 awesome girls, its just amazing. God worked a true miracle, i'm totally blown away. I now have a place to live for the next 3-4 years (however long i'm here) and i just coundnt be more excited. It was such an odd experience walking into a uncompleted house thinking of it as home knowing my parents wouldnt be living there. Talk about a smack of independence. I'm totally excited though and cant wait to move in!
anyway, in other news...
chonko test: totally brain raped me but it still wasnt as bad as i thought. Now all i have to do is wait...la de da.
headed back to SA-Town tomorrow to spend the weekend with the famila, best friend and of course my rivercity church loves. I might even get to see Sugarland at the rodeo...heck yes!
life is amazing!
and on that note, its back to homework.
