I've had some of the best blessings in conversation today. I found what I needed to hear and spilled my heart to people who care. I love having Becca as my mentor and I think it's perfect that she is one step ahead of me in life stages. I asked her advice on how soon before marriage a couple should start talking about sex. She recommended talking ( Read more... )

Dude, I am loving having a special guy in my life. :) Last night we were both at the fellowship/worship night at Andrew Hana's and spent quite a bit of time together (in groups of course) in conversation and then I also attempted to long board. Lol. That was fun. Haha. I was doing well at first but then I decided I wanted to coast down the hill. ( Read more... )

I hadn't realized it until chapel today, but the past two weeks God has been trying to speak to me about humility. I was so dumb not to see it ( Studying and Teaching the Bible looking at Luke 7, Kids' Church, chapel). The speaker today, Bill Farley, made the point that if we think we're doing pretty good at being humble we're obviouslty not! The ( Read more... )

Wow. I really love it here. I couldn't have asked for better room mates / apartment mates. We all have so much fun together (especially making gay jokes about Sam and Caleb). So far we have watched TV at the guys almost every night, played Ultimate Frisbee and Football, gone to Lake Cour D' Alene, gone for walks, went to student orientation, and ( Read more... )

Wow. It's been an insanely long time since I wrote here. Obviously, though, I took my real journal with me on my trip to Guatemala. But, I am far too lazy to type it all out, and what's the point really. Anyways, Tahoe was amazing as usual. It was so great to see all my extended family. We had a little party to celebrate Uncle Wayne's retirement ( Read more... )

Last Sunday was the first "Girls' Bible Study Meeting" at Lisa's house. We are all reading through "Lady in Waiting" together. It should be a really great study. I hope to grow closer to all of the college girls as Redwood. It was so hard for me not to spoil the book because I am the only one that has read it yet. Lol. Also last Sunday night Bethy ( Read more... )

I think it is kind of sad that I was tearing up at my brother's Senior Chapel and Tea. I the reason was mostly because of Ezra's testimony about his brother and then at the end his dad said some stuff to him during open mic and ezra gave him a hug. It was all very touching. But yeah, it was nice to be back on my old high school campus, though it ( Read more... )

Wow! The party at Ashley's house last night was incredible! I met so many cool new people and we played the best games and I won almost every game I played, it was great! I swear Ashley throws the best parties in the world. Lol. We started off playing Imaginiff (I won. lol.) During which I got to get to know some of Ashley's friends, most of whom I ( Read more... )

Eeehhhhhhh. I want school to be done with! Run to me summer freedom! Although I feel incredibly bored right now, I know there are things I should be doing, like filling out job and finances and mission trip applications. *Sigh* Not to mention all my school projects, well just my art classes ones. I have a short paper for my Graphic Design class ( Read more... )

We got a second puppy! She is so cute; her name is Chase and we got her for free! She's a 4 month old black lab. I honestly never thought we would have 2 dogs in our home. My mom was quickly swayed (by Caleb?). The first night the guy brought her over Izzy and Chase were having a blast, but now I think Izzy is kind of annoyed by her because she is ( Read more... )
