But I'll have to start with last night. I really needed to go to bed but my friend Emily wanted to talk so I talked to her instead of sleeping. (2 hours, not all night, but I only got five hours of sleep) But it was totally worth it. We talked and prayed and it was wonderful.
So then this morning I woke up late, of course, but was still really happy about last night. I even had encouraging dreams. So then my bio lab got out really early so I got alone, quiet time with J!! That was so good.
I smiled at people a lot today. I stare at them till they look and then I smile until they smile back. Sometimes it takes a while. It's a good practice for me cause somehow I pass a ton of guys. Talking with, smiling at girls is easy peasy for me, but guys... practicing.
Then in Contemporary Poetry we had another good conversation about changing America. One guy said, "Someone needs to set off a bomb. So to speak." I LOVED that!
Then I took a twenty minute nap and almost skipped swing. But I went and it was wonderful! We danced a lot, and learned new stuff, and got better at old stuff, and met new people! really really good. And there was new music from the usual and there was some J music stuck in there. SO FUN dancing to music written for J!
Then, they were going to drive back, but I would rather walk. Plus, I already smashed a finger in that car's door so I didn't really want to get in there again. haha. But then I wondered if I could beat them back. Walking through campus is more of a straight shot than taking the roads. So I ran from the Union to the dorm. hahaha. I am SO out of shape!! But it was super fun sprinting through campus. Zombies/Humans were out, and getting ready for their battle tonight. And there I was, hurtling through campus. It was fantastically fun! AND I BEAT THEM! (The car I mean, not the zombies)
Swing dancing felt kind of transformative tonight. I'm trying to put into practice these things I KNOW but don't really believe in my heart, and it was so good having that music behind it tonight. I'm excited. I'm realizing a lot about myself and people in general. yeah. I don't really know what else to say about that. It's impossible to explain. Stuff's happening though. I'm waking up. :)
GOOD DAY because GOD IS GOOD!
