I survived adolescence!

My respect and appreciation for J following guys has grown so much today.

They have a LOT of pressure too!

Thank you for listening to my J!

Keep on keeping on dudes, you're appreciated!

today was hard.

I am so exhausted in every way.

I know that just sleeping won't fix it all.

But I think that's the first thing to do.

Oasis was intense.

INTENSE.

G was totally there though.

actually, I think that's why it was intense.

Didn't know what to title it. I'm wearing a girl shirt today. :)

Very stressful week. But instead of focusing on the bad things, I'm going to make a list of things I'm thankful for this week.

1. good talk with Joan yesterday :) (I really appreciate her friendship.)

2. good talk with Emily over dinner.

3. Swing dancing was SO much fun!!

4. my craft of poetry class and professor.

5. I know three people in my contemporary poetry class.

6. I had a good spontaneous conversation at lunch on Weds.

7. I had a good conversation today at lunch with an acquaintance I hadn't seen in a while.

8. Spanish isn't as hard as I thought it would be.

9. God knows what He's doing. I'm SO glad I don't have to worry about this on my own.

10. finding the some of my favorite music on itunes. (and listening to it like it's my job :) )

11. a few hours of quiet on Thursday

12. the promises found in psalm 37 verses 5 through 7

13. the snow!

14. walking in the snow with Lara

15. eating more healthy than I did last semester.

16. my good friends and family who listen to my problems with kindness and patience.

17. french braids

18. that J is patient and His overwhelming love.

19. I know I already said swing dancing was fun, but I want to emphasize that I GOT TO DANCE! I LOVE TO DANCE! :)

20. that joy is a choice, and action, not a feeling.

So there you have it. I don't want to complain. It's friday. I have something to do tonight. Sunday is my birthday. No school on Monday. G is up to something... I don't know what... but definitely something. Ok I should rephrase that. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HE IS DOING AND IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY! But it's ok. There's a song by Sanctus Real called Something Heavenly. Kinda how I feel. G and my heart are working together and my brain feels very left out. But it's ok. He's in control. He knows what He's doing. I have great friends and a wonderful family and my G loves me very much. I need to remember it.

I hope you have a glorious day whenever you read this!

Love!

Mutemath- You are mine

Everyone has their obsession

consuming thoughts consuming time

they hold high their prize possession

that defines the meaning of their life

You are mine

You are mine, You are mine...

Found this song this morning.

Commit everything to the Lord. Trust Him, and He will help you. He will make your innocence radiate like the dawn, and the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun. Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act. (ps. 37:5-7)

Holding onto this for dear life.
