| This may be odd for some people, but I actually am listening to this album right now. Anyway, I just had a hankerin' to write another entry.
I'm so excited to be able to go home this weekend. A nice long ride with cool people (six hours with one person I know well, and two that I have met once or twice). But I really am excited. I get to see my sister in our high school musical, Seussical. I'm also getting all of my hair cut off (not all, just really short). Plus, getting to see all of my family is going to be awesome. Maybe I'll even work a puzzle, although the coolest person to work jigsaw puzzles with won't be around. Bummer.
I have been really happy lately. I'm not sure why. Maybe its because many of my friends are getting together with members of the opposite gender. Maybe its because I've been listening to my Wyldewood CD a lot lately. Maybe its because I'm going home. Maybe its 'cause the weather has been awesome lately. Maybe its because I feel like I have been getting closer to God. Maybe its because I have been washing my face every night. Maybe its because all of my friends are just awesome to be around. Maybe its because I have been accomplishing a lot of things as far as school goes. Maybe its because of jigsaw puzzles. Maybe its because Karen and Arvil Jones are the best people in the world. Maybe its because my room is fairly clean. Maybe its because dancing is cool (not necessarily just the Foxtrot either; dancing to music in your room where no one will see you is cool too). Maybe its the fact that I have been praying a lot. Maybe its some random, unknown, scientific, nerual impulse that I don't know anything about. Who knows. I'm just happy. | | |
| I just spent about 30 minutes walking around campus by myself and praying. I really don't know where my life is going right now and I need to rely on God to show me. The walk was really refreshing and I felt a lot better afterwards. I've got a lot of excellent friends, and my life is kinda settling down, but I still need to be more thankful for what I have. | | |
| Yeah so, as it would seem, I have been forcibly dragged into this whole blog thing. To anyone who may actually be reading this, did you notice that I just typed only one space after my sentence? There I did it again. This is simply because in the journalistic style of writing (Associated Press for those who care), that is how it's done. Since I am going into a field of study that is very closely related to journalism (Public Relations), this will probably be my standard.
So. Off to an excellent start...
I don't exactly see the appeal in these things, however, I am going to attempt to try my best to accomplish at least a few cogent entries. I also hope to keep my grammar from getting too atrocious. Some of these that I've seen can get pretty messy.
I've spent most of the day trying to learn the rest of another song on guitar. I guess if I keep at it, I'll have a decent chance of knowing the whole thing. It is so satisfying to actually be able to play and sing something at the same time. The rest of the day I've been taking finals (Life of Christ, Print News Writing) and spending time in the caf with all of my awesome friends. I really couldn't hope for a better group of friends. Course, we often have our little spats, but I find mostly that the problems that I have are a direct result of my attitude and often of my failure to think about what I say prior to saying it.
I really don't know what God is trying to tell me to do with my life. I often wonder where I am going to be in the short two and a half years when I will be out of college. And mostly I wonder who that special someone will be. In high school (which is not the place believe me), I let that take control of many of my thoughts. I know that now that I am a bit older (and wiser), it's is a better time to contemplate this, however I still feel like I let it control me. I know that I should be focusing on my relationship with God and where my life is going, but I also think that it will be an integral part of my life. I guess, one of my biggest problems in this area is knowing when girls like me. But even more than that, knowing when I actually like a girl can be a problem. Sure, I can notice a pretty face or a good personality. But, I never really know when I click with someone. I guess I should just be more outgoing and courageous but that's easier said than done. Though I have become so much more so since this summer and since coming to Harding. Frankly, I'm proud of myself.
Well, perhaps this isn't as hard as I thought it would be. Here's hoping that someone will read this (other than me of course).
