Let it snow!

This has been a tough week, first off I must say


Delta you suck


There all done





My classes have been screwed up multiple times, and finals are screwing with my head. I wish now more than ever that I'll get that beautiful letter of acceptance from Americorp, or a job at Circuit City, so I can quite my crappy job, or an internship with a christian film company....come on guys...email me back already! I'm getting desperate here!





Oh well, prayer always helps, but I haven't felt very close to God, there is way to much on my mind (curse you mind), and christmas break will be much needed.

....I wish I could be there...watching the sunset with a lover, writing poetry and truly feeling one with God....

Otherwise not much to say except.....SOMEONE PLEASE SAVE ME!


that is all

P.S. I found this very inspirational qoute by Victor Hugo, I think of this whenever I start to worry about something and it always helps; "Have courage for the great sorrows of life and patience for the small ones; and when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace....God is awake."

Thanksgiving/Colorado Adventures


Without a doubt this has been the greatest Thanksgiving week ever. I got to experiance three scrum-diddly-umptious meals, all one upping each other.
We spent Thanksgiving day with my sis Sarah in Colorado, whom I missed terribly and was so happy to see! Love ya! Her friends made us thanksgiving dinner that night. I was so touched by this, they made so much food and dessert, and were literally the nicest kids I've ever met. It made me start to wonder...would my friends have made my family dinner had I been in the same situation? The answer would probably been no, which made me think even more....

I love Colorado....so much, in fact I'd love to live there someday! There are snowcapped mountains everywhere you look, the town is so pretty (so unlike Saginaw), and everyone is SO nice! Even on Black Friday, the most cutthroat, mean day of the year, everyone was nice, and helpful and not cutthroat in the least. Stupid Saginaw, I want to move away.....now. hehe

I've also been doing lots of thinking lately about my future, and as of now, my future looks to put a hold on college (maybe forever) and bring me to Americorp. I've even been considering the marines, after talking to one for over two hours. Just lots of thoughts going through my head...
.....how can I best use my life to better humanity and futher God's kingdom?

Two Favorite Poems


I wanted to share my two favorite poems because I'm lame, the first is Footprints in the Sand, one of the most beautiful, most inspirational poems ever.


One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there was one only.
This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints, so I said to the Lord,
“You promised me Lord,that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there has only been one set of footprints in the sand. Why, when I needed you most, have you not been there for me?”
The Lord replied, “The years when you have seen only one set of footprints, my child, is when I carried you.”
The second is titled, "She Walks in Beauty" by Lord Byron, it is the most romantic poem I've ever read.
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair'd the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.
And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!
