| well,. haha...I keep thinking, oh I should post. Then I go...but I haven't posted in so long, that I could never do a post that does justice. Finally...I have decided...what the heck, I'll post anyways. I shall not recap anything from the last...oh...5-6 months? but instead, just say that my spring semester has started, and I am glad to be back in school, no matter how much it stresses me out. I am currently taking a history course, a communication class about the dynamics of groups(oh yay), an old testament class, an English course called style and usage, and a theatre class about auditioning. I am in chorale, student senate, treasurer in the Philosophy club, part of the mime team, I volunteer every moment I can in the theatre, and right now am the box office manager and assistant stage manager for both spring plays. I currently have three jobs: catering on-campus banquets, working as an English tutor in the campus writing improvement center, and the tutoring coordinator for on-campus subject tutoring. Part of being in Senate also involves proposal committees, I am the chairman of one, and a member of the constitution approval committee. So basically I keep busy. Once things even out, I'll probably still have a minimum of 5-6 meetings a week, if not more. I'll be working at least 10-15 hours a week, most likely more, not counting the theatre. But business keeps me focused, and I get better grades. So I remain hopeful. If anyone even reads this, feel free to ask questions, and give me a reason to post, haha...but yay! You'all got an update! *grin*

| hey hey everyone...I have been really bad about posting this entire summer...and now it is over! I can't express the joy...immense joy that I have when I think about that. Tomorrow is my last day at work, and I just breathe a deep sigh of happiness. I have worked more hours this summer in 14 weeks, than I have worked in almost a year while in high school. And I will barely have a cent to my name when I get back to school...yes, college is just that expensive. I know some people work more that 50-70 hours a week, and I just can't fathom how they don't die from exhaustion.
Well, I have a lot to look forward to this new semester. Some fun classes, strengthening my body, improving my campus through senate, working as a server, tutoring, and theatre!! :) I seriously can't wait. This next year will be amazing. :) I will miss everyone I have gotten to know(better) this summer, my old friends and my new. Please stay in contact, and hey...a roadtrip to OH with a group of friends sounds like a great plan to me!! *grin* If you don't have my IM, cell #, or e-mail...comment on here, and I'll get it too you. I love you all!

| So, I went to a wedding yesterday, for my now, ex-co-worker. She was my manager the entire time I have been working for Carl's, and it was so exciting to see her beautiful wedding. I made the dress I wore, which was a floor-length, red satin dress. It turned out alright, and if I can track down some pictures, I'll put them up on facebook...perhaps myspace as well. I do have wedding pictures, and those will be on facebook soon. :) Otherwise, this weekend has been a very very nice break from the constant working, and it cheered me up a lot...this last week was a very hard week for me...weird, depressing, and confusing. I think I am doing better though. Many thanks to a couple of people who helped me make it through. And thanks for the prayers of others, even those who had no clue why I was upset.

| Life really sucks sometimes....sometimes things affect us more than we thought they would.
A pathway that leads,
heaven knows where,
and we stumble along,
picking things up as we go.
I'm sorry that this time,
I picked up your heart,
because I had no right....
C'est La Vie....
But I'm still sorry.

| Goodness gracious...I haven't been online in forever and a day. I seriously work two jobs a day, eat, and sleep. I was gone from June 23rd-July 3rd...I was a camp counselor at a camp in Ohio. It was amazing!! I'll have facebook pictures up soon...YAY. :) I seriously love being a counselor now. I was pretty nervous going into it, because it was totally new for me. I mean, I have organized retreats and such, but for those I did everything but be a counselor...I can handle paperwork and phone calls, but leading prayer, teaching, being in charge of strangers...hm...not so much. It was a great time of testing and growing for me, and God didn't make it easy. He allowed Satan to inflict me with some physical pain, and He tested me with some trials, but overall the experience was one I would repeat in a heartbeat. The Lord did amazing things all week long, and I formed friendships I hope will last for a lifetime. :) Feel free to ask for camp stories...YAY..
