goodmood

I am in a good mood! (i talk about it likes it's a rare thing). this is why.

1. I have made it through "hell" week as my friends and i have come to call this past week.

2. I made a 98 on my CALCULUS exam. (yeah, God sure loves me. And i have a wonderful friend named Ashly who has taught me basically the whole, VERY CONFUSING, class). And, although i was displeased with my chem exam grade, the other three exams i took i was satisfied with.

3. It is the weekend and i can finally relax.

4. My monday spanish class got canceled, and my Chem lab on tuesday got canceled. Therefore, my thanksgiving break is officially one day longer than everyone else's. YeS! :D

5. I sat at starbucks tonight, with my mocha mint drink. yumm. reminded me of old dorm starbucks runs, or the starbucks sunday morning with my dear sweet roommate elissa. ironically, i was there having a great time with my roommate mercedes.

6. It is less than a month before i get to see Ben. this is an amazing feeling. another month has gone by. we're making it.

7. i am looking forward to buying a wonderful new jacket tomorrow.

8. my regular "aerobics" class was substituted by the kickboxing teacher. i loved it.

9. the cold outdoors disappoints me, but it has opened up a bunch of new wardrobe options.

10. God has yet again proved to me so undoubtedly that he loves me.

some days i wonder

Some nights i lie awake because my mind just won't seem to settle down. I sometimes take that time to think about the day gone by, and how i lived it.

Yesterday is dead and over, am i who i want to be?

I want more than just ok.

Are you who you want to be?

,in swtichfoot's words.

jo. isn't she gorgeous? we don't look alike.

This is my beautiful sister.

My FAVORITE lyrics, ever

Well I'll never forget the first time that I heard

That pretty mouth say that dirty word

And I can't even remember now what she backed my truck into

But she covered her mouth and her face got red

And she just looked so darn cute

That I couldn't even act like I was mad

Yeah I live for little moments like that

Well that's just like last year on my birthday

She lost all track of time and burnt the cake

And every smoke detector in the house was goin' off

And she was just about to cry until I took her in my arms

And I tried not to let her see me laugh

Yeah I live for little moments like that

I know she's not perfect but she tries so hard for me

And I thank God that she isn't 'cause how boring would that be

It's the little imperfections it's the sudden change in plans

When she misreads the directions and we're lost but holdin' hands

Yeah I live for little moments like that

When she's layin' on my shoulder on the sofa in the dark

And about the time she falls asleep so does my right arm

And I want so bad to move it 'cause it's tinglin' and it's numb

But she looks so much like an angel that I don't wanna wake her up

Yeah I live for little moments

When she steals my heart again and doesn't even know it

Yeah I live for little moments like that

with me always

The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him. Nahum 1: 7.

no matter how lonely i feel, i am still NOT alone. that makes me :) .

wheat thins.

i'm pretty sure that wheat thins are my favorite thing. they are great. i'm always hungry, and they are always there for me to turn to. thank goodness for wheat thins. i was in a video shooting for a southwestern promotional video today. yes, i am a superstar. i cannot wait until thanksgiving break, simply because that means more sleep. in the meantime, i have a HUGE calculus exam on monday, and i'm sure many more fun things will follow. Stuff in store for this weekend is: studying (duh), babysitting my cousin, shopping (yessss), and maybe some sleep. whoo! this weekend i talked to candice on skype for an hour or two, that was great. i think everyone should get it. it's pretty darn cool. try it guys, just try it. ha. well, that is all for now.
