Additional thoughts...
I was thinking as I wrote that last post(but I forgot to include it…hey give me a break. It’s 1:18am!) that I am so incredibly blessed. Think about Haiti tonight…do you think any of them are so comfy that they can’t fall asleep? I bet they have the opposite problem. I don’t know why God chose to bless me as he does, but I am certainly thankful and because he gave me...
Is this good or bad?
I think I have discovered a beautiful problem. Have you ever been so comfy in your bed that you can’t fall asleep? I know I know…that’s pretty weird, but I just keep laying here thinking about how nice my sheets feel on my toes and how perfect the temperature of the room is for sleeping and how my pillows are just at the perfect angle… And though I am quite tired I just...

It’s been almost 2 weeks since we arrived back on campus. It is so nice to be in a schedule and I am enjoying most of my classes. I am really appreciating and loving the girls on my floor- everyone at Houghton (well, practically everyone) is so different and has so many different gifts and qualities that it’s really fun to get to know everyone. Anywaysssssssss Dan and I had our RA...
Google's Satellite View of Port-au-Prince, Haiti →
Click that. This is incredibly eye-opening and awful. Keep praying for Haiti.
:D
So Dan and I both got past the first stage of RA elimination (YAY!)…so we both have interviews this wednesday and then they’ll be deciding who they will hire. We are very excited!!! If you could pray for us on wednesday, we’d appreciate it :) We will probably be nervous so pray that we’re not awkward haha. Also, if you could pray that we both would get accepted, that would...

Katie’s mom sent her this biggest loser workout dvd and it is intense. It took half an hour to do the level one work out and we were pretty pathetic at some moments. :) I feel more exercised after that little dvd than after riding the exercise bike for 45 minutes! Who knew?

This is called a Sunlight Map and it’s the coolest thing ever. It shows where the sun is shining on the globe.
Just sent in my RA application!

oh my life is average.
Today, I high-fived a guy I don’t know because his hand was up. He was trying to high-five the girl behind me. It was awkward. MLIA
Today, driving out of the parking lot of my school, I saw a girl throwing sausage links at cars. This easily made my day. MLIA
*disclaimer: for those of you who do not know, these are things that happened to other people. Not me…I just found them funny....
new semester
Hello! I thought that you may like to know how my new classes are going. It feels quite good to be back at school and be in a schedule. I really like my schedule this semester- a good mix of free time and class time. I have a handle on how to get all my work and reading done and how college in general works…so I feel good :) Also, I got the job as the student photographer for the admissions...
global warm...uh... cooling?
My environmental earth science professor just sent me a link to this article:
http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/01/11/years-global-cooling-coming-say-leading-scientists/
Essentially, it’s saying that we’re about to enter a little mini “ice age” and we can expect temperatures to be cooling down all over the globe. Sorry global warming. I always believed that the whole...

Tomorrow- you're only a day away
Today is my last full day at home. I’m excited to start the new semester, but at the same time I think it will be weird to go back to school after being home for so long. It will also be strange because Dan and I are driving ourselves out because we now have a car :) As sad as it will be to say goodbye to my family tomorrow, I think this next semester will be really fun :) Peace out VT!...
photoshop strikes again!
“In the photo, Watson’s right leg appears to take a mysterious turn before disappearing altogether, perhaps the result of a post-photo shoot editing session gone terribly awry. There’s the possibility that Watson’s leg is fully obscured by her brother’s, but that would likely mean she’s standing on a box or posing with one leg up (which might explain why...
tomorrow,
stupefy:
i’m going to the yarn store. i love yarn stores. they’re the most amazing places. especially if the yarn is very nicely color-coordinated. yeah. they make me happy. i’m going to begin knitting things from my new book, Charmed Knits: Projects for Fans of Harry Potter. i’m so excited about this. you don’t even know. :):):)
I love yarn stores too! except I am a bad knitter. Sigh. But the...

I am going to miss midnight grilled cheeses when I go back to school.

I question the validity of this fact.
My Tom's should come tomorrow!
I love vermont.
Today I was driving through Shrewsbury and I was just amazed at how absolutely gorgeous Vermont is. The trees were totally covered in snow and it looked so beautiful. Like if it were possible to live in snow globes, it would be like living in Shrewsbury. I just love it. I really miss the vt scenery and mountains and such when I’m at school. Basically New England in general is just wonderful....

Your Love is Strong
I look out the window The birds are composing Not a note is out of tune Or out of place I look at the meadow And stare at the flowers Better dressed than any girl On her wedding day So why do I worry? Why do I freak out? God knows what I need You know what I need Your love is strong

Tomorrow I am going to get coffee with my friend Sorcha and it is going to be lovely.

I think that fast food meals should come with a complimentary snowglobe. maybe with a little plastic burger inside, or a little large fries. (little large?)
I think this would make life better.
