| Well, once again it has been forever since I have posted on here. One thing I have noticed is that I do not keep in contact with my friends very well. In fact, I have not talked to most of them in a few years. How lame am I? I do however read updates about them here on Xanga so I guess that is good. In other news, I, like some of my friends, will be graduating college in May of 2010. How wierd does that sound. It sounds wierd for two reasons: 1. I will be graduating college and 2. It is almost 2010. It seems like just yesterday that people were worring about Y2K and I feel like I just graduated high school. However, Y2K was 10 years ago and I graduated 7 years ago. Man, I feel old. Anyways, as I prepare for graduation I am fully aware of the responsibility that is about to come my way. I will be graduating with an English degree and to answer the question that is going through many heads out there, I am NOT going to teach. I plan on moving out west, probably Washington state and maybe get involved with a pro-life political organization. I am not for sure though. The good thing is that I know that the Lord will put me exactly where he wants me to be. For any of you out there wondering, no I am not married yet. In fact, I am not even dating right now. I need to finish college before I start a family. Plus, I cannot just marry anybody. My husband must be a man that the Lord has put the same calling on his life. Eventually, I plan on doing missions work in Africa and I must have a husband that is also called to missions or one of us will have to give up what the lord has called us to and I know that that is not the lord's desire. I will one day find that man and we will be married, but as for now I am very content being single. I know that my future is uncertain right now, but I am very content in following the calling that the Lord has put on my life and I will not back down from my calling. I will talk to you all later. Take care. - Go With Peace | | |
| Ok, so one more semester down and only two left to go. Well I am not quite done with this semester yet. I still have to give my last last ASL presentation (american sign language to those who do not know asl) and as for last last, that means that I am required to have four semesters of a foreign language for my english major and I am finishing my fourth semester. Although I have enjoyed asl, I am happy to be one step closer to graduation. I also have one more final to do today. However, it is not until 6 PM tonight and it is not even 1PM yet. I wish we could take these tests whenever we are ready and not have to wait around for a certain time. Anyways, at least I will be done today. Then I have a week off before I start my three week summer class. You know the work load this semester has not been so bad but because of verything that has happened and is still happening in my life has made this the hardest semester yet. I pray that things straighten themselves out over the summer. The good thing is that at the end of the summer I will be able to get away to see my sister in washington for a couple of weeks and have a chance to recharge before mylast year starts. Then I will be close to the finish line nad can move out of ohio forever. Thank goodness. Anyways I have to go finish preparing for my presentation. Anyone else who is finishing classes have fun and good luck. | | |
| Ok, so it has been awhile since I have posted last and a lot has happen, both good and bad. Lets start with the good. I will be done with schoole in one year and 12 weeks. That still sounds like a long time, but i am getting so excited that I can hardly stand it. My sister and brother-in-law have promised to fly in for my graduation. I can't believe it. I will be the first person from my family to graduate college. My sister and her husband are still in the middle of the adoption process. Thier home study is set to start soon so we are all hoping that there will be an addition to the family this summer. However, it could take up to a couple of years. And now for the bad news. My brother-in-law (not the one mentioned above) took his own life last thurs. night. He has left behind three small children, ages 5,3, and 1. My family is getting through it, but the children will have to grow up without a daddy in their lives and the baby will never know his daddy. There will come a day when the children will be told the truth about what happened and they will be very angry. right now all they have been told is that daddy had an accident. Please pray that there are people who can help them through all that they will have to deal with in the future. for anyone out there who is thinking of suicide please realize that that is not the way to go. All suicide does is cause problems for the rest of the family. Realize that there are people that you will leave behind that will be in extreme pain because you have decided to give up. It is not worth it. | | |
| Ok, so once again we are getting down to the wire. I have two weeks plus finals week left in school for this semester and I have eight papers to write/finish. I am sure many of you out there can relate. However, after this semester is over I will only have 3 more semesters before I am finished so that is good. I may be able to finish and be done next christmas, but that all depends on how hard I want to work next summer. I know I will be taking at least one summer course, but it is still summer and I want to spend a few weeks in Washington with my sister so I probably won't take many more than that. So, on another note. Why is it that when we get our first snow of the season people forget how to drive? I live in ohio and we get this snow every year and you would think that people whould not forget how to drive on it from one winter to the next, but they do. Last tues we had our first decent snow of the season and I was driving home from school. I was doing an average of 45 (slower than I normally go, but not too slow for driving on snow) and I got behind someone doing 25 the whole rest of the way home. Now, the roads weren't great, but they were not nearly bad enough to go 25 on. It reminded me of when it snowed in Texas and nobody knew how do drive on it and they were all afraid of it. Well have to go get ready for work. I will talk to you all later. | | |
| Why is it that those who are willing to do things in the right way always get those things last? It seems that if you want something in this world and you want it now the only way to accomplish it is to do things in the wrong order. However, I know that God has great things in store for those who are willing to wait on his timing so I will continue to wait, no matter how hard it it. | | |
