God is awesome! He is moving through people's lives and every time He seems to amaze me. It is so wonderful to see the people you care about the most be blessed by God's love and grace.

I've currently been in my own world this summer, and it's been fabulous. The time off is what I needed, although I am continuing taking classes during the summer, I somehow, through the grace of God, have been more at ease right now than my previous quarters. Life is good right now, it's better than good.

This week I received two job offers. The first one is at Heavenly Cappuccino, a stand at the college. Katie, a good friend of mine, is the new manager, well not officially until next week. In the past I've mention to her that I've wanted to be a barista for awhile and I was on the hunt to becoming one. So on Thursday she informed me there was a job opening and wanted me to work with her. Working in that place would be such a blessing, especially working with the two other of the girls, which are also Christians. Man, we could revol-christianize the school! I am so pumped!

Then, this morning, my aunt who works at Bank of America, informed me that the company is requiring every branch to have an employee that is able to speak Spanish. Guess who does? That's right, I do! I nearly stumbled down the stairs this morning. I was so ecstatic.

It's amazing, how God works, when you least expect it, you receive the unexpected. However, I want both, and now all I can do now is wait and pray and know it's in God's hands now.

But until then, there's...
Next week, Switchfoot.
Three more weeks until CREATION!!!
Then, FREEDOM FEST.
...and, church, school, reading and Brien Ford in between.



Even though this world has nothing for me, I find joy in the Lord.

Today was my last day as a college freshman and as of ASB Vice President of Administration. This year could of not have gotten any better. I have truly met some amazing people and have developed many meaningful friendships.

As I sat at my desk one last time, I remembered what I was doing around this time last year, prepping for graduation and painting those bathrooms.

I've been reminiscing, and I leave it to that...



Valentine's Day Extravaganza!!

HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY!!!

Annie
I miss this girl.

You have a place in the world that's unique, a path to walk that's yours alone. You have a spirit bold and bright, that's quick to care and to create. You have so many dreams to seek, so many talents all your own, so much in you that's good and right.


I love you like a fat kid love cake!

Rayford knelt there in front of his chair, his hands covering his face, praying silently. Whatever God wanted was what he wanted, even if it made no sense from a human standpoint. The overwhelming sense of unworthiness seemed to crush him, and he slipped to the floor and lay prospate on the carpet. A fleeting thought of how ridiculous he must look assailed him, but he quickly pushed it aside. No one was watching, no one cared...
Rayford lost track of the time, knowning only vaguely that minutes passed with no one saying anything. He had never felt so vividly the presence of God. So this was the feeling of dwelling on holy ground, what Moses must have felt when God told him to remove his shoes.

Big White/Kelowna, Canada [02 Mar 2004|07:16pm]


We started our day with our Snowboarding Lessons with our Australian hunk.


We were sore and constanly took breaks.


It started to get dark and decided we should head home.


At dinner, we thought it would be a good idea to snap a pic. to proove we legal to drink.


Then we headed to our hotel.
As Parker watched tv...


We were in the mood to seduce a man.


Unfortunantly, our trip had to end, and we headed home.

I'm looking for the peace to find some sleep tonight
'Cause I'm
Not very proud of the way I have lived today
But if I choose to
Follow Him along the way
Then maybe I won't look back
Feel like time is gonna pass me by
Then maybe I won't look back

I can't hold back, I can't be shy
This is my big chance to be living the life, I gotta
Stand up strong and take the ride
Throw all those useless excuses aside
So much to do, I got a lot to say
I don't always understand but I'll gonna follow anyway
'Cause there is a bigger plan, a destiny
I can't waste this precious time

But if I change my heart today, tomorrow it may be okay
And maybe I won't look back

This week seems as though it's never going to end. It has been incredibly exhausting and full of cammotion. Tbis was the first full week of school I have attended this quarter due to the two snow days of last week. After running around to class, to work and to meetings without breaks, I am now paying for the consequences.
I'm left with:
1. Without a car
2. A cold
3. Without sleep
4. A sore throat

It's going to take awhile but I'll get use to it.
