A Saturday at School

Well here's to around the 3rd weekend I've actually been at Central for the weekend. I prefer spending it at home because there are actually people around. It becomes extremely deserted on the weekends and feels rather lonely. I kept pretty busy this one though so it went by pretty fast. Anything to speed up these next 10 days.

-Homework
-Football game.. we won! The football team was amazing this year!
-Lunch.. giant calzone.
-Walked around the downtown shops with Rubal.
-Dinner.
-Urinetown.. this was a musical put on by the theater majors at Central. It was hilarious and the whole cast was incredible. By far the best musical I've ever seen.
-Watched Sweet Home Alabama in bed.

Sometimes.

Sometimes I miss you in July
When it's hot
And lightning rips
Along our tongues
Thunder roars
Against our bodies

Sometimes I think of you
When I am drinking my tea
As it is getting cold
And the day isn't even half over.



This is my favorite picture of a woman and man that I've ever come across.

Happy Veteran's day

There was a Veteran's parade downtown today. It was freezing cold but super adorable.
Chicken noodle soup for lunch and then I camped out on my comfy bed and watched Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2. Such an adorable movie. I want to go to Greece right now and wear flowy dresses while painting over looking the water. Ah, it sounds so wonderful. It makes me miss my best friend. We talked on the phone today but I get to see her in 12 days! Oh, I can't wait!

No Lights

The power went out when I was in the shower.
People kept coming in and asking if I was alright.
Of course I was alright.. I was just showering in the dark. No big deal.
We proceeded to play some apples to apples with the girls in the hall.
Finally the lights came back on. We cheered and then it was time for dinner.

Snow... Really?

Who would have thought it would start snowing today?
Not me, that's for sure.
I'm sitting in Geology class, where my teacher is playing Mumford & Sons aloud by the way.. and it starts to come down.
This isn't just a little downpour either.
Giant snowflakes start coming down.
Sort of like a mini blizzard.
Well, say hello to winter time.

Andrew Belle, Enough Said.

Andrew Belle was at Central today. He was literally 5 feet away from me at one point. I'm officially in love with him. His voice, his face, his hair.. oh boy, everything about him is wonderful. We even made eye contact several, okay many times. He smiled, I smiled back. It was a magical moment. I skipped psych class and it was totally worth it. Anything to see a free, rather private like concert from my favorite artist. I just couldn't stop smiling :)



I've decided to write my final english paper on abortion and how it's murder. As I was researching I came across this verse. How amazing...

You created every part of me; you put me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because you are to be feared; all you do is strange and wonderful. I know it with all my heart. When my bones were being formed, carefully put together in my mother's womb, when I was growing there in secret, you knew that I was there — you saw me before I was born. The days allotted to me had all been recorded in you book, before any of them ever began.
Psalm 139: 13-16

Jesus

Today was all about Jesus. Carly and I took the bus downtown. We stopped at Starbucks to get ourselves a mocha and then on to Mars Hill church. The worship was incredible. Truly talented musicians. The worship here in Ellensburg just isn't quite at that level so I really enjoyed it. Mark Driscoll is just so awesome to listen to. He has such a passion for what he talks about and I came away feeling inspired. Carly's lucky she gets to go to that church every Sunday.



The sermon was on the rich and the poor and how we need to use our wealth to worship, not worship our wealth. We need to guard our hearts by worshiping Jesus so that our focus will be on him and not on material things that we covet without even knowing it. My favorite analogy was that we are all little gods.. we sit on a throne which is a toilet every day yet we act like we are poor. A huge majority of the world doesn't even have a toilet to sit on. How can I say that I'm a poor college student when I walked a block and bought milk, juice, and yogurt because my fridge was getting a little bit empty? It's not about being rich or poor but where our hearts are.. are we righteous or unrighteous with what we have?
