culmination

today, i lived on two hours of sleep.
i found out that my film camera cannot be repaired, i was told that i left my computer charger nine hours away back home, and i had a huge fight with my best friend.

this weekend, i drove a car for a total of 20+ hours, talked to a middle schooler about his attempted suicide, and counseled a friend who isn't living for anything beyond herself and knows it... but won't change.

right now, i just want to be held. but instead i have to memorize a list of the kings of israel and judah.

what i liked today.

radio

i've decided that i really don't like listening to secular music.

i'd so much rather listen to something else. like worship. or something like that.

the radio sings nasty and inappropriate songs to me. i don't like it.

today.

i smiled at spring when it showed up outside my window.

p.s. - i found big red in joplin. it's a good day.

distracted

today is the first day in a week and a half that i didn't feel incredibly sick with a cold.

i still went to my classes. (proud of me?)

today was the first day in about a week that it wasn't overcast and cold outside.

today felt like springtime, and i can't get anything done!

i have a huge test for mark moore tomorrow, and i can't seem to study for it worth anything. which is not conducive to getting good grades.

tomorrow is the last day of classes for like 

TEN WHOLE DAYS

and i'm so excited to be touring with the band in illinois next week. we're playing in chicago!

i was trying so hard to study, but i didn't know what to do with myself! sam and maggie came the room, and the sun was streaming in, and i got some awesome pictures of sam's beautiful eyes. then i couldn't sit still and study after that! so i decided to finally go get some springtime looking pictures of the grass outside the dorm. 

i'm all muddy... but it was worth it. totes ma goats. 

i'm going to study now. wish me luck.

once a week

(twice) a week

i just really love both of these pictures... i couldn't choose just one!

once a week

i love college.

yesterday, i watched the entire third season of the office.

and took a shower.

and taught rob about aperture, manual focus and shutter speed.

i'd say it was a productive day.

i really love being in college.

p.s. -- i started reading isaiah yesterday. isaiah chapter one might be one of the most convicting things i've ever read. i decided that i'm done being lazy about my faith. like watching movies with nothing redeeming about it. and skipping my quiet time every day. so... yup. exciting days.
