Really random ramblings.

You know how sometimes you just sit and write out a random sentance? And then slowly that sentance takes you to some point? Well, I did that not too long ago, I wrote: "Will you forget me?" and from there I just kept writing. lol. Really random. But I thought it would be fun to post anyways!

Will you forget me? Will the future look back and wonder what happened to the young girl who used to sit under the shade of the maple, when its leaves made the young twigs bend with their weight? That maple which is now ancient; its bark is wrinkled and flaking; the limbs fall from its crown like the hairs off an old mans head. No one stays to hear its story, the youth are not interested in the tales of the old, they are preoccupied with the constant movement of the future, ever forward, never pausing, like a raging river bound for the sea. Who can fight against that current? Who has the will to stop and learn wisdom? If they did, I would tell them so many things! I would tell them what to embrace, and what to refrain from. I would tell them to remember everything! For in everything lies a purpose, a lesson that can be taught over and over again. But if you remember, you only need to learn it once. Be mindful! It is so easy to forget, too easy. How much had I forgotten? How many times did I trip over the same stones in my path? How many times had I fallen in the same ditches? And how many times had I stopped to marvel at the same pointless material wonders that had slowed my quest before? If I had only remembered to remember, the journey would have profited so much more!

Thoughts

I feel like writing something. I am not sure what, so I will just sit here in a rather uncomfortable position and type away on my laptop keyboard. I have a rather bad headache that threatens to make my head explode at any moment! *Beware!* I think I am just tired and a bit stressed and worried-the kind of constant stress and worry that just sits there on the surface of your stomach and refuses to let your muscles relax. Hmm, maybe I will have stronger abs from this? Stress as good exercise. Lol. Ugg. Tonight is kind of miserable, but I am not an utter basket case, I still have a light heart and hopeful spirit, courtesy of Jesus and several years of living that have taught me that bad days don’t last forever, good days come, bad days come, you never really know what you are going to get. But whatever it is, it doesn’t last forever. The one thing that is guaranteed to last forever is eternity in paradise with Jesus if we have faith in and love Him! The best thing for me now is to put on a smile (though I may not feel like it), do what I need to do, and then sleep and wake refreshed on a new day.

Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strength. -C.H. Spurgeon

School school money school teaching school school school school.

That pretty much says it. lol Why am I not stressing totally out of my mind?? I don't know..I feel like I am becoming another person..a hard working, responsible, adult-ish person! *major gasps * well..I think I am still working on the responsible part..its easy to wait till the last moment to do anything when there is a lot to do...or at least I think it is. ;)
I taught Awana's tonight! Yay! One down..two more to go..then we will see where it goes from there. I am glad I get some experience!
Tomorrow..a quiz. Oh, and I am supposed to have a chapter read out of a text book I can't get my hands on. :p Then I get to do self-defense Tae-soo-do class! :D...and then a fun Bible lab/class which I must finish my homework for tonight. Something tells me I am gonna be up late. Meh.

I love college! ;D No really, I do!

Tomorrow!

Monday is tomorrow! School Starts tomorrow! I only have one class tomorrow! Its Caleb's Birthday tomorrow!

Saaattuurdayyy?

Its Saturday! Oh no! Tomorrow is the last day of winter break for me! Ahh. Oh well, I am excited to start school!
I just finished the first Maximum Ride book! :D GOOOD! Too bad I wont be going to church tomorrow else I would return it to its owner. :)
Thats only one cool thing that happened yesterday. I also got my first cell phone (I know..I am behind) hooked up and I colored my hair dark dark brown (ok, its mostly black, but the package said dark brown!) Still, I like it!
Anyways...heres to hoping (and praying) for a great new year (which really starts for me on Mon.)! May the Lord bless it, and may I glorify Him with a joyful heart throughout it all! Amen! ::giggles::

Teaching...better have a plan!

I just spent 3 hours with the Awana's teacher creating a plan for next weeks class! I had no idea that I would be doing it so soo! And the intense planning had me a little worried (thought it would be easier..for some reason). But it was a lot of fun! :D And...they had a dog. I don't like dogs..and they usually don't like me..but for some reason this Rottweiler liked me, and by the end of the three hours I was a pretty fond of her too. lol Growing up means facing fears no? Wait...did I want to grow up? ;)
Now...back to planning and acting out the schedule in my head. Lets hope the kids are in a calm, obedient mood for my first time attempting this...I love those little guys! :)

Books Books!

Good morn to you! In my last few days before school, I have taken a sudden interest in finishing some books that were on my long reading list over winter break (which I really never got to). Last night I finished the 4th Rangers Apprentice book (and LOVED it!) and then I picked up the first book in a series called Maximum Ride I borrowed from my friend Allitrya Spelling and started reading it at about 3 at night...I read till chapter seven. I wonder if it's wise to get hooked on books (especially a series) four days before school? ;)

Week before school!

Hi! I have a week left before its time to head back to school. Tonight I had Awana's, and it was incredibly busy! Fun, challenging, busy, nice, ect. Anyways, the instructors plan to give me a shot at putting together and teaching one of the class lessons for the Sparks group (which is the group with the most kids!) I am meeting with the teacher tomorrow to plan for it! Yikes! I have never done anything like this before! What an exciting experience...hopefully I will keep my head through it all! I know I will be very happy to have had this chance once I am done! :D Right now I am just trying not to worry. lol Naw, I am pretty excited and honored!
Can't wait to start all my new classes!

Yes! A Blog! Hopefully this one will be used more than the last! ;)
