hm...

i should not be blogging. but its been a few days, so i thought "eh why not!"
so this week has been just marvelous! on saturday i went to san clemente with tricia, emily, and emily lee! seriously, it was so beautiful. we were sitting there just looking at how beautiful it was and i just was thinking about how beautiful God's creation is. we were in awe. it was the best temp ever. haha... you know when its not to hot and not to cold, just perfect! ah, i have been catching myself talk about weather a lot recently. i should just become a meteorologist or something haha. that would be a disaster.

today was just splendid. well, the last three weeks have to be honest.
today was perfect. shorts and a comfy shirt, which said "i love SF"... haha i gotta represent the bay area in some way or another.
i woke up, went to swimming... WHICH is so wonderful. i am a fish, seriously. i love the water. and then psychology was SOOO interesting today. we are starting to talk about neurons and the brain.. the nerve system and all those cool things!

after that i had english. my professor is absolutely amazing. she is such a strong woman of God. in every which way. one of the things i love about her is that she is CONSTANTLY learning. when i am 50 i still want to be learning. i never want to stop. there are so many different people you come across throughout life, that knowing lots of things and always learning is a way you can be on the same level with certain people. that was one long sentence... that hopefully made sense.
she is also very encouraging. shes just an awesome lady.
she kind of caught me off guard today and had me to share with the class why the Lord has pressed on my heart and share my love for Jesus. It was pretty fun sharing. i like that we get to do in class here.

the other day i applied for another summer camp. yosemite summer camp to be exact. i had an interview and the whole shabang. during the interview the guy was asking such compelling questions. he really made me think, but at the same time it was so cool.... i really felt like God was present during the whole interview. crazy peace thing.

anyways.... i hope all is going well with who ever is reading this haha.
love and peace :)

i can't figure out a title because there are many things i want to talk about.

first of all about an hour ago i burnt my leg with boiling water. i was pouring tea out of the tea kettle dealio.... and then i accidently split boiling water on my leg. it hurt like a BIAAAA... you know what i mean and still does.

this semester is a little different than last semester, my life has been dedicated to reading haha. SOOO much of it. its okay though i am kind of in a calmer mood for school this semester. i love all my classes.

my OT and biblical and spiritual formation classes have been rad. the holy spirit is totally at work and forming my heart in different ways. i feel like my eyes are being opened because of the knowledge i am gaining from going through the OT... its pretty sweeeet.

i am meeting with murray- one of my profs from last sem- about going to new zealand in the fall tomorrow....
SOOOO EXCITED :)
i really hope it works out.

so good

today has been so great.
heres a billion reasons why MINUS one huge thing.

1. i woke up super pleasantly.
2. went to chapel and worship WAS AMAZING. the speaker was also great. he talked about how the christian culture is no bueno. and how if we conform to it, then what will we do in another culture- such as partying and such.
3. went to my biblical interpretation and spiritual formation class and LOVEDDD discussing galatians 2:20 and hearing people's responses in my conference group.
4. went to disneyland with rachel :) and finally saw the aladdin SHOW!!!
5. bought coloring books and crayons haha... for lazy nights with rachel.
6. came back to my room and found that all of justines old furniture was gone!!! YAYYY! okay so heres the story: i had 3 roommates last semester. my roomie justine moved back to texas because money was tight and so now its just grace and i. grace is from turkey, just thought i'd like to point that out haha. so we spent ALLLL night reorganizing our room. it was a disaster!
7. talked to emily about egypt and about life.... it was wonderful. and she bought me a purse that i LOVE from egypt.
8. grace and i have been getting along super well!!! so i am so happy about that.
9. i feel like my room finally feels like home.
10. talked to laurennnn! and i LOVED it. ah so comforting. i love that we are friends (if you are reading this, i love you and i'm praying for you :)

okay BAD news.

around 9 tonight i found out that my friend ruthe is leaving to MOVE back to oregon. shes been thinking about it for a while apparently and she is going back home! sooo shocking!!!
okay ruthe and i:
have 3 classes together, go to almost every meal together, exercise together, laugh together, hang out ALL the time....
shes a pretty good friend here.

i am just so shocked. i don't get it.... but i guess there is no changing people. God does his thing, i need to trust in that.


anyways thats that. God is goood!!! in the next blog i have a cool thing to share that i learned, but i'll save it :)
