real summer begins

last night around 4AM, i finished my take home final and officially started my summer. no more need for this stress reduction technique!!! after i finished, i think there was still some frustration leftover (frustration with the final) that i wasn't completely happy or satisfied. i thought what could make me feel better... EGGS! i made myself some eggs and boy were they delicious. i felt a little better after that, but now that i've woken up and it's the next day, i still feel [not optimal]. now i'm starting to think it is no longer leftover frustration, but merely confusion. confusion about what i'm supposed to be doing with my time now. it's been a while since i haven't had the burden of school on me... i've always been having to do something or accomplish something (Ex. if school is in session, there's ALWAYS something to be studying for)... but now that... i don't... i feel weird... can i really just... play? am i really that... free? should i go out... and smell the roses? this is so new to me... but i'm sure i'll adjust quickly and juuust fine :)

1 Timothy 1:12-17

i'm at Peet's right now, trying to accomplish a million things that are so crazilyaojsd arranged on my plate right now. need to finish up my take-home final, write out my testimony, memorize a passage, and figure out... things. oh, and all these things have a deadline. HELP ME FAZAAAAAAA!!111

for the first time in my life, i'm going to attempt to memorize 6 verses in a row.
may Christ Jesus my Lord give me strength and super memorizing skills to accomplish this.

12I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me faithful, appointing me to his service. 13Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief. 14The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

15Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst. 16But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. 17Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

it's a beautiful day outside. i'll come out to enjoy you... tomorrow.

my parents

a lot of things go on throughout the day. but at the end of it, i just want to see my parents. i want to spend time with them. one of my favorite times in college is when it's time to go back home. even though the ~6 hour drive up and down is painful in many ways, it's so worth it. just to see their familiar and smiling faces, and to be greeted with their welcoming and warm hugs. i regret the grief i have given them in the past, but now i want nothing but to serve them and show them how much i love them. i can look at just them, and be able to say God is good. biggest blessing in my life hands down
