Tuesday, Tuesday.
Today began with lifting, and we did this kick butt circuit, and it was amazing.
Then came breakfast, shower, chapel, and homework time in Janzow top. I got some soccer organizing done, and also got my DI portfolio part done. That was nice.
I then went to lunch, and class where we worked on our partner lesson plans. I'm not a huge fan of this project. I kinda just want to do what I want without a partner. That would almost be easier than working with a partner. But oh well. It's only 40 points, and it should be fun.
After class, I went to work on homework in Ben's room and got all of my Walther posts finished for the rest of the year. Winning right there.
Then Hannah, Emmalynn and I went to People's City Mission for the last time :( I'm gonna miss those kiddos. That was quite the experience, that's for sure. I loved every chaotic minute of it.
We got back and I went to eat supper, then came back and showered and did some homework before going to Fidelity. We watched some great videos and talked about Jesus. Great chats, great chats.
After Fidelity, Audrey and I went to DQ to get Monty's ice cream cake for her birthday, and we then celebrated.
Ben helped me do all of the dishes we dirtied in our room, and that was nice. We really had been needed to do dishes.
After that came the Pong tournament of all Pong tournaments. In our room we had Montana, Taylor, Audrey, Ryan, Micah, Amanda, Mariah, Carli, David, Melissa, Charlie, Creighton, Shawn, Jacqui, Ben, and I. I think I got everyone. It was epic, and there were some really close games. The team of Ben and Shawn ended up winning. This is definitely something we will keep doing, it was so much fun.
After that, I went to Walmart with Tori, Shawn, and Ben to get the prize for winning, then chatted with Ben for about an hour before falling fast asleep :)
It's so hard to believe there are only 2 more weeks of everything! Ahhhhh! This year went by way too fast.

Year 2 Days 132-152
Well, hey there anyone who reads this. Sorry for my patheticness lately. This hasn't been at the top of my list of things to do, but I wish I had been able to keep up with it better.
I will start from where I left off and give a brief synopsis.
Tuesday, April 2nd, we had lifting, I got some work done in Janzow Top, I had one class, I went to People's City Mission, I worked on our group presentation for Differentiated Instruction, I chatted with Ben for a bit, and I worked IMs for the night.
Wednesday, April 3rd, I had class all day, got a nice break in the afternoon, went to my leadership meeting, had night class, and worked IMs for the rest of the night.
Thursday, April 4th, I had lifting in the morning, Physics lab went well, our Differentiated Instruction presentation was boss, I played soccer with a recruit named Rachel, had a lunch date with Taylor in Janzow, and took a really solid nap because we didn't have soccer, and hung out with Ben for awhile before working IM soccer until the crack of dawn, thanks to an overtime game.
Friday, April 5th, I had class all day, had nice chats with Tori in JTop, came back to my dorm, and watched HIMYM for a LONG time. Yeah, I don't want to admit how long I watched, but Netflix may or may not have asked me 3-4 times if I was still watching. After Ben's recital thing, he came over and we hung out, went to McDonald's with Audrey, and then came back and hung out with Tori and Audge for the rest of the night.
Saturday, April 6th, Taylor, Cody, Charlie, and I road tripped to Kearney for Ben and Montana's track meet! It was the best day ever :) We spent some time in the sun, I got a little burned, we went to Target and Sonic, and when we got back to Seward, we watched the Michigan game, played cards with everyone, played 500 outside with a gatorade bottle, and then Ben and I talked the night away.
Sunday, April 7th, Fidelity morning out :) We went to church in Lincoln at the Lincoln Berean. It was a great service, but there wasn't a confession or absolution, and it was a little modern for me. Don't get me wrong, I love the modern stuff, but on Sunday mornings, I prefer traditional Lutheran style. We then went to Barnes and Noble to browse for awhile, before going to eat lunch at Cheddar's. I took a nap when I came back, then went to the library to work on my lesson plan. IM soccer went on for awhile before it began to lightning and storm. The storm was wicked!! The whole gang went to McDonald's to chill, then Ben and I went lightning chasing. We got some sick pictures. And it was pouring rain outside, and I just love storms.
Monday, April 8th. Today was a normal Monday...with the exception that I didn't have Physics in the morning. Holla :) I got to sleep in!! I went to chapel and class for the rest of the day. I got my Physics homework done before the captain's meeting, then did a little bit of homework before going to dinner. We had soccer practice outside, and it was absolutely amazing!! I had so much fun, even though it was cold outside. I watched the Nat'l championship for a bit with Ben at Bobby's house, then went to the Phonathon auction, where we couldn't catch a break and win anything cool. I then went back to chat with Ben.
Tuesday, April 9th Today was a normal Tuesday, with lifting in the morning, getting some work done in Jtop, class, and homework time before PCM. It was a crazy Tuesday at People's City Mission. I got the best news ever, though, when they cancelled little kids soccer, because of the weather. That meant I didn't need to rush back and have a crazy night. I had Fidelity, and we watched the video by Louie Giglio called Fruitcake and Ice Cream. Here's the link, check it out! http://youtu.be/nFS1jQzqOVQ
Taylor, Montana, and I then went to hang out in Ben's room and watch The Dark Knight Rises. Such an epic movie! I loved it. I definitely want to start from the beginning and watch the whole Batman series. I would watch again, most definitely.
Wednesday, April 10th Today was a normal Wednesday, with craziness all around, classes to go to, and leadership meeting, etc. I don't remember much about this day, to be honest. Stupid slacking on my end here. I do remember talking to Olivia during Meteorology & Oceanography. That's all I remember. Oh yeah! I went to the end of Praise, then hit up the library to do my DI application assignment :) It turned out pretty good!
Thursday, April 11th. Today was also a normal Thursday. We started with lifting, I had Physics lab, Differentiated Instruction was good, Taylor and I watched some HIMYM, then we had practice inside and we had this epic tournament! My team was Flem, Lou, Elyse, and I. We had a blast. We ended up losing in the championship to Jordan's team, but all was well, and we had a lot of fun. I hung out with Ben tonight, and it was great!
Friday, April 12th. Typical Friday beginning with Physics and ending with Interp. Taylor and I had some nice chats, and we went out to eat for Flem, Katrina, and Emily's birthday. We went to the Blue Room, which is Tai food. It was interesting, but not my first choice for food. I liked Taylor's Pad Thai the best. When we got back to Seward, Lou, Renae, Madi, Chelsea, and Elyse were in our room watching Twilight, so we joined the party.
Saturday, April 13th. This morning began bright and early with coaching the little kids. I had 4th grade boys to begin with, and it was a blast! I love that age group. I then had 3rd grade girls with Taylor, and that was fun as well. After coaching, we headed back to campus, and warmed up/showered. We ate lunch, then went to Ben and Montana's track meet, which was here today! It was great to watch, and was sunny outside, which was nice :) I love the sun! After the meet, I got ready for my date night with Ben :)))))))))))))) We went to Olive Garden and Red Mango, and it was just great. I love spending time with him :) Then we went back to his room, and we talked and talked and talked and talked some more. Basically, I just love talking to him :) He's so great. We had some really awesome conversations. God, thank you for Benjamin David Sievert ♥
Sunday, April 14th. I went to church with Montana, Tori, and Ben. I spent the afternoon working on some homework and such. Went on a bike ride while Ben ran. Worked IMs for the remainder of the night. I am glad to be finished with soccer. It was getting postponed left and right, and I am glad the weather finally cooperated.
Monday, April 15th. Just a normal Monday, as per usual. Class, chapel, more class, getting some homework done, captain's meeting, supper, and soccer practice. Oh and then I went to see Ben quick before playing an IM softball game, which we got our butts kicked in. Oh well! I got to come back and shower and get to bed before 11. #winning
Tuesday, April 16th. Today was a crazy Tuesday. It began bright and early with my alarm going off at 6:30. Lifting came next, except it wasn't actually lifting because Coach called us all into the lockerroom and told us she wouldn't be coaching next year. She will be pursuing her master's in Sport's Psychology, and decided to do that in Washington, closer to home. That was a shocker, and I definitely cried. After that, I went to DI's 8:30 class, then went to chapel, then went on my field trip to an 8th grade science classroom in York. It was really cool to see a completely Differentiated classroom in action. I would love for my classroom to look like that someday. We got back and I ate lunch with Ben, then got my Devo done after that. Then I headed to Lincoln for People's City Mission and Homework Club, and it was a pretty good day there. I came back, sprinted to my room, changed my clothes, then got my exegetical grade back! I got a 99 :) Woohooo!!! I was so excited, but had to contain myself a bit. Then when I got to my car I went crazy and called Ben and my parents to tell them :) I then went to coach the little kids and got preschool girls. It was fun :) Then I went straight to Fidelity, and we had some great chats. Finally, I got back to my room and breathed a little bit. Wowza, what a day. I showered, then I'm not sure what I did, but it probably involved doing homework, hanging out, or something of that sort.
Wednesday, April 17th. Another busy Wednesday with classes upon classes, but it turned out pretty good. We had some great conversation in Faith and Life. Reek had this amazing quote, and he was just firing from all cylinders! I couldn't take notes fast enough. I got some lunch, and then got to see Ben after lunch! We have been dating for 2 months today, just so you 3 people who read this know :) I got an Oreo Frappe today, and it was the most delicious thing I have ever tasted. Yum, Yum! I probably say that about a lot of things, but it all is haha :) I worked on some homework and talked to my mom, then went to help Marcie with her lab techniques project. My blood pressure is definitely low :) I ate dinner, finished my Oceanography homework just in time, and had night class. We also got out a little early, so I got to go to Praise, which was nice. Ben and I then worked on some homework after Praise before goin to bed.
Thursday, April 18th. Thursday, Thursday. Lifting started the day, then came chapel, physics lab, lunch, and differentiated instruction. After that, Taylor and I watched some HIMYM before getting ready for practice. We had practice in the gym again due to the snow that appeared on the ground overnight. It was pretty fun. And then came breakfast for dinner! Best day of the year, for sure!! I then came back and took a shower, then read a little bit before Ben came over, and we did some homework and chatted. Then everyone came over and we all went through old pictures on our computers and talked and then started watching Mulan. I love that movie!! Time flies when you're having fun, that's for sure. Before I knew it, it was 1:20, and Ben and I were still out in the lounge talking. Gotta love the late nights ♥
Friday, April 19th. Class like normal today, and it was a pretty nice day out, so I was excited about the change in weather. I hope this stays (and by the time I am writing this, I know it isn't going to). After class, I hung out with Ben for about an hour, then went back to David to get ready for our froomie dinner. (Future roommates). Madi curled all of our hair, and then Madi, Chelsea, Taylor, and I went to Lincoln to eat at Grisanti's. It was so yummy! I had such a food baby! After we returned, Tori, Montana, and Renae came over, then we were soon joined by Ben and Cody. We hung out, and I definitely fell asleep after awhile.
Saturday, April 20th. This morning was really, really chilly at coaching, but it was great to work with the 4th graders again. I headed back and got a warm shower, then ate some breakfast with Audrey. Then Taylor got back, and we watched some HIMYM before getting lunch. We headed to Doane for Ben and Montana's track meet, and they both had a stellar day. Ben won the 1500, and kicked but in the 800 with a PR of 1:56. His last lap of the 1500 he ran a PR of 54 seconds in the 400. That's insane! He was so fast!! It was fun to watch. After the meet, we picked up some Pizza, then joined Audrey in the game room to eat dinner. The pizza definitely hit the spot. After, I tagged along with Ben since Andy and Drew had made ribs and corn muffins, and it was just fun to just sit and chat with all of them. I don't know many of them that well, but Ben loves Andy and Drew, and they both are pretty hilarious. After that, we returned to David. Rach and Claire came to campus to say hi to everyone, and it was great to see them!! For the rest of the night, a bunch of us were in our room watching Captain America, which actually means I fell asleep on the ground for a majority of it. Life's good that way ♥
Sunday, April 21st. I got to sit with Ben upstairs for church, since he was playing trumpet. Easter is a continued celebration here at St. John, and I love it. After church came lunch, then I got some organizing, laundry, and a little bit of cleaning done. That felt good. Then I went on a bike ride while Ben ran, and after that went to the block party with Ben, Andy, and Drew. Pastor Matthias was there, and he is just a hoot. I love how down to earth he is. It started to rain a bit, but not terrible. After the block party, we went to the ACap concert, and it was absolutely amazing :) They are always so good. It started to storm while we were in the concert, and well timed thunder made one song sound extra super amazing. The storm was awesome, and the lightning was really bright. After that, Ben and I went bacck to his room for a bit before going to our room to play water pong with everyone. For never having played before, I did pretty well! We played a tourney, and I barely lost to Ben. It was a tough one, but I handled the loss with dignity haha.
Monday, April 22nd. Today was just a normal Monday with classes and study time and more classes. I got to see Ben twice today! Once doing homework between classes, and another during lunch! Best day ever :) We had a captain's meeting, and it was productive. It will be interesting to see what is to come in the next 4-5 months. After that, I did some homework, then went to dinner. Coach sent us a text saying practice was cancelled due to the weather, so Taylor and I played the Hallelujah Chorus and ran around dancing. I then went to get a workout in, did some abs, then played basketball. I beat him 3 games in a row again :) Moving on, Taylor and I watched HIMYM to end the night. I love my frienders ♥
There ya go, ya'll! Now, I promise, I will keep up on this day by day now. Holy man, I got so behind.
I will start from where I left off and give a brief synopsis.

Year 2 Days 124-131
Sorry about the slacking. Here's a brief update, and tonight I will start on the daily thing again.
Last Monday, we had soccer practice indoors, classes was typical, and it was just a normal Monday.
Tuesday was normal again, with early morning practice. Registration went by with breeze, and my Tuesdays and Thursdays are looking really nice next semester. I got to go to chapel with Ben, I went to People's City Mission, we got to leave early, and I studied the night away for my Meteorology test. On a positive note, Ben and I can do homework/study while in the same room. That's a plus haha :)
On Wednesday, it was my normal crazy day, but hey, I like busy. Class all day, went on a nice run outside since it was beautiful, had our Leadership meeting with Coach Mattera, took a Meteorology test, might have done decent, saw Ben in the music building and at Praise, hit the hay decently early.
Thursday was a wonderful day. First because it was beautiful outside. Second, we had practice and lifting early. I got done with class at 1, and that was great. That also meant I got to hang out with Ben a lot before leaving tomorrow :) We ran some errands so Walmart and the Library, then I went on a 5 mile bike ride while Ben was at practice. We made spaghetti for dinner, and it was yummy! Then we went to Maundy Thursday church at St. John, and it was a really great service. After that, Ben was on duty for the rest of the night, so we watched basketball, went on a walk, explored around campus, and just smiled :) Benjamin David Sievert is pretty amazing ♥
Friday, I woke up and said bye to Ben, then hit the road for home. I got back around 2:30, then unloaded and went to set up for the Easter breakfast at church. Then we went to Applebee's for supper, and we had lots of laughs :) I love my family. We went to church that night, and then after that I was down for the count trying to watch basketball, but definitely falling asleep.
Saturday, my mom, Leah, and I went to Maple Grove to go shopping. I got $7 jeans. Holla! I didn't find a dress though. Well, I did, but it was $50 and I didn't want to spend that much. So I think I will just go with the one I have, but we will keep looking and see.
Sunday was Easter :) He is risen, he is risen indeed. Alleluia :) My alarm went off at 4:45. Woohooo! Gotta love Easter breakfast! On the bright side, I am a professional pancake flipper now :) After church and the breakfast, we went to Granite City in Maple Grove for Easter lunch/buffet with my Aunt Pat, Uncle Greg, Tracey & Matt (and his parents), David and Ally (got engaged the night before ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) (oh and Ally's mom, grandma, sister, and sister's boyfriend, Mark, and then my family :) It was a great time. Ally's ring was gorgeous, and David and her are just the cutest couple possible. I just love them :) I took a solid nap in the afternoon while watching the basketball games. Did my laundry, packed up my stuff, made a candy run, and then went to bed.
Monday, I headed back to Nebraska. I got back right before 2, and it was great to be back that early. I can't believe there is only 5 weeks until summer. Crazy. Anyways, I went and got some food since I was starving, and Ben came with me :) Then I made the soccer schedule for intramurals, then Ben had to do his 10 mile run, so I biked with him. That was great! I love my bike ♥ We ate dinner, then went to Walmart since he needed to get some things. We ended the night watching Sound of Music and hanging out :)
Psalm 34, another good one :)
Last Monday, we had soccer practice indoors, classes was typical, and it was just a normal Monday.
Tuesday was normal again, with early morning practice. Registration went by with breeze, and my Tuesdays and Thursdays are looking really nice next semester. I got to go to chapel with Ben, I went to People's City Mission, we got to leave early, and I studied the night away for my Meteorology test. On a positive note, Ben and I can do homework/study while in the same room. That's a plus haha :)
On Wednesday, it was my normal crazy day, but hey, I like busy. Class all day, went on a nice run outside since it was beautiful, had our Leadership meeting with Coach Mattera, took a Meteorology test, might have done decent, saw Ben in the music building and at Praise, hit the hay decently early.
Thursday was a wonderful day. First because it was beautiful outside. Second, we had practice and lifting early. I got done with class at 1, and that was great. That also meant I got to hang out with Ben a lot before leaving tomorrow :) We ran some errands so Walmart and the Library, then I went on a 5 mile bike ride while Ben was at practice. We made spaghetti for dinner, and it was yummy! Then we went to Maundy Thursday church at St. John, and it was a really great service. After that, Ben was on duty for the rest of the night, so we watched basketball, went on a walk, explored around campus, and just smiled :) Benjamin David Sievert is pretty amazing ♥
Friday, I woke up and said bye to Ben, then hit the road for home. I got back around 2:30, then unloaded and went to set up for the Easter breakfast at church. Then we went to Applebee's for supper, and we had lots of laughs :) I love my family. We went to church that night, and then after that I was down for the count trying to watch basketball, but definitely falling asleep.
Saturday, my mom, Leah, and I went to Maple Grove to go shopping. I got $7 jeans. Holla! I didn't find a dress though. Well, I did, but it was $50 and I didn't want to spend that much. So I think I will just go with the one I have, but we will keep looking and see.
