Year 2 Day 110

Monday, Monday. I slept til 9 today! Winning right there!

I then got up and went for a run. 25 degrees out wasn't even that bad! :) I came back and showered, ate a quick lunch, then headed to Dunn Bros to work on my exegetical.

I worked on my exegetical solid for 4 hours or so, then Emily and Kayla stopped by to say hi. It was great to see them :)

I went home and we ate dinner, then I headed to FCA with my bro and sis. DJ was speaking, so it was cool to hear him speak. I also got to see Rachel, which was great. Got to brag about Ben a bit (or a lot), so that's always fun :)

Caught the tail end of the Bachelor, and let me tell you, that rock is amazing! Really big. Way the heck to big for me. But it sparkled, that's for sure. And Sean cried, and it was just so cute! Awwww :)

I worked on my exegetical a bit more after that, but nothing too much. I lost my motivation after about 10 minutes because working in my bed just wasn't flowing. I need a table.

I watched a couple episodes of HIMYM. Marshall and Lilly are back together. Thank God, although I wasn't super worried about it, I knew it would happen.

I'm definitely the lucky one ♥

This is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ. Philippians 1:9-10


Year 2 Day 109

Sunday began nice and early for 8:00 church. Just the way I like it :)

Church was really great. Pastor Meyer gave an awesome sermon about control and how if we truly want to control our lives, we must completely relinquish the control to God.

My church is doing the Max Lucado book 3:16, so I went to that Bible study with my parents.

After church, I had long chats with my momma :)

After that, I finished watching Fireproof, which I had started last night. Such a great movie.

We all had Subway for dinner. I love when we all eat Subway on Sunday nights together. It reminds me of when we were little. We did that a lot when we were all in elementary school.

After supper, my plan was to watch Once Upon A Time with Leah...but I was out cold on the couch while she watched the show. I'm definitely a great sister. She woke me up at one point because my phone had lit up and Ben had texted me. That's all I really remember. I slept a little while longer after that haha. I was a little tired.

I then went over to Cal's house to watch the movie Argo. It was pretty good, I love the historical aspect off it, but it wasn't the best historical movie I've ever seen. It was about the hostages taken in Iran back in the late 70s, early 80s, and how they pretended to be a film crew in order to escape the country.

It was great to see Cal :)

After that, I returned home and watched HIMYM for awhile, preparing myself for the Exegetical day tomorrow.

3 I thank my God every time I remember you. 4 In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy 5 because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now,  Philippians 1:3-5

Year 2 Day 108

Yeah, I was definitely right about that whole internal alarm clock thing. 8:30 sharp this morning. Oh well, my bed was amazing :)

I took a shower and bummed around the house avoiding my large stack of homework, until my momma came home from work and my sis and her went shopping. We are searching for dressed for Kyle and Steph's wedding this summer. I did find one I liked at Target, but I will keep looking and come back to that one if need be. I'm not even sure what I want exactly, so I'll just keep looking for awhile. We did go into Ritzy Replay, though, so I saw Beth. She asked if I had a man in my life, and my mom said I turned Cherry Red and that it was just so cute to see me blush. Bring on the questions, people. I now can answer that question how I want to answer it :) Shout out to Ben, you're pretty great!

We came back and I started my ref recert stuff. I just needed to get it done. Shout out to Olivia for sending me your answers. I missed the video stuff by 3 points :) You da best!

We had spaghetti for dinner, my favorite! We were talking about worrying at some point, and we then were talking about how different it looks for Mom to worry vs Dad to worry. So Leah gets her sassy pants on and pretends to use Mom's voice and says, "Aug, he's not home. He said he was going to be home at 1:05, and it's 1:06" Bahahaha. We were all laughing so hard. I definitely felt a tear run down my face because of how hard I was laughing. It was the gang up on Mom kind of dinner :)

After dinner, I have worked on more reffing stuff, further continuing my streak of putting off homework. I have to start doing it tomorrow. It can't be put off anymore.

Exegetical, prepare to meet your maker. Oh, and Meteorology Homework, Differentiated Instruction paper, and Science homework. Yeah. Wow, I really don't want to do homework. But I have to. I have to.

And now, I might just watch Netflix for the rest of the night. I'm really tired, and Daylight's savings time is tonight, so I'm thinking it's a solid choice, me and my bed tonight.

May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you. 1 Thessalonians 3:12

Year 2 Day 107

I get to go home today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Physics this morning, chapel after that, making copies in the library, seeing Anna in Janzow Top!!! (She was visiting Whitie), then Faith and Life, ate lunch, came back loaded up my car, went to Interp, checked out of my room, then hit the road with Bekah :)

Bekah and I had a great time driving home. I enjoy her company :) We made really good time. I was home in about 7 hours 10 minutes, with a 15 minute food stop in there. Buckets right there.

When I got home, I sat and chatted with my mom and dad, then was getting tired, so I moved down to my room. My bro and sis got back from the 30 hour Famine around 12:30, so they came in and said hi. It's so great to see them :)

Now I shall sleep peacefully in my wonderful bed, not to be awoken before noon tomorrow. Okay. Let's be honest here. I will probably end up waking up before 9. Stupid internal alarm clock.

Home, sweet home ♥

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Ephesians 6:10

Year 2 Day 106

Thursday

I got to sleep in a bit this morning, which was nice. I didn't have 8:30 class, so that helped out a bit.

I went to eat breakfast, then went to chapel, Physics Lab (which was a blast! We got to work with electricity and current), ate a quick lunch, then went to Differentiated Instruction.

After class, I came back and changed my clothes to go lift and do bench max and pullups for testing. I only got 5 pullups, which is pathetic. I want to do more than that. Anywho, it doesn't matter really.

I biked to the library after that and started making copies of sources I will need for my exegetical. I'll be hitting that one hardcore over break. I wish I was done with mine like some people are. That would be amazing.

I came back to my room and was by myself for awhile, which was a nice change of pace. I just worked on Ben's project for Spring Break, and did some homework. It was relaxing.

I went to dinner, then returned to my spot and finished the project.

I then packed up all of my stuff for break, which didn't take me very long. I was efficient this time :)

The night ended with Ben coming over for a bit, then Cody, Taylor, Ben, and I watching Brave. Taylor fell asleep, I fell asleep for a little while, the boys stayed awake though.

Said bye to Ben for 10 days. It will go by fast though ♥

And at the end of this night, all I could do was smile :)))))))))))))))))

Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. 
1 Corinthians 15:58

Year 2 Day 105

Well today was just at typical busy busy Wednesday, but I will give you the quick lowdown.

Physics class, chapel, homework break, Faith and Life, practice with the recruit, Interp, Science, and a nap covered all of my time from 7:30-4:00.

Around 4, I headed to Ben's room to see the beer pong table he won through this app thing. Now, he won't be using it for beer pong, so don't you peeps reading this worry, but it was a pretty nice table. I would do homework on it, that's for sure! Or play water pong :)

After seeing that, I headed to our Leadership meeting, which was really good today. There was lots of laughing. We're all straight up exhausted haha.

After that, I went to eat dinner at Katelyn's house with Ben, and then Katelyn's boyfriend, Bobby. It was delicious, and I definitely felt honored to be able to eat with them :)

Night class came next. I am fully understanding everything, paying attention in class, and my homework was done beforehand. Winning right there. Because of all of this, I justified leaving class early for an Intramural basketball game.

We ended up losing by 2, but I lit it up with 4 3s, so it was fun :)

After that, I showered then hung out with Ben for a long time. Maybe like 2:30 a.m. Oh well, I will sleep when I'm dead :)

Blessed, blessed, blessed.

To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen. Philippians 4:20

Year 2 Day 104

Tuesday, Tuesday. I want a snow day like Buffalo!! That would have been sweet!

I woke up this morning, we did some fitness testing, mine went better than last time, it was solid. Praise The Lord!

After that came breakfast and my weight training final, which was really easy. I got hot chocolate from the coffee shop before going to chapel.

I showered and chatted with Lou for a bit before working on a project, then going to lunch.

I had Differentiated Instruction, and that class is always great. I love being a teacher :)

I cranked out a nice Faith and Life paper after that with a newfound sense of motivation. It turned out pretty well, which I was excited about.

People's City Mission came next, and it was really relaxing today with just four kids, and all of the working on math. I love teaching math :)

After that came dinner, then my meteorology homework learning about winds. I attempted to watch Pretty Little Liars, but fell asleep for a solid hour instead. Oh well!

I finished the homework, and Ben came over and we hung out for the rest of the night :)

Smiles upon smiles, I'm blessed :)
