Today has been such a crazy day!

But pretty much I stayed in my apartment all day and didn't leave the house at all till like eight at night! Sometimes we all need days like that though! But I had so much fun getting to know my room mates better! But we miss our dearest Anika and pray for her safe return!

So pretty much I just want time to go by really fast right now. Just like the next seven months to be exact! :D

Anyway... Well. I don't really have anything else to say! Good night world! And good night yummy home made ice cream me and jennie made! Cookies and cream... YUM!

Being Humbled

Hey everybody! Just so ya'll know, I have moved into a new apartment! And don't have Internet or electricity for that matter... but I am just letting you know, I haven't died or anything like that.

Today I am in my HOT no AC apartment, just being tired and wanting electricity sooo bad! But I was thinking about how fortunate and lucky we are to have what we have, and how much we as people take that kind of stuff for granted. I now thank my Heavenly Father for everything He gives me and MEAN IT!

I can't wait to have elecricity again!!!

What would happen if I posted EVERY DAY???!!!

If I did, the world would probably explode. I have been posting recently though because I am bored out of my mind!!!

So let me tell you about my day.

I woke up, ran some errands with room mates, stuffed myself full of food, then came back home, took pictures of lovely people, then ate more food, then drew an ugly thing that was suppose to be my face, then got on here.

SEE HOW BORING MY LIFE IS? HOW AM I GOING TO STAY SANE OVER THE SUMMER??? HOPEFULLY GET A JOB.

Meheheh... I am having a break down... Did you notice that when I use an excesive amount of punctuation I always have them in three or multipules of five? Yup, that's because I like it that way.

I really need to sleep or something...

Once upon a time... I am going to miss these girls a bunch. And tonight they left me bored at home, by myself. But i really will miss them a lot...

I kinda miss this guy... A LOT.

Long Time No Blog!

So yeah, haven't posted in forever, but not that anyone reads this right? Anyway, just letting you all know that I am alive, and I am now nineteen, and staying in Thatcher over the summer and I am changing my major to MUSIC. There ya are!

I'm sorry if I am seeming short and not myself, lately I have been having these panic attacks... I just get all nervous and shaky and sweaty and I don't know why. But I probably have a disorder or something like that. Everyone does right?

Anyway... Yup. That's all I wanted to say. I will probably post later this week about how much I am going to miss my room mates and how excited I am for my new ones!

Okay, So This Post is Going to Be a Little Sparatic and Random...

Yup, the title of this post pretty much explains it all. I can't actually say that I know what I am going to be telling you at this point, so here we go...

So there is this song we are singing in A Capella called "How Can I Keep from Singing?" and I super love it. I love the musical-ness of it, but the lyrics are what really hit home. The lyrics are as follows (for the most part. This is actually the original poem with editing by myself) :

My life goes on in endless song:
Above earth's lamentation,
I [hear] the [real], tho' far-off hymn
That hails a new creation.
Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear the music ringing;
It [sounds] an echo in my soul--
How can I keep from singing?

When tyrants tremble, sick with fear,
And hear their death-knell ringing,
When friends rejoice both far and near,
How can I keep from singing?
In prison cell and dungeon vile,
Our thoughts to them go winging;
When friends by shame are undefiled,
How can I keep from singing?
What [if] my joys and comforts die?
[I know that truth is living];
What tho' the darkness [round me calls]?
[Still truth it's light is giving].
No storm can shake my inmost calm,
While to that [rock I'm] clinging;
Since [Love] is Lord of heaven and earth,
How can I keep from singing?
I lift my eyes; the cloud grows thin;
I see the blue above it;
And day by day this pathway smooths,
Since first I learned to love it.
The peace of [Love] makes fresh my heart,
[a song of hope is bringing];
All things are mine since [truth I've found]--
How can I keep from singing?
This song pretty much fills my whole soul with joy, and I feel this song is so applicable to me. I am having a pretty rough time in my life right now, wondering what I am going to do in Snowflake and whatnot, but I know if I trust in God that He will make my pathway smooth if I trust in Him and have faith that what I am doing is what He wants and is the best for me. And the peace of His love overwhelms my whole being every day.

A lot of times in our lives, something unexpected comes our way that we don't understand. We feel as if there is so much grief and pain and hatred in the world today that life is near impossible to handle, but it is those griefs and disappointments that help us to appreciate the things in our life that are good. God wants us to know that He loves us, and I think that's why He sends trials our way, so that we know He wants us to come to Him and to learn and grow in our time on earth.
