Adding friends
Just so people know my friends policy: I post most of my entries as friends only. So, unless you have a LiveJournal account and I have added you as a friend you will not be able to read the bulk of my journal. I generally will only add people as friends who I know in real life. If you want me to add you as a friend feel free to leave a comment ( Read more... ) -
Books
So, I LOVE to read and found this list of the top 100 Books as defined by the BBC. The idea is that you're supposed to go through and put the ones you've read in bold and the ones you'd like to read in italics. All in all there were 24 that I have already read and another 28 that I would definitely like to read. When I was much younger I wanted ( Read more... ) -
Graduating
I did it! I finally graduated! Hooray!! The whole experience was a lot cooler than I had anticipated. Obviously, graduating from college is a huge milestone and I was definitely proud of myself for making it to that point, but I guess it just hadn't set in that I really was done, and what I had accomplished. Before graduation I hadn't really ( Read more... ) -
Movies I've seen
I know, I really need to write a real entry updating what's going on in my life, but I don't have time for that. Although, apparently I have time to take surveys with no real meaning to me. *it only took 5 minutes, and it was what I did to help me get from fast asleep to semi-awake this morning* Anyways, people are constantly amazed when I tell ( Read more... ) -
Here is rug!
Well, this is my eleventh YA tour and I think I finally have the story that tops all of my other host family stories. See, every day on tour we stay in the homes of members. People who we don’t even know take us into their home for a night. It’s kind of a strange system, you meet these complete strangers and go and spend the night in their home ( Read more... ) -

Homes
Just a thought i was having tonight as I was at the home a friend of mine. In my opinion, the difference between a house and a home is a family. As much as I love my roommates and I enjoy where we're living and it is a more and more enjoyable place to live all the time... it will never be home. For the simple reason that my family is not here. ( Read more... ) -
Favorite Scriptures
One of my friends asked everyone to send in their three favorite scriptures and why they are our favorites for a personal project she is doing. It looked like a really fun project so I sent her my three, and I decided that I wanted to post them up here as well.
I don't know if I'll be able to give you my three all time favorite scriptures... ( Read more... ) -
Second first impressions
So I had the weirdest thing happen today. I saw two people and I had a "second first impression" of them. I don't know how else to describe it. They were both people who I used to see on a regular basis. It was just really weird I guess to see them again. More so I guess to realize that they were different from how I remembered them. Not in ( Read more... ) -
Random Thought of the Day
Ok... so here's my random thought for today. Have you ever noticed that people give you more credibility when you quote someone else? For example, if I were to say that the earth is round, you may take it or leave it. However, if I tell you that Copernicus stated that the earth is round, all of a sudden that statement has more depth and meaning ( Read more... )
