justify that, please.
I'm struggling with a lot of conviction lately. I don't know if it's because of this book I'm reading (the previously mentioned Better Off by Eric Brende...yes, STILL. I don't know what's taking me so long) or because of recent missions trips that did not include me, or what. I'm just finding it really hard to justify my own consumerism when ( Read more... ) -

I guess we sent the money to MtA yesterday, which basically means I'm bound to go to school there. I'm pretty excited. I make all of these plans of summer studies in Europe, purchases I need to make, what minor(s) to do, clubs I'll join (most of them dancing), whether I should take piano lessons, which of the churches I should go to (there are ( Read more... ) -

Phantom of the Opera was pretty darn sweet. I wish I could remember it better than I am at the moment, but it was incredible, moving, dramatic, and breathtaking. I drank it in the best I could ( Read more... ) -

Little did I know, he researched and phoned people and schools to find out for me (what a good guy!). Acadia, a school I've been eyeing, apparently has an excellent graduate ( Read more... ) -

Pretty sure I have a huge thing for this fictional character on the TV show Criminal Minds. I found myself protesting at the television last week and begging with it this week. Attachment, anyone? I felt for him so much...like, what do you do? GAAAAH REID. -
revision
so one boring day i made a list of stuff that would be really cool. i've just stroked a couple more things off of it. however, i would like to revisit it, because obviously (or hopefully) people at this stage in life change over the course of eight months. it's good to revise your goals occasionally, and remind yourself of what they mean to you, ( Read more... ) -
aaaaaaah thoughtattack.
So I have a five hour drive to do on a weekly basis (frequently alone), which is beautiful because it gives me a chance to listen to music uninterrupted and let the lyrics instigate thought process or create questions. Today, the influence came from the Kids in the Way (sidenote: AWESOME LIVE) song called This Could Be the Song that Will Change ( Read more... ) -

I saw a double rainbow a few days ago for the second time in as many months. I have the feeling that it's going to be a glorious year. -
