*a quick note: life is amazing. I love my internship. I love my school. I love my friends. My friends love me. Everything rocks. End note, commence quick, enigmatic rant ( Read more... )

It has been ridiculously long since I last updated. Well, folks, I made it through my first year of grad school unscathed! And even though I lost my soul to the library during finals week, it's an amazing feeling to be totally in love with what I'm doing. I love theology. And the longer I stay here, the longer my program gets...I'm going to add ( Read more... )

7 years ago today I was diagnosed with epilepsy. I really, truly don't mean for that to sound morbid--I honestly forgot about the significance of "March 8th" in my life until a dear friend brought it up a couple days ago. Today I find myself really reflective, as anyone would be on a day like today. I find that as time goes on, March 8th has ( Read more... )

Okay, so I'm still studying like mad for the big finals (woot for Old Testament/New Testament Archaeology and History!), but I just had to update again because I find myself (once again) feeling sublimely happy. Even though I not only am having seizures, but also seem to be getting bronchitis. Why am I feeling so chipper? Because I have awesome ( Read more... )

Although finals are looming on the very near horizon, I felt moved to update simply by virtue of the fact that I'm feeling...well, just happy :-) Not that this is an unusual thing, but have you ever had one of those moments where you look around and think "Life is good"? Well, bingo babycakes--that's where I am. And it's intersting--I didn't just ( Read more... )

So we just finished up the first season of Lost, and I am an emotional WRECK. For the love, that show is INTENSE (quick shout out to my boys: /\). Anyway, I don't know if I'm going to go to sleep anytime soon, thus I'm here :-) Not much has been going on as of late that's terribly exciting...I had a really bad seizure week, coupled with what may ( Read more... )

I stole this from Kristina's MySpace profile (p.s. MySpace has just stolen my soul). Thought this could be fun...fill it out, and I'll do the same for you ( Read more... )

I have no idea how do describe this week back at Olaf...it was just so amazing. And not for any of the reasons I thought it would be; it was such a heartwarming "homecoming," so to speak, in ways I hadn't predicted. First of all, it WAS a little weird to be at Olaf, but to not be part of the school anymore--I felt a little bit like a ghost ( Read more... )

There comes a day where you wake up and decide it's time to stop being who you think everyone wants you to be and start being you are. For me, that day was today ( Read more... )

Man, I should be in bed right now. But I am just SO sublimely happy. I had to write! Things at Div School are going above and beyond my expectations (which isn't all that incredible, I guess, because my expectations were pretty low :-) ). But seriously, I know I've only been there three days, but I just love it. It is the most progressive, ( Read more... )
