| Wow, it's been three months...So much has happened since I last posted!
I'm back at school! I missed it while I was home, but now that I'm here I miss home. But I'm not discontent. I know this is where God wants me to be.
It's strange to come back to a place you love. Nothing is ever the same. The people, the buildings, the way things are done...it's strange. Two of my best friends left Bryan and I feel the loss deeply. (I'm actually going to call one of them as soon as I finish!) But God is blessing me and giving me new friends.
I can't wait to see what God is doing with me. It'll be interesting, to say the least.

What Your Hands Say About You
|
You are logical, analytical, and rational. You have good verbal skills.
Idealistic and dreamy, you tend toward the impractical. You have a knack for getting yourself in sticky situations.
Brainy and intelligent, you are intellectual to the point of being incomprehensible.
Your emotions tend to be well though out. You're willing to wait out a bad situation, and you're never too quick to act.

| Today my mom and I went to the hospital to pray with a family from our church. Their one year old son fell into a pool, and as far as they know was there for forty-five minutes. Now he's on life support in the pediatrics ICU. Looking at his small body heaving as the respirator forced air into his lungs, hearing his mother and grandmother sob as we prayed over that small form tore my heart. At church tonight Pastor Darrell had us all hold hands and pray for them. I know his family would appreciate it if you would say a prayer for little Michal Angel, too.
My brother is having his wisdom teeth out tomorrow. Maybe that's why he just told me I smell like a burned-out vacuum.

| Penny for your Prayers...I would appreciate prayer. It seems like all I've done since I came home is visit doctors. Today I had an MRI so the doctor can better see what is going on with my wrist. Tomorrow I go for blood tests because of my really low iron levels.
I hate being like this. I just want to get well so I can do everything I was made to do.
Fortunately I have my trip to South America Missions headquarters to look forward to. Now I just need to figure out when I'm getting there...

| I had my one and only final this morning. I am most definitely not a fan of standardized, cumulative-over-two-semesters chemistry finals. Half-way through, A.J. walked out and yelled "I'm free!" just like a girl. It felt so good to laugh...
It's been a hard past few days. Yesterday Calista left. This morning was the chem final, and I just found out that Andrew is leaving this afternoon, and I still have quite a bit of packing to do. It won't be really lonely because I'm leaving tomorrow (yay for grandparents coming to pick me up!) but it's so sad to think I won't be able to see two of my best friends for such a long time. Thank God I live during the time of internet and cell phones!
Now my freshmen year's over...I finally have an idea of what I'm doing with my time at college and my life. I can't wait until next semester when I'll actually have a clue (if only one)!
