| The only time I have time for these is over a break... I've written like two of these and I would close them after I finished.... What's new, what's new... Over the Christmas break I made a valiant attempt at snowboarding. I went into thinking that I cannot fail, which is amazing if you've ever been on a high like that, unfortunately that doesn't make up for a lack of snowboarding lessons. I decided that, at the risk of sounding like an R. Kelly song, If I could see it, then I could do it. So all I ended up doing was sliding down the mountain a couple times and after that and almost hitting a tree, I was completely exhausted. I used to make fun of people who ran into trees... God made fun of me that day. May I live to be a hundred and never make fun of people who run into trees again!! | | |
| *** To everyone who feels the same way I do... A wise lady once said to me "When we get busy we tend to put God last telling ourselves 'we don't have time', or 'we'll read later, we'll talk later....' or 'We have too much responsibility... we'll pray later' and in these times when we have so much on our plate we should be spending even more time in prayer and with God because we need more help than ever."***
So, my life's like this... busy. I'm now making appointments to talk to people on the phone. I'm not that important.. what's going on here? What's funnier is when people miss their appointments or call without an appointment and I don't have time to talk. I just keep wondering, is this what the rest of my life is going to be like? Is it only going to get busier? I'm tired of not having time to talk . I'm to a point where I just don't take calls all the while making a mental note to just call back; I never remember to call people back! I have to find a better system. Things are getting ridiculous and I'm afraid of breaking down even though so far God's been good to me and has kept me sane. I just have to be better about returning calls now... I will fix this!!
P.S. I'm not actually reading that book right now..... that's me wishing I had time to read that book.... I have that book... I look at that book everyday..... but I'm not reading it... nope, not even a little bit. | | |
| So, SING is all the buzz these days. Need I say more? Can I just say that? I'm overwhelmed and yet... and yet I finally find time to write in my xanga. I've decided that I don't like xanga, that it's just one more thing that I have to keep up with. I've never been an organized person and I'm being shoved into a crash course of Organization 101, which so far I'm pretty much failing, but right now I'm learning to cope with it by just carrying everything at all times. I have books for every class, binders for every organization, and notebooks for every detail of my life; everything is written down somewhere because I can't afford to forget anything. In this over packing phase more often than not I find myself in class with all my books, binders, and notebooks but without a working pen.... what are the odds? My bag is no longer big enough and my little red wagon from the second grade is starting to look like a GREAT idea. How am I dealing with this? By the grace of God. Right now my life is like swimming, if you stop you sink. So, just keep swimming, just keep swimming, swimming, swimming..... | | |
| So it's true, I've had a Xanga since February, I'm a closet Xanga...person. Who knew? I mean I've updated it all of never. Thanks Normy for keeping my secret, but I'm going public with this.
This summer has been amazing, but I'm ready for school to start. No, I take that back, I am ready for football season. I was out at the track earlier, and I just stopped to look at the field because I am decidedly a total freak about football season and I just wanted to stop and soak it all up. I thought about all the games that I've been to over the past few years and it just brought back floods of memories. Just to be completely smug for a sec, I'm so glad we have such an amazing team, I'd like to imagine that HSU would be gracious losers... but I can't be certain and I really hope that we never have to find out. Speaking of which, practice starts this week, so I'd better say goodnight! | | |

So I finally set up a site... Why? Basically because my best friend Amy said that she was going to come here and set one up for me if I didn't... So now she can just come here and hang out!! YAY!!! So now that it's taken me forever to do this, I'm tired and I'm going to go to bed. I may never use this site again, but here you go Amy Whynn, come to Abilene and play at Ghatti town. Goodnight folks. | | |
