2006:

This was a year on many firsts for me. Many terrific things have happened. I have made many lovely friends, continued many friendships, and gotten close to a few close people.

There have been many things that I have done this year that I wish I could take back, but I can't. I have messed up, said things I shouldn't have, done things I shouldn't have. I know that I can't take them back but I need to pray about them and I know God will help me get through them.

I want to start fresh. I want to never make some mistakes again. I want to be a better person, a better friend, and better Christ follower.

Lord, please help me in this new year to do your will and be a better person in your kingdom. Help me, I can't do it without you, in absolutely no way at all.

Life is fantastic

School is just a tad stressful right now, but I am so close to being done for the semester I can't help but be happy. it has been a good one, stressful but good. Many great classes, a few dumb ones, but you know.

I am writing a paper currently for my wisdom lit class. It is on Job 40:6-14 (it is 8-10 pages long about 9 verses, pretty sweet, huh?) I also have another paper due this week, but we won't talk about that one. I am ready for some Christmas celebration though.

I have made some good friendships this semester and strengthened others. I have lost some, but in the end everything will be fine. I have a great boyfriend, and look forward to spending more time with him. I look forward to spending much time with other great friends to, like Aleisha, Erin, Laura, and other camp people. Pretty much high school people are out of my life, for one reason or another is has been hard to stay connected. Some people are merely in our lives for a season though and destined to fall away, that is ok. It is the real people that count.

I got the chance to hang out with the coolest kid tonight.

I love my little 4 year old cousin, Micheal!

I also got to see his two week old brother, Matthew Joseph, he is a cutie.

We shall see the next time I update this thing.

I stink at life....as far as homework is concerned. I had a fabulous weekend however I definately should have done more homework than I did. :(

I hope everyone else is trying harder than I am.
