| I'm now a sista of Pi Zeta Phi!! Last night (induction) was amazing and crazy and messy, etc. I just love my sisters and I can't wait to go crazy with them in this collegic journey.
I'm not allowed to post any pictures of induction on the internet. haha. that was rule #4.
This week is Greek Week and we have to do a ton of crazy things. YAY!

| It's so good to be back! Classes have been great so far...today was the start of it all.
I'm really optomistic about this semester with Rush, and a chance to start over with good
grades. Good times.
Well,I love being at OC a ton, but I miss my dog.
In these pictures I look a little roughed up but that's just because I had been at the lake
that day. But I really do love my dog. He's about 6 months old now and he has already
been to puppy school.
Cute huh? He's a yellow lab and his name is Reagan.
We are soooo mischievious. I love that puppy dawg. He's definitely my baby.

| OC in less than 6 days!
There's so much to do this week. Packing, getting my hair highlighted,
and more packing. I'm so ready to be back in the dorms and out of my
house.
This summer was the highlight of summers tho. I worked 2 jobs; the
Chestnut tree tea room and AE. I preferred the tea room over the
stuck-up staff at AE, but both were good experiences. I painted my room
this summer and made a lot of changes. I can't wait to move into the
dorm and redecorate with better taste.
EYW anybody?!!? Ben, Jeni, Cody and Kari, ETC. I miss everyone and I'm
glad we can be with good buddies again after the summer. Dry Gulch will
be a blast to help out as a staff dudette. Cafeteria food is probably
the only thing i'm not looking forward to this fall. I'll put it
bluntly. It sucks. Maybe I should get a new refrigerator so I can stock
it with REAL FOOD.
Yay for OC, yay for college life. If I was 21 I would be lifting my
glass to all of my buddies I miss right now. Bottoms up! Love you all.

| Sometimes I just want to be treated like an adult. You know, make
decisions on my own and be trusted to do it well. I know I'm not old
yet, but I'm 19. I think that's old enough to have responsibility. At
what age does adulthood begin? I guess it's different for everyone.
Maybe it's whatever age you decide for yourself to have purpose and to
succeed in that purpose as best you can.
I painted this picture in my 10th grade art class. You can't tell the
colors since it's in black and white. Most of it was painted in basic
kid paint. A couple months ago when I got home from college, I
repainted the background with oil paints my mother got me for my
birthday. Maybe when I changed the painting, it was a result in
something changing in me. I wanted to reflect the change onto the tiny
posterboard. When we change in life little by little, we are cleaning
something out and replacing it with something new and possibly better.
I certainly hope the painting looks better. I think when we change it's
because we actually want
something better. This just goes to say that I am looking to improve
and invent my purpose from what I knew to be true. God has a purpose,
yes. He guides our steps into what we will become. And inside of
ourselves is where we find the inspiration for direction and strength.
Hope yall are having a good summer. I look forward to packing up my room and returning to OC where life is more exciting =).
I'm sorry for the boring post, but I can't help my thinking.

| I like to be in control of my life. Or at least know where its taking me. Just like I'm the one
driving, but I'm also the one with the roadmap. I hate the idea that I may be driving with a
blindfold and let the navigator tell me what to do and where to go. I know some people go
on through life with the focus of taking advantage of the opportunities that lie ahead of
them. It was this that brought the thought into my head: if I keep trying to control what
goes on in my life, I may miss those opportunities that are right under
my nose. This may be hard to understand. But is anything really easy to
understand?
Look at this picture. It's the Denton old courthouse on the square. It's been redone a
couple times and it's beautiful now. But think about how much it has been manipulated by
weather and change. It has endured all kinds of things like bird crap and rain. It has seen
(if walls could talk) so many things happen at this square for more than a century. Couples,
families, celebrations. It has grown beautiful through all the change it has endured.
I think I'm going through a growing point right now. I just want to know my purpose in life,
where it's taking me, and what can I contribute. They say that if you believe in yourself
you'll do amazing things and get far.
These lyrics stick in my mind:
"When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse"
-Coldplay, Fix You
