| Alright, Rosie, here they are:
1. When i was 5, i was too peppy and energetic for the ballet class i wanted to take, so after just one session, they bumped me into gymnastics.
2. In middle school, i got my hair cut b/c a boy said i should. yeah, never do that :)
3. First (and only) date: fall of my junior year in college...brought on some unwanted drama which i'd rather not discuss
4. sometimes i think that being the admin. asst. to my youth pastor back home like i did this summer would be just fine for my "career". do i have to want more than that?
5. i truly did like Phelps food! | | |
| Christmas?! the last time i updated was before christmas?! that just won't do!
alright, sparky, here's the plan...we'll get to bed at a relatively decent hour, so that every morning we can get up early to do devotions and work out at the dow. that should be a good start to the day, don't you think?
wanna know something exciting? i have scheduled my first shadow-a-nurse shift! i'm extremely excited and will be working with the one and only Nancy McCleery (yeah, i don't know who she is, either) in OB/maternity at Zeeland Community Hospital. That'll be happening on Feb. 22, so ask me about it :)
lots to talk about right now, but i don't want to give it all away here...so im me, visit me, e-mail me, you know...converse like normal people. and then you can tell me all about your life right now too! | | |

so what do YOU like about this wonderful season? | | |
| woah! sorry to leave you all with such a depressing entry. i didn't even remember i'd put that up there.
summer was interesting. got to know some of my friends from home better than i'd known them all through high school. did some crazy stuff. went to my first club...an 18 & over country dancing club...which was so much fun!
really glad i went on that trip to egypt. i have pictures now, if you care to see them. it wasn't like any trip i've been on before. instead of being a spiritual high, it was more of a valley that got me excited to climb to my own mountaintop when i got home.
so that's what i'm working on now...making this the most God-centered, Kingdom-productive, exciting, fulfilling, enjoyable year of my life thus far. if you have any suggestions to help in this process, i'd love to hear your words of wisdom...any comment would make my day, though :) | | |
| extreme frustration and sadness is setting in and i don't know what to do! so i only have a week left at home before this big egypt trip, but i don't know if i can take it. i also don't know if i can even describe the weirdness of coming home for 6 weeks after being away at college for 8 months. i knew i would change. i knew everybody at home would change. what i didn't know was how this would present itself as a problem. they've moved on and i've moved on, but the place and the person i've moved on to is not here, at 'home'. i am having such a difficult time finding where i fit in here now and what to do with myself. i can't come back when nobody else is back where i was before i left. i can't move on b/c this is not where or what i have moved on to. 6 weeks was too short a time to get a job, so there's nothing new here for me that can help me move on. so it's like i'm visiting a past that's not even here anymore.
this probably makes no sense whatsoever. oh, well. i needed a vent so now you get to read about it. assuming people even read this thing, which somehow i doubt right now.
well, i can't leave alleged readers on that note so... | | |
