It's been an extremely long time since I posted. The funny thing is, not much has changed. I do think I'm getting better at juggling life, but feel as if sooner or later something will have to get the boot. We'll see, no big decisions as of yet. (oh, and FYI, school is not one of the bootable options)

RA-ing goes on without incident. I either have an extremely well behaved floor or I'm not good at paying attention. Maybe, if they are doing things they aren't supposed to, they'll continue to do them elsewhere. I know that may sound horrible, but it really isn't fun having to bust a bunch of girls who seem to think the legal drinking age should be 18. Not so much.

I finally got to see Sarah Joy's new apartment. I really should feel lucky that I have a best friend who is not moving on with her life in another city or another state. For some reason, not seeing her when I know she's 10 minutes away is getting a lot harder than if she was hours away. Hmmm...that sounds confusing. Basically, I want to see her and never really do (no particular person's fault) so it's painful knowing she lives just down the road and that doesn't change much of anything. And with Rachel heading out to OR, I'm really needing to pour into other friendships cause I'm feeling the distance (of both Rachel and kinda the "lack of distance" distance from Sarah Joy). Side note: I need to start lifting again cause I carried some stuff into Sarah's place and I have a knot the size of Houston in my shoulder. Who knew clothes could weigh so much?

I get to go home this week and then to Point next week and I'm totally psyched. I'm missing my family big time lately too, so it will be nice to spend some time with them. My mom even took off work to spend the day with me. How can she know me so well even after I've been out of the house for so long? Definitely a mom thing. Too bad that day has to end with some dental work. Boo to the dentist; yay to my mom!

My trip to Point also will involve some reuniting intermingled with an eye appointment (yay new glasses I can actually wear), a dermatologist appointment (please pray for me, I'm kinda nervous to find out what's wrong with me. Even though I trust God fully, I don't have any idea what the verdict will be), and a hair appointment (woohoo for no split ends!). I'm excited for the day with old friends, including dinner with good, old 8S. Can't wait!

What else to talk about...
Sadly enough as it is to admit this, my frequency of severely girly moments has increased as of late. God has, no surprise, been ever so faithful in providing me with what I need. I'm always reminded of the worship song, "All of You is more than enough for all of me, for every hurt and every need..." He really is all that I need and is enough to satisfy every part of my life. I just get so easily caught up in the desire to be with someone. Nothing beyond someone who will hold me, play with my hair, hold my hand and tell me everything's gonna be okay. As I'm reading what I'm writing, I honestly know that this is the role of Christ in my life. He is the man in my life until that other person comes along and steps in. What can I say, I'm not perfect, I tend to lose sight of this specific thing very easily.

Well, I really should cut this update short. (yeah, a bit late for that) I could talk a lot more about a lot of other things, but that's for another time. My heart is with the one I care about and needs to be close to God right now. (you know who you are) Let others encourage and strengthen you and don't be discouraged by words meant to be uplifting. It's never easy to hear from others the things that might be wrong in your own life. I pray you can be accepting and allow God to touch you through them. Please know I cannot be mad at you. Any disappointment comes from my desire to see you grow spiritually and be healthy and joyous in all you do. I love you, you're my best friend and no matter where our roads take us, I will always be there for you. Always.

Until next time...
