Classes at Waubonsee have officially started. So far, I love it!

Here's the crazy part.....I'm only taking two classes, and in each class there is someone I know from outside of class, and we didn't even plan it. Not only that, but both of these people happen to be friends of mine whom I've known for 12+ years! Isn't it awesome how God works these things out?

I ran into so many people that I knew when I was walking to and from class. Small world, right? :)
Both of my professors are super nice and understanding. I'm going to have a great year.

So that was last week. Work is finally slowing down, giving me more time for school(not much). So far so great. I got this. ;)

Today is a special day. My *almost* brother would have been twelve(Wow, I feel so old).

Life is precious.


I'm really excited about this week and the next. My first speech and first test of the year will be "under my belt"...Annd there are a few more exciting things happening, which you'll hear about later. ;)

Love you all!

Summer is almost over. The strange thing is, I'm actually a little excited about starting school again next week. I'm excited about learning again. :) Working less will be nice too.

Monday I went to Waubonsee to see where my classes are for this semester.
Tuesday through today....working.

Okay, I'm not a big oatmeal person, but one morning I made some baked blueberry oatmeal, and it was actually really tasty. You should try it!

Oh! And I hung out with Levi, one last time before he leaves for college. :( I'm gonna miss him! (Forgot to take pictures...ugh.)

I played volleyball with church friends tonight. There was another group of people there that we challenged to a game. They weren't half bad. :)



Yep, this week has been good so far. Life is beautiful.

Compassion, Anyone?

This morning I got up pretty early (for a Saturday) and made "Breakfast grilled cheese"with Jenn.  It consisted of two pieces of french toast and a yummy cream-cheese/powdered sugar mixture with blueberries. It was super tasty. :)

I started a devo book a few days ago that is REALLY good so far. It's a book for girls and I would highly recommend it to any of you ladies out there in need of a good book for your morning devos. :)


Today's "character" was "Compassion". What hit me the hardest was that Jesus had an insanely busy life, ministering to and healing people everywhere. He was so famous that *everyone* who was sick or demon possessed was coming to him (And I thought I had a busy schedule). Yet, He had compassion towards all of them. One thing I realized while I was reading this chapter was that Jesus could have just healed everyone all at once if He wanted. He could have just spoken one word and instantly healed everyone, but He chose to minister to people individually. That's pretty awesome. If I had the capability to speak one word and have all of my jobs/chores/tasks for the day done, I certainly would have a hard time resisting. Jesus is so awesome. :)

Anyway, thats my thoughts on today. I had more to say but I'm running out of time.Thanks for listening. Love you all. :)
