Amazing Realizations I've Had Over The Past 46 Days.

1. God does answer prayers, especially in ways truly more wonderful than anything you could have hoped for.And the timing, always beautiful and perfect.

2. Working 40 hour weeks is hard. But that is the cost of being an adult & feeling independent and millions of people do it everyday.

3. I don't think my calling is with young children. Middle school maybe. Waiting on God for this one...

4. Sleeping for 14 hours is a great idea!

5. It is funny how you can spend a week outdoors and the first thing you want to do in the morning is go out on your bike.

6. Not everything that is lost or broken has to be lost or broken forever.

7. Sometimes you just want to kiss people on the cheek because they are so wonderful and precious to your heart. And if they are cool with it, it's okay to carry that out.

8. Watching the BBC version of the Great Gatsby might help you feel less/more lonely.

9. I haven't done yoga for 7 weeks and it is awful.

10. I want to be the Betty Suarez of my workplace.

11. British flag bikinis are kind of perfection.

12. Carry rain gear everywhere, even when you are positive it won't rain; it is a very good idea.

13. I will never forget you.

So, it has been crazy and a crazy long time since an update. Here's what it's been like,
Week 1: Choir Tour
Week 2: Vacation Bible School and work afterwards
Week 3: Work, work, work!
Week 4: Camp as middle school counselor
Week 5: Work for two days, then 3rd/4th grade counselor for rest of week
Week 6: Back to work, the 4th, and work!

I don't even have all the Choir Tour pictures and videos uploaded yet. My laptop get full so quickly! Though I haven't been on top organization (or blogging), I have been keeping a mean budget, saving for Harry Potter World, College, and for a new....drumrolllllll............ LAPTOP!!!!!

 I don't know what kind to get, but I'd prefer something that has more than 73 GB of hard drive space, and would be great to take to college with me. Oh, and below $500 would be sweet too.  Tell me all about your favorite laptop, weather it is yours for realz or just the best you've seen. Because I have no idea of what to get.

I just beautified my room majorly in the last two days, so I am ready to start doing yoga, enjoying TV shows fully, and writing graduation thank-yous and letters! I saw Drew before going to camp the second time. 5 weeks without seeing one of your best friends is rough. He looked half a foot taller and so different!

Here is 39 seconds of some of my favorite moments in the past few weeks, via my friends' Vines.

Until I get more room on my computer/ get a new laptop, posting pictures is going to be really hard to do. Did you like hearing about Choir Tour in posts about each day like last time? 

I have lots more to tell,but, this is already a long post. It is your turn! What are your amazing revelations in the past 46 days? I haven't caught up on commenting on all your blogs, but I'm working on it, slowly but surely. I. WILL. NOT. FAIL. YOU. 

 How have you been? Please catch me up on your life, I want to know! I hope the summer is treating you well and that you had a safe Fourth of July!

  3. Working 40 hour weeks IS hard! I can't believe real adults do it every day of their lives...(except weekends)

    I don't want to grow uppppp.

    I like #6 and #7

    Do NOT get an HP. They suck.

    My main revelations:
    We are never alone in our situation. There are always others who are in (or have been) in the exact same place we are.
    God is faithful. God is good. Always. Even if it doesn't feel like it at the moment.

  4. I honestly think that after you spend so long doing something, it then becomes second nature, but good for you for spending so much time outside!
    and that's funny that you ask if we've had any revelations over the past 46 days...lol I don't even remember what happend to me a week ago!
    I always love your posts.
