Hey guys! Happy late Christmas,Boxing Day, and New Year! I hope you had a great Christmas, I know I did, even if it was a little stressful. In the end, the birth of Jesus and the incredible story that never gets old is what makes Christmas happy, not my new yoga pants or finally being back home on Christmas Day.
Finals week was not as stressful as I thought, but I'm afraid to see what my grades are, mainly in College Algebra.It has hit me that I have one semester of high school left. That is ridiculous, just yesterday I was an insecure, goofy freshman. I'm still goofy and insecure sometimes, but I have grown more into the person God wants me to be, and I am so much more comfortable with how my life is. Granted, there is still a lot I have to work on and a lot I don't know, and that is what excites me about college.:)
I had a sleepover with Katie, Erin, and Bethany Friday which was wonderful. We watched the 2nd Doctor Who episode, went on a Sonic run, and played way too much Apples To Apples.:) I then came home and purged my room of lots of trash, it's looking good. Like seriously, it is
almost immaculate.:) I shall take pictures of it in the future to show you (because I'm sure it's
super interesting) ;)
School starts back up again tomorrow. :( But that means only a 3 day week, and new classes! Hope you are all well!:)
Your brother's snowman is awesome. :)

DeletePeppermint and cookie dough ice cream? Yes please.
ReplyDeleteI agree.:D
DeleteLove Apples to Apples! =D
ReplyDeleteYesss, so much fun!=D
DeleteYour Christmas looks like it was a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteAnd you know, you don't have to worry too much about college, even though everyone does. Most people tend to have a good time!
It sure was!I hope yours was too! Yeah, I am trying not to worry about it, but that just makes me think about college more, ha ha! Thanks, I hope it will be.:)
DeleteI have been catching up on your blog and gotta say I missed reading it! As always, I enjoy looking at all of your pictures!
ReplyDeleteI know what it's like not to know what you're gonna do or where you wanna go (regarding your post at the beginning of December), one thing I learned a LONG time ago is this: you cant please everyone. No matter what, there will always be somebody who has a problem with what decision you make and that's okay, you make the decision for YOU. not for THEM. go with what your heart is telling you girl. God GIVES you those desires in your heart and if he's big enough to give you a dream, he's most certainly big enough to give you plans, ideas, money, etc to accomplish that dream.
It looks like you has a lot of fun out of town! Sometimes it's so nice to just get away!
You have a wonderful day miss Rebecca!
Aww, thank you Morgan!That means so much to me!:)Thank you for the encouragement, I am excited and ready to follow God, wherever I go while following Him.:) It was nice to get out of town.
DeleteYou have a great day too Morgan!:)
