| sufficient grounds has officially sunk to the bottom of my coffee house list. it is the worst coffee house i have ever been to. at first it was just crowded, then noisy, then all of the drinks lost their flavor, and then the place became even more expensive and just plain messy. then before spring break they ran out of whipped cream!! but all that i can forgive... until today. i went in and ordered my favorite sufficient drink... a lyndzo... basically a chocolate espresso milk shake... and they didnt put any chocolate in it! i even talked to them and asked them to make another and again... no chocolate!!! i finally got frustrated and left with my non-chocolate espresso milk shake. what is this world coming to????? | | |
| finally a valentines day to celebrate! i'd be lying if i said last years valentines day wasnt great too... yes, i was single, but i was honestly content. i had my friends and i wore pink and i ate way too much cholcolate... but i have to admit, there is something about having a special someone on valentines day that makes it that much better. i got a letter in the mail last weekend with my first "clue" to my valentines present. it was a bible verse on a little kids beauty and the beast card. then when i looked up the verse, it said something about food and drink, so i guess when i get to jasons house on friday, i have to go look for my second clue. anyway... im excited... it will be a lot of fun. the clues are just supposed to tell me what we'll be doing on saturday... when we're actually going out to dinner and doing some other "surprise" things... i cant wait. yeah, i wish i could spend time with him today.... but even though jason and i are an hour apart, i know he loves me and i know i love him with all of my heart. we've been together for 8 months, and maybe its too soon and maybe i'm too young, and you can roll your eyes and shake your head, but this is what i know: i love him, and i want to spend the rest of my life loving him, and i dont care who knows anymore. he is an incredible man if you take the time to get to know him. dig a little deeper and you'll see.... he's all ive ever wanted. i love you jason.... happy valentines day! | | |
| here we go!
i went tanning yesterday... its been a long time. i forgot how much good it can do when you're stressed and upset and walking everywhere in several inches of snow. it felt good, but made me miss florida. i'm really gunna miss going this year. then last night karma came over and randomly decided to cut my hair. so i got a free haircut, just a simple clean cut with some long bangs... nothin special, but my hair needed it. she'll probably come again sunday night to do lisa's and dye the tips of her hair blue. yep... blue.
in other news, i've been feeling rather sick lately. i've just been sick to my stomach and extra tired and drowsy. i dont feel like doing much of anything. lisa's got it even worse than i do though. she's had pretty serious stomach pains for the past few days and some other minor problems with her asthma. she cant really stand up for more than 15 minutes. the nurse said it was most likely stress induced and i'm thinking it's probably the same for me. both of us have had so many things going on lately... we're petitioning for another christmas break... now that we actually have snow!!
i've been thinking a lot about the past today. i miss my youth group, a lot. i miss my girls, my best friends, my youth pastor. i miss being a leader, having responsibility, praying and just talking with people i love and people who love me. i wish i could go back and hang out at 3DYC or prairie camp or florida. i miss being challenged and having the opportunity to talk about real things. i'd give anything to have that back for a day. but i know i cant dwell on it. God's given me today to live. so i'll only miss it for a while...
alrighty, well... back to homework.

| i've been meaning to update for quite some time, but every time i start i dont have the time to finish. now that i do, i dont feel much like writing. but i will try... last tuesday i went on a field trip to chicago with my art class. jason came with me too, so it was a lot of fun. we went to the art museum first and looked around. it was nice, but we had an assignment to do as well, and i felt like i was rushing from room to room trying to find the right paintings and never really got the time to sit and enjoy the work itself. i wish we would have had more time to take it all in. then we left the museum and had about 5 hours to do as we pleased in downtown chicago. had it been warmer and had i not been wearing high-heels, im sure it wouldve been a lot of fun. jason and i ended up only going to watertower place and the 3 story borders. however, we were able to go to the rainforest cafe for dinner and it was amazing!! i had never been there before and i absolutely loved it! we sat down and after about 2 minutes i looked at jason and just said "i wish elizabeth were here." i ended up calling her a few minutes later just to tell her about it. she wouldve been fascinated. after dinner we met back up with the class and went to a german opera called "Die Fledermaus". it was supposed to be the funniest opera ever written. the problem was, first, we were on the 6th floor of the opera house and the stage looked like a tiny doll house, second, it was all in german with english subtitles, third, it didnt start til late at night, and lastly, they played soothing music! so you either had to try and squint to see the stage, while reading the subtitles and listening to the music, or let yourself drift off into dreamland. needless to say, i fell asleep for most of act 2. i told jason he never had to take me to another opera again. but over all it was a great day. since then, things have been pretty crazy at bethel. see i was under the impression that i was in college and the "he-said-she-said", "my best friend stole my man", "nobody likes me so im going lesbian/gay/whatever" drama was over... along with the lying, cheating, backstabbing, and rumor spreading. well i was wrong. i am so tired of drama... stupid boys and stupid girls that cant seem to grow up or be honest about anything. all i can do is trust that God will use this for something. i am learning that we cant always protect our friends. sometimes all we can do is pray for them and be there when things fall through. its a hard thing to watch. thats all i have time for, for now. i'll try and update again later this week. | | |
| well, the new semester has started and im realy pretty excited. classes seem fairly interesting so far... managable at least. my profs are pleasant enough. i start bowling on thursday!!! im trying to get myself on some sort of regular schedule... waking up at 8 am regardless of when my classes start, eating lunch around the same time... and even working out at 9 every night. yep... i'm working out. i figure as long as i have a fitness center to use for free, i'd be an idiot not to take advantage of it. so college is going well... jon couldnt come back this semester because of grades and stuff so that really sucked. he was one of my good friends. but with any luck he'll be back next semester and come for visits whenever he can. thats my life as of now... i'll try to update more often this semester... | | |
