Rain

First off, thank you so much for the prayers. My Mamaw is in no more pain, and with Lord. I miss her an unbelievable amount, but I am so glad that she is no longer suffering.

Now, I would just like to update you on goings on....because my life is super important...and you should know all about it..........my conceit and pride are pets I have been training lately...ok...bad joke...moving on...

I have had the honour and pleasure of continuing to be able to help out at the Newcastle Christian school twice a week. I have been helping with questions and any sort of excess "paper work" that the teachers have not been able to get to. I have also been giving pointers to the upper class on there dramatic endeavours. It has all been very fun.

Along with doing artsy things with the girls at the Young People's meetings, which meets twice a month, I am trying to get a small Bible study started....maybe...let's pray that works out.

Also, I am helping organize this end of the Holiday Bible Club which will be held August 1st through the 5th (a week after I leave). First Pres in Jackson, MS will be sending a small team to run it, so I will be publicizing for it. Please keep this in your prayers, as it will be an amazing opportunity to reach out to the community.

Well, I suppose that's all for now....

Obnoxious, Really.

I've skipped April entirely. It does need to be recognized. April 2011, you were the most stressful, tearful, irritating, horrible month I have yet to experience. Some good things happened. None of which I can remember. Do I sound bitter? Slightly annoyed? Good. Those were the tones I was meaning to give off. I have never had a month be so absolutely spiteful towards me. You'd have thought that I spit on it's mother. Well April, I did no such thing. You needn't act so offended, it's all your fault, and I would never spit on anyone's mother. Not even yours'. I do wish you had been a little kinder, it wasn't just me you were wrong to, it was plenty of my friends, and near the end there, it really got serious, and very personal. It was hurtful, and I know that I won't be getting an apology, but I really would like you to know that next year when we meet I expect you to be civil. I send no love your way, you are simply a month after all.

Spinning in Circles - Headaches in Large Scoops

It's funny, you know? That song by Jason Mraz, the one about coyotes or something like that.

I feel sweet solitude on the 4th floors of libraries, and I have a deep love for corners and hazelnut coffee.

I have a book to read, one that I will actually enjoy.

I have two group projects, 3 major papers, and two minor ones. All due this week.

I will sacrifice my social life for a week, it will hurt, but I can tell that summer is coming. I take comfort in having this knowledge in my arsenal of happy things.

I have decided that loving people you don't know is an easy thing to do, so I should probably do that, and just decide to never meet them.

I have a summer job.

I need to apply for a fall one.

I have an apartment.

I need to get tanned.

I need to sweet talk a few more people.

I need to convince someone of the male gender that I am not as scary or weird as they would have first assumed.

I need to let that male know that I bake. I've heard that works.
