| Well it has been a very long time since I have written in here, and a lot has happened so lets see if I can remember it to be able to write it all down. First things first, the trip to Australia was amazing, five and a half weeks with an amazing group of friends. The plane flight there was hard it just felt like we would never get there, plus I tried something that they suggested about how you don't drink anything with caffeine for three days before you leave and then have caffeine 6 a.m. the time of the place you are going. It sucked so bad watching everyone with their starbucks coffee in the airport and all I wanted to do was drink them! But it was amazing when I finally got the chance to get some caffeine...I am pretty sure I was wired for the rest of the trip there at least a little bit:) We had a great time during the whole trip and maybe at some point I can put down some of my stories from the trip but for now I will just move on.
That was this summer, after that trip was over, not only did I have jet leg but I also had to figure out if I was going to be going back to Cedarville or not, at that point I was and I was even going to be a RA(Resident Assistant) which I was super excited for. But about two weeks before classes started I just felt like I needed to stay home and work, not only because of the nice loan / debt I was getting but also because my father had a big job coming up and would of had to hire another guy anyway and since I knew what to do I really felt like I needed to step up and do it. So I had to drop out of Cedarville and started working for my father. The big job went really well and we got a chance to bid on their next big job, this one is even bigger then the first one so we are hoping we get it. But yeah so now I am just working for my father and hopefully some day will get a chance to go back to Cedarville if God allows it.
There has been so many things in between those to stories that I could share but as for right now I need to get some sleep! | | |
| Well I am on my way to Australia tomorrow and we are going to be there for 6 weeks. I am excited, but I am also wishing that I could stay home and make some money but I know God will do something to me this summer. I get back July 23rd and do not have much time after that before I have to come back to school. Pray for me as I am gone that God will help us be a witness to those that we work for, oh, sorry I forgot to tell you what we are doing. We are a part of a music/drama team, I am the soundtech for the team and there are 13 of us. We will be visiting over 13 churches and a camp. Hope everyone has a great summer! | | |
| It has been a while since I have written on here, just wanted to put down a quick note telling everyone HI and I hopd you are all having a great finish to your semesters! They are coming to a close for a lot of people and you are either trying to figure something out to do for the summer or already have plans and you are trying to figure out how you aren't going to work to insanity! I am probably going to be taking some summer classes right after the semester is over and that goes for three weeks then I get to go home for two weeks then I have to come back here to leave for my trip to Australia where I will be for at least five weeks. When we finally get home I will be home for about three weeks then have to come back to school for RA training, so I am not looking at much of a summer to myself, but God has given me such big opportunities to serve Him! Finish strong friends!
Much Love,

| Ever feel like you are a breath of fresh air to someone? Like when they see you their face just lights up and then after your conversation with them no matter how deep and what about it might be you walk away from the conversation just knowing that you lifted whatever kind of weight off their shoulders and let them feel like they could almost fly. I love that feeling, it's a mix between feeling wanted by that person and knowing that you are helping( both are amazing things). Usually seeing that I have made a difference in their day or atleast for a couple minutes helps me enjoy my day just that much more even if for me it is only a couple minutes as well.
I am trying to get over this fear of talking to people I don't know, some people have the gift and some don't but I do feel you can learn it. Which is why I brought up the last point, I need to look at it more like that if I talk to this person they could be the cup of cold water I need that day, that breath of fresh air. However, if I never get the courage to talk to them I am not getting that thing that I need; I mean sure I will survive and make it through another day and most likely God will call someone else to come along and do something for me to help me. But what if that other person was just PERFECT for the need I had? I don't really know where I was fully going to go with this, just some thoughts running through this weird head of mine. I just think that we all, myself included, stereotype someone into something they are not because of usually the way they dress, or maybe how they responded to one situation. I don't think that we should count them out on the first meeting, sure there are going to be some people that totally fit what you thought they were, but then there are going to be some people that just totally surprise you. Don't assume, stereotype or judge to quickly cause there is always that chance that they were sick, had a headache, just got a bad grade on a paper, or didn't have enough sleep, etc. I try to give everyone more then just one chance at judging them, sure I am guilty of judging to quickly and have been put in my place too many times, but I feel that there are people out there that just judge, assume and stereotype and are totally fine with not changing that.
I challenge all of you to go out and see if there is someone that you could change your stereotype on, cause chances are, they will throw you for a loop and be someone totally different then you think. | | |
