Happy February!

Well it is February 5th already! Wow! Time is already flying! Starting my 5th week of the semester and things are starting to pick up I guess you could say.

Yesterday and Today I had my interviews for the Resident Assistant position. I am nervous now that it is over I just have to wait a week or two before I find out if I got the job or not.  This will be the worst part but i guess I can mentally prepare myself for the result of whether I will get it or not.  I really hate waiting for the answer but I have to have patiences.  I tired my best in the interviews and that is what counts.

I am looking forward to the premier of Glee tomorrow after the Super Bowl.  (I think I watch too much tv...)

My life has been busy but then it has also not been that busy either... I should do more reading than I actually do, but I do the ones that are most important.  

Reading break is in 2 weeks and so I must start cracking down on the papers that are due before and after it... Also on the midterms that are around it too... I only have 3 midterms this semester at least! That is wonderful news!

Time is flying by as fast as a hummingbirds wings.  One day I may be blinking my eyes and then POOOF It will be 2013 and I will be getting ready to graduate from University! Such a scary thought especially since I have no idea what I'm going to do with the rest of my life.  God will lead me down the right path though and I just have to put my trust in him to do so.

Well I should really start getting some work done now. Ta Ta For Now!

Oh how Glorious!

WOW! It has been a while since I last blogged... Life has just gotten so busy that I just haven't made the time to do so I suppose.  

I just wanted to share what I learned today with the world because it was amazing and so hard to comprehend and I still don't understand it all the way except that I do.  

In D-Group tonight Chels read from her devotional book and the first verse that popped up was Philippians 1:20 & 21 which say : 

I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.  For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

The part that took a while for all of us to comprehend was verse 21: For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.  It was very confusing at first but after reading what my foot notes said in my bible we all understood it better.  What we have to do as Christians is to become like Christ.  We must give what we have up and look toward Heaven as our one goal.  When we die we will gain Heaven and for most of us it is hard to think about dieing because we don't want to leave our loved ones behind.  But we must learn to do so and we will become like Christ and have eternal life from the Grace that he has provided us.  

That is what is on my heart tonight after learning this and I now believe that I understand it better than I previously did.

Here is a picture of some moss growing on the side of a wall that had snow stuck to it! God is amazing and His creation shows that he is amazing since he created it!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

It is already 2011! Wow! So much as happened this past year and so much is bound to happen in this coming year! I can't wait to see what God has planned for my life this year.

Hope Everyone has a wonderful new year's day and a wonderful year to come!

AHH... 13 Days can seem so short but so LONG!

13 Days until I am on a plane back up the Canada.  It is always a bitter sweet kind of feeling that I have when it comes time to go back to school.  On one hand I love seeing everyone at school and in the dorm and going back to the family I have up there, But on the other hand I hate saying goodbye especially to my Mum.  

I suppose I just must make the best out of the time that I have here still.  

So far my plans for the rest of the break include going to Megan's house tomorrow, Tuesday: getting my hair done, seeing Tangled, and maybe shopping, Friday: our traditional New Year's Eve party and the Tuesday after that: Shopping with Cecilia.  I have plenty of time to fill in the blanks of course.  I do look forward to relaxing more too.  

I know I know... I still need to put more pictures... I need to get them all off of George (my camera) still... I just keep forgetting and I'm too lazy to do it too...

Well Until then, This post with NO pictures will have to do!

More to come on my Winter Break on another day!

Merry Christmas!

Well, I have been on my Christmas break for a week now and have just gotten around to blogging.  I have been pretty busy baking and knitting and spending time with my family.  I have not had a chance to put the pictures on my computer yet so I'm not going to put any pictures on this post.  After Christmas, however, I will!

Well I must go make Parsnips Dressing for Dinner tomorrow. 

Just wanted to stop by and say:

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

FINALS

As I sit here trying to study (which is difficult), I think of how fast this semester has flown by.  Its already the middle of finals and that means the first semester of my second year is already at an end.  3 days from now I'll be on my flight home back to California for the Christmas Break.  But before then there is so much to do still.

Tonight I must learn all the information I need to know for my History final which is at 9 am tomorrow morning.  After my exam is over, I can only relax for a short time and then I must begin writing my take home final for Anthropology.  Once that is finished, I can relax for a short time unless it has not been finished until Tuesday.  Tuesday, I must study all day long for New Testament which the final is on Wednesday morning at 9.  But before Wednesday comes, I still need to be packed and ready to go so I won't be rushing to catch my flight after my exam on Wednesday.  There seems to just not be enough time in the world right now.  If I had an extra day to just pack and relax I would be much happier, however I don't but I do get to be home an extra day early.  I can't wait for Wednesday to just be here already!

2/5 Exams written, 3 more to go all within 3 days!

I best be studying now!

Last Day of Class!

Well, Today I finished my last day of classes for my 3rd semester at University!

It was torturous sitting through history one last especially since the only thing we had done was watch a movie.

The rest of my week is going to consist of studying for every single one of my classes and also doing my Anthropology final.

Tonight for dorm meeting we gave our secret sisters their Christmas presents. For Whitney, I got her an awesome mug/bowl and candy. She loved it! So glad! Got it at Value for pretty cheap too!

My secret sister was Christine. I knew it was her but she played it off like it wasn't! 

Well anyways. She got me a hamster that I named Henry.

Here is Henry sitting on my shoulder

So great!

After dorm meeting we went and got free pancakes!

Then Casie, Jill, Deanna, Emily, Carly and I went and climbed onto the roof of Northwest and then from there we climbed on to this balcony and saw a couple making out on the couch and interrupted them as we climbed on and walked through.  We took a few pictures sitting on the stairs after our adventure.

It was a fun night!

Now I am up way to late and need to go to bed! Yikes! Good thing I get to sleep in tomorrow! No more 9am classes!!... until next semester that is!
