Last Spring Break Ever

Music: Like We Never Loved At All by Faith Hill
Well this is it folks, Spring Break 2006 is coming to a close, as is my college career. So strange. It’s been a good break, if not long enough. Today, we lazed around quite a bit, catching some sun. A bit too much for me! I worked on some homework. Katie had her audition at UGA, and that’s her last one. She probably won’t know about acceptance to all the schools she applied to till April, and then she has to decide which school to go to. I would really really love to have her come to Evanston, but I want what’s best for her, and I think she’ll make a good choice where ever she decides to go. I’m not selfish enough to want her to come to Illinois if it’s not best for her. Really it’s just been a relaxing day. I’ve been copying down my early blog entries because soon they’ll start being deleted. I’m not exactly sure when, but I don’t want to lose them. It was really interesting to read back. I’m such an open person 🙂 I really do like that, although it has it’s problems. I’ve noticed that I’m not as open recently as I used to be.
It was really a good experience to read my first month (and a half) of blogging. I was a bit apprehensive because I knew that I’d read about being happy with Jesse and all that, and that was a bit difficult, but there was so much else that was joyful in my life, and I actually talk alot more about friends and family than I do Jesse. And the joy that I see in my writing despite being busy and lots of other things. And I’ve grown so much too, maybe not as much as I want to, but it’s still good to see.

Things that make me happy right now…
that Lenora’s going to have a baby
that I have such wonderful wonderful friends
that Karis, Matt and the kids live so close
that I’m young
that I’m me

Things that make me sad right now….
that I’ve lost contact with Sara from Western
that Jesse’s still such an issue for me
that I’m doing so poorly in Reading the Bible
that I haven’t talk to Jenn for so long
that I’m not always the me the I want to be

Something interesting from an earlier blog that I read today, I’m sure I read this with very different things in mind than I do now, and that different things stood out to me.

When Love speaks to you, believe in him,
though his voice may shatter your dreams,
as the north wind lays waste the garden.
For even as love crowns you, so shall he crucify you.
Even as he is for your growth, so is he for your pruning.
Even as he ascends to your height and
caresses the tender branches that quiver in the sun,
so shall he descend to your roots
and shake them in their clinging to the earth.
~Kahlil Gibran

Good night to you all. May God bless you with peaceful hearts.
