Sophomore year done.
Yes!
This year was absolutely crazy, I learned a lot. Although I don't feel as though I know nearly enough for getting ready to start my junior year. Shouldn't I know stuff now? Like, how to be grown up?
God provided in amazing ways this year, I'll go into detail about how amazing that was to watch in a little while. For instance though, I still owe no money to my school at all, and I got a job over the phone, with no interview--so I didn't have to stay at school this summer to work.
I had great roommates, great classes, great teachers, and great friends (well, I still have great friends, I guess you could say I made some great friends) Two of whom are actually on their way to Ghana right now. They're going to be working with a missionary family and some local pastors. Their trips are always insanely busy, please keep the whole team in your prayers as they serve God in Ghana, West Africa.
God is always good.

1 Year Down
Well, here I am! Back from PCC, and my word a lot has happened. There's too much for me to say, and I know I could never remember it all.
School
roomates
It was GREAT. I absolutely loved it. eh, most of the time anyway :) My classes were awesome (I didn't have to take a science class and I didn't fail PE or Speech so it's all good).
My roommates both semesters were great. My first semester one of my roomates was a graduating senior. She was a great testimony to me and a great help. She made my first semester absolutely WONDERFUL.
I switched rooms during the second semester to be with one of my friends-DANA!!! :) Who was also a great roomie!-- And her roomate Sharon. It was a lot of fun :) We had pineapple with sunglasses, discovered we liked Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches and just had a great time overall.
What is great is that it moved me to Griffith Tower which has rooms about 1/3 the size of Bradley tower (where I was originally). I wasn't sure I'd like it but I like it better than Bradley :) I like having only around...70ish girls on a floor compared to 100...ish.
Academics
Classes were AMAZING
Mr. Zila and Mr. Sleeth and MIss Allnutt are the BEST!
History of Civ with Mr. Zila was fantastic. He was great at making his point :) Very good at explaining the differences between Communism and Socialism. LOVED it!
New Testament Survey with Mr. Sleeth was also fantastic, a great teacher who let me ask him about a dozen questions :)
Miss Allnutt!!! English class was fun. nuff said.
Overall I did pretty well, first quarter of the 2nd semester was rough but pulled it back up for the second half. Made Dean's List 3 times :)
But, I loved my classes, and I get to take my first Missions class next semester!!
And it is true: The more you feel like an idiot while performing your speech, the better a grade you get :)
Oh, and I changed my broad field (similar to a minor) to Elementary Education!
Friends
I made quite a few friends :) Dana of course (met on Facebook and then shared a room), Julie and Mike (Work will not be nearly as much fun w/out you Julie!) Amanda and Candace (Yay Printshop!?) To name a very few :) It's way fun!
I also met this guy who sat in front of me at the workers meeting...and then sat in front of me for 1st hour History...then I went downstairs to 2nd hour Math and there he was again! Sat right in front of me! We've been dating 7 months now. Ross Slane, my best friend ever! He's pretty cool, a missions/pastoral major from Ohio. He's off to Ghana for the next two weeks so please pray for him and his team. http://ghana.gfbminfo.com/field-updates/ you can find updates on the trip here if you're interested.

My history final though was AMAZING. It was my last final and so I studied more
for the stuff before it. (Still hadn't gotten the hang of studying before finals week) Anyway, I knew that I was
not ready when I went in to take the test. Went through the first page and
guessed most of it, most weren't even educated guesses because I had no idea. Pretty much all I knew was stuff that
had to do with WWII. I prayed "Lord just help me pass" and kept going. I knew a
little bit more as I went but still wasn't comfortable. Got to the end of the
test and answered two questions wrong, those I was sure of. :) That evening I
checked my grade online. 99% I seriously thought that he had posted someone
else's grade in my account. I checked off and on for the next 2 or 3 days
expecting it to change. The only thing I can figure is that the last two
questions were only worth 1/2 a point since it was a 100 question test. That
means I answered the other 98 questions over content (starting from the Russian
Czars to Modern Day) correct. I know I did not know that material :) God let me
pass it and pass it well :)
But, I loved my classes, and I get to take my first Missions class next semester!!

busy busy busy
What's new everybody?
Not much has happened since my last post...
I had my last day at work which was pretty good, it was really long though...
I overflowed the coffee machine which I though was somewhat appropriate because that was how I started working at QT. :)
Sunday was the start of the missions conference, Monday we took some pictures, Tuesday my sisters had to do school (mwa ha ha ha) Tomorrow I'm going to go see "Shorts" with Grandma and then we're going to hang out 'till church that night. Then I get to hang out with Melissa!
Thursday going out to Who Knows Where.
Friday Missions Conference,
Saturday hanging out around Main Street with some friends.
Sunday Last day of the missions conference.
Then On Friday I LEAVE FOR COLLEGE! HOW SCARY IS THAT!
It still hasn't really sunk in for me that I'm actually going to college, kinda the same un-realness that I had when I was going to Peru.
Well, I think that's all for tonight.
night!

Last Day!
Okay, haven't updated in a loooong time...
How are you guys?
....
Good!
Well, lets see Fireworks stand went very very well, I still hate it, but this was probably the best year I've had of it.
Camp was Fantastic! Attitudes were awesome, and there were some kids who came with our church who accepted Christ as their Savior-ALWAYS Fantastic when that happens!
I got to know some friends better, which I am very happy about. :)
Camp started out kinda rough, everyone had their best friend, group, or boyfriend/girlfriend, so I was kinda left standing alone, or feeling in the way. But it got better.
Our speaker did a wonderful Job, I'll have to put up some notes.
Well, after I got home from camp on Friday, my Dad and I drove up to Wisconsin for our family reunion. That was a good time, got to see everybody! :D
Oh, and we made sparkler bombs-AWESOME!
Then me and Dad went and saw "UP"-very cute.
We [He] then drove home, and the next morning I got my wisdom teeth pulled.
A very good experience overall, nothing horrible happened, and the doctor and nurses were marvelous.
My face kinda hurt afterwords but that was to be expected....
I watched a LOT of TV and movies that week....
Well, I graduated to the college class and I love it! I'm really sad that I'm only going to be in there for a couple more weeks.
PCC is only about Two weeks away....
Today is my Last Day of work at QT until I come home from college! SO EXCITED!
I absolute love my job, but I'm ready to be done for a while :)
I'll have to tell you guys about Ronald on my next post...heeeheeeheeeheee....
Okay, I'm outta here for know, workin' 9 to 5 today.
See ya later!

Home!
Hey guys :)
Okay, time for me to update again. So first, I'll cover my flights home.
The flight from Lima to Miami was fine, kinda long. There was a lot of security, they checked your carry-on as you were boarding the flight.
We landed at Miami around 2 I think. We got off the flight and there were some police officers who looked like they were just hanging out in the hall.
Everyone just kinda picked a cop and got in line, they looked at your passport for a second, then looked at you-then gave you your passport and waved you through. :) Very casual.
So we all followed the signs that said "passport check" and we walked.
And walked.
And walked.
And walked.
And walked.
You're probably thinking that you have the idea by now but you don't.
We walked.
And walked.
And walked.
I was walking next to a girl-it's funny how you kinda group together with people when you're traveling--or maybe only I do that :)
But we kept walking then the hallway we were following led us to some bathrooms...she finally said "where are we even going?!" and the construction worker in the hall said "to the left of the bathroom"
So we walked to the left and through some glass doors.
Finally!
We were there!...so i thought.
but no.
We kept walking-walked right out through the other end of the glass doors.
We finally reached customs and there was almost no-one there. I walked up to on man who said I needed a blue and white card and that I needed to go to the back of the room to fill one out, and if there was a line when I got back I could cut to the front.
I filled out my card, and went to a different line because there were like 4 people without any lines at all.
So I got through that and went through a door and down an escalator to a baggage claim area---I didn't realize beforehand that I would have to re-check my baggage-I hadn't had to on the way to Lima.
So I waited for my bag, and waited, and waited--I looked at the clock 2:20
My flight boarded at 3:05.
My bag FINALLY comes through and I follow the crowd out the door.
I walk past some people and hear them talking-all of the sudden I hear "Ma'am!" so I turn and she checked my bag-I think they spoke to me in Spanish first, which is why I didn't turn around.
She told me to "follow the yellow dots" so I did, and walked and walked and walked-although that walk was not nearly as far as the walk to customs :)
So the yellow dots came to an end, and they took my bag from me and told me to follow the blue dots, which I did. I then ended up going up some stairs and in a large room--It looked like you could check bags and buy tickets in the area.
I have no idea how to get to my gate.
I don't even know what gate I'm supposed to get to-it wasn't on my boarding pass.
I stood there staring at my boarding pass when a man with an American Airlines ID badge walked up to me and said something in Spanish. I smiled and looked at him blankly.
He then said
"You lost already?"
"Yeah."
I don't remember the details of the conversation, but he pointed me to a lady in a red jacket to get my gate number.
He asked me when my flight was.
"3:05."
"You've gotta get a move-on girl!"
I got my gate number and then he instantly took off.
"Follow me."
We walked quickly around, he had just gotten back from Ecuador, and liked to casually swear in the middle of his sentances. He had an accent of some kind but I have no idea as to what kind it was.
At some point I clarified that I was not a Peruvian :)
We walked through some glass doors very similar to ones that I had walked through before, if they were not the same ones-But the interesting part was that the mat on the floor said "Do Not Enter"
He told me to have my passport out.
He showed his ID badge to a lady, and she glanced at my passport, didn't take it from me or open it, and waved us through.
"Short-cut" was all he said.
He led me to security and told the lady at the beginning of the line that I needed to get to my flight and asked if I could go to the front of the line or something.
She sent me through Priority Access.
I got through security okay and didn't pause to put my belt or coat back on. I finally got into the terminal area with signs to the gates.
THIS I knew how to navigate through!
I stopped to quickly tie my shoes and then started for my gate.
Of course it was at the opposite end of where I was. :)
I didn't run, but I came close to it.
I finally got to my gate and asked a guy what time it was.
"10 'till 3"
YAY! I MADE IT!
The plane didn't end up boarding until 3:15, so I had had plenty of time anyway.
Then I flew to St. Louis. and I knew that part of the airport.
I flew over church and that was cool, and from seeing church and then seeing where I worked, I could sort of figure out where my house was. :)
I had a great time in Peru :)
So, I work tomorrow at the Fireworks Stand and at QT, then I head over the G-ma's house, gonna spend the night and then hang out Friday.
Saturday I work Fireworks stand and QT,
Tuesday QT,
Wed, Fireworks,
Fri and Sat- Fireworks and QT.
Then Sunday is camp already.
Then Tuesday I get my wisdom teeth pulled. BUSY!
But it should settle down some after that...I hope it does anyway, that is a LOT.
Then I have to be in Pensacola Sept 5!
Alrighty, I think I have updated enough for tonight.
I need to go clean my room.
Night all!
Oh yeah,
I GOT MY DIPLOMA TODAY! :D :D

Don't know what's happened.
Hey Guys!
Don't really know what's happened that's too exciting lately...
(And on a side note-all of you Facebookers who can see this, it's from my blog, my dad somehow put it to where it automatically posts a note to facebook whenever I update)
Got my ACT results, I got a 26 and am eligible for the scholarship at PCC :)
Umm...Going to Camp.
Umm..... Work's going good, starting to get the hang of things. someone stole $200 worth of Lottery tickets last night (I wasn't working).
Enjoying work.
School is almost over! I am SO ready. I will be completly done with everything by May 26th at the latest. It's kinda funny, I'm ready to be done with school, because I want to go do more school :]
In case I haven't said anything about it-Scheduled to go to PCC this fall, with a major in missions and a minor in Graphic Design. Totally excited.
Got to work an extra hour today, that was nice.
Stayed up 'till midnight last night with my sisters watching Robin Hood, I finally found it online. *happy* Had a good time hanging out with them and watching the show. Many funny things were said... for example:
Me: This is SOOOO corny...I LOVE IT!
Esther: Oh, we're all about the corn.
ahhaaahaaahaa!
...
okay, so maybe you had to be there...but I promise it was hilarious.
Okay, I'm outta here.
Maybe I'll make more sense in the morning.
Night all!

54 Days 'Till Peru...1/2 a Night 'Till WI
In answer to Emma's question on the last post...No, they were not being mean when they "yelled" at me. :] thank you for asking.
Okay, so what's new....
Leaving for WI tomorrow morning bright and early...without the bright part. I like the car trip...don't think I would if I had to drive it, but just hanging out in the car; reading, writing, watching a movie, I like it. :D (Plus I get shotgun!)
Ready for school to be over...I was fine until the beginning of the fourth quarter, then I sent in my college application and now I'm very ready to be done!
Funny, I want to finish school...so that I can go do more school...hmmm...:]
Sent in all of my paperwork to Pensacola Christian College, and got a letter twoish days ago (i'll be made fun of for that one) anyway got a letter telling me I was accepted! Totally, excited! (Like, I know right? Whatever!-- Sorry, inside joke...okay, not sorry or I wouldn't have posted it :P)
I think I'm writing kinda haphazardly here... just ready to GO!
hmm....
College.
Planning on majoring in Missions with a broad field in Graphic Design. Fall semester 2009!
I believe that God works in every area in our lives, that everything that happens happens for a reason. God is soverign.
So noticing some things that are happening in mine, I think He's trying to get me to grow towards Him, a better relationship.
I don't know if that's why or not, but, I figure It would be very difficult for me to go wrong if I'm trying to grow in my relationship with Him. :]
Gonna miss my church...
AWANA's is almost over for the year and I am ready.
I love the kids but I miss going to service on Sunday nights.
Some random stuff since my last post:
Go ye therefore and teach all nations... Matthew 28:19
Okay, so what's new....
Leaving for WI tomorrow morning bright and early...without the bright part. I like the car trip...don't think I would if I had to drive it, but just hanging out in the car; reading, writing, watching a movie, I like it. :D (Plus I get shotgun!)
Ready for school to be over...I was fine until the beginning of the fourth quarter, then I sent in my college application and now I'm very ready to be done!
Funny, I want to finish school...so that I can go do more school...hmmm...:]
Sent in all of my paperwork to Pensacola Christian College, and got a letter twoish days ago (i'll be made fun of for that one) anyway got a letter telling me I was accepted! Totally, excited! (Like, I know right? Whatever!-- Sorry, inside joke...okay, not sorry or I wouldn't have posted it :P)
I think I'm writing kinda haphazardly here... just ready to GO!

Some random stuff since my last post:
- If evolution is partly survival of the fittest, why are humans (the fittest) trying to save the rainforest and endangered species??? Isn't that a bit contradictory?
- Nothing nearly as serious...since I've started watching this TV show "Lie to Me" I find myself watching face expressions in movies, trying to find tells and manipulators and the such like. :]
- I'm stealing Chelsy's awesome emoticon thingy. :]
- In my next post, I will post my short story about my first bus ride home from sagmount.
- MY SHEET MUSIC IS FINALLY IN!....ooohh...I should probably cancel my order at A&M music now...
- I'm much more comfortable at QT now, getting into the swing of things.
- I managed to fool at least 6 people into thinking I got fired on April Fools day. AGAIN I DID NOT GET FIRED, I AM HAPPILY EMPLOYED AT QT!...lets you see the effects and confusion of lying...
- April fools day was way fun :D May I quote S. --" IT'S A JOKE! APRIL FOOLS! APRIL FOOLS! DON'T HURT HIM!" ahhh.... that will make me laugh for a long time. :] (not my joke by the way, I got to observe someone else's.
Alrighty, I think I am done for tonight.
Have a great week guys!
Night All!
