first time to update in forever.

I'm lucky I remembered my password!
But Junior year has started. Almost all straight A's. It will happen this semester!
I love being back. It has it's challenges but overall a blessing.
Trying to decide the right path for me in the future, but we'll see.
I have the best roommates that keep me going.
BUT most of all, my priorities are getting in line. I'm remembering WHO is first and striving to be more Christ-like.
Seize the day.

    Hey! It's great to hear from you. I still come over to Pleo because I like the more private and deeper posts.
    I am so glad to hear the year is going great. I know it didn't seem like it this time last year, but it will be over before you know it. Have a great one!

2 days left and 8.5 hours till I leave...

I guess I should actually pack now. It's tomorrow's task. More clothes tomorrow than anything.
I got a new roommate. It's hard not being Hailey's roomie anymore, but glad I was able to have a good new one as well. :) I can't pronouce where she's from correctly though... Pennsylvania. You should ask me to say it sometime. Quite funny.
Tonight was my last time at church for awhile... Taught Bible class this morning and my boys were such a joy this past time. Dylan was my favorite. But shhh. I technically shouldn't have favorites. I loved the times it was me and him and he'd have me laughing with cute comments! (mostly about Nemo). I'm going to miss him..
I'm going to miss the Hong family too. My husband, Elijah, who's 3, so he tells me he's married to me. :) But he's a cutie, and no I'm not actually married to him. :) Matthew will be walking when I get back. I've seen that family grow, all 7 kids, up and they are so wonderful. :) I love that family.
Going to miss my parents. This summer coming to an end it bittersweet. I'm ready to go but kinda wishing I could stay just a little bit longer. But Christmas will come soon enough. I'm ready to see everyone again though back at school. I miss everyone.
Well, I shall post again once I get to the sunny state of Florida!! :)

    So what are your plans for next year, or is it too soon to ask?

    Dylan is going to miss you, too!! I can speak for him and say you are definitely one of his favorite Bible class teachers. You had him cracking up last week! :)
    Thanks so much for spending your time home this summer teaching him and that class! We will all miss you! Have a great sophomore semester!

    I used to love it too...but I tried really hard to watch it again recently and I couldn't finish it :/
    I still love the Swan Princess and Anastasia, though...

    I learned my first year that I didn't need everything. I only brought about half of my stuff my second year.

    I agree. It can make for small sibling disputes too. Ask Steffy. x)

Change.

Well I got rid of my facebook. So if you want to keep up with my life, skype me or read these lovely posts.
Second year is coming up and I feel like I already know all the ropes of college. But I feel like new changes will be coming too. Oh to be young again. Well...
I turn 20 this year! A little girl I babysat asked, "That means you'll be ready to be a parent, right?" It made me laugh!
I'm secretary for Psi Beta this year. It's uber exciting. Already got several t-shirts designed! :)
I'm also YWTO Vice President! I'm so excited to work with Sarah, Melanie, and Heather. I want to be involved with it as much as I can. :) It's a good organization.
I'm very very happy for my suite this year! I have a new roommate- Hailey Rose! and my suitemates are pretty cool as well, well actually amazing! Elizabeth Riley and Emily Diestelkamp. All three girls I admire and happy to be living with. :) though I will miss Mallory. I just got used to living with her! haha.
I hopefully have a major picked out... more details to come. :)
I can't wait to see Haley (Renee and Matt too!) again! She's gotten so big and older... she'll be 5 months when I get to see her! I remember being there the day she was born... She's so precious. I just love her.
The end of summer is bittersweet. I've loved being at home with my parents. I think it's going to be a lot harder this year to leave. But I'm ready for school (well the social part anyways!) But my schedule should be good this year. If I don't survive, well, I will!
Tonight : the movie "The Three Amigos" night with parents and my best friend, Tara. :) This means delicious Mexican food. :) and means I get to make homemade tortillas!

I love God.
I love life.
I love you.

    So why did you give up Facebook? Was it all the security breeches that have been in the news?
