Rejoice (:

Thanks to the coffee I picked up from Charlie Brown's this morning after philosophy, I managed to stay awake and completely focused today during math! That is a true accomplishment for me. After my classes this morning I had a one on one meeting with my student teacher from my university class. We sat and talked outside for awhile; it was nice to get to know her better. Right after that I met up with one of my Bible study leaders, Shannon, and we went back to her room and had lunch. It was a lot of fun... Her roommates are all really nice and Shannon is probably one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet. Also, her room is probably the most amazing thing ever! She lives in Tuscany, and it is SO pretty! But anyways, after my lunch with Shannon, I came home and started to feel pretty nauseated. So when I went to ballet I ended up just watching the class (which was alright with me!). Then I came home and it was time for Bible study. I loved the passage we went over tonight; it was about rejoicing in your sufferings and rejoicing in God just on a normal basis in everything you do. And I know I say this all the time, but the people in that group are some of the most amazing people I have ever met. They are the most genuine and caring people; they don't hesitate to pray for you, give you a hug when you need it, or make time to hang out. I'm just so blessed to have them in my life.

"If you feel depressed with past regrets, the shameful nights hope to forget can disappear they can all be washed away. By the one who's strong can right your wrongs, can rid your fears dry all your tears and change the way you look at this big w...orld. He will take your dark distorted view and with His light He will show you truth... And again you'll see through the eyes of a little girl"

-Jonny Diaz ...I think I can listen to this song 100 times and not get tired of it. It's just one of those songs that makes me feel so loved and happy to be me.
