This weekend I had Micaela and Chels staying with me; they came to visit for the weekend. Friday night we went to Ameci's with some of my friends then went to a game night that my friend Shannon and her roommates were holding in/outside of their dorm. Ninja, ultimate spoons, and great people made for a really fun night! The next day we went to Santa Rosa to go shopping, walked the campus, then went to Mary's and rented Up. This morning it was time for them to go home, and I really wished I could have gone with them! But just one more week till I can go home! I can't wait to be with my dog especially; poor little guy is slowing down... And I can't stand the fact that I'm so far away from him. I want to get home as soon as possible so I can lay with him and as much time with him as possible!

After church this morning, I finished watching Up, and if you have not seen that movie yet, you should! It is now one of my new favorite Disney movies! Tonight I was really productive and I got a lot of homework done. But throughout all the fun of this weekend, I realized by tonight that I had kind of neglected reading my Bible and having quiet times this whole weekend. And even now, it's already midnight and I'm just now getting ready for bed then I plan on reading my Bible. Making time for my quiet times and having my priorities in line is something I've been trying to work on lately, but it's hard when I have so many things planned and so much to do. But it's even harder for me to comprehend Isaiah when I'm extremely tired. I just don't want to say that God is such a big part of my life, but not live in a way that shows that. I feel so disconnected and distant from God when I miss a day of reading my Bible or I don't write in my prayer journal. It's so hard to find a balance, but that's my goal this week... To do my quiet times before homework and to really center my life around God. This should really be my goal everyday (:

The ways of this world are grabbing a hold; won't let me go, won't let me fly by. It takes it's toll down on my soul cause I know what I need in my life. Don't let me lose my sight of You.
