One would think that something deep and profound would have happened to me in the past month or so since I've posted. I can honestly say I don't think anything has happened. Since I've been home from school I've managed to go back to Indiana twice and during the first trip I really learned some "life lessons" as lovely as they are.
Life lesson #1 : Girls are stupid. Shock of the century right there huh? Basically what it comes down to is girls are lame and they're mean and catty. I'm the first to admit that I can get like that but for the most part I just try to be chill because really who wants to stay in a high school state of mind forever? Not this chick...
Life lesson #2 : Not all boys should be trusted. That's a lesson I really should've learned a long time ago but for some reason I like to be naive and think that the bad apples are in the minority...when in reality they're the majority. I mean I know there are still some class act guys out there but up until recently I just kept finding douche bag after douche bag. To use a Caleb quote...NOT GOOD. Needless to say...I've definitely become a little paranoid about the people I hang out with. Last thing I need is a replay of some of the things that have happened this past semester.
Life lesson #3 : This one is one that has been drilled into my head over the past few months...I can thank my dear friend Josh for it and his love of John Piper. Don't Waste Your Life. Each day should be a day where I grow spiritually and find ways to serve Christ in my life. For me I know I don't always reflect a Christ-like attitude. I screw up a lot and I know that..shoot everyone knows that. I'm not going to try and make an excuse by saying its 'hard' or something else equally lame. Creating excuses won't do anything and it won't help me better myself. To quote relient k...the truth is excuses are lame. accept consequence, accept the blame. Based on stupid choices that I've made in the past...I'm still reaping the consequences and yeah it sucks but you learn to just go on and not make the same mistake twice...or three times...etc. Moral of the story is...Don't Waste Your Life (Phil. 1:20-21) [Josh...you're the best]
on a less serious note...here is a list of random things I've accomplished...
- I learned how to spell 'definitely'. I'm almost 20 years old for goodness sake and I didn't know how to spell it. Thank goodness for T9word.
- I completed my 60 hours of observation for my major. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be...I'm curious to see what it would be like in a public school.
- I've made about a million cards [slight exaggeration] but really I haven't made any cards in a long time...so this was thrilling
- I (well ok...mommy) bought me Criminal Minds season 2. I don't know why I find the show so interesting but its quickly become an obsession.
- I currently have a Jack Johnson obsession. Lucky for me I have friends that are obsessed as well. Hooray for mix cds.
