Spring is a Comin.

Hello. I feel a little guilty for not writing in so long. It's quiet unacceptable. My friend from school (oh yes TKC is where it's AT), Jesse Scott Owen, (say his name aloud. I dare you. It's fun), told me that I need to blog more. Sheepishly, I agree with him. I told him that I really have nothing to say, but than it hit me. That wasn't the point of this blog. I just like writing what I'm learning, seeing, doing, loving. THAT is the point. To put a little bit of beauty and thought out there. So I'm back, although I'll be leaving just as quickly. I leave for the country of China next Wednesday. and I'll be there for two weeks. Oh don't worry. I will fill you all in when I get back.

So I got an iPhone. It's white and beautiful and I've named it Lou....Ithink. It's a very hard decision.

I've been spending a lot of time at CHC, reading my butt off. I have so much reading. I don't really mind though, I LOVE reading, so when I get to do it for good reason, I'm completely happy.

New babies are in the neighborhood, which is so happy. and more to come which makes me very excited. Hopefully they don't come AFTER I leave for school. *fingers crossed*

Spending time with the bestie is so encouraging. I'm so thankful for My Joi. And I'm so thankful that we're going to King's together. *insert happy dance here*

My sister Maggie and I have been getting super close, which is awesome since we had a rocky start (I was very disappointed that she wasn't a boy when she was born and I kind of held it against her for a couple years.... like she had any say in the matter..) She's growing into a beautiful young lady of God. I love watching her grow up.

I've also been spending a lot of time with this boy here. This kid is my absolute favorite. His dad is my youth pastor and his mom is a mentor. My best friend Susannah and I spend a lot of time at this adorable boy's house with his mom. The three of us also go out a lot with another youth leader. I love those three women so so so so so so much. This year would be so so completely different if they weren't here. They have kept me going throughout the wait for August. Thank you, Lord, for blessing me with these women.

Well, I guess that's all for now. I hope you enjoyed a little look into what my life looks like right now :) Blessings.

a little happiness mixed in

Today had been one of the best school days I've had in a realllyyyy long time.

I've just read. All. Day.

I finished everything else monday and tuesday.

*happy sigh*

now I'm sitting in CHC, drinking coffee, and reading even more. I wish I had time to do this all the time.

This Is Just to Say {by William Carlos Williams}

I have eaten

the plums

that were in

the icebox

and which

you were probably

saving

for breakfast

Forgive me

they were delicious

so sweet

and so cold

{I came across this poem while reading poetry for my AmericanLit class. I love it}

Sweet sweet sweet sweet sweet tea.

Susie Asado.

Sweet sweet sweet sweet sweet tea.

Susie Asado.

Susie Asado which is a told tray sure.

A lean on the shoe is means slips slips hers.

When the ancient light grey is clean it is yellow, it is a silver seller.

This is a please this is a please there are the saids to jelly. These are

the wets these say the sets to leave a crown to Incy.

Incy is short for incubus.

A pot. A pot is a beginning of a rare bit of trees. Trees tremble, the

old vats are in bobbles, bobbles which shade and shove and render

clean, render clean must.

Drink pups.

Drink pups drink pups lease a sash hold, see it shine and a bobolink.

has pins. It shows a nail

What is a nail. A nail is unison.

Sweet sweet sweet sweet sweet tea.
