| Christmas is comin up! YAY! I have this whole week open... i'm doin NOTHING till school starts! a little work here and there... oh, and did i mention.. the Passion Conference? OH MY GOODNESS! Last year was my first time i went. And can i say that that was the most amazing week of my year!? i think so!! I've been counting down the days! Seriously, if you can make it, GO! It's the most amazing spiritual conference i've ever been to!
Ok, heres one story that i LOVE!! Louie Giglio was speaking and said this (translated in my words... come on, its been a year... you expect me to remember word for word? :
"You know how people always look at the moon and are amazed at how cool it is? It just looks so beautiful when its huge and bright in the star lit sky? Well us Christian's are just like the moon. A big ball of dirt. Thats all we are... dirt! But with the sun (aka. Son) shining on us, we reflect his glory and become beautiful to the people of this world. "
So the lesson of the story is: Reflect the Son's love and glory to those around you and not only will they see true beauty, it will be the beauty of Christ!
Christmas is really chaotic. Just remember what its about this season!
Merry CHRISTmas yall!!! | | |
| Yay! I'm finally done with this semester! It was a hard one... But i got straight A's!! First time in my college career.. yay!! At the beginning of the semester i decided to try to live all points of my life for Christ. At UMHB i was on academic probation... so i figured, why not try to glorify God in my grades? I feel like i had no life this semester because of work and school.. but its over!! Next semester is going to be easier yet not. I'm taking math :( i'm SO bad at math! but im also taking digital imaging and design. so pretty easy classes... But im so scared of math!! Pray for me!! | | |
| dude, so i went to a movie tonight and i got out at about 9:00. I just got home. its 4:15. thats right folks... i've been stuck in traffic for that long... and it wasn't even a far drive. i was stuck on bee caves for that long (a road about 2 miles from my house for those of you non-austinites)
i hate ice | | |
| So no news yet.. its official thou... i wont be in austin next august... i cant stand all this drama here. dont get me wrong.. i love the ATX. just not in august... ok.. lemme hear a vote... here are my choices..
random order of course..
a) Apply to the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, Florida... beautiful beaches... beautiful boys :) jk... and if i get the guts, i would ask emily copeland if she needed a photographer and i would go and photograph her and sean murray (only the two best wakeboarders EVER!... plus they love jesus... which makes them a bazillion times better) but thats not likely to work out... ya never know!
b) reapply to Brooks in Santa Barbara.. its the best photography school in America... wonderful school for photography... but i do wana take other classes like design and animation n stuff...
c) Apply to the Art institute of Denver... not near the beach, but near the mountains! its true, i prefer hot over cold.. but denver does rock!
d) stay in austin, keep workin with the high school youth group and just deal with the "drama"
e) become an astrochick and be the first person on mars.
if youve got any other ideas.. lemme know! common now, rachel needs some good imput.. this is my future, people! | | |
| It has been exactly two months and a day since my last post... so i assume EVERYONE is dying to read something new! So im still in austin... Have you ever made a huge decision and then every day for the next semester regreted it? Yea.. no fun. I know God has bigger plans for me but i have yet to see the purpose of me being in austin. I could be learning tons about photography and spending every morning on the beach... but no.. i decided to stay here... and for what? Lord, Please show me! I hate regreting something that i know you wanted to happen... i will never understand your plan for me! Ok... forget it... im just going into the army... :) haha... i kid, i kid. I think i should just get me a man.... get hitched.. make some babies... thats all i want to do anyway, right? is it that bad to not really have goals for my life except to reproduce? hey.. i think thats a great goal! dont diss! i dont want to look back on my life and see it all wasted... Lord, give me better goals for myself! Maybe im supposed to be shipped off to florida to photograph emily copeland and other pro wakeboarders... that would be sweet... Lord, PLEASE let that be your will! im young... i know this is something everyone freaks out about probably 24/7 ... i just feel like im the only one that doesnt have one thing figured out.
i cant wait to go to heaven... dont worry... thats not a death plea... but just imagine... we have the entire spance of the universe to explore! yippee! imagine never getting hurt or dying... just imagine the wakeboard tricks you could do!! im so gonna pull off the first 102942938529823 degree mid air spin! swizeet! | | |
