Well, summer is here and for the first time in my life it is also nonexistent. I will be working full time this summer away from home and lately it has been really hard to get used to. Right now, my employers just have me doing office-type work (scanning, filing) and doing that for 8 hours a day gets a little tedious. I always want to feel useful and appreciated, but so far this summer I don't feel like I am really doing anything that matters and that is hard for me.
I have always wanted to have a job that has a deeper meaning than just making money. One that could impact peoples' lives, or make a difference in the world, but I am having trouble seeing how I will realize that desire with a job in accounting. I know I can still help people and show God's love to others, but nonetheless I just feel like it is an office job that will help me get by in life. I know God must have a purpose for me in all of this though and that he has blessed me with the ability to do this type of job well- so for that I am thankful.
Here are a few random thoughts/observations:
Why is college so expensive and how has the cost of tuition increased such an incredibly high amount since my parents were in college? I mean, even state schools are really expensive (it would have cost me just as much to go to a public university as a private one) so I am not just considering my university. It makes me dread having to put my children through school someday and also wonder how much school will cost then. It will be interesting to see how paying off students loans will affect my generation. It seems like my parents' generation has had a lot of trouble with credit card debt and things like that, but I feel like my peers and I have been educated enough about the dangers of credit debt that we won't have such a huge issue with that. Instead, we will struggle to pay off our student loans.
Also, why do people not use their turn signals, especially if you are on the highway and slowing down from 70 mph to 30 so you can turn off onto some tiny dirt road? Seriously people, come on. I do not enjoy slamming on my brakes and avoiding hitting the back of your car because you didn't feel like warning me you were going to slow down and turn until you were already turning.
I have recently discovered that I really love grilling food, Texas, minitature horses, the smell of racing fuel, LOST, riding bikes, and having moments that make you realize how blessed your life actually is.
Journaling or blogging always helps me to put things into perspective and pause for a moment and realize what things are truly important. I don't usually write whenever I am feeling down, but today, I just felt like I really needed to. I know things will get better, but it is really tough right now for me having to move into this new phase of my life. Endings and beginnings are always hard, but I get through them eventually and look back and see how much they helped me to grow.

tests
I'm not quite sure why professors feel the need to give tests on a Friday. I mean, Wednesdays are the perfect days for tests: You don't have to study over the weekend, but you aren't totally drained from the rest of the week already... which is my case tonight. I have two tests tomorrow, and my brain is really tired of learning for the week. Besides, pretty much every college student knows that Thursday is the new Friday. Professors should know that by now.
Also, when I know I have something important I know I should be studying for I can't bring myself to do it and end up doing random, strange things instead. For instance, last year, Poddie Whittaker and I stayed up past 3 am learning how to Bollywood dance and eating Swedish Fish after watching Slumdog Millionaire instead of studying for finals. Do I regret this decision? Not at all. It was one of the most memorable school nights I have ever had. I am having a similar situation now... although it isn't quite as fun. I'm sitting here with my Geology and Management books open on my bed and my notes all over my lap, but I am blogging and watching NCIS... it is quite nice =)
I have learned through my years at college that sometimes you have to do things that are impractical in order to have memorable experiences. That is something I was never very good at doing pre-college. So what if I made a few points lower on a Bible final? I had fun, and got closer to a friend.
I am so glad I decided to go to school here. I will be the first to admit- my first couple of years here were not very good. People always had told me what "college" was, how everyone makes like 25373838 friends, and how you have to be involved in every little thing for it to really be college. And because of that, I went through my first couple of years not really liking things because college was not living up to its expectations. But finally, when I stopped trying to meet everyone else's expectations and trying to participate in things that just made me feel awkward (and more lonely) I started having a lot more fun and gaining confidence in myself. As cheesy as it sounds, I now feel like I know who I am and like I have found myself. So what if I am not a social butterfly who wants to be out and about all the time? That is just not who I am. I have my good friends and the things I enjoy doing, and to try and form myself to anything different just won't work as I have realized.
Another thing I have loved about going to school here is my professors. There are very few schools where your profs will have you over for a BBQ, or invite you over to play Deal or No Deal at their house for bonus points on a test. They are also godly people who encourage me and make me want to do my best.
In other news, my roommates and I are currently "house hunting" and it is not an easy experience! When we finally find one we like and decide we would like to pursue living there, the owner (who previously had impressed on us that no one else is interested) calls and says someone is thinking about buying it. Or the houses are too expensive. Or they smell like smoke. Or they are way too far away from campus. AGH!!! But I know something will turn up soon. It always does, and then I regret worrying about it so much.
I also realized that coffee truly does work. I usually cannot stay awake in Business Law for the life of me. Like seriously... someone could set loose a wild money in the room and I would still have droopy eyelids. But today, thanks to the power of delicious vanilla hazelnut coffee, I actually remembered what we talked about!
My textbooks are calling my name... Blessings to you all

yay!
Oh man... I am so excited about everything that is coming up! First of all, my birthday is coming up really soon and I am so glad I get to spend it at my grandparents house with all my family! They will definitely spoil me =). Next, there is graduation, and it will be so fun! I can't wait to have my loved ones here in town with me. It will also be good to know I am finished with yet another phase of my life that has involved copious amounts of schoolwork.
Also, I can't wait to move into my new house in May. It will be so nice to live with two fun, and wonderful friends who will be a huge encouragement to me. It will also be really nice to not be in an apartment again. People in the surrounding apartments are so loud and my room is so tiny! I love decorating and getting new things for where I will be living =)
I joined a health club recently and I am really loving going to combat, yoga, and RPM classes. Other than that, it is just life as usual for me: school, work, cooking dinner, homework, and (hopefully) sleep.
p.s. I really want to go to Israel! The culture of that area and the history of it has always fascinated me. However, I wish that area of the world was more safe and peaceful. Wouldn't the world be a better place if people spent more time on trying to love than on trying to get back at people who have wronged them?

Mouths
While I have 'known' it my whole life, I don't think I ever understood the full importance of it until recently- The importance of what comes out of our mouths. Sure, the tongue can be "as sharp as a sword" but I don't think we really understand that most of the time.
As a college student surrounded by peers, I am constantly amazed at the effortless flow of crude language from people. Words that I used to think were just beyond horrible and shouldn't even be mentioned, I now hear probably 30 times a day (if not more). When all that people hear out of your mouth is nastiness and words not accepted in public by mainstream society, how can you blame them for judging you? I know people should not judge each other, but you should not be offended or surprised when people do judge you based on what they consistently hear you say. I can tolerate most language (while I am not desensitized to it), but one phrase I will not ever get over hearing people exclaim in anger or frustration is "Jesus Christ!" To me, it is just totally unacceptable and sacriligious to take a name that should be holy and set apart and use it as a common curse word.
So come on people- clean up your mouths. If you want to sound vulgar,common, and nasty go for it. But no one will aplaud you. It is much more enjoyable to be around a well-spoken, graceful, and humble person.

On another note, spring is almost here! I could not be any more excited about seeing the blossoms in the trees or noticing the gradual change of jeans to capris. This spring and summer, I fully intend to be "girly"- wearing cute sandals, flowery skirts, and frilly blouses are a few of my favorite things=) No more dry skin, large sweatshirts, or hair full of static!
I am also really excited for spring break. Being home with my family, taking my dog on walks, playing tennis, and having Dad make me waffles in the morning is the best.
I live in a constant state of amazement at the blessings I have been given. I am so thankful for my friends and my wonderful family. I love you all =)

average
So, I guess things are pretty good right now. I usually don't update a whole lot when there isn't that much going on since I don't have that much to talk about. I love my job more and more each day, and I am feeling pretty optimistic about my classes.
So right now, I am listening to my top favorite songs of all time. It puts me in pretty much the best mood ever when I listen to these five songs:
1. Your Song- Ewan McGregor in Moulin Rouge
2. Strawberry Swing- Coldplay
3. February Song- Josh Groban
4. Supermassive Black Hole- Muse
5. Read My Mind- the Killers
While I'm at it, I might as well list my top 5 favorite movies of all time. In descending order:
1. Kingdom of Heaven
2. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (can't seperate them)
3. The Patriot
4. The Prestige
5. Casino Royale
That was really difficult to list my top favorite for those categories! I love music and movies. They really help get my mind away from school, work, or other things I don't want to think about at the time. As do books. Here are my favorite books in no particular order. These are the books that I have read the most times or that I would never mind reading over and over:
1. The Twilight Series- Stephanie Meyer
2. The Harry Potter Series- JK Rowling
3. Any Michael Crichton novel. I can't decide which is my favorite (Jurassic Park, Pirate Latitudes, The Andromeda Strain, Prey, Congo, Airfram, Timeline... I love them all and would read them any day)
4. Angels and Demons- Dan Brown
5. Pride and Prejudice- Jane Austen
Just listing all of these things makes me very happy =) It is always good to take a step back from the average, every day things that stress you out and take a couple hours to refresh, relax, and renew your hope in humanity haha.

Start of the spring semester
Wow! I had such a great Christmas break. I loved all the time I got to spend playing games, relaxing, and watching movies with my family. David and I went to all my favorite restaraunts that are not in town and we even went to Holiday at the Park at Six Flags. It was really fun to ride the Titan when it was freezing outside! David got me a Kindle for Christmas, so I was able to spend a lot of time on it reading and looking up new books. Mom and I went shopping a couple times to try and find me some work clothes for my new job.
Well, I'm back in this windy old city now. Fortunately, the weather isn't too bad- it has gotten above 45 degrees every day since I have been here. I started my new job at the accounting firm here in town on Monday. The people there are super nice and put me to work on clients' tax returns barely an hour after I first stepped into the building. I have a feeling it will be a lot of busy work, but hey, what are interns for? haha
I don't think any of my classes should be too hard this semester. Just lots of reading and studying. I am taking Geology, Strategic Management, Business Law, Income Tax, and my first graduate class, Advanced Financial Statement Analysis.
Hope this finds everyone well and enjoying the many blessings of life.

Thanksgiving
Well, now that Thanksgiving is over, I guess the official Christmas season has begun and I could not be any more excited =) Our Thanksgiving holiday in Lubbock was wonderful. I could not have asked for a better time or more fun people to be with. All of the food was delicious and there was a ton of it (enough even for the 23 of us!) It was really great to get to bond with all of my cousins, especially the ones I won't see for 3-4 years as they are moving to Papua New Guinea to do mission work. I know they will have such an adventure, but I will miss seeing them for that long.
I have so much to be thankful for in my life. I was born into such a wonderful family that loves me so much. I sometimes muse about how different my life could have been if I had been born to a poor family in New York, natives in Brazil, or a really rich family in California. Things could be so different, but I am glad they are not. I love my life and most everything in it. The only thing I would change right now is that I would be done with school and moving on to the next stage of my life. I know, I know. Supposedly college is the best time of your life, and things only get more stressful after it. But I won't miss the papers and homework, having to worry about tests constantly, and the mundane/boring classes. I'm just a little tired of being at college. It kinda makes you feel cut-off from the rest of the world, like the only thing that matters is school work. But I could not be more appreciative that I am blessed enough to be here.
Now, for a short week of school and then finals week. Christmas will be here so soon!!!

Worries
I have been so preoccupied lately with the inundation of worries in my life. I recently got an internship to begin in the spring, and just thinking about starting a new job and the stress that entails has really been hard on me lately. Don't get me wrong- I feel so blessed to get an amazing job with a lot of potential, but starting a new job is always scary.
So this morning, I did something I wouldn't normally do, but I really felt like I needed to get back in touch with myself and work through some personal issues so I stayed at home rather than going to church this morning. I decided to look through Beltway's sermons they have on their website, and I was blessed to find one totally focused on worrying. Did you know our word "worry" originally came from the word "worien" which meant "to grasp by the throat with the teeth and lacerate or strangle to death" ? We really do torment ourselves with things that we cannot change or fix. If we focus on those things, it will only "strangle" us in a way and prevent us from enjoying life and the joy God wants us to have.
It helped me so much to be reminded of the importance of trusting in God. Finding true, Godly peace does not come from the lack of hardship or troubles, but rather from the knowledge of that God is present in our lives and cares for us.

woops!
Man, you know what is the worst? When you thought up something amazing to do/say, but it is too late. For example, a really good comeback to an insult, an amazing idea of what to dress up as for Halloween, or the fact that a good TV show was on that you should have watched, but didn't know it was on.
Additionally, I really want a puppy. I hope I get to live in a house next year that allows dogs.
Now, back to tedious work at the library.

New School Year
Wow. I can't believe this is my senior year. College has flown by! I am enjoying most of my classes even though they are a lot of work. My schedule is also amazing!!! On Monday and Wednesday, I have Bible, Cross Training, and Advanced Accounting. On Tuesday and Thursday, I have Business Law, Auditing, and Business and Professional Writing. On Fridays, all I have are Bible and Cross Training, which is amazing. Although I will have to study a lot this semester, I am enjoying my classes and what I am learning. I am feeling like this college is really preparing me to be an accountant someday, in whatever field I choose to be in.
I have been feeling so blessed lately. I have an amazing family who supports me and encourages me, and I have a wonderful boyfriend that helps me through hard times and helps me calm down when I am stressed out. I love having my own room in an apartment this year- it really makes me feel like I am more at home in this city away from my home. Living in the dorms just always made me feel like I was camping out away from home. I also have some great roommates/apartment-mates that are fun to be with and help me out whenever I need it. While it hasn't been good for me financially, getting my hours cut in half at the library is really probably best for my school work and my stress level. I think 10 hours a week is really all I could handle right now anyways. I am also really enjoying being a part of a lifegroup and I recently joined the SALT organization so I look forward to all that will entail.
I know I have to make a lot of decisions this semester concerning grad school and things like that, but I am really not all that worried about it and am actually starting to look forward to what the future may hold. It is really nice to finally feel at home here and to not mind being away from home. The past two years were really hard in that regard, and I am glad I feel more independent and integrated into college life.

A little bit of life
This is one of those times where I really want to write a great post, full of humor and wisdom. However, I have none of those things right now haha.
The past couple of weeks, I have just been working at the school, and am getting to be more adept at answering phones and doing receptionist work. It's not as bad as I thought it might be. Everyone here is very nice and helpful.
Every day, I am getting more and more ready to go back to school. I am actually pretty excited to start classes again. I can't believe this is my last year of school! I would be really really excited... except for the fact that I will more than likely be doing graduate school. blah. I have so many questions about grad school, and am a little stressed out when I think about it. So I am just not going to think about it. haha
