i'm up late for no reason but to have facebook conversations with friends who are sitting across from me


So its currently 2:15 in the morning and im sitting in the atrium of one of the bulidings with 3 of friends( 2 who are trying to work on papers). Work wise we arent getting much done but we're becoming better friends in the process and thats all that really matters right? For me anyways at least. i dont have any homework or papers due till we come back. so for right now im just enjoying my time of not doing anything and being able to hang out with my friends. Next though might be a different story. I'm taking 16 hours but really looking forward to it. im bascially taking elective classes now to just get hours that i need. So hopefully it wont be too hard.



i'm going home on wednesday. I'm excited to be able to go home and see my family and friends. I've only been home once this semester so being able to go home and spending sometime relaxing and having a good homecooked meal is real exciting. I also hope that the weather is nice and warm. im tired of freezing( and its only november).


i watched FRC online this morning since i didnt get up in time to go church. i got to see the new series and im really excited for it. I'm also excited that there is a church here and Jax that is doing the same thing. I think i'm going to take the 30 min drive and check it out.( and maybe take a couple of friends along with me) but i get to be home to experience at least one week live. its really werid because i never would of thought that i'd miss flamingo the way i do but after being at the same church for a year and then trying others has really grown my appreciation towards FRC and everything its grown to be.


God works in awesome ways and i cant wait to see what is going to happen.

Here are some pics from this semester and an some things i wanted to write down

At Alltel Statium (where the Jags play) a picture from our scavernger hunt Some of the crew after a sweet weekend at Jykell Island, Ga camping with Freshmen Bible study

After our game of extreme kickball covered in ketchup, mayo, mustard and a bunch more gross things

As this semester is almost done with I wonder where the time has gone. It seems like I just started college and I’m almost down with my 3rd semester. This year is totally different then last year. I feel like this is home now. I probably should have gone home this past weekend. since we didn’t have school on Tuesday my only classes this week are on Thursday. So I pretty much haven’t done anything over the past couple days. It’s been really nice. I actually have time to breathe and relax and enjoy life. I’ve been able to hang out with people and not worry about having to study or write a paper. This year has gone by so fast. But I had such a good time and maybe it’s a good thing, who wants time to just drag on.
Spiritually I’ve been down. I constantly find myself just going through the motions rather then actually do things purposefully and whole-heartedly. I’ve gotten into such a routine even of you can call it that. I’ve just found myself wanting more when I’m not giving anything. I stepped down from doing life group on Sunday. How can I tell high schoolers to have a relationship with God and to live a certain way when I myself cant even do that. I’ve been looking for another church. One that will challenge me more in my Faith. I find Chets to be a comfort zone. Some of my friends go there so it was just easy to go there, to be a Christian there. But I’m looking to see what else is out there. Maybe there is somewhere else that I can go where I’ll get something out of the service and be moved every time I leave. I’ve been working on the spiritual side of things this week. I’ve given more time to God. To reading his word. I feel better about the way things are going in my life in only the couple days I’ve made a change in things. Things are looking good. Im looking forward to the end of the semester. To be able to spend some time home and with family.

i hate picking classes

i need to take 5 classes next semester and they'll total anywhere from between 15 to 18 hours depending on what i take. unfortunately to my dismay 3 of the classes i want/need to take are only offered once next semester. On the same days at the same time. so right now im stuck trying ot figure out what to take next semester without wasting credit hours. this stinks!!!

i've been sick for a week and my worlds going crazy

I love college life. I love being on my own and being able to make choice for myself. i love the friends i've made and the good times we have together. i love being spontaneous. I love that everyday holds something different.

but lately i havent i've just been draging spiritually, physically, emoitionally. Theres something that i feel is missing and i cant figure it out.
this semester has been challenging for me is so many ways. I've decided to take a different path with my major, i've become distant with those who were closest to me but gaining some awesome friends in return, my spiritual life is lacking in every departmentand i'm searching for a new home church that i can grow spiritually from. i find that who i am and what i want have changed so much just over the time i've started this semester. growing up certainly does take a toll on your emotions.

but on brighter side i got to vote inmy first presidential election. well i sent in my vote. but its still cool to know that i did my part as an american to pick the leader of my country. Hopefully that person will win. I dont think we're ready for the changes obama is gonna bring.

this is such a random post seeing as i havent posted for over a month
