Walking in a Winter Wonderland

It's already Christmas time once again. It seems like just yesterday that I was opening my Christmas presents. The semester is winding down, thankfully. I have three midterms this week then it's break and time to recuperate before the next semester, which I'm nervous about since I will actually be taking real classes on campus and harder ones. I also will only be babysitting the twins twice a week so I'm probably going to need to find another small job. Right now I am trying to procrastinate and not do my homework and since I have no facebook anymore I figured I would update my blog.
I love Christmas time, the decorations, the music which I always forget that you can really praise the Lord and worship Him using Christmas hymns, and I love spending time with friends and family. I think I also feel so much more generous during this holiday season with donating to certain causes which I should probably do more often. Allen and I went and donated blood yesterday which was lots of fun and it feels good being able to help those who have been hurt and need blood transfusion, it only takes a little bit of time and you get so much in return.
Allen is amazing and I am so blessed to have him. He treats me like a princess and looks past the faults in me and sees me for who I am on the inside. He's also great about keeping me in check in my walk with God and just makes me so much happier. Sometimes when I am with him it feels like I am in a dream or something because I don't think I deserve him at all yet I know he's mine and he loves me. :)
I am also blessed to be able to serve such a wonderful God. A God who loves me unconditionally and sees the good in me and forgives me when I make mistakes. He gave me the greatest gift of all which is my salvation and sometimes it's hard to remember that is the true meaning of Christmas, not gifts or music, or even spending time with family. But being thankful for the gift God gave us of his only Son who could die on the cross for us and forgive us of our sins and one day when we die we can go to heaven. God is so amazing and I am so blessed to have all that He has given me. I cannot wait to see what this new year has in store for me and what I can do to help make a difference in His world.

My 19th year

Well the school semester is once again slowly winding down and soon it will be Christmas break. Hard to believe the year is almost over all ready. Last weekend was my birthday and Allen took me to san fran. We went to the Ripley's Believe it or Not museum, the Alcatraz, and the wax museum. It was super fun, I had a great time. Allen is such an awesome boyfriend and spoils me way too much. Afterwards he took me to Chevy's for dinner. It was such a wonderful day. Probably the best birthday I have ever had. :) God has truly blessed me with him as well as a great family and friends. Saturday night I had a birthday party with my friends. We went bowling and then to pizza later. I'm not the best at bowling, but it was so fun seeing my friends I haven't seen in a while and having Allen meet all my friends. He was so good with them though and they all seemed to like him. Thankfully he was also nice to my one friend who most people don't treat the way they should. I'm glad he's so nice to everyone and makes them feel accepted. I'm totally falling for him lol. This is also the first blog I have posted on my new labtop I bought last week thursday. I thought I'd spoil myself for my birthday. Wow I was just reading my old blogs about other guys in my life and I realized how lame I was too like them. I now have this absolutely amazing boyfriend and all because I left it in God's hands. I should have done that long ago.
Give thanks to the Lord for He is good. His love endures forever

Summer Happenings

This summer has been full of events. I now have a boyfriend :D. He's my first bf and he is awesome. On Father's Day I learned I was going to be an aunt, which I've wanted to be forever, unfortunately two weeks ago my sister-in-law had a miscarriage :(, me and her just laid in her bed all weekend and watched movies together. They can try again in another month or so, everyone will be praying things go well with that. On a happier note my cousin Liz just had her baby on the 16th! After losing a lot of blood during labor, Liz was able to return home on Saturday night. We went to visit on Sunday and Liz and little Mason are doing well. Mason Daniel is adorable and so small, I guess I will just have to pretend to be his, Hazel, and Kenny's aunt for now.
My summer speech class is finally over. That class was lots of fun and I actually enjoyed it suprisingly. I'll try to update a little more for my sake of remembering what's been happening in my life.
"Count your many blessings one by one and you'll be suprised what the Lord has done."

Turn Around Bright Eyes

I almost forgot I had this thing. Hmm life has been interesting lately, I started my first day of summer school today, speech class not too excited about it but mar is in it so it should be fun. I can't wait for it to be over lol. Yesterday I met this really cool guy that I have been talking to. He came to my church and we went to lunch with my family he met the whole family too aunts, uncles, cousins, cousins kids, as well as my sister and my parents. The family all liked him especially my little cousin, so we will see where that one goes. I should be focusing on God right now more than guys though.
I'm excited to see what this new school year has in store and what God has planned for me. I see that my best friend is no longer posting so goodbye to her. I will continue to read Kaimelar and the many other people I follow on heres blog.

Not much to say

Hmm I haven't updated in a bit but I'm not sure what there is to say. I finished my first year of college, interesting events with Explorers, talking to shortys, the list goes on and on. Three weeks ago my best friends father died, he was like a father to me as well so that was hard on us, the cancer took him too quickly and we will greatly miss him, but we know he is in a better place and not in pain anymore and we know one day we will see him again. My friend dropped out of school and so I've been hanging out cleaning her house a lot. My other best friend now has a boyfriend, but I can't blog my feelings about that since she reads this. My other friends are finishing up college and will be home soon, hopefully this summer is a good one. We will see what God has in store.

Story of my dog

I should be studying for my anthropology midterm I have tonight, but since I don't even know what to study I will just blog about it instead. Besides, I am feeling pretty proud of myself for writing my entire paper this morning. My dog Mia is lying besides me so I will tell you about the events in her life recently. She went in last week to be fixed, however they discovered she was pregnant! The dad, my german shepherd Bear. Since the puppies would have killed her, saying that she is a pomeranian, we had to abort them, which we were quite upset about. She did well after the surgery and seemed to be recovering quite well until we came home Sunday night from dinner at my brothers and discovered she was bleeding all over the recliner. We picked her up and her incision had come open, and something was hanging out (we later learned it was her stomach lining). We called someone who worked at the vet and she said to wait until the morning to take her in since the hospital would be very expensive. We called the emergency hospital just to make sure and they said to wait. My dad wrapped her in saran wrap and gauze and held her the whole night. In the middle of the night she was bleeding everywhere and we were sure she wasn't going to make it. My dad took her in right away the next morning and they tried to charge us for animal cruelty and abuse for waiting so long. Mia was taken care of and she is doing quite fine now. She has to wear a cone all day which she hates, but who wouldn't? Hopefully she heals quickly so she can go outside again. That's all I had to say.
Well off to my studying.

Nothing is forever

Hmm. I feel like I have gone through my first breakup even though I was never really dating the guy. It's kind of tough and it sucks though. Melissa has been a good friend through it all listening to my ranting and being the one who is mad at him because for some reason I'm not, but the whole fam and my friends are. I'm not mad though I think I am just more in shock or suprised by how much he has changed. He got to be a jerk all of a sudden and decided he didn't really want to talk to me anymore.

College Life

My second semester of college started this week. I am taking online classes again, which is kind of tough, but I like it because I can babysit. I signed up for 5 classes and was on the waiting list for all of them and was accepted into all of them, however I dropped history because it is not a required course for me, at least I don't think it is. So my classes for the semester are Cultural anthropology 102 which is going to be tough I can already tell, English 101, Music Appreciation, and Womens Health. So hopefully I do well and get good grades, because MAR and I are planning on transferring to Fresno next spring. We have to remember to pray about and see what God's will is in our lives. Hopefully all goes well because I am tired of Ripon.

uhhh

The last two days have been full of excitement I guess you could call it. My car has been acting dumb lately and not starting for me and yesterday it just decided it didn't want to start for me or anyone for that matter at all and my dad cannot figure out what is wrong with it which is quite a rarity. Then today I went to the dentist because I haven't gone in like three years and they said my wisdom teeth have cavities and I need to get it pulled cuz otherwise it's going to decay. Whoopee!!!! Then she said that the way my jaw juts out under my tongue I can't ever have dentures so I have to make sure I take really good care of my teeth so they don't fall out. Other than that I do a great job at brushing and have a beautiful smile lol.
But I guess I can't complain I got to babysit my favorite little kids yesterday and they gave me a Christmas present when the people I babysit for everyday didn't even give me a card or anything. My life really is good. I have a wonderful family, the most amazing friends in the whole wide world (mar). Life really is good and I have lots to be thankful for. I can't wait to see the wonderful and not so wonderful things I am sure God will bring in 2009.
