sometimes i dream about meeting mr. right... i guess every girl does huh?? :P

Sometimes my life just don't make sense at all. When the mountains look so big, and my faith just seems so small. So hold me Jesus, cuz I'm shaking like a leaf. You have been king of my glory, won't you be my prince of peace.

I don't understand some people. You make yourself vulnerable and put yourselves out there for them. You smile and say good morning or you write them a quick note to ask them how they're doing. And to me it's the lowest form of selfishness to ignore gestures like that. I'm not asking to be your best friend. I'm just trying to reach out and be a friendly person. Besides... I thought we were more than just aquaintances.
There's going to be no crying, no begging, and no pleading. My friendship's free; take it or leave it. Simple as that.

the things we wished we'd said

Life goes by so fast. We couldn't slow it down even if we wanted to. Wait... wasn't it just yesterday that I was that kid with a big imagination and big dreams? Wasn't it just yesterday that I put on my PA sweater for the first time or went grad dress shopping with my friends? Wasn't it just yesterday that I got my University acceptance letter and had sleepovers with my bestie talking about everything we were going to do after grad? Honestly, I can't believe that it's been over a year since grade 12 ended and that I'm heading to the halfway point of my undergrad degree. Whaaaattt?!?!
I guess what I'm trying to say is that sometimes I get so caught up in things that don't really matter. Life is short and there is only really one purpose for me on this earth - glorifying God and living out His plan for my life. Not my plan. His plan. I don't want to veer off of His path, but it happens so easily because there are so many distractions and I feel like sometimes I'm being pulled a million different ways. I just don't want to have any regrets. I don't want to miss the mark. I want to make the most of every moment I have because time is ticking away.

Speak now.

Here i am sitting in the library and it feels like i never left, even though 4 months and a whole ton of new experiences/memories have come between first and second year. I was so blessed by Summer 2011 in more ways that I can even say. I'm so happy to be back on campus though and reunited with my nursing class and other friends again :) I can't believe how blessed i am to be here and i will never ever take this place and its people for granted.
