Birthday Blessings

Yesterday was my birthday and I turned the big 2-0. To many of you that is young, but for me it is old. Every year my family asks if I feel any older, the answer is always "no." This year was different. I woke up and felt like I had aged and I felt like I had a big weight on me. I actually shed a tear or two. All of my friends have always been older, and I know that 20 really isn't old, I don't know what my deal is!

This week I had a total of five tests. On my CLEP test I took today I passes which is an answer to prayer! I also got an 89 on my essay test, and will end up with an A in that class! Another answer to prayer. I'm not so sure that I did as well on my two spanish tests though. I guess I'll have to wait and see. The same goes for my physiological psychology test, but it's over now and there is nothing I can do about it.

The upcoming week shouldn't be as busy as this week has been. I have a paper due and I have another speech. I'm also going to take another CLEP test! Everyone please pray for me as I study to prepare for it and then take it!

Summer is approaching soon and I couldn't be more excited! Although I love every season equally, I have certain times of the year where I look forward to each! Right now I am looking forward to summer! Since I passed the CLEP exam I don't have to take as many classes over summer, and hopefully if I pass this next one I'll have to take even less!

Summer is also a time that I get to visit one of my favorite places - Eastern Kentucky! My very best friend lives there along with all of my family. Going there is so relaxing and fun. Life is a whole lot slower pace and I absolutely love it. I was thinking about it today, and a majority of my favorite times in life took place there. My best friend, Jerica, is the best. She understands me and we get along great. We can have fun doing nothing, which is great. I'm the type of person that doesn't have to be doing something 24/7. That being said, we have had some pretty wild times that I will NEVER forget. They are some of the best memories I have. My best friend makes me a better person, and I look up to her! I can't wait to spend the summer with her!

Well, I'm going to leave everyone with a few pictures from my birthday! I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!
