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!

Easter and Birthday

I hope everyone has had a blessed Easter! I just want to remind everyone that Easter isn't about bunnies and eggs and candy. It is about Jesus dying on the cross and for us and rising the third day!

I had a wonderful Easter! I was blessed to get to spend it with my parents and sister! Friday my parents drove up and spent the weekend here. They always come up for my sister and my birthdays and it just so happened that this year we celebrated my birthday and Easter!

Basically this weekend was filled with family and lots of eating. My diet went right out the window. I'm not really worried though, because I didn't go too off track and I'm ready to start working out again!

Friday night was a lot of fun! My college has a circus and students perform. It is one of two college circus' in the nation! I have to admit it was pretty cool and I was on the edge of my seat the majority of the time!

My parents left a few hours ago and then I started working on all of the homework I had. This week I have two tests, a quiz, a 10 page paper that is a test. That isn't even including the other homework I have! On top of that I am going to take one of the CLEP tests on Friday! Please pray that I pass it!

Well, I have finished with most of my homework and I'm about to eat dinner and then watch Fireproof! I've heard it's a great movie and I love all of the other movies by the church!

I hope everyone has a great week!

Oh no!

It is finally April! While this is one of my favorite months, it also seems to be the busiest!

I only have two weeks of school after this week and then one week of finals! My first thought is that I'm alsmot done. But after that split second I remember how much work I have to do and everything I have to get done.

But, I don't want to think about that, so I'm going to talk about all the fun stuff. This coming Sunday is Easter! I love Easter! It is a great time to celebrate the Lord and how He sacrificed Himself for our sins. It is also a time I get to spend with family.

Four days after easter is my birthday. It is so weird to think that in a little over a week that my age won't end in "-teen." I feel like I have been a "teen-ager" for forever! I am so excited for what the twenties have to offer!

So after Easter and my birthday comes two weeks and then NO SCHOOL! Woo-hoo! I'm so excited!

Lately I have been trying to eat healthier and have been working out a little as much as possible. I know it's not a lot, but hey, you have to start somewhere. Along with trying to be healthier I have continued to read the Bible daily. I look forward to it and even have found myself reading more than I am supposed to! I can't put it down which is a good thing!

Okay, so Morgan just got home, so I need to go be productive with my school work and cleaning!
