I have been sick with a nasty cold/virus this week, so blogging has been light. Here are a couple of posts that I’ve found beneficial this week. It’s my hope and prayer that they bless and encourage you too 🙂
Lanier Ivester at YLCF has posted a wonderful series on watching out for wolves. Don’t be fooled by the title, ladies! Be sure to read part one and two!
And while we’re on the topic of series, Hannah and Lindsey at Beauty from the Heart, are starting a series of posts regarding Heaven. I loved the first installment and can’t wait for more! Also, if you live in the Richmond, Virginia or Dallas, Texas area, but sure to register for their one day conference!
Suzanne Hadley at Boundless Line discusses my friend Tim Sweetman’s article regarding Facebook. Interesting stuff! EDIT:: I have decided that it would be wise to disable my facebook account for a very long time. No telling when I’ll return, but for now, I’m relishing the extra time I have to pursue other activities!
And I’ll leave you all with this article. The title says it all: Senate reviewing how college football picks No. 1.
Happy Weekend 🙂 I’m off to get some rest!
I am now on a wheat-free and mostly diary-free diet. Loving it 🙂
The sun is shining today.
I am teaching two piano students today.
I created a new word today.
Jesus loves ME. Simple truth, but sometimes we need these reminders 🙂
I took a much-dreaded speech examination this afternoon.
Tomorrow is my last day of school for the week.
Oranges that are purple on the inside are quite interesting. Taste great, but psychologically, it’s rather weird.
I love photography more than I realized.
There are only seven more weeks till my semester is over!
…I’m three full days behind on my bloggity marathon. But I have some valid excuses 😉
On Saturday, Sarah Modene came and visited me for the day 🙂 Unfortunately, both of us forgot about pictures.
Sunday I was able to spend some quality time with my grandparents since my birthday is coming up. They took me up to Ruth’s Chris which is a really nice steakhouse. I am still stuffed!
Any extra time was spent gathering research for a panel discussion I had this afternoon.
So there are my excuses. I’m getting back on track as I have some really neat posts to share with you all this week 🙂 Hope everyone had a lovely weekend!!!
For the month of February, I am going to do a posting marathon here at my blog. Even if it’s one sentence, a Bible verse or a dissertation (hehe…), I plan on posting 🙂 I know it’s not February yet, but tomorrow and Sunday I’ll be very busy…
I do have a couple of things I’d like to share though 😉
-A local youth theatre is putting on West Side Story this weekend 😀 My brother happens to have a lead part and I’m stoked about seeing it!! If you live in the metro-Detroit area, think about going (details here). This isn’t just your average youth production company and they have poured hours and hours into this. It’s going to be awesome!
-I was accepted to the University of Michigan this afternoon 😀 😀 😀 I knew I’d get in when I applied because I’m a transfer student, but still 🙂 It’s official now 🙂 If all goes well, I’ll be pursuing communications and will graduate in 2011!!!
Have a wonderful weekend! (oh, and sorry for the amount of smiley faces. I’m just really excited 😀 😀 :D)
In my speech class today, we did an impromtu by answering these three questions in 30 seconds:
If you were able to meet anyone for dinner…. (my answers are in bold)
a) Who would you chose (they can be deceased or alive)?
Queen Elizabeth
b) Where would you meet them?
Windsor Castle or Buckingham Palace, it wouldn’t matter to me.
c) What would you talk about?
We would discuss British history and the history of the British monarchy and how it affected Europe. I’d also want a tour of whichever castle I was at with an explanation of the various artifacts that are housed there. (I know, such a history junkie…)
HOW WOULD YOU ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS?
