Sunday was pretty whatev. I slept in, then went and grabbed to go lunch from the Bean. I did ALOT of school. In the evening I went to Hope by myself. It was weird cause NOONE I knew was there, but it was good. I ate dinner there (baked potato) but I had to rush for Swing Cats. I went to the beginners section hoping to get better at the Lindy Hop...but it got boring cause it was SO basic..so I ended up doing more instructing and helping than anything, but it was alright. After that I spent my whole evening doing school, bluh.
Monday I don't really remember. I had english where we worked on drafting our next paper. It is a classical argument paper and I'm using abortion as my topic. Came back and did some prep for my math class. Math was fine. Chapel was normal, just a speaker. Went to the Bean for lunch. Before U100 I spent the next 1 1/2 reading for Bible out in the courtyard of campus. The weather has been so beautiful like allthe time. IF it rains, its at night or during a class heh..I've barely had to walk in the rain. Right now it's been so perfect with like the perfect temperature, it's awesome. Then I went to U100...we have begun the process of registration. It's SO complicated and overwhelming. Looks like I will only be takign 16 hours next semester, hopefully my classes won't be any harder than this semester. Turns out the history class I'm in was originally on my schedule for my JUNIOR year! yeah its been rough haha. Bible had a pop quiz, but I got it all right! haha. That night I think is when I was getting ready to go see Kate at the Kojie's vs. Siggies game..BIG DEAL. Kate had to dress up crazy like and they have to make a huge entrance. As I'm getting ready to go, Barron from Swing Cats calls saying Ethnos practice in 20 minutes, I need to come or I wouldn't be able to do it much. FRUSTRATING but we had to audition Thursday! SOOO I went. It ended up where we still had to pick a song...SO! I take off running from the theater...head to the field just in time to see Kate's crew come in...get pics...got to hug her..then ran back!!! I ended up leaving there at 10:30 to watch the game cause I was just sitting there as they listened to different music, it was lame, cause we weren't learning anything so I left. It was fun! Madalyn met me...we got drinks...took pics...Kate was crazy of course! I am now leaning more toward pledging. But yeah that was that..we all had to leav eat 11:25 cause curfew, me b/c I'm freshman, Kate cause pledges can't do anything for club after 11:30.
Tuesday I was up in the wee hours before actually going to bed and got to be the first to tell my mommy Happy Birthday..that wa cool. Then when I actually woke up I went to history..lame. haha. Then met Kate to call our mum to sing to her. Kate lost her phone at the game so I couldn't call her and was afraid she'd forgotten, but she didn't. We called and it was funny! Mom was glad. It was fun. Then I went to math...we took a quiz which I did great on. Then just did math heh. Chapel was in Moody...we had our small group chapels around campus..mine is now The tough Questions. VERY interesting questions about doubting God and how do we know our faith is real..intense. From there I went to the Ampatheater. Today I was fasting for National Hunger Day, ACU suggested it. Then we are taking a collection on Friday for the money we might hav espent on meals. But at the ampatheater a group of us were getting together to spend our meal time in prayer and discussion over the topic specifically relating to Africa. It was amazing. After that I went to the library and studied for history until psychology. We had the Sexual Education class...SO interesting haha. I find the whole class so fascinating! After class...um...I went with Madalyn to get her drink and our play tickets. She thought we had to buy them at the civic center where it's showing, but NOPE haha. I started not feeling so hot so I went ahead and had to eat something small at this point (3:40ish). Came back to my room to study. Then at 6:30 went back to the ampatheater for our dinnertime prayer and discussion. Madalyn, Riane, and Amanda came this time. It was an awesome group of girls and it was so inspiring. God really touched my heart with the blessings I have, the concerns for those less fortunate, but mainly the fact that I need to hunger, feel empty, and hurt when I'm spiritually starving MORE than my physical concerns. After that, again to my room to study. Around 9 I went to another Swing practice for Ethnos. It was good, we actually learned some of the dance. Then went back to study around 11. Like really its madness with my 3 major exams and my paper. I didn't lay down for bed until 3AM....
Wednesday I did not have a good start to my day. I woke up at 7 to get ready for my 8:00...I dont remember much except I thought I woke up, Kimber talked to me some, but I felt horrible and couldn't get up. I meant to just lay down longer and go to classin sweats...NOPE! heh I woke up around 10:20 missing both my english and math class. Math wasn't such a big deal, we were just reviewing...but English was peer review of our paper..so that wasn't good. I e-mailed my professor and he took a glance at it, but could only say so much cause he was the final grader. But anyway...when I got up..I looked like and felt like death. I turned to look at Kimber and she goes "oh my gosh you do not look normal! haha My face was WHITE, my eyes puffy like I had been crying all night even though I hadn't, and I had MAJOR dark circles under my eyes. Not cool! Make-up helped some, but not much. I went to chapel, met up with the girls. Went to lunch at the Bean. I had that feeling where the thought of food makes you feel sick, but you KNOW you NEED to eat...not fun. I think it was from the fasting the day before heh. But yeah I started to feel better some after eating but it took a while. I then came back to my room to study until U100. Class went well, more registration. Bible...had very interesting discussion. Then study time. At 5:30 I had another Ethnos practice. Then went to the library to meet Riane and Madalyn to study for psychology exam. But instead we ended up watching Top Model while studying THEN to the library haha. Sam, this guy I kinda got to know finally came too. Dave never showed. It was fun. Came back and did history studying...
Thursday (today)I got up early for my 8:00 history class in which we had a textbook test. This sound sminor...BUT ITS NOT! This teacher is super hard and it takes so muc htime to prepare! Lecture was pretty interesting, but I was distracted by my fear of the test heh. I think I did ok. I'm always like one of the LAST people in there, but I don't care. We got out a little early, so I went downstairs to this den to study for my math midterm. Then went to class and asked a few questions. Then took the test. I feel GREAT about it! Then I went to my room for just a little bit before chapel. Today was small group Chapels and I go to Social Justice Chapel. The singing and speaker were great. I ended up signing up to help collect money at the end of chapel tomorrow and for the social justice volleyball team. We're throwing a fundraisor tournament and want a team to play. It should beinteresting since my hand makes me nervous..oh well. Then I got to go lunch from the Bean. I load up so I have leftovers to have in my room, but look like a pig haha. I came back to study for psychology midterm. The lasagna was REALLY good!!! And I got this YUMMY pasta dish from the Vegan place...oh my was it nice. Then psychology class...test..I feel pretty good I suppose. We shall see. I am anxious about all of my scores. Then I went and got drinks with madalyn to celebrate being done. Then we came back to watch Dr. Phil..crazy angry kids. Dr. Phil just basically repeats what the people say and kind've retell the problem without actually helping them at all haha. Then we watched Oprah. This lady that was secretly spending TONS of money without her husband knowing it and they were in massive sebt soon to loose home. It was crazy. Then Madalyn had to meet a kid for class, so I came to my room and watched Maury while doing stuff. It is SO funny! She joined a bit later until dinner. After dinner I stayed in my room until Ethnos practice. We had our "rehersal" that we just learned about and only had half a dance for but it was cool. I like it so far. Then I RUSHED over to Mabee where we watched the office in that one guy Sam's room. His roommate happened to be Morgan another one of our friends who I really like. Then I came back to finish my English Paper. Then I spent a whole lot of time writing this. And I am done. I need to sleep! haha and You are all tired of reading if you didn't quit already. I REALLY will try to do this more often, but theres always something making it hard! haha Follies, midterms, homecoming week, whatev haha. Thanks for putting up with me and pretending to be interested! love love!

I don't have to pretend to be interested! Even though I saw you this weekend, I still found out more info about your week by reading this. You know your Daddy and I can't get ENOUGH about what you're doing.
You mentioned registration and hours while I was there but didn't talk more specifically about the classes you are taking. You mentioned the art class you decided not to take. I guess since that history class was Jr. year, anything afterward should be a cinch? I am so glad you feel good about your grades to date. I always pray that your tests will accurately portray the effort you put into your work.
When is the Ethnos performance? I hope Kate will be able to go to that and video it for us! I love that you're doing swing dance but can't figure out how I'm going to get to watch it!
By the way, have you checked around to see how you might continue to pursue or at least use your signing? I bet one of the bigger churches has signing and maybe you could work with an LTC group at a church? I would just hate for you to lose that after all your effort.
Daddy is home all this week except Wednesday. He's out at his deer blind right now which is the only reason I have computer access! Felix wakes up at night for some reason. He's attacking a leaf right now. As if it's going to fight back?!
Love you loads and can't wait to see you this weekend! Macy and Kristin were helping with Bible Hour and very excited to hear y'all are coming home.
Gotta get the spaz out of Dad's office. Love you!!!
