"IT'S OVER!!!"

(end of Strongbad voice...unless you WANT to imagine it for the rest of the post...that could be humerus) :P

So anyway, yes, Summer Term is OVER! :D I spent all day yesterday studying for my Marriage and Family final and then took it that evening, and then I spent all day today studying for Statistics and went and took it tonight. I'm definitely one of those last-minute people...but it worked out for me, because I only missed 1 question on each of them and got 99% on both! :D Which puts me at an A- for Marriage and Family and an A for Statistics. Kinda backward from what you'd expect, huh? Oh well, at least they're both A's! That will do my GPA good. :) So now I have 2 weeks of freedom before Fall Semester starts! Hooray! So basically that's all, I just wanted to brag a little bit. :)

P.S. Like how I used to post once every six months, and now I'm becoming a blogger addict? ha

This Is the Song that Never Ends...

So I've had this song stuck in my head ALL day long, it's a Colbie Caillat song, Falling For You, and the chorus has CONSTANTLY been going through my head. The part that says,

"I've been spending all my time, just thinking bout you.
I don't know what to do, I think I'm fallin for you."

Ya...can't get it out of my head, so I watched the music video on youtube. It's pretty cute, but the guy on it is really weird...so I decided not to post it, haha. Anyway, that's all...I've just been singing that one line over and over again all day...for obvious reasons...and so it feels like The Song that Never Ends...ya.

And This is My Life...

Wow, so it's been a while...a LOOONG while. Oops...anyway, since it's been forever I figured I'd do a quick update on my life, even though I've talked recently to pretty much anyone who reads this...anyway, here goes.

Summer term ends this week; classes are over, all I have left is my 2 finals. I can't believe how fast the classes went by. I'm really glad I decided to take summer classes, even though I got sick of going to classes and doing homework fairly often, I would have been extremely bored this past month and a half/two months if I hadn't been in classes. Plus the fact that I had a scholarship for tuition and got a pell grant to cover living...so basically school was kind of like my job...which is nice. :)

This past weekend, Keith, Marshall, and I drove our car down to Vegas to visit Garry and Sheri and the kids, which was sooo much fun. It was so good to see them again! It's just always nice to be around more family, and to get away from being surrounded by college for a while. :)

So with getting back from Vegas and finishing up with classes...I don't really have much to do now, except for wait. It seems like I have a lot of waiting to do right now...and it's kinda getting old to be honest. Waiting for the mail, waiting to see who my new roommates will be, waiting for my fall pell grant to come in so I actually have money again, waiting for Fall semester to start up, waiting for Labor Day weekend so we can go down to Garry and Sheri's again and see Mom and Dad, waiting for the week after Labor Day to get here, and then waiting for October....ya, mostly the first and last two things...actually the last 3. Everything finishing up is giving me too much time to think....ugh. But I will be patient, and hopefully find things to occupy my time...or at least other things to occupy my mind, that would work too.

Really though, life is absolutely wonderful right now. Except for time going faster, things couldn't be better. :) Everyday I see more and more the Lord's hand in my life, blessing me. It really is amazing all that He's done for me, especially recently. I've especially been grateful for the ability to call up Mom whenever I need to. We've had some really great phone conversations lately, and I really appreciate that. (although sometimes she just gives me MORE to think about) :P

So anyway, that's my update, although like I said, most of you probably already know everything I said...I mostly decided to do this cause it sounded like a good distraction, however small of a distraction it may have been. :P
