good riddance, 2010.
i should have known that beginning the year among 20,000 other believers at the OneThing conference worshipping God through music, scripture and prayer would be setting unrealistic prescendence for the months to follow, but the optimist in me simply refused to believe it.
the first few months of 2010 were tough for me. torn between feelings for my best (guy) friend and my ex-boyfriend (with whom...

Cheesy Christmas Traditions Make Me Smile.
like wearing goofy reindeer antlers and dancing around the house to Christmas music with my parents. and spending Christmas eve morning baking and decorating Christmas-shaped sugar cookies with Mom, Kris, and Matt (since i have only been in the country for one day of this nearly-over Christmas season). and how sick i feel after eating ten spoonfulls of icing and twenty bites of raw cookie...

TODAY
was the most dysfunctional day of my life.
we managed to get only half of our group on the train home due to a last minute decision to “try to catch an earlier train ride home,” leaving half of us two hours from Regensburg with no way to communicate with the rest of the group.
we, being the responsible left-behind half, took it upon ourselves to plan an alternative route home, only...
today, i had what mom and i like to call a mental...
and it was fantastic.
i have decided there are things i am much looking forward to, and these are a few of them:
1. enjoying to the fullest my last eleven days in Germany. this means lots of pictures, exploring, and late nights with my friends here. 2. purchasing Christmas presents for my favorites back home, and seeing their reactions when they get them. 3. hugging Kristopher Lee Adams!!! 4....
You won’t relent Until You have it all. My heart is Yours.
I’ll set You as a seal upon my heart, As a seal upon my arm. For there is love that is as strong as death, Jealousy demanding as the grave. And many waters cannot quench this love.
Come be the fire inside of me, Come be the flame upon my heart. Come be the fire inside of me, Until You and i are one.
