Can I order some snow for the holiday season?
Since that's prolly not going to happen... I guess my new shoes, new old books, and retouched hair will have to do. Still... snow would be great! I'm so eager for the end of the semester. I am thrilled that things are coming together pretty well.

Stephenie Meyer, originally uploaded by SheReads.

First Stephenie Meyer was writing the first book (Twilight) over again, from Edward's perspective, then a draft of the first chapter leaked on the internet, she was heartbroken, decided to keep writing, and now she can't bring herself to keep writing, for she might change the story and kill off characters. I thought I was done, but she posted by leaked drafts on her site. I can't ignore what I might never see fully published. Stephenie Meyer, you leave me alone. You knew that I wouldn't be able to resist reading more. You just need to stop writing these incredibly addictive and altogether wonderful teen novels!! I'm sorry, but we are not on good terms anymore, Stephenie Meyer.

*sigh*
I hope it's still published. :)


A song that my sister wrote:
<sub>"It's Twilight"

Oh, I've been waiting
For the day you would come
And my patience is fading
I can't stay away

Tell me why
Tell me how
I can't survive without you
Your scent
Driving me wild
It's twilight
You're in my arms tonight

Do you swear you won't leave me?
No question, you are my life
The only thing it would hurt me to lose
I'm afraid to close my eyes

Tell me why
Tell me how
I can't survive without you
Your scent
Driving me wild
It's twilight
You're in my arms tonight

I love you more than anything in the world
Is it even enough
You're ready to give up everything
Yes it's enough for forever

Tell me why
Tell me how
I can't survive without you
Your scent
Driving me wild
It's twilight
You're in my arms tonight</sub>

Dance fascinates me... All forms.
I love that people are able to communicate a range of emotions through the movement of dance. It's not simply a receive and process interaction either... Watching and observing dance often draws out the strong urge to move in rhythm alongside that individual, couple, or group performing for you. I am so thankful for dancing. :)

love notes via text messaging

See why I love fall..., originally uploaded by littlesilverboxes {Katrina}.

I received several texts today from various people... None stood out to me as I tore through my history text and books on the Columbian Exchange for my presentation tonight, but two small texts from Greg. I was just finished and hurrying to print my paper and run out the door when I received them. The first was this:

I'm freaking out.

Immediately, I reacted in a very selfish way and began with my mental gripes about how I had it so much worse than he could right now, after spending a full day rushing through text to get a half-assed and only slightly-intelligent response to the prompt that simply directed me to study the Columbian Exchange. That was all I had!! Everyone else had a in-depth question that forced them to think and dive into the material to find an answer and I had nothing. I had to make some in-depth response out of the most obvious prompt I could possibly imagine. However, I held myself back and just asked him, "why?" Just as I hopped in my car to head to class, he responded with this text:

Cuz my heart doesn't ache. I have nothing to be sad about. I'm too happy. I don't have anything to brood over and figure out solutions to.

I prayed as I drove to class, thanking God for His blessings.

worker trampled to death by black friday shoppers

Jingle belt..., originally uploaded by ArTeTeTrA [ArTe e TeTrA SoLo a TrAtTi].

Wal-Mart Worker Trampled to Death by Frenzied Black Friday Shoppers, by Stephanie Rosenbloom
In a sign of consumer desperation amid a bleak economy, the annual rite of retailing known as Black Friday turned chaotic and deadly, as shoppers scrambled for holiday bargains.
A Wal-Mart worker on Long Island, N.Y., died after being trampled by customers who broke through the doors early Friday, and other workers were trampled as they tried to rescue the man. At least four other people, including a woman who was eight months pregnant, were taken to hospitals.
Fights and injuries occurred elsewhere at other stores operated by Wal-Mart, the nation's leading discount chain, which is one of the few retailers thriving in the current economy.
Meanwhile, two men at a crowded Toys "R" Us in Palm Desert, Calif., pulled guns and shot each other to death after women with them brawled, witnesses said. The company released a statement late Friday saying the deaths were related to a personal dispute and not Black Friday shopping.
Many other retailers appeared to have fewer customers than usual the day after Thanksgiving, typically one of the busiest shopping days of the year. Merchants call it Black Friday because in the past, it was when many retailers went into the black, or turned profitable, for the year.
While tussles and even broken bones are common when the doors open on Black Friday, this is apparently the first time someone was killed in the stampede. For some consumer psychologists, the mad scramble was a sign of the times.

This all makes me very sad... Is it THAT important to buy gifts?! Greg and I have decided to simply make our Christmas gifts this year. I don't know if it will save too much money because we need materials to create, but we're determined to make it happen. I guess it's my way of mourning for the people lost. :(

Just when I thought that the weekend couldn't get any better, I was proven wrong again. I had an amazing night of sleep, got up early, had breakfast, read the book for several hours, met up with Veronica, saw Twilight, stopped by Charlotte Russe (new jacket and new shoes), ate at Seau's, drove to Greg's, completed our Christmas song, and watched Newsies. What more could a girl ask for?! :D

Seeing Lauren and getting spend so much time with her today has really been wonderful! We first went out with the boys to dinner and now we are watching Enchanted (after the hours of girl talk!). It as always nice to catch up and share advice about the different things ahead of us. I love having Lauren in my life... we don't have to worry about our embarrassing questions or awkward moments.

It was a truly wonderful day, with wonderful people, and I loved every second of it! My dad even voiced his appreciation for the Thanksgiving decorations and how artistic I have been lately. It warmed my heart to hear it. God has blessed me with SO much and I am so eager to experience all that is still to come! :D

I just can't get enough of these books. Finished the first book at 4am, went to sleep, woke up at 11am, and started reading the second book.

Watched a bunch of HORRIBLE actresses on tv with Greg tonight. It's really hilarious to hear the things that some of them say about the "reality" of their lives. I couldn't believe it really. On the New BFF show, a girl told Paris that she had been cursed with the beauty she possessed and now suffers because of it. Too classic... and yet... so sad. :(

just how many gifts have you?

Hey darling!, originally uploaded by { B a r c a <3.

As it gets closer and closer to the Christmas season, I still remain adamant against my Christmas decorating before Thanksgiving. Even though I love seeing the tree, all the reds and greens, and other trinkets I have collected over the years, it just wouldn't seem right to start the fever before I have spent the day focused on thanking those that have done so much for me. However, I am trying to get ahead with Christmas gifts as best I can!

I might be busting out my Christmas cards and start filling those out so I can send it when it becomes time. I have some gifts for family, plans for other homemade gifts, but I'm stuck with one major problem. Greg. What the heck are you supposed to get a boy (who's not your dad) for Christmas. I've never had to do this before. I have thought about several different things, but everything seems either too much or not enough or just weird (which he might actually appreciate). I guess I better get thinking... He made a poop joke today... I need to top it. :)

I just want to stay inside, watch videos, eat spaghetti-o's, and rest. It's either my medication or the lack of activity that's got me feeling so tired. I really can't stand it. I feel quite useless. Greg and I recorded and sent in our Christmas song last night. It was an exciting endeavor and I'm just hoping my sister and I have the chance to put a song together as well. Now, back to my meaningless existence.

I spent two hours there, just eating and filling out sudoku puzzles. It was really great.

Jon and Amy, originally uploaded by Tracie Taylor Photography.

This stage of life is so crazy... A quarter of your friends single, half of them dating or engaged, and another quarter already married. To me at least, winter is the most romantic season, so make the most of it. If you have a significant someone in your life, make two dates... one that you choose the activities and one that they can choose. You could curl up to a good movie, go ice skating, or read a book together. Those might be silly suggestions to some of you, but that's why YOU'RE planning it and not me.

If you're feeling bogged down by the lovey-dovey romance or just want time away from boys, plan a girls' night (I speak for the womens because I am one... boys, figure it out yourself!). Give plenty of notice to have a better chance of getting those girls there and wear your comfiest pajamas and goofiest slippers. This kind of night calls for silly board games, hot chocolate, and girl talk around munchies at 1am. Whatever you do, make sure you delegate the responsibilities if it ever gets to be too much leading up to it (especially if it's a girls' night), so you aren't consumed by the loose ends and holes in your plan as the night is happening.

For those that take my advice and choose to have a girls' night, don't forget to invite me!! If given enough time, I surely will be able to make it. It's almost finals season, so do keep that in mind as well... all you graduates. :P

Had to write out my life events for the To Become One class that Greg and I are taking. It made me realize just how much of my big life events have happened really recently. A lot of my events happened between the ages of 18 to 22 and it only excites me more about my future. If the major events of my life can grow so rapidly from childhood to now, I can't imagine the things God has in store for the coming years!!

Couple in the rain (Remaster 2), originally uploaded by orangeacid.

I'm tired. My emotions are draining me. First confusion over the election, then the lameness of school. I really look forward to tonight. The plan is to just relax at home with Greg. I need it right about now. I stress out way too easily. God bless.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. [James 1:2-4]

Why are prayers not all answered instantly?
Why don't we always experience the BLESSINGS
that are promised in the Bible IMMEDIATELY?

If all results were instant, we could never walk in faith.
Without faith, we could never please God. [Hebrews 11:6]

If you always reaped the harvest of your deeds immediately,
the incentive to do right and refrain from wrongdoing
would only be selfish.
No faith, or love for God, would be required.

During delays we have opportunity to demonstrate
whether we really love God and trust Him, or not.

A delay is a test. Without testing, there could be no reward.
God does not test us so that we can fail, but so that we can overcome.
He believes we will make it with His help.

We desire an instant manifestation of victory.
God's desire is for us to press into Him and His Word
and walk in faith until we see victory.

To overcome there must be opposition and struggle.
God cannot always shield us from problems
without taking away from us the privilege of overcoming.

Victory is sweet. What makes it sweet is that it is not easy.

If we really trust God, time is not a problem. Leave that with God.
His timing is perfect and He is dependable!
We know He promised, and can never fail -- and that is enough.

My response: I WILL PERSEVERE IN FAITH
because the Bible says I will NOT end up lacking!

In an attempt to feel a bit better about the day, I will again reflect on Halloween events. I found the photos taken at the party and did a little editing, which resulted in this perfect photo (Snow White and black and white Kevin). We had a great time dressing up and I felt pretty bad that Greg was unable to do the grey make-up (do to the last minute announcement that the contest was in only 3 minutes), so I decided that he should be able to remember the costume as it was intended. He looks great!

Anyways, I'm off to get food for Greg, then it's back to work on my 6-page paper for my Special Education class. I have yet to suffer through any difficult paper... I just need to get this dang stuff DONE!!

graduation party in the fridge, originally uploaded by 【Jaz Q6r】.

To be honest, I have been pretty nervous about graduating and the uncertainty of all I would do once I finish. Well, I got the news that I was accepted into the credential program yesterday and today, I found out that I'm in the accelerated credential program. I will be working my butt off during credentials so I can get finished by the end of the summer.

More news: I went to the dermatologist today and found out that I have a cyst on my neck, so I was prescribed new medication and if that doesn't work, I am a candidate for Acutain. I obviously do not have to do it, since there are MAJOR risks, but this might be what I need to be done with it! If I do it, my skin will be completely dry and my muscles will aches on a regular basis, but after 4 to 5 months it's done. Many people only need one treatment and for those who don't they might have two, but that is less common.

Lots of news and lots to decide!
