| Have you ever wondered where your passion came from? What drove you to desire the most insane things? What if you never made it there?
It's been a nice week. I'm falling more and more in love with Ole Miss and Oxford. I never want to leave this place. It's the most wonderful place on Earth, from standing in lines at Walmart just to hear an old friends "hello" from behind you, to cooking breakfast for 15 friends on a Saturday morning. I'm blessed in so many ways. It seems as if I was just picked up and placed in the most wonderful life. Micah and I have been hanging out a lot. We've been going to Crusade, Dance class, Basketball games, etc and just hanging out together. We are starting a Bible study for girl athletes this week. We talked about it while running on the trails on Thursday.
Golf is going well. I'm hitting it better than I ever have, I just need to learn to play the back and putt. I'm looking forward to the spring :).
So, I'm over him now. Confusing, yes. But that's part of the male sex, bless their heart. After much thought and talking with Micah, I'm not worried or anxious. I look at it as, God is preparing me and God is preparing him so that when the time comes, we will both be ready for each other. It's amazing how God works.
On another note, I'm considering entering the Iron Chef America series. I mean, after college of course. This morning I cooked a big breaktfast for 15-20 people that came over to our apartment today. It was an a breakfast buffet, eggs, bacon, muffins, biscuits, donuts, cinnamon rolls etc. We are going to call it the Campus Creek Breakfast Club. From now on we are going to have a big breakfast every Saturday morning. Everyone is going to bring something and we're going to cook it all.
Well, Micah just got off the phone haha, I can't wait to hear hahaha. | | |
| So, I should be studying. It's1:47am and I have 3 hours of class tomorrow, a test, qualifying, tutor, yoga etc. But I need to write I really just need to write. Have you ever just wanted to break down and cry. I don't really know why I want to cry, well I kind of sort of know, but it's silly. I'm just confused. I don't know what I did or where I went wrong or what messages I sent or didn't send. I know it will all work out and that God is in complete control (thank goodness!)
A recap of this past weekend: Micah and I hung out. We cooked, hung out at Will's, played lots of air hockey haha, laughed, shopped, walked the square, drove around, laughed, stayed up telling stories etc. On Sunday we went to First Baptist of Oxford. We then ran into Tristen and Kyle, along with Ashley and Chelsea, so we all walked to Old Venice and ate. Tristen, Kyle, Micah, and me ended up standing out in the parking lot laughing and talking until two. Tristen invited Micah and me to Manatia Tau (play on words, sp ???) Micah and I went to a Superbowl party at David's. Barnabas, Craig, Tristen, Jennifer, David, and Blair and me hung out watching the game which ended up with the Steelers winning :( but also ended with a food fight involving pigs in a blanket hahahahahaha good times. I wanted the Seahawks to win simply because the Colts beat them and Chris Spencer plays for them. We all had so much fun that night. We played Mario Kart and taught Barnabas how to play. It was his first video game to ever play, I mean come on, he is from Kenya.
Monday was a blur. I had class at 9, 10, 11 and then practice from 1:30 until 4:30, which was f-r-e-e-z-i-n-g!!! I then had a 9 chapter test and class at 5:30, which didn't end until 8:45. I broke a thermometer because I didn't know you don't stick hot things into cold water (sigh, I'm learning). I also had a slight problem attempting to boil oil.
Today, I had workouts at 6:30am, class at 8 which was short. I made my way to Micah's, where I woke her up and talked to her for awhile. I then went and studied, where I fell asleep to The View haha. I then took Micah to my dorm to find a dress for tonight. I then dropped her off at class and then I picked up lunch and headed to practice. After practice Micah and I put outfits together and came up with the best one for each of us. Tristen picked us up and we went to Applebees. We then went to a party at Campus Creek and then played some intense games of air hockey haha. We then went to the Library where some random drunk guy kept hitting on me and dancing with me. Afterwards we went to Sonic and got Sonic Blast and then went back to Micah's and talked for awhile. It was fun and I needed it to get stuff off my mind, even if it didn't really work.
Tomorrow is going to be busy and full. 9, 10, 11, qualifying at 12:30, yoga at 5, tutor at 6. Reid's birthday is coming up, February 23. He would be turning 17. I don't understand why things happen. I feel so selfish at times wishing he was here, but I know he is happier and having a blast.
I'm in desperate need of a good long run. I need something that can clear my mind and get me on a new street. I can't dwell on the past. Everything works out for a reason. | | |
| So today I woke up for morning workouts at IPF where I ran sprints for 20 minutes and then did the eleptical. I then went to marketing where I took an impossible test. My dad then picked me up and we went and played golf. I then went to UGC and hit with Kyle and Brice. I then went for a 3 mile run. Micah and I went to eat at the Chi O house and then went to the basketball game with Devin and Barnabas. Barnabas is from Kenya and is on the track team. He is about 5 feet tall and weighs 100lbs. He runs a mile in a little over 4 minutes . . . yeah. He is so cute haha. He told me that if I was in Kenya and a man wanted to marry me I would be worth 30 cows hahahahaha. Micah and I then went to Uptown and got apple cider. Oh btw we lost to Florida too :( But on another note, my brother ran the 1/2 mile for the first time in 2:23 and he tied the fastest kid in the school and Ryan didn't run if full blast!!!!!!!! I was so proud of him :) Anyway off to bed night | | |

Do you have a Bandaid? Because I just scraped my knee falling for you.
There must be something wrong with my eyes, I can't take them off you.
Girl, you better have a license, cuz you are driving me crazy!
Hey baby, you've got something on your butt: my eyes.
Hi, I make more money than you can spend.
I hope you know CPR, because you take my breath away.
Damn, if being sexy was a crime, you'd be guilty as charged!
I must be in heaven because I'm standing next to you!
If I could rearrange the alphabet, I'd put U and I together.
You must be from out of space cause I can see the stars in your eyes.
If you were a booger I'd pick you first.
Can I have directions? ["To where?"] To your heart.
Baby did you fart, 'cause you blow me away!
Hi, I'm Mr. Right. Someone said you were looking for me.
Turn to the girl sitting next to you at the bar and say...
"I'm not really this tall....I'm sitting on my wallet."
Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again?
When I saw you from across the room, I passed out cold and hit my head on
the floor...so I'm going to need your name and number for insurance reasons.
You know what? Your eyes are the same color as my Porsche.
Do you have a map? Because I just keep getting lost in your eyes!
Is there an airport nearby or is that my heart taking off?
Do you have any raisins? No? How about a date?

| So I'm at Micah's for the weekend. I just need a break. She is at the FCA retreat, so I'm just hanging out at her place by myself. I played with JJ, Clarke, Dave, and David today. The sunset was absolutely amazing!!! Clarke and I came to the conclusion that we would take up photography later haha. We then went to Two Stick where we ordered 7 rolls, fried rice, salads, etc and we all just ate off each other. David and JJ didn't like sushi so they got other stuff and we ate theirs to haha. We all sat on the pillows and Clarke had the idea to take off our shoes so we could have a "real Japanese experience" haha so we did. 11 glasses of water later we left. I went to Walmart and bought stuff to cook. I baked a chocolate chess pie, chocolate chip cookies from scratch, and brownies from scratch. Tomorrow I'm baking more cookies and a French cinnamon vanilla apple cobbler ( . . . yeah). On a funny note, I went through my phonebook calling people to explain to me how to open a can of evaporated milk . . . exactly. Will was trying to explain it, but he was a little intoxicated haha. Matthew came over and helped . . . it was that bad. So we made cookies and talked about life and stuff, the usual. Dillon should have been there (cough cough) but he was in Jackson getting a free bottle of wine haha. Well, then I talked to Alice for sometime and facebooked . . . pathetic I know, but dang there are some hot guys in my classes this semester (maybe it's because I don't know them all haha). I didn't run today because I've been sick, well I ran 3 miles this morning at IPF, but that doesn't count imo, it was indoors and too early to burn calories. Well I'm wiped out and I'm getting up early in the morning to go play, maybe Terry will be out there. I miss him. There are somethings I just don't understand (sigh, few tears) Why him? What has he done? I don't mean to question God, but at the same time I can't help but wonder why? I breaks my heart everytime I think about it. All I can do is pray. . . . . . night | | |
