I didn't...I will

Today was so good.  I didn't think so while it was happening but everything really worked out. I   woke up late, but got all the sleep I needed.  I didn't do homework this morning like I planned but I got all of my space cleared and organized and set.  I didn't get my book from the library that I wanted, but I DID get to read most of it and I chose a new monologue from it that I like even better.  I didn't make it to my jazz class, but I did make it to the later one.  I still didn't get all my homework done tonight, but i did get to spend time with friends that needed to be spent, and a large appointment got cancelled for tomorrow that will give me time to do it then- and buy groceries.  After being so worried about how today was going to go yesterday, I realize how today went and think- I shouldn't worry about tomorrow so much.  When I do my best and trust that the Lord will help me do what needs to be done, I can just trust that the day will work out and everything will be worthwhile...that's what happened today.  It WAS all worthwhile.  Tomorrow, instead of worrying I will enjoy each moment, trusting that my effort will not be wasted, that the world will go on as beautiful as the day before, and that all the things that really matter won't be hurt by one event during one day. All the things that really matter are eternal.  I didn't realize that today, but TOMORROW....I will :).

Anything really great happen to you today that you DIDN'T think about before? 

So EMBARRASSING!!!!

I just had the most amazing laugh attack!! SO I was sitting with my good friend Rob in the hallway and we were just chatting about nothing.  And by the by he ended up doing a great impersonation of a squirrel (don't ask) and we started laughing. I totally full on FARTed, right in front of my good friend Rob...HOW EMBARASSING! Right? Isn't that like the most embarassing thing you could do? Well, it was pretty embarrassing but LUCKILY me and (my good friend) Rob are close enough that it was not a hinderance to our friendship but rather one of the greatest bouts of laughter I've had in a looonnng time.  In fact I'm still laughing about it ... inside....still. 

So the POINT is that, every embarrassing moment can be A) really embarrassing or B) REALLY funny.  I choose funny.  Have you ever had an embarrassing moment be wonderful? Comment on my blog- I LOVE comments. Really. 

And Rob- you can just shut up.

Embryo

So sometimes I'm not very good at using up all the food I buy.  My roommates make fun of me (strike 2 on the roommates- see "mooch" entry) because I have a lot of food go bad before I've used it and I have to throw it away. OR they get MAD when I stink things up (ex: rotten chicken smell=  combination fish, fart, and laundry - IF you try to cover the smell with air freshener.  Their anger is justified,  but Katie and I thought it was hilARious.)

Anyway the POINT of my story is that, due to my inefficient consumption capabilities, I came back from winter break and found that one of my onions had a small green spike-ish sprout protruding from one corner.  WOW- I did NOT KNOW that onions could do that.  I was intrigued and decided to let the sprout grow.  And much to my pleasure and delight my onion has sprouted 14 tough little green stalks. Isn't that COOL!? Every thing that sprout needs to grow is already inside it.  I haven't watered it or put in soil or ANYthing. no nurturement what so ever.  God is amazing.  I love him.

apology

I'm really sorry about my last post- it wasn't very nice

People

People are DUMB. I mean I love people and I do my best to treat em good.  But sometimes, people are just rude. Serious.  They don't think about what they say before they say it.  And they think they know everything about you before they've talked to you about ANYthing.  And you try to do all this nice stuff for them, to show them you love them, and you really DO love them- but then they'll just throw it your face and say- 'you're fake- we only like people who are dramatic and pissy.'  

Sorry, - I wasn't thinking much about that while I wrote it- but I still think it's true. . . mostly
