For me, the beginning is in the end

Hey guys!

Im back! Its been a while since I've blogged, mostly because I've been busier this semester than I ever have. Recently, I have had decided to make this last semester at State the best one yet by doing everything Ive always wanted to do. I'm making the most of it. We're half way through already! When I look back at all that has happened and look ahead at the future, I get so excited! I am so blessed. So here's a quick update on whats been going on in my life in this final semester.

1) Last week, on wed. I went to a Copeland concert in Carborro, at Cat's Cradle. My first time there, Copeland's final farewell tour, got to meet aaron marsh. Lets just say it was a great day.



2)The following friday, I went with 5 of my closest friends to the beach and stayed in my friend, Sagan's beach house. After a rough week of tests it felt so nice to just chill. Best weekend I have had all semester.

3) The beach weekend included kayaking, random games and movies, fishing..etc.


4) Tuesday, my friends and I went to Blue flame, and I got a NOSE RING. inspired by Sagan lampe, Ted Yap, Bryant Cook, and Beth Moore. I was so nervous at first, but now I'll admit that I love it!



5) This past friday I went to the Oyster Bar dowtown and got oysters, interesting enough. Then, my sister, her spanish roommmate, another friend, and I went out to the cupcake shoppe, and one of my favorite coffee shops, Morning Times, while exploring downtown.

6) On Friday, I also bought a new pair of tennis shoes, which I spent with the money I did not have to pay for parking tickets....which reminds me...

7) In Bible study wednesday night, we were talking about the power of prayer. I said a little prayer before I went in to pay 3 parking tickets, $40 each! Not good. When I walked in the women behing the counter told me that for some reason, unknown to her, all the charges were voided. I owed 0.00. What a great day! God does answer prayers and is so faithful even in the small things.

8) I found 2 wonderful roommmates for next year at UNCW.

9)My good friends from California, Callista, just released their CD this week after about 2 yrs of waiting to hear their new music. Check it out!

10) My parents are moving to California in May, so my plans have been up in the air. Its so exciting to think that I could be moving out there with them in the near future. I want to get a group of friends together and make the drive across country this summer! anyone else wanna join me?

11) I saw my dad for the first time without a mustache. For those of you who know him, this is a BIG DEAL. He hasnt shaved his mustache since college. He shaved it for a benefit event, raising 4,000 for erraticating polio.

12)I'm going to Nashville TN for the first time since i have lived in NC. I've always wanted to go, because i love music. Spring break with the roomies has been long awaited.

12) I learned how to play KISS ME by sixpence none the richer on the ukulele.

13)I made the perfect heart, practicing my latte art at Royal Bean. Its gettin there.

14) I started watching LOST with some friends after 6 seasons, just to see what all the hype was about, and i really like it. Starting at season one. Think i can finish them all by the grand finale? We'll see.

Thats all.

After all that said, God has been fitting together the pieces of my life, giving me direction, and giving me peace. I feel so blessed and at the same time excited about all the opportunities and things that have happened this semester.

What is going on in your life?
