News

Basically, I started classes this week. I've gone to all of them and I will be finishing the second time around for each class today. I'm excited for what the future holds. I need to get back into the swing of things around campus though because I haven't been doing anything all summer.

I dealt with all kinds of issues with my financial aid and my student status and all of the lovely details that come with starting back to school each fall. Everything is taken care of now but I don't qualify for Work study so now I'm just a general worker--which is fine for now but might not work for next semester or the summer. I haven't talked to work about that yet because I can cross that bridge when I come to it.

I just found out that another friend is getting married, I'm excited for all the friends that are getting hitched--I'm hitting that age where I have to attend weddings or at least send my love if I can't make it.

I don't remember if I said anything about my pastor but he was diagnosed with cancer and he's going through all the tests. Well actually I think he has the results from the tests and he's just waiting to set up the surgery and the following chemo. I'm not looking forward to going through this but I don't think anyone else in the church is either.

Justin's new job is going well. He's already talked to the big wigs and they are happy to have him on the team.

Dad is going back to work hopefully in the next couple weeks if they get all the paperwork around.

that's all for now.

Summer Activities

I have not been feeling very motivated to do wedding planning. I've been a little depressed with how little response I have gotten from the different sites that I was interested in interning with. I have a lot of options in the area however some places I have no desire to work with and I think it would be silly to intern for a site like that. I have also been working hard on trying to get Grandma's house in order. I'll be having a garage sale, in august, to sell almost everything from the house because no one has come to get any of it. (This is not a cheerful task either). I've been busy with other activities for the summer with family. I haven't camped with the parents but Justin and I have been visiting while mom and dad have been camping.

Class time

So lets see. Well nothing too major is going on with me specifically. Pastor Jim is in Ohio or Illinois or someplace like that trying to get some answers as to what he can do about his cancer. Justin is still working lots of hours and will probably be working more hours (like mandatory 7s) when rifle season rolls around. I didn't hunt last year but I think I will try to hunt this year, prices for meat mean that I really should. Sam is still diligently seeking employment at any place possible and her unsuccessful job search is about the only thing keeping me from quitting my job right now. I'm sick from all of the weather changes--yes! I love you Michigan. Anyway hopefully this will not continue for long because I have the Central vs Western rivalry game to go to next weekend. I'm pretty excited for that. Going with Justin and Kyle but Tony and Brian are attending too just not sitting near us. Dad is back to work, I think he's doing pretty well. Mom's birthday is...

To a Sister

i was reading through some of my old writings that I just left on my computer. There is a lot of randomness in there but this one i still feel is worthwhile To a sister; who is willing to share in my secrets.A sister who; shows me so much love that I don’t know what I would ever do without her.A sister who; shares my tears and my fears. A sister who; tells me that my fears are totally irrelevant and don’t matter in the real world. Guess what, I think I finally get what you’ve been telling me all these years, some stuff just doesn’t matter. I have the “turn around” song on my computer and I can see what it’s talking about, it always reminds me of the skit that you did with Katery and the rest of the counselors, I can hardly stand to listen to this song—I cry almost every time. You tell me how it is and you are perfectly okay in your own skin. You know who you are and I look up to you so much for that because at this point it seems like I will never be able to figure out ...
