Once again I've gone a while without blogging....sad day, but I thought since I was up I would just type a lil' something. For the past few days (off and on) I've been reading in the bible about God's love for his sinful people in the book of Hosea. This is different for me because I'm not usually studying out scripture in the Old Testament. Just because to me it seems a more difficult to understand......and there lays the challenge. One sentence that really stuck out to me while I was reading over the bio about Gomer was, "Unfaithfulness damages our integrity but does not prevent someone else from loving us in spite of our failure." WOW!!!! Isn't that eye opening? Love is the key here.....if people mess up it is not our place to judge them, but love them.
Man the things you learn from God's Word. Well I know this is short but that's what's going on. So I think I might try to lay down and rest my eye lids. Until next time my friends! God bless you!!!

It's been a while....but I'm back!!!
Well, like the title states "It's been a while but I'm back" and better than ever. Man it seems like just yesterday I was bloggin' on here. I think it's because the semester kinda flew by but in a way it didn't.....only because so much stuff happened.
I guess I'll just jump right into it....How about that Season Finale of LOST?
Wasn't it stinking awesome? I never would have thought that they would do something like that but they did and that's what makes this show so amazing. So for all you LOST fans we have about 7-8 months to come up with some theories and keep each other updated.
That's all I have for now but until next time A-to-tu-Lou!!!

Well well well!!!
How are you lovely people doing? Well, I'm at a concert right now at the Cafe...one of those screamo concerts. So I decided to come and blog...I just took a quiz about the 5 love languages. Guess what my results were?
#1 - Acts of Service--You prefer to show your love through favors and chores and doing things for others. You feel put-upon and unappreciated when your efforts are taken for granted.
#2 - Gifts--You are moved by presents and physical tokens of affection. It's the fact that someone is thinking about you enough to give you something that moves you. The objects are of secondary importance to the relationship and sentiment with which they were intended.
#3 - Words of Affirmation--You need to hear praise to know you are loved and you may also prefer to express your affection verbally. Negative comments cut right to the bone. You want to hear that you're loved and how much and why.
#4 - Quality Time--This can be expressed either through those intimate tete-a-tete discussions or via doing things together. It's possible to get a low score in this category because you have a strong preference for one form of Quality Time over another.
#5 - Touch--You want to give and/or receive affection physically. This may or may not center around sex.
That's pretty crazy!!! Well if you would like to check it out here's the website:

This thing called brokenness
Hey everyone! How are y'all doing? The semester is almost over and people are on edge...what a great time!!! LOL
Anyways I just started reading this book called A TALE OF THREE KINGS and so far it's really good. It lays this foundation about David then moves into King Saul, the cruel king. There is a question that is put out there: What do you do when spears are being thrown at you? The expected thing is to dodge 'em, pick 'em up, and throw 'em back. But the right answer is to get stabbed to death. Shocking I know, but when you look at it from a spiritual perspective David was being speared for many years (a period of brokenness) to eventually die to himself.
It's mentioned in Chapter 9 that we have our eyes fixed on the wrong King Saul...there is one much worse. God is looking at the King Saul in you. Surprising....we never of it that way but it's true. Once God weeds out all those impurities you are barely recognizable; your personality is totally different. It's a long process for some but the it's all worth it in the end. Well, I have a get back to reading the book...until next time
A-TO-TU-LOU!!!!

First few days of school
Hello everyone! Man it's been while since I last posted a blog entry, sorry about that but school has started and I don't know how I'm gonna keep everyone up to date with everything. I'll find a way don't worry.
It's the first week of school and things are crazy.....first of all before school even started the university dropped all of my classes because financial aid was still reviewing my papers and the day to pay for any tuition payments had passes. So I had to wait until my registration appointment opened up then re-schedule my classes (I didn't get same time, but that's cool), then go back to get my deferment. Now my classes are okay but I'm a lil nervous.
On to another subject: SOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooo last Thursday something amazing happened to me. I've experienced only 2 life-changing events in my life, the 1st one being the decision to become a christian & God radically transforming my heart and the 2nd one is my mom's illness. But now I have another one to add to the list......and this one is very exciting. Are you ready for this?
I AM NOW IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH Jacob D'Avy!!!!!!!!
Some people might be shocked (like the face at the beginning of this sentence) and others are just happy for us. Me and my guy are taking it slow and learning more and more about each other. One of our favorite sayings is "It's funny how things happen!".........it really is. So there's the update and God bless.
