| So-- it's here. The holiday that is hardly a
holiday. I wonder if I will be less skeptical when I have someone to
celebrate it with. I suppose I shouldn't have watched "Gone With The
Wind" that always does something unusual to us females. Owell, I am so
blessed by the abundance of friendship, family, and love that I have
been given. My dear friends loved on me with words of wisdom, laughter,
and intimate conversation that was a sponge for my soul. Probably the
highlight of my day was that my daddy sent me a flower- I love knowing
that someone took that much time and planned ahead to let me know that
I am loved. Sigh. Now I get to spent my night at Kid's Club (my
ministry in the city) where I'm sure I will once again learn that
giving love is much deeper than recieving. I guess my revelation for
the day was in my Educational Psychology when we talked about the
definition of fairness. Fairness is not based on your perception of
fair but rather it is that everyone gets what he or she needs. I serve
a fair and gracious God who knows what I need now and is graciously
supplying it. I will trust that in the future, when I need it, I will
be provided with my "soulmate". Enough of that talk..I'm starting to
sound like those lonely girls that I hate.
Anyway...I guess I need to update a little on my
life...in short it's pretty much the same! School, work on weekends,
and obsession over my neice and nephews. We all had a great Christmas
together and I get to go visit their new house in New York in less than
two weeks! I am really excited for Spring Break this March because I am
going on a missions trip with my school down to Slidell, Louisiana to
help with the Katrina Relief. I am just excited to serve when it is not
required and to leave PA for a while and see other cultures, hardships,
and get a new perspective.
Okay..well, homework time. Thank you to all my
dearest friends who expressed interest in me actually keeping up with
this Xanga. My apologies for my slow response. I want to express in my
deepest regard how much I love and miss you all. I hope today you are
reminded of that!

| HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!! I'm way to excited for break and I just thought
I would start early by saying what I'm thankful for! I'm thankful that
after Thanksgiving I can listen to my Christmas music unashamed, I am
thankful that I can watch Christmas movies all the time now! I'm
thankful that I can have an excuse to go shopping....for Christmas
presents of course, I'm thankful for the Christmas lights that will now
go up, oooh, and I'm thankful for the Christmas decorations I get to
put up this weekend. Have I mentioned I love Christmas time. But, I am
sincerly thankful for all of God's blessings like my family, a great
education, and all of you that are reading this and take an interest in
my life. Happy Holiday...Let me know what you are thankful for!!!!!!!!!

selfish but i don't know what i'll do. i want to be supportive and i am
proud of him but...my best friend is leaving me for 3 years to live in
a dangerous war zone. how can i be happy? the war just got so much more
personal for me. i'm confused, scared, mad, and i can't stop crying...yeah, i'm a drama queen but this feeling is hard to quit.
