Sunshine and Clouds.

Sunshine.
I am in Fort Worth visiting one of my best friends.
Last night, we went to see the Dallas Mavericks play the Boston Celtics.
It was such a good game!!

I submitted all the paperwork for an internship next school year.
I am praying for one in Austin.
Lord willing, I get it and am able to secure housing for the 9 months I'll be there.

It's almost Easter Sunday!!!
And I love love love Easter Sunday.

I am alive and breathing.
Thank you, Jesus.

Clouds.
School is school.
I'm ready for my summer break already.
Just 6 more weeks left!

I am currently freezing my butt off.
Spring came and so did the cold weather.
Yikes. #FirstWorldProblems

My legs are so sore.
I started a Fit Camp on Monday that kicked my butt.
I've got 3 more weeks of it left.
It's tough but I'm so happy that I'm pushing myself and getting in shape.

Spring Break 2013

Sadly, I am coming to the close of my spring break for this year.

I've been working full-time since I was 17 so I haven't had a spring break since high school...(I graduated in 2006). I love the freedom of spring breaks and winter breaks. It's pretty amazing.

So if you're in school now...appreciate it. Do something fun. Sleep in every morning and stay up late. Because there will come a day when you don't get the luxury of a week off from school...I guess unless you work in a school lol.

This week I went to San Antonio to visit my family and now I'm in Las Cruces, NM visiting my baby sister! Sooo not looking forward to heading back to Abilene :/

Well I'm off to try a new Mexican restaurant! Hope all is well with you lovely people!

When your past comes a-knocking.

Lately, my past has come a-knocking. And by past, I mean a certain someone...(that phrase just sounds so much cooler). It's crazy how when you finally let someone go; they come sneaking back into your life...I don't know how they reappear in your life...but in mine it's usually with a "Hey! How ya doing?!" text and then a photo a couple days later, "Hey, this made me think of you."...and so on and so on.

And gosh. I don't know whether to be annoyed (that the one that told me goodbye is now trying to say hello) or flattered (that the one that told me goodbye just couldn't stay away) when it happens.

So I guess I am a little of both. Annoyed that he expects me to fall over his feet like all the rest do. Flattered that he couldn't forget about me like I'm sure he thought he would.

But don't worry. I have yet to let my guard down. I don't believe that he has changed. And if by some miracle, he has...he has a lot of proving to do before anything ever happens.

So right now, it's nothing. and it might stay nothing. But it's interesting to see how live comes full circle at times.

Lord, your will not mine.
Let my heart remain in your hands,
 until the time when you see fit for that to change.
Let me be patient and wait on your perfect plan.
Amen.
