run hard.
What is this? Another post so soon? Could I actually be on top of things? Without classes to go to, or homework to work on, I have more free time than I know what to do with! And I don’t want to turn into a couch potato watching tv and playing on facebook all day. I do so much better when I have a task at hand and a goal to accomplish. So what do I do? I convince my roommates to run a 5k with me....
who do you serve?

Easter weekend.
its good to be back in the good ‘ol city limits of houston, tx this weekend! i miss the city. the hustle and bustle. the options. the buildings. the lights at night. ah! i love it.
but the real reason im back is to be with my family on Easter weekend. home is just so refreshing. living away from home this year has been so very good. Jesus has been so good to me and has shown Himself to be...

after about an hour and a half of watching talentless preteens auto-tune their way through their “official music videos” my brain has sunken to a new low. which doesn’t happen very often, but its the price i pay to know who the next big thing is gonna be..and let me tell you, none of these kids are it.
i am in desperate need of some real music. so, i’m listening to miranda...

first day of school.
okay, first off. 8am’s suck as it is, so why, blinn, would ever even consider a 7:45am class? really? no one likes being up that early, and even more people are barely functional at that time in morning, much less, able to comprehend a spanish three class. RIDICULOUS.
secondly, these book companies are out to get us poor, college students. and i mean “poor” in both sad and...

contemplating life.
don’t you just hate it when life seems to be thrown at you all at once? from every direction? that’s what life feels like right now. and it doesn’t help that i’m slowly owning up to the idea that i am clearly addicted to facebook and twitter and anything else that distracts me from the true essence of life. the Life Giver. Jesus Christ.
i wish that sometimes i could have...

get out.
so, I’m upset. yup, not happy. not happy with our current president, not happy with our current senate and house, and definitely not happy with our foreign politics. yeah, I’m upset that Obama gives “freedom of religion” to Muslims, and defends the plans to build a mosque just a few blocks away from ground zero, but he can’t sign the letters to the Boy Scouts of...
