Hey guys, I'm so sorry I haven't been posting a lot lately, I'm just so busy between working and keeping up with my studies. I just wanted to update you on the single life. So far so good! I must say it feels like a relief right now, especially working and doing school, I feel like I don't have time for that right now, or not a solid relationship anyways, i mean don't get me wrong, if the right guy came along and was worth the effort that'd be nice, but I can't think of that until Sepetember right? ;) The nice thing is, I haven't really had the temptation of wanting to be in a relationship, I haven't been asked out on dates or anything. Maybe there is some guys showing interest and I just don't realize it? I haven't been really hanging out with guys though, I've been just sticking with the girls on my floor, and my close girlfriends here, which I think is why I've been staying so strong. That and the support of a great family and a great best friend helps, love you guys :)
Isaiah 53:5 "But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed."
I'm so thankful for a God who heals, especially broken hearts <3.

Incase you're wondering...I survived black monday...or valentines day as most of you called it,I was sick all weekend and slept most of valentines day, so kind of made it like it wasnt there. i did receive two packages from my parents and sisters, theyre the best and it made my day so much better. I couldnt ask for a better family.
Jesus was my valentine this year, thats all I needed,and it was perfect. for all of you who had dates, i sure do hope you had a great day, im sure it was special. I did go to supper with my friend chelsea, it was a good time, were boyfriendless, obviously i am haha, and thats ok, i was fine and made the day great. my prayer is that everyone keeps in mind, we dont need one specific day of the year to tell the people we love, that we love them. so all you single people out there, monday was just a day, you're very loved, and dont let "valentines day" make you forget that.
This year was defiantely different than the last two, not having my boyfriend this year, but I will find a new valentine someday, and it'll be worth it, right? :)

Day 47- Valentine's Day say whaaaaaaaaa???
So Valentine's Day....day after tomorrow, how lovely! I was thinking about this today. First Valentine's Day without my ex, at first I was like awe..sad, then I was like, oh it actually doesn't matter, because all Valentine's is, is getting tons of candy to make you gain weight, and I'm working on losing weight so why hinder my process with a boyfriend? ;) I'm actually doing really well! I do actally have a Valentine's date...haha, with my friend Chelsea, were going out for supper after her night class, being with don't have any boyfriends at the moment, and were both fine with that. We will have a great time, and not even think about our ex's or all the other couples out celebrating. Besides who are we kidding? Valentine's day is so overrated :) I used to say that until I had a boyfriend, then I was all for it, now I'm back to thinking that, and I'm sticking to it! I have all the love I need,a God who is so gracious, great parents, amazing 3 older sisters, 5 neices and nephews, the best friends in the world. So with all this the question is, will I be depressed on "black monday"? The answer is, heckkkkkk no! But for all you love birds, enjoy the day :)

Day 40-Tired
I am honestly tired of thinking about the past. Anyone with me? I just keep dwelling on it, and I don't know why,because I"m moving on and I don't care, but it still bugs me. It's blocking me from having any inspiration, I do apologize, I know my blogs lately haven't been the best. I need to find a spark again for some inspiration, I just feel like i've been busy and I have no time to think! I think I just need to sleep for 48 hours straight and I will be good to go! Refreshed and energized.I wish it were that easy, just to recharge, like a battery.
On another note, my best friend is cheering for the Packers tomorrow to win the superbowl, LAME, I hate the packers, I also hate the steelers, but the Packers are just unacceptable, I'm a Vikings fan, so I can never go for the Packers....I've felt this way my whole life, and now it's even more so because my ex is from Wisconsin and he's a big Packer's fan, so now I defiantely don't want them to win, not that I'm being bitter or anything haha! Just kidding :) But let's just hope they lose!
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he sent his only son, for whoever believes in him, shall not perish but have everlasting life."

Day 37-"The Desert Song"
Verse 1:
This is my prayer in the desert
And all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in the hunger in me
My God is a God who provides
Verse 2:
And this is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved
Of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flames
Chorus:
And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon forged against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
Verse 3:
And this is my prayer in the battle
And triumph is still on it's way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand
Bridge:
All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship
Verse 4:
This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be empited again
The seed I've recieved I will sow
This is one of my favorite worship songs, it's by Hillsong United, if you get a chance, look it up and listen to it, it's beautiful! This is a song I listened to over and over again when me and ex split, it's gotten me through a lot :)

Day 35-Busy lfe
So I realized I haven't blogged since last wednesday! I'm so sorry guys, I've just been so busy! I went home this last weekend, so that's a good excuse! :) I drove the 6 hour drive home on friday (oh wait, it actually turned into 9 hours) but I'll get to that in a minute. I originally was going home to meet my two week old nephew, who is also my Godson, boy is he adorable!!! I only got to spend a day with him, so I really miss hm. Going home also had another meaning, my grandpa. He isn't doing so well, so this was my trip to see him as well. We had a lot of family fly in to see him, he's a strong man, and all I can do is pray he pulls out of this he is loved very much.
On my way home, the reason it took so long, is the fact that I ended up in a ditch for two and a half hours, yeah that probably has something to do with it. I was 23 miles from home, and it was getting icy, so I was drivng very carefully, only going about 30 mph. The car in front of me swerved and spun, I don't know if I hit his tracks on the slushy icy, but all of a sudden I was across the highway going down into the median. Which where I was, was huge, I went down this HUGE hill and landed at the bottom. I was going sideways, and was so scared I was going to flip, the snow was so deep I couldn't even turn my wheel. It was a long process waiting, and getting me out, I even got a $30 dollar citation from the cop for going into the ditch, like it was my fault, I can't control the weather, but it's fine, just annoying to have that a long with a $172 towing fee. But I am very lucky to be alive, if I was going faster it would have been worse, I could be dead. It's God that I'm alive, and my car is fine! So there that is, a true testimony about how God keeps you safe from the unsafe events that happen in your life. Thankfully the drive back to school was much more safe!
Here I am back at school, just got done with a Systematic Theology test that I hope I did well on, I literally studied almost all day yesteday from 1 to midnight, with a few little breaks in between. But I'm determined to be the best student I can be this semester, and to focus on me, I'm actually glad for these 8 months, who has time to date when you're a working student anyways? :)
