update

wow! it's been a pretty crazy last week or so. i feel like i've accomplished a lot, yet nothing at all. i've spent practically no time reading my Bible, but a lot of time studying. i am super excited for the long weekend-- minimal homework and lots of sleep time! and maybe a puzzle ... and for sure some guitar playing. a LOT of guitar playing. hopefully some writing. and i want to finish let me be a woman by Elisabeth Elliot, and start/finish the case for Christ by Lee Strobel. i kind of wish i was working this weekend, tho- duty would be sooo super easy, i would be able to get a lot done since no one's here, and i would be able to make some money! AND i would be able to go to hillside on sunday- yay for exciting church!! whooops did i write that? eh it's true. oh well. i have an econ exam tomorrow ... yay! [not!] bleh. ooo! i thought of another fun thing about this weekend - first time i am home since i started support raising for project ... i finally get to add up my money and figure out how much i have! def. excited. it hasn't really bothered me because i know the Lord will provide - i really, really believe that he'll provide what i need, but then everyone talks about their totals, etc so then that makes me want to know. also i am assuming i'll be fielding some tough questions from parents, friends, etc on the whole deal. mm. when we spoke about our summer plans @ hillside and asked for prayer support, i was really excited to let people know what i was doing, etc. but talking to non-christian's about it sometimes gets me down because i know they won't TRULY understand where i'm coming from. I have moved from the "yuck this is an obligation to tell them" to "i have this awesome opportunity to share w/them what God's done and doing in my life" but still sometimes i trudge through it. anyway, that's probably about all for the night bc i want to study a bit [ok, cram a LOT] before i go to bed, so i am signing off!
