Given me more than I could EVER have wanted

So today is my 28th birthday and so far, no complaints. :) I was in San Diego to visit my grandfather who has the same birthday and on my drive home I was thinking about my life. I guess with it being my birthday it hit me that the last 28 years have been pretty darn good to me. I don't really have a whole lot of complaints, and I started thinking about life and how people are born and that God plans it all.
He plans to whom and where we are born, what life we have. I thought about how He had everyday of the last 28 years planned for me, and how I'm not worthy of that. He gave me an awesome life and how lucky I am that I know it was a gift from Him. I, for I think one of the first times in my life, realized how lucky I was to worship Him. I know my creator, and my Savior and I know and trust that the rest of my life will be blessed, and He will take care of me, come what may. I get to thank Him, because I know it's all because of Him.
I feel sorry for those who don't know God, and can't celebrate their life as a life with Him. I was listening to the David Crowder Band as I was driving, and the song You Alone came on, and it seemed really appropriate for my thoughts today.

You Alone

You are the only one I need
I bow all of me at your feet
I worship You alone

You have given me more than
I could ever have wanted
And I want to give you my heart and my soul

You alone are Father
You alone are Good
You alone are Savior
You alone are God

I'm alive! I'm alive! I'm alive! I'm alive! I'm alive! I'm alive! I'm alive! I'm alive!




Beautiful! Thanks!

What do you want?

Hello!
So I'm in between finals right now, and honestly my last one isn't really a final, it's a short answer question which I already know the answers to, so I'm not worried. That last one though...ugh! This teacher doesn't even ask the question right--so how could I be expected to learn if I don't even know what she's asking. For example (this is a real question on our final):
You work at McDonalds (or another fast food restaurant) and your boss has asked you to write a response to Schlosser's Fast Food Nation. What do you say?

I say..no thanks! I'm glad I have a job and I'm not about to respond to that piece of crap book.

Calm down, I didn't write that. But seriously...that's how you worded that question? And that's one of the 17 you chose? (She had 17 questions that were on the study guide and 5 were on the final of which we had to choose two...) Ok, enough ranting. That class is now over and so I shall not rant about it again.

So if you're keeping count at home that means that I just have this one class in an hour and then finish my paper..ugh! It feels like this semester will never end!!!! Whether I like it or not, it's ending on Monday, so I better get used to that idea.

Confession: I have not purchased ONE Christmas present yet. OMG I don't even have time to think of that. I think I will begin on Saturday when we will be at Target all day. That's right! The Target Christmas Gift Wrap is SATURDAY!!! I'm so excited! One of the best events all year. We go to Target (at the Crossroads shopping center) and we set up outside and we wrap gifts for anyone that wants to for FREE!!! We don't accept donations or tips and we just take the gifts, smile and wrap them. It is so much fun! So if you are in the neighborhood and have some time, you should stop by and get your presents wrapped for free!!!!

I'm not really sure what I'm going to get people for Christmas..what do you want?

Ok well I think that's enough stalling...I'm going to go over my notes for my next class now...

Laters!

It Gives Me ENERGY!!!!

(To the tune of Mr. Grinch)

You're a mean one, Mr. Finals...
You really are a pain!
You're a vicious little test
Of what we should know best
Mr. Finals...

You're a bad one, Mr. Finals.
You keep us up all night
We are trying to remember
All the stuff from last September
Mr. Finals.

You're a vile one, Mr. Finals.
You treat us really bad!
It's bad enough to have one,
But then you pile it on, and on and on....
Mr. Finals...

You are beautiful, Mr. Red Bull
You give me ENERGY!!!
For studying all the facts
So I won't live in a Shack
Mr. Red Bull..

THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO!!!!!!!! (And to you're cousin Espresso TOO!!!)

Ok.. Back to the books.

Classic-shmlastc!!!

So I’m in class today and we’re watching Rebel without a cause and as we were watching it I noticed that Judy’s (Natalie Wood) brother was playing with a gun stat shot actual sparks out of the end of it. ACTUAL SPARKS!!! Last week at Starbucks there was a reacall on a product because if it fell and broke there would be possible sharp edges that a child could cut themselves on.

Seriously, if a cup happened to break and a child happened to be holding the broken cup, it could possibly have sharp edges after breaking and it had to be recalled, but in the 50’s it was ok for a child to have a TOY GUN THAT SHOT SPARKS OUT THE END OF IT!!!!

What has this world come to?

PS—This movie is really stupid. Classic-shmlastc!!! LAME!!! For the soundtrack of way over dramatic music alone, or the close up of Plato crossing his fingiers before they play chicken….LAME!!!!
