Recharging my batteries
Posted at 8:11 am | Filed Under Jesus, SAT, School
Well as another week begins, I’m feeling pretty refreshed. Or at least ready for this week, which probably means that I’m not, but I’m going to believe that anyway. I went to youth group on Friday and really connected with a friend from school…she is from Sarah’s youth group originally, but because they only meet [...]

And So It Goes
Posted at 8:30 am | Filed Under Church, Jesus, School
Well it’s been a very productive weekend (don’t you just love those?): I woke up early Saturday morning to get some quality IB research/work time in at the library, a good three hours. These awful World Lit papers which are a burden to do, but at the same time I want to see how mine [...]

A Sweet Sweet Sound
Posted at 10:26 am | Filed Under Family, Jesus
Well seeing as how it is summer, I just had to sleep in yesterday. So I woke up at around 2 pm. Yes, it was awesome. But there was no sleeping in today, because Emily and Hannah both desired to be woken up early. It is the last day of school after all. There are [...]

Last night Emily and I went to this fundraiser for the Burma Cyclone Relief…it was put on by some of the leaders at youth group…but a few people from our church went as well. Emily really wanted to go (I think to take a break from gymnastics but also because she’s like in love with [...]

I’m Baaackk!!!
Posted at 7:17 am | Filed Under Friends, Jesus, School
We got in at around 5:30 yesterday morning…there were lots of suggestions to get the dreaded Stage Band practice over with at that point (we have practice this morning…brutal)…I believe that we must have stumbled off the bus and looked rather dreary…but that it for the parents to tell.
Anyway…Ottawa was amazing! It was such [...]

Do I Sing or Do I Thud?
Posted at 10:14 am | Filed Under Jesus, Youth Group
Whoa…long time no see…life’s been a little crazy lately, as Mommy reported, and in my defense, I had no easily accessible internet. That being said, it’s nice to be back (like David Cook on Idol, woot woot, although I didn’t think he was truly gone)
When I planned to blog on Monday, I planned [...]

Taste of India
Posted at 9:18 am | Filed Under Jesus, School
Well it’s hard to believe that there is anything even worth blogging about today after the mass blogging that went on yesterday…but the show must go on.
Last night I volunteered at my school at the Taste of India Night (just one component of the week long celebration of diversity). I was a waitress…Mrs Jones [...]

Mum’s the Word
Posted at 10:27 am | Filed Under Jesus
So you know how on TV, there are ladies who walk around seeing babies everywhere…they see pregnant people, baby food commercials, baby stores, clouds shaped like bottles…then they finally decide to take a test, because they think all those things are signs? Or in the show Friends, Monica and Chandler see all these signs to [...]

Happy Medium
Posted at 8:14 am | Filed Under Jesus, School
I watched the Session 1 of the Believing God Bible Study with Mommy and partly with Jenni too. It was really interesting and I learned some stuff and I’m hoping that some of it be usable in the next few days.
Exams start really soon…we’re getting our take home English Exam Essay on Friday, so [...]
