total randomness


this is me and my sister, doing the graduation thing and taking pictures at the uga arch (because once you graduate, the arch is fair game :)). it would've been up sooner, but blogger and i were having issues uploading pictures.....
i've spent the last few days contemplating a lot and i'm not sure what i have to show for it. however, i truly love it when God shows Himself in wonderful ways.

i bought a book from barnes and noble that i'm kind of excited to read: max tivoli. there's more to the title, but i can't remember it at the moment. it's about this guy who is born to look like an old man and grows "younger." i think it will be interesting.

tonight i'm going to see a movie that will be wonderfully silly and probably amazing: sisterhood of the traveling pants 2 :) thanks to my friend and former roomie becky, i have read all of the sisterhood books. becky loves them and she had them, so i had access to them and read them. when the first movie came to uga for a preview (gotta love college towns), i went to see it with some friends. it was ridiculous and perfect for a night out with some girlfriends. tonight, i am going to see it with one of the very same girls i saw the first one with, miss hannah redd and also with steph. i am excited. oh, the gloriousness of being a girl :)

i had a pita pizza for lunch today. this is also something from college. my friend anna b and i used to eat them all the time. she'd come down to our apartment (literally downstairs...we lived under her) or i'd go up there and we'd eat pita pizzas. they are terrific little creations. pita. sauce. cheese. maybe some spice. cook. yum :)

that's all. i think i'm going to have some magic shell and watch something equally as girly as sisterhood.

enjoy your day.

His Straight, Not Mine

Whenever I have a huge decision to make, I stress. My default mode is "what if I'm wrong??" This has been true for the last 10+ years of my life. College, mission trips during college, where to teach after college, quitting teaching, moving to Baltimore, leaving Baltimore, beginning seminary. All decisions fraught with questions, doubts, fears. And I'm there again. Graduated from seminary, looking for the next step. Wondering. Doubting. Questioning. Hoping. Dreaming. Fearing.  Every big decision is the same. You'd think I'd have learned by now just to decide or jump or trust or whatever. But no. The reason for this struggle is that I so badly long to do what I am meant to do. I long to follow God where He is leading, to fulfill the purpose He has planned for me from the beginning. But I'm only human. And so how on earth do I know what God has planned for me? And how on earth can I possibly do that without screwing it up completely?  I look at vers...

good for the soul

So, in my last post, I mentioned that I was headed to Atlanta to spend some time with some friends from college and that it would be the first time all of us had been together in about a year. I know I said it would be a surprising day.....and it was. Surprisingly good. The 5 of us have been through a lot together. A whole lot. The good, the bad, and the ugly. But, despite everything that we've experienced together, done to each other, and done with each other (or maybe because of it), the friendships remain. Maybe stronger than they were to begin with. I met 3 of these girls -- Becky, Steph, and Meghan -- freshman year through a mutual friend. They had all gone to high school together. I wasn't thinking that these girls would be such good friends when we met. We started hanging out together all the time. There were several times when we'd be in each other's dorms (along with a few other people) until real early in the morning. Many of my memories of freshman year of co...
