I'm super excited...I'm going to take an astronomy class with Dr. De Young next semester! Finally, after years of waiting...ok for those of you who weren't aware, I have this crazy infatuation with creation....particularly the night sky...every time I gaze up at a starry night I cannot just help but wonder how anyone in the world could believe for just one moment that all of this just happened...by accident. My goodness just look at the stars! Look at the animals, and the ocean, and the trees....heck even Indiana shows some signs of an intelligent, creative force behind it! And if you really want to be sure of God as the creator...just travel to the rolling hills of N.J. my fair home-land. (sigh) so yes...after years of waiting to include such a class into my hectic music schedule....here it is.

Luke came this past weekend...I miss him.

Its time for my monthly xanga entry...Don't really know what to say....so much is going on in my life....and I'm so overwhelmed by it all. I find that I am in a most awkward time of life....part of me still feels so much like a child. I look back to my childhood and sometimes I ache to be back there...when I had no important decisions to make, with the security of my parents taking care of me. Still another part of me is longing to finally grow up...to begin my life and my career and my marriage. And then there is this other part of me that is just desiring to go do random things...to have no real responsibilites or committments...to just go places...to explore....And so all of these different emotions and thoughts are in a constant battle....and I feel like I am just here...standing still, in this stage of life where both my childhood and adulthood are on both sides, so near and yet so far away.

There are many things about life that I question....things that boggle my mind...for one...

why do clothes always fit differently in the dressing room than at home?

Why are doorhooks on bathroom stalls always missing, and how do they fall off? Why is it always that I choose the stall with a missing doorhook and consequently have to put my purse on the ground, sometimes on top of the tioletpaper dispenser....but that can be risky..

Why do I always assemble a killer outfit on a day when I have no where to go? Sometimes I'll save the outfit for another day, but then it doesn't look good anymore. Why is that?

there are plenty more intense questions where that came from....but I'm sure that I've got you in deep contemplation as it is....

my most recent favorite quote:

"you are the babest babe in babeland" ---Luke Humberd

man after that mexican polka dancing last night all I wanna do is dance...I'll have to get some of those sweet tunes so I can break it down in my dorm room....if any of you have any recommendations of some good mexican dance music...let Bethany Thornton or I know....because we are planning a crazy Kent dance party

Adios!

hey all 2 of you who probably might read this....I haven't written in forever....

I'm happy to say that I am thoroughly enjoying Kent life....my roomates rock my world...

I did not get to sleep until around 4 oclock this morning due to work, along with some other interesting circumstances....so now I am just sitting around, thinking of every other thing I could possibly do besides practice piano or studying....

well I'm engaged but thats obviously old news now....yesterday I stabbed through the paper lid of my vitamins, with my ring, that was an awesome feeling.

Some recent quotes of interest:

"my body is an aerobic machine" (Neil Butler)

"That looks really good.." (Jodi referring to the movie) "yeah they are good...kids ate them at the day care..." (me referring to peanut-butter and jelly uncrustables..)

"my mom became her career as a tea-toddler.." (I thought it just meant someone who really likes tea.)

OK so you had to be there for most of them...

Its been a month since I've seen Luke....sniff sniff

Tonight I'm going to the latina festival!! Celli is going to teach us to salsa!

Ok this was a random post, but thats the way I function....Love you all!
