Pseudoscience.

Why are gloomy, drizzly days so perfect? There is something comforting about seeing the world in grey. It makes me believe it is perfectly normal to wear fuzzy socks and stare out windows and listen to the Goo Goo Dolls and do hours of mindless soul searching and read a novel all at the same time. Okay, enough of being emo, but you can't blame me for loving calm in the midst of calamity.

I think God is telling me that I have fallen too far into the depths of this world. My life is pretty monotonous, wonderful.. but monotonous. The predictability of every week is killing my brain cells. I think a good day of adventure would be beneficial to my mental health. As much as I love school and my routine-- I need to see the world from different angles, ya know? Any suggestions?

Do you guys have any particular thing that never ceases to melt you heart? For most people it is puppies or babies or something adorable and cuddly but for me, it is kind of different. For me, it truly warms my heart to see football players help up other football players not on their team. I believe pretty strongly in the idea of serving others in ways big and small, and to me, this is such a wonderful way to serve God! It takes a true man to help an opposing team mate. I-love-it.

Be good to yourself!

My First Post!

Have you ever been taken aback by the feeling of overwhelming gratitude for who you are, where you are, and everything around you? That is kind of how I have been feeling for quite some time now. Although my life is stressful and crazy and hectic and grueling and often times monotonous, I can not express how in love I am with my life! God is so dense and present in our lives but all too often we are stuck in our earthly ways to notice His goodness. God's plan for all of our lives is extravagant and perfect-- ten years ago He knew I would be here at OSU loving life, and ten years from right now-- he knows where I'll be as well. It is important for us to remember that where we are at this exact moment is where God has planned for us to be. It is fun to dream about the future and reminisce on the past-- but more importantly be joyful for where we are now! So, I guess I can take some time to reflect where I am now in my life.

I wake up every morning and am blessed to go to the BEST school in the world, Oklahoma State. My life consists of school and only school, literally. Most people think that college is all about partying and hanging out with your friends but for me it is quite the opposite-- come Friday night all I wanna do is relax! I have the coolest, funniest, sweetest, most honorable boyfriend named Matthew who is my rock and my sanity, and not to mention my best friend in the world. I have a great group of friends, my COV group, who keep me accountable and love on me alot. Although my family is back home, I try to call them everyday and am able to catch up. I am a SOON TO BE AUNT-- Chase Randall will be born in MARCH :) I still get to see my precious other family, Madision, Brock, and Beckham as much as possible and if I'm lucky, I'll get a picture sent every now and then ;) Crystal Lite, My iPhone, and something to study-- and I'll be okay. Isn't God wonderful?

Give Glory to God in everything you do, have a pure heart, and give more than you take.
