So much has happened in this past month so I'm just going to hit the highlights. I have neglected my blog too much, for sure. But it's not entirely my fault.
I had a fresh, new post, ready to jo, two weeks ago but it refused to be published. Quite irritating.
Speaking of irritating, I'm super irritated. Because of this, we are going to start this post off with the stupidest First-World-Problems-Rant of the year. It's probably not "of the year" worthy, but I just want to openly say that I already know this is petty before anyone else thinks it.
Irritated.
First, my laptop battery won't hold a charge.
Then Blogger won't let me post anything.
So I get a new battery and my charge cord breaks.
Facebook won't notify me when I have a message from Erik.
Skype won't let me see him (it's not like he's in Germany or anything).
Get the new charge cord. Of course it stops working after one use.
P.s my computer crashed right after I finished that last sentence.
Agh...

Spring Break Recap-
▶Truck camping with puppy dog and one of my best friends out in the middle of the desert. So stinkin' fun!
▶ Catching up with awesome people who have influenced my life in so many ways.
▶ Helping the ladies and gents from my old youth group prepare their fine arts pieces. Watched them perform at the competition. Decided to stay a theatre major because I'm a performance addict. God's doing, not mine.

San Antonio Trip-
▶ Quality time with momma (spending 15 million hours in a car with someone will typically have that effect).
▶ Got to spend time with my grandma. Even though she doesn't remember who I am, due to dementia, it was great to see her doing so well. The last time I saw her she could hardly talk and this time she could hold a 15 second conversation! Truly amazing.
▶ Erik and I were able to spend a couple hours together on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evening. On Thursday he was promoted after lunch and we spent the rest of day together. We didn't do anything we had planned for our anniversary but I think sitting in the park with my head on his shoulder, talking about life, was better than going to some fancy restaurant. He graduated that Friday and we said goodbye later that night.That was pretty awful. Super awful actually. But now we have some more wonderful memories and more waiting to come.
On the way back to school (if you count Oklahoma being "on the way"), my mom and I stopped by to see a dear, dear friend of mine in texas and one of my sisters and her family in OKC.

April Fools-
Erik and I pretended to break up. Facebook official and everything. Let's just say... I'm still apologizing to my friends and family for such a cruel joke. (It was so worth it though)

Last weekend I went on a Spring Retreat with my college group- wonderful get-a-way in the mountains to have some quality time with Jesus and friends.
So now I'm left with roughly three weeks of school and a super exciting summer plan waiting to be executed.
You are now reading the blog of a Student Ministry Summer Intern!
Ahhhhh!!
So, so, so, so excited.
Learning the ropes of working with youth, growing spiritually, loving life, living for God. I wouldn't want to spend my summer any other way. I've already started brainstorming all sorts of fun ideas for the summer. I can't WAIT. Agh. So excited. God is so good, I have been praying for Him to bring me to a place of major growth, but didn't actually think that such a concrete opportunity would arise. He always seems to sweep me off my feet.
Well, I'm home for the weekend now and, boy, am I in for a laundry/home work packed couple of days.
Wish me luck.
Sleep well all!
"No wonder my heart is glad, and I rejoice.
My body rests in safety."
My body rests in safety."
Psalm 16:9
ROFL, that is mean, I approve!!! I grant thy the highest of high fives!!!!!
