Home Sick...?

Nope! Wrong answer. I'm Truly sick. My nose is all stuffy, and my throat is dry and scratchy. I have never been sick when I was away from home. It makes me miss home really bad. See, my house is a freezing cold house, and my mom would always take care of me, and if it was "bad enough" I could stay home from school, which I did all the time. Here, it's totally different. It's hot and muggy, which does not make you feel any better; my mom cannot help me; and I can't skip school! It's not a serious enough reason! I can't fail a class because I have a little cold... it just does not fly here. So dang it! Pray I feel better soon, I do not want to feel like this when I come up this weekend!

Classes were really good today. The longer I am here, the better I like my classes (one of the only upsides) I have decided that my Orientation Leaders is the best one out of all of them. She is the one that has told me that I'm clearly meant to be a writer and stuff. Well now she has told me that she loves to read my writing (we write very informal journals to her every Friday) and says that my personality shows through the writing. She uplifts my spirit in so many ways. It's the equivalence to if a very well known pastor walked up to Mark Johnson and told him that he is a wonderful speaker, and deeply moves him, or Natalie Grant walks up to Kara and tells her she needs to write more beautiful music. It is coming from such a high authority figure, that you can't help but smile. =) yay!

I got to talk to Justin today! He called me again this evening since he had no idea that I actually attempted to call him last night. We talked for a good hour which was nice becaus I have not seen him for almost two weeks. A lot happens in that amount of time! OH yah, so to go along wiht my stupidity with life, Justin was asking me questions off this New Testament Bible quiz he was taking. He was like what are the four gospels that speak of Jesus' life? I did say Matthew, but I was VERY unsure.... or like who was the disciple that betrayed Jesus? I said, MARK!...JOHN... and then I realized I was just naming people I knew. Haha. And it was Judas... Justin said it was as common as asking what did Jesus die on? A Cross, The Electric chair, and so forth. Just think you needed to take a bible quiz to get into a good Christian school.... I would never be allowed in. Sad.

So Schony just sent me this wonderful picture! Background of it: It was after prom and we were at the Neis' house for a post party. I get REALLY loopy late at night, and Marlise and I were just goofing around, and I found a hat and a hook for my hand. I thought this was just the funniest thing ever, and was giggling profusely on the ground....here are the results of my "drunken-like" moment: Hee hee yay! I love this picture so much!

My funny moment of the day: So I was riding the bus over to West Campus to see my dearest friend Anna right? And this man gets on the bus, and he has the BIGGEST afro ever! Like I mean you could hide things in there like a kitten or something! It would be lost forever! It reminded me of Marge Simpson on how funny it was. Then I noticed he was just hairy everywhere! I knwo all men have hairy legs, but holy cow! His face was almost taken up by hair! It made me laugh so hard, inside of course... I'm not that mean. That's all... it might be one of those moments you need to actually be there to laugh with me...
