Crazy day today 2/15/05 The snow came down like never before and I had a heck of a time walking to class. My feet got socked! I saw the funniest thing ever, a girl walking through the snow with an umbrella! |

Imagine this 2/14/05 This is me, each step lifiting me off the cement sidewalk, cracks felt with each foot fall, I rise and then fall and I breathe and then rise. The sun finally came out right when I reached the edge of campus, the intersection of my world and the rest of this university's student body. Like the crook of an elbow. The sun lies of Spring and thus the wind plays with my hair, blowing it in my eyes which I don't brush away. All at once I can hear the words of two guys walking behind me: "Dude, she pregnant?" "No dude!" Laughter. "I was just kidding dude." "...you know, mother nature, father time." Now I'm almost to class, I can feel the holes in my shoes as the cold seeps in. I pass the giant pine that smells of sap. Two different student walk behind me know, "...that's just how the church works!" Laughter.

How I study 2/13/04 I drink hot mocha while I stare intently at little print in books with publishing dates older than me. I scribble in the margins with notes and random thoughts. Such books always make me think, think thoughts I haven't thought before, yet at the same time I see that I'm still not big enough to get it all, there is still stuff there I don't understand. Bugger.
Bekah graced my cup with the following saying, "Meow Meow! (i.e. Jenny Rocks!)" What more could I ask for in a friend? |

A Stolen Quote 2/11/04 "To love anyone is to hope in him always. From the moment at which we begin to judge anyone, to limit our confidence in him, from the moment we identify [pigeonhole] him, and so reduce him to that, we cease to love him, and he ceases to be able to become better. We must dare to love in a world that does not know how to love." Now to let this sit in my heart and my head til it sinks in and I become daring. |

A mocha like morning 2/10/04 I made it to the cafe this morning for a mocha, scone and some scheduling. Aka, list making. List can be so overwhelming sometimes. I see all the stuff I need to get done and just feel the need to throw my hands in the air and give in! But I will resist for now. Instead I'll think of how in about twenty minutes I'll be sitting in my favorite class (cultural sociology) with my favorite professor (I just bought his book and am wondering if I should get him to autograph it, brown nosing? bwaahahaha!.....yeeeeah). After which I will have to sit through a boring lecture in my Scriptures as Literature class (sounds cool right? But she doesn't know what she's doing *sighs*). After class I'll tackle the list. The Huge, Long, Obnoxious List. And I shall get it done dammit. |
