and let's ketchup.

alright, life is just great. I feel like I could sit here and say "I have been so busy, last thing I do is blog" yada yada YA DA. But, you know that. Whew, glad that is OUT of the WAY. Also, it rained yesterday. Our thirsty grounds finally got something to sip on! It's been a little bit over a month since class started. Some days it feels like there is NO WAY it's been THAT LONG. Other days I can't believe it's ONLY BEEN THAT LONG!?

SO. I am in nursing school. Like, IN NURSING school. I really like it, and I am not even lying. Time consuming? Abosouletly. Rewarding? Absolutely. God has really been teaching me about finding joy, and enjoying the place and time I am in. Whether that means literally, everday, find joy in class, find joy in free time, find joy in being on the couch, etc. OR if it means find joy in college time.  I want to prepare for the future, yes. However, not look SO forward to it that I ruin the moment I am in. He has taught me this just in time for nursing school. I have busy, and I don't mean that lightly, BUSY days. Being able to know that I can find joy (no neccessarily ENJOY, hehe.) in class is SO what I needed for this time of my life. I enjoy being around my friends, and learning alongside each other.

Let's see what else you've missed. OH! Lost my debit card, just in time for Panch to find it. That's okay! I ordered a new one today.  There was a hugo-mugo storm yesterdee, I mentioned earlier. It blew several trees over, like roots-out-of-ground over. God is strong, so strong. My best friend still doesn't live in Belton, still trying to get over that. Surviving, barely. OH my roommmates? They are great, perfect actually. 

OH! My cousin Kayla got married. Hello!!!! WOW, I really haven't blogged in a while. Jake and I road-tripped to Odessa, Tx for the celebration! He's SO great to be around, but even with him, the ride was long. The wedding turned out SO beautiful. I can not except the fact that she's married. It's weird. We were JUST making ooey-gooey mud pies and fighting over who got to wear the big poofy dress to dress up in. She got to wear it this time, but FOR REAL. She was beautiful. I can vividly remember memories from when we were 9 and 10. Now we are 19 and 20, and IT'S BLOWING MY MIND. I am so happy for her, I am SO proud of her. I wish the Turner's the best, and I refuse to change her name in my phone from "Kayla Brown" to "Kayla Turner." That's that.

Nothing else is incredibily new. My baby sister hit a homerun at her last tournament. She's impressive. I miss my family.  Also, right now I am watching football guys walk up to study hall (I am at work.) and judging all of them on their "I'm-too-cool-for-you" struts. (is that even the right word?) It's pretty hilarious. Most of them are going for the "shoulders back head tilted up" look.

Last Sunday I taught sixth grade Sunday School with Jake. Well, mostly Jake taught it and I just interrupted every now and then. He's really wonderful, and amazing with young'ons. The church we attend is really encouraging. Jake said it perfectly the other day "Not many churches get it, but this one does." I love serving with a body that lives biblically, and reaches the community around them. They constantly reach out to us college kids and keep us involved. I am blessed by them, and encouraged to believers love the Father in a REAL way. He's so worth it.

Welp, I feel as if this is the end of my blog. Who knows when the next one will ever come around. Seriously though, stay sassy.

XOXO.
miss you mamoo.
