The Past Few Weeks and this Weekend

The past few weeks have been incrediby busy with school work and other things. I have been kept very busy with projects and papers fro my Education classes. I really never realized how much work went into being a teacher and what all is required of you. Their are so many requirements that have to be met, just to get into the college of education.

Last weekend I went with the BSU to a conference called Getaway. I had a great time and got to know people a lot better. We went to the Tan Tara Resort in the Lake of the Ozarks area. I was definitely challenged spirtually and was convicted of a lot of things. It was a good conference, but there were some things that went on that I didn't totally agree with in how they were done. It was a great time to just get away and reflect.

Today my parents came and visited me. This was so much fun. We went out to lunch and I got my new car theat they bought about two weeks ago. This was so refreshing to me after an incredibly busy week with a whole lot of homework. I will try to put up some pictures of the car sometime soon.

I am still tyring to figure out what exactly God has called me to do. I have begun going to career counselng in order to help me pin point what I want to do and what God wants me to do. It is hard, but I am trusting that God has a plan for my life and that he is going to reveal that plan to me when it is time. you can be in prayer for me when it comes to this. I will keep you updated on what I decide.

Labor Day Weekend

This weekend has been incredible. I have been staying with my brother and sister-in-law and the three of us have had so much fun. I got here on Friday nigth after riding the train home and hung out with my brother. Then on Saturday, I got to sleep in till noon. For the rest of the day, I hung out with my sister-in-law. We went shopping at the mall, went to Wal-Mart, and cooked dinner together. This was so much fun. We got to have some girl time and get caught up because we haven't seen eachother in a really long time. Then on Saturday night,the three of us hung out and got ice cream. Unfortunately, tomorrow am leaving to go back to school. I am not too excited about this. I think this semester is going to be really hard. I am already having some trouble understanding things in some of my classes. In a lot of ways, I wish I could just be a teacher instead of having to go through all of this school stuff. I think I am just starting to get impatient. I am trying to put together my four year plan and I just feel like it is going to be FOREVER before I get to actually be in a classroom. Another problem is that I am just not motivated to do homework yet. I haven't gotten into my studying routine and I am having some trouble doing this.
