I feel like so much has happened since Thursday. Friday morning was the poverty breakfast. I got up at 5 AM which was a little rough. We got there and started making breakfast and/or visiting with people who were there. I sat down at a table and talked with a couple of guys. Then this other guy came over who was a lot more talkative than the other two. We talked about a lot of things and I found out he is from Buffalo. He told me about the garment district in New York where you could buy things for really cheap. He says, "you like to shop, right? You're pretty, so that means you like to shop, right?" I told him I do like to shop and he said, "well I guess I am stereotyping you" and I said, yea, but its true. He was funny. After the breakfast I came back home for a bit and then started some laundry and ran a couple errands. I got back and finished laundry and put it all up and then cleaned the rest of my room. By 11 when I went to class, I felt like it was 2 and that I had accomplished so much already. My 12:00 class was just a quiz, so I came back and took a nap before I had to pick the boys up from school. Friday night I went to a concert at Baylor. Jon McLaughlin and Matt Wertz played. It was really good. Jon plays piano REALLY well. I was amazed by how fast his fingers were going. He didn't have anyone else with him, so it was just him singing and playing the piano. I have his cd and I wish it was just him and the piano also. I loved it. I leaned over to Deidre and told her that I bet he does a mean Carol of the Bells.
Saturday morning I went to a volunteer orientation at Talitha Koum. It is a non profit childcare center, but they don't call it that. They call it some sort of therapy center. It is a really neat place and I am excited about volunteering there. They take care of kids in the neighborhood that are living in poverty. It reminds me of Graffiti in some ways, but there are different aspects to it that Graffiti doesn't have and Talitha Koum doesn't have some things that Graffiti offers. After that I went to sing practice and then came home to work on school stuff. I didn't get much done and then I took a nap because I was still tired from Friday. Then my phone rang and I went in to cater early than planned. I worked a catering until 11 and came home and crashed. That night my arms hurt so bad. We had been carrying trays of food or other things all night. I would wake up in the middle of the night and my arms were aching so bad. It was a different kind of sore. It felt like all my arm muscles were flexed constantly. I couldn't relax them at all.
Sunday I went to church and then to work for a little bit, until I had sing practice again. We had our stage time and then had an hour and a half off before we had to come back and practice our singing. Then we had big sis rev, where all the tri delt families find out who the new members to their family are. Then we went out to dinner and I came back home to finish the homework that I had hardly started. I had 2 short papers to write, so I got that done and went to sleep.
Yesterday I had class as usual. After class I went to meeting and then sing practice later that night. Yesterday and today I have been trying to get all my homework done so that I can get ahead for next week. Danielle will come Friday and stay until Tuesday, so I don't want to have to worry about homework while she's here. So far I have impressed myself. Today I finished all my stuff for tomorrow and started my stuff for Thursday and I am almost done! Tomorrow I will hopefully finish everything for Monday and maybe even start on Tuesdays! This is so nice and my to do list is a lot smaller. I don't feel as stressed either. It is almost like a competition against myself. Hopefully this motivation will last for awhile! I am so accomplished!
Last night I booked my flight to New York! There was another flight added on the Friday I am leaving, so I will get there at around 7:30 instead of 11. My returning flight is still leaving at 6:30 AM which I am not excited about, but oh well.
Today at community group we did a spiritual gifts assessment. I always enjoy doing those. This time my highest was helps and second place was a tie with administration and service. I wasn't very surprised, but one thing that was different from the last time I took one was administration. That is something that I am realizing I enjoy a lot more than I thought.
I am really thankful this week isn't as crazy as last week was. Especially after this weekend, I needed a slower week. I am glad I am taking full advantage of it as well!

busy life
Today has been another busy day. I had class at 9:30, came home for a lunch break, and had class at 12:30 and 2. I picked up the boys after class and was there until 5:30 or so. I came home for a little bit and made a quick dinner. Then I had sing until 9 and luckily a mixer was cancelled, so I got to come home early.
This morning I walked outside and the nasty chicken had been ripped out of the trash bag, and then ripped out of the bag containing the chicken. Then each chicken breast was individually packaged and I think something got into some of those too. I think whatever ate that is dead somewhere now. The smell haunted me once again when I was walking back inside after class. I gagged again and tried to forget that awful awful experience.
In my first class this morning we were talking about the game last night and how great it was. Then at the end of class my professor initiated a sic em and the class participated in a sic em bears! I am not one of those who does a sic em for everything, so I did not participate, but I thought it was funny. I had never seen a sic em done in class.
Yesterday I brought Melanie with me to pick up the boys because she might pick them up on Mondays because I have class. Today Andrew asked me if she was going to be their babysitter, so I said that she might. He asked me if she liked them and I told him that I didn't ask, but I think she did. Andrew said, "good, I liked her. She's nice. Like you." I was glad to hear that they still think of me as nice, regardless of how much they get in trouble with me.
Tomorrow morning my poverty in Waco class is making breakfast for this homeless breakfast Mission Waco does every Friday. We have to be there at 6AM!!! Once I get over the fact that I have to get up at 5, I am excited about it and I think it will be a good experience! With that said, I am going to bed now. :)

The Smell
So here is a good story. It would be better if you could have seen it happen and the reactions. I will try to explain it as well as possible.
The past few days Deidre and I have noticed a smell in the kitchen. This is normal because our kitchen is always disgusting and we have weird smells all the time. But this one was bad. It only came around occasionally. Since we are hardly home at the same time, we didn't discuss this until tonight. She asked me if I knew what the smell was and I said I had noticed it, but I hadn't investigated yet. I started by opening the freezer and nothing smelled in there. Then I opened the refrigerator and smelled around. It took a second to smell anything and then I found it. It was just what we expected. I had a bag of chicken breasts that had been in there for awhile, but I didn't think that they would be bad yet. I was very very wrong. Once I smelled it I grabbed the bag to take it out of the refrigerator and when I grabbed it, there was a crack in the seal of the bag and I got a huge, disgusting whiff of the smell. I immediately turned away, collapsed from squatting to laying on the floor (which is also gross), and repeatedly gagged. It was like nothing else. I put it into the trash bag and we put it outside until tomorrow. It reeked! Deidre was in the kitchen also when this happens and she sees it all. When I go down, she starts cracking up, to the point where I thought she was going to pee in her pants. Later on I was reliving the experience-don't ask me why- and I start gagging again. I don't throw up very often, but I came pretty close.
On a better note...
Baylor basketball beat A&M in 5 overtimes! At College Station! Baylor is now 4-0 in conference. This week they were ranked at number 25 which was the first time they have been ranked in 40 years or so. This is also the first time girls and boys basketball has been ranked at the same time. We had sing practice tonight, so I was checking my phone at every water break. When the game was over, people's phones were going off like crazy and so we stopped and celebrated for a bit, then got back to dancing. What is ridiculous is that this game wasn't even televised. There was so much hype before the game and then it wasn't picked up. I think my favorite part about this is that when I watch sportscenter, Baylor is making headlines for good reasons and not because someone killed someone. They are talking highly about the coach and the entire program. I am so proud to be a Baylor bear! :)

Post Office Frustrations
Today I feel like I have been going non-stop. I had class at 9:30 and then came home for lunch and went back to class at 12:30. After that class I went to HEB to get a few things and then came back home to drop everything off. I left again to go to the post office before I had to go pick up the kids. I went to the downtown one that is closest and the line was almost to the door. There was 1 person working and then 1 other person just selling stamps. I wait in line for about half an hour and I see this girl go up with a box full of smaller packages to be mailed. It is 3:00 by now, so I have to leave and I was only halfway down the line. It was insane. So I go pick up Jacob because Andrew went home "sick." I stay there until 5 and then stop by the post office in Woodway. I drive up and go in and there isn't a line at all. There were 2 people working and I waited about 30 seconds. I mail my book I sold on half.com and get back in the car. The song on the radio was still playing from when I got out of the car. Note to self: Always go to Woodway to mail something. It is worth the drive. I would have probably waited for an hour at the other one if I had the time. Ridiculous.
After the post office I came back home to get everything together for the rest of the day. I had a meeting at 6, community group at 7, and sing at 9. I got home at 11 and did some homework and now I can't wait for my bed. I think that my life will be this crazy for awhile...

let the countdown begin
4 months from today I will have graduated! I will also be franticly moving out of my apartment by the 18th. This is getting very exciting.
Today I almost felt like I was in New York. It was cold outside and I was actually wearing a coat and boots. I walked to class from my apartment, so it was very similar. Texas smells better though.
I went to a new class today. I have a Civic Education class that is on Thursdays. It's only 1 hour a week and it's called Poverty in Waco. I think I am going to like it a lot. I hope it will help me prepare for New York and give me new ideas. We are required to do 30 hours of community service work with people in poverty, and we have to do a poverty simulation for a weekend. It will be interesting.
A new body part is sore today. Now it is my lower back. I can't decide if it is from sing practice or from my bed. My bed feels comfortable, but I think it messes me up. It is ghetto to say the least. It is barely a frame with a mattress on top. I also have some sort of knot on my leg. I have no idea where it came from. What is happening to me?
I am ready for the weekend! Especially for no class on Monday! It will be a nice break. This week has felt so busy. I feel like sing is already taking over my life and it's only the first week!

day 2
My life usually isn't this interesting, but there were a couple things from today that I thought were worth mentioning.
1st: I am sore from where I sit on my bike. I'm not kidding when I say this seat is uncomfortable.
2nd: I love my speech professor. She is so funny and I think the class will be a lot of fun and not as scary as I thought.
3rd: I got an email from my racquetball teacher asking if I was cleared to be physically active. (we had to fill out an information card and we had to include any medical information she should know, so I told her I pass out for no apparent reason.) She sounded pretty concerned in the email.
4th: I am also sore from Sing practice last night. We did a lot of extending arms in sharp movements (if that makes any sense) so now I feel like my elbows are hyper-extended.
5th: Danielle and one of her guy friends are coming to Waco in a couple of weeks! She will stay with me and we will get to hang out, and I will get to be a little tour guide for the metropolis of Waco! and possibly Austin/Georgetown!
6th: I am in my last semester at Baylor taking a freshman speech class AND I had to look on the campus map to figure out where the building was. Thankfully I was looking at the map online in my apartment and not right in the middle of campus. That would have been embarrassing.
I think that was it. I have had a very enjoyable day.

last first day of school ever!
Today was my last first day of school ever! Unless you count tomorrow as another first day. Anyway, as I was sitting in my classes today, listening to my professors talk about what we will be learning and what assignments we have, I am thinking about how pointless some of this stuff will be to me. They claim it will help us to become better professionals, but most of it is not relevant to what I will be doing. Hopefully there will be enough useful things that I won't be so anxious to get it over with.
I don't know if I mentioned this already, but spring break is going to be so much fun! I will leave the 7th most likely and be in New York until the 24th. The second week that I will be there, Charlotte, Kyle, and Danielle will all be up there. I'm so glad we will get to have a mini reunion. And they will all be around to celebrate my birthday!!! Spring break isn't that far away either!
We started sing practice last night. I thought it started at 7:30, but apparently it started at 7. It wasn't a big deal, they just got their character assignments and went over a few things. I didn't miss any dancing so that was good. Tonight we practiced again and learned a lot. I really hope I can remember it for tomorrow. We usually practice until 11, so I won't get in bed before 12 most nights. I'm not so sure about this... Monday Wednesday Friday I don't start until 11, so that shouldn't be a problem. Tuesday and Thursday I start at 9:30 which isn't early, but I'd like to sleep later.
Tomorrow night my community group is meeting up again. I'm excited to catch up with everyone.
I rode my bike today for the first time, not counting the test drive I took down the street at home. I miss my old bike. This new one is really uncomfortable. The seat hurts so bad. The handle bars are low, so I feel like I am really hunched over. Hopefully I will get used to it. Another thing I have to get used to is the new lock I got for it. I got one that is supposed to be the most secure, but it is hard to get on and off. It's not as convenient as the other one, but at least my bike SHOULDN'T get stolen.

rush week
This past week has been rush week, or panhellenic recruitment, whichever you prefer. This year I was a rho chi, or recruitment counselor. My responsibilities consisted of keeping time during the parties and knocking at specific times. My title was a "door monitor" which can also be called the coolest job ever. My job didn't last that long and during the parties I enjoyed movies, sudoku and some reading. I didn't have a group of crazy nervous girls to console, which was great. I didn't have to call anyone and tell them the didn't get a bid and then console them when all their hopes and dreams were crushed by a sorority. I also didn't have to be on the other side and talk to random girls about meaningless things all day long. It was so worth it! The bad thing about being a rho chi is that now that we have a new pledge class, I don't know ANY of the girls because I haven't met them throughout the semester or parties. It's ok though... I think I am already one of those seniors that no one really knows because I'm not involved in everything. :)
Today was bid day when everyone got their new pledge class. I get to be a tri delt again and wear letters, which means my t-shirt wardrobe has doubled, maybe tripled. Tonight was pearl jam, an all girls dance party where each class dresses up in a theme. The seniors always do risky business. I thought we should break tradition and be original, but no one asked me. It is really fun if you enjoy dancing and being crazy. My freshman year I hated it because I wasn't comfortable dancing, and I didn't know anyone very well. The past couple of years it has been a lot of fun. Tonight it wasn't as fun. My little pearl pal that I am taking care of is really shy and doesn't like to dance, so I didn't have as much fun. It's ok though, because I know how she felt, and I would have wanted the same thing. While we were talking at dinner she asked if I had any good stories from my summer in NY, and so I of course tell her about passing out on the subway. She then tells me that she passes out often. I couldn't believe it! How random. She has passed out a lot more that I have and she has been out for as long as 10 minutes. Crazy. I would not be content not knowing what was causing that! Later on when the new members were being introduced we had to say something random that we had in common, so I told everyone that we both pass out for no apparent reason, so watch out!
Tomorrow we are all going to church together and then lunch. Yes, all 200 or something, to the same place for lunch. Hopefully we will make it out by dinner time.
Last night I saw The Kite Runner. It was a really good movie. I had no idea what it was going to be about and I am surprised I liked it as much as I did. I would recommend it.
I bought books for the last time a few days ago. That is something that I am looking forward to not ever doing again. This year it wasn't too expensive, but it wasn't fun paying for. I am starting to get excited about my last semester of school!!!! I hope I enjoy most if not all my classes. That would be great. Tomorrow we start sing practice!!!! They announced the theme sometime this week I am assuming, but I wasn't around, so I have no idea what the theme is or what costumes look like. I am getting anxious to find out! Too bad I will not share that top secret info until the end of February. :)
Now it is time for me to change out of my risky business attire and get ready for bed!

too much vacation = boredom
So I haven't done much the past couple of weeks. Now I am getting to the point where it is hard to enjoy because I am getting bored. I have been productive with a few things. I have mastered the hard sudoku, put music on my grandma's ipod, and have gotten plenty of sleep. Seriously though, I have gotten some done. I had set myself a goal to get support stuff done by the 7th and I am almost done with it all. I have written my letter, made a brochure, made a response card, and addressed envelopes. I have to wait to do the rest Monday, but there isn't too much left to do. The other main part of my goal was to get my application for the US/C2 position finished, but I haven't gotten it yet. Thursday was the busiest day since I have been in Georgetown. I had a meeting with Charlotte at church, a haircut appointment, and then another appointment to get pictures taken. I really wanted to spread everything out but it didn't work that way. Yesterday I got a call to babysit, so I spent my day doing that and then came home and had dinner with the Levy's and watched the Spurs. Today I printed my brochure and letters and I took my car to get inspected and the oil changed. PS, my car shouldn't have passed because my tires were so bad, but they missed it and someone caught it later after it was too late. That makes me feel real safe driving now.
I've been looking at my calendar a lot recently. I have been putting dates in and thinking about things. I will be busy with something nearly every weekend until the end of March. It will be a slow start in January, but once February comes I have Disciple Now, Initiation, and 2 weekends of Sing. After Sing it will be time for Spring Break in New York! I counted the days and I will be in New York longer than Texas during March. Crazy! AND I think it will be a summer missionary reunion! Charlotte, Kyle, and Danielle are all trying to go visit then, so that is very exciting! I also counted how many weeks until Spring Break and it is 9 weeks away. That doesn't seem like long at all! I guess because my last countdown to New York went on for 4 months! Then after I come back it will only be 8 weeks until graduation.
A few days ago I was thinking about post graduation and how I will never have school again. That is such a strange thought because I have been in school for as long as I can remember, excluding summers. Then I added the thought of "working" full time. My job is going to be amazing. I really hope I can do this for a long time because the thought of a "real job" doesn't sound fun at all.

I counted the days and I will be in New York longer than Texas during March. Crazy! AND I think it will be a summer missionary reunion! Charlotte, Kyle, and Danielle are all trying to go visit then, so that is very exciting! I also counted how many weeks until Spring Break and it is 9 weeks away. That doesn't seem like long at all! I guess because my last countdown to New York went on for 4 months! Then after I come back it will only be 8 weeks until graduation.
A few days ago I was thinking about post graduation and how I will never have school again. That is such a strange thought because I have been in school for as long as I can remember, excluding summers. Then I added the thought of "working" full time. My job is going to be amazing. I really hope I can do this for a long time because the thought of a "real job" doesn't sound fun at all.
