so it's been like...3 months since i wrote anything on here. my new addiction to facebook is probly partially responsible for that. :( so i'm at the university of florida...what can i say? like they say around here...it's great to be a florida gator! this is becca and me just a few minutes after we won the national championship baby!!! 

roomies!! esther on the left, becca on the right. the guys from campus crusade for christ hosted a ladies night out for all us girls last weekend. it was so fun to dress up and get waited on hand and foot. not to mention that our very own tim tebow also made an appearance. his brother peter is one of the leaders with crusade, so we've got the hook-up. :)

and last but not least...i'm guessing that most of you know about this new development in my life. :) the worst part is those 1000+ miles between us...i really really miss him. um if spring break could get here really fast that would be great...

so here i am at uf, doing what i've wanted to do for a long time...but i'm still feeling a little restless. is there ever going to be a time or place in my life where i can just be completely at peace and at rest with where i am and not wishing i was somewhere else? actually yea...i think that's called the peace of God which transcends all understanding...but why do i struggle so much? i keep thinking back to last year this time...and language school and all those wonderful friends and those countries i grew to love...and i know that part of my heart is forever lost to central america and the people who live there. what do i do about it? some days i sure do feel like dropping everything and running back there. will i ever stop searching? or wait...am i even supposed to stop searching?

yes, the rumors are true. i am back at rbc for second term. as far as i know, that will be it. the whole thing was unplanned, unexpected, last-minute, and spontaneous...yet i really feel like this is where i am supposed to be. i don't know if i'll ever start expecting the crazy changes of plans that God constantly seems to throw my way. you'd think i'd learn...guys, we have an exciting God. in other news...

over the last couple days, i slept about 7 out of 54 hours. wait, is that normal for a college-age person? i'm not sure anymore.

mel hit a massive coyote at about 1.30 am as we were driving through kentucky on the way to rbc. exciting times. seriously, it was like the size of a small horse or something.

philosophy at 8.30 am. even kouns declared it an oxymoron.

here's a shout-out to my homie mel. to any of you who don't know, this girl is fabulous. i sure do love hanging out with her and we definitely have a lot of good times. this picture...well, it's probly the most sane of our photo shoot at starbucks the other night. wow. for a good time, drink coffee and then take pictures. mo, maybe i got this idea from you. :)

in other news, my dad let me use the chain saw today. yes!! ok, so more like it was laying there and i just kind of took over. and i do mean took over. look out.

so with ohio state ranked number 1 and florida at number 2, it's a great time to be alive. :)

we went to the game last week...

Thing 1 and Thing 2...(curtis and zach)

Thing Orange and Thing Blue. we are hard core.

This my friends is The Swamp. 91,000 Gator fans is a beautiful sight.

and here's me and keish in The Swamp.

i guess i kind of missed out on that whole game face thing. sorry keish. anyway it was great and we rolled over the crimson tide 28-13.

and guys, guess what?! I'm in!! I'm going to the University of Florida in January. it's for real. yay!!

i would like to dedicate this post to my beautiful sister keisha...it is so amazing to be home and spending time with her!! since we both work for Dad, we get to spend a lot of time together. we're trying to design work shirts for dad's business...they were going to say "we kick grass" but i think now it's gonna be more like "please try not to stare"...i'm pretty sure we're in the minority in the labor force around here and all the male workers make sure we know it. yikes. and last weekend we went to the mall...oh my let's just say a caffeine high and awkward dresses in a fitting room make for a good time...i was laughing so hard i couldn't even stand up. keish, thanks for listening, for telling me what i need to hear, for making me laugh, for talking me into buying clothes that i can't afford...for being my best friend. i love you so much. it's good to be back. i really missed you.
