2010 was good to me. no doubt a winning season.

Crazy how much better life is when God is genuinely at the center.

Here's to another year of having my heart explode with God's goodness.

too too too fast

oh hey guys. sorry, i know it's been forever since i've written anything. this semester was a busy one. i took 17 credits (which is a much, much larger load than any semester in the past), i took up a part time job coaching 2 volleyball teams for the parks and rec, and i sang with my church (which hardly felt like a duty.. it was an enormous blessing and a privilege). and i loved every minute of it. i'm an optimist and a Christian and i'll always believe that God is good. but even if i didn't always believe so, this would be one of the times when it would be easy to say. God has been very, very good to me and these have been some of the happiest months of my life.

so: here's a couple highlights..

my relationships: i've been blessed with a million amazing relationships within the last 4 months, it's so insane. i remember when i used to talk about people who've made me happy recently in my blogs, i would tag them in a post on facebook. but i'd literally run out of room if i tried to do that this time. you just know who you are :]

music: i love the worship team. i act mean to you guys but it's only cuz i like you so much. i liked going to catalyst and pasco with you. you are nice. except for brian.

my roommate:.. oh dear beth graham. you make me way happy. i'm glad you're not as pristine as i thought you were when i met you last semester.. because if you were.. yeah. you know. it makes me so extremely happy that i daily look forward to the time of day when we can take our pants off to french techno. and that we can jam out to madera limpia. and that you fart audibly around me now (that's no secret.. everybody knows). and that you laugh at me when i get so frustrated over my life during prayer that i start swearing. and that you laugh at pretty much every unfiltered comment that comes out my mouth. and that God gave me you as a roommate, because i have no doubt in my mind that he did that for us.

God is so, so good to me. i'm very excited for the future and the things he's changing my heart toward. i'm glad that he's faithful, and i'll praise Him when life gets hard again. but man. my life is stinkin goood.

so to sum up! 1. church is good. 2. classes were good. 3. friends are good. 4. God is good, and consequently 5. the future will be good. oh and... 6. there might even be a boy.

i love you guys. let me know how i can pray for you.

here's to the end of a fantastic semester :]
