HEPBURN TO THE RESCUE

last night my mom and I were still wallowing about liz leaving for the philippines. the only cure was some popcorn and audrey hepburn.

in the middle of breakfast at tiffany's, we got a surprise...a skype call from Liz! she told us she arrived safely in japan and was waiting to board her plane for manila. liz looked so pretty & happy and it assured me that this whole separating thing is going to be okay :)

only four more days until i will be in the magical place of cape town that i have been dreaming about for so long. i took some time to reflect on what i know now so i can look back on it after my trip. this is what i came up with:

being a theology major rocks. 

i have found a best friend.

i want to be challenged in my faith.

i really like grilled cheese and tomato soup.

my favorite books are autobiographies.

i will never again take for granted the ability to run.

the campus ministry building is home.

it is okay to be alone sometimes.

i like learning at school.

i want to go on another silent retreat.

i am addicted to coffee (oopsie).

mornings are my favorite.

i aspire to be a hiker/outdoorsy. 

i like being a psychology research assistant.

i want to read every day.

i want to be a campus minister at a college.

i want to live in New York City.

i like to talk to God while i am driving.

i will finish with a quote from breakfast at tiffany's.

“let me make one thing clear. i am not now — nor have i ever been — named ‘fred.’”

just kidding. lets finish with a quote from the bible.

"i know, o Lord, that a man's life is not his own; 
it is not for man to direct his steps" (jeremiah 10:23)
