proactive

michelle nurin's roommate gave me her proactive today!! apparently she doens't use it anymore so she gave it to me and it's pretty much brand new so yeah! the stuff costs like $60 right?a nd i've wanted to get it for so long but now i get to try it out for free! woot

accountability

before university people kept telling me to think about and figure out where i stood in terms of alchohol and stuff like that before i got to university. i guessi never really took the time to do that..i should have... i guess not really thinking about it left me feeling pretty stupid. because of certain events, the issue of alchohol consumption was brought into the light this past week, and it was interesting to discover the contrasting views about it even within the small group of ccf girls i spend the most time with. kat, jo, marilyn, emzhei, alison, jacqueline, laura, and i got together tonight and just talked about our views and just shared with eachother... i was a bit afraid beforehand... i guess scared that there would be all this tension and that we would be judging eachother or whatever. but it proved to be a pretty beneficial evening and it showed that we all care for eachother and are willing to listen and hold eachother accountable for the boundaries we set for ourselves. i guess it was good for me to think about my own boundaries too some more. sometimes you dont' think about things in a certain angle until it's brought to light. but yeah.. i dunno it also meant alot that emzhei and marilyn came even though emzhei wasnt' there that night and marilyn wasn't that comfortable. they knew my fears and that i wasn't sure how much i trusted ppl and etc... and they came to support me. which means the world. God has really blessed me with incredible friends -- both to hold me accountable, and to give me loving support. all these girls have in some way shown these things to me and for that i am truly thankful.

sometimes i want to know...

What do I mean to you?

is it so wrong to ask... or wonder...

"For you formed my inmost parts; You covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise you, for I am FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE; *marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well." Psalm 139:13-14

and when i fall down on my knees and pray... my heart is captured when i hear you say... come with Me my child to a secret place... I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU.

Me: really??? that IS weird... [check my alarm clock] oh weird... so does mine!

november 6th


november 8th


i love the first snow. like sifting icing sugar. :)
my turn to think about priorities...

i once heard someone say that when you make God your top priority that everything else will just fall where it's supposed to. Sometimes, you worrya bout all this stuff... and like sometimes i tell myself i don't have time for God because of school and because of friends... i guess i haven't been thinking about how God is lord over *everything* including time. and if i honor him by giving him my time how much more abundantly will he bless me in terms of things like school and friends and etc tahn if i just try to take things into my own hands?

and besides... i've been feeling so frustrated and empty without that time spent.

and yet i can't seem to find that motivation. that *feeling*.

why is there always something in the way?

maybe by emotion, i have, in these past months, given up late night phone calls, attachments, and advice givers... but i will not let emotion make me give up my relationship with God. gotta kick my priorities back into gear.

prayer requested.
