Day 4 – My Views on Religion

And a year later, she writes.

This is actually a pretty tough post. Throughout college my views changed dramatically. While I’ve always considered myself a Christian, my beliefs have undergone a massive change from legalistic to liberal to somewhere in between.

I suppose I was raised what some might call Sabatarian, but I always called “non-denominational” so as to not spark conversation. Now, I’ll talk openly about my religious beliefs and what has changed for me.

Junior year of college was a toughie. I was reading my Bible daily and felt like Satan was attacking me. I was on my first Departmental Probation for failing a couple courses the summer before, but was blessed to make it though that Fall semester with a 3.28 GPA. I can’t even tell you how many times I got down on my knees, eyes full of tears, praying to God to get me through that semester. And He did.

While I would say religion is important because we, as humans, need to have relationships, I believe that a relationship with Christ is so much more than just a religion

I could go on, but for the sake of this blog entry being short, that’s all for now.

Day 3

Just a little bit late.

My view on drugs and alcohol.

I can’t say I’ve had much experience with drugs other than Advil and AleveĀ  or the occasional prescription antibiotic. That’s all I have to say about that.

Alcohol isn’t that exciting of a concept either now that I’m 21. It’s nice every once and awhile. I was pretty excited about turning 21, but it’s been almost 2 months and well, it’s expensive. I have better things to spendĀ  my money on.

Sorry about that not so exciting blog post. There’s a reason I don’t blog anymore.

No, I’m Not Dead

Everybody who knows me in real life is well aware of this fact. But I guess my blogging world, however small it’s gotten, might be wondering.

I graduated college, WHOOPIE! and am now working at an undisclosed location with an undisclosed number of children. They’re fun. I love my job. They’re happy, they’re sad, they’re happy again. Total balls of energy. Thus my blogging has deteriorated.

Sorry about that.

And for anyone left out there, can y’all please pray for my family? 3 of my cousins are battling cancer right now, and prayers are always ALWAYS awesome.

I’m an Aggie

About 4 years ago, I was a 16 year old kid getting ready to graduate from high school.

I danced at Harry’s and the Hall, I pond hopped, I went grocery shopping at HEB at midnight, I’ve been kissed at Midnight Yell by a member of the corps, I walked around campus during E Walk and Elephant Walk, I went to Fish Camp, I played football after a hurricane, I went to class, I cried in a professors office, I changed my major 3 times, I was part of the 12th Man, I traveled to Waco and Austin to BTHO Baylor and t.u., I carved my name on a table at the Chicken, I went to Taco C after a football game, I went to Fuego, I played intramurals, I went to Ring Dance, I got my Aggie Ring, I accumulated 138 college credits.

Tomorrow, I’ll be a 20 year old woman graduating from college.

Day 2 – Where You’d Like to be in 10 Years

Ten years… that’s a long time for now. In fact, I’ll be 26 days away from turning 31. So not only will I be old, I’ll be over 30. Joy.

I guess I hope to either be teaching and coaching or doing something will the school system. This summer I’m working on getting certified, and after that hopefully getting my master’s in either education or administration. Something like that, anyway.

The ride home on Monday I got passed by a sheriff and was reminded of scream 4. I kind of want to marry a cop. I don’t really know why. Somehow that all got connected in my head.

Oh, and hopefully I’ll have a kid or two.

We shall see.
