Hi.

I hope you get to know me a little bit better through this site.
Come and stay a while!

the final 19




19 days left of being 19. I am stoked. to recap this year, the top 19 things...

....I learned
  1. My attitude determines my life--where I go, who I meet, what I do
  2. I can't control everything. Life happens.
  3. I learn every day from the people around me
  4. All roommates--Mandy, Melanie, Erin, Whitney, Amy, or Neltje--are the best to talk to after a fun date, a hard day, or when you've got something on my mind
  5. Friends always pull through when given a chance
  6. Everyone may move on to different phases in life, but that doesn't mean I'm "behind"
  7. Nachos should not be a staple college food
  8. Accept my own flaws, but not let them overrule who I want to become
  9. Living in guilt makes life heavy and difficult to bear. I've been given citizenship to this country, and I can't live life in guilt of that. BUT I can live in hope and action to make something of my position
  10. Missionaries are fun to write, think about, send packages to, and support
  11. When I really need to get up, I can. Otherwise, don't count on it
  12. Nine o'clock class is best
  13. Living in Africa is pretty much my best decision ever made
  14. I can make friends with any person I really have an interest in coming to know
  15. Sometimes people have let me down, but that does, in no wise, mean that I can no longertrust them
  16. Memories last a lifetime
  17. Never regret anything, because at one time it was exactly what I wanted
  18. You live and you learn, as far as relationships go....
  19. Life's most exciting adventures happen when you are forgetting to search for them

"What's new in life?"

what if they say no?
