As the days melt together...

Life rushes by. I go along with it, but then there's the occasional something that reminds me to slow down. I realize I've been rushing through and not taking my time to read my Bible or enjoy the good things God has given me. For day 7 I am supposed to have a picture of my most treasured item. Truth is, things on earth are temporary. As is stated in Isaiah 40:8 "The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever." Even though this book itself might feel the wear of the world, the contents are really what I treasure; God's holy word.

I've had this since I was 6. :O

heheh I skipped a few days so I am just going to start where I left off.

Day 04 - A picture of your night.
Lately I have not really been doing too much. So I am going to do a picture from my day instead of my night.

4/30 I'm gonna shoot you with my camera, a camera not a gun.. haha

I need to catch up a little so now I am going to do Day 05 - A picture of your favorite memory.

This one is really hard for me. I'm looking through albums and albums of favorite memories right now. Fun stuff on the road trip in '09.. Camp from '10 and '09.. Christian youth rallies.. Big family gatherings.. I see one main theme through them all; family and friends. So I finally decided to go with my clan at camp for the week I was counseling 5-6th graders in 2010. We were the smallest clan, lost in the end, but were probably the tightest friends by the end of the week. I really enjoyed counseling with these people and getting to know all 7 campers in our clan. (As I said, we were stuck with half the size or less of any other clan) So this picture sums up our clan. I had an an amazing time even though I had lost my voice by the first 2 hours of camp. Basically, we painted all over each other, made a crazy looking flag, rocked out almost every single game, and became great friends. 

5/30 This is our clan working on the clan flag.

Okay, last one so that I am caught up to today. Day 06 - A picture of a person you'd love to trade places with for a day. Another hard one.. You know what, I'm satisfied with where God has placed me. I wouldn't want to trade places with anyone. So....

6/30 Staying right here. Not trading places with anyone.

Yay! I'm up to date now. Ciao!

Happpppppyyyyyyyy!! (3/30)

  So I'm really happy and excited cause I thought I had lost my favorite necklace (like really important to me) somewhere on the big ol campus but my sister just found it in the laundry!! *gasps for a breath* heheh. Anyways, besides that I have also noticed a general increase in my happiness as of late. I think it is due to a couple factors, but the most obvious to me was the weather last week. It. was. GORGEOUS! At least for a couple days.
  Today is day 3 out of my 30 day challenge and the category is.. *drumroll*patapatapatapat!*...  A picture of the cast from your favorite show! For me that has to be Doctor Who. Yes, I watch British sci-fi!! The cast changes frequently so I am going to try and find a picture with my favorite cast all time instead of the current.

Okay, so this is pretty much my favorite characters. :D I'm happy I could actually find this picture since it has all of them.

Day 02 - A picture of you and the person you have been close with for awhile.
I had to think about this for a couple seconds, but I have come to the conclusion that my sisters have always been the ones I have shared my dreams with (literally and figuratively :D). When we were younger the three of us usually played together. Sure we had our fights. Sometimes two of us would get mad at the other one. It didn't always end up nicely. Let's just say we all had really hot tempers. As we grew older and experienced new things together, we started to confide more in each other. I think one major role in this was our schooling. When I was in private school, I had different experiences. Things seemed to go (mostly) uphill from the time when I was taken out of private school on. I think growing up so close to them (sharing rooms, playing etc.) has made my two younger sisters the two people I have been close to the longest. I would add my cousin in there too, though, cause even though it took awhile to get over our differences, she became one of my other closest peoples on the whole planet.

Okay, so I had to find a picture with my two younger sisters AND my cousin AND me so I'll just label it. :D
left to right: Sister, niece, friend, me, cousin <3, other sister.
And yes this picture is from last year cause I don't see my cousin enough.
