Happy New Year!!!!


Welcome to 2007!!!!

I hope that this year will be a blessing to you and will be the best year yet. For me, 2006 was a year of dreams, hopes, tears, happiness, contentment, pain, and joy. And vacations, lots of good vacations. Only God knows what He has in store for me for this next year. I just need to learn to trust Him on it.

Happy New Year to the Blogosphere! And good luck writing the correct year for the next month!

Deals tagged me. I'm going to rebel and not follow ALL the rules of the game, but I'll comply on the main points. I'm supposed to list 6 weird things that I do, or 6 weird things about me. So, here they are in no particular order.

1. I can fall asleep mid-sentence, and do, often. It's a gift, really. I can fall asleep so fast that I surprise even myself. I'll be in the middle of Pillow Talk, and Brian will be like, "what?!!" And yes, I will be either carrying on a conversation of my now dream, or just sleeping. Yea. Nice, huh?


2. The song "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" will put a smile on my face EVERY time I hear it. Conversely, hearing "O Holy Night" or "It Is Well With My Soul" will send tears down my face. 99% of the time.


3. I could eat Asian and Mexican food for the rest of my life and never get tired of it. yum.


4. I read the same books over and over again. I watch the same movies over and over again. I think I was conditioned into this as a child because there was such a limited selection of movies that we were allowed to watch that we had to watch the same ones over and over. So now, it comes naturally.


5. I can't eat Pasta Roni or Mac n' Cheese unless it has that "Rooster Sauce" stuff on it. It is now against my religion to eat Mac n' Cheese that doesn't burn my lips.


6. I sleep with 2 stuffed animals. But you knew that already.

4.0


Oh yeah baby. I've got a 4.0 GPA these days. WAHOOOOOOOOO!!!

I got A's in BOTH classes this semester. AND the class I tested out of. AND the one I took this Summer.

4 classes. 4 A's.

Stoked. I am simply stoked.

I would not normally be bragging about this, but you have no idea how hard college was on me the first go around. My GPA up until this year was a 2.6 something. And now, 8 years later. I have a 4.0. So, it's averaging to at least a B now. This is progress!

I'm SO excited!

Skewl


Bah! I am currently in the "I've got way too many tests to take in the next two weeks" phase of school.

2 tests today
1 test Thursday
3 tests Tuesday
3 tests Thursday.

Yes, three final exams with 3 parts each. Glory be! I need some serious prayers people. I need to be able to concentrate, remember, and of all times for me to have my right hand hurting for some unknown reason! I think it's scared. Please pray for my right hand!

Anyone want to practice signing with me? Pwease?
