Winter musings

Back at BU for another semester. I can not believe that after this one, I will be a senior (i just found out that I do actually have senior level credits right now)! And for once in my college career I might not be taking summer school (well at a campus, I might take one class online but I'm not sure yet).

Well, it didn't rain when I came back to school this time but it certainly was windy! Instead, we had a 'wintry mix' Saturday and Sunday. Jackson mostly got encased in a bit of ice as the snow just kinda skipped us. Oh well, it sure makes for some lovely trees. We braved the weather and went to church on Sunday but it took us about 15 minutes to thaw my car-never had to do that before! My friend from Iowa offered to scrape the winshield for me, so I handed her my credit card and she was like, that's what you use?! It was quite funny. Thankfully we cranked up the defrost and another friend had an ice scraper we used.

A hard lesson: don't get stuck living in the past. Look forward to when you can look back and say THAT has the mark of Christ!
Romans 8:24-25
"For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently."

PS for those of you who liked the red layout, i did too but i also like this one-Im all about the cheerfulness and happy colors. Kimjo, i thought id update my blog design too :)
