Life.



Someone posted this today and I thought it was awesome, so I decided to share it as well.


School is back in motion and I'm going full-time. Since I commute from Ringgold to Cleveland, I leave my house about an hour before class, even though it's only a 30 minute drive, just incase I run into traffic. So I arrived about 30 minutes early to class today. I brought a book with me so that I could read while I wait. I was the first person in the class room so I was enjoying the silence as I read and waited. After about 10 minutes a few of my fellow classmates came into class (whom I do not know). I sat and read my book as they chatted a few seats away from me. As I was reading I noticed that I started hearing music. At first I thought someone's phone was going off, but the music continued and it became louder. I then realized that one of my classmates had pulled out her phone and decided to put her phone on Pandora while she waited for class to start. Don't get me wrong, everyone knows how much I love music, but this was just so odd to me. I felt like I was in a movie. You know how movies depict classrooms as this huge party before class starts, I halfway expected someone to come rolling in on their skateboard next. It really kinda annoyed me because this music was loud and to top it off, the girl was talking to the girl next to her and was talking OVER the music. Really? If your going to play music, either bring head phones and enjoy it by yourself or actually listen to it instead of talking over it. This incident really crawled under my skin, plus I lost interest in my book due to the music and loud voice blaring in the room.


There's my rant for the day. I think I'm really going to enjoy the classes I'm taking. Graduate courses are usually very interesting. I'm also taking a Non-Profit class where I have to design my own non-profit organization. Pretty pumped considering this was my side project I had planned to be doing outside of school.


In other news, a few friends of mine, Alyssa and Nicola, are about to move into some triplexes that are at the beginning of my neighborhood this week! I am SO EXCITED to have them as my new neighbors and I'm especially pumped that they are only 1 mile from my house!


That's all I have. God is still awesome and he continues to show me how much he loves me. I'm so grateful for all the challenges he continues to place in my life. Even though some days are harder than others, God continues to give me the strength I need. I can honestly say, that I am slowly falling madly in love with Him (Isaiah 40:31)
