Oh my, I realized today how incredibely long it's been since I've really blogged... So I figure I have some catching up to do.
Well for starters, several of the friends I made when I visited England, have made a trip here! Which is incredibely exciting and I get the pleasure of hosting two of them in my very own house! How lovely :)
Otherwise-things-happenings-such: It's finally winter! Although it's seemed to have taken its sweet time getting here, (it's been around 50+ degrees all through january) the weather seems to finally understand that it's time for snow (or at least sleet?) and not time for afternoon-walk-weather. Although admittadely, out of all the seasons, winter is probably my least favourite. The so-very-much all-or-nothing-person that I am feels absolutely cheated unless there's at least two feet of snow on the ground. Sometimes I just want to shake my fist at the air and tell it that it had better unleash a blizzard of white fluffy blankets on us or don't have winter at all.....which I probably wouldn't mind. Spring all year sounds just lovely to me.
But of course I heave a sigh and unwillingly acknowledge the necessary presence of some winter and that there are probably lovely people out there who would be heart-broken were they never again to experience the cold...although I must say I cannot imagine why...
Anyway, enough of that, I'm probably the only one I know who uses a blog to rant about the weather...
Other life happenings include college-decision making...or lack of it. I just have to admit I have no earthly idea where in this world I want to go for the next four years...The options are endless, which simply leads to a very frustrated and uncomforatable bad-decision-maker such as myself...
Then there's the fact that with every passing moment I become more and more flustered because I know I'm running out of time... Why does society demand we grow up at a certain age, and go to a certain place, and do a certain thing, all by a certain time? It doesn't seem to leave much room for individuality, does it? I mean, if we're all different why are we all expected to do the same thing at the same time? I just...don't understand...asdfghj.
Anyway, enough of depressing-frustated-complaining-Anna, how out some positivity, eh? Well, let's just say I have a roof over my head, a family that loves me, food to eat, insulation, a working heater /air conditioner, friends that love me, a LICENSE!!!! (I can drive! I can drive! I can drive!), and a beautiful, wonderful, freckle-faced, curly-red-haired date to prom. :)
What was that? I need to explain that last part? Haha well not going to happen. I don't have words.
Anyway! So yes, I have my license, the world is open to me, I am loved, I am cared for, and God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. What else could a girl possibly need?
Live well, make every second count, rely on Him through all, and have a beautiful day. Farewell.
