Listen.

I just love this song and I love the way Mama Cass sings it. I don't know why, I just do.

It's Summertime

Well geez louise, I returned home from sophomore year a lot faster than expected. We had a whole day of tornadoes and time in the basement the Wednesday before exams started. They were so bad that they knocked the power out and we lost water too. So classes were cancelled and then it was decided that Thursday classes would be cancelled as well but then at 3PM an all campus meeting was held and we were told we had 24 hours to pack up and get out.

WHAT?! I know.

Anyway, I'm here now and I've been here for almost two weeks. All of my professors either gave me the option to take my final or just didn't assign one at all. So I didn't take any. Ha! All I know is that with 18 credit hours of classes I came out with three B's and three A's and a 3.39 GPA for the semester! Thank you, thank you, Jesus. Each semester I am so thankful for getting good grades. I suppose I just can't believe that I can succeed in college. Although, I always did well in school growing up... for some reason I guess I subconsciously think I can't do it.

So That's the short of it but I'm pretty sure that A.) Nobody reads this blog so really this is just a reminder to my future self about the crazy end of sophomore year (which, I will remind you, began a week late due to 8 inches of snow! Crazy weather.) B.) If anyone does read this blog they most likely go to Covenant and remember quite well what happened to us.

So I don't have a job. I was offered one but then HR took it away since I wouldn't be back in time for the May 3 orientation. But then I was back due to the tornadoes. So then I tell them I'm back and I'll be there! But then they don't even respond. Yeesh! I'm jobless. It's kind of nice but at the same time I hate it because I feel useless. I want to be working on stuff for the hall next year since I'll be the RA but I feel like it's kind of early yet. Blah! Being at school seems easier than being unemployed. I've applied to tons of places but it's hard to nail down a job when they know you'll only be there for a few months. My mom reminds me that God is in control. He knows the plan for my life and it's better that what I can even imagine. I know it's true but it is hard to really grasp and believe.

On another note, today was nice. It started with Momma and I going to Starbucks with the Bears. The moms go every Wednesday to talk about everything. So cute! Now that it's summertime Hannah and I can go too and today Natalie joined us. We talked about wanting to do summery things so when we all left us girls decided to go to the beach to just walk. Well we walked a total of two miles! It was really relaxing and nice to just let the water wash over us and dig our toes in the sand. We walked to their pier and back to 10th Avenue South. On the way we people watched, stepped over washed up jelly fish and took some silly pictures. We walked back to the car and then went to Panera's for lunch and Rita's for a treat. As we ate our dessert we heard thunder. It was a perfect Florida, summer day. I wish everyday was like that and I also wish that the rest of our Bear/Kercher group was complete with the additions of Allison and Lauren. They bring some more funny into the group.

Well. I guess that's all.
