  • Well, Wednesday I was up till 1:30 in the morning, Thursday till 3:15, Friday till 1:20, Saturday till 2:15(graduation day!), and tonight it's 1:27 and I'm still not in bed.


    Needless to say, if you guys haven't figured it out already, I am definitely a night person.

  • Don't be afraid to ask dumb questions.  They're easier to handle than dumb mistakes.

  • *Sigh*  Why does tomorrow, or technically today, have to be the last day of Legacy?    Why can't there be another week and another week and another week...?  Why does this have to be my last year?  I don't want to leave.  There are so many memories I have there, the time with friends, the classes, everything about it.  I don't want it to end.  I suppose I could always try failing senior year, but I think it's too late to be able to pull that off, especially since I'm graduating this Saturday.  I'm going to miss Legacy.


    "This door of my life must now close so that a new one can now open." ~Unknown.  I just wish it hadn't come so soon.  I've always known this day was coming, and it hadn't really bothered me.  But now, the finality of it is finally hitting.    I just don't want to leave Legacy behind.  I'll be back though.  I'll still come to visit and I'll drop in whenever I can and come to the activities even though I technically shouldn't.


    But in the meantime, it's off to a newer and bigger mission field next fall.  I'll be joining the ranks of college students and starting BCC then.  And you know what?  I can being doing God's work on a campus that shuns Him.  It will be a new experience, but I will welcome it with open arms.  We are in a war for the hearts and souls of every person, and what better way to reach them then to be where they are, to infiltrate their territory?


    And now, good night peoples.  I must be rested for tomorrow.  I don't want to be half asleep for my last day of Legacy.

  • Hey everyone, I know, I know, I need to make a post that actually says something instead of just these these little three sentences or less posts.  Well, that's not happening right now because I don't have the time.  I did want to let you all know though that I have posted the first letter I got from Braum on his site.  You can go there to read it.  http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=Viper_USMC

  • I now have Braum's address at boot camp.  For those of you who want it, please contact either myself or his family.  If you write him, be sure to include tons of scripture in your letters because he will not be allowed to read his Bible except on Sundays.  If he gets caught reading it other times, it "will not be pretty."  Be in constant prayer for him, as this has been far harder than he expected and he is very worn out.  He could really use the encouragement and would love it if you would write him.  It would mean a great deal to him to know his friends are thinking of him.

  • Taryn, sorry this is late (by two whole days!  Gosh!)  Anyway, I hope you had a most happiest birthday of birthdays.  I believe you are 19 now, correct?


    I stand corrected.  Happy 20th!

  • Go here to sign the petition to stop the new 9 1/2 cent gas tax.   http://www.nonewgastax.com/ We only have 52 days left to get enough signatures.  Right now, Washington's gas tax is the 5th highest in the nation.  This new tax would make it number one.

  • Okay, that's weird.  For the last four days in a row, I have looked at my clock at exactly 9:11.

  • Happy 21st Birthday Gabriel Land!!! Congratulations on this momentous day (even though this is a day late   ).  Continue to walk with God as he molds you into the young lady He wants you to be.  You are one of the few girls I know whom I can with all honesty consider a "lady."  Don't ever lose that.   You have been a great friend to have and I consider myself blessed to have known you for all these years.
