Walk 29

Ummm...

so today 

was food experiment day.

And,

to say the least,

it didn't turn out well.

Not

at 

all.

But hey!

Tomorrow's a new day,

and there's a new episode of Pretty Little Liars

and

a new Messy Monday video (hopefully)!

Good things on the 29th of January:

Yeah, amazing picture I know. When I took Cody's picture, Instagram froze up on me and somehow the picture got deleted :/

This is why I had to go back and stir it, therefore causing the chocolate chips to melt and make the batter chocolatey. If you look at this picture below this one, you can still see tiny clumps of butter that I had to stir in.

The final product  o.O

•  Going to the late service at Stevens Street Baptist church today. Again, I really do love their music!
• Eating lunch with my friend Cody and his friend Ben. I was rolling the whole time, they were so funny! They would also break out (loudly) into song pretty much every ten minutes. It was a good lunch!
• Playing racquetball with Savannah.
• Going to The Perch with Savannah, Bradley, and Travis. While there, I got (what we thought was) a strawberry kiwi polar ice thing. Polar ice, Slushy (ie, ee, etc.), Icee, they're all synonymous!
• Eating the most healthy dinner ever, consisting of tortilla chips and cheese sauce, and an apple and crunchy peanut butter.
• Experimenting with food in my crockpot.

Yeah, 

the whole 

experimenting in my crockpot thing...

it didn't turn out too well.

Originally,

I wanted to be a total fatty and put cake mix on top of cookie mix.

A) I don't know why I wanted to do that, since brownie mix on top of cookie mix obviously would've been much better

B) I realized that I didn't actually have any oil and eggs to make the cake mix, so yeah... that idea got nixed.

So,

I decided to do just the cookies.

I think I went wrong

by letting it cook too long.

It...

it was interesting.

It 

A) turned dark brown because I stirred it after the chocolate chips had melted

B) turned into this weird cake consistency and smelled bad/weird and only tasted a little better than it smelled.

So,

now I know what not to do.

Trust me,

there will be many more experiments 

in my crockpot

in my future.

And you will get to see them all!

So Walk 29.

Honestly,

it was kind of boring again.

I feel bad,

because I kind of looked at it and sighed.

It was more of the rules that God gave Moses.

Only,

this time,

it was for the priest.

It was kind of gruesome in my eyes

because it involved killing lots of animals.

But,

I understand that it was necessary to cleanse the priests.

I guess,

I just have to look at it as one of those acts of obedience

that you need/have to follow.

To me,

it doesn't make much sense.

However,

I live in much different times than the Israelites did back then.

We don't have to do those sacrifices anymore

because Jesus paid the ultimate sacrifice.

And man,

am I grateful.

He gave me a new life in every which way.

No more sin,

and thankfully,

no more live sacrifices.

Today though,

we still have to make sacrifices,

they're just in a different manner now. 

God wants us to sacrifice the best of our

time

money

resources

love

for Him and His benefit.

I am, by nature, 

a very selfish person.

I have three other siblings,

so I am very protective of my stuff,

and I don't like to share.

Sacrificing my things to God

is honestly 

one of the biggest challenges I have faced

and have to face in the future.

Once I get an income,

I know 

tithing will be really hard for me.

It won't be so much that I won't want to,

but I'll get lazy

and forget

and say "oh I'll do it next month".

This also leads back to whenever I said I kept making excuses for doing things.

It's because I wasn't willing to sacrifice my time to God.

I had no real good use for it,

but just in case I decided to find one,

I wanted to keep my time to myself.

I can't do that.

I need to learn,

and I will learn,

that the best use of my time

is when I give it to God.

Honestly too, 

I feel the best 

when I've used my time for God and for others.

When I know I benefited someone besides just me,

it's been a good day.

I know that I need to ask God to help me be willing to sacrifice to Him.

Walk 28

Oh,

why,

hello, friend.

Welcome to,

Here's to you, Walter.

I'd like to take a moment to introduce myself.

My name is Morgan,

And,

I have crazy hair :)

haha...

today

was a hair experiment day.

It was...

interesting to say the least.

See for yourself:

yeah...

like I said,

interesting.

However,

I have managed to do worse.

This curl came out manageable to where I didn't have to straighten it.

Good things on the 28th of January:

If you don't count the constant, frigid wind, today was a pretty gorgeous day!

Uhh hello? What's better than ice cream after lunch?

On the way back from looking at apartments. Oh, I lied. This is on the way to the third and final complex we saw.

•  Waking up... later I guess you could say. It wasn't exactly late, considering it was somewhere between 9 and 10 a.m.
• Printing off some things that I need to print off.
• Walking and walking and walking, and hey! there was some more walking! Savannah and I went to look at the outside of some apartment complexes... and we walked. 
• Going to Walmart with Savannah.
• BEST PART OF THE DAY: DO YOU KNOW THOSE SOFT, THICK SUGAR COOKIES WITH THE ICING AND SPRINKLES AT THE STORE? WELL, WALMART HAD FULL SIZE AND MINI SIZE ONES IN THEIR SAMPLE TRAY. Honest to goodness, the Walmart here has had the best samples the past couple of times.
• Doing some house keeping chores. I hung up some pictures and a poster, did my laundry, cleaned the bathroom, and swiffered the floor. Yes, all of this should probably go on the bad things list, but I liked it. I didn't like the actual work, but I truly love the since of accomplishment I got.
• Watching more Netflix!!!

 

Hey,

you wanna see something cute?

I drew pictures last night!

Okay,

it's more like one picture,

but I took lots of pictures! 

Man, 

this post is filled with pictures.

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

like it!

So Walk 28 was another reflection post!

I really like these posts.

They kind of sum up what we've read this past week

by sort of telling us what we may have/should have picked up during our reading.

Look Back.

"But Moses' leadership is consistently marked by 20/20 vision - Exodus 20:20 vision, that is: 'Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you to keep you from sinning.'"

Look up.

"And if you want to know the most important thought on a person's heart, ask that person to express his or her thoughts in just ten words... The Ten Commandments that Moses received on Mount Sinai contain more than ten words. But in them you will find ten thoughts that are near and dear to the heart of God."

Look Ahead.

"It might be easy to conclude that God as described in the pages of the Old Testament is a God of dos and don'ts... But God often goes beyond telling his people what to do and tells them why they should do it: he wants what is best for them."    

Can I be honest with you?

It almost shocked me how 

incredibly detailed the tasks were that God gave to Moses for the Israelites.

For me,

it bordered on too detailed.

For some reason,

I always just went along with the little kid version of

"Oh, God gave Moses the ten commandments and the Israelites had to follow them, 

and then they built the Tabernacle for God!"

I didn't remember 

or realize

the overwhelming amount of detail and rules to it all.

But I kind of like this quote from yesterday's reading:

"If at times you find yourself wishing your God were a little more flexible, yielding more to your own desires and expectations, consider this: if God were small enough for you to control, he would be too small to help you in time of need."

I really liked that.

It reminded me that,

if God went with what I though,

the Tabernacle wouldn't have been as amazing as it was.

It wouldn't have been this grand, intricate

yet movable place 

that God wanted to dwell in.

It would have been designed by a simple mind 

and formed in a simple fashion.

Thanks be to God,

for being bigger and knowing more details 

than I could ever dream of knowing 

or want to know.

He truly is awesome.

<3MG

Walk 27

I really like Sonic.

I think it's awesome.

And I'm not quite sure why.

Maybe it's because of the bajillion drink choices you have?

That probably does it for me.

However,

I always feel like I've ingested a pound of grease after I leave there

... even if I only got a slushie.

Slushie?

Slushy?

Slush?

Whatever...

you get the point.

Good things on the 27th of January:

Savannah and her bf Bradley.

Travis... really? Who plays racquet ball in jeans?

Route 44 baby!

And this is because Savannah was asking how the devotions were laid out!

•  Wearing what I thought was quite a cute outfit. I love my boots! I love my shirt! I love my sweater! I love my Mom! I love my house! I love my dog! If you don't get what I'm probably badly attempting to refer to, you may want to click this.
• Getting to play receptionist again at work!
• Talking to Mr. Steve about important life things... a.k.a. my Walter, and his whatever.
• Playing racquet ball with Savannah, Bradley, and Travis.
• Going to Sonic with Savannah and Bradley.
• Learning that Savannah actually reads my blog! P.S. This is your shout out :)
• Actually remembering to take pictures.

After completely embarrassing me last night,

Walter decided to be decent today.

Only decent.

I don't understand why he must be so difficult though.

However, 

he could be worse.

So,

I do have something to thank God for.

Hey,

do you want to do something really meaningful in your life?

Do you want to better yourself for the good?

Would you like to have an

awesome 

radical

moving moment?

This can help.

Trust me.

Have I ever led you astray?

I'd prefer if you didn't answer that...

Wow.
So Walk 27 consisted of God giving Moses the instructions for how
He wanted His tabernacle to be built.
And,
that is a heck of a lot of instructions.
I think it's quite amazing how God wanted everything to be so
so
so
so
specific.
Down to the tiniest detail.
I think it says a lot about the character of God.
But honestly,
it was hard for me to visualize.
I think a picture representation
would've helped me understand what I was reading more.
But it was still pretty interesting.


<3MG


Oh!
P.S.
tomorrow I may go sort of look at apartments with Savannah.
But,
shhhhhhh....
I haven't told my parents yet.
Ha,
not that I'd move into one without their permission.
I
am
completely
dependent.
And,
I
have
no
money.
Therefore,
I would need them to pay for it.
Hopefully they'll go for it!
But remember,
shhhhhh!!! :)

Walk 26

This dry and desert land
I tell myself, “Keep walking on”
Hear something up ahead
Water falling like a song
An everlasting stream
Your river carries me home
Let it flow, let if flow

A flood for my soul
A well that never will run dry
I've rambled on my own
Never believing I would find
An everlasting stream
Your river carries me home
Let it flow, let it flow

Open the heavens
Come Living Water
All my fountains are in You
You're strong like a river
Your love is running through
All my fountains are in You

Come on, and rain down on us
Rain down on us, Lord

Man,

I really love that song. 

I've had it on repeat for hours.

Literally,

hours.

Good things on the 26th of January:

•  Having a good day of classes.
• Printing out paper that should have been printed out long ago.
• Not having to work.
• Getting some good advice from an old friend.
• Getting to wear my rainboots because it was drizzly today.
• Getting a letter from my Granny in the mail.

So remember all my smiley and frowny faces lately?

I won't put anymore on here.

And I'll try not to post any more mushy stuff.

It was silly,

and stupid.

It was just a guy.

There's a bazillion out there.

you only know him through class?
yeah
I see him like a lot though

just not enough to hold conversations

like

I noticed he had some fitness class that walks in the quad when I go to work

and I just saw today that apparently he has a class after me in the same room that i'm in
actually,

those are the only two times i see him besides class

but it actually ends up being like everyday

you need to actually hold a few conversations in real life then

can't just start texting him

...

i dont have his number
 you best get it
 and how do you expect me to do that?
 you need to bump out of your comfort zone and actually talk to him
 i know i know i do

I have never

ever
 developed any sort of... romantic interest in anyone out side of a pre established set of friends.
I don't work from nothing, and I've never tried because I've never been faced with that
i've asked multiple people for advice and i've googled it and found a wholle useful list
 well I'll be honest with you

usually when people come to me and tell me something like that, and it's pretty often, I just tell them to give up on it.

I wouldn't tell you to do that, but that's just how I feel about that sort of thing
why?
because I think that kind of thing is just hormones. I don't believe that anyone has any thing outside of a crush on someone unless they actually KNOW the person

After getting some good advice from my friend,

I decided not to pursue what I wanted.

This is my face for how I feel. It says, "oh well..."

I knew my friend was right.

I also have known that I'm going to end up marrying my best friend.

So whoever I date 

needs to at least be a trustworthy friend first.

I've not even had a real conversation with the guy I like.

So,

I'm not going to be worried about it anymore,

and I won't obsess about when I'll see him next.

It makes me a little sad,

but that's okay.

At least this time,

I can say that the guy was pretty worthy of my liking.

I just wish I knew how I could/could've made it work.

Oh, well.

Maybe,

just maybe,

I can be friends with him.

But,

I know it'll probably just be an acquaintance.

You know,

one where you just say hi in passing.

Because I am awesome,

and that's the type of friendships I make.

So Walk 26 was all about the civil and ceremonial laws

that God gave the people of Israel.

It was kind of interesting to read the laws that God had originally set for them to obey.

Sorry I can't write more,

Walter is being super farty.

I currently want to climb under my covers

and die of embarrassment.

I had to finally tell my roommate about him.

And it was awful.

After I told her,

the room was just quiet 

and Walter sat and farted 

really loudly 

for a good 10 minutes straight.

Kill.

Me.

Now.

Goodnight.

<3MG

Walk 25

OH 

MY GOSH.

Have any of you guys seen the Messy Mondays youtube videos?

They're the best...

annndddd they're freaking hilarious.

Actually if you're going to look them up,

they're under the Blimey Cow name.

You should look them up,

like

now.

I'll help.

You could click here,

or here,

or possibly here.

Hey, 

if you're super adventurous,

you could even click here.
You know you want to do it.
So,
be like Nike,
and just do it.


Good things on the 25th of January:

•  Feeling like I did pretty good on a quiz in stats.
• Doing an okay job on my speech.
• Getting to be the receptionist at work today! The actual receptionist had a doctors appointment, so I got to fill in! That means I sat on my computer for 99% of the time.
• Catching up on the Glee episode I missed last night.
• Watching the hilarious Messy Mondays videos. If you didn't click the links above, you should stop now and go click them. They'll be worth your time, I promise.
• Having enchilada leftovers that my mom made when I was home. Yes, they were still good!

Oh man oh man,
I really
really
hate public speaking.
Like,
I'm terrified.
Even if I was completely prepared,
the only way I couldn't really mess up a speech,
was if it was completely written down and I was reading off the card the entire time.
It's that bad.
No lie.
And speech class wasn't even that good today.
If you remember this post and this one also,
you will recall that I was using a happy face to describe how I was feeling about a...
certain...
subject.
Well,
this is how I feel about that subject in relation to the previously mentioned class:
:(
I wish I could tell you more,
but it's just not prudent.
But,
in relation to the emoticon face on its own,
it should be this:
:)
for the entire day.
Cryptic, I know.


So Walk 25 was about the ten commandments that God gave the Israelites.
They're rules to keep the Israelites safe and sound,
not to punish them.
You shall have no other gods before me.
Well, that's a pretty easy rule to keep. 
Well, unless you're raised Hindu or some religion where they have many gods.
But my God takes care of all things.
You shall not make idols.
This one is pretty self explanatory too.
If we were to make false idols,
that would mean that we don't trust God enough to think that He's all powerful and all we need.
You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.
This one really bothers me when people break it.
On the few occasions that it slips out of my mouth,
I feel instantly guilty and I know I've done something wrong.
The Lord's name is something precious that should be revered.
Remember the Sabbath and keep it holy.
I guess I'm pretty guilty at this one.
Sunday afternoons have always been a prime time for homework and laundry.
Honor your Father and your Mother.
By showing respect to your parents,
you're showing respect to God.
Your parents truly do know what's best for you,
especially if they're Christians and are raising you according to God's will.
You shall not commit murder.
Duh huh... it's a crime and just plain wrong. 
You shall not commit adultery.
Hey people of this generation,
this includes lusting after someone else's wife or girlfriend,
it's not just cheating on whomever.
You shall not steal.
Again, duh huh... it's wrong and it's a crime.
You shall not lie.
This causes a ton of problems.
Yeah, I've lied a lot.
And you feel like if you lie, that all your problems are solved.
In reality,
they're not.
You've just created more problems for either yourself or whomever you blamed for your lie.
You shall not covet.
I also have a hard time with this one.
If I got paid for every time I wished I could be someone else,
or have someone else's life,
have something that someone else has,
I'd be filthy rich.

So overall,
they're good rules to live by.
They'll keep you safe and sound,
just like God intended them to.


<3MG 

Since I didn't take any pictures today,
I'll leave you with awesome dance videos my siblings and I made!

 

This one ^ isn't as funny, but has humorous lines in it. ANIMAL CRAWL!

This one ^ is the best one by far

Walk 24

I must say,

the 24th of January was a pretty good day.

I feel like 

everyone

should have good days.

Good things on the 24th of January:

Yup, this is what you do when you're bored at work with nothing to do.

•  Having a good day of classes.
• Having a pretty easy day of work. I get to sit and do random stuff on my Ipod most of the time! I uploaded a bunch of free camera apps! I'm excited!
• Catching up on Pretty Little Liars once I got off work.
• Going to eat dinner with my roommate.
• Going to the BCM.
• Doing my stats homework at like 11 o'clock at night!

 The leader of the BCM

spoke this really amazing quote 

that he had heard from someone else.

It went something along the lines of,

"If God answered every prayer that you prayed yesterday,

how many people came to know Christ?"

That just kind of hit me.

Because,

I pray for family, people,

healing, and stuff,

but I guess I haven't worked in any prayers for saving people.

In my Sunday School class in high school,

we had this challenge.

We had to think of at least one person,

that we knew wasn't saved,

and we had to pray for them for a certain amount of time, and to pray for them to come to the Lord.

I,

of course,

failed at doing that.

However,

the person that I chose to pray for 

was one of my guy friends.

I think,

I'm going to try to start that up again.

I want to try to pray for him every day.

God can work miracles through prayers,

and I want to see what He'll do with mine.

So in Walk 24,

the Israelites are really whiny.

Like,

really whiny.

Moreover,

unbelievably,

they started to forget

or ignore

or whatever you want to call it,

they started to complain just days after their God had saved them.

Really?

But,

I guess we all do that.

We all experience great moments of God,

whether through an answered prayer,

a blessing,

a camp or retreat,

etc.,

and within a short bit after the awesome experience

we forget how we felt.

We forget the feeling we got 

when we saw God do something awesome.

We shouldn't ever forget what God has done for us,

or what He's doing for us too.

God provided food, 

water,

and protection 

to the Israelites when they were in the desert.

If he can solely take care of that many people,

imagine how He can bless you 

if you rely on Him

like the Israelites were forced to learn how to rely on Him.


<3MG

Walk 23

Hey,

hey you,

yeah,

you.

I really am

truly

sorry

about the mushy stuff.

It's kind of stupid now that I look back at it.

I need to remember to have more patience 

and learn to trust God more.

 I mean,

He is the one writing whatever love story I have,

right?

So He'll work things out,

right?

So I shouldn't sit there and obsess,

or feed the craziness

by listening to applicable Taylor Swift songs.

Lesson learned.

Or, 

at least recognized 

and I can hope I won't do it again.

No promises, but I'll try.

Also, 

I'm really sorry this post is two days late.

I am a 

very

lazy 

person.

Good things on the 23rd of January:

• Wearing daddy's old blazer at school. The thing is from his junior year of high school when they went to Europe! Awesome secondhand-ness!
• Having a good day of classes.
• I guess going to my first chemistry lab of the year should be included on this list, but for some reason,  I feel like it should be on a list of bad things. By itself.
• Buying a skirt to wear for when I give my speech. I needed one that was more... professional looking.
• Eating Fazoli's for dinner while I was out.

So Walk 23 was all about the Israelites 

finally

getting out of Egypt 

after years of hardship,

suffering,

and oppression.

God led them into the desert,

in order to avoid conflict with others 

that would make the Israelites turn back.

However, 

Pharaoh and the rest of Egypt felt that they made a mistake by letting them go.

So,

they pursued the Israelites.

When Pharaoh and his army caught up to the Israelites, 

they questioned if Moses had betrayed them.

But God was on their side.

He parted the waters of the Red Sea,

and the children of Israel got away safely.

However,

Pharaoh and his army,

they drowned.

I guess this walk shows us that,

God will do mighty things in order to make us,

and others, 

believe that He is the one true god.

Also,

it teaches us to have the utmost faith in Him.

I'm trying to have the utmost faith in Him.

I need it,

I want it,

  I'll spend my life in pursuit of it.

<3MG

Enchanted.

There I was again tonight,

forcing laughter, faking smiles

same old tired lonely place

Walls of insincerity, shifting eyes, and vacancy

vanished when I saw your face

All I can say was it was enchanting to meet you

Your eyes whispered how we met,

across the room your silhouette starts to make its way to me

The playful conversation starts,

counter all your quick remarks

like passing notes in secrecy

and it was enchanting to meet you

all I can say is I was enchanted to meet you

This night is sparkling,

don't you let it go

I'm wonder-struck, blushing all the way home

I'll spend forever wondering if you know

I was enchanted to meet you

The lingering question kept me up

2 A.M.

who do you love?

I wonder 'til I'm wide awake

And now I'm pacing back and forth 

wishing you were at my door

I'd open up, and you would say

Hey, it was enchanting to meet you

all I know is I was enchanted to meet you

This night is sparkling

don't you let it go

I'm wonder-struck, blushing all the way home

I'll spend forever wondering if you knew...

This night is flawless 

don't you let it go

I'm wonder-struck, dancing around all alone

I'll spend forever wondering if you knew

I was enchanted to meet you

This is me praying that

this was the very first page, not where the story line ends

My thoughts will echo your name until I see you again 

these are the words I held back as I was leaving too soon

I was enchanted to meet you

Please don't be in love with someone else

please don't have somebody waiting on you 

Please don't be in love with someone else

please don't have somebody waiting on you

This night is sparkling 

don't you let it go

I'm wonder-struck, blushing all the way home

 I'll spend forever wondering if you knew...

This night is flawless 

don't you let it go

I'm wonder-struck, dancing around all alone

I'll spend forever wondering if you knew

I was enchanted to meet you

Please don't be in love with someone else

please don't have somebody waiting on you

I'm sorry for the gushy stuff,

but this blog is for my feelings.

And right now,

I need to get these out.

And I also apologize for not writing yesterday,

and I can't guarantee I'll write tonight, since I have the BCM to go to tonight.

... and you stood there in front of me

just close enough to touch

close enough to hope you couldn't see what I was thinking of

Drop everything now, meet me in the pouring rain

kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain

'cause I see sparks fly, whenever you smile

... and lead me up the staircase,

won't you whisper soft and slow

I'm captivated by you baby, like a fireworks show

Drop everything now, meet me in the pouring rain

kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain

'cause I see sparks fly, whenever you smile...

gahh...

how?

How do you move out of one relationship to another?

I mean,

it's been months since my last relationship 

(clarification - I don't want it back, I wanted it to end)

but how do you do it?

How do you even possibly imagine that someone can know you so well again?

How can someone be that good of a friend again?

How do you know that you'll find someone who'll love all your flaws again?

How do you find someone you can trust completely?

How do you find someone who you can be totally weird with,

and they love you for it?

And if you think you've found someone who could do all that,

how do you go about trying to find it with them?

How do you tell them that,

hey,

they might just be the

little bit of

perfect

that you've been looking for?

How do you do it without 

being ultra-creepy?

Like Michael from the The Office?

How?

Will I ever?

Even if I think I've found a potential,

how do I even talk to them?

How do I relate to them

that I think I may love them

even though I don't know them?

Okay,

I don't love the person.

I'm just crushing really hard.

But,

I think he could be awesome.

I think we could get along splendidly.

How do I get to know him?

How do I get him to know me?

How do I make this one count?

How?

I'm not that great at being a girl, if you can tell.

<3MG

Walk 22

Today

I had to leave my family

and come back to college.

I love visiting them.

In fact,

I just plain love them.

They're incredibly awesome.

And I don't think

how much I truly loved them

or how awesome they were

until I wasn't with them every day.

How am I ever supposed to leave them?

How am I ever supposed to be completely independent?

I used to have dreams of moving to a big city and having a fabulous life,

but then I became a little practical.

I realized that I 

a) don't have a talent that would take me to New York or L.A.

b) absolutely hate city traffic. Not as much as the interstate, but it's still frustrating.

c) I couldn't be that far away from my family.

I feel sorry for my dad.

His mom is old,

and I knew it made him sad when we would have to leave after visiting her,

but I never truly realized how much it must hurt.

We only see Granny a couple times a year.

Imagine only seeing your mom a couple times a year

and also realizing that she's not going to be around much longer.

That must feel awful.

I don't think I'm going to complain about possibly spending extra days at Granny's anymore.

I want my dad to have all the time on the Earth with his mom.

There is no one 

on this planet

that I love more than my parents.

I could not imagine life without them.

That would be the worst.

Man, I should've gone to school in my hometown.

That way, I could've gone to school and not lived at home

but still be close enough to pop over a couple times a week.

My kids will be so lucky.

They'll be the ones who have lunch every Sunday with their grandparents.

I'll make sure of it.

Because I will want to see my parents every week.

Maybe,

I can marry somewhat rich

so I can live in the Franklin area.

It's SOO gorgeous there.

And it's close to both Nashville and Murfreesboro.

I could hopefully find an interior designing job in Nashville, right?

I hope so.

I guess I also have to take in consideration of whatever my future husband might want.

You know,

granted I have one.  ;)

Good things on the 22nd of January:

I love this place so incredibly much. NBC :)

To clarify, that is an empty sparkling cider bottle. Don't ask me why he has it.

•  Going to church this morning and hearing a good message on the sanctity of life. Happy sanctity of life Sunday everyone!
• Having a family lunch. Usually on Sundays, we eat sporadically so it was nice to all sit down together.
• Filming an awesome half hour video with my siblings. This turned out to be very bad though because my Ipod ran out of power and the video didn't save. So we painted beards and acted stupid for nothing. But it was fun :)
• Buying small kits to grow strawberries and forget-me-nots in the dollar section at Target!
• Coming back to college from my weekend home.
• Thinking.... nevermind. This good thing I can't say out loud. So whenever I think it and it makes my day good, I'll just put this: :)

 So Walk 22 was about the final 

and biggest plague

that God sent on Egypt.

And this plague was big.

It was the daddy of all plagues.

Since Pharaoh and the Egyptians weren't listening to Moses and Aaron,

God killed all the firstborn in their homes.

Actually, 

God killed all the firstborns in the houses that weren't marked by lamb's blood.

God gave 

very,

very very very

specific instructions for how the Israelites were supposed to go about sacrificing the lamb.

It was pretty cool to see how God worked His ways to bless His people.
