Holy Smokes! I didn't realize it had been so long since I had posted anything on here! Honestly I don't even remember what I have told you and what I haven't.
Basically my life is jam packed full of busyness. And I love it! For the past two weeks I haven't been able to add ANY spontaneous activities to my schedule. I literally have calendar on my computer that has every minute of every day of my life planned out. And the last two weeks have been wall to wall "appointments." And the same is true for the next two weeks.
So what do I do all the time? Well let me tell you!
Pretty much, my life revolves around my college group (8:08) from Christ Community Church. This year I have gotten a lot more involved and been extremely faithful to attend every week. I LOVE IT! Last year it was good, but it was so big that I never really made any friends and kind of felt like a little bit of a loner, but this year I have SO many friends. Friends that I actually spend time with and do life with. Monday nights I attend a Journey Group which is basically a small group form of 8:08. Tuesday nights I spend at Jared & Kerri's (the college pastor & wife) making dinner for a random group of 8:08 kids. This is such a great idea because it makes kids get to know people that they normally wouldn't and it helps them feel involved. I'm the only student that gets to come every week though. Perks of being related to the college pastor! Thursday is the actual 8:08 meeting and afterward we go to Old Chicago for half priced appetizers with about 1/3 of the students. After that the 8:08 students that go to UNO have a movie night that I attend (generally starts around 1 A.M.). Sunday I go to church and we have a special 8:08 section where all of the college students sit.

So yeah... it's a good thing I love those kids because I spend A LOT of time with them.
My church and college group have been such a blessing and encouragement and I thank God every day for them.
