Sort-of-a rough week.

I have to admit that I have not been spending enough time with God. I really think that is the predicament of the whole stressful-week situation.

First off, I had studied SO much for my final test in Theology, only to get a B+ on it, as well as my portfolio. So my final grade was a B+. I was SO bummed out. I really wanted to bump my GPA up! Even if it was by a point or two...Ugh, whatever.

I also have been slacking it in English...that class is so easy that I didn't study for my midterm at all and still got a B+. But that upset me. I don't want a B in that class! I deserved that anyways. Sigh. When I got my Theo final I realized that I couldn't get a dumb grade like that in one of my strongest classes. So I think that kicked me in the butt and now I know that I must move on and push myself because nobody else will.
Bum. Er.

Good news, yes? One cool thing that happened last Wednesday was the arrival of Blake Mycoskie (TOMS Shoes!) at our university for the Lin Great Speaker Series! How cool is that?! I adore the man and I took a few pictures of him giving us the lecture. For those of you who don't know, here's the TOMS shoes regular commercial:




My lame attempt to take a picture of him. Just a tad blurry. =/

Ok, continuing on to another subject...Thursday was my roomate's birthday, so we went out with a few friends to Cheddars. It was alot of fun, just socializing and relaxing after the a long and dragging week. Then came Big Sis Discovery on Friday night. It's a night with Alpha Phi in which the new baby phis get to see who their big sister is, whom in turn buys them hundreds of dollars worth of stuff and goodies for them!
This is my roommate's Christian's stuff with Megan, her big, when Christian had no clue that she was her Big yet!

I went through that last semester, and I remember how exciting the whole moment was for me! I was so happy for our babies. Who won't be babies anymore by the end of this week. Initiation time!:)

Oh and this is my family H.P. (below Christian and I), on Big Sis night; we're the biggest family now in Alpha Phi! Yay!


 

The roomie, and also baby phi, and I were taking pictures in the bathroom (I know, typical) under the new light that our suit-mates put up. It's super bright!

Just a random thought, if any of you cared. :)

 

 

My Big and I didn't miss an opportunity to take silly pictures like ALWAYS:

I have been so busy that I have not been able to post new things on etsy =(. But not to worry, I will soon, promise! But here is one of my most recent items, what do you all think?

 

  Today I finally got to talk to Mike on the phone. Very happy about that. We both let out some frustrations on future choices like colleges, financial things, and blah blah. We needed to talk about that though, it has been a struggling topic for both of us. Other than that, I must know that God is taking care of us and that we need to keep Him in our lives. Or else crap like this happens and I let it bug me. But it shouldn't!:)

Another great thing....My best friend Flor had her baby this week!! Ah! I am a GODMOTHER!!:)) God Bless that beautiful creation! Anyways...:)

Visit my shop at etsy! Any suggestions? Just convo me through here! Have a great day!:)
