what i didnt post last night...

last night when i was writing the other blog i had some things on my heart to share but wasn't quite ready to share. this morning i woke up and HAD to blog about it.

last night was youth group. i havent been there in 2 weeks and i was oober excited to get back and see some of my friends. i even surprised somebody who i was texting the night i landed ;) she was totally surprised! anywayz, i love youth group. i know, i know...im 18 and starting a higher education in the fall but i've still got a young soul and a heart for teens.

youth group itself starts at 630p but most teens show up before that and hang out in the teen center. well we started with worship that lasted about 35 minutes but it REALLY lasted til 930p. needless to say, God showed up! Danielle was going to share a message but God had His own plans and decided to take over.

we were just praying and loving on Him and then he came and wrapped His arms around us. i stepped out to speak w. a friend and then came back and sat towards the back and just got ensumed by His presence. that was 8p so from 8p to 930p i was praying for/with other girls and just worshipping God.

i must say, feeling that warm embrace and peace of His love is just amazing. i long for that everyday and i have to remember that i have to seek His face and stay in His word each day for that. its just soo amazing that words can't really explain the way it feels. oh how much i LOVE Jesus!!! below is a video that i watched yesterday morning. going into youth group i was praying that we would see more and more of Jesus in the mirror every morning instead of ourselves...check it out.



have a good rest of the week people. today's thursday and saturday's the 4th!! woot-woot ;)

much love,

what?!

yea...that's what im sayin'! i was working @ Subway to save up money for Master's this fall. well, the manager decided that he hired too many people and then decided to "let me go." not only that but the person that i helped train is still working there. may i ask why?!

anyway, i have to get another job or else this fall i wont have any spending money because any money i do have needs to be saved for the missions trip. its all okay though because i know God has it all under control. im not freaking out about it but im not slackin' either.

on another note, graduation is only 2 weeks away! i am ecstatic!! no, i haven't written the essay yet but i will. i had all the time in the world yesterday because it was raining so i was couped up inside. i had two choices; i could write the essay or i could watch some TV (which i never do). i chose the latter. ;)

today, im going downtown to see if anyone is hiring. it's sunny right now and the temperature is only supposed to go up to 69 so it looks like it's going to be a GREAT day! i hope it stays nice because im walking. oh and i got my hair cut a few weeks ago!! i'll post pictures either later today or tomorrow. im sorry, i totally forgot to show you guys ;)

Sunday is MC graduation. what that means is that all the Masters Commission students that were enrolled this past year (08-09) are graduating. some aren't coming back and some are coming back but not as students. the rest, are gonna be students w. me!! it's gonna be kind of crazy because since i've been here (late march) i've come to know a lot of the students very well. it's so sad to see them leave! im gonna miss them...A LOT!!

well, gotta run...have a good weekend ppls. i'll post pix later. <3

p.s.- today i listened to a whole Jars of Clay CD...and liked it! i only liked a few songs before but now, i think i like them a whole lot more! ;)

to pass each individual test, i had to get at least a 410 and an average of 450 to pass the whole thing.

Writing- i scored higher than 31% of graduating high school seniors - 450/800
Reading- i scored higher than 99% of graduating high school seniors - 720/800
Math- i scored higher than 82% of graduating high school seniors - 590/800
Science- i scored higher than 97% of graduating high school seniors - 690/800
Social Studies- i scored higher than 82% of graduating high school seniors - 590/800

Average: 608

GUESS WHAT?!

I DID IT!!!

i passed my !!! i got my results back yesterday morning. i am soo happy...i am officially a high school graduate people!! for the whole test collectively, i got a 608 average. to pass the test one would need at least a 450 average. to pass each individual test, there's 5 of them, one would need at least a 410. the following are the scores i received: writing- 450, reading- 720, science- 690, social studies- 590, & math- 590.

when i called for my scores, the woman on the other end of the phone explained to me that i would be receiving a packet of information. in that packet there will be details about my certificate and graduation. before i hung up the phone, she said that she would see me at graduation.!! do you know what that means?!? this means that i will have an official ceremony and everything. at least, that's what im guessing!!! i must say, knowing that i'm a graduate, it does feel good ;)

now i will spend my days working @ Subway and saving money for extras this year. by extras i mean spending money for masters commission! thats right, i got accepted into New England Masters Commission (formerly known as Seacoast Masters Commission)!!!!! my tuition is already taken care of so now im just working to save money. im soo happy that God has brought me here. it has been quite a ride but as my friend Kimberly once told me..."you've found the missing puzzle piece to life!"
