Hmmmm

I don't really know what I want to write about. Just feel like writing so here it goes. Looking outside my window, I see white. Really? White? It's March!! I'm so sick of the snow and cold, it's currently 9 degrees, our high today was I think 20! Way too cold for me. I got so cold in the 20 mintues, yes 20 minutes cleaning the snow off my car, that my hands were frozen. I got up to my floor in my dorm, and fainted my hands were that cold. No good! I just wonder how long this can last. Supposedly it's suppose to get nice by Friday and be 47 which is like summer weather. Maybe I should break out my shorts?

Ok, enough of the venting on the weather. Life is going good, can't complain really. I've got a roof over my head, food to eat, an education to learn about, friends and family who love me, and gas in my car to get home. It would be nice if my hives reactions would stop bothering me. I am still getting the reactions almost daily, even with the 3 different medicines the Dr. has me on. He unfortunately has no clue. People tell me I need Dr. House, if only he existed in real life!

I still always think about life in general. Where am I headed on this journey? Where does God want to lead me on this path? Am I following His lead? If not, where did I take the wrong turn? Right now I want to get certified in personal training, then after I graduate and right before grad school, I want to take the CSCS-Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialists exam. This will just give me more credentials, and gets me more into the fitness arena. Then I want to continue my education in grad school in exercise science, as I've mentioned in previous entries. After grad school, I feel like I'll want to either get back into the classroom, or get a career with personal training, or do both!

As for now, I have 2 more years left here at WSU. It seems like forever, especially when I have so many friends graduating in 7 weeks. All of my hf'ers-health fitness kids, are graduating in May and doing their student teaching in the fall. Makes me jealous for sure! But then I have to remind myself that they are older than me and my time here isn't done yet.

Last Thursday, I went to CRU-Campus Crusades for the first time. I really enjoyed it and got something out of the message. I didn't realize how much I miss the fellowship, music and message I get when I attend church or youth groups. I also learned more about how to share my faith with others. This is something I've always wanted to do, but wasn't sure how to do it. CRU did a couple of sessions on this, and I know feel equipped with the tools to do it. I know the first time may be hard but it'll be worth it in the end. I just am praying for God to tell me who I need to go to first. There are so many people in the world who need the Word, but I know I have people in my life who are in Pullman who also need the Word. I'm just curious on how God will use me.

I know God has a plan for me and my life, but sometimes it's hard to remember that. He knows what He's doing, whether we know it or not. This includes everything from what career he wants me to embark on to who that "special one" will be. It can be hard to trust that things will fall into place in the end, but with God on my side, I know they will. As Gary Allen puts it, "Life ain't always beautiful, but it's a beautiful ride!"
