Buckets

So, I recently made a bucket list (or a list of things I would like to do before I die) and me being a regular coffee drinker (I'm addicted) I put on there that I would like to be able to walk into a coffee shop and they know ecactly what it is I want. My, usual that is. And at my school we have a coffee shop. I do buy a medium white chocolate mocha with no whipped cream everyday. So, I think it's only a matter of time before they realize it. I can't wait!

It was funn making my bucket list. I think it's something everyone should try. Cause now there are things I am definitely focusing on more. It's my top 25. Cause that's all I could cone up with.

1) publish a book
2) attend the world cup (at least once)
3) keep a garden (flowers)
4) backpack across Europe
5) become fluent in 1 or more languages
6) be licensed as a misionary
7) get married
8) be a mother
9) learn to ride horses
10) see wildlife up close
11) bike across Kansas
12) paint every room in my house a different color
13) read the bible Genesis-Revelation in a year
14) be part of a missions team
15) to be known at a cafe that everytime I walk in they know my drink
16) to not be rich with money or earthly things
17) to fall in love
18) everyday show the love of God to others
19) play hockey for fun
20) see Hillsong United live in concert
21) eat a large double cheesburger with large plate of cheesy fries and a sprite.
22) have a closet or something filled with jackets
23) to help in whatever way I can
24) go to a chiefs game
25) give all I can for someone.

There. Now go make Yours :) it'll be worth it. Btw this is in no specific order...just kinda wrote it all down.

A week of things

Well, this is pretty flippin awesome because I am updating from my iPhone WHILE at school on my break!! :)

So I can actually say that my week has been better than Peter Parker getting biten by a spider. Here are my reasons:
1) God has been a big part. Of this week (notthat he isn't any other time) and has made himself known to me again and again (defenitely NOT complaining here) and I loved itso much.
2) my school had this awesome campus kick-off thing they do every semester and I went to it and had an awesome time getting my face drawn, taking pictures with this guy I met that day (he is Australian), seeing more people I knew but didn't realize they went here, and meeting one of my old friends I've known since freshman year!!! It was awesome.
3) I got hired at build a bear!!! :) :)
4) I absolutely love jackets and I got 3 new ones memorial day :) one of which is really soft an comfortable :)
5) I am in love with God. I don't think I could ever say that enough.


Ok so in 2nd Samuel when It said David danced before the Lord. King David. a king. Dancing before the Lord. Because he loved him. He humbled himself before the Lord. Which is really awesome because yesterday while waiting for Spanish to start I myself wanted to do that. Dance before the Lord. I wanted nothing but to be near Him and be surrounded by his presence and love and glory. To follower after that I had a 'God moment' or in other words God made himself known to me again. It wasn't big and grand but it Was lovely to me and beautiful. My favorite moments are with him. When he makes me smile or fills my heart with sudden love.

That is all.
