Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Romans 12:1-2

Oh, the feeling you get on Monday morning when you realize Friday will probably never arrive. You know, that college student realization that makes you almost cry? Well, I am a living testament that Friday actually will arrive - It's Friday night ... Praise the Lord. I'm done with my classes for the weekend now so I'm in my room, playing Taylor Swift songs on my guitar and enjoying the opportunity of doing absolutely zero homework.

I made my first ever soufflé in food lab this week. Well - I assisted, I can't take full credit for that absolute work of genius. It was light, foamy, creamy, and every other wonderful descriptive word you can imagine :) I'm so proud we were able to master such a picky and tedious French dish.

This week has been pretty crazy. I was quite positive that the test I took today was going to mark the hour of my execution; death row was calling my name in the form of my American Experience exam. As it turns out, Mr. Kneeshaw was feeling quite generous and the test wasn't as bad as I thought - So typical. I always freak out for nothing. Gotta be consistent - you know. Thankfully my constant focus on Federalism and the War of 1812 has finally ceased. This is a work weekend for me, so while the typical college student catches some extra precious minutes of sleep, my alarm is ringing at 4:30am. At that hour, there is absolutely nowhere a human should be except still in bed drooling on their pillow. Yeah - I'm filling the sanitizer sink and putting the dish machine together. Think of me while you're tucked under your warm blankets!

Hasn't this weather been magical? There's no better word to describe it. Thank you Jesus :). 70 degrees in mid-February is a miracle. My flip-flops are finally seeing the light of day once more.
There's an extraordinary sunset happening outside my dorm at the moment. I love having a West facing room - watching the sun set is fantastic, especially since I live on a sweet overlook. Don't be too jealous.
So that's it. Thanks for reading my awkward posts. Have an absolutely magical weekend.
Peace out from Memorial 222

  1. Wow you really have turned over a new leaf of positivity! :) Tell Jeshana that she is having a good influence on you! By the way I'm so proud to have a sister who knows how to make a souffle... I'll be telling everyone.
