Its been running rampent throughout my fb feed... the missing of Bible School. Oh man I really miss my friends from that place. It somewhat sucks when you're the only person in a state and everyone lives so far away... *ahem* CANADA. Its odd to think that this time last year I had no clue who these people were and now they are some of the best people in my life. I can't really fathom what my life would be if I hadn't met them. So it was no wonder that when I was asked where I wanted to be for my birthday it was spain and the people I wanted to be with they were definately in the top 5.
But this seperation from my friends, Bible School and those lovely other ones, even though it has been hard has been okay. I've been going to a new church, had very interesting subbing expierences (elementary school is always fun), and leaned on God way more than I ever had in my life. Just today when I knew I had to teach kindergarteners and then have to go home to my dog being put down I thought of James 1:2-4. Oh these trials that have been put in my way... and the seeking to find joy within them. Those kids were cute (yet always talking... apparently I got the hard class) and I know that my dog is in a better place (something that was brought up at bible school and I'm choosing to believe... it makes me feel better). Jesus is always there no matter the situation or how small it is. His love is what makes me get up in the morning.
The talk around this house lately has been my birthday... yup a big 26. Its on a friday and I just have not want to plan something to do. I told my mom that I want someone else to buy me yarn, go somewhere interesting, take pictures, and play some soccer... It sounds vaguely like what happened in Spain. I know I can't go back to that place in time but I'm hoping that sometime soon I'll be able to have some carefree time with my friends... so anyone wanna hang out the second weekend of December? I'm feeling the need for adventure.
