We end up heartbroken or unsatisfied. I need make sure I to look to God to fill those desires, find my identity in Him alone.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">"These things-the beauty, the memory of our own past-are good images of what we really desire; but if they are mistaken for the thing itself, they turn into dumb idols, breaking the hearts of their worshippers. For they are not the thing itself; they are only the scent of a flower we have not found, the echo of a tune we have bit heard, news from a country we have never yet visited." C.S Lewis</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">I do not want to be of this world, but it's scary how easy it is to get caught up in worldly possessions and society's definition of success. </span><br />

C.S. Lewis<br /><br />Specifically now I am struggling with this because I am stuck it what feels like limbo. I am a planner and want to take action; it would be easy for me to try and move forward by seeking to achieve earthly "goals," but I am going to try to turn to God and trust in His plan instead of trying to make my own.</span></span><br />

I've taken <i>quite</i> a long hiatus because life seemed to just get busy, but I missed having the creative outlet. Recently I learned the power of humility, transparency, and sharing your story. We are social creatures and sharing, both the good and the bad, allows for us to connect to each other to grow and find support. SO, I'm baaack.<br />
<br />
I recently graduated college and definitely have been slapped by reality. Every bit of me is ready for the next chapter in life, but I have been humbled by God's plan for me. I've learned that my future is unknown to me and is going to remain that way until God is ready to reveal what He has in store. I may be <i>very</i> unsure about what He has planned, but there is one thing I am absolutely certain of: I want to completely give my life to glorify God.<br />
<br />
I recently started reading <i>The Weight of Glory</i> by C.S. Lewis and once again he's rocking my world. It has become so clear that it is my duty as a Christian to share the love of Jesus Christ with everyone I encounter. One of my favorite verses says it best,<br />
<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">This journey will continue to be one of self-discovery as I grow closer with God and as He reveals the plans He has for me. I am excited to be able to document my adventures, lessons learned, and share God's blessings!</span></span><br />

<br /></div>
so i've finally jumped on the bandwagon and got a white iphone 4s--my poor droid was dropped many times and had <i>many </i>cracks to prove it. sprint just recently got the iphone (friday, I believe?) and with my upgrade it wasn't TOO expensive for me to make the switch. a friend of mine asked me which i liked better my iphone or droid so i thought i'd do a quick comparison on here! i had an Evo (4g) so definitely not a bad phone, I actually really liked it. granted i'm still learning everything on the iphone i thought i knew it enough to compare the two:<br />

putting aside the fact that the iPhone is the "cool" phone to have right now, they're both pretty great phones-you just have to decide what aspects of a phone you want more-do you like designing it to fit you or would you like to use it as an ipod? because other than that they're pretty similar</div>

I can count on my hands how many hours of sleep I got the entire weekend--but definitely worth it! I got to spend so much time with my incredible young life girls, hear an amazing speaker, listen to an incredible musician {<a href="http://www.leeyounger.com/">Lee Younger</a>}, laugh at great skits, and spend time with God in such a beautiful place!<br />
<br />
i think i learned just HOW much I am going to have to rely on Him in my life and I am TOTALLY okay with that--and I got to see Him impact so many people around me-such a beautiful sight to see :)<br />

okay. so when I got the email about doing this review/giveaway I was really excited, but also apprehensive. because I'm not going to just advertise anything on my blog in hopes to gain from it-I have to legitimately like it. I was scared I'd accept the offer, try out the program, not like it and then be stuck! THANKFULLY due to the <i><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f9cb9c;">amazingness</span></b></i> of this software this review will be easyyyy!<br />
<br />
now on to the review. it is a <a href="http://www.mymemories.com/digital_scrapbooking_software">digital scrapbook software</a>, but you can also make videos, cards <i>and</i> invitations <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">{too bad i didn't have it a couple weeks ago when we had our tea party or else we could have had awesome invites}</span> I was on the yearbook staff in high school so this is right up my alley! what I love is how simple it is to operate-the buttons are clear, editing is simple. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">{which is great for me, I don't have the time <b>or</b> patience to figure things out}</span> I've taken multiple classes on photoshop and I <i>still </i>can't figure the thing out, this took me two seconds to look it all over and I knew how to do everything. another cool thing is every so often there are FREE new backgrounds, kits, and embellishments that can be downloaded to the <a href="http://www.mymemories.com/digital_scrapbooking_software">software</a> that automatically add to your options-there are also ones you can buy {real scrapbooking is just such an expensive hobby-this is much more efficient} once you've made something you can get your card, invite, or book printed! for my one year anniversary with clint I had a photobook made on shutterfly-which was fun, but this you can personalize SO much more, it will look much nicer, and it's only a one time payment {unless you win the giveaway and then it's free}!<br />

it is called <a href="http://www.mymemories.com/digital_scrapbooking_software">My Memories Suite</a> Digital Scrapbook (version 2) and is the number <b>one</b> rated scrapbooking software on amazon! We announced to our kids yesterday we will be going to Crooked Creek Ranch {young life camp} for summer camp this year and out of excitement {I've never been to colorado!} I made a fake invite using the software--keep in mind this only took me five or ten minutes-so imagine what you could do with more time and creativity!<br />

<br />
so we got red spray paint, painted the swing which gave it new life :) we got some <i>crazy</i> super glue and fixed the chimenea--good as new! I wish I had before pictures, but here are some afters:<br />

yeah, <u>me</u> <b>too</b>. <i>but</i> i'm in a water aerobics class this semester, i needed to fill up some hours and never have taken a class just for FUN. so i picked water aerobics thinking: something very different, water, fun, active, easy--well. it's definitely fun, i mean i get to be in a pool as a class--but <i>sheesh</i>, i am grasping for air at the end. i knew this would be an "active" class, but boy i am dead afterwards.<br />
then i leave class and ride my bike home--at this rate i am going to be in <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f9cb9c;">great</span> shape by the end of the semester--that's the goal at least.<br />

ha thought that was cute&appropriate for me--what do yall do for fun workouts? because i hate working out--so things like water aerobics is a good/fun way for me to be active. any suggestions?<br />
<br />
oh&&tomorrow i leave for SharpTop Cove--a Younglife camp for leader weekend--we get to be "campers" for the weekend, there are going to be amazing speakers, worship, surprises, and free time to enjoy the company of 540 leaders throughout Tennessee :) want to see the some pictures of the beautiful place i get to go?<br />

sad right? so i've tried to stay home as much as possible to get her adjusted. time flies! it's been a year since i transfered schools and it blows my mind how much my life has <i>changed</i><i>. </i>looking back on this time last year i would have NEVER thought this is where i'd be. I came to this school spur of the moment for my pre-vet major (clearly not my major now)--who would have thought that i would have joined younglife, found God, met the most amazing people, realized how much of a MESS i am but love it, and grown in my faith? not me. i was never a crazy kid--actually an annoying goody two shoes probably. i had great friends and a great a family yet i still felt like i was missing something. I had a God shaped hole in my heart :) (someone told me that and i thought it was so cute/accurate) i wouldn't trade anything for this past year, probably the <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f6b26b;">hardest</span></b> in my <i>life</i> so far, but definitely most rewarding. i can't describe how excited i am for this year to come because i am now <u style="font-weight: bold;">living</u> with my best friends who push me towards Christ on a daily basis. can i just say how INCREDIBLE they are? God has <b>SO</b> much in store for us this year :)<br />
<br />
okay okay, enough rambling. i just want to share some of my story. and how i thought i had my life together: great friends, family, grades, not wild--i thought that was it--my priorities were messed up and i didn't even realize it. i thought if i was doing great in school, successful, and nice i was perfect--but i still went to bed feeling like i was missing something, lonely. and still do when i lose my fire for Christ. but i just know when i surround myself with Him i have NEVER been happier. i have SO much more growth and learning left, but this much i know: God will always be here for me through my journey and there is nothing more rewarding than that. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f6b26b;">the best lesson i have learned is that nothing on this planet is more important than God and that should reflect in everything i do--in return He will give me <i>everything</i> i need. </span></b><br />
<br />
OKAY DONE. anyone have stories about growing up, lessons, or verses to share? i have some <i>fun</i> stories to tell you guys about these past couple weeks--and SO much coming up in the next few weeks! so check back--i will actually be posting now ;)<br />

they are ALL amazing and i <i>cannot</i> wait<i> </i>until the next! {i think it comes out around summer 2012} i never saw the movie for something borrowed, so i don't know if it's any good--don't base the book off the movie if it wasn't good because the books are great. she somehow ties a character into each book--a small role so they aren't <i>really</i> connected, but enough to think it was clever. </div>

i typically like fun/light hearted reads because during the year reading is only something i can do in my free time so i like it to be relaxing, BUT if you insist, i am open for anything :) SO recommendations?!</div>

SO. i'm going to <i>try</i> <u>something</u>. but the thing is i can't stay motivated to save my life. there's more <b>junk</b> food in this house than the willy wonka factory. i'm basically set up for failure ha<br />

so i've been doing research {google} trying to find good programs or anything really. haley {roommate} has P90X and i've watched her do it before, and it's just not my cup of tea. looks like a lot of muscle building/upper body stuff. but i've also been told insanity is better for the overall body? anyone used it? what do YALL do to stay in shape? i <b style="color: #f6b26b;">love</b> food. can't seem to resist it. would appreciate some input! i'm only home for two more weeks--it should be easier when i'm back at school because i'm more active/have more control/do my own grocery shopping.<br />

haha. big dreams :) clearly from my touristy selections, i don't know what i'm talking about but how amazing would that be? i really want to. we'll see :) any europeans/well traveled people out there with an opinion?<br />
<br />
on another note, sad news. they cancelled desperate housewives. now i'm aware this show is a tad bit dramatic--but for some reason, i like it-what a bummer. off to fall asleep watching glee :)<br />

<br />
now on to my obsession: i realize i'm late jumping on the bandwagon, but i am ob<i>sessed</i> with GLEE.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

i spent ALL wednesday watching season one. it's amazing. before i had only seen the britney spears episode and thought "wow this show is pointless" but watching it from the beginning, i <i style="color: #f6b26b; font-weight: bold;">love</i> it. netflix only has season one, so i am going to have to watch the rest on my computer, but definitely worth it. any other gleeks out there? :)<br />
<br />
i was supposed to go to Tampa today with my sister, but due to my bad memory and prior arrangements, i had to back out last minute--i'm sure she'll have a blast though!<br />
<br />
oh&&i made a hair appointment on the 18th--so i won't let you know what i decided &&will surprise y'all with pictures :) {unless it looks awful then ignore this and i will pretend it never happened :)) }<br />

but my <i>honest</i> opinion of golf? <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f6b26b;">boooringgg</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"> {no offense if any of you are golfers} it's a peaceful environment--i give you that, but what a boring/frustrating sport. haha and SO many rules! geesh. </span></b><br />
<br />
so i started a new workout regimen today--i'm on a mission :) i'm going to try it out for a week or so && if i like how it's going i'll post the details! time to start big brother!<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>{warning longest post ever because of so many pictures}</b></div>
<br />
it was this day four years ago {a few days before my 16th birthday} and i was at a friends house having game night. clint stopped by {and i had <i>no</i> idea who he was} i was getting ready to leave and reminded everyone of my birthday dinner the next night--i felt bad and said to clint "hey--you can come too!" thinking i was just being polite--no way this complete stranger will show up--sure enough the dinner rolls around and clint's there.<br />
<br />
we went swimming that night and i kept getting looks when he was talking to someone--then they'd come up and say "he thinks your cute" blah blah blah--you know how it is when you're in high school. everyone told him to give up because i didn't date anyone {glad he didn't listen!} then we play a game of chicken and he asked to be my partner {oh my gosh i was <i>shy--</i>you know me and my friends talked about it ALL that night--our conversation went something like this: "oh my gosh he asked YOU--he sooo likes you, do you like him?"}<br />
<br />
that night i got texts from our mutual guy friends asking me what i thought {i'm no idiot--i knew clint was sitting right next to them} so i played it cool. clint started "randomly" showing up to a lot of our events {he went to the enemy school-ha so it wasn't common} homecoming comes around and i ask him--when he comes outside to see my dress one night, it's <i>really</i> awkward--as we're saying our goodbyes he leans in to kiss me for the first time and i kid you not it was the worlds fastest kiss--more like a head-butt, and i slammed the door and drove off as clint ran back inside hahaha. most embarrassing moment ever.<br />
<br />
let me just say. i wasn't boy crazy, clint was/is my first (and only) boyfriend. so kissing at the time? yeah not my specialty--i didn't get my first kiss until going into my junior year. i was NERVOUS okay? ha. we had lots of "downs" in the beginning because of different lifestyles and just growing up {aka-i was kind of a goody two-shoes didn't/don't drink, party, kind of played hard to get and was picky--well i just wasn't boy crazy and wasn't going to settle! ha} BUT! he eventually asked me out {for real} at dinner {olive garden} and had a little note on my plate when it was served. cheesey? yes. but still so cute :) we both found God, matured, fell in love and have been together for almost four years :) {January 19, 2008} we are SO blessed to have each other, he is my BEST friend and i wouldn't want it any other way :) want some pictures from along the way? {tons of pictures.}<br />
