Withdrawl

Two straight weeks of being together constantly. 5 days of relying on facebook, texting, and phone calls. Withdrawl. I was doing ok til I came down to play pool. Last time I was down here playing pool was before he left. Gahhh I miss him! I need to practice so when he comes back I can own him. Well not really, more like so I don't fail miserably. As for foosball, I'm fairly sure I'll still get beat there. 2 1/2 weeks to go. Has it really only been 5 days? So little time so much we'll want to do when he's back in town. I might be going to the wedding he's dj-ing that sunday, we'll see how things turn out and if he's allowed to bring a guest. That then of course requires me finding something to wear. Easier said than done.

I'm currently on the phone with him...sorta. His mom called like 2minutes after he called me so he's talking to her and I'm chillin on the other line. Annie is on my lap trying to sit between me and my computer. Not working so well. I may just hang up and have him call me back since it's using minutes. I hung up and texted him saying call me when you're done with your mom, she has priority.

Other random stuff: went school supply shopping, got a planner in purple (woot!) and other stuffs, meds are clearing up the staph infection on my legs really well. Only bummer is they make me itchy and the skin around my mouth feels kinda weird, like dry or something. Idk it's whatever, not annoying enough to pay more money to change meds. If it becomes and issue I'll call them for something new. School starts in a couple weeks.

Time for some pool then seeing if Luke wants to go to dinner/drive me to Frederick for moon pies.

Peace y'all.

P.S. Common Sense Life Lesson for the week: USE YOUR FREAKING BLINKERS! Seriously people, it's not that hard.

Countdown: 17 days

Good Things Come to Those Who Wait

God promises that when we obey, we will be rewarded. On occasion, these rewards are more tangible and visible. When I decided that the right thing to do was to honour my parents by agreeing to live at home this semester, I didn't want to do it. I felt that it was the right thing to do and felt God's peace about my decision when I did agree though. My reward was God bringing me a wonderful Christian guy to hang out with for the last two weeks. "Officially unofficial" is the only formal title we put to it, since he's moved to Rhode Island for 5 months to take a job. I'm not terribly distraught though. He'll be back a couple times in September for some dj jobs he committed to before leaving, plus hopefully sometime around Thanksgiving or Christmas, and we'll be in constant communication.

It's times like these that I really reflect on how good God is, when He chooses to send us very tangible reminders. At the beginning of the summer, I was very uninterested in anything like a relationship for various reasons, and was despairing my overall luck with guys. I had no clue that 2 months later I'd be a little more than friends with a guy who is not only fun to be around and easy to talk to, but also a Godly example. Not to mention that before he moved, he lived abaout 10 minutes from me...not important but definitely convenient when we were staying up til all sorts of stupid hours watching tv and having adventures.

School starts late this year. Most of my classes start Sept. 1, my Korean class actually starts the 8th. Doing the two campus thing will be interesting. Weds morning 9am class will be tough but so far it's my only early class. None of the other days have class before 1pm which is good and bad. It's kinda what screwed me over last semester. I was up til 4am every night cause I didn't have to wake up til 11am. I imagine my parents won't let me sleep that late living at home, and I won't really have all the freedom to be out and about horribly late, though I will have the car. Luke is going to Maryland but I keep the car since I'm living home going to school. There are perks!

God is good. Job 34:10 I keep written on my wrist as a reminder that "Far be it from the Almighty to do wrong." It is a constant reminder to me when I'm frustrated that God knows what He is doing and has a plan. cf. Jeremiah 29:11.

Peace Y'all.
