Tonight @ MindSay

 well the basketball game went ok tonight..actually the boys lost :( it was a nice effort though. I'm a cheerleader by the way..ya i knowkinda lame but i get to go to go to like all the games so i'm pretty happy about that. but ya i didn't even mess up like ten times so that was pretty good. at least i did the splits which makes me really happy.

 

our play wasnt' to bad. it was just kinda boring in parts..ya i had to be on staget the whole time as one of the narrators and i jsut sat and watched the kindergarteners the whole time cause they are so adoreable. i babysit one of them and she is such a sweet heart. haha because of her all the kindergarteners love me. ya my high school has elementary in it to so that has to be oneof the best parts cause they always give me hugs and high fivves..which would kinda be my middle fives but you get the idea.

 

but i'm just happy that its finaly christmas break soi can sleep in.

 

happy holidays

i recently visited my future university.

i was thrilled.

inspired.

amazed.

pretty much every wonderful adjective

there is to be said: i embodied them all.

 

my host student was a boring transfer,

but she lived in howard and that's all i

needed.

 

the dorms kinda sucked; i think i'm

going with kerr instead, just because

it'll be crazy awesome. i'll save quiet

for a later year. perhaps when i'm a

stodgy senior.

 

actually, i think i'll be a crazy college

student, no matter what. i'm gonna be

a tri-dub, part of the herd, and in every

fun thing there is to imagine. and did you

know, there's walmart bingo?! google it.

 

but yet again, i'm looking into a sorority.

i know, i know... me, a sorority girl? but

this is different, this isn't crazy secular

emporia. this is, well it is what it is. and it's

awesome. what gets me is the philanthropic

part, and the crazy, dorm-like atmosphere

that sorority's create. but who knows, we'll

see when i get into the RAWC with all of

it's frats and sororities, begging for pledges.

 

it's all so interesting.

 

i'm ready to leave, but at the same time,

i'm not. there's still some unfinished business,

but that's normal. i guess... i still have a

semester and a summer of indy, and then i'm

off, all by myself, with those crazy baptists.

the closer it gets, though, the more excited

i'm becoming me. i still feel like there's just

one more thing i need to do before i leave.

i have yet to discover with it is.

 

sean and i discussed mafia, right after we

talked about gramma's fried chicken and

changing today's church... yes, baptists and

catholics talk about things like that. i'm pretty

sure he's irish mafia, and he's convinced i'm

polish mafia. hey, you know it could all be

true. he left to study history. the world may

never know just how many licks it takes to

get to the center of a tootsie pop.

 

i wish all of you students a happy tuesday,

as i stay home and do nothing but watch

daytime television.

 

one more note, for the first time ever, i was

a part of a college worship service. i cried.

the music, the message, the atmosphere...

people say that that's just emotional, but it

wasn't. it was amazing and God-inspired.

it was fantastic to be back in "church" with

students, peers, people my age! and did i

mention the music? for me, music is my way.

it's my attention getter, it's how my heart

speaks to my Creator. and this music, it was

amazing.

 

but then, nothing is beyond God's realm,

therefore anything and everything is amazing,

simply because He created it.

I voted.

 

Yep...

 

I know, not that enthused.  But it's true.  I was

practically in tears yesterday and this morning.

And then at 12:45, after I'd eaten and returned

from Pub Lab, I voted.  I darkened that McCain/

Palin dot and I was shaking the whole time. It

was the nerves of taking part in such a grand

thing, and also because it was my first time voting.

How utterly exciting.  And when I slipped that

paper into the shawty tin box, it's like all my

fears were swept in there too.  I'm still a bit

scared of what will happen.  But I've prayed,

given my fears and worries up to God, I've

determined to have Faith in whatever God

decides is appropriate, and I did all I could do.

One vote, just one vote: but it's my voice on

that paper.  It's my cry that's heard by God.

 

We shall see.  O, America, we shall see...

i recieved ten and one half hours of sleep last night.

and yet in my first class of the day (which was at 10

instead of 8) i still managed to almost fall asleep. and

spanish I is not boring by any means. i don't know

what's wrong with me these days. i'm just so... yawn

 

but life barrels on like a race car.

 

i'm dropping the Buccaneer next semester. i'm doing

a full 18 hours again and i'd prefer my school hours

spent at school, not at home on my laptop. yes, i've

enjoyed my time on the Buc, and just today i turned

in another roaring article on recycling around town.

but i'm just not satisfied with the class and frankly, i

have enough to worry about after school, let alone

a measely paper to worry about.

 

you know what mindsay needs, other than Jesus,

spell check. spell check would be amazing.
