Thoughtful Thursday

 

 

 

 

 

Outside my window... The backyard. I can see turtles in the creek.... and a guy mowing.

I am thinking... About my classes for BLAST tomorrow

I am thankful for... A flexible schedule

From the learning room... Most everyone is done with school today. I had a math test this morning.

From the Kitchen... Not much is happening there tonight. The kitchen is usually uneventful nights before BLAST class.

I am wearing... My dark Skinny Kick Jeans, a comfy tee, barefoot, my silver cross ring, "diamond" stud earrings. My hair is straightend.

I am creating... Mmmm. I'm working on a few things...

I am going... Nowhere tonight. I had to go to the college this morning.

I am reading... My bible - psalms, proverbs, and I Peter. I'm not currently reading any books (looking for one to read) but I'm kinda reading a play by Oscar Wilde (same guy who wrote The Importance of Being Ernest) but I can't really get into it...

I am hoping... I can get my classes planned quickly and have a nice evening and an early night.

I am hearing... The lawn mower. Actually, it just stopped. I can hear the kids in the other room.

Around the house...  Everyone is busy doing something. Lots of us aren't home. Most people are getting ready for classes tomorrow.

One of my favorite things... Earl Grey Tea. I'm crazy over it. Did you know its Prince Charles' favorite blend? He has great taste. I need a cup about now...

A few plans for the rest of the week... Tomorrow is BLAST. Saturday is shopping. Sunday is a rest/catch up on unfinished things day. And all the next week is just full of normal week day stuff - school, homework, errands, gym, etc.

Thoughtful Thursday

 

 

 

Unfortunately, now that I go to school on Thursdays, Thursday's aren't so very thoughtful. But I'll give it a go anyway.

 

 

 

Outside my window... Empty computer labs.  

I am thinking... About babysitting tonight

I am thankful for... Excedrin

From the learning room... About to go to math class

From the Kitchen... I don't think this counts but I had a chicken salad spinach wrap from the campus cafe?... I made muffins and homemade pizza yesterday!

 (But the cat got in the house and ate all the pizza....)

 

I am wearing... Darkish colored jeans, a brown cami, a white/see through blouse with brown designs, three silver rings, brown boat shoes

I am creating... This blog post

I am going... No where for now, math class later, and to babysit even later

I am reading... My bible and "My heart in His hands"

I am hoping... For smooth sailing tonight and tomorrow

I am hearing... What is it that makes that humming noise in an empty room? Computer monitors? Lights? Whatever that is. And a guy rolling a cleaning supply cart down the hall.

Around the house... I'm not home so I couldn't say. But I would guess school and getting

ready for the evening

 

One of my favorite things...  Going home at the end of the day

A few plans for the rest of the week... Babysitting, homework, gardening

Thoughful Thursday

Outside my window... Pitch black.  

I am thinking... About a great deal of things including calender planning, blog ideas, and that I really need to get to bed.

I am thankful for... My Mother.

From the learning room... At this hour? Everyone else is asleep.

From the Kitchen... Refer to above question...

I am wearing... A pair of black capri warm up pants and an over sized tye dyed shirt.

I am creating... A new calender.

I am going... Hopefully to bed here in a minute.

I am reading... My bible. Nothing else is on the reading list at the moment.

I am hoping... To have a successful/productive day tomorrow.

I am hearing... The fan and a tv someone left on.

Around the house... Every one is sleeping but me and that tv. It is some what dark quite and I'm getting rather sleepy.

One of my favorite things... A nice warm bed?? ;)

A few plans for the rest of the week... Lots of college algebra and English. And the family's coming down for a few days to celebrate an 18th birthday. Hm. Wonder who that could be. Sarah.

Until next time,
Juliana

Its a 10 Cups of Coffee Kinda Mornin'!

Like my mug?

College is a whirlwind and papers are flying every which way! I hope I can put it all in order before my first biology test tomorrow!

I wanted to announce that I now have 10 followers on my blog! Thank you, Abigail, for being my tenth follower. I remember promising when I got 10 followers I would hold my first giveaway. I do still plan on doing this BUT due to massive stacks of homework I probably won't host one until the month of June is over. So sit tight until then.

Biology calls my name.

Until next time,
Juliana.

I Can do ALL Things through Christ who Strengthens Me!

Dear Friends,

I started my first ever semester of college today. Wow. The thought of college is really exciting and is the path I feel led to follow. But it won't be without challenges.

 I've enrolled in three different courses: General Biology, Biology Lab, and Learning Frameworks.

Let me tell you, if I don't constantly repeat that scripture to myself I'm not sure I'll make it through the summer.

But its not that the classes are hard. They are a piece of cake so far. But that's just it. I know all of this stuff! My psych class is a non-optional class and I'm being taught things like how to handle stress by yoga, listening to my ipod, or doing something fun, how to study better, how to take true or false tests, etc.

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

This is a fact.

And the mind-set I must cling to to get through this semester.

I honestly look forward to what these classes hold and hope I can learn to laugh my way through them. A good grade is all that matters in the end.

Has anyone else ever had challenging college experiences?

Until next time,
Juliana.
