Changes...

I was on Facebook today and I found this video from a girl I met at church. Man it's amazing. It really got me thinking. I'm feeling like I'm leading a life of mediocrity. I 've been attempting to change my diet and exercise habits but I now realize that its not just what i am putting in my mouth that may be harmful but what i am putting into my mind. To put it bluntly, I read a lot of gossip. I know what celebrity was eating where last night, and it goes on and on and on.

My old youth paster once told me that something can become a habit in 30 days. So along with my new way of eating and exercising I'll be cutting out the gossip websites and magazines.

I'm going to be engaging in my bible reading also...which I'm very excited about.

I also plan on going back to church (back at school.)

God willing my projects gets less time consuming, I work faster, and I have an abundance of energy.

So I'm replacing the links I have to my gossip sites with this one...


http://www.freerice.com so I'll be feeding people and working on my vocabulary.

Hopefully this goes as planned, well as God plans, which I hope is close to mine ;-)

I think have an issue with control.


This is a picture my 3 year old cousin Jordan drew on Christmas Eve of him and his mom. I babysat him all day today. Whew!

I really don't have time to be blogging.

But I got this really cute dress for Christmas from my cousin Renee (Sariah's mom.) It makes me feel like I'm going to a picnic in the 50's or something. Man I love clothes. I can't wait to start working out again and getting my physical self back on track. I'm going to try being a pescetarian for a month and see how that goes. I'll still be taking vitamins and making sure I have iron in them for my anemia but cutting out red meat and chicken. I'm going to also eat more salad and drink more water which i don't do much of now. I'm going to be working out 2-3 times a week about 4-5 hours a week. Hopefully I can save on money too. I love fresh starts!

Merry Almost Christmas

My baby cousin Sariah is so stinking cute! Look at that fro! lol. I had a ball with her yesterday at her house playing around while I was waiting for her mom to do my hair. She's so sweet. She's smart too. I can't wait to see her again tomorrow. So... tomorrow's Christmas. I kinda don't feel it.

It's not even breazy outside. Sure I know it's Miami but come on.

I think i'm going to try out being a vegetarian of sorts for a month. I'll see how that goes. Of course starting after the holidays!

Well I've just got back home and I started the blog a couple of hours ago.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I kind of like this season...

I think my theme song for the whole fall semester would be any Mat Kearney song... ahhhh I just love pensive, sad sounding-but not necessarily sad songs. And his show was spectacular. Just amazing. I know... why am I still thinking about it huh? That good!

I'm glad I'm single. I like me a lot. I've seen some friends that can't bare to be alone and its sad to me. It's like "You really don't think your good enough on your own?" I hope I never feel like I need someone else to validate my worth. And I really pray that I never put a mere mortal man that makes mistakes up on such a pedestal that I push my heavenly father aside for him. Granted these girls don't have much of a relationship with Christ but it's like nowadays people just can't believe that God would want to have anything to do with them. It's sad that there is such a lack of self esteem.

So I said I'm glad I'm single right? Well it's pretty much because I like how I learn new stuff about myself all the time. Plus with the little time I have I can spend it doing what I want to do.

Christmas is coming up. I went to church 3 times in the past 7 days. It's a lot when back up at school I went to church like 3 times the whole semester. It was fun though. We had a Christmas party last night which was great and I ended up bringing some sparkling grape juice. It was amazing. I really don't enjoy alcohol, at least the ones I've tried. So the grape juice was great. I mean... not that I'm of age or anything to drink or like I've had that many chances...mostly family parties and such.

I'm soooo old now that my list is pretty much obsolete. I bought my mom a bunch of little things. A dvd for two of my baby cousins. That's about it. I'm asking for the chronological bible, an extra battery for my laptop, and a few other little things. I think the whole college thing and pretty much buying stuff whenever you have the means and not having to wait kind of makes Christmas less of a selfish holiday like it has been in the past for me.
