Grateful Reminiscing and Looking Ahead

Hello, Berries!

It is the Saturday before finals week,

and I have no obligations today!

Well, none that are so urgent.

I have a paper to write

and an online course to finish,

but I do not have to leave my dorm home

to do either of those things.

Yay!

I'm thinking I'll heat up a can of soup

and watch the rain roll in.

I'm in my chair right now,

it hasn't gone home yet, thank goodness,

listening to a Walter Gross record.

I've got an old Disney movie in, too,

with the volume off.

I read chapter 3 of Colossians this morning

and wrote it down as I read it.

I find that helps the word stick better.

So, I found some pictures on my old laptop

of my home room that I was going to use on my blog

before that laptop crashed.

It woke back up from it's coma,

for some unknown reason that I won't question.

I'm so glad, because I love these pictures...

I was going to narrow them down,
but I love them all!
<3

What a beautiful new start that was,
getting to move.
New town.
New room.
New jobs.
New friends...

New furry friends, too!
As well as a furry edition to our family...

... Squirt!
=^.^=

I look forward to being home again,

out in the woods...

... out by the lake...

... or in my room with the fluffy family

and a cup of tea.

As for now,
I am in my dorm room,
all stark and plain from being robbed of the decorations
and most of the furniture.

This post has been a few days in the making,
since I had some trouble with Google drive.

I'm glad all that is solved!

It is Tuesday, now,
and I just completed my jury.
If you have ever been a music major,
you can testify as to how nerve- racking those things are!

I'm done with them now,
thank you, Jesus,
thus marking the near end of the semester.
I am done performing.
Maybe just for the year,
maybe forever.

I am so grateful to have spent
the last three years of my life here at the Valley.
I'm so grateful to have spent them here at South Hall...

I am so grateful to be leaving,
so grateful to be DONE,
to have accomplished a degree,
even one so insignificant as an associates.
I am so grateful to be moving on,
to be able to spend the summer at home,
working with my dad,
and at the shop,
working with my mom...

That is as far into the future that I can handle thinking about
right now...

Nonetheless,
I'm grateful for the adventure to come afterwards.

Thank you for reading.
I'll write again "afterwhile"
as my grandparents say.

(:

Until next time,
Lots of Love,
