It has been such a long time since I have updated. Okay, probably not a super long time, but so much has happened between when I last posted until now, so it seems like it has been a while. Here is an updated list of the current events in my life:

-I have been having just a wonderful time with friends. From going to the Tin Caps game, to eating pizza, to driving around creeping, life with all of the wonderful girls in my life has been wonderful.
-Tennis is here again.
-I started my Junior Block Practicum 2 weeks ago. I am in a great first grade class in Ft. Wayne where I have been challenged in extreme ways concerning my abilities to teach. My co-op teacher is intense, and probably one of the best teachers I have met, so I feel intimidated and slightly nervous...something I haven't really experienced in the classroom yet. The experience is teaching me a lot!
-Afternoon classes = busy and I am tired.
-I have had some great conversations that have challenged me and pushed me and lots of good laughs and some wonderfully awkward moments.

It seems like life is just flying by right now and I am not totally sure how to make it stop. I don't know where to begin with my homework load, and if I am being totally honest here, my emotions have been getting the best of me lately. I have always known this about myself, but it has become more evident in these last two weeks: it is very hard for me to give up control of my life. I have been lacking in the area of faith lately and doubting silly things and spending way too much time worrying, even after I have given it up to God. For this reason, I am going to make a small list of goals for things that I need to work on this week:
-Begin each day with prayer (yes...even before I leave for school at 7 a.m. - it will be a challenge)
-Try to stop over thinking things haha. So easy to say, but so hard to do.
-Clean my car out.
-Try my best at tennis, even when I am tired and have other things on my mind.

Well after looking at that list I think it definitely calls for this quote, and my motto for each day this week: "Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So...get on your way." -Dr. Seuss :)
