You and I Collide

So I realized that while blogging was a great idea in theory, I have absolutely no time to do it consistently. Well anyway, here's an overview of what life is like right now...

Sunday: I have choir rehearsal before church&Sunday school. I love our choir. It's sooo much fun. And we're pretty good if I do say so myself. :) I've been going to the Boelcke's house after church for the past few weeks. I love spending time there. I feel very at home there. After spending the afternoon with them, we head to evening church {either at Grace or Providence.} Then I watch a movie or finish homework before heading to bed!
Monday-Tuesday: School! I love all of my classes this year. AP Lit&Theatre are my favorites though. I feel so much more comfortable at school now, thanks to chapel. Chapel is soooo amazing this year. The planning team is so awesome and committed this year. We've started what we're calling "The Prayer Revival." Everyone is praying all the time! It's completely lifted the whole spirit of the school. It's such a blessing to see groups of 2 or 3 students praying together in the halls or just to know that you can ask anybody to pray with you and that they're willing to drop what they're doing and pray right there and then. Our God is so faithful. Anyway, after school RGar and I usually go out and get something to eat before we both have to work at 4. We typically just end up sitting in the cafe, drinking coffee and looking at random books. It's pretty fun. :) Then I usually work till 10:30. I really love working there. The people are pretty cool and making drinks is really fun. Even though I hate the new automatic espresso machine. :( I feel like a fake barista. All I have to do now is push a button. I come home and finish what homework I have left then go to bed.
Wednesday: School as normal, then I come home and teach 2 piano lessons. I've had some trouble with my 1st student, Lena. They're not consistent at all. I can tell she doesn't practice, they always forget to pay me and half the time they're late or don't even show up. It's been really frustrating. My mom talked to her mom about it though and hopefully things will get better soon. On the other hand, I loooove teaching Courtney Jakiel. I can tell that she practices and she's catching on really quickly. Teaching her is a lot of fun. It feels very right. :) After my lessons, I relax for awhile then head to youth group. Things are going quite splendidly with Danny and Laura. They're really funny together. Oh, and they're expecting a baby! Yay! They've been going through the game of life during their lessons and talking about biblical perspectives on all the different stages of the game {getting a job, dating, marriage, finances, ...}. It's a really neat idea. Again, the Lord has provided for his children...even though I still miss Jon. :(
Thursday: See Mon-Tue.
Friday-Saturday: The weekend usually consists of sleeping, working, choir practice, homework/studying, more sleeping, movies, hanging out with the Sweden fam, and random trips to Grove City or Geneva.

Well, that's life right now. Not too exciting, which is good. I'm sure things will get crazier with the Holidays coming up. Concert time! I'm excited for Messiah and I think our school concert will be good as well. I'm going to see the Genevans concert this Saturday night...it'll be fun to see Adam in it this time! I'm especially excited for the Holidays because Mrs. S and Jon will be home!! Woooo hooooo!

I'm gonna go finish watching Zepherelli's Romeo& Juliet {which is amazing} and then go to bed and sleep in tomorrow! Night!

I was really excited to see you write a new blog. :) It makes me laugh, though, that you were the one who originally started blogging and I was just copying you, and now I'm like the insane hardcore blogger. hehe

I also love how you and I always mention each other in our blogs and how we're so much a part of each others normal, every day lives. :)

I'm excited to go to Geneva on Saturday. :=)
