5 days ago - Saw a car with an "HONOR GOD" bumper sticker driving 20+ posted speed and tailing people aggresively. That really frosts my cookies.
9 days ago - The tea party movement might be a little out there for me, but I could definitely see myself joining a sweet tea party movement.

Only 39 more days until I leave for Argentina for about 2 weeks. Gosh… where did the last few months go? In preparation for the trip, I’ve been thinking about Eph. 3:20, which says that God “is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think.â€? Amen.

Currently Eating: Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream

A-choo! A-choo!! A-choo!!! Phew, glad I got that out of my system. Allegra is absolutely worthless, by the way; don’t even bother. In case you couldn’t tell, I think my allergies are acting up a little. I swear, they haven’t been this bad since I lived in Illinois (yet another reason why I would never [...]
