Today was absolutely B-E-A-U-tiful!! The temperature got up past 65 I think and I'm pretty sure the entire student population of SLU was seeing rainbows and butterflies with every step they took outside! Everyone was just so happy and excited to be outdoors. I'm pretty sure the weather is what made me so productive today. I did laundry and got all my homework done, and I actually did the homework really well, not just breezing through it to get it done. I even studied anatomy more than usual (as in I actually studied a little tonight). Now I'm listening to Miranda Lambert!! I love her music SO much and thankfully I get to go to her concert in Chaifetz Arena next week!! I literally can't wait!! Today was my friend's bday and I can say that I was the first person to tell her happy bday through text and on fb, I'd say that's an accomplishment (I happened to be awake at midnight last night to text her and write on her wall...). This weekend we're going to Bissinger's to celebrate, it's apparently the best chocolate/dessert place ever! Should be super fun! I can't wait for this weekend just to spend some time hanging out with my friends and hopefully spending a lot of time outside!! I just can't get over this weather!! It makes me such a happy camper! I also got to talk to my parents a little tonight on Skype. Unfortunately it was a video chat so they showed the view of the ocean from their hotel window and I saw how tan they are. I'm so jealous, but they definitely deserve the amazing vacation they're on!! Well another great day is coming to an end, I'm going to go to bed a little early and listen to music while I fall asleep since my roommate is gone for the night (I assume she's gone for the night since she's not here right now and it's late...). Anyway I hope everyone is taking advantage of the beautiful gift that this weather is!!
Also, I went to mass at college church this afternoon (the big cathedral on our campus) and the priest said something I thought was really great. The gospel was about Jesus healing a blind man, but he wiped the guys eyes more than once to help him see rather than doing it right away in one effort. The priest reflected on how God doesn't always answer our prayers immediately. Sometimes we need to have patience and watch out a little longer for his answer, and it's not always the answer we expect. I thought it was really relevant to my life, because sometimes it's so hard not to just know right now what God is calling me to do with my life. It's so frustrating waiting for God's answer, but have patience and it will come!
Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoyed this post today!! I'm surprised how much I really look forward to posting throughout my day. I thought I'd just end up posting once a week or something, but I like rambling about my life every day!! Hope you all don't mind the detailed accounts of my days!!
