I couldn't stay in my apartment to study today. The rain makes me completely stir crazy. Don't be to concerned, though, a good cup of tea in this crowded coffee shop has made it easy to get things done. Across the table is my friend Nami who happened to be here when I came. I've enjoyed seeing several friends pass through getting coffee and several others joining a group upstairs to do church. I need to remember to do this more often.
I'm back into a healthy rhythm after midterms. I'm going to start apply to internships the next few weeks and in preparation I've bought a dress to interview in. It is really the first big girl dress I've had. Of course, I've dressed for many weddings and showers at this point, but up to this point I could get away with simple dresses that don't need to much ironing. I feel a little older which amusing me.
Things at the B have been different this semester. Many of the changes have been very good like the emphasis on prayer. Almost every day at the B starts out with prayer at 9:30 followed by countless times over the week where we pray. Some of the freshmen wanted us to start praying before Worldlife and so we are doing that. The prayer team has been encouraging freshman to open up their dorm rooms to pray and so some groups meet there. I love it! I love seeing the Church here become more burdened for prayer.
College towns are so fluid. I consider it a blessing to do life here and be part of this body of Christians. It is neat also as I'm finishing up here to see new faces stepping in and being invested in while also investing in others. After two years of leading groups at Worldlife, it is to cool to be part of mobilizing new freshman to teach and build relationships for the purpose of sharing how good this God is who we serve.
Senioritis is in full swing and the rain has become a familiar friend. All of which makes it hard sometimes to be motivated. I'm praying that I would finish this last year at school strong. If it sounds like I'm leaving tomorrow, don't worry I'm not, but time sure is moving fast.
coffee shops are the best when it's raining. :-)
