Feels like I'm playing leap-blog.

Okay, so here I am fiddling with my blogs when I should be sleeping. But there is the potential for a snow day tomorrow, not that I'm banking on that or anything. No pun intended. Banking...snow, snow bank. Yeah, I'm done.

So, this is where I will be recording life as I see it from here on out. I am not able to import my Tumblr blog to this one, but I put the link to it on the side panel on the left under "Sites." I won't be doing much posting on my Tumblr account anymore--probably just audio files and websites (if even those).

I also imported a blog that I was using in 2007-8 called "Memorable Moments." Hence, all of the posts preceding this one. Well, with that said, I'm off to bed! In theory.

In-between.



Sometimes I am tempted to think that I’m living in-between, in some kind of limbo state, waiting for my life to really happen. I am a student teacher, not an actual one. I am a college student, not fully immersed in the real world (the world outside of the college bubble). I live with my parents, not on my own. I am technically in a young adult phase of my life, not fully an adult with all the responsibilities that adulthood brings. I recently moved, so I’m not really connected to a geographical area or group of people. I have not yet found a church where I can really be involved and feel part of a body. I have no romantic element in my life.

I feel like I’m waiting for a lot of things to happen in my life. They all seem so elusive, so very out of grasp. I truly believe that someday all of these things will happen, and that the timing will be perfect for each and every thing. My goal is to seize this time of my life and make it count for something. I don’t want to just wait for these things to happen and forget to find the beauty in the days I’ve been given.

Every day is a blessing and adventure.

More of an attempt.

Here I am again, a good-intentioned “blogger.” This is the beginning of my attempt to be a little more open about my life. I’m not the type of person to publicize information about myself at the drop of a hat, but I think it’s fun to share the joys, pains, and beauty of the human experience with others. I keep a blog of my own that serves as my personal journal, but I thought it would be nice to take a step further.

I’m in my student teaching semester of my senior year, so there will probably be a lot to say! So, here’s to fun times and heartfelt thoughts ahead!
