like anyone reads this anyways

It's been over a week and it's time to blog again. I get the feeling like no one reads this but oh well, I do this for myself mainly anyways (and my mahm). Well it has been an eventful week, John came this past weekend and we had so much fun! We spent a lot of time in the city walking around bricktown, watching movies and what not, we also hung around OBU and went horseback riding! I have a life list with things I want to accomplish in my life and one was horseback riding (I've never done it before) and John took me. It was a blast.
These next few weeks are going to be pretty busy I guess with the semester nearing an end teachers are cramming curriculum and assignments. I have a Spanish project, Critical Thinking test, essay, research paper, Earth Sci project and an informative speech due all before (or a few weeks after) Thanksgiving break. Yikes! Be praying for me. I hate feeling stressed out and I sometimes have a problem with time management. I want to get everything done and done well and I want to feel prepared. It's a lot to manage. In all honesty I don't know how I'm going to do it and I need the Lord to give me strength to handle it all. I cannot do this alone.
So I have some good news! John got accepted to OBU and he was worried about telling his dad (who is the Church of Christ pastor) and he told his dad last night. His parents were totally cool with it. All his classes are going to transfer as well. God is so good.
So I got the random urge to learn to knit two days ago. Me and this girl on my hall made a trip to Wal-Mart and bought yarn and needles. We learned mainly off of YouTube and another girl who know how to knit gave us a few pointers. It was tough and frustrating at first to get the hang of but now I am a knitting machine! I'm getting pretty good and I am working on my first scarf thing. I can't wait to lean how to integrate colors, make hats and learn new stitching techniques.
Whenever I finish I'll try to post pictures on here of what it looks like (my camera died a few weeks ago so I am without a camera)

money, hostages and everything in between.

Well here i am again. I'm doing pretty good on this blogging thing. haha. I'm still unsuccessful in finding a job. I'm going tomorrow to apply at some more places. It's really getting frustrating and I'm getting worried. Please be praying. I have a bill I need to pay ( i went over on my darn cell phone) and it's quite a bit of money. My mom sends me money once a month and my dad does too every once in awhile. But making that stretch for a whole month with toiletries, food and gas...it's hard. I am halving it, half goes for me to spend and the other half goes to my bill. I find myself worried a lot about it, sometimes crying about it. I'm trying to hand it to God but it is so hard when you need that money by a certain time. Maybe this is too personal but I feel like I need to get it out.
This weekend was a lot of fun. Our school held a Halloween costume party in the empty dorm building that they are remodling for next year. It was a blast! There was a ton of people there and they had a live band and we all danced. It was so refreshing to have people all dancing goofy and having fun. So different from the grinding you see in high school. I went as Gabriella and my best friend Megan went as Sharpay from High School Musical. I'll list a few of the other costumes my friends picked: a cholo(that was Ben), a kangaroo, peter pan, Sarah Palin, a nerd, the baby from Who Framed Roger Rabbit, a Scot, a lifegaurd, a rugby player and Dwight from The Office. It was a blast. After we were done we made a 1:00am trip to Denny's and hit the hey around 2:30. Last night we all piled into cars and played a game called hostage. You split into two teams and pick two players and they switch. You blindfold the two players from each team. You take them in your car and drop them off at a random place in town. The goal is to find the hostage team members before the opposing team. Dangerous? Probably. Fun? Absolutley.
This Thursday John (my boyfriend) is coming to visit me. I'm so excited! He has a lot of things planned. We'll be dating for six months that day and he has a lot of surprises planned for the weekend. It'll be so nice to see him.
Just a few more weeks until Thanksgiving. Hooray! It'll be nice to be home again.
