I am entirely nervous for this week at camp. Why is it so difficult for me to just enjoy time with other people? Hopefully I will get where I am going, forget my insecurities, and have a good time.

Quick post.

So here is a link that was sent to me by Katrina a couple of weeks ago. I love it so much! The picture beneath this is not only an excerpt from the page, but the title--enjoy!



P.S.- I love how not only does the cat in the pictures look like my cat, but that she does most of these things regularly. Therefore if you find me dead, you know where to start the investigation. :P

Things I Love Thursday.

Oh yes, it is that time of the week again--it's Thursday! Let's get started!

  • Eye exams- Weird I know, but they are fun and the gift of vision derive from them. Also, it means a new look for me--hooray!
  • Phone calls with the best friend- I miss her like crazy and catching up with her makes that day so much better. I think I forget sometimes how awesome it is to have someone to talk to. Also, I love that we rushed off the phone at ten minutes until midnight just so we could make the deadline for the Things I Love Thursday post. :D
  • Sales!- I am a lover of sales, call me cheap but I prefer frugal. I like to get my money's worth and today I would say that I did just that. For those of you who know me well know that I live in sweat/pajama pants when I am home, and now that it is summer it gets pretty hot. Therefore, today I made a winner of a purchase on some "active-wear" knee-length shorts for only 6 bucks; I am stoked!
  • The anticipation of something awesome- Monday is camp and I am pretty stinkin' excited! I cannot even begin to tell you how happy I am to spend time with people for more than 2 hours. :D
  • The photo below- I adore this picture so much and it helps the cause that it resembles my cat, Soot. I am a die hard cat person, for sure, so I thought this was right there next to sliced bread.

  • 6:30 AM- Weird one I know, but I have been getting up to exercise, listen to music, and just think. Who knew that this simple change in starting out your day could make the rest so much more amazing.
And because I have to get up so early, I would say it is time for bed! Thanks for reading and don't forget to check in next week for another. Oh and hey, I would love for you to comment about something awesome in your week! :D

This blog is everywhere.

Sometimes I hate the truth; when I say that I mean that sometimes I hate having to tell myself that something is the truth. In other words, I hate when the things that make your stomach crawl becomes reality. I am sure I will go into detail one of these days, sometime when this realization isn't so sickening to think about. BLAH.

On a happier note, I will be heading out to spend for days of camp on Monday! I cannot even tell you how happy I am to be able to spend quality time with other people; let alone other girls my age. Brittany is really ready to be happy, make a comeback(personality wise), and be confident in who I am, and I feel like spending time with other people will help with this. Also, more importantly, I have an expectancy for God to speak some major words this up and coming week.

Even sooner on the calendar, tomorrow I have an eye appointment! Woohoo! I am only super exited for this because I will also be picking out new frames; you have no idea (unless of course you where glasses), how old wearing the same thing on your face can become. I did a good job at picking out frames when I first got these, because they go well with everything and are hard to get tired of, but I feel like these don't represent me as well as others could. So, we shall see what happens.



I thought it was a cool picture.

We have a musical Sunshine.

Earlier this week I was reading an article about the Sun. "They found that huge magnetic loops that have been observed coiling away from the outer layer of the sun's atmosphere, known as coronal loops, vibrate like strings on a musical instrument." In other words, the Sun creates its own music.

I can honestly say that this is one of the coolest things ever. This just proves even more how music can relate to every aspect of our life. Not only that, but  music can effect the way you live your life, whether you know it or not.

Everyone I'm sure has their own ideas about what this "sound" really is, but I believe it is more than just sound and more than just music. Whatever it is, there is something so surreal about the fact that God not only created music, but that His creation creates music every day--even the things no one ever knew did.

To listen to the Sun and read the article yourself, click here.

I would like to know...

Who get's a cold in the middle of summer?!

I definitely have lots to do in the next two weeks: I will be catching up/getting ahead on school, heading out to camp on Monday, getting home and getting my license, and two days later I will be on a plane headed to Michigan for 3 weeks! :D
PostScript: Maybe one of these days I will get in a meaningful blog post again. lol.

Hooray!

Beside getting sick yesterday, I happened to also book tickets to Michigan! Woot! I will be flying out of here July 4, and will be gone for a little over three weeks--cool beans. I am quite ecstatic, but I still have a ton to do before I am able to leave. Gah.
