Spring, Please?

Thoughts for the Day:

1. Harry Potter never disappoints--I finished the 7th one for the 4th time, and I still got sad when it was over. I even got all giddy and excited when Harry killed Voldemort, and the scene where Kreacher storms in with the other house elves and yells "Fight for my master!" gets me every time. :D Call me lame if you want; I just can't help it! I'm pretty sure I'll be a Potter Fanatic for life. Ya got me, JK Rowling.

2. Just have to say--I grow very, very, very weary of cold weather in the morning, then warmth in the afternoon, followed by cold again at night. Seriously. Spring needs to arrive and STAY. And yeah, driving through Mississippi in SNOW during MARCH is just wrong. WRONG, people, WRONG!

3. It is impossible for me to make an A in an upper level literature class. Granted, I am only in my third at the moment. Alas, it will be my third B. Now, I'm not complaining about B's. I love them. I'm just stating an observation I made at lunch today when I reflected on my Short Story test score while trying to consume this weird noodle concoction the Caf served up.

4. Spewing lovely Fruit Punch Vitamin Water from your nose/mouth at the same time makes for a choking/sputtering/disgusting mess of a human being. Which is what I was when I laughed uproariously yesterday at something I thought in my head. Which made everyone around think I'm completely off my head.

5. Yesterday I called my friend Audra "Gwenette." Then I called her "Andrew." My Mind really is starting to go, as I found I could not form her name. Woe is me.

Spring for good, PLEASE?
No more thoughts for today. Ciao.

Dear Blog,
So sorry I have neglected you, school took me hostage. I am back, and I will try to update you more often. Thanks for understanding.
Love,
Brittany

Well I'm back! And I'm happy, because in 2 days I will finally be going home!!! It has been six long weeks, and I am beyond ready to depart this campus for a week. My Mom is making me chicken chili, potato soup, and pot roast--yummmm. My taste buds will finally be treated to something better than whatever the caf decides to scrape up.
So the last month and a half has had its highs and lows, like always. Highs: our trip to New Orleans to see Switchfoot and the French Quarter (which my sister Amy got to go on), Creative Writing Class, Alice in Wonderland 3D, and late night trips to IHOP. Lows: studying, tests, sitting on my brand new umbrella, bending it almost in half and rendering it useless (aren't I talented hahaha), and an unpleasant confrontation that I was forced into (I really hate those).
However, I won't let the lows outweigh the highs. Last night Kari Jobe came to MC, and the worship experience was so good I almost have no words.
She reminded us not to put anything above God; not to make anything bigger than Him--because no matter what it is, He can handle it and see us through. I had been forgetting that recently.
Kari also reminded me that the Bible says that when Satan throws thing after thing at us when we are down, hitting us with blow after blow, God RAISES HIS STANDARD. How comforting that is!
Yeah, that was exactly what I needed to hear. :)

Next time I update, I will probably be sitting at home, my tastebuds content and my mind on break from constantly thinking about school--Hallelujah!
