-I talked to the vice president of christian development about my article. He didn't even want to talk about my article, he wanted to talk about his political views. Basically. I left the talk knowing that he is very pro-life, and only likes women to talk in chapel or churches if they don't "dabble in theology."....then please tell me, what are women allowed to talk about? Precisely. My point. I left with not very much respect for him
- I've just been realizing how blessed I am, and it is a really great feeling.
-I put a gay pride sticker on my water bottle. This wouldn't be a big deal, except i'm down in the south, at Baptist college. However, it has brought on some good conversations. At first I was worried about people getting mad...but it has led to some good conversations about equality. I am for gay rights. I'll just say that right now. Being down in the south has made me realize how important equality is. God calls us to love everyone. That includes people not like us. This is always why I belong to the Presbyterian Church. NOT PCA. PC(USA). We love everyone. This makes me happy.
-I've started the process of applying for mission trip companies and camps for next summer. It is so much fun to do! I have a phone interview on Wednesday with a company called YouthWorks! (The exclamation point is part of their logo...how cool is that?! I LOVE exclamation points...just sayin) Then next Wednesday, I have an interview with Center for Student Missions. I went on a mission trip to NYC with them a few years ago and loved them...we will see what happens.
-I met my littles. I love them. We have a cute little family now. Well it is getting bigger. Which is good.
-I'm applying to University of Oregon for next fall! And maybe University of Missouri! This excited me. A lot. This is due to a variety of factors...but it all comes down to what place has the best journalism school. And if Oregon can offer me a lot of money, that means I get to live with one of my best friends AND maybe rush. I really want to be in a real sorority. Not the little tribe stuff we have here. I mean, it's fun...but I need something else if I go to public school. I miss public school! It just seems so nice. I went to public school my whole life...this whole private school thing is not for me....maybe it's just Christian School that isn't for me.
more later...hopefully more consistently
