The Nashville Flood. May 2, 2010.

this video captures it so well and creatively.

gloomy weekend

shows i saw last week:

the middle east

beach house

the soil and the sun

timbre

the month of May has brought Nashville

disastrous weather, massive flooding.

the city is basically shut down.

so many roads, houses, buildings under water.

luckily my house is up high and we are safe.

i thought being stuck inside would help

me study for finals. still so distracted.

a little update:

since March I've visited home [baltimore].

also went to cleveland, tn and atlanta.

seen great friends and good music.

including two of my favorite bands:

the middle east. beach house.

now i have finals next week.

then the glorious summer begins!

sometimes i still wake up and ask myself

'what the hell am i doing with my life?'

then other morning I'm content

and in love with life.

revisit

last week I went to Kansas City/ Lawrence.

just to hang out with some beautiful people.

left wednesday morning accompanied by my friend Ric.

we arrived in KC just in time to pick up my aussie mate, SARAH!

so surreal hanging out with her in America.

such an encouraged just being in her presence for 2 days.

we hung out at coffee shops, went to IHOP to see another one

of our YWAM DTS mates, Andy, and hung out with Alex and Kevin who

graciously let us crash at their house.

when Sarah left we headed to Lawrence to hang out with

the kansas crew. so refreshing to see them all.

good times crashing a 21st bday party.

watching a movie.

dumpster divin pizzas.

being silly goofs.

Saturday we had brekkie in Lawrence all together.

then headed to KC to hang out more.

lots of snow.

Sunday, went to Noffy and Alex's church and then went out

for brekkie one last time then we all parted ways.

great weekend.

success.

other updates:

1. I got a job at a doggie daycare.

it has its ups and downs.

enjoying it for the most part.

PTL for a job.

2. switching my major back to geography.

discovered i enjoy learning that more then media.

doesn't mean im going to abandon my heart for media,

maybe i'll do a ywam media school after college.

i'd prefer to learn it in that environment.

3. going to Middle TN State in the Fall

secrets keep you sick

"Now here is my secret.

I tell it to you with an openness of heart

I doubt I will ever achieve again . . .

My secret is that I need God—

that I am sick and can no longer make it alone.

I need God to help me give,

because I no longer seem to be capable of giving;

to help me be kind,

as I no longer seem capable of kindness;

to help me love,

as I seem beyond being able to love."

learning that everything in this life is uncertain.

unreliable. temporary. unfaithful.

which makes it all the more reason to celebrate

that the Lord is certain.

reliable. everlasting. faithful.

always and forever.

wassap snow!
