Ugh...SNOW!

Let it be known that I do NOT like snow! I will admit that it is pretty when it is coming down, but as soon as it starts sticking to the ground I have a major problem with it! Now why do I bring this up? Well, today, it is snowing...and over the last hour or so it has decided to start sticking! It did this yesterday too...so I am not a very happy Diana today! Although the extra special cold that I have acquired could be playing a big role in the not happy Diana day as well! I have been doing nothing but sneezing or feeling like I am going to sneeze all day long...it has totally sucked! This weekend all the snow had melted and I was so very excited! Why does it have to snow and destroy the lovely sight of no snow? I don't quite understand.

Here is part of campus yesterday! Just imagine it with more snow...and that is today! Yuck!

All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone

I was reminded this past weekend that I really need to update my blog...and so, here I am!

I moved into Benedictine a week and a half ago and started classes last Tuesday. The last couple of day have been kind of weird becasue I know that everyone was headed back to Cornerstone and starting classes yet I was not there! I think it is going to take some getting used to. It really has made me realize how much I miss everyone. On Sunday a lot of people were on Facebook updating that they were back at school and although I am happy for them, I want to be able to see everyone too! Maybe I am just feeling it now more than ever before because I am still trying to make friends here. Everything is a process and I will get to the point that I am ok with everything; I am just not there yet. I am still learing to TRUST God completely and lean on Him, and transferring has definately forced the issue. At church on Sunday my pastor started a series entitled Jesus > (Jesus is Greater Than) and each week he puts something on the other side of that sign. For me, I just need to remember that Jesus is greater than any fear I may be having and that He will get me thru whatever I need. At the end of service they handed out wristbands that say "Jesus >"...and I have it sitting right next to me at my desk so that I can remember that!

On a lighter note, I really do enjoy being at Benedictine! And for those of you at Cornerstone, the food is ten times better, just saying! Feel free to come visit me anytime (I have an extra bed), just let me know ahead of time that you're coming! I am only about a half hour from downtown Chi and we could go hang down there as well.

As a final note you can see that I not only am updating my blog, I changed everything as well. I think it was about time since everything used to be Christmas and it is almost February! But I just wanted to mention the music. It is all Glee songs! I go the 2 soundtracks for Christmas and they have pretty much been the soundtrack to my life as of late, so I thought I would share a few of the songs! In case some of you don't know what I am talking about when I say Glee...I am talking about the TV show on FOX...it is freaking amazing!!! If you have never heard of it before, or even if you have, and you have never seen it, YOU NEED TO!!! The second season starts in April and you should watch it! The first season is all online...or if you come visit me, I have it on DVD and we can watch it!

I will try to be better about updating now that I am pretty much settled in at school!

I and Love and You,

Diana
