What I've been up to

Yes, it has been one and a half months since my last update... and for that, my dear readers, I am ashamed. Well, maybe not ashamed. What can I say? I've been busy! With working about 30 hours a week between three baby sitting jobs and umpiring for softball, there has been school, MY softball games, photography, planning for a seventeen day vacation, a trip to Hershey AND to Texas, planning for another trip to Hershey for commencement, planning for a graduation partyand trying to jam friend time in between.

So, I've pretty much been off the radar, but hey... I'm still alive :)

There is so much that I want to talk about, but have no idea where to start. I'm afraid my writing will reflect my brain. For example: While umpiring today, my dad came down to the field and I asked him if he could go to the concession stand to get me a drink. I was standing right in front of my water bottle and had totally forgotten about it. I'm overwhelmed, but I at least have some sense of a direction to begin walking. :) Lets just say the past is in the past, and if you want to hear about my crazy, insane last couple of months, we can catch up in person!

Friday, June 11, 2010, will be my last official day of High School. Ever. Yea, I can't wait! Then the following Thursday, June 17, is when I walk. I'm pretty sure we are going to be able to see Gettysburg and Chambersburg while we're out there, so I'm dually excited.

Then my graduation party is July 10th, and I leave for my seventeen day photographic adventure to America's south west on July 16. I'll be back here on August 1.

I hope to keep you all up to date with my "crazy travelling fool" adventures, as Jenn would put it. But just in case... here are my internet links where you can see my latest pictures.

Gee.

I just had a thought. This time next summer, I will have chosen a college, secured financial aide, and found a room mate. The only decisions left will be what color I want my dorm room bed spread. It's a bittersweet thought. How I would LOVE to have all of the decisions decided and set in place for next fall, but I've heard that this is all part of enjoying the ride. I should be taking each day of this summer to relax and enjoy myself, because God knows next summer won't be as breezy. A small update on my college status. -I'm down to Art Education or Art Therapy as a major. (leaning toward Art Ed.) -I finally scheduled my SAT test date. (October 10th, 2009) -I found 5 colleges in Pennsylvania that offer Art Ed as an official major... *Messiah College (Harrisburg) *Seton Hill University (Greensburg) *The University of Edinboro (North... close to Erie) *Indiana University of Pennsylvania (Indiana, Pa. duh. ha...

Not Much but Just Enough

It is so incredibly easy to lose sight of where you are in life.  One thing piles onto the next and all of a sudden you are swampped with a million things lined up in your datebook and a billion thoughts going through your mind.  Sometimes I get so overwhelemed in my own life and busyness that I lose track of all the great things God is doing for me.  As some of you may know, I quit my job at Giant Eagle to persue photography full time.  I can't really describe the feeling of peace I had about it when I made the decision; I just knew it was the right thing to do.  At first it was slow going and kind of discouraging, but over the last couple of months I have been able to make enough money solely through photography to support myself and all of my expenses.  It would be easy to stop at that and brag on myself and my accomplishments, but I truly am humbled by the fact that God would choose to bless my efforts to use the talent he gave me to make a living....

I'll take 3 please!

So today as I was sitting in the waiting room of National Tire and Battery getting my car's oil changed I was watching the "Fox Business" channel. Minute after minute went by, but it seemed like hours. The mundane news anchors talked about how dumb it is to invest in gold bars, and how the flies in Georgia are beginning to migrate North for the winter. (the thing about flies isnt real, but it shows you how much attention I was paying to the TV). I was just about to bust out my iPod when I heard something that piqued my attention. A famous Japanese fashion designer invented an H1N1 suit. It looks just like a business suit, but the fabric on the outside has high-powered infection repellant so the H1N1 germ is killed instantly upon contact. If you want more details so you can laugh (or maybe you might be considering purchasing one for yourself) you can click here . The other thing I HAD to laugh at is the fact that Barrack Hussien Obama is the winner of this year'...
