Yes-Things are Happening :)
Well! Its been a couple days, or maybe one day...I have no idea...but anyways, things have been happening! My roommate moved in today, so thats fun and my suitemates, and the rest of the sophomores. Its good to see some people, not so good to see others.
For the record -- I <3 Heather Trammel :)
Sorry, she just walked up...SO Anyways, these new freshmen ROCK! I was a little afraid for the sophomores to move in, but it seems to be going well. Its so weird, kuz I've been meeting all new people for 2 days and now people I know are here and...well its just weird.
I'm at the desk, second night in a row and I got stressed out when someone called with a question I didnt know how to answer so I called Brad on the Nextel and I'm pretty sure he thought I was retarded...but thats okay. I can deal, I'm fine now, I just couldnt think of what to do! PLUS I have no one to talk to tonight kuz Reese and Josh went to Walmart.
I started the MIG flyer that I'm going to hand out on Tuesday. So far its got a couple MIG symbols...and 1 column of things you can do at MIG...but I dont know what else to put on there...Pictures prolly and a description of what each part does. I'm just stressed out -- a little nervous too I think. Its just with a new job and new living environment, its hard. I wanna go back home to go to church tomorrow but I dont think thats a very good example to the freshmen, I should stay and go to Rochester Christian Church tomorrow. I am, because I'm leading Hollyann and Katie. I hope I can find a freshie that wants to ride with me.
I know this is waaay jumpin topics, but I have been thinking a lot lately, and I havent set the best Christian example that I couldve this week. Thats hard too kuz I want to, I know that I should, but when I get around certain people (which seems to be almost all my UIS friends) I cuss more and say things I shouldnt and I judge people a lot more. I want people to be able to see Jesus in me and I'm not doing a very good job. I have my moments I guess, but sometimes I cant even look at myself in the mirror.
I'm learning...and its hard...but I love it :)
Later
Shelly

Hey Shelly :) I have been looking at Ephesians 4:17-32 today, and it kinda goes along with what you are saying... Wanting to have good things come out of your mouth. It's something I'm trying to work on too, so we can encourage each other ;)
Wow... a real post! :)
It's funny... I was just on campus (I arrived home just about half an hour ago - after 3 AM!). After leaving the Fairgrounds, we came over to the townhouse that now contains Messrs. Tosh, Black, Waggonner, and [Mark]. [Incidentally, the first three of which now have weblogs... Though at this point, I'm too lazy to hyperlink, like I've been known to do... ;-) ] In arriving on campus, I was just thinking about CSF people (and others), including Heather!!... Is she still here in Springfield? It would be great to be able to see her, before she leaves. (At Nathan and Sarah's wedding, I didn't know if that would be the last time I'd talk to her.) Also, I just mentioned to Jeff something about that poignant post by Katie... We're going to miss her a lot too.
:-(
I've said before that I don't like change.
This is the reason why.
Heather is living in Nashville, TN as of now. She left today...or maybe yesterday...I have no idea...
Ask Matt...or Heather...whichever...
there's a link to Heather's blog on Matt's blog...check it out
I know I'm kinda late with this comment, but...
I <3 SHELLY!!!
Also, I hope you found a freshie to ride with you to church last Sunday! Take care darlin, and I'll throw a little sisterly prayer up there for ya! I heard from this really smart guy once that doing flows from being, and I couldn't agree more! My prayer for you won't be along the lines of figuring out how to be a better role model, but that you would be captivated by Him! Have an amazing semester dear sister. :O)
