RELIEF!!

I finally feel that I have settled into my new routine. I am so excited about his semester! The college group that I am in is really on fire for God. It is amazing and I love that everyone is participating in class now (even me!) I am also excited because a friend of mine is really wanting to study the Bible. She has little knowledge of God and is really wanting to seek Him. We are going to start studying together tomorrow night and I pray that God can use me to speak to her and that her heart is soft and she can understand. Also, I had an amazing conversation with a girl who is in all 3 speech-path. classes with me and her frined last night. We were taking a break from studying and started to talk about what we were currently working on in our spiritual lives. Turns out we were all studying the same thing! It is so encouraging to know that there are so many people out there who are working to achieve the same goal you are.

On another note, I have knocked out three quizzes and one exam. Well I do not know if I "knocked-out" the exam. It was so hard, like I read that chapter four times and there was still words on the exam that I have never seen before. Oh well I can't do anything about it now. Also, Phonetics seems to be getting a little better I only missed one on our practice exam this time and our professor seems to really want to help us. That is very encouraging. Now I have two presentations and an exam to do next week, but I know that everything will be okay. Today I just enjoyed not having to study anything but tom. I have to crack the whip again :*(

I feel a little bad because I am getting so drained from school this semester. I feel like I am not doing much with the college group out of studying with them, but I am also meeting some great people in the program. I hope that I allow God to use me to step out of my comfort zone and really get to know these girls (and the 2 guys) and reach out to them. This semester at first seemed like it was going to be a real drag but know I am so excited in what is going to happen this spring. Now only if Aunt Noreen can fulfill her promise of real snow that I can play in...
