Welcome back BeveCaba

BEV IS BACK!!!

I called her as soon as I finished my last final exam:) I don't know how well I did this week, but I finished 6 exams in 3 days. It feels good to be done.
Bev and I had a fun lunch date at Panera Bread. We talked for 2 hours!! It was wonderful to hear about Saipan and friends. We agreed that God has a special time and place where He wants us. We happened to be in Saipan during the right time when HE wanted us there. It was a beautifully spiritual and eye-opening experience :)

I'm glad you're back Bev!

mondays

This is Monday
Can you tell?
It's gloomy outside
It's gloomy in here

It's definitely Monday.


That's my thought for today-

I've accomplished nothing today. I studied at Rons last night and fell asleep on his couch while he watched his cartoons. He woke me up and sent me home to sleep. What a good man :)
I went home, slept, and didn't wake up until 10. Then I got up watched a movie as I ate my home-made granola my mom sends me. I feel weak today- I think it's because I gave blood for the first time on saturday. Travis says I need iron...red meat...I hate eating moo moo.
Anyways- I figure I better get out of my room, so I got my toes painted next to Fox coffee and am sitting here now passing time.
I have a group meeting at four. We are finishing a project to present at our cognitive fair. It's actually really interesting. We've done some research on the topics of abstraction and mental flexibility. We found ways to help individuals that struggle in these areas be successful. An example would be a child who cannot switch from topic to topic in a conversation does not have very good mental flexibility. I believe the child may just need some practice, so I'll give him some practice games such as, Bop it or Slap Jack. These games will help the child practice mentally switching from one task to another slowly then quickly as he/she progresses.
okay, so maybe ya'll didn't want to know all that, but I was bored. Thanks for reading.

Have an amazing day. I'll go get some iron.

Peace out-

O Hum BUG!

Books!
I'm so sick of reading and studying books today.
Thank God for blogging-this will be my short break. :P

My friend has just about talked me into running Redlands half marathon on Sunday. I haven't been training so this could be really bad. I've spent to much time analyzing the situation and have decided to do what I want to do. That is run ....i guess. Gosh, I hate being a girl. So indecisive.

I just finished a book for a religion class called The Sunflower. I would recommend to anyone who's interested. It's about a Jewish man who is asked by a Nazi for forgiveness. The Jewish man doesn't know what to say and walks out. The question asked to me, the student, is what would I do? Honestly, I would do 2 things. First, tell the Nazi to ask for God's forgiveness, because I don't know if I can. Second, I would pray that God forgive me and my feelings towards him.
If you get a chance read the book. It's very thought provoking and captures your being to that time and place.

Okay- sorry guys. I just finished my paper, so that's on my mind.

Happy Sabbath! I'm so glad it's Friday :)
