BORED!

Hi everyone!

I'm enjoying this blog because it gives me something to do! It's been hard going from always having plans with so many people to not having anything to do sometimes all day!! In the next few days, I should work on getting my stuff packed up to go back to Mad-town, but I feel like I don't have all that much stuff so it shouldn't take too long. Having a lot of down time has been kind of nice though, because I've been able to sleep in (something I hardly did ALL summer!!), and I've also found a new appreciation for reading. I've accumulated so many books or heard about so many books that I've been dying to read, but never really had the motivation to read. This summer, we didn't have any TV and had limited access to the Internet, so we had to find other ways to fill our free time. We all read a book called "Don't Waste Your Life" by John Piper for our Bible studies and I found it pretty relaxing to just sit on one of the patios or on the beach and read. Since being home, I started reading "Blue Like Jazz" by Donald Miller. It's pretty much this guy, the author, talking about his life and the highs and lows of his faith. I'm just a little more than halfway through it, but I love it! I love the way he writes and it's cool to read about someone else's walk and gain insight on different aspects of spirituality and Christianity. So, I definitely recommend it! :)

Well, I don't have much else to say, so I'm going to save you guys the agony of reading my blabbing. Have a good morning/day/night! :)
