finished

SO, i would say that i have a new chapter beginning in my life. Not too much has changed, but i am not finished with school for the time being!!

Which meansss.... i need a job. And soon.

(hint) pray!

Jobs are hard to find. I am looking at Memorial Hospital in York, Ephrata Community (who i really hope calls me up for an interview.. i really like it there) and Lancaster Surgical Associates (where my dad just got his surgery. no holidays or weekends!!)

i dunno. i know God has a plan for me. i know that if none of those work, that there is something even better that will come along and "fit".

i am helping carrie start to pack her stuff in a few hours. i was at walmart a little bit ago trying to find boxes. everyone was really nice, but i didnt get very many big ones. apparently they dont start on those till around now, and i wasnt hanging around!! maybe adam can dig some up at starbucks.

cori is leaving for africa. for two weeks. i will miss that girly.

She Learned Perspective from Egyptian Art

Dude: Remember that barge that was right on the horizon of the beach on Sunday?
Chick: Yeah, why?
Dude: How far away do you think it was?
Chick: I have no clue. A thousand feet, maybe?
Male passenger: Actually, the horizon at sea level is six to eight miles away.
Chick: So, less than a thousand feet?

......simply amazing. haha. wish i was there for this.

TV has a whole new meaning.

so anyways. yes. the afore mentioned party happened in june or something. A while ago. But i have to catch up and update on stuff like that.

im dead tired from clinical today. I am at Kissel Hill this week.. so i get a lot of one on one attention (which i like and need) because there is only one tech and one room. To make up for some missed hours i was there from 730 to 1800. (6pm) its like 10 hours.

Yesterday was the last church picnic.. I met some new girls. Its ALWAYS hard to extend myself but im getting better, and like everything: it requires practice. I met stephanie from the Corning NY church who is living with the Garbers for 3 yrs. Hopefully she will like us and stay. *wink* And i met jocelyn who just returned home from Taiwan after living there for 2 years as a volunteer english teacher. Anyways i hope i can reach out to these girls and get them to come to YACG.

So, I am unsure of whether or not the photos from "the 80's Dance Party" have yet to circle the blogger audience. And if they have not, they will now. Here it goes. Here we are. The rad and totally unbogus happens of the evening.

...sorry if i forgot anyone...

This is obviously a hot 80's dance move. Obviously.

Keira is such a minich. Look at that smile.

I love this kid. the cool. the collected.- john haughery loving every synth beat..

My heart is heavy for the haughery's and allen's tonight... i followed emily's updates all day long, and could hardly contain the tears that welled up in my eyes when i read of the final decision. my throat hurt, and eyes burned b/c i had to maintain a professional demeanor...i was working at NORLANCO ultrasound in etown today.

oh sometimes i wish i knew what to do. my god give us all grace to know how to care for these families, how to relate to them. my approach is simply to be sincere....

i would have a major temptation to read condolances with remorse- look at these people who are sorry, but still able to move on with their "normal" lives... how dare they try to comfort me...

but god is so gracious and sent his only son to die for sins like one i just described...

the equivalent of breakfast for my blog

i am breaking the unintentional fast from this blog.....



now that adam has done whatever had to be done to my laptop so that it would go on the internet, it will be somewhat easier to keep a log of sorts for my own personal record. of course i dont mind if others participate in my life in this way... life is about relationships. plus i dont get to see people much... with this rigorous schedule and all.



oh man. school has been tough. people have said that this program is the hardest thing they have ever done, but somehow i was like.. sure, it cant be THAT hard. but yeah. its tough. i had a test on gyn pathology today. i seriously never thought i would become an expert in everything pertaining to gyn. ... but it is becoming reality.



ask me anything. hah.



but i did get a letter today stating that i made dean's list for spring semester. i was excited about that ... i originally thought the envelope contained a bill or something.

tonight was captivating.. the bible study. i love those girls. and probably always will. if in the distant future i see one of them at a grocery store i will be ecstatic to see her and eager to catch up, its that pure joy of knowing youre a part of God's family.. something huge, something unstoppable. I delight in seeing how God works in people's lives... especially those who've i have lost contact with for a period of time. (not leaving out the people im closest to... its a joy to walk with them in the faith... )

ok im done here. im tired.
