This has been a rough week and I came across this song by Kim Walker tonight. It was such an encoragement and brought me back to a proper outlook on life. I would almost dare say it is my current favorite, and that's a big deal. Lyrics below.
I have found a peace that plows on through the storm
I have found a joy that jumps over sadness
I have found a love that lights up every room
I have found...I found You
You are all i want, You are all i need
Everything my heart could hope for
We are longing for the glory of the Lord
Cause we know there's so much more
I have found a trust that teaches how to rest
I have found a grace that guides me by the hand
I have found a strength that stands like a mountain
I have found...I found You

...Snow...
We woke up Tuesday morning to a few inches of snow and it continued snowing throughout the day. It was so pretty here and made for lots of great pictures! Snow like this only happens about every other year, so we were outside by 8:00 am taking full advantage of it.
Whitney and Shannon found a wonderful place on the edge of campus to go sledding. We had so much fun sliding down the hill on old lunch trays! None of us were very prepared as far as snow clothes are concerned, but we endured the wet/cold for a few hours because it was great! I was very, very sore the next morning but it was well worth it.
Cancelled classes came at the best possible time. I was in desperate need of a catch-up day. I got some work done, but spent most of the day outside sledding, taking pictures, having snowball fights or collecting snow for snow cream. Snow cream is way up there on my favorite foods list. Like, way up there haha. We got about 5 inches total. Most of it has melted away now, but I wouldnt mind if it snowed again...soon!

Too Much Information
I've seen this on so many blogs lately and have really, I mean really, enjoyed reading them so I suppose I tag myself, and Marah later, to post lots of random information that most people may not know. So here goes more than you ever wanted to know about me...
- I absolutely love dark, rainy days.
- I hope to have many children one day, maybe 5 or 6. I think big families are really exciting.
- Other than my roommate, I am the most indecisive person I know.
- Speaking of roommates, I have the best one, ever!
- I am a grammar freak and probably too harsh on those who are not.
- I get my feelings hurt very easily, it's insane.
- I'm not a depressed person, but sad songs have always been my favorite.
- I very recently decided that I do want a tattoo, but in white ink. I said I would never, but that was until I saw one. Never say never.
- I have always wanted to take photography classes. That dream died when my parents told me I couldn't go to school for that. So I settled for something much more exciting. Accounting.
- I intend to travel somewhere outside of the country before I graduate. Which means I need to get a passort, soon!
- I took 4 years of Spanish in high school and seriously regret not continuing to learn the laguage here at Campbell because I have forgotten the majority of what I knew.
- I care way too much about what people think about me. Worrying about every word I say and move I make is really a hindrance to functioning normally, I think! I am improving though!
- Although I am only 19, I feel the need to get married quickly approaching. That could be a problem.
- I have yet to make anything other than an A while in college. But I know that sad, sad day is
coming soon.
- I misspelled the word poisonous in the 4th grade spelling bee and 10 years later, it still makes me mad.
- I buy buy books compulsively! It's so easy to get carried away on amazon or in Lifeway.
- Taylor Swift lyrics pretty much describe everything I have ever felt toward guys in my life.
- I am becoming obsessed with saving money and finding good deals. I am one of those "brings her calculator to the grocery store to get the most for her money" kind of women.
- I don't handle change very well. Although I know change is necessary sometimes, it is most always painful.
- Regardless of what anyone says, I am always right ; ).
20 things wasn't all that hard. Now it's your turn!
