I think I just realized- I'M GOING TO BRAZIL IN LESS THAN FIVE DAYS!! AHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *Runs around the room screaming* *falls on butt and laughs histerically* o my gosh! !!!!YAY!!!   

Wow. major weird rush of emotions there, haha.

This past week has been the most horrible, awful, WONDERFUL week EVER. Today i just feel so good!

Yesterday I deyed my hair purple again- because I just wanted to- watched the movie Red Eye, got three new books at Barnes and Noble, and joked around with my Mom and her roomate, Beth. I was on the worship team that morning, too. Our church also prayed for the Brazil team (seeing as half of us are leaving next Saturday. Go Alpha team! Woot!) and i got SO energized by the congregation and their support.

Plus. I sang really really well. I felt like I just poured my heart and soul into the words. And I know I sounded good :). I love that feeling. You know, when you realize that you've done a good work, and hit the bullseye exactly, and then have that amazing rush of happiness and gratitude and pride in yourself? Mm. It makes me feel good inside.

I'm also smiling because SAMMI (smileigh) CAME BACK FOR THE WEEKEND!!! I got to spend three days with her! 

She came back cuz of the Brazil Lock In Friday night, and stayed at Em's house all day  Saturday and Sunday. Jesse, Em, Katie and I all got to hang out with her Saturday (we went park hopping, lol) and Jesse even came to church Sunday! Something he NEVER does and will probably never do again..

Today I get to send Anna off to her friend Hannah's house until supper time. So I get the whole day to myself. I'm gonna be packing like crazy, washing clothes and underwear and jeans just for Brazil (we get to leave half our stuff we bring in Brazil! Not the underwear, don't worry, haha). I'll be listening to my new music mix that Em made for me, maybe reading a little bit, making my house pretty, gardening, writing... I love being home alone!

Something else that happened.. Jadon prayed over me yesterday morning. And he actually touched me, haha. It was just putting his arm around me and one hand on my knee, then our heads were touching cuz we were leaning towards each other. :)

OH GOSH! I just realized I never posted about what's up with me and him!

Well about three weeks ago Jadon asked permission from my Dad to date me. My Daddy said yes- so he and I are now officially together! I know, scary right? But this time both of our parents endorse it and love that its happening. (Which is really new for me, here! haha).    

:) :) :) :) :) :) :)

I'm smiling like crazy now. Life is horribly good. AAHHH I"M GOING TO BRAZIL!!!!

P.S- the song that's been going through my head recently- one of the only good Hillary Duff songs, in my opinon... It kinda matches what I'm feeling right now..
