$70

yesterday was the opening of the art show here on campus.

I actually had 3 pieces accepted into the show, as well as one entered in the competition for the cover of the program.

one piece won the merit award for a non-art major, which was $50.

I also won $20 for getting 3rd place in the cover competition.

so overall, I won $70, woot woot!!!!

I feel like such a boss, haha.

mom and dad came over to see me and to see my art.

almost over

today was my last day at home before heading back to school tomorrow.

Angela spent the night last night, so we were pretty lazy for the majority of the day.

tonight, I went to see a movie, Beastly, with Angela, Erin and Cacy.

we had such a good time, singing in the car, eating dinner at the Ellis house beforehand, giggling during the movie, laughing, enjoying each others presence.

it was wonderful.

I'm so thankful for such grand friends.

my spring break has been pretty empty, but I rather enjoyed it.

I've really enjoyed being home and doing absolutely nothing for a solid week.

dad and I went to the superman museum in metropolis on Tuesday.

then we went to St. Louis Zoo and art museum on Wednesday.

 

other than that, my week was filled with random time spent with friends and family and by myself.

a little shopping, a lot of hang time with my friends, a lot of time spent with my family, a little time at the hair salon, lots about the wedding.

there's only 77 days until the wedding, it's crazy.

that means there are only 87 days until I leave for Ukraine.

wow, time is flying by.

I feel like I just found out about my internship yesterday.

I'm getting really excited!

support raising is definitely not my favorite part, but I had about 51% of my funds already.

which is awesome, praise God!

I think I'm starting to get a little sick.

my nose is stopped up and I've had a bit of a headache.

and just overall not feeling well.

hopefully it goes away soon.

I'm headed to bed, so I hope to feel better when I wake up in the morning.

SB '11

spring break is finally here!

I've been home since Friday afternoon, and I've been enjoying every minute of it.

yesterday, mom and I went shopping for clothes/shoes for my internship this summer.

we went to Paducah for the day, and it was a lot of fun.

my friend Becca from school came over last night and we just hung out.

and she got to go to church with me this morning.

I actually got up in front of the congregation this morning to talk about my internship to Ukraine this summer.

I was super nervous, but Angela was there with me, so it wasn't too bad. 

I'm getting really excited about going and all that God has in store for this summer and for the people of Ukraine.

God has some awesome things He's going to do.

I'm just glad He's chosen me to be apart of it.

I don't really have any plans for this week.

getting my hair trimmed, going to take Gracie & Kaylynn to lunch tomorrow, taking photos, hanging out with my parents, hanging out with my BFFs, relaxing, doing nothing, not worrying about work, not worrying about schoolwork.

I've been waiting for a break, it's wonderful.
