goodbyes and hellos.

So, I'm very bad at writing in this thing and slightly inept when it comes to it. Today is a bitter sweet day. We are saying goodbye to my boss. Jordan was the person who started the Outdoor Pursuits Center at Texas Tech. The program that I am in is one of its kind and is being copied by other environmental education programs across America. He is known nation wide and admired. The O.P.C. is more than a job to any of us...it's a family. Spending weekends on trips leading, four hour work shifts, and giving/receiving feedback really gives you the opportunity to learn about others. It's hard though and this job has pushed me in sooo many ways.

So, awesome.

While I will miss the long haired hippie I am thankful for all that I've learned and I'm excited to see what is in the future for our program!

One of the coolest parts of our bosses is that they are more worried with grades than any part of our job. They push us to learn time management but to keep our focus on the things that are most important-grades and family.

I finally met with my professor for the research that I'm starting! She has me starting off by reading an article on pro-anna websites and then reading a real interview and taking notes as I analyze. Its confidential so I'm not allowed to even talk about it. It's sooo cool and I'm so excited to start. BUT! summer school has started so I'm making myself catch up there before I can read for research...bummer!!! She is being so nice and keeps reassuring me that there is no time limit and that once again school is way more important!


Super busy but super excited!

God is awesome.


who would have thought it would all be this way...

My new favorite chapter...
Psalm 46
