Early Morning Post: Day 4

I think a more apt name might be just "The Morning Post" based on my latest writings, but as posting early in the morning remains my goal, I'll just leave it. It's 9:11 A.M. on a Wednesday morning. It almost couldn't get any more normal-sounding than that. It is finals week (or for me, final week) as well as the week leading up to going on vacation with my friend, Kayla and her family. I'm honestly not too sure what to be writing about right now except for maybe the things going on in my life. I've been studying Anatomy and Physiology a lot this week, when I'm not working on my newest hobby (more on that in the future) or reading To Kill a Mockingbird or hanging out with Jake or friends. That new hobby which I'm opting to not talk about yet and remain mysterious about is really exciting to me and I look forward to see what will come of it. Hopefully I'll be able to share it in the not-so-distant future.
ANywho...
That might do it for me this wednesday morning.

Christmas Eve Eve

Today is Christmas Eve Eve. I worked almost all day. I'm very thankful for the hours and I didn't have other plans so I didn't mind being there. One of my managers kept asking me if I was in a bad mood though. I think 3 times she asked me this today between the two shifts that I worked. At first I just thought I wasn't really paying attention to my facial expressions since I was busy and tired (I tend to look mad when I'm not paying attention and tired). Then I started thinking about it more and I realized that maybe there was something wrong deep down and I hadn't even noticed it. There has been quite a bit on my mind for the past few months and especially this past week or so- I had noticed that- but I didn't know it had gotten to me so much. I am thankful though because it gives me an opportunity to give the burden to the Lord. This whole thing has made me think that even though there is noticeably something on my heart the fact that Christmas i...

Post Prompts I

I googled blog post prompts just for fun and found a website with a whole bunch. Rather than writing whole posts on some of the topics, I decided to do interview style responses. Write about the first time you broke the law. When I was 4, stole a handful of grass seed from a store. Felt awful but never admitted to it untill way later. They knew I was lying but never prosecuted (is it even possible to prosecute a 4 year old?). I discarded the evidence onto their lawn as soon as I got out of the store (I guess that was sort of smart). Why grass seed? Good question. Your favorite vacation spot or place that you've traveled to. An Island in Malaysia called Redang. Everything about that place looked like those tropical photos you secretly doubt the existence of. Straight up B-E-A-U-tiful. Write about the passing of a loved one. My Grandma died 2 years ago on the 4th of July (ironic, don't you think?). For me, the whole experience wa...

The Crisis by Ennio Morricone

I think this song is beautiful. And I didn't even realize that I thought so until now even though I've heard it before. I'm a sucker for movie music because it's usually sort of dramatic and I like dramatic music. I like that aspect of the song. I also like that it has a jazzy feel to it and that it just has a pretty melody to it. What really made me realize that I like this song though is that almost right off the bat, you can hear what sounds like a mistake- but the song continues on. This song has a unique form of beauty in music- the mix of conventional beauty with one more unique that sounds like a mistake at first. There's something beautiful to me about continuing on-despite the "mistake" (although I'm pretty sure in the case of this song, the "mistake" isn't really a mistake). Maybe it's because I know my very apparent need for grace, my need for the love of God to continue to me despite my mistakes. He...
