heaven & co

1) Travel the world. Seriously. I've saving now. I want to go everywhere!
2) Learn how to swim!

*sigghhhh. It's been a long night. All I want to do is sleep.

I just spend the entire afternoon filling out scholarship applications.
The whole family's talking about the powerball. People be gettin' crazay.
Didn't have to go to work today and I think that that's God's way of telling me to stop procrastinating and to do my homework, forreals.
I just want school to end, please.

But each day the Lord pours His unfailing love upon me,
and through each night I sing His songs,
praying to God who gives me life.
- Psalm 42:8

"Tell her that the only way her heart will mend is when she learns to love again. And it won't make sense for now but she's still a friend and then you let her down easy ... "

• Finally talked to mis padres about college .... ahhhhhh! so excited! :)
• God willing, I will be teaching Sunday school next year. I'm pretty stoked for that as well.
• I'm very excited for Christmas. 

Christmas is only 8 weeks away and I know that may seem so far from now, but it's really not. I literally have one more week left of school before Thanksgiving break and then before I know it, it'll be 2013! ;) I honestly wouldn't mind if we skipped Thanksgiving and moved right along into Christmas time. :)

Pretty wrapped presents ..

I seem to have grown to love everything about Christmas time ... this year. :) The lights, the starbucks every now and then, the cold weather and big puffy knits, the Christmas trees through people's windows, the holiday spirit and everyone's cheerful hearts. It's just a happy time! I cannot wait until they start playing Christmas music on the radio. I feel so nostalgic when I hear Christmas music. It just feels like a movie. Ever felt like that? *sigh. What a nice feeling it is. :)

A couple weeks ago, I watched two Christmas movies. So fun! I love hearing the Christmas music play in there, too. Don't you just love the times in movies where the music plays and there's a Christmas party or some rushed Christmas shopping at the mall? hahahaha. :)

I've been doing all sorts of things to get myself even more excited for Christmas. I've bought my wrapping paper, some tissue paper, kraft wrapping paper to do creative wrapping, and tape! I'm so glad I went ahead and started doing some Christmas shopping already! :) I've pinned all sorts of DIY's on pinterest, too. :)

Anyway! This shall be an exciting Christmas. :) Maybe during Christmas break, I'll do Christmas DIY's. I'm gonna go find a Christmas movie to watch now. :)
