Now or Never

*Yes, the title of this blog comes from a High School Musical Song. (: I thought it was appropriate.

Okay, so I've really been thinking about this a lot lately. Probably more than a normal person would, but since I'm basically living a life of solitude I don't have much more to do. Anyways, I've decided I'm going to rush this fall.
I have many different reasons, but the major ones are that it will be a good way to minister to people that are usually forgotten, and it will kinda give me something that is my own. As much as I'm looking forward to living with 6 girls next year, I am slightly worried about us getting sick of each other. Since we are all involved in the same things, I figure this will be a good way for me too have an outlet. I know myself, and sometimes I get annoyed with people just because I'm constantly around them. And many times that annoyance leads to a snide or just mean remark that I wouldn't usually say. So, by joining a sorority I will be able to have other friends and activities to do I wouldn't have else wise. That being said, I don't want you all to think I don't want my future housemates to rush. If they want to, by all means I'm completely a-okay with that! There are just so many different opportunities available to college students, and I'm afraid if I don't that advantage now I will regret it later. I am glad that I waited to rush though. If I would have rushed last fall I probably would have been overwhelmed with all the changes, and of course there's a really good chance I wouldn't have met you awesome Cru people. So, thoughts? Do you think I'm crazy, or I should. While it may not change my mind, I will listen and consider what you have to say. :)
Now, here's one thing I have to ask from you all - if, at any time I start bailing on Cru events for no reason at all or engage in activities I shouldn't as a Christian, please let me know. While I want to be involved in whatever sorority I (may) decide to join, Cru will always be my priority... I just want you, and myself, to always remember that.

On a completely different note. I've still yet to find a job. Which is a major bummer. I was hoping to have had one for the past month, but there just isn't anything available in Georgetown. So I've now started apply in Lexington, and hoping I can find one for the month of July at least.
Also, Netflix.com is going to ruin my life. I've been watching too many tv shows and movies on there. At least it is something to do while I have no job, and subsequently no life. I just have to forget about all the different possibilities available to me once school starts, I could end up being in some major trouble academically. (:

Where Do We Go From Here

So, I'm back in Georgetown again... which is cool. I guess.
It's hard to explain, but it's just so strange being back. It kinda sucks though, because Katherine isn't going to be here over the summer. Anyways, I never realized how completely boring Georgetown is. There is seriously nothing to do. Nothing. Tomorrow I'm going hardcore job hunting. I've applied online at a few different places - Cracker Barrel, Tractor Supply, Kohls, and the Horse Park. It'd be awesome if I could find a job in the next couple of days. Cause I REALLY need to save money for school and rent and stuff for the upcoming school year. Just pray for me I guess. I really hope to find a positive environment, since my last two jobs didn't exactly exude spiritual encouragement. Or really much encouragement at all actually. I guess I'll just wait it out and have faith that He knows where I'm headed.
Anyways little blog, I've been incredibly boring lately. I've been up to things, but nothing all that interesting. But, I guess I'll be posting again later this week. That is, if I haven't died from boredom first. :) On the positive side, it's nice to be free from school for the next few months... even thought I am already stressed about next semester. :/

Something 'Bout a Woman

So, today I've been thinking about how different boys and girls are. I don't really know exactly why I started thinking about this... but I'm gonna say it's because I was listening to Lady Antebellum's song 'Something 'Bout a Woman'.
Anyways, I just thought it's so weird how we are so different, but we are really almost exactly the same. I mean, when God created Eve he used Adam. And besides the obvious differences many would claim we are incredibly similar. But as far as thought process and things of that nature it seems like we grew up on different planets. While boys are typically pretty straight forward with what they mean, girls can beat around the bush. I don't really know why I'm sharing this with you blog... I just wonder if other people think about this sort of stuff too. Probably not, but I'm okay with that.
On a completely different note... today is my last full day in CP. The other night we watched the last movie ever on Clifton's T.V. with it still being in CP. At the time I didn't realize it, but now I wish I would have enjoyed the moment more. It's weird to say I guess, but it just seems like there are so many 'lasts' that are happening currently. There are just as many 'firsts' right around the corner though. Yesterday Me, Amanda, and Lainey hung out for most of the day. Which was AWESOME! We went to the waterfront and relaxed. I think I may have got a little sun, but I may just be telling myself that. After the waterfront we went to Kroger to get some food to make for dinner. It was incredibly nice, the three of us doing that. It made me want to live in our house even more. We ended up going back to Lainey's current apartment and made chicken fettuccine Alfredo. It was delicious. And there were brownies... and everyone know brownies can't be bad. :) After our dinner we sorta helped Clifton and Drew move Clifton's stuff into Amanda and Amber's living room. In case anyone is actually reading this... he isn't living there, just using their house to hold some of his things like his T.V. until the people in his house move out. By helping him move, I mean carrying little tiny things that hardly weigh anything at all... and holding doors open and stuff. After that us girls stayed and talked a little while. You know, about girl things and such. Then we came back to my room and talked with Clifton for a few hours. It was nice just being able to relax and hang out with friends. Have I told you yet that I love summer?
Well, now that you know basically everything I did yesterday, I need to get ready for today so I can tell you about it tomorrow. Until next time.

Everybody's Changing, and I Don't Feel the Same.

So, right now I am in Jon and Seth's room. Oddly enough neither one of them are in here. Noah and Drew are playing Halo... surprise right? Anyways, I moved out some of my things today. My parents and sister came up and took the big, bulky things that wouldn't fit in to little ol' Janice. Things like my T.V., white shelving unit, and wire organizer. It's so strange - my room is empty(ish) and all unorganized. Not that it was ever that organized to begin with. :) It's really sad to be moving out of CP. I'm excited about living in the house with the girls next semester. Not only because I will be living with them, but because I will have a kitchen and an actual yard. Things I took for granted before I moved out for college. Welp, I guess that's all for now little blog. Next time I may be back in my tiny hometown. Oh, how the times have changed. :)
