Aww...
Yeah, wasn't too long ago I was feeling the exact same way...but hey, hold out for that special guy who's gonna fall head over heels for the crazy-fun, special, beautiful person that is you, my friend
it's the waiting that's hard but...when the right person comes around, it will be *totally* worth it
Isreal for 6-27 *months*? wow...that's going to be hard...and I'm guessing there will not be much opportunity for internet chatting/emailing...so I can see where that would be really hard
If you have time before your friend leaves, I would be hanging out w/ her like crazy before then so that at least you have some fun times before she'll be gone for that period of time.
As for the other news, that sounds *great!*
I can totally see you eyeing the gems as they're being cut, eyes kinda glistening as you keep whispering, "shiny...*my* shiny..." or something along those lines
I can see you're going to be enjoying classes
As for me, I'm going to be taking (in case you haven't seen my journal) Photography 3, Photoshop 1, Painting 1, and General Psychology. ^^ should be fun
Relationship-wise, things are pretty much the same with my family as they have always been, though my dad keeps having little memory issues
lol, makes it *so* much easier when he's already more grouchy than usual
As for David and I, we've been going out for nearly a year now (10 months, 11 as of Sept. 2) and we've come to a point now where we're pretty sure of where God's leading
In another note, would you believe I *finally* got my room done? XD
yeah, I'll be using that canopy you gave me back in HS
The room is garden themed, so it'll be quite pretty as soon as we can get the painting done and such ^^
nothing more I can think of at the moment, so I guess I'll chat with you again later
If you'd like, I can keep you in my prayers...I hope things will be looking up for you soon...
