Welp! Here I am again at the end of another semester stressed out and wanting to be in the arms of my mommy like nothing else. I’m not as crazy this go round since I learned a lot from my first week of finals, but can you blame me for wanting this to be over??? [...]

Nothing is Impossible

[insert dramatic music here] It’s that time of the semester again. Everything is due and I’m about ready to pull out my hair! But, I am determined to stay on top of things and not cry and curl up in the fetal position. That, however, is not the reason for this blog post. I am writing because [...]

This Too Shall Pass
March 26, 2012
— Life at Bethel
This week has been so stressful. I have endured pain on just about every level. I worked out and had some injuries, I was challenged mentally because I’m pretty sure I was assigned the most homework this semester. And to top it all off, I had to encounter the death of a beloved family friend [...]

Spring Forward, Pilots
March 19, 2012
— Life at Bethel
It’s the final countdown! Well, not really. But the days are quickly dwindling down until the completion of my first year here at Bethel College. It’s surreal, actually. It seems like just yesterday when I was jumping up and down in my kitchen with my acceptance letter in hand. All that aside, there are just [...]

All Work, you know?
March 13, 2012
— Life at Bethel
As Spring Break drew to a close, I found myself immediately thinking about the deadlines and projects that i would have to encounter. Almost instantly, I became frantic and started stressing out and freaking out over my ever growing to do list. I knew that I was going to have to calm down and relax [...]

Home Sweet Home…at last.
February 20, 2012
— Life at Bethel
There is something about coming home after a long while on campus. You get this feeling of refreshment that is simply indescribable. No, really. I feel my attempts to describe how amazing it is being home right now have failed tremendously. This is not to say that campus isn’t great. As a matter of fact, [...]

Opportunity is Knocking…
February 15, 2012
— Life at Bethel
With Spring Break rapidly approaching, I would just like to share the staus of how my mind is working at the moment: … And if you’re saying yourself there is nothing there, then yes, you are right. There is nothing there. This is because I am thinking of everything and nothing at the same time. [...]

Decisions, Decisions
February 6, 2012
— Life at Bethel
Going into this week, I had to do some definite self-evaluations. There were a lot of things due, a lot of meetings to attend, and many preparations to make for the opening of Little Women (P.S. you should definitely buy tickets to see the show…it’s going to be amazing). I found myself asking God for [...]

Ladies and Gentleman…the WCAC.
January 30, 2012
— Life at Bethel
This week, I was able to take part in the World Christian Action Conference. It was amazing to say the least and I know for sure that God moved in the hearts of a lot of students here on campus. First of all, the main speaker, R. York Moore, was phenomenal. I didn’t go to [...]

White Fluffy Stuff Falling from the Hands of God.

As I sit at the desk writing this post, I am noticing that it is once again snowing outside. Isn’t it wonderful? I mean, don’t get me wrong, I don’t like the fact that the wind changes directions every time I decide to walk outside as much as the next person, but there’s something about [...]

Time to Hit the Refresh Button
January 16, 2012
— Life at Bethel
It’s 2012, ladies and gentleman. You know what that means… It means that everyone has a new year’s resolution and they are going to try and make world changing promises to themselves before the world ends. By the way, I would just like to reassure everyone that the Mayans don’t know when the world ends [...]

A Light at the End of the Tunnel
December 12, 2011
— Life at Bethel
In the midst of preparing for Finals Week, there are many students (myself included) that may or may not be stressing about doing their last projects and finishing that last paper. It seems that studying for just that one test is completely overwhelming. But there is good news. It’s almost over. I know that for [...]

Time Flies When You’re At Bethel

In about 6 days, it’s going to be Thanksgiving Day. Ahhh, I’m so excited! I’m actually experiencing a plethora of emotions. I have so much to do in so little time as far as homework, but I know that all the stress is going to be worth it. It also makes me think that once [...]

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year…or something.

Thanksgiving break is over and there approximately only two more weeks until semester break. That means I get to go home and spend time with my family. I get to enjoy Christmas and New Year’s and it’s going to be great. This also means that it’s smooth sailing from here and I don’t have to [...]

Waiting on God…
November 15, 2011
— Life at Bethel
Sometimes, I’m really too anxious for my own good. I let my emotions get the best of me and that often results in me taking on much more than I can bear. It allows me to think about Jesus in a sense though. Too often, I feel that we pray and while we talk to [...]

This weekend, I have the amazing opportunity to be a part of the crew for the Women of Lockerbie theater producation at Bethel. I must say that it is one of the most impactful shows I’ve ever seen. I wouldn’t want to give too much away. You’d have to see it to believe it. But all [...]

RE-Igniting a Passion
November 6, 2011
— Life at Bethel
For the last 24 hours, I was able to spend time with God and get my soul on fire for Him all over again. It was amazing. The Ignition Retreat took place this weekend. The theme was New Frontiers and I feel that even though I have been on campus for less than an hour, [...]

My Whole Life!
October 24, 2011
— Life at Bethel
Over the course of the semester, being involved in the Hobbit has most definitely peaked my interest in the theater program. And while my English Education courseload won’t allow me to take on a theatre minor, it is always interesting to be a part of drama club and do things with the beautiful people of [...]

I Miss College! Or do I…?
October 20, 2011
— Life at Bethel
Fall break has started, but I find myself a little sad because I’m away from campus right now. I love the fact that I get to see my family, but I realize that once you’ve spent some time getting to know new people and doing new things that you start to miss it. For example, [...]

Honorary Mascots
October 11, 2011
— Life at Bethel
I love the fact that every time I walk to class on Bethel’s campus, I find that I am encountering a new species. And I’m not talking about the guys here either I’m talking about the fact that as I was on my way to breakfast one moning, I thought I saw a stork that [...]
