Hey, look, I have a blog....
I admit it, I forgot I have a blog...... It was lost in the whirlwind of the holidays, the procrastination of winter break, and the general din of life. Thankfully, I never ceased taking photos. I stopped editing them though, which leaves me with a task on par with fitting an elephant through the eye of a needle. Lord-willing, I will be able to squeeze some time out each week and update my blog with a post and at least a few pictures.
As I'm sure all six of you are wondering, my holidays were great :P Thanksgiving at the Burgs was amazing. An equally entertaining Christmas was spent at my Uncle's Christmas Eve (The funniest game of Apples to Apples ever), followed by a wonderfully closed Christmas morning with just my family. A trip to DC, where my Grandparents live, completed the festivities.
And so ends a wonderful year.....
2010, do you say it as twenty-ten, or as two-thousand-ten? I'm still not sure. With the new year, I can look back and see the abundant ways God has shaped my life. At the beginning of 2009, I truly lacked goals. This is something I think God changed in me, I have an idea of what I want to do, and the way the Lord is leading. It's just a matter of being patient, which can be exceptionally trying sometimes. He's also brought several new friends into my life, all of whom are completely encouraging and exceptionally inspiring.
Friday was my 18th birthday. I am now an adult, full of wisdom(I know, you're like "....What?" JK) and "legally" responsible. I have a new job that I love and I am working on graduation plans with my homeschool group. It's exciting, yet it leaves me wondering about the future.
I am working on a batch of photos and they should be up this week. Feel free to visit my flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/intelligentdesigninc/
and leave a few comments.
Also, due to the inspiration and encouragement of a friend ;) I may try my hand at some poetry in the near future. Hopefully you'll be able to stomach it, and continue to visit my page.
