dorm times
Mysteries of the girls dorm:
# 1: bathroom counters.
I am still amazed at the amount of junk girls use in their daily beautification rituals.
# 2: closets.
Okay, I don't mind confessing that everything on the left...is my stuff. Shoes are necessary.
Many shoes are necesarry, i.e. the Jesus sandals, the vans, the chucks, the "nice" shoes, the surfer flips, the dance shoes, the workout tennies, and the climbing shoes...all necessary. As for everything to the
right side of the closet...I won't name names (Janece).
Here's my cozy study/sleep/lounge/prayer/talk/office/work space. Those ALOHA sheets...are Jeanette's.
And my baby (slash gat).

door signs
My girls have it so good, they don't even know. Last semester my door decorations were pretty hideous.
But this semester...
Tell me that's not classy. Look, you can even make it a fantastic close-up b&w shot. See mom, I don't hate art as much as you think I do.

first day of school
So, these are my cute little first semesters on their first big day of school! I made them all line up and wave bye bye.
Cathrin, Courtney, and Samantha. Aren't they adorable??

boooo
Well, bummer news of the semester...I've already lost one of my dorm children. It seems like we just got to know and love Michelle before she had to split back to Washington. She was my only blond quarter-Japanese tomodachi.
The true feelings come out...
If you would, keep praying for her, that God would give her strength and good health, and that she would be a light and a testimony of Jesus to all her friends and loved ones back home. We miss you, Michelle!!

meet the roomies!
I apologize, I've been a terrible slacker at updating lately. But I
finally got some pics of my roomies, and will have more to come. Promise.
As a female dorm steward, I guess I'm expected to garnish the door with name signs worthy of a magazine cover. (Since that's pretty much what all the other female dorm stewards did for their girls.) Well. They were arriving like the next day, and all I had were left over papers and crayons (and little to no artistic ability). Doh!
Jeanette did my name and convinced me to put it in the middle "as a joke". And poor Sarah's blew off the door and flew two stories down into a muddy bush and sat there for three days in the rain before I found it when I was landscaping. What must they think of me.
Well, without further ado...the Monterrey 166 posse :
L-R, bighead, Alysia, Ryan, Sarah, and Michelle.
We went to In-N-Out (もっと ちょう おいしい だよ!!) for our Sunday night dorm meeting and just chilled. They're all super funny and amazing. I got blessed.
Pray for us, that our room would be a place of unity and peace filled with the love of Jesus.

two amazing things
Two amazing things.
Tomorrow (or technically today since it's past midnight) I'm flying to Dallas to stay with this crazyace for about a month.
And two, that there is an official dorm steward acceptance letter. Ooooh yessss...
こわい。And not just the picture.
Well, I'll leave you with this, a reoccuring theme in my life as of late:
You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with your whole heart. [ Jeremiah 29:13 ] Mmm, to have a heart that wholly seeks after God.
