A Little R&R

I have been having such a wonderful break from my hectic college life. Plus it's always wonderful to be back home with the folks. God has really blessed me. I am so thankful for my loving family. Being away from home it is so easy to lose sight of this blessing and so many more. I had a bit of a wake up to this fact a few days a go. I watched the documentary God Grew Tired of Us. It was soooo good and I recommend that everyone see it. It really made me think about American society and how it is often perceived by foreigners (like the Lost Boys). I have been really blessed to get some rest this break too. I think I have slept until like 11 or noon every day of this vacation... I'm not gonna lie, it has been great. I do feel the need for structure again though and I thank the Lord for this new year, a time to start afresh and try new things.
A few of the things I would hope to fulfill this 2010 year:
1. Grow in my relationship with God
2. Grow in my relationship with my parents
3. Read my Bible mucho más
4. Learn to sew for reals
5. Make more friendships
6. Get a bit more organized
7. Take a genuine interest in topics I study in class
8. Go rock climbing, hiking, and/or backpacking
9. Laugh a lot a lot
10. Get to know one professor well.
