And not many people read this so I can share my excitement mostly with myself...
I MADE THE DEAN'S LIST AGAIN!
Barely... but still.
Here's what happened for which I was very excited:
Intro to Programming in C++, thought I was going to get a D (deserved an F); got a B.
Differential Equations, thought I was going to get a B (deserved a C); got a B+.
Geology Lab, though I was going to get a B (probs deserved a B); got an A-.
Ear Training, deserved a B- ; got an A.
History and Analysis of Musical Style: I GOT AN A! That made me happier than everything else I'm pretty sure.
There was one class I got an A- in that I thought I was going to get an A in, but the 4 A- 's I got were all in 1 credit classes so it didn't mess me up too bad.
Needless to say, I'm glad this semester is over, but it has been fun. I'm so relieved that my grades checked out okay and I'm pretty elated that my grades exceeded expectations. That was all God's doing and I am praising Him so much right now!
And now... I am getting excited to be reunited with my good friend over coffee, silliness, conversation, and quality time! <3

So Here's What I've Noticed:
No matter how many times I say something to someone else, it never stops me from acting in a contradictory manner. 'Tis the nature of the circle of life/humans though I suppose.
I've also noticed that finals suck a lot, and that even though I am very much aware and hopeful that my GPA does not determine my salvation, I still feel quite overwhelmed with school.
So I'm praying for peace and joy, and I'm also rejoicing in my Hope!
Despite the fact that I have a total of 11 finals, 4 Christmas parties, 1 baby-sitting gig, and 1 performance, not to mention 3 more days of classes, studying, homework, studying, forgetting to eat, studying, drinking too much caffeine, studying, getting distracted by facebook and Youtube videos, studying, OH AND MORE STUDYING, I think that I am joyful. More so than I ever have been during this time of the semester.
So God is good, basically. Like I legitimately have no adequate words to describe how good He is, but I can tell you that I do not measure up and am so unworthy of His love. And goodness gracious, I am SO thankful that Jesus interceded for me so I could be freed from the bondage of sin that separates me from God.
And when you think about it, that's all that really matters.
A lot of people (myself included) miss the point of salvation. We do tend to get wrapped up in the world, don't we? Especially this time of the year. 'Tis the season, indeed.
As for me, "I celebrate the day that You were born to die so I could one day pray for You to save my life."
Hallelujah, Amen.

A List
Today I made a short list of 3 things I will really miss about this semester and three things I will really NOT miss this semester. So here it is:
Things I will miss:
1. Being an OL
2. HAMS part 1
3. My friends who will be leaving/moving/graduating
Things I will NOT miss:
1. Differential Equations
2. Computer Programming
3. Resources Geology
I realize that most of these things are about school. But I guess it makes sense because I'm talking in terms of semesters. Oh well.
I miss lots of things. Like my friends. A lot of my friends I haven't seen in a while. And for some reason I'm feeling more... sentimental today? I'm also just tired of school. But it's whatever.
A lot's going on, but I haven't processed it yet, so I shall just say that God is always good. And God is always faithful to do what's best for us when we trust in Him even if it's not fun or doesn't feel good. Which is unfortunate, but then again we're the ones who sin and separate ourselves from God, so I'm pretty excited about the fact that He still loves me. So. Yes.
