2010 in Review
I feel like 2010 was a big year for me. It started out pretty rough, with anxiety, loneliness, and winter blues, but thankfully got better as time went on. I hope and pray that 2011 will continue to look up.

Tall Vs Short
Yesterday, a really tall friend of my parents’ that used to work with my Dad, came to our house for a visit. He happens to be an alum from the same college I go to with a biology degree also.
Yesterday…
Since I’m cheap, I only brought a few souvenirs home from Florida. Florida oranges and an illness. Yep, I started getting sick the day we left Florida. I think I caught a cold from my little cousins. It’s been irritating my throat and making it so I can’t talk loud at all and sound raspy [...]
Let There Be Light!
Originally, I bought this lamp to use it in my dorm room at AU because it went perfect with my brown/pink comforter. However, when I moved back home, it just ended up in my room and has been there since. I’ve always wanted to replace it since the colors never matched, but I never got [...]
Lunch Date at Sybill’s Saint James
With the Canon 7D, I captured a mother-daughter lunch date to one of our local favorites. Nothing other than Sybill’s Saint James, a fine-dining restaurant perfectly placed in a small, rural town. When inside, you forget that you passed a field of cows and hay-bales on the way. It can be as formal as you [...]
Class of 2010
On May 22,2010, my brother, Steven, graduated from High School. In all honesty, we were never quite sure if this day would come. Yes, I was Valedictorian of my graduating class, so you could call us opposites. Ah, the infamous debate, nature vs. nurture? You can’t deny we are related though when you see us side [...]
Tweet Tweet
Dear Twitter followers, I’m sorry that I am a really annoying person to follow on Twitter. Once in a blue moon, I tweet about something that probably isn’t Tweet-worthy in the first place. But most of the time, I tweet about giveaways to earn extra entries. Or in the case of the @dealsplus Apple a [...]
Fifty-one
Today we would be celebrating my Dad’s 51st Birthday, just like we celebrated each birthday before that on the 21st of May. But he’s with Jesus this year. Celebrating an eternal life with Him. Can you imagine? Me neither. It’s far too perfect for my mind to fathom. I am at peace that he is [...]
Surprise Spring Picnic
On late Sunday afternoon, my Mom and I took my paternal Grandparents on a surprise picnic to a near-by spring (where we had my Dad’s memorial service). They were pleasantly surprised when they figured out where we ended up! We drove around and then had chicken salad sandwiches, chips, and cookies for our picnic dinner. [...]
Inner Circle Reunion (minus Ryan)
Last Monday evening, my Aunt Marcie and my cousin Darah, along with Darah’s boyfriend Micah, arrived at our house after riding a train half way across the country. It was a bittersweet day because I had to say goodbye to Ryan (more on that soon), but got say to hello to my sweet family that [...]
