do you ever just need rain? does that even make sense? there are times when i hurt so badly inside that i don’t feel like it’s fair that the sun can shine. at least this time i got my wish…. and it’s so contradictory, because rain can be so happy sometimes! and it’s my favorite form of precipitation, too. that’s what’s so funny. maybe i like it so much because it almost gives me an excuse to feel sad. i really like thunderstorms, though. its like God is just reminding us that He’s up there and that He’s pretty dang powerful. it’s like a reality check from the big man. i’m afraid that more and more i’m starting to need those checks. unfortunately, georgia is currently under a severe drought……
i’m a part-time lover and a full-time friend… January 29, 2008
so this is my first ever experience writing a blog, and i hope it won’t disappoint anyone. it may take me a little while to work out all the kinks, but bear with me! foe those of you that don’t know me very well, welcome to my blog! i’ll use this first entry to attempt to define a few aspects of my life. let’s see….
- i’m currently a student at georgia tech, which doesn’t mean i’m any smarter than anyone else. it just means that i perfected the art of bs-ing my way through applications! i’m a polymer, textile, and fiber engineering major at the moment. that just means that i’ll get to play with plastic when i graduate. hopefully, i’ll get to work developing car bodies for indy, or maybe do research concerning the creation of a carbon-based polymer that will help repair failing organs. but what do i know? not a whole lot yet… i gotta graduate first.
- i’m ready to be swept off my feet by a special someone. unfortunately, i’m a tough case to crack sometimes. but once i open up, however, i’ll think you’ll be pleasantly surprised…. i really just want a certain person to come back to me, but i know that won’t happen for a while yet.
- i try to not to regret the things i’ve done in my past. i find more that i regret the things i haven’t done more than what i have. i think i more regret that i’m not with a certain person more than i regret my actions.
- i know God has a plan for me, but sometimes it’s so hard to just let him have complete control. i have yet to be able to completely relinquish control–even though i know it make life so much easier to bear most days.
- i love winter. it is definitely my favorite time of the year. everything is so stark and desolate and devastating. it’s so beautiful! nature in its most vulnerable form, just the way God created it. and there’s nothing more haunting than the sound of leaves blowing on the sidewalk. speaking of leaves, i will almost always go out of my way to step on a leaf that looks extra crunchy!
- i may not always look like it, but i’m a deep thinker. i love a good intellectual conversation! i especially love discussing things with robbie. he has the best conversations! i’m always prepared to have one, despite the circumstances.
- i any extremely against editing music. i believe the artist put the words in there on purpose and they should be enjoyed and respected the way they deserve. i am an appreciator of lyrics. yes, i do actually listen to the words.
- i am a huge fan of coke zero. if aspartame really does give you cancer, then bring it on. my relationship with coke zero is what you would call an addiction.
