"In the blink of an eye , that is where , i'll grow closer to you than i've ever been.. time will fly but until then , i'll embrace every moment i'm given.." In the blink of an eye , my brother graduated , in the blink of an eye i'll be going to South Africa , In the blink of an eye i'll be graduating , going off to college
life is so short! that's why we should live it to the fullest! do our job here on earth , then go to heaven where it'll be amazing , even more than amazing , absolutely indescribable.
Graduating is just another stepping stone through life.
at my brother's graduation today , i kept getting "you're next krista!" and it really annoyed me for some reason .. i want to grow up .. and graduate and go on with life .. yet it's all coming too fast! i'm only 16! i want to enjoy my life right NOW , and not be so fed up with when i'm gonna graduate , i like focusing on here and now , not so much the future or what's gonna happen next , even though i want to .. it's all in God's hands and there's absolutely nothing i can do to change it , so i'm gonna step back and let God lead my life where He may.
to be honest , i have NO clue what i'm gonna do with my life .
i have no awesome skillz that are extra ordinary . i don't .. know .. and yes , i'm worried about what college i'm gonna go to , if i even want to go to college , what i'm gonna do after college if i go , where i'm gonna work , and so many other questions ..
yet like i said before .. i gotta leave it to God . He's totally and completely in control of my life .
well this particular post turned out quite great! i guess i had alot on my mind but didn't know .. i just started with "in the blink of an eye" and kinda went from there! well , here's a quick recap of what happened today!
got up , the rest of the family went to a book sale at our library and i stayed home because i didn't really feel like going , so i sat out in the lawn chair listening to my ipod and soaking in the sun .. when they got home we headed to the graduation, i waited around there forever before it started and when it finally did it ran very smoothly!( it actually kept my attention span! 'record!!!') i got good pics of the diploma handing out and it was great! the reception was boring after awhile and we were there forever until FINALLY we started heading out . went home , changed , and headed to golden corral and the food was AMAZING! it's like my new fav restaurant now! we headed home with our stomachs full and hung outside and played frisbee for awhile , then headed inside and watched the rest of slumdog millionare . there's my day for ya!
Yummy Gummy Bears!,

I know what you mean about not knowing what to do with your life, I am heading off to college next year (only the local community college for Running Start but college nontheless) and some of my friends and both of my parents and my grandparents and a lot of other people I know are kinda pushing me to decide what I want to do with my life. What is funny though is some ppl I know think that I have my life all figured out because they think I know my Bible well enough to know anything! (of course there is always more to learn when it comes to anything but especially the Bible). A couple months ago I decided to narrow down my college choices a bit and I went on the Awana website and they have a HUGE list of colleges that offer scholerships (scholerships as large as 8,000 or more) for people who get their Citation Award with Awana!!! the list is like 8-10 pages long and I think so it is kinda overwhelming but it sure helps narrow things down. currently I am really looking at Corban College down in Oregon but I have no clue what I would study so I might not end up going there!!!
ReplyDeleteI am the oldest in my family so I don't get much of 'your next you know!' except for at graduation cerimonies (I hardly ever attend any but I still get that) because people know that I strive for good grades and they kinda expect me to graduate early (like my mom would ever let me :P).
Any way just some thoughts on your thoughts!
