breaking facebook/tumblr "fast"

considering joining women's crew
i’ll have to talk to people about attendance requirements though… my math32 conflicts with 2 of 6 practices per week…
also,
orgo is killing me.
letting go of my useless pride.
applying for a chem tutor.
i can’t fail this class.
i've spent far too much time
calling myself a Christian and consciously not attempting to extend a Christ-like love.
how can i love God without even trying to love those He loves?
God is good.
and He is bigger than all of this.
I’m excited for Lent. I need more time with Him.

I can't help but look back and laugh.

There’s no need for that to change. Keep your focus forward, never forgetting, forever smiling.
HA.

kerilu:
Background: Intervarsity is tabling this week on the plaza with the question - “What are you thirsty for?” We have bins that say “Love,” “Success,” “Purpose,” and “Fun,” and we’re asking people to drop a red cup into the bin that represents what they think our campus is thirsty for.
I asked a…

Hi friends!
As some of you may already know, the NC legislature has referred a constitutional amendment to be voted on this May. Amendment One, or the NC Same-Sex Marriage Amendment, would define marriage in NC as between a man and a woman. Same-sex marriage is already banned in NC, but Amendment One would make this ban constitutional. The amendment would make civil unions between same-sex couples...
i give up.
i can fail this round of midterms. my gpa can take the hit. i can drop pre-med.
it’s enough that i love what i’m learning and my classes are challenging. it’s enough that i’m trying for God. it’s enough that i have some good days mixed in with the bad.
i’m going to bed. God will take care of me in the long run. i can’t decide if this is worth it. for...

dcspikey2:
Makes me mad. But I’m too tired to post anything coherent on this right now. Or because I’m so tired that it makes me mad.
ain't no closin' time; ain't no cover charge...
just country boys and girls gettin’ down on the farm.
[i refuse to apologize for my love for country. i don’t understand why so many people hate on it. i grew up on this stuff. besides worship music, no other music can really illicit as much emotion for me. born and raised in the south.]
i get frustrated
and then i get sad
and then i eat/sleep/run
and waste lots of time not doing the work that needs to get done
and everything numbs out
and then something/someone unexpected reminds me … “but God…”
and i remember that it gets better
Privilege: Valentine's Day Challenge - A Stranger... →
justinaw:
Two years ago, Jodi and I started a campaign called “A Stranger Love” to encourage friends to celebrate Love in all its beautiful forms, including kindness and generosity, on Valentine’s Day, and extend it to unexpected people/places.
It really transformed the meaning and appeal of Valentine’s Day for me, so I’m doing it again! I invite you to join me.
What is Love? It can be...
that sad moment when i realize
i have no shift partners… for any of the three shifts i can do… :/
@mae

question
are proxe stations meant more as an effort to
> get iv-ers to get involved in active outreach… that is, ideally everyone in iv would participate and work at least one hour shift
OR
> reach as many people as possible on our campus… that is, ideally there would be people working the stations during every shift even if the same people work multiple shifts
i think what’s...
things i want to get involved in / invest in more...
club swimming
iv outreach team
iv dialogue series planning [i think it’s uber important that this sticks around… but right now its fate is still up in the air :/]
lgbt center stuffs [blue devils united, dsgn, spectrum, etc.]
summit [college ministy / campus outreach, working with ncssm, small group, worship, refugee ministry, homeless ministry]
research [possibly at the lab...
both excited and nervous

blah.

honestlynothingelsetodo:
We spent the entire time at Chik Fil La laughing and making fun of Kyle, and then he made Connor move out of shotgun so i could sit next to him and we could chat and he keeps referring to me as queen of the swim team and he told me i was his favorite.
And he told me we could do RLA interviews…
I miss being a part of a baller team. :/
love when unexpected conversations about Christ...
study session:
