    Things are crazy...

    I don't know whether I'm coming or going half of the time. I only have a little more than a week at Grace before I go home for the summer. There isn't much to look forward to there really. I don't even have a job lined up. I would really like to paint houses or work w/ a landscaping company this summer. Regardless of what I want to do, I just need a job. I have $200 left to pay on my acct. at Grace and $950 still to pay on my balance for Argentina. I've already payed $700 of my own money for it. Honestly, if I would have known that the support wouldn't come in for me to go on a missions trip I wouldn't have gone. While I was there I couldn't even focus because I knew that I would have to find a way to pay off my debt when I got back. Money sucks. But anyways...I just pray that a job opens up soon.

    It's sad leaving here. I know that I have next year to look forward to with an awesome group of girls, but I just have to get through the summer. What am I talking about....I make it sound like my life is so bad. So yeah, W1 is going to be so sweet next year.

    Um...so here's some photos of what I've been up to this semester:

    You, Amber, are an amazing artist! Seriously. I feel privilaged to be able to pose for you. Now, if you only you wouldn't put them off until the last minute....I would be much happier. I'll be praying for you this summer. It's going to be so weird to be away from you :(

    Hey, Amber! Welcome back to Xanga. Hope finals aren't kickin' ya in the butt, but you feel pretty confident about them. And these pieces are amazing! Bravo. I think I'm gonna hafta take my camera up to MM and get some pics of those masterpieces before I leave. I can brag about them to everyone in the art department wherever else I might be going next year. ;o) Ha ha. Have a wonderful day!
