Dec. 15th, 2009 @ 11:34 am the creepiest thing ive done in a long time:
This guy is in a band that played in a coffee shop the other night...
I instantly fell in love with this band; and now with this dude.






I have a lot to post about but im not sure that i have the time...
I have to be at a final in an hour but i just now put my clothes in the dryer...hahaha.
I'm hoping this words out.

Sunday Jeff called me (the beautiful guy who i used to be like best friends with) and invited me to his church. His church is an Assembly of Christ church so they're sort of penacostle-ish. (I won't even pretend to know how to spell that) And at first i was like..."ADKJFA;LDK i'm way too tired for this right now" because they're very extroverted and a little out there. But, to my surprise, i got pretty comfortable being there and actually enjoyed the service. The pastor had us all touch the person we were sitting next to and pray enouragement over each other. And Jeff and i got really close and held hands and it was really intimate but it wasn't romantic at all. It was holy. And i realized that this is what I was MADE for. No confusion. No taking it the wrong way. Just love. Love the way God intended it to be.

Good is: Getting to use a cheat sheet on your final.
Bad is: Realizing the day of your final exam that you completely skipped over a full chapter.



Remember me posting that i became a fan of "Im the girl, you're the guy...you text me first or we don't talk today"...
Well...my very intellectual friend who goes to Rice claimed that this was "typical gender roles".
And has now sent me a page request for:

"Im the guy, you're the girl. Go make me a sandwich."
You have been invited by Iggy Olivera (Rice).
Would you like to become a fan?"

I am furious at my computer right now. I have put with WAY too much from it for it to be messing up AGAIN.
It's about to get a foot in its face. Just saying.
-----------------------

Yesterday I went to a concert for my Music Appreciation class. A older guy with a little boy who was about 5 sat next to me. The dude started talking to me about why I was here and what was my notebook for and what kid of notes was i supposed to be taking. I said the atmosphere and the emotions the pieces evoked. He said "Write that it's hot and crowded and that there was a 40 year old man who wouldn't stop talking to you". This sort of humor continued throughout the concert. Nothing inappropriate, just him making silly comments as i smiled but didn't turn to face him

His kid, however, drew my attention. Not only was this kid adorable and whispered just a little too loudly, but he had a bowl haircut so i was smitten with him from the get-go. He came in with a leaf that by the end of the recital he not only drawn on with a pen, but also started touching to my face as i tried to watch the performers and take notes. (Hahahaha) On a Christmas song about Bethlehem he loudly states that "This song is all about Jesus". My heart melted.
We had a "stick your tongue out" war which resulted in me giving up to take notes on the music and him resulting in getting as close to my face (with his tongue still out) as he could without his dad noticing. Im trying to remain facing the front so as to not encourage this behavior but the entire rest of the row that i was sitting on is turned facing us and smiling.

My favorite part was the end, where the organizer of the recital stands up to make a speech about the importance of music and blahblahblah and then announces that he will be performing the last song. The kid then asks his dad if it's finally over and as the audience quiets down his dad tells him that there is one more song. The kid...loudly...says "One more song? I don't want to hear one more song." and is heard by the entire audience. It was AWESOME. Mainly because he didn't say it whiney, but more matter-of-fact. Haha.

Nov. 30th, 2009 @ 10:11 am My thanksgiving break
via Emily's laptop...avaiable while she's in the emergency room.
I feel sort of guilty for taking advantage of her brief absence...

Drive all the way to Huffman (after being guilted into doing so by my mother--regardless of the fact that it was TOTALLY out of my way) and stay only for about 3 hours. Drive to Houston to gparents house. Talk. Sip Wine. Laugh. Stay up late watching tv/happy feet/kung fu panda. "Sleep" in a recliner. Wake up and watch more tv. Eat. Begin the drive back to college station for the TU game that Jose has conjured up an extra ticket for. Get a call after about 20 mins from a ticked Jose that the ticket is no long in existence. Freak out slightly but calm down quickly. Drive back to grandparents house to have a glass of wine with my family whilst playing "Battle of the Sexes". Laughter. Love. A text after 30 mins saying the ticket has re-appeared. Make an hour and 1/2 drive into an hour one. Cry hysterically when im still an hour late to the game because i cant find parking.

Hahaaa. I did get there, though.
And it was an amazing experience.
Us Aggies..hahaha we're intense.

My parents got me a $50 stuffed Chick-Fil-A cow. He's huge. My mom named him Chikin.(Pics soon)

Two recent experiences that make me love A&M even more:
1. I bought an aggie dress to wear to the Baylor game (that im going to with Jose--ergo sitting like 3 rows up from the field--ergo whoop) and told Jose about it. His response: "Good. Every girl should own an aggie dress." End of conversation.
2. (My personal fave) Picture of George Bush pops up on a movie theatre screen  (I dont remember why...) and half the theatre "Whoops" loudly.

Save for a few of those late night episodes, missed oppurtunites, and "I don't care"s; there's not a lot i feel obligated to share or talk about.
This may sound mad but dont take it the wrong way--
I love you, however..you hold me down.
You're the echos of my everything youre the emptiness the whole world sings at night.
You're the laziness of afternoon, youre the reason why i burst and why i bloom.

I have been a wreck lately.
I'm finally gaining some of my joy/self/sanity back, though.
I'm currently tyring to rid myself of Plato's Closet.
Blindly trying to find a job in this economy with the holiday season quickly approaching is very stressful.
Combine that with about a thousand other stresses that i really dont care to get into right now...and you get a very depressed/lost/crazy Megan.

I've been really strong in the Lord lately...but i had myself a nice little slip-up this weekend. Not a terrible one, but one that shouldn't have happened, regardless. I was reminded of this by a lovely text this morning...sent last night at around 11:30pm: "Hey make-out friend!! :) What are you doing?!"..............................................................Yeah, i dont think so.

So i went to my gparents house on Sunday to carve pumpkins and have lunch with my family. Its a yearly tradition and im really glad that i made a point to go. It pissed everyone off at the PCloset that i took off, but who cares? While i was there my mom surprised me by taking me to get a frame to accent my certificate from Blinn College that i didnt even know i received. Apparently i have been nominated Who's Who for Blinn. Prettyyyy cool, i have to say. But it made me a little sad. I know i could be doing so much more academically than i am. I could be in organizations, be in a leadership role...but i feel like i dont have the time.                                                                                                                    Another thing that made me a little sad.....i dont really see myself as a mother--maybe ever. With the diabetes comes sooo many freaking complications that i'd much rather adopt or not have kids at all. Or at least thats my overall mindset right now. However, i pushed a 5 year old boy in a swing and listened to him giggle yesterday and it sort of hit a soft spot. I'm good with kids. I love kids. Who knows..who knows..

Again in class today...another reason for a little sadness...a guy did his tribute speech on his great grandfather. He said that his favorite quality of his gpaws was the way he loved his wife. He said that his gpaw was never ashamed to say it, never ashamed to show it. That a month before he passed away he wrote his wife a letter...thanking her for loving him, making him a better man, a better christain.... And as i listened to this guy read this letter i'm so so very envious. I want a christain guy. I want to be loved the way on a christain man can love.

So i guess the conclusion that i've come to after this week...is that im ready to grow up. Grow up academically. Grow up spiritually. Grow up in my relationships.
With that said...here are pictures of the pumpkin i carved on Sunday. (Reminder: Blaire is the name Emily and I gave to our apartment)

I have had another semi-mini-breakdown.

Its really hard to post when you haven't been writing on here for awhile.
But i will try.

Right now, God keeps showing me that He cares about me even when i'm failing. Even when i know i'm not handling his tests and the situations He puts me in correctly.
I am trying, though.

My computer "crashed" two nights ago and I about lost my mind. This was one huge issue in a line of huge issues. But i prayed and layed it all down to the Lord and now my laptop is perfect now.

I'm having major job problems. Major. I'm not sure that i really want to get into all of them right now. Besides, Paige is the only one who would really be able to hear it all. But peace comes in spurts when i allow it to. I just have to constantly remind myself to breathe.

Something silly that "broke my heart" yesterday....there's a guy in my music class..Will..that i've never spoken to but always smiled at and what not. And for some reason i got it in my head that he always made himself available to smile at me, too, or something like that, i dont know. And then I saw end up sitting a few rows away from him at Breakaway.I see him, arms in the air, praising God. This is right after i hear a sermon on how i need to be dating a Godly man, ectectect. And so right then and there there are tears brought to my eyes...i'm sitting here thinking "Thank God!" because earlier this week i was wondering if he was a christain or not. So i make this plan to talk to him but not pursue, ya know, like it should be. But suddenly he's always on the other side of the universe during class and i never get a chance to say anything. This was a week ago. I get frustrated. Yesterday i heard the teacher say his last name so last night i looked him up on Facebook just to scope it out. Yeahhh, he has a girlfriend that he's deeply in love with and has been dating for 17 years and blahblahblah.
The dissapointment and straight up depression that followed this discovery was ridiculous. IVE NEVER SPOKEN TO HIM.
hahaha.

It was more the principle, i guess. I was holding out for a christain guy who seemed to be running at the same pace as me....not dating Jose or going after the hot guy in my speech class who smokes weed. And then he's "taken away" from me...even though he wasn't really mine in the first place, haha. Idk, its hard to explain.

In other news...I love my roommate:                                                                    And i've refound my love for Harrys:

For real. Having your perspective & focus in the right place....there's no comparison.
Why and how did i live any other way?



Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, holy, holy is He.
Sing a new song to Him who sits on Heaven's mercy seat.

With all creation i sing praise to the Kings of Kings.
You are my Everything.
And i will adore You.
