This morning I woke up at about 7:45 and it was pouring rain outside...and we had cross country practice! I love running in the rain, so even though it was a hard workout, we got all muddy and it was great! After practice, I drove into Tigard, which is about 30 minutes away, to get a book at Barnes and Noble and to get some homework done. I was freaking out about the book and the essay, so I re-read the handout our teacher gave us on it. It said that the essay's not due until one week and one day before our presentation, and mine is December 4th...a HUGE relief! I had to e-mail him to make sure since it said a different day online. Also, tonight I got a little inspiration for my Psychology paper, so I'll start that tomorrow. God is so gracious!
I came back to my dorm and did a little more homework, then our whole dorm shared voodoo doughnuts in the lobby. It was interesting since I'm not a very outgoing person. I feel so awkward just sitting there. After that, I hung out with some girls from our floor and an RA from one of the other dorms was making his rounds. He stopped by and told us the whole story of how he and his girlfriend got together. It was kinda funny and random! It's been a productive day, which I was hoping for. Tomorrow I get to go to the Oregon State Fair with Lauren!

Oh Monz!! It kinda makes me sad that you were awkward! I know that it's life and takes time to meet friends....you are so amazing and those girls would be LUCKY to be your friend. Remember the assignment I gave you when we were on our road trip???? :) Thanks for blogging. I LOVE it!
Monz,
I had no idea you were posting so many entries. Kylie enlightened me. I totally remember the struggles I felt trying to get to know people in a completely new setting. But you always have to remember that you are very special person and that there are others who need your love and attention. Some may seem all outgoing and happy but we all need good friends who love us just for who we are. Touch someone's life with Jesus' love - even in a very simple, non-showy way and you will be amazed at how He uses you. Keep running the race!!!! I love you. Mom
