Well, life as a 20 year old is very similar to life as a 19 year old. People still respond with a, "Oh you're such a baby." when I tell them my age. Life still happens. Bills still need to be paid. Still on the same continent. And loving it!
October is a packed month! My birthday party was SO much fun! We decorated the house with my photography. Katrina (my housemate) baked and cooked all this food from scratch. I had an umbrella shaped cake. It was so cute! Lots of people showed up, which really surprised me! There was probably about 30 people! Thank you so so much to everyone who sent me a card and/or put money into my account. It meant so so much! Seriously! I have all my cards sitting on my bookshelf in my room.
Then shortly after my birthday we had a college break, which lasted for about a week. For most of that I was at Hillsong's youth conference, called Encounter. It was so amazing..I loved it! Then I got to travel a bit. Last Wednesday I went to a place called Jervis Bay - it was BEAUTIFUL! The beaches we went to have the whitest sands in the world! The water was crystal clear and blue. You could walk out really far and still be up to your thighs and see what was underneath you. It was an incredible experience! It was only about 3 hours away, so I will definitely be going back.
I also went to the Blue Mountains (about an hour and a half away). That was breathtaking. It was so much fun walking through the mountains - even through waterfalls. The only thing we didn't think about was once you walk down a mountain, you have to walk back up! Haha, that was hard work. I need to exercise more probably because that took all of the strength out of me!
Now it's down to the hard work. I have a TON of assessments due in under 2 weeks. PRAY FOR ME. Haha. Not kidding! It's going to take alot of buckling down and being maybe a tad anti-social.
Anyways, I have been wanting to write a new blog post now for so long, but I haven't been at the school library computers in so long.
Well, I've got to go work on some assessments. :(
Keep checking back - I'll write again soon! :)

Well I have to confess, I haven't been reading your blogs like I would like too. You know, been a just a little busy with school. Any who, that's no excuse. I just wanted to tell you that I love you tons! God is using you in a mighty way and it's such an encouragement to hear what's going on in your life! Please pray for Matt & I, the church is going to be voting on a new pastor for the church, and while we hope that they feel it's Matt (as we do!) we want what's best for the church. Good luck will all your assessments! I'll be praying that's for sure! Love you, miss you!
