i think i like today, i think it's good

well unfortunately the lovely weather we've been having seems to have come to a hault. who's surprised? however, i'm surprisingly upbeat on this dreary thursday. here are some reasons why:
- i turned in a project this morning that took me 5 hours yesterday in the lab, that was a good feeling
- i had an awesome (& free) breakfast with jodi at panera this morning, i just love her!
- all i have to do is get through my 1:30 spanish class then i'm blowing off class the rest of the afternoon to go shopping (i need a new spring jacket, actually a spring jacket in general b/c i don't own one...and in case anyone remembers my post about not buying new clothes for awhile..I did successfully abstain from clothing purchases for about 3 months. in fact, i haven't even been in a mall, except to eat, since christmas-yay for me).
- i found out my stat exam that i bombed is probably going to get curved.
- there is a fun weekend ahead with the PYG, life is good.
it's times like these I have to repeat the phrase "God is good, ALL THE TIME" and make sure i remember this in the times when i could list tons of reasons why my day is terrible.
so, this is gross, but here it is. my project was a brochure on anorexia. i found this picture on the internet and could hardly believe it was actually a walking human being. or, maybe the dead really come back to life and walk the earth, this picture may provide evidence for that theory...

last night I led GOBS and went off of a part of Breaking Free (yeah, i cheated)...but anyways, it was about being satifsfied with christ and that's something i've been thinking about a lot lately. so i leave you with an excerpt from beth moore...
"Jesus is absolutely satisfying. In fact, He is the only means by which any mortal creature can find true satisfaction in life. However, I believe a person can receive Christ as Savior, serve Him for decades, and meet Him face-to-face in glory without ever experiencing satisfaction in Him on this earth."
