this title is pretty reminiscent of the good ol' days in Ashley Gardner's Bible study.
HIGHS:
1. I'm so rested because I took the day off from school yesterday. Yeah it was slack, but it was rejuvenating, and I am now more prepared to learn. judge me if you must.
2. I made As on my recent AP English tests!! I mean, she hasn't graded the papers yet, but..
3. Monster.com is coming tomorrow to give us the same speech they have every year, but that means no English manana!
4. My middle school girls' Bible study is mixing it up this week! We're starting way early for the lesson, then making posters and going to support Stuart at soccer game against LE. You go girl.
5. My mom bought more V8 Fusion. enough said.
6. D-NOW IS THIS WEEKEND! My team will dominate. holla!
7. Most importantly- God's been opening my eyes to some things lately, even though I'm super stubborn. Praise the Lord!
LOWS:
1. Someone outbid me on Ebay for $20 Wallabees. heartbreaking. (note: I wanted Wallabees before everyone else had them, because I really like wearing Meredith's.)
2. I always waste my time. I took a Calculus break at 10:15, and I've yet to return. Current time: 12:02.
3. My picture was in the Chronicle. Exciting? no, embarrassing.
4. Because of my #6 on highs- I must clean my closet. Peyton can testify.
I try to keep the highs more than the lows.
Psalm 139:23-24
Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

A friend
accepts us as we are yet helps us to be what we should.
Lately, I've really enjoyed being with people, unexpected people, who I haven't spent time with in a while. There's just something refreshing about spending time with "old" friends (by old, I mean a few years because I'm only on a 17-year scale here.) It feels so comfortable, so familiar, so right.
At the same time, it's been great to enjoy those unconditional friendships, in which I am so blessed to know people who love and support me regardless of, well, me. Within those relationships, it's so easy to share, laugh, talk, let go; be vulnerable, open, and honest, without the concern of offending someone, or acting inappropriately, or being immature.
I feel like friendships are often so complicated by outside opinions, connections, and emotions; so much that we lose the happiness of just being together. I guess I've just been reminded of the joy that simple friendships bring- which is a very sweet, sweet thing, too easily forgotten, but so quickly welcomed back.
