Kix.

I'm laying on my bed eating Kix. They don't taste like much but are so good to me.. if im not careful i will eat the whole box without realizing it.. One summer jessica and i would do this with Captain Crunch.. we'd buy a box and it just disappeared before our eyes.. soon we found out where this mysteriously addicting cereal went... i better be careful or ill get the same results that i got after eating it all the time.. good thing Kix aren't as bad for you as Captain Crunch is.. anyways.. stupid cereal.

note to self: Sarah, stay away from a box of cereal loaded with sugar.

Its been a nice night. I got out of Design early and to my surprise it was pouring outside. Of course it wasn't when i went to class so i had no umbrella. It was okay though. I got a little soaked but it gave me a better excuse to come home and take hot bath.. I listened to good slow folkie music, lit a few candles, and made myself hot peppermint tea. The rain made it even better by pouring down outside my bathroom window. I love baths.

I miss jessica.
I miss loving to exercise.
I miss my brothers living in the same town as me.
I miss kc the cougar and her faithful drives around the austin high school parking lot.
I miss the days getting to eat whatever i wanted.
I miss Matthew.

3 things im thankful for:

1. my drawing class being canceled for tomorrow.
2. coffee with Davis Ann and Lunch with Gabrielle
3. the instant satisfaction of a Polaroid camera

Davis Ann: "You smell like vitamins"
Me: "Ive been eating kix.. i have kixie hands.. that's probably it"
Davis Ann: "ah ha it sounded like you said you have kinky hands"

oh man.

back to reality.

I am addicted to corn chips i think.
Yeah.. Its official.

Spring break was amazing. I got to spend 9 days in Texas with Matthew and his family. It was wonderful. His family is great, we got to relax pretty much the entire week, goof off, and sleep till whenever we wanted. I love trips, and needed this one. It didn't feel like reality the entire time i was there.
In a way its good to be back in reality but i wish the two would collide.. hm. Maybe one day they will.

11 highlights from sp09 (because i like that number):

1. Being with Matt for 9 days straight.. everything about it.. i would still be with him if possible.
2. Going to the Dallas Zoo. And riding the train though Dallas to get there.
3. Scooter rides to the park and laying in a hammock among the trees
4. Food.. Matts mom cooked almost every night.. it was great.
5. Getting to see Lisa Hannigan at the House of Blues. Ah. I still cant get over how amazing she was. My new inspiration. I kinda wanna be her.

6. Watching movies almost every night and not getting tired of it..
7. Going dancing with Matthew and his family and getting lessons at a country western dance place.
8. Trip to the arboretum. We went on a picnic and saw lots of pretty flowers and trees.
9. Finding a great dress at bcbg on sale
10. Feeling relaxed and peaceful the entire time/ not feeling anxious about anything at all..
11. Not even knowing where my phone was for almost 2 entire days and not having to charge it once the entire time i was there.. i wish i could live without it forever..

The lord is good to me.

3 Things to look forward to:

1. 10 days till i see Matthew again.. this time in kC.

2. Sandra is coming this weekend :)

3. Sara and Jonathan bought Twilight! we are watcing it tonight.

Its a good day.

cant put a finger on it.

I already posted today.. but need a break from cleaning and packing
I'm kinda in a annoyed mood for some reason

Its kinda rainy and cold. Not the kind of rain that's enjoyable though.

Sara has made me feel better though letting me talk to her. She's calmed me.
We ate lunch and have been hanging out in Davis Ann's room. haha. Its what we do when shes not here... Thanks Davis Ann.

Ive been packing for Texas. Packing used to be a fun thing to do for me. Maybe its because i do it a lot more these days so its harder to enjoy? who knows.
I'm also still unsure about what i need to do this summer. It stresses me out. One day I'm confident about it the next i don't feel right about it. Dunno what that's about.

Good things from today: listening to Amos Lee, reading Hosea, the fact i am still wearing the same clothes i slept in still.. even to class.

I'm trying to snap out of my mood. Its extremely hard to do though.
Tomorrow makes an escape for me. When i was younger i always wanted to run away alone. Go to an airport by myself. Just me and the Lord, watch all of the people, listen to my music, and hope it would do something for me. The first time i did that was flying out to California summer after my freshman year. I called it my my adventure with the Lord. It literally felt like we were traveling together, like he was sitting next to me on the plane. The last few times its not had the same feeling but hopefully this time it will. Tomorrow me and Jesus are going on a trip to see Matt. I want the intimacy with the lord that i felt that first time i traveled alone.
Is that weird i think about it that way? haha probably is to some people but oh well. He does go with me everywhere. I want to fellowship with His spirit closely in every part of my life. Ive slacked letting Him be what consumes me fully this year. Its just been harder to do so. Everything's so much more at peace when I do. When the fight gets tougher next time i hope i push myself harder and not back down like i do with everything else in my life. I'm only human though and I'm not always gonna do things perfectly.. i have to remind myself of this. Glad He loves me just the same even in that.

wow i feel like that was kind of a depressing entry but oh well.
haha i feel a little better.

Ah I'm thankful its Spring Break...
:)

I see Matthew really soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hello spring break.

Things i am thankful for:

1. Emma. I am spending the night with her tonight and shes driving me to the airport tomorrow. Shes a good friend to have. (Now i need a ride home from there on the 22nd?... )

2. Snow Patrol.

"You're the only thing that I love
It scares me more every day
On my knees I think clearer
Goodness knows I saw it coming
Or at least I'll claim I did
But in truth I'm lost for words"

3. That i am done with class officially till the 23rd. I feel like i need this break more than ever right now. Oh man.

urban dictionary.

I love urban dictionary.

It gave me great definitions to my name.

check out # 11.. Sara says its me.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=sarah

hehe.

my heart is happy.

I just got home from working out.. not gonna lie it was kinda rough.. ha. BUT! it was great at the same time.
I had my ipod on shuffle and Kim Walker came on. Perfect timing..
About this time last year Her CD came out and we listened to it non stop on spring break. It made me really happy for it to come on. Like really happy..
Really happy about this spring break and excited about what the Lord is gonna do and happy that the Lord has given me fun memories to look back on.
It made me laugh while i was working out thinking about singing Spontaneous song 5 in the kitchen with Davis Ann, Erica, and Stevie while cooking dinner. We were singing "...Put a fire in our bellies and a river in our mouths, you put a fire in our bellies and a river in our mouths..and we are born to praise you.. we are born to praise you for all eternity.." and as we sang this we danced and fanned Jamie Reid asking the lord to fall on us.. (ha Jamie's reaction) which this is the funniest picture to me. It makes my heart smile. Sweet friends. And sweet spirit.
Ah i love it.

This song also reminds me of crazy fun Jesus times with Sandra. Haha Ive never laughed so hard than laying on the floor laughing in her apartment listening to Kim Walker and praying for each other.

Thanks Lord for today, friends, for Sandra (and for me), for Kim Walker, for your fun spirit, and for settling my spirit.
You are good all the time.

"We are longing for the glory of the Lord cause we know there's so much more."..."can we have more of You?"

2 days.

I only slept for a little over 4 hours total last night.
hm. Kinda frustrating?
I also over drafted my bank account yesterday for the, what i seems like, millionth time in my life. Why am i so irresponsible again and why do i not have a job so id have money and therefore it wouldn't happen? Online banking messes me up.

Things I'm thankful for:

1. Dr. Pagani my art history professor. I want her to be my adopted school mom. Just something about her i love.
2. Sandra sending me psalm 104:26 last night. Its about how God put the ships in the sea to "play" there.. in other versions it says frolic. It reminded me of the Lords playfulness. I like to frolic and He gave me fields to do so.
3. My mom. Once again. Shes pretty great (thats an understatement)

Mood of the day: tired. quiet. calm
(live journal used to have that on their blogs. In high school i always liked getting to choose my mood)

jealousy.

The jealously of the lord hurts sometimes... like His desire for us is overwhelming.. I feel it today..

"...the spirit in us yearns jealousy..." James 4:5

Hmm...
Jealousy.. what to think about it?.. the way Paul talks about it in 2 Corinthians 11 gets me..
and the way the Lord drove the Jews to jealousy by calling the gentiles to himself too interests me.. jealously draws you in.. of course godly jealousy is what I'm talking about.. its all because of His great love though.. why He provokes us to jealously and why He's jealous for our attention..
Its His love.

Set me as a seal upon your heart,as a seal upon your arm,for love is strong as death, jealousy is fierce as the grave. Its flashes are flashes of fire,the very flame of the Lord.
song of soloman 8:6

I feel like john mark mcmillan has experienced this and knows the lords jealousy for him..

"He is jealous for me. Loves like a hurricane. I am a tree bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy. When all of a sudden I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory And I realize how beautiful you are and how great your afflictions for me, Oh how he loves us so"

"i cant stop crying because you wont stop calling my name.." -jmm

three.

3 questions:

question number one: why do i have a hard time falling asleep when i am really tired? i mean Ive only been trying now for like thirty minuets but I know at this point it will be a while so why not write a blog? its been going on for a while.. i don't like it... too much more time to think with a mind that races almost all day long

question number two: why did God create guys and girls so different? i mean i know of course they complete each other in where the other is lacking but i mean i just want to know one good reason why God made girls emotional and made them a mystery and completely hard to figure out.. i mean it would help the emotional part of it if He made boys somehow able to read their language don't you think? just been wondering all my life.. i could go on.. but i am stopping. But really i am up for suggestions to those good reasons about girls..

question number three: why isn't it spring break already. 3days (ish)

3 things.

1. I really like harmonicas.

2. I like unicorns or really saying the word.. Davis Ann sent me a happy picture of one today that was drawn on the sidewalk. She gave me one freshman year in our days when we would play steal sharky ( Chris's massive shark stuffed animal) and the cool ceramic squirrel from the boys house and it got stolen during a war by one of them and has never been seen again. sad day. RIP cute unicorn from Davis Ann.. oh fun times.

3. I like enter the worship circle. Never have stopped. My kinds will most likely know them before they even come out of the womb...

okay wait 4 things..
4. Matt and I will be dating 9 months over spring break.. i know right!? in that 9 months we've probably seen each other a total of 8 times? haha but he still gives me butterflies when i talk to him sometimes. This week theve been worse as the reality sets in that ill see him on Saturday. Just for the record. I like him.

Tuesday, March 10, 2009

quiet. humbled. broken.

Things I'm thankful for:

1. Luke Woods song Let Us Run
2. Davis Ann.
3. The Lords intercession and Hebrews 7:20-28

"I am the vine and you are the branches. He who abides in Me and I in him bears much fruit; for without me you can do NOTHING." [john 15:5]

Tylenol PM.

I had one of those mornings where you cant get up and finally do when all you have time do is put on clothes and leave your house in time to only be 5 min. late for class...
Thanks Tylenol PM for helping me stay asleep and thanks for making it harder to get up. Is this a good thing or not?
I dunno.

I usually try and take the time that i walk to class to pray.
This morning i had no words. Literally none.
It was hard to even say thank you to Him today for some reason.. my mind and body seemed to still be asleep..
but then in His goodness He just just said "listen".
And all i heard was "i love you" over and over again.
Just when i feel like i have to start another day getting right with the Lord and trying to show my love for him with my words of thankfulness, He pours his love on me instead. He's the one who deserves praise and adoration and in his humility and meekness He pours it on me.
I don't understand Him sometimes.

Its been a good day. I finally cleaned my room that looked like a tornado tore though it. Seriously it was bad.. ask my roommates.
I like feeling clean and accomplished.

I'm thankful for:
1. 85 degree weather.
2. spring break and that its in 5 days for me.
3. my mommy.

This is my song for the week. Its beautiful.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3uoKsCZ0RU

"I've been beaten down, I've been kicked around,
But she takes it all for me.
And I lost my faith, in my darkest days,
But she makes me want to believe.
They call her love, love, love, love, love.
She is love, and she is all I need.
She's all I need.
Well I had my ways, they were all in vain,
And she waited patiently.
It was all the same, all my pride and shame,
And she put me on my feet."

love.

It feels like summer.
Has all weekend.
I'm with a few friends cooking dinner.
Its hot in our house and we had to open the door..
you can hear the insects making music again..
I think we might eat out on our porch.
Mmm eating asparagus & drinking sweet tea from my wine glass (since i cant drink yet) = part of summer for me
I love the feeling i have now.
All i need is a vase of wild flowers to be on the table that i would have picked today if it had been a real summer day.


Things that make me cry: babies and old people.

Things that make me laugh: life/everything

Music: Jon Foreman's summer and spring albums.

Love life.

beautiful weekend.

Its been the most beautiful weekend. Not just the weather but the time i have gotten to spend with people has been beautiful.

Im thankful for my time with Sally. We haven't met since October? and had much to catch up on. She gives me practical real advice and questions me to get me thinking. Shes a great counselor, and is gifted at what she does. During our conversation about the future i was reminded to not let go of the things i have before me. Near the end of our conversation she looked at me with tears in her eyes and said "i don't ever want to lose touch with any of you guys when leave, i know you're leaving but don't want to lose you" and it made me think. I don't want to lose touch with anyone here either. Its so easy to do so even being in the same city. Its had to remember to hold on to the moments we have right in front of us when things seem to drag on and become dull. I don't feel like im living for the future because i know its still a few years away but i do seem to let myself look past the now and to go through motions i have to do to complete what im doing here. The lord has put so many beautiful people and opportunities before me here. Even in the what i would call "mundane" and i need to hold on to them. They prepare me for the next step and what the future holds. I'm thankful for my friends and don't show it enough. I'm challenged by this.

Friday night i went to watch some friends play at Pour cafe. Jordan and Gabrielle sang and of course swept my heart away one more time.
My friend Kristen came with her roommate. I dunno why i worried about them coming but it was fun, they had fun, and i like being around her. The Lord is good and faithful. He reminded me he has things taken care of.. why do i forget this when he was the one who created life?

Saturday i hung out with Gabrielle. i adore her. We went to breakfast and literally did NOTHING all day. I mean we sat as much as we could. Even if it was sitting on a blanket on the quad to attempt at homework, we relaxed. I'm thankful for her. Shes relaxing to be around.

Im also thankful for house church. Gabriele and i decided last night we wanted to worship at her house this morning instead of going to church. haha. So we did. Davis Ann, She, and i just worshiped, prayed, and read the word together. It was good. The Lord has always put friends in my life to do this sort of thing with. I miss doing it as much as we used to and think it needs to happen more often.


Matt and I have been playing the question game a lot lately when we talk on the phone at night. We played it for like 2 weeks straight everyday when we first started liking each other and playing it again has been really fun.
I adore him.
6 days till i fly to Dallas.


I want to be a hippie again.

I want to adopt a baby.

and I want love like Jesus does.

my mind is everywhere.

Ive thought this about my life before many times but this morning i woke up feeling i must be on a TV show, a movie, or something..just by the way i felt and what i was thinking combined with the events that have gone on the past week..
For instance.. Liz, one of my best friends, almost got a knife pulled on her on Monday while running.. 15 cops and a helicopter came to my house last night because my roommates felt like a man broke into our house, we still don't know if it was just the UPS man or not.. hilarious story.. and because of other little things like how i ran to Barnes and Noble after hearing the UPS mans break in story because i felt so tense after hearing the story. For many reasons i felt tense.. i was kinda embarrassed in a funny way and it had been a long day.. i lost all of my social skills with anyone i came in contact with there and became extremely awkward to the point i was laughing out loud at my self uncontrollably.. if someone was watching me they would have died from how i was acting..
In addition to the first three days of this week... my breakfast club of an art class, my relationship with Matt although not dramatic but interesting as a whole.. adds to the reasons i feel like im eligible to feel like im on a movie...
oh and i now talk to myself out loud on a daily basis.. its become a bad habit.. so im kinda weird.. and that's another good reason i think

So since my life must be a movie or TV show.. a song that would be on this season of my life's soundtrack and that would have started today's episode of my life would be Rest Shame & Love by Augustana.. because of the guitar part at the beginning... the song would only play about half way through at the opening scene from this morning and fade out to me forcing myself to get out of bed..
I say this song because i listened to it in my car today and feel like it would just fit.
haha. oh man. Seriously though.

9 days till spring break. Thank you Jesus.

I really wish i was a hippie. Im wearing my hair like one today, the weather is amazing and it makes me just wan to be barefoot in a cool dress laying on a blanket in the middle of a field.
ha.

Random but my feet grew 1/2 a size bigger.. how does that happen? the last few pair of 9's i tried on wouldn't fit me...hmmm.

I met with one of the staff girls from crusade today. Ive been wanting someone to challenge me and feel kinda convicted for not serving and pushing myself to grow where The Lord has gifted me and brought me to. I want to grow and be challenged but have needed someone to push me in a loving way without me feeling rebuked by them.. although i need it sometimes i don't think it would have helped me at this point.. she just reminded me what my strengths were and how i have a place in the body of Christ.. it was really good to hear.

Also today Davis Ann convinced me to go to Birmingham with her to see her best friend Rebbecca. It was wonderful. We went to forever 21 and ate dinner with Rebbecca and her Mom who are both amazingly sweet. We had great conversation on the way there.. we always seem to when we take trips to Birmingham alone together.. its one of my favorite things to do with her.. i love her friendship.
And i got a cool Indian shirt for 12 dollars. i love cheap things.

anyways.. now off to bible study to talk about the fruits of the spirit...:)

If you feel discouraged
That there's a lack of color here
Please don't worry lover
It's really bursting at the seams
For absorbing everything

This is fact not fiction

sleepless... not in Seattle. but in Tuscaloosa.

Haha i know my title was really cheesy but its late. I'm tired and things that arnt funny are funny to me.
I cant sleep so i decided to write another blog.

I always claimed to not have favorite things because i always felt bound to them if i did and wouldn't be able to change them if i wanted but i do have have favorite things in season.. ha so right now.. here is a list of my favorite things.. some of these have been my favorite things for a long time and will be forever and some are things that are just passing through my life...

LIST:

The words cupcake and bunnies... try and say them out loud and you'll agree.

Bubble baths with candles, a good book, and a play list consisting of Iron and Wine, Damien Rice, slow KOL and other mellow music

Favorite food is rice. i don't eat it very ofter at all.. but i say its my favorite because its the most practical food... you can eat it with almost anything.. and cereal.

Joe Purdy. huge step saying that one. I of course have other artists on my favorite music list but he has my heart.

Painting in a button down shirt at my house in Decatur in my pink bedroom right after i get out of the bath tub and feel inspired by the play list i listened to in the bath tub..

Being with Matthew

Laughing with Jessica at ourselves..of course we are the only ones who think were funny

Taking trips to every where/running errands with Davis Ann

Riding in the passenger seat of anyone's car.. Matt's.. Davis Ann's.. Jessica's.. Ive always been the one to ride and not drive..

Going to shows.. that consists of music.. dance.. and art gallery openings..

Sitting around the table with my best of friends and having good deep conversations about life and God

Worshiping with my friends at school

Getting presents and mail from my mommy

Sundresses.

Days in the summer when you don't shower all day or wear makeup and care what you look like because you have been out in the water and in the sun all day..

Walking around the grocery store..

Antique stores.

The colors.. grayish blue.. coral.. anthropologie yellow.. and a certain shade of green i see in my head

BMW 6 series... but i mean really i like most BMW's..

Not wearing pants.. (haha honesty is good right?)

The dinner table at home when the whole family is home from school.. its always interesting and funny

Walks by myself in the spring by the river when i get to just listen to my ipod and talk/walk with Jesus

Mary of Bethany in the Bible

Having someone read to me

Singing duets with Matthew

The mornings when you wake up feel awesome, skinny, and really clean.. haha ya know even when you didn't shower the night before but you feel awesomely clean when you wake up for some reason?

okay.
that's all for now..
i think this helped me get tired enough again to try and sleep.

Goodnight!!!

refreshment to my soul

Tonight at crusade we just had worship and and prayer. There was only like 20 people there.
Jordan led worship and we prayed in groups about psalm 139 and thanked the Lord for how well he knows us.
I got to pray with Davis Ann and Gabrielle. When it was over we sang a few songs with Jordan that him and Emily wrote. It was perfect. I love worshiping and praying with them. It does something to me. Hearing Gabrielle always stirs me up on the inside and i always get tears in my eyes. Its not because i get emotional or anything my eyes always water and tear up when i feel the Holy Spirit touch me. Her voice is so anointed, it carries the gentle peace of the Lord.

I can't come close to figuring myself out most days... I'm thankful that the Lord knows me better than I know myself.. And i am thankful that his presence will never leave me no matter how hard i try to get away from him..

Yesterday, kinda discouraged, i would have said this was my verse:

I used to go with the multitude;
I went with them to the house of God,
With the voice of joy and praise,
With a multitude that kept a pilgrim feast.
Why are you cast down, O my soul?
And why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him
For the help of His countenance.
O my God, my soul is cast down within me;
Therefore I will remember You from the land of the Jordan,
And from the heights of Hermon,
From the Hill Mizar.
Deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls;
All Your waves and billows have gone over me
[psalm 42:4b-8]

Tonight was relaxing. A little praise and worship always brings refreshment to my soul. His presence brings healing and rest.

O LORD, You have searched me and known me.
You know my sitting down and my rising up;
You understand my thought afar off.
You comprehend my path and my lying down,
And are acquainted with all my ways.
For there is not a word on my tongue,
But behold, O LORD, You know it altogether.
You have hedged me behind and before,
And laid Your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
It is high, I cannot attain it.
Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.
If I take the wings of the morning,
And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
Even there Your hand shall lead me,
And Your right hand shall hold me.
If I say, “Surely the darkness shall fall on me,”
Even the night shall be light about me;
Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You,
But the night shines as the day;
The darkness and the light are both alike to You
[psalm 139:1-12]


Hes so good to me.

What i find myself enjoying the most:
sitting at the dining room table with my 2 roommates while we all do homework, talk, laugh, and make fun of each other

People i see:
Davis Ann, Sara, and on occasion Gabrielle and Erica. (explains my social life)

Music for the day: Damien Rice's first CD 'O'. So good.

Middle School Boys.

Today Davis Ann, Erica, and I played with the the virtual model on Landsend's web site. It was awesome. You could make the girl look like you.. face, body type, hair and all.. then put clothes on her to see what you'd look like in them. It was probably the funnest thing i did all weekend. We experimented to see what Erica would look like at 40 and to see what shed look like weighing 350 pounds. So entertaining.
I mean here is our problem though.. we already looked at Landsend website to shop for one piece bathing suits because we got the catalog in the mail and became interested.. but to ensure this wont become a continual thing.. we all made a pact today to hold each other accountable to still dress cool/ hott when we get old...
Seriously. We are determined to not dress too "mom like" and wear high waisted jeans with a cardigan and crocks.. which is all we saw in the catalog..
Kill us if we do.

Tired in every way.

I miss Jessica really bad.
I wrote this the other day in my blog but seriously other than God of course she understands me like no one else can. Without me saying a word.
And i could use that lately. Really bad
Tonight is a night i wish we went to school together.
One reason being she painted on her porch last night and that's totally like some things we did in high school and probably would have done together had i been there last night.
Aaand she and her friends went on a road trip to see augustana on wednesday...
Kinda jealous.

A few thing..
I miss high school summer nights with my friends. So perfect.
I miss summer in general and am tired of cold rainy days..
Im ready for new summer nights and to have an indian tan again
I had a good convo with Erica tonight that i really needed to have to help the view of God i have right now
Im thankful for the friends i have here..
Wesley leaves for Costa Rica tomorrow...sad..first time ill be the only Teague in Tuscaloosa since he was a freshman
And last what Ive been harping on all night and made into a controversial topic... i swear the sun is bigger in California no matter what people say. It looks bigger.. so there. It has to be different somehow. Scientifically the distance from Alabama and the sun at sunset is the same as the distance as California and the sun at sunset but it still appears to be different sizes visually. Let me know if anyone comes up with an explanation for that one.
haha. My stance stands.

A few happy things...
I saw my brother Daniel today at Panera.. he always comforts me being around
I see Matt 2 weeks from today
I talked to Sandra for a while on the phone the other day and it still makes me happy thinking about it. I really love her and our talks.
