Thoughts of a Growing Christian | |||
Tuesday, March 12, 2002 Wow it's been awhile again. Well that's cuz I was on break for a week and didn't have computer access again. But that's ok...back at school...with the luxury of ethernet...goodness am I gonna miss this over summer vacation....8 weeks...WHOA! It went by in just the blink of an eye. Dang I'm gettin' old. I seriously feel like I'm testing my wings...trying to fly on my own and ready to leave the nest. This may be a random dumb thought...but when I drive alone I do alot of thinking in the car (come on I know you've got to do it at least once in awhile)...and I tend to do this alot...esp since the radio wasn't working. But I thought...man I can drive...not as in I know how to...but I have a license and I'm driving on my own. Ok I know I know that this should have happened when I was sixteen and first got my license. And it did. But I'm saying I'm almost 19...I'm driving...no need for my rents to drive me everywhere...I'm one of the millions of people that just have this routine...get in you car and go. No permit that needs a legal guardian etc etc. And now I'm almost done with my first year of college?! Whaa?? Can't be real. Anyways spring break...hmm well I'm still pasty white...*sigh.* Oh well. But I did do ALOT of shopping. I acquired three pairs of sunglasses in one day with other things too of course (like a pair of steve maddens! for only 25 bucks!!!) I really don't know what got into me. I just got hit with this obsession with sunglasses. And I especially love the loud...DARE to WEAR kinds. I have a pair of pinkish ones, pair of blue ones, a pair of purple J-Lo like ones and a pair of more toned down regular girl ones with brown frames. And then I saw this hat...this loud hat...that was also dare to wear...from J Crew...I wanted it SO BAD. For some reason I'm edging over to more flashy and loud stuff...is that bad? But I still LOVE classy sophisticated career look. That's a good combination right? I have my clothes that I can wear for church and when I need to be serious. And then I have my crazy wild fun clothes. I think for once in my life I'm liking shopping...really liking it. Cause for the longest time I didn't really like the way anything looked on me...and wished I was thinner cause the clothes weren't cut for anyone bigger than a size 6 or so. But now...I have this mind set...if you want to wear it and you dare to wear it...who cares what others think. When you wear something with a sense of confidence...people can't say crap cause you wear it for you and not for anyone else. And you'll most likely find them complimenting you too. But besides shopping and eating with some friends...I stayed at the restaurant to help out a little and here I am back at MSU...toughing it out for the final stretch. Bring it on!!! posted by Sewa at 3:13:00 PM # |
