Gotta get that second opinion!

I loved listening to Nick Vujicic speak at BASIC last night, on the dvd, not in life. Seeing him in real life would be pretty sweet though, gotta admit. He was really inspiring, and I found myself tearing up a lot. What makes him more awesome than he already is is the facrt that he's from Simone's part of the world. I miss her.



The what was supposed to be a surprise party went really well. Not gonna lie, I was kind of nervous and then I was getting really nervous when the birthday boy wasn't showing up. But everything worked out and it was lots of fun! At least I think it was, haha. I guess there's just some people you can't surprise. They're just too smart for their own good! :D



I was reading "Crazy Love," today, during my Shakespeare class, haha, and my fave part was the stories of the radical Christians who really and truly live their lives by faith and prayer alone. I want to be one of those people. My heart burns with the desire to travel the world and minister to those in need. Like what Nick V does when he goes to like Cambodia and Indonesia. I think it would be so awesome. I really want to after I graduate, spend a couple years in underdeveloped countries doing what I can and serving God wherever I can. This passion is something I've never really felt before, and trhat's how I know it's all God and not me. I'm not the type to want to just go travel and leave everything behind. Not my cup of tea, but I just have this intense urge to do this. I'm not sure how to explain it. I so so so desperately want to change lives and touch lives and bring joy to people through Jesus. I want it so bad, but I don't know how to go about doing it.



I really feel like we'll never be back to where we once were. Sure, we can be friends, but to ever be as close as we were, I don't think it's going to happen. It's kind of sad, but hey, that's how life is.



On that note, I must go and be productive or something.
