Life is a blip

& at the moment I can't keep up.

I guess life overtakes you as you get older, even in the summer.

Things to do, people to see, job to be worked...

I want to lock myself in a room with all the music & great books I could ever need along with a couple journals & more importantly my bible.

I thought summertime was the time to relax... Guess not.

I can't believe no one has ever turned this into a song. Oh well.. Here it goes.

LORD, I have heard of your fame,

I stand in awe of your deeds.

Renew them in our day,

in our time make them known.

In wrath remember mercy.

(I will rejoice in the Lord,

I will be joyful in God my Savior)

He stood and shook the earth

he looked and made the nations tremble

the ancient mountains crumbled

and the age old hills collapsed.

His ways are eternal.

(I will rejoice in the Lord

I will be joyful in God my Savior)

I heard and my heart pounded

My lips quivered at the sound

decay crept into my bones,

and my legs, my legs they trembled.

Yet I will wait patiently,

for the day of calamity.

(I will rejoice in the Lord

I will be joyful in God my Savior)

The Sovereign Lord is my strength

He makes my feet like the feet of a deer

he enables me to go on the heights

For the director of music,

on my stringed instrument.

(I will rejoice in the Lord

I will be joyful in God my Savior)

Whoa. I actually have time to do something recreative? Sweet! 

So.. considering I'm one month away from being a senior, I've been thinking about college lately. Where I want to go, what I want to do, what the purpose of college even is.

I know most kids want to go to college to "get away" or "have more freedom" or.. if i may say so, party. But, that's definitely not why I'm stoked about college. So here are my reasons that I might soon begin my countdown to graduation:

1. I love to learn. I LOVE it. I think the education that God has made available to all of us is amazing and I want to get as much of it as I can. What will I major in, you might ask: Literature/Philosophy with a minor in Greek/Theology. YES. 

2. I love where I live, I'm really blessed to live in a place as great as Greenville but.. I'm so ready to experience new places! That's why I want to go semi-far away, I want to see all of the world that I can. Study abroad is a must.

3. I'm excited to meet new people who are as fired up about God as I am.

4. Big cities and awesome concerts.. enough said.

5. The path to my career.. which, I'm not quite sure about but God's gonna lead me somewhere cool. I want to join an organization like the peace corp.

6. Mostly, I'm excited to see how God is going to grow me and make me more dependent on him as I'm "on my own" in a sense.

But of course, I am/must be content with where I am right now as God is growing me for college. I love the people and I love my family, I'm in no hurry to leave them. I'm just excited for the life more abundantly that God has promised! 

First Timer. Gasp.

Hey Guys..

So blogspot.. this is pretty legit.

I'm Haley, and a whole bio about my life would be boring but I'm sure facts and figures will unwravel as I write.

I apologize beforehand for the rambling that will occur.

More later on the beautiful event today called Easter.
