It's been a long time since I have written on here...or written for my own pleasure period.
I really should be getting to sleep, but I've had an itch to get on here.
A lot has changed in the past year, I am entering a new season of my life. I graduated from CU in may and moved home to Aurora. It has been good to be home. It has been good for my health too :). I started graduate school at Denver Seminary a few weeks ago. I am working towards my Masters in Counseling. It is inconceivable to me that in 2 years I will have a Masters! :)
I am enjoying it so far, but so far in life I have never been so busy. I want to try to write more.
Well this should be motivation enough. I have a cold and I just finished studying, so I am going to get some rest.
Hello livejournal, i've missed you :)

Life moves pretty quick...if you're not paying attention you might miss it.
This has never meant anything to me. But I graduate in 40 days. 40 days and I am an adult. I feel like a kid. People want to pay be a salary to work...that makes no sense. I feel like I should be applying to places like starbucks or old navy still. AHHHHHH.
Plan:
coach for the summer
apply for HR jobs
get a job
apply for denver seminary for marraige and family counseling
go to denver seminary...
live my life.
It (MY LIFE) is staring me in the face, and i don't want to look...but i do...because it will be beautiful.
I have no motivation to do anything for school. 40 days. suck it up.

Nick,
Just listen to me. Put aside yourself and please hear me out. I am a Christian...it's who i am. I never tell you to be like me. You are who you are, and I never argue that. Be happy that I have something in my life that brings me joy. I am happy being a police officer does that for you, even though I don't want to be one.
Do you not see me? Do you not know me? Do you not know that I look up to you and brag about you? Do you not see how much I wanted this to work? And yet, you tare me down...little by little until i break.
We are NOTHING alike. NOTHING. so why do I care? and why do i try? Because it's in my nature. And because i wanted things to change. I didn't want to break my parents hearts. I didn't want to break my grandparents hearts. But I am not strong enough to handle what you give me.
Everyone thinks that I am "too sensitive". No. I refuse to think that this is because I am flawed. It is because I am a human being who wants to be loved, and nothing more. And the hate that is in you kills me. Really.
You NEVER listen to me. Even when I am agreeing with you, you tell me I am wrong and that I don't know anything. I'm not ignorant. I'm not stupid. Because I chose to belive in God and Jesus does not make me a fool...it makes me someone who knows what she is living for, why can't that be enough for you? Why can't I be enough for you?
My heart it heavy. It literally hurts. It hurts because you don't care. It hurts because you are mean. I am embarrassed that Chad has to see this. I am sad that Phia has to see this. Does her brother hurt her? Don't you see the damage that is done? Why can't you be the Man and just treat me as the person I am and not someone else?
Once I was told that it did not matter that we were siblings...I owed you nothing. But i REFUSED to believe that. I wanted so much for you to know that I loved you despite the fact that we are nothing alike. But I cannot handle this. I cannot take this abuse. I cannot love somone who does not want to love me back. I'm sorry. I wish i was tough and I wish I could laugh it off, but I am real...I am a person...and the things you do hurt. Get over youself.
One day I hope you wake up and realize that you had a sister who would have done anything for you. I hope you realize that you broke me down. I hope you realize how foolish you were for acting like you did and for ruining any chance we had at a relationship. When mom and dad are gone, what will you have?
I'm sorry, but you won't have me.
All my love,
Becca

Tell me where our time went
And if it was time well spent
Just don't let me fall asleep
Feeling empty again
Cause I fear I might break
and I fear I can't take it
Tonight I'll lie awake feeling empty
I can feel the pressure
It's getting closer now
I'm better off without you
I can feel the pressure
It's getting closer now
I'm better off without you
Now that I'm losing hope
And there's nothing else to show
For all of the days that we spent
Carried away from home
Some things I'll never know
And I had to let them go
I'm sitting all alone feeling empty
Without you
Feel the pressure
It's getting closer now
You're better off without me

My life is so amazing right now. I'm not boasting...rather expressing my grattitude.
I live with 16 women and it is incredible. You'd think it would be awful and petty...but these women have amazed me...their love for God and each other. There is no drama...NONE....evryone is clean..everyone gets a long...its never loud and you are never with out a friend. Ahhh it is AMAZING.
I am so content with my relationships with people and who I am.
Lauren Lau and I were talking about who we would be without God. I'd be doing cocaine. No joke. I would like to say that I would be a good person on my own, but I am who I am because of who HE is. It blows me away. I'd be so lost.
In church today, the pastor was talking about spiritual warfare and about the devil. He was talking about genesis when eve and adam ate the forbidden fruit... God curses child bearing so that it will be painful. The next verse then says that the woman will serve her husband and that he will rule over her. Ok...so that always seriously bothered me. But the pastor today made me see why the bible says that. When he says that it is not what he wants. He is talking about how the world is cursed because of sin. So when he says man will rule over his wife he is saying "because of sin...this is how it will be...but i didn't intend for that at all!" and if you think about problems in relationships--they all deal with respect. Or highschool girls who are ruled by boys telling them they are beautiful so that they can get sex from the girl. Do you get what i am saying? Because of sin...this wil be a problem but it is NOT what God intended. Hah. I knew my God was a good God. Haha...sorry but i just LOVE that i just figured that out today. Plus...God created woman and then said the world was good :o).
I'm at brewing market...its raining...im listening to Shawn McDOnald...drinking a vanilla latte...and attempting to read for class.
Life is amazing.
Love always.
Me.

Paramore- When it Rains |

I've been so in-between for 3 years now.
In-between homes
In-between ideas of what I want to be
In-between feelings
In-between old friends and new ones.
In-between faith and apathy.
I just want to get there...
wherever there is.

Venus Di Milo in her half baked shell
Understood the meaning of love very well.
She said a good love is delicious, you can't get enough too soon.
It makes me so crazy, i want to swallow the moon.

Where are we? What the hell is going on?
The dust has only just begun to form,
Crop circles in the carpet, sinking, feeling.
Spin me round again and rub my eyes.
This can't be happening.
When busy streets a mess with people
would stop to hold their heads heavy.
Hide and seek.
Trains and sewing machines.
All those years they were here first.
Oily marks appear on walls
Where pleasure moments hung before.
The takeover, the sweeping insensitivity of this
still life.
Hide and seek.
Trains and sewing machines. (Oh, you won't catch me around here)
Blood and tears,
They were here first.
Mmm, what you say?
Mm, that you only meant well? Well, of course you did.
Mmm, what you say?
Mm, that it's all for the best? Ah of course it is.
Mmm, what you say?
Mm, that it's just what we need? And you decided this.
Mmm what you say?
What did she say?
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth.
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs.
Speak no feeling, no I dont believe you.
You don't care a bit. You don't care a bit.
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth.
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs.
Speak no feeling, no I don't believe you.
You don't care a bit. You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.

I like looking back at my old entries and remembering where i was...
so i am going to write now...
Mmmmm....junior year is FLYING by.
I am president of ADX this semester--it is so time consuming and draining, but i really like it at the same time
My hair is getting long :o) It
I am still in love...and have been for almost 2 year. I really never saw my life like that. but i like it, and i'm not going to take it for granted.
Lately, I have been....let's say....shocked. Shocked by people in my life.Shocked by their actions and how they think and what they think. Don't get me wrong- people can do what they want think what they want and feel whatever. But I am having a hard time because multiple people in my life are not who i thought they were. They just are like "hey i am not at all who you thought i was!" well not really...but that is how it has felt. its been hurtful/disappointing. Not that they were better how i saw them....but i just feel deceived.
Yeah-- so i'm reading Othello--never read it before, although had many class discussions about it where i just nodded my head because everyone else knew. so its nice to finally know whats going on.
I am going to be a research assistant at the cognitive development center at CU hopefully....i have my 2nd interview next week (i made it thru the first on!) i feel grown up :o)
I'm going to go to grad school...and then be a clinical psychologist----its nice finally having a goal. I had an epiphany during class about a month ago....and i like it.
i am 21 in 2 months....
love.

I don't have a minute for myself. sometimes it sucks, but its alright. I'm either at class, meeting with people, studying, babysitting, working, in meetings...in more meetings. I also have been keeping a clean house. why can no one else contibute? no? ok. I also have to find time to work out. i've lost 20 lbs...and i can't ruin it. GAR. Im going to cali for sping break. and disney land. eff going to CABO and being drunk. how about being sober and happy and hugging mickey? Yes please. and the beach too. I will write my name in the sand.
I love the Brewing Market. I could stay up studying all night...because people are in there all night, so you never really feel like its late and that you should be in bed. Im getting used to no sleep :o).
i had a good v-day. it wasn't hyped up, and thats what made it wonderful. I babysat. the little girl...whitney...taped a red heart cut out of construction paper that read To: Beaka to the door to greet me. it was neat. Chad picked me up and had a rose and a card that made me tear up. And then we watched Robin Hood-the disney movie. I got it for chad :o).
Also, did you know that the color of an egg shell depends on the color of the chickens ear lobe. Brown chickens= brown eggs. Brown eggs are not more healthy for you.
my hair is long now. do you ever think your hair changes you a little? i do, weird.
my brother is a denver police officer as of 2 weeks ago. neat.
<3
