Already I'm so lonesome....


....I could die



OK that may be a bit of an overstatement, but today is the day folks. My dearest mate is departing for the wonderful land of Aus.

Although my heart aches at the thought of all the fun she will be having without me I must say jealousy is not the emotion that I feel.

We all have that one person in our lives that is always genuinely happy for you. Doesn't matter what minuscule thing you accomplished, they congratulate you. They don't care if you beat them in the race. If your art project turns out better than theirs they relish in that fact! Funny thing is you don't even think twice that they mean this from the bottom of their hearts because it is just second nature for them.


Well I am having one of those feelings. I am so happy and overjoyed for my friend. I can't help but smile when I think upon all the grand adventures she is going to have. Sure, I would love to do those things too but I can't help but think of how happy I am that she gets to do this.

Cassia, I know you will probably read this so let me just say again I am so glad that you get to embark on such a great journey. I know that the good Lord will be working in you in so many ways. I cannot wait for you to return so I can see the glorious woman that you are going to become. You deserve this, you earned it, now go out there and enjoy it!

Much love and Australian boys (need I say more ;) ?)

xoxo-- Amy

I'm just a lovesick fool....

Ugh it's official the so called "love bug" has bitten and it's gettin itchy folks. I hate it when they text you and then you reply and it takes ages for them to get back to you, it's practically instantaneous people! Like c'mon. My friend D was recently engaged in one of these situations and she was all stoked on the prospect of a possible new boy in her life, until he totally crumpled that hope into a paper ball and tossed in into the garbage can by completely blowing her off. I wonder if that is what God feels like when we ignore Him. Does He pace back and forth, pulling on His hair waiting for us to reply to His text message? Does He freak out when He finally receives a reply and all it says is "K." It kind of changes my whole perspective of the situation. But for now I'm just going to relish in the fact that God never ignores us when we initiate contact, even if that super cute guy does. Damn those biceps, they get me every time.

I'll be there for you, cause you're there for me too...

My body is so filled with excitement right now it's disgusting. My friend and I are about to embark on our own "Most excellent adventure" . Her birthday is coming next week along with her reading break and I booked the whole week off of work so we can initiate what we will refer to as "Super epic birthday week." We intend to re-hash all of our radtastic adventures such as going to Saltspring, Victoria, and a myriad of crazy experiences in between. I am so stoked! You know the type of friend I mean, the one who knows you inside and out, knows just what to say when you need to hear it, and most of all, loves you not for who you are but in despite of who you are. I have many good friends but very few compare to this girl. The thing is, this little lady friend of mine, is really the only one who just "gets" me. We've been buds since the seventh grade but it really wasn't until we graduated that this huge bond grew between us. We have so many memori...

There's a reason that I love this town...

So if you were in Duncan yesterday you would have to agree that it was gorgeous out! Looks like Spring has finally appeared and is trying to stick around. Seriously though I love where I live sometimes. We are surrounded by so much green, lush, nature that I am constantly being reminded of God's glory and infinite beauty. The day would not of been complete without a visit to the Corfield Cafe in the Duncan Garage so I went and ordered some lunch as per usual but this time instead of enjoying the atmosphere inside I took my meal to go. Wandering around I decided to take a seat in this little park wedged between some buildings right down town. Now usually when you walk past there are homeless people scattered all around but today it was vacant and waiting for me. While the sun warmed my back I finished my super delicious meal and made my way into the downtown core to read my book. After a while I started to feel rather lonely. I'm reading "Irresistible revolution" by Sh...
