Today I went to Great America with two of my coworkers!! It was quite fun as i've come to realize in young adult life, that you become pretty good friends with those you work with. It's a given seeing how you work wiht them for 40 hours a week, so how could u not? It's been an interesting journey as i have grown closer and have shared with them a lot about what i do, outside of work. And how important it is to be a follower of Christ in all aspects of our lives, including work. It's so very important to realize who you are in your relationship with Christ when it comes to your every day lifestyle. You can't turn off and on your christian switch when you start working, nor should it be turned on or off when you go to school or whatever you may do. People see you all the time, and they see who you are in all aspects of this life. It's been a real blessing to be able to share my life with those around me, and to be reminded that being a Christian isn't just on friday's or sundays, but u're whole life. anywayz....

Great america was fun!!! it's a tuesday so no one was there so we went through the whole park in like...6 hours, even riding some of the rides twice!! i got soaked on the rip roaring rapids ride and was wet pretty much the whole day. I love roller coasters, but i hate the ones when you can view the height of the ride and u get stuck in it. i.e the pirate ship one where it jsut swings, or...drop zone! i hate that ride!!!! people who have been on it with me know that i just don't like the height, the waiting period at the top, and how u come off of it, shaking, well at least i do. but this time i decided to be a good sport and ride drop zone for the good of the group....WHAT A HUGE MISTAKE!!!! drop zone got stuck for like 10 mins!!! so there i was in mid tower looking out at the santa clara county. i was stuck!!! no where to go, nothing to see but the whole world around me. i've decided NEVER to go on that ride again!!!! it was soo terrifying i almost peed in my pants, okay not reallie but it was too scary for me to try again. other than that, the rides werejust fun and dandy and i had an awesome time!!! but now i'm exhausted, so good night fellow readers!!! stop procrastinating!!!

today was a looonnngg day at work. i'm soo glad i have the day off tomorrow!!! anywayz this week i've been going up to tilden working on my golf swing! this guy helped me out and i think i got a new swing down, it's a lil difficult to get used to, but my swing is a lot better than it used to be, more accurate. anywayz these past few days have been cool cuz yesterday i saw sean lampley, an ex-cal football player! i think he was on the warriors for a bit. and TODAY I SAW AGENT DIXON! i forget his real name but that's who he plays on alias. ehe i think i'm more excited about the people than i am about the golf stuff. anwayz i'm off! take care everyone!

i'm boorreed. so i guess i'll update, today was pretty good, i am almost all moved out. i cleared my desk, and i have one day to move all the large things in my apt, that of course will come later. i'm gonna miss my apartment. I did laundry, hung out with my dad, watched thank you for smoking, and chilled. Also learned how to play nerts with LSF, which was reallie fun....we still need to think of something to do next friday. anywayz i had a pretty eventful day. had a few pet peeves with some people, but other than that, overall it was pretty good. good luck with those with finals! congrats on those graduating!

Grad Nite was beautiful!!!! You underclassmen did an AMAZING JOB!!! Praise God for how the night went. it was perfect!! everything was amazing...not quite as amazing as my year, ehhehe but pretty close.

I'd like to take this time to give a shout out to the seniors!!!

Rhodessa - I've cherished all the moments we've shared. The good and the bad. I'm actually quite thankful for the fights we've had cuz it reminds me how true our friendship is. Our friendship is based on unconditional love, that no matter how much the truth hurts, at least it's the truth. Friendships aren't ALWAYS good, there has to be some bad, otherwise, u're just pretending. And i'm glad i dont' have to pretend with you. I'm thankful that we've had our moments of OC, or real world, or just hanging out. Thank you for making the time for me during my insane moments. Thank you for being so honest and caring. I'm so encouraged by your faith, how Christ has always been your rock. You are so wonderful and i'm thankful to have known you all these years.

Lorraine - I can't believe u're leaving me!!!! and leaving me for $tanfurd. As long as you dont' become one of them, and CAL is always your alma mater, then i guess i'll let you go. I'm soo thankful for our friendship. I'm thankful for the times we've been able to hang out and share with each other. Thank you for being so open and honest with me. I'm glad that we were able to share about some deep things, and that you trusted me. Thank you for being vulnerable and being a sister who desires a deeper friendship. Dont' forget me.

Mega - Your love for God has been such an inspiration for me. Your desire for realness and honesty is something i wish everyone had. You keep it real girl and i love that about you. You speak your mind and you're not afraid to share what you feel, and your honesty is something to strive for. I thank God for every moment we were able to spend time with each other. IM Basketball, retreats, dinners, small group. I don't know how you handle everything, but i knwo a lot has to stem from God and His strength. Thank you for the friendship we've shared.

Lily - Your heart is amazing. Your desire to share the gospel with others and your love for others is what people should strive for. You have such a kind and generous heart. You are always willing to treat people, or do something for others even if u're not asked. And your faith and dependence on God is so powerful, i know it encourages people, cuz it sure does encourage me. Thank you Lily for your willingness to step out of your comfort zone.

You have touched so many others around you and i can see how much love you have for them and their love for you. May God continue to spur you on in your journey with Him and life.

Louis - I've enjoyed serving on worship team with you. You're always excited to try new things and that's somethign i struggle with a lot. You're so fearless, willing to share even if it may be difficult, willing to adapt to whatever may come your way. You're so versatile and it has been such a blessing to know someone so adaptable. Praise God for your continuous faith in Him and wherever he may lead you.

Elisa - Your heart for others is such an amazing gift. You do so many things that others are not willing to do, but i know God and others appreciate it so much. Without you i don't know how things would get done. You are so effecient and always thinking ahead. Your heart to serve is such an amazing gift. You have such a deep love for others and i admire that so much about you.

Stephen - Your desire for others and their happiness is so special. Your humblness and faith in God is unlike any others i know. You desire for everyone's best interest and you're willing to step up, when no one else will. You have grown soo much since i've met you. I've been a bold and strong leader in Crossroads and i pray that God will continue to use you in His kingdom.

Alan K - You have such an amazing faith in God. Everytime things dont' seem to work out, or if things are working out, you always turn to God, whether it's through prayers or praises. You words of faith and love, and His word are so encouraging. I pray that God will continue to use you wherever He sends you, and that your words will be encouraging to others to have more faith and trust in God.

All you seniors will do just fine, if your faith and strength continues to be in God. Young adult life is not easy. i actually am struggling through it myself, but it's not impossible, it's just challenging. I pray that no matter how you feel, you will become part of a fellowship. It won't be like crossroads, it'll be nothing like it, because young adult life is just...different, but you can have fellowship if you choose to have it. It may be hard at times, but think just think, if you didn't go, where else would u find fellowship with other brothers and sisters. Seek God in all things, if it's tough, pray about how hard it gets. If you're seeking a special someone, pray that God will provide. Work will get busy, and it'll be hard to get up early to do qts, or spend time at night with Him, after u've worked an 8+ hour day, but He is your rock, and you need Him the most during those time. Take care seniors!! Good luck on this final stretch of college, ENJOY IT!!! cuz it only comes once...love you all!!!
