"Oh. my. gosh. Devin.....Devin!....Devin!!!" shrieked Bess, my suitmate. Gosh. What could it be? Leigh Ellen and I looked at each other with confused looks on our faces. Honestly, I was scared to go see what had frightened her. My brain went through as many scenarios as possible. Could she have fallen and hurt herself? Could there be some kind of creature in the bathroom? I rushed to the door, and when I opened it there was half an inch of water on the floor. Whew, what a relief. Just an overflowed toilet. Messes are something that I can deal with, even though it's not preferable. So that night we ended up mopping up all the water while replacing it with Lysol and throwing away the bath mat... that thing had been through enough already.
As for the rest of my somewhat uneventful week, I had a biology test and a psychology test. I did get to teach an exercise for the "Butts and Gutts" exercise class on Wednesday! It was so much fun... I was very energized when I got up there but then I started trembling because my butt was hurting so bad. Ironically the song "Booty Work" came on whenever I got up there. Go figure! Afterwards, one of the instructors said, "My butt is on fire!" Yes!!!!! Goal achieved. I do still have to work on my cueing. And of course building up my strength to actually teach a whole class.
This past weekend was Easter weekend and was also Andalusia's spring break... so my parents and Andrew decided to go to Centre, Alabama for a mini-vacation. The thought of staying in Auburn without going to see them on Easter made me a little sad, so I decided to stay the weekend with them there! We had a blast. Staying with them really makes me realize how much I miss them. How I miss my mom... she is my best friend. I love just talking to her for hours about anything. I probably talk her ears off (sorry mom), but she's the best listener. And dad... he has the best laugh. He is also the funniest person I know! He does has a serious side when it needs to be there though. And also, Andrew. We get along better now that we don't live with each other 24/7! Though I did miss spending Easter with my entire family! I love them all. I feel like I don't get to see them too much anymore :( There is less than one month left of school... but at this point I'm still not sure if I'll be home the whole summer or not. Here's some pictures from my weekend:
Such fluffy clouds!
Dad and I!
Pink Honeysuckles!
Look at that big fish...!
(All of my pictures with mom and Andrew are on mom's camera!)
Lately, I've been thinking alot about the future. I mean, I know that's normal for most college students, but I've been thinking about it more than I ever have. I still haven't the slightest idea of what I want to major in. It seems like God has said "No" to about everything I can think of. I often ask myself, in ten years (or less) where do you see yourself? Will you be married? What will your career be? Where will you be living? But I think it's all going to be pretty neat to see where I'll end up. Only God knows :) I think He wants me to put all of my trust in Him and every thing will fall into place. That statement is alot harder than it sounds... but I know it's achievable. I so often rely on myself to make plans, which is so stupid because my plans aren't even relatively close to how great God's plans are.
I've probably already put this verse on my blog, but it really speaks to me so here we go again!
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6
Oh! My bio teacher actually granted my wish and brought something cute to class!! :)
