humility, new year's resolution.


topics of the day: humility and new year's resolutions. the two don't really go hand-in-hand, but if you were to try and force it, you could say you need humility to see the changes you want to make in yourself bc you don't like them...therefore, creating new year's resolutions. that's a stretch.
humility: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&defl=en&q=define:humility&sa=X&ei=SYQaTZLrIoSdlgfH0ZHTDA&ved=0CBsQkAE. in a nutshell, the link describes humility as meekness in spirit, freedom from pride or arrogance. this week already (in observation that it is only tuesday) has been crazy. i took yesterday off and went back to work today...it was so hard to go back after being off a few days. and now our hygiene schedule is so full to the max, we barely get a chance to breathe. a hard part for me to have to adjust to is how fast pace everything is...and how that conflicts with the fact that i like to talk to my patients. i like to relate. i like to ask my little kiddy patients about their lives and what they want to be when they grow up and what santa is bringing them for christmas. o my goodness, kids really say the darndest things.
i am currently at a coffee shop, inhaling java- which always seems to calm me down- and attempting to study...and i felt a desperate urge to dive into the powerful Word of God. to seek Him, to pray, to just unload and bring everything to the table- including this work week and my exhaustion and stress. and as always, the Words of the Lord are so eye-opening, and so kindof "in your face", but in a good way. from psalm 95, this reminds me that God is so in control. He is so involved in our lives, in the details of every minute thing, and not because He wants to be a control freak, but because He loves, and that is why He lives: love.
"Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the rock of our salvation. let us come before him with THANKSGIVING and extol him with music and song. for the Lord is the great God, the great King above all gods. in his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him. the sea is HIS for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land. come let us BOW down in worship, let us KNEEL before the Lord our Maker; for HE is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under his care."
all of us experience moments where those bolded letters come to life- BOWING and kneeling. where we have this deep hurt or anxiety or even praise where we can only think to get on our knees in worship. i love these verses & need constantly to be reminded of them, especially this week. so if you talk to me this week, say psalm 95. haha.
next topic: new year's resolutions. i have a few:
1. LOVE. others. first. above myself. and love others better. love GOD first and foremost in my heart.

2. COFFEE. drink only coffee with splenda...no creamer! AH this is a challenge. i love my creamer and splenda with coffee.

3. PRAY. give my requests to the Lord, give EVERYTHING to Him, and pray. simply pray. and pray for others- friends co-workers.

http://cdn.elev8.com/files/2010/08/a-prayer-for-times-like-these.jpg
4. STUDY. stick w/my studying for GRE and continuing education. and study the Word more often...and actually stick with a good Bible study.
5. ENCOURAGE. open my eyes to the hurt around me, friends and co workers and encourage.
6. train better for the marathon than i did the first time...i think my dad is going to do it and will probably get a better time and not even train.
7. hydrate. drink more water.

http://www.liquidsculpture.com/images/water/water-drop-a.jpg
8. hold my tongue. try not to complain as much and try not to gossip and get caught up in drama.
that's all i can think of for now!!

and a partridge in a pear tree...

can you believe christmas has already come and left us? oh what a short visit it seemed. michael reminded me that this is the one day out of the year that everyone looks forward to for 360 something days...and then it's over in a flash. i am a little kid still and feel like this every year :(
well this year was spent hanging out with my family...ALOT. i mean movie after movie, tv show episodes, playing w/my new camera!!, and spending time with family friends and seeing michael. these things are things i'm reminded to be thankful for. i was so happy my brother michael o was home. he always livens up the party.
below are some pics taken while playing w/the camera and trying out different settings. i asked for a camera for this purpose only: BLOGGING! i wanted to be able to take good quality pics. so long, nikon coolpix from the 80's. hello nikon coolpix from the modern times.
NOW thinking about the new year...anyone have resolutions? i am thinking of some and will post them this weekend. i only need to survive our busy-bee days of work this week!!!

pajama jeans


yes, this post is called pajama jeans. these may be the silliest "invention" i have heard of in a while.
i'm seeing so much of this convenience type invention lately...pajama jeans are supposedly comfy yet stylish, so you can sleep in them, read in them, yet still go to the grocery store or out on the town in them. um, don't people do that in regular jeans anyway? america is becoming so "convenient".
as much as i love facebook to stay in touch with people and continue surface relationships that will never go deeper if facebook is the only way of communication, i still have trouble accepting it, because i don't like surface friendships. it sometimes bothers me! but after christmas, i'm going to limit myself to logging on facebook, and if that doesn't work, i'll probably get off of it for a while. i would like to figure up how long i spend on facebook during a day or week.
a verse for the day...
"set a guard over my mouth, O Lord; keep watch over the door of my lips. Let not my heart be drawn to what is evil, to take part in wicked deeds...but my eyes are fixed on you, O Sovereign Lord; in you i take refuge- do not give me over to death". psalm 141
and don't forget: PAJAMA JEANS- add to your wish list.

SNOW!!!

i wish i could upload a picture right now outside my apt. i am snowed in tonight...watching sarah palin and kate gosselin on their camping adventure and drinking multiple cups of coffee that i'm hoping won't keep me up, because i'm 99% sure i will be working tomorrow :(
this weekend was one of the most fun weekends! one of my best friends got married and it was so beautiful. here are some pics to enjoy...and i'm going to attempt to load a video of a dance we learned to "single ladies" to do at the reception. it was hilarious.








here are some quick updates: this weekend=my friend milo and her hubby come, my work christmas party, kier comes to visit, deep clean my apt, and then next week is garth and seeing wad! YAY! also, i am posting a link to my new running sched---to train for the full marathon that is in april in nashvegas. i'm hoping to have a better time than the last, which was around 4:30. here's the link just in case you, as a reader, are interested in running or training even for a half! http://www.halhigdon.com/marathon/inter2.html

it's GREAT to BE an AUBURN TIGER...

so no pics to post from the weekend...the only ones are on my fbook and on a different computer. the shower for abby was SO fun and such a special time for abby. she is going to make the most beautiful bride inside and out. her and her family both are the most gracious, giving, kind people i know.
the title of this blog pretty much sums up the weekend and this entire football season. not only are we the SEC champs, but we went out with a bang...and are now headed to the BCS BOWL!!!! YAYAYAYA. i cannot wait for that game. and can i say that (not just because he plays for auburn) cam newton is one of my favorite football players. really he's my ONLY favorite. it would be a dream come true to meet him in person. haha. every time my mom and i see his face on the screen we both say- "he has such a good smile"- HA, coming from a dental hygienist it sounds kindof funny.
and lastly, i got back tonight and had some hand-me-down christmas decorations to put up that i got from my mom. i just finished putting the ornaments on my 4ft tree and the old/creepy santas on the mantle holding my 2 sad stockings. haha.
well, that's about it. i'm looking forward to this week for a few reasons:
tomorrow- bible study
tuesday- the mall to look for a dress to wear in abby's wedding. ***anyone have any suggestions? it has to be black and knee length and kindof cocktaily?***
wednesday- modern family, pack for m-town
thursday- wear all green day at work, m-town after work, abby's bach. party
fri- bridesmaids luncheon, rehearsal/rehearsal dinner
sat- ABBY & CAM GET MARRIED!!! YAYAYAY!!!

1/2 marathon here i come!


So, i was going to wait until sunday to post about the st jude half marathon that's coming up this weekend, but i'm getting anxious about it, and decided i wanted to go ahead and post, and sunday i can give better details about how the race goes. the other day when i was home, my dad and i went on a run. now when i run, i am either focused on my music, or i think about things in my head and hash situations/problems in my mind until my brain feels weaker than my body by the end of the run. well this run with my dad, my mind was a'churnin. i was thinking about so many things, i felt like i could have kept running forever. one of the main things i was thinking about was God's love. crazy during a run to think deep thoughts like this, right? well, as i was running i was a little ahead of my dad the whole way...not on purpose, but i just had this burst of energy where i could stay ahead of him. what was cool was this: my dad has a VERY consistent pace and breathing pattern. as i was running in front of him, i was thinking- what a picture of Christ's love for his children. we are constantly "running"- whether it's away from him or trying to keep ourselves busy or whatever it is...but we like to think we can get away from him or do it ourselves if we go our own route at our own pace and of course we make mistakes along the way and we fail him...but this is what sparked my mind was i could hear my dad's breathing. it was constant, steady, and RIGHT behind me. i just pictured the love of Christ and Him with His arms WIDE open, pursuing me...loving me constantly,steadily,and unchanging, just like my dad's pace/breathing pattern. i know that may be a little odd of an analogy, but as i'm running on saturday, i feel like this will pop into my mind many times.
i'm so excited about the wkend; i'm going to be able to spend some time with my family, my dental hyg friends :), and one of my best friends for her lingerie shower! i cannot wait. good memories are to be made this wkend!!! AND the biggest memory you ask? AUBURN TIGERS winning the SEC championship. that will be an epic moment in my life, no doubt. and cam newton- eligible. enough said.
can't wait to post that on sunday!!! :)

thankful

today felt like a monday. it seemed like every little thing at work went wrong. every patient seemed to run a little late because of traffic, my x-ray taking was not the best, i dropped one thing after another. what a day. and what a full day of constant reminders that my strength, hope, & endurance comes from God. i prayed this morning that whatever it was God was going to do today, that my words, actions, and thoughts would bring His name glory & not mine :( can i just say how hard it is to live that prayer out? ANDDDD i was locked out of my apartment due to my key not turning all the way to unlock it...so i had to tell my neighbor and then she said- go to the office, the office was closed, and THEN i shook the door handle while i was unlocking...and it unlocked.
well now i'm at starbucks...taking a break out of this crazy day...and people are chatting about texting boys and holiday shopping. and i'm about to attempt to concentrate and focus on the David Bible study that I've SO thoroughly enjoyed. every thing i read in this study and all of the hw we do each day is mind-blowing. never have i had my eyes opened like this to simple passages and the complexity of them...and the complexity is a crazy way i feel like the Lord is jerking at my heart and making me value this truth and how much He loves me. all of the intricate, deep details about David's life, the genealogy of Jesus, and his redemptive plan from the beginning is so full and fresh and filled with love. the verses i have been meditating on and trying to memorize for the past couple of days come from 1 corinthians 1:26-31-
"Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential, not many were of noble birth. but God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things- and the things that are not- to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. it is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God- that is, our righteousness, holiness, and redemption. therefore, as it is written: "let him who boasts boast in the Lord"."
oh my goodness- i could go on and on about this beth moore study. she is incredible. she is so profound.
can't wait for tomorrow and heading to memphis for thanksgiving with my family. i'm thrilled that my bro is home (with piper). it has not been the four of us- me my rents and michael in our home since last christmas :( it's sad that we don't get to spend time together anymore. but very thankful for times like this where we can...and something that i will never take for granted again and i want to remember for the rest of my life.
i feel like i just wrote a book- the end :)
and PS- i am going to GARTH BROOKS!!! yayayayay!

needtobreathe :)






WOW. one word sums up the concert in bham. it was amazing...and now can i say i'm even more obsessed with needtobreathe. and my ipod is hooked up downloading songs i bought on itunes...new fav: girl named tennessee or garden.
i'm so mad because i didn't have my camera to take pictures of the epic concert. and downtown bham (although not the safest at night) is so cool and unique. i've never really been around downtown bham, but from the parts we saw, it looked really cool...
this weekend i also saw HP...wow also. ummmm i don't think any other movie i've seen can really capture emotions like hp...haha. i'm making it sound like it was life-changing, but really, it was pretty awesome!
and now a 1/2 week ahead of me...monday, tuesday, 1/2 day wednesday (does that quote ring a bell, Godfather anyone?). and then home sweet home...with quality time with my brother- who promised he would spend time with just me one of those nights...and turkey at the atkins' house! and rest. and wedding shower for sweet abs :) i'm getting so excited about her wedding that's coming up so soon!
ALSO this weekend i got to catch up with a very long-lost, good friend that i used to take to school. SO funny i used to drive this boy to school with his sister.
and lastly to wrap up my semi-eventful weekend, today i went to church, did laundry, studied with lace, bought some really cute things for the apt...(unnecessary but couldn't resist)pics to come, and went to my John small group.
CANNOT WAIT FOR WEDNESDAY!!!! and thanksgiving!!!!

Yummy pizza & studying the Word :)


so last night was the first official meeting of our small group. a background story, the class i signed up for that was a 4 week thing ended a few weeks ago. i wanted to continue the class and meeting together, because i felt like we were all beginning to know each other and it was getting to the point where we shared about our lives/past experiences. i was encouraged by the amazing group of women longing to know the Lord more through this class. so i thought, we should meet every week and continue our group! every week we are meeting and going through a Beth Moore study, David: a heart like his. last night we met here & made homemade pizza, recipe courtesy of my old roomie. it was so easy and a big success.
can i just say that beth moore is SO intense? she is one of the most gripping (emotionally) speakers i have ever heard, and this was only a video we were watching! i felt like i was there and that she was specifically speaking to me. i know the Lord is using her powerfully in womens' lives.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9poQO4U5Q0
above is a clip of her talking about her book "so long, insecurity". if you haven't heard of this book or haven't read it, you NEED to check it out. it is so good. its emphasis is talking about finding our wholeness/security/full identity in Christ.
happy tuesday!
and new countdown:
9 days until thanksgiving day

38 days until Christmas!

unleash. your. awesomeness. HAHA




so this past weekend started off with a little adventure...where emily and i thought we were only going to be driving to knoxville for 2 1/2 hours, and instead it was about 4 1/2 hours, which seemed like 4 1/2 years! we got stuck in traffic due to construction...actually we're still not really sure what the hold up was! we moved 4 miles in about 1 hour, it was crazy. we were delirious. and the radio station at that time kept playing ads for the state college in the town we were near...and it continuously said "UNLEASH YOUR AWESOMENESS 98.5!!!" or whatever the station was we were listening to. haha. we laughed for a few minutes about this.
well then we finally made it to knoxville where we got to see our bestie laura...good times in knoxvegas were about to be had all weekend! friday night consisted of a late dinner and then meeting up with laura at her apt and hanging out with her roomie, the roomie's friend, and one of laura's longtime college friends/roommates. we also facebook stalked...for a really long time. you name the person, we probably stalked them.
saturday was fun also! we woke up leisurely, everyone getting ready for the game (except for me) and a mad rush to chickfila for a biscuit and bagel and coffee. and then i dropped everyone off at campus and proceeded to starbucks and studied :( and learned a few new vocab words i'll try to use in my conversation this week. haha. and then i picked them up from the game and we went to get a snack & went back to laura's apt to watch football and sleep! and i wore a snuggie for the first time EVER in my life, so comfortable! THEN we went to dinner at the coolest restaurant (downtown grill and brewery) and then walked around market square and got a dessert and then went back to laura's to get ready for a night on the town...which really lasted till about 1 am which i am proud of myself for being up that late.
then today we woke up, went to panera, had an awkward encounter with a VERY strange man- which it wouldn't be appropriate to type out what his background story was that we found out later on, and our departure back to nashvegas.
all in all, a FUN, very memorable weekend...with LOTS of laughs. my ribs are still hurting and "crossing over".

Love never fails.





this past weekend in memphis i went to celebrate steph and fletch's wedding. everything was beautiful. one of my favorite weddings, for sure. it still hasn't hit me that they are MARRIED.
the rehearsal dinner was beautiful, the ceremony was beautiful, and the bride and groom were surrounded by so many family members and friends. it was so great to see my auburn and memphis friends in the same place, and we were all together to celebrate the marriage of 2 friends- the bride i have known since i was in elementary school and the groom i was friends w/in college!
weddings are always a great reminder of how Christ loves his church and how the groom loves his bride. i love that parallel.
and on another note, i am going to buckle down this week and study for the GRE, and also look for a coffee table...and deep clean my apartment. and this weekend, i'm heading to knoxvegas to visit my bestie! can't wait.

WAR CAM EAGLE!


so as you probably know from seeing fbook, my friend kt and i this wkend took a road trip to visit another friend emily in oxford ms. a very quaint little town :) but the main reason for visiting was to see auburn beat the rebels or black bears. well friday we got there and walked around the square to find a restaurant that didn't have longer than a 45 minute wait...and after putting our names down at about 5 different restaurants and waiting around, we finally sat down to eat around 9:45/10ish. emily had 2 scottish friends with her, and me, kt, and harry joined them for a lovely evening of eating/talking/and watching modern family at the church harry works at. might i just add that i LOVE that show...

so saturday was fun, we slept in, got ready, and headed to the square for our morning fix of java and bfast...then hopped in harry's parents' car to go to the grove and join the massive amount of people tailgating and partying...it is definitely a huge social event, and it was anticipated that this was going to be the largest gathering of people in the history of fball at oxford. emily, correct me if i'm wrong about that fact?

so saturday was fun to walk around and wander through the endless sea of rebel/tiger tents and fans. little kids with their scooters that were zooming around in the family zone of the tailgating, frat boys ranting on and on and smack-talking the opposing team (auburn and ole miss frat boys :)), the smell of yummy foods, the loud chatter of families and fans....ALL of this was so much fun and so part of the grove experience.
kt and i also got to reunite with several of our great auburn friends :) SO fun to see them.
THEN it came time for us to leave...and the game started! kt and i listened to it intently on the radio driving back. it was CRAZY, i think we were caught in emotions of mad/frustration/happy/etc. haha. we got back to the house and watched the rest of the game with the rents, and had a surprise visit with our family friends and their baby, who was trick-or-treating as dorothy from wizard of oz.
it was a FABULOUS wkend of football, friends, and fun..now back to work monday! AHHH!

happy halloween 2010!



so this is about all the celebrating i will be doing for halloween....the rest of the wkend will be spent with good friends and fun in oxford MS and memphis, cheering for my auburn tigers :)
today at work was so fun, we got to dress up in halloween costumes...we made cupcakes for the kids and had a catered lunch from chickfila...and had yummy sweets for ourselves! everyone was so cute in their costumes. i'm usually not into halloween, but having a party like this at work was very fun!
the two doctors were spongebob and dora the explorer...there were some fairies, a baseball player, olive oil, a pirate, cheerleader, cupcake, gum stuck to a shoe (the winner of the contest), a witch, etc. the kids were funny too...i would go out to the lobby to call a patient, and the patient and mom would start smiling and just look almost in shock, like "why are you dressed that way?"
on another note, i wanted to share a funny story. let me give you sortof a background story. the night before i went to borders, i had gone to bible study and taken my dinner in a tupperware and i had brought my fork from home. well after bible study, i guess i forgot that my fork was still in my purse after removing the tupperware. so the other night, i am walking into borders, and am rummaging through my purse and talking on the phone...well i see a guy walking in behind me about to grab the door for me, and out drops a fork onto the ground from my purse (a dirty one, the one i had used the night before, HAHA). i was still on the phone, but i said, "oh thanks!" as he picked it up for me and handed it to me. hahaha it was pretty funny. if you didn't laugh, i guess you had to be there. hope you enjoy these pics from my work halloween party... and just in case i don't post over the wkend, WAR CAM EAGLE!!!!!

"i'm late! i'm late! i'm late i'm late i'm late!"


if you've seen alice in wonderland (cartoon or weird new version), you're familiar with how the rabbit is! he is stressed and ALWAYS late! thus keeping his clock with him! well i took on the part of the rabbit this morning...and funny story, because i am NEVER late. in fact, the only times i'm accused of being late is when i'm with michael :) and if my friends are reading this, they know that that is true. i'm expecting some kindof comment about that later.
anyway, the day before work, i usually set a million alarms on my phone and one by my bed. well not thinking about it last night and falling asleep, i PANICKED this morning when i woke up on my own without an alarm at 7:10. guess what time i'm usually supposed to be at work? 7 am! so of course, i panic, freak out, say out loud, "OH...CRAP!!!!" haha, i threw on clothes, brushed my hair, washed my face, brushed my teeth, and grabbed my keys and purse and rushed out the door. jumped in my car and sped to work...getting there about 7:23. i texted my coworker and said "i'm gonna be late!!" AHHHHH. so usually i have a patient at 7:30...in fact, i had one until about 7:15 this morning, according to a lady i work with. luckily, that patient had fallen off the sched and my first patient wasn't til 8. was the Lord watching over me or not? so guess what i've done tonight? set 5 alarms on my phone and one by my bed. guess what i will never do again? NOT set an alarm! haha. oh well, we live and learn. i definitely learned a small but important lesson...SET ALARMS AND MAKE SURE THEY'RE SET THE NIGHT BEFORE!

i love bdays! HOPPY BIRFFFDAYY!!!


so this wkend, i celebrated this boy's bday.
i absoluteley love birthdays. i can't help but plan and plan and plan when it comes to people i care about's birthday. i love cake, friends, fam, presents, the works! well michael, my lovely knight in shining armor and apple of my eye, was having a pretty lousy thursday night. he didn't do so great on his practice FE exam, and was down in the dumps. little did he know that the entire week, i had been messaging his friends and brother telling them i was going to actually come to martin fri night and surprise him to take him to din/eat cake at his apt. yay! i love surprises. so i messaged everyone early in the week letting them know, and was also trying to find a place to stay. so i ended up staying in Christopher (his bro's) dorm for the wkend, which was great. well anyway, i got there friday and drove to the EPS building, which is also michael's second home...i was thinking i would definitely find him there because every single time i talk to him, he is there. so i went there, browsed around the building, and found one of his good friends in the lab. i sat in there for a few minutes, and michael was re-taking his exam (haha, bad timing on my part!) i waited for what seemed ETERNITY, and then he bursts into the computer lab with all smiles and was super surprised to see me. we went to dinner with his friends and ate cake at his apt that night. we also went to a sketchy hang out place in martin...let's just say that the people there kept mentioning that the "weird" people come out on the wkends---the "townies" haha.
well saturday was fun also, we went on a walk around a trail near his apt, took lunch to go to EPS so michael could study...i wasn't as productive, as i sat at the comp in the lab playing on fbook, reading every blog, reading random facts on wikipedia, watching hulu vids. haha. i realized that it is just wonderful being in the same place with michael no matter what we do...whether i'm waiting for him to finish studying and i'm bored to death, or if we watch 20 episodes of modern family, or if we cook or bake nasty foods because he makes fun of my cooking skills, or lack thereof. whatever it is, we just enjoy doing together, which i really like. so anyway, saturday night we went to eat and watched football w/some of his friends and modern fam, you can't get enough of that!
speaking of, i bought michael the 1st season on DVD...i also got him the mumford and sons cd and 2 tickets to needtobreathe-which we are going to see in bham nov 19th- YAY!
so here are the VERY few pics i took this past wkend... i wish i remembered to take more. i forget i have a camera and i need to use it to document special occasions :)



happy TUESDAY!!! i'm ready for the wkend!

Dreaming...


Currently dreaming of traveling here...
KOREA.


Currently dreaming of waiting for this coming wkend in oxford ms to watch the au tigers dominate the ole miss rebs or should i say bears?

also- this fall weather keeps changing from cool to hot to cool...messing with my feelings!!! it needs to decide if it's going to stay cold or hot. so i'm currently dreaming of cooler weather/maybe even winterish days, with a hot fire, hot chocolate, and a snuggie. haha.

Sunday, October 17, 2010
