March-ch-ch-ch.

So this month has been very busy.

**VCC classes (I did alright on the midterms, thank God)

**PHE classes

**Babysitting (seems like whenever I babysit, it's for little blondies under the age of six. aka the Laws or the Walleys or both at the same time).

**Weekend w/ Khrysten, Katelyn, Ashley, and Rachel (Central FL Fair, OCC, and lunch at the Lo Mejor de Mundo..the Cuban cafe down the road).

**Hanging out w/ the Hendersons for an afternoon..

**Mission to Japan Daytona Beach Retreat (I spent a week w/ a group of other college students (15 Japanese and 20 American) in a hotel on the beach.. we played crazy games, cooked meals together, had worship and prayer meetings, talked a lot (most of the Japanese students are Buddhist, so they told us about their religion and in turn, we got to talk w/ them about our Christian beliefs-- very neat), went down to see the sunrise on the beach, had dance parties and icecream parties, talked some more... and overall, developed really great friendships. The Japanese students are here in FL for only one month, but we'll still keep in touch over FB. ;)

**Deluge meetings (and all that entails. aka the food prep beforehand and the event planning team)

**The Invisible Children Legacy Tour at UCF one evening. Very eye-opening.  http://www.invisiblechildren.com/aboutic

**Evangelism group (hadn't been in several months, but I went this time.. we actually went out to UCF).

**Tori and Carly came over from New Smyrna for an afternoon to hang out w/ Lyd and I. We went to Wendys, Bruesters (we got free wafflecones for wearing our pajamas), Target, and PetsMart. It was a lot of fun and was actually Carly's bday, so I am soo happy she had fun too :)

**Metro's 25th Anniversary Lunch (which was great, although we eventually got rained out)!

**Olivia Schmitt's surprise party in Deltona. It was small and very chill and a lot of fun.

**JULIA AND ALEX WENT OFFICIAL! :) I couldn't even imagine a better guy to be in a relationship w/ my sister! Soooo happy for them! This has been like 3 years coming! As Mary so aptly put it, "now I won't get in trouble for calling him her boyfriend ;)" hahaha.

**Starbucks w/ Ariel and Christine Subrah(etc) to talk and catch up! mm Caramel Mocha Java Chip Frap. hahah.

**I got very sick several days ago. That lasted a few days, I got better for one day, then I got sick again. I think I have mono, actually. (Julia has it and I'll be going to get tested for it this afternoon..) It hasn't been fun at all.

**Universal and Islands of Adventure w/ the Japanese students yesterday. The Hulk, Dueling Dragons, Doctor Doom, Rip Ride RockIt, Simpsons Ride, Spiderman, Popeye, Dudley Doo Ride, Hard Rock Cafe for dinner... it really was fun, but unfortunately I wasn't able to enjoy it as much as I normally would because my body was killing me. Exhaustion, sore throat, congestion, achy-ness, etc...I was determined to go though because I wanted to spend more time w/ them before they leave back for their country.

**I was going to go to the abortion clinic w/ several others from my church to try and convince the women not to abort their babies, but I couldn't, because I'm sick.

**I was also going to help w/ the free car wash Metro is putting on, but.. yeah.. s-i-c-k.

**I'm still determined to take Katelyn's senior photos tonight. That won't take a lot of energy + I'll be resting up all day until then + I already had to postpone it once, I'm not postponing it again + I'm just dying to do something more creative than blowing my nose and watching a movie. She'll be coming in from Daytona around 5ish, I can't wait!

Aaaand yeah!
What has been the highlight of your week oh-however-few-you-are-blog-followers? ;)
