It's FRIDAY!

woohoooo!! Happy friday everyone!!

i can already feel how cold it is outside because it's freezing in our apartment..and we definitely have our heat on!

Yikes, so this week has been insane. good. bad. insane. i don't know even where i'd begin to describe it, so i don't think that i will. haha...we'll just bypass it and move on. :)

yesterday my classes were cancelled, and my observations were cancelled today! of course since i am ohso studious all of the time...i am working dilligently on homework for these two days!! (ahem, or not) actually... i haven't event ouched my books since wed. night. sometimes you just need a break from reality for a little while. i'll check myself back into it this afternoon maybe. maaaaybe.

so i am officially registered for FOCUS conference! i am sooo stinking excited! orlando, here we come! :)

so i told the priest at my newman center the other day, "i think st. therese of lisiuex is stalking me. in a really loving way. but stalking me." and would you like to know what he responded with?

"well katie, she probably is!!" hahaha. and that was that. she is stalking me. apparently it is because she is praying for me right now! :) which is pretty sweet if you ask me.

any fun weekend plans? i think i am going to the children's museum in town to make play-doh! i know. AMAZING! haha. i am pretty psyched. :)

well, i should really go shower....and start being productive! have a wonderful day!!

just to quote my favorite saint,

"Jesus is my guiding force. He teaches me to do everything through love, to refuse him nothing, and to be happy when he gives me the chance to prove my love for him."
-St. Therese of Lisiuex

--how beautiful is it to show Jesus we love Him, when we don't really feel like loving? when we feel like we're struggling? when we feel in pain? that's when we need to love Him even more. that's when we know we're on the right track. He is sending us the pain to strengthen us, to make us grow in LOVE. (and since God IS Love, we are in turn growing in HIM.)
