The home Stretch..

Well friends, I am in the second half of my semester. This semester has been going by so fast. Two weeks ago I had a spring break and was able to visit my friend Becky and hang out with her family. Her dad is a pretty legit dude I must say. Her mom is the sweetest thing. Becky on the hand is quite different from both her parents…in a good way. . (I love you Becky). In another week I am going to be off for Easter break! This time my buddy and I (Joe) will visit a friend near Davenport, IA. It will be quiet fun to hang out with her since I haven’t seen her since the first time I met her. She’s a pretty chill gal and look forward to kicking it as well, not to mention we have a planned trip to Chicago! Woot Woot!

Anyways, life is going well. I’m doing well in all my classes. I did not do so hot on one of my midterms. They were a little more difficult than I thought they would be. Nonetheless, I’m passing! Also, I recently registered for my final semester here at North Central. I am pretty excited about that. Well that is really all I got for you. I told you I would blog more. However, here are some websites that I enjoy visiting and get a kick out of when I read their blogs.

http://thisiswhyyourefat.com -why america is overweight
http://mylifeisaverage.com -average things that come to life
http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com -self explanatory
http://iamawesome.com -yes you are

Yes, all these are clean sites. They are just really funny!

love you all!

Hey friends, how’s it going? I hope you are all doing well. Well my last snow post was probably a little more deep than what I am used to. As many of you know I am using a fun-loving guy that loves people and just likes to hang out.

Well for you friends that were expecting me for the whole summer in WA state, I decided that I am not going to try to transfer Trader Joe’s for the summer. Instead, I have decided to stick around and live here in Minneapolis. I know its sad. I am sad, but I feel like this is the best decision for me. We will see what the future holds.

For all who are wondering….NO there is no one right now in my life! haha. I have already been asked that question a few times already: “Alright, Who is she?” in response to me staying here. Well she is not in my life. What do you all think of that? BaM! Anyways, I will be visiting in Mid-May for a week so I will see you Olympians/Laceyans then.

With everything else, I’m doing great. Classes are going awesome (pulling all As), and still loving work at TJs. I am still loving all of my co-workers. I do not know a single person that I do not get along with. Its just that fantastic. There is a queen that thinks she is so unbelievably amazing. (For privacy reasons and safety of my life i will not reveal her identity)

You know God is good. I do not give God enough credit for all the blessings I have in my life. The relationships, the friendships, and companionships. The financial blessings and a great mother. Btw, recently I got a macbook pro, and I am loving it. I sometimes take these things for granted and when i reflect on these things, I know I am on the right track and that God has a plan for me. I do not know where I am being directed at the moment, but I know the big picture.

Recently I have been talking to my friend Quiana on the phone. I think it was our first phone conversation in years… I forgot how she sounds so it was a little strange. NOT that she has a strange voice, but when you haven’t heard someone’s voice in a while, its just different. However the connection was still there and it felt like we did not miss a beat. Through the time we laughed more than ever on our conversation.

My point is, If you’re reading this and haven’t had a phone conversation with me in a while, I want to talk to you! I want to hear your voice and laugh with you and cry with you (yes i said cry). It does not matter how far you are or if the chance of me seeing you again is slim. I am Just letting you know I care about you. (Goes back to taking blessings from God for granted) Even if we text regularly but never talk, I still would like to hear your voice and connect with you. There is a power in hearing someone’s voice and communicating together. Whether we laugh or talk about serious things, It is refreshing.

Well that’s what I got for you guys. Please feel free to call me and chat. Or send me a text and I can call you!
