Things 1-5 ..

Okay sooo ..

I know I said I was going to post one thing each day from my list of 21 things to do while 21 but that just goes to show my life get's hectic, and I'm only 20 ... Lord help me when I actually have a "real life", someone promise me it gets better!

Tuesday was my roommate and best friend's birthday, which she cleverly dubbed "Heatheresta", no her birthday party was definitely not Mexican themed, and no I did not buy her a sombrero that we puffy painted and bedazzled for her to wear all night.

I drove back home to Roanoke on Wednesday and even though my whole left side got sunburnt during the 4 hour journey, I just love driving throught the mountains, I get just awestruck.

Thursday morning began my "I swear I'm not a work-a-holic" summer. I may or may not have worked over 20 hours in the past two days...
As much as it sounds bad, I figure I don't have anything better to do I might as well make money and occupy my time.

The only thing I am bummed about working so much is that I have to miss my guys (PH Men's Soccer team, they are AMAZING ps) play against Battlefield tomorrow :( Even worse I won't get to play with "my" babies, Sam, Charley, Emily and Zoe. I love going back to these games because not only do I get to see my favorite kids, I get to see Emily and Nikki and all of the parents I've come to know over the years but I get to see the boys who were freshman on the team when I was a senior dominate on the soccer field. It is truly astonishing how far they have come .. brag moment on my boy Cameron Chavira for being on the cover of the Sports page in the Roanoke Times yesterday (did I mention he's playing at UVA next year?). They are such awesome boys and they have an awesome team of coaches who teach them lessons on and off the field.

As for my list:

#1 (May 4) - Graduate from CNU !
#2 (May 5) - Apply to become a Corps Member of Teach for America
#3 (May 6) - Make Dean's list both semesters of Senior Year
#4 (May 7) - Save my money better
#5 (May 8) - Blog regularly

**The best part of my day was when the little boy I was babysitting asked me to read him stories out of the family bible sitting in his living room, he's 4? and he sat so quietly while I read to him. There is a reason children are so precious in the Lord's eyes.
