Photography


Lviv, Ukraine. I visited this city this summer. It is one of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen.

Last Day

So I am sitting here in between classes about to attend my last class as a college student. Though I doubt this will be my last class ever, it still makes me sad that I will no longer be pushed to learn about History and English. I AM glad that I will no longer have tests and essays but it makes me sad that I will not have professors or lectures anymore. Maybe in a few years I will go back to school or go to seminary. Who knows. I just know I am definitely not done with school...just taking a break for a while.
Be praying that I do not get too frustrated with the mundaneness of a 9 to 5 job. Even though Habitat is NOT a desk job, it can still get mundane. I really hope that I can come up with extra activities to keep me from getting too frustrated.
So if you know of a group of a local book clubs, or sports clubs, or something where you think I might be interested please let me know.
Ugh...I guess it is now time to grow up.

southern colloquialisms




So...a few girlfriends and I were sitting around when we got on the subject of southern colloquialisms and how we need to start saying them again. So I thought I would share some of the best ones that we found with you, the list goes on and on...

If a bullfrog had wings, he wouldn't bump his ass when he jumped. (resulted from our saying IF too much)

Close that NEWmonia hole. (close the window)

Your ass is grass and I'm the lawnmower! (usually followed by: "Go get me a switch.")

Don't you make eyes at me, boy! (if we rolled our eyes)

He's about as handy as a back pocket on a shirt.

That's about as useful as a trap door on a canoe.

She was so tall if she fell down she would be halfway home.

Well, I'll just swaney! (Well, I'll be darned.)

He couldn't carry a tune if he had a bucket with a lid on it.

Somebody beat him with the ugly stick. (He's not very good looking.)

I'll jerk a knot in your tail!

POT LIQUOR

It's drier than happy hour at the Betty Ford clinic.
