Actually, don't listen to Deanna

So, I only have one more final, which is on Tuesday. I also have to read a book to some little kids tomorrow, so that won't be too bad. Everything is going well with me. I'm definitely ready for a break. I think I might be in Decatur on this upcoming Wednesday. My ride is going home on Thursday, so I think I might come to Decatur for Wednesday and then catch my ride on Thursday. If any of you want to see me, I should be at church on Wednesday, which is the Foursquare one for those of you who forgot. Just kidding. I know you all knew that. Have a great week everyone!

so i'm done! :)




this picture is a group of friends at a fall party!





so don't listen to anything chris says..


finals are done and i'm so excited. it has been an interesting semester. Classes were a lot tougher this year, but i finished 3 finals, literally about 8 papers, and a huge research project! i'm learning a lot. I recently got a second job as a "grad assistant" for one of my professors who is the director of field placement within the social work department. I'm training to take the Masters level student's position who is graduating in may. I will then be in charge of all of the students field hours and who they correspond too. I"m also working on a research project for the social work department in developing their CEU which are the continuing education units aka classes for social workers in the tri-county area of where we are. The classes help in meeting there 10 ceu requirements in continuing their social work license.

God is working amazing and the pieces of my life are finally forming to fit into the plan God has for me. its amazing to see him work through my years at school.

i'm pulling out of my other job at the performign arts center... it was becoming too much of a stressful position. i was the assistant to the manager and sometimes working 30 hours a week ontop of a 17 credit load at school. my social life was taking a toll as well as my mental stability. but its amazing, when i decided to pull out of the job slowly my professor came up to me and said she got me approved to work for her. God is amazing!

I hope each of you have God stories to tell from this past semester! I'll be in town starting Monday! hope to get to run into a few of you at some point!

God Bless and Happy Holidays!

Greetings!


"Forever Always"...an optical illusion that completely messes with my vision.

Hi, folks.

Well, I'm staying alive. Two finals down, two to go.

School's been going pretty well. I make new friends just about every day, which is exciting.

I've been keeping up the music when possible. Last month or so I finished a new EP called "Convalescence" and all the profits are going to pay for my plane ticket to Togo, Africa.

Two of my uncles and their families are missionary doctors in Togo, and they offered for me to come visit and see what it's like over there in the hospital. Let me know if you want a copy and want to donate to the trip. I'm asking $5 for the CD, but really whatever you want, less or more, if fine. It can also be found in the iTunes music store, and on CDBaby.com, if you'd like to download it instead.

For more on my life, check out my blog by clicking here.

I pray you all finish well with whatever remaining studying and test taking you have. Make it all worship to the LORD, guys.

Peace,
Cos

Finals, finally...Christmas is coming!

Ok, I'll post something, if you insist, Chris.

This semester has been hard to get through. I was ready to be done after the first week, but with only a week and a half left until finals are over, I think I'll make it (maybe).

We have had snow and ice here in Decatur this weekend, but nothing nearly as bad as last year. The roads are still driveable.

I'm really looking forward to Christmas, too. I love Christmas!! Everything is beautifully decorated at work, and it makes me happy.

Well, I don't have much more to say, but good luck with finals everyone, and have a wonderful Christmas season!

What's up everybody?!

I haven't heard from most of you in a while. You should probably post on here.

Things are going good with me. I'm ready for Christmas break big time. I'm ready to be done with the classes I am in, ready for a break from basketball, and ready to see my family for a while. It will be a good time.

I saw Adriane a few days ago because we played at Lincoln Christian for basketball. That was fun to see her.

That's about all the exciting news I've got for now. Peace out!
