Be Still

"Be still, and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10

to be still...After a busy weekend of cleaning, running, practicing, and spending time with friends I realized last night that I need to be still. And not just be still, but be still and know that He's God. Really take in all things good, and reflect on my recent character...to reflect on my role as a friend, as a daughter, as a girlfriend, as a student, as an employee...

I hope to take at least a few moments everyday to be still.

still:
to silence or hush
to calm, appease, or allay
to quiet, subdue, or cause to subside (waves, winds, commotion, tumult, passion, pain)
to become still or quiet.

tschuss.

The Windy City

Alex and I went to Chicago for four days a few weeks ago and let me tell you...it was a BLAST!! We went apartment hunting...ate, went to the horse races...ate, and went to the White Sox game ...and ate. It was amazing. All of my dad's family lives in Chicago so we stayed with them; there is nothing like getting together with a bunch of your family and eating some Chicago pizza. Chicago is absolutely my favorite city because you can do everything there. We shopped on Michigan Ave. and checked out the Chicago lyric opera house...we went to the Horse Track with my cousins, and I think that was the highlight of the trip...Alex came home with 200 extra bucks. I came home with 75, it was great. If you ever get the chance to go...don't pass it up, Chicago is amazing.
