pet peeve IV
1) why is it that when my cell phone is on low battery, my cell phone does MORE to indicate that it is running on low battery. IF MY PHONE IS LOW ON BATTERY, CONSERVE MY BATTERY. shutup, stop beeping, stop lighting up, you are WASTING MY BATTERY. this is what i do not get about phones.
2) police during rush hour. there is a traffic jam. why is there a traffic jam? because POLICE ARE BUSY GIVING...

nothing has changed, now that we are teacher...
1) when looking at our bald professor:
liz: sandra, when i look at our professor, i cant help but think that all of the hair on his arms should be on his head instead.
2) making groups for case study presentations:
Sarah: lets be team mathematics! since we all have math as teachables except LIZ (who is going to teach french) LIZ: we are going to be l’EQUIPE MATHEMATIQUES.
i laughed so...

BAM!
so this post is going to sound really weird to alot of you, especially since just a couple of days ago i sounded like a love struck school girl.
I have often been praying that I will trust completely in God. That God will give me the strength to get over this feeling, and to completely trust that my future is in His hands. I have had this feeling for this certain boy before. But year after year...

where is the line?
where is the line that you arent allowed to cross between male and female friendships. when guys and girls become best friends, eventually one or the other develops feelings for the other. Yes guys and girls are allowed to be friends. treat older women as mothers, and younger women as sisters, in all purity— 1 timothy 5:2. But then how much is too much, and how far is too far. Where do we...

my future husband
you are an amazing man, who loves God and and puts Him first in your life. You are actively pursuing the heart of God, and looking to grow deeper with Him each and every day. You are biblical and you reflect Jesus Christ in your actions, thoughts and your words. You are able to lead me spiritually, closer to our Lord God.
Our relationship is founded on Jesus Christ, because His love is what...

"I'll let you know."
that line has been used on me many times. it makes me wonder how many times i use that same line with others. Of all the times i have used it i wonder how many times i have followed through, and how many times i havent.
im not the best at keeping up with friendships. i am well aware of that. but i dont doubt the strength of any of them. we dont have to chat every day, every week or even every...

a gossip girl?
i dont like gossip. i guess its not something that i understand all the time. Then again i dont understand alot of things, like judgement, makeup, and clubbing. so when i receive inaccurate information, only to ask the person themselves whether or not its true. i dont expect, nor do i want to be called a gossip, or somebody who spreads rumours.
the way you came up to me was low. first off the...

men && money.
something i have noticed for a while now, its something that i admire and hope that i can portray myself.
the christian men that i am friends with value relationships over money. of course they should, that is what they are called to do. They are called to have higher standards, to not store up their treasures on earth but in heaven. but while this may be common sense, i see it constantly...

Proverbs 31: Single Ladies.
One thing I have been noticing on Tumblr as of late is the amount of young single women who profess that they want to be shaped into a Proverbs 31 lady. I applaud such an admirable hope. It is mine too.
But upon further investigation into my own life, I did have to question, “What are we doing about it? What are we doing to ensure we actually become a lady of prized value, worth far beyond...

who are you?
yesterday during joint small group, you walked in the door, you looked at me with surprise in your eyes, and you said “hi sandra.” had people not greeted you as you walked in the door, i would not have known what to call you. something about the way you looked at me, and said my name, intrigued me i guess. i wanted to know how you knew me, because i for one cannot remember a time where...

"We Weren't Dating."
This is not a feministic rant, or a chauvinistic one either. If you’ve been following me for quite some time, you would know how much I stand up for men, and brothers in Christ. There is nothing more refreshing than seeing and reading about a young man pursuing the Lord with his whole heart. It is a mighty thing to behold, and few of which I have had the privilege to see and know on here.
Yet,...

More than we can bear.

There’s a phrase going around in Christian circles lately that bothers me.
God will never put you through anything you can’t handle
It’s a fairly simple phrase, one we’ve all used to encourage those going through a tough time. It sounds nice, helps us handle life’s downs and communicates an aspect of God we all long to be true. It gives us...

A youth pastor once told me
You don’t need to search for a girl or run after a girl. That’s not how you find her. All you gotta do is aim for God and start running. Soon, you’ll notice someone else running beside you, maybe even faster than you. That’s who you’ll want to go for.
One of the wisest things I’ve ever heard. This applies for girls too.

Met up with matthew and joseph, went to a breakfast place called giggling tomatoes, pretty cheap and tasty. played monopoly deal. i am beginning to own at that game. no big deal. Dinner with the...

i like you.
I am not really fond of this sentence, nor am i fond of the particular feeling.
i used to ask: how do you know when you like someone?
i guess when you are trying to get over someone, sometimes the feeling can be kinda cloudy. but i like someone right now. so im pretty sure i know the answer to this question.
my palms dont always get sweaty, and my heart doesnt always start beating faster. i...

the most hurtful thing.
In my opinion, the most hurtful thing that you could say to someone isnt i hate you, you suck, or you arent good enough.
the most hurtful thing to me is : i dont care.
saying “i dont care” tells me that you are indifferent to me. that what i say doesnt matter, what i do means even less. and that is hurtful.
to know that nothing i do or say matters to another. why is this...

To my future wife–
Hello.
I thought about writing you this a few weeks ago, when I heard that Southwestern Seminary was now providing an option for young women to concentrate in homemaking for their bachelor degree. Then Donald Miller came under fire forwriting a post about the qualities his fiancée had prayed for to...
