jones 102 is now officially "headquarters"....
and here are some pictures to sum up saturday night's randomness:
bff tearing up the dance floor
out of control
and once again, bff, melinda, and i bust up in the room when the roommate's trying to study...
linds getting crazy (although i did see her shoulders bouncing during jay-z....)
the night ended with melinda and i deciding to drive to raleigh to take pictures at 11pm. we aren't really sure how they'll turn out since my camera battery is non-existent and therefore, so was the metering. but it was fun, fo sho.

"whatever you do,
work at it with all your heart as if working for the Lord and not for men."

as usual, 850 words of relevant
is relevant to my life.
an excerpt:
"I believe most of the confusion comes from trying to be a good person in the eyes of two different groups of people—those who are Christians and those who are not. But often what God wants from us, or what He calls righteousness, is the opposite of what our parents, teachers and society would have in mind. Trying to please both groups of people can be like going in two different directions at once. It's so much simpler really: Be obedient to God. That is being a "good Christian." In trying to please everybody, I felt that I failed to please anyone, least of all God."
if you don't already get the weekly (i think) 850 Words of Relevant email, you should.

it has been a looong week
but in the end, a great one.
wednesday night was the absolute worship tour here at campbell and i got to drive around the bands. i especially enjoyed exit east...they were very entertaining and very down to earth. shannon and i especially liked jo,ing around with mohawk boy about his choice in hairstyle...he decided he didn't like that and threw multiple objects at us, including towels, tape balls, and sound equiptment. (ok, maybe not sound equiptment...)
thursday was the run-off election which i ended up winning, so that was a very nice surprise after a long few weeks.
friday night lisa came through here on her way back to VA and we went to see the breakfast club with melinda, shannon, and mike. gretchen and megan ended up coming and we also saw the boys of 208 and some other camels we know, so it was a GREAT time. i seriously haven't enjoyed anything like that in a long time; i think i had been somewhat stressed and overwhelmed lately and friday i was definitely not that. but man, our feet were hurting SO badly...my toe was even bleeding when i took my shoes off when we got back. i'm sure you didn't really want to know that, but it's just further proof that lisa, melinda, and i were dancing machines.
lisa and me at los arados for dinner before heading to raleigh
lisa left saturday morning and last night jeff and i went to chapel hill to tiff's 21st birthday "back to the future" party, so i got to dress 80's for that. it was really awesome and i got to see old friends who were definitely the life of the party decked out in their 80's wear. it's really interesting that all of the people i have met and hung out with seperately now hang out altogether in college at UNC. it's great for me, b/c i get to see them all at once! so that was awesome, and tiff definitely paid attention to detail...she had everything from the movie in her house. what an 80's weekend it was.
proud to know these kids
Nathanael and me reliving our favorite senior superlatives picture
21-year-old tiff, ben's midriff, and me
but now i am still tired. i can't seem to catch up on sleep no matter how hard i try. so i'm going to take a nap before another week begins.
and it's almost spring break...anyone want to plan anything random? let me know.

it has been a VERY interesting week...
honestly, not at all what i thought it would be, in a bad way.
but it has actually turned out to be quite a learning experience, even in a few days. i am learning a lot about patience and depending on God's understanding and not my own...
so, as usual, i am thankful for rough times in my life.
it hurts when you are being chipped away at, but definitely worth it in the end.
