Back to School Back to School

Well it's back to the old grind of work and school work and school. I had my last first week of school last week. I graduate May 11th! That date cannot come fast enough. In away I'm really glad that I will be getting out of school. After 6 years of it, it's time for a change. However, it will be weird just going to work everyday. At the same time it will be nice that once I punch out and go home, I don't have to worry about designing another thing until I go back to work the next day. Sometime I just get really tired of having to be creative. You would think that there is no ay someone would ever be able to kill the fun in being creative. I'm here to tell you it can be done!
I would like to take this time to say thank you to all of you who came to my Ma's 50th birthday party! She had a great time and it's all because of the great friends that she has. You all have shown a lot of love to my family over the years and I would just like to say thank you! You guys are the best!

Trying again

Well I figured I should try this blog thing again. The New Year presents many great opportunities to start over. I don't believe in New Years resolutions per say, only because as soon as your goals for the new year receive that title, they instantly become more difficult. So my goals for the new year are very simple. I think my greatest issue as a person and as a Christian is not practicing self denial. I never tell myself no. It's 12 am and I have to go to school the next day and I know I'm going to be really tired if I don't go to bed, but I don't want to go to bed! I want to watch TV. So I watch TV. There are things I need to get done around the house in my free time. Well when free time comes around I don't want to do the things around the house, because this is free time. Even little things like, I know that this second cup of coffee is going to make me all sick and nervous feeling...but it's just so good. Or how about this one, I really want to start spending more time in prayer, or I really should go to this church group, but I want to do this or that. I know what you all are thinking. He needs to be more disciplined. This may be true about not wanting to clean the house or go to bed, but one shouldn't have to be disciplined to spend more time with their Lord. If you have to discipline yourself to pray more than you are doing it for the wrong reason. So as I start this new year please pray for me that I stop being so self serving and that I learn to give more of myself to God.
