| My, land! It has been a long time since I've written!
To update, right now I'm in the midst of realizing that once I graduate, I have to actually get a real job. So, now I'm double majoring in Vocal Performance and Liberal Arts (concentrations: music, natural science, ministry) and minoring in Environmental Biology. I'll have to be a 5th year senior, but that's okay. I like college. After I graduate, I think I'll substitute teach while I do the Transition to Teaching program in the evenings, and then the next year I'll teach middle school science! And my students will watch Bill Nye the Science Guy videos and they WILL love him. That's the current plan any way. We'll see what happens next week ; )

| Christmas Break. . . How beautiful!
Well, my first semester of college was not what I expected, but it has been a good growing experience. I am definitely looking forward to next semester with the lighter class load and an amazing new roomate - Katie! I love my old roomies, but it will be just so lovely to be rooming with my Katieo.

| Oh, my land! I feel like I need to confess. . . I am now on facebook. I emphatically stated that I would never get a facebook account, and then I proved myself false. Argh! It reeled me in before I knew what was happening. Here's what happened. . .
So I have this wonderful beautiful best friend named Courtney Clark. Courtney has facebook. Ruth and Courtney love to share random thoughts throughout the day, but Ruth did not have facebook and Courtney did not have xanga. Ruth wants to see Courtney's facebook, but - alas! - facebook will not allow an outsider to view the sites of insiders. So, Ruth attempts to quietly create a facebook account under a pseudonym (Ruta Willow Ozols - her Latvian name) without a picture or profile just so she can communicate with Courtney. Ruth is able to read Courtney's site, but she cannot comment until she is Courtney's "friend." Ruth becomes Courtney's "friend." Suddenly, everyone in the facebook world who happens on Courtney's site sees a striking resemblence between "Ruta" and "Ruth" and asks to be her "friend." Plan foiled! Cover blown! Ruth, unable to reject the people she loves, gives in. She accepts the people as "friends" and creates a profile.
It all happened so quickly. . .

| I finished all my Anthology journal entries for block class! I feel like a huge weight just fell from my shoulders. Now. . . hello, research paper. Christmas break will be cherished.

| Wow! Only fifty-five minutes until my birthday. I think this is the first year I haven't eagerly anticipated it weeks in advance. I just haven't had time to think about it! But I am excited now - I love birthdays! It's going to be a unique one this year. For the first time, I won't be able to spend it with any of my family. Concert Choir leaves tomorrow morning for Davison, Michigan and we will not return until Sunday evening. I'm sure this will be a happy way to celebrate it - I love choir - but it's just different. I suppose I should be used to that by now. 
Nineteen. . . whoa! Eighteen has been a good year. . . lovely, actually. I think if I had to summarise this year in a song, it would be "The Dreams I Dream For You" by Avalon. Wow, what a year. . . Oh, Lord! You have been so good! I cannot look back at this year without noticing over and over again how faithful you are. . .
