Why YOU Are Amazing! - Kera

I am glad that this is taking off...:)

It's been a little intense over on this playing field (I just thought of all of us on a baseball field playing a game....innyhoo...). I've had a ton of stuff coming at me with my classes. Calculus and analytical chemistry are kicking my bootay. Thankfully my New Testament class is enrapturing and I am acing my tests :D He's a great prof too! My classes for next semester are looking to be: Analytical Chemistry II, Calculus II, Old Testament, Criminal Law, and Criminal Evidence. :)

On a more personal note....(classes are great, but I want to hear more than classes from y'all....;) ) I have grown to be more assertive and bold (so those of you who pestered me to stand up for myself / be more assertive, guess what?! It has happened. haha) It is simply a boldness that comes from being in Christ. My parents and I have found a whole new loving relationship. You guys know how I used to think of my parents and I am so glad I am not prisoned by that anymore. Sure, sometimes I feel frustrated by them, but I have grown to love them no matter what. I even wrote them a very mushy letter :) I have a found a really hilarious friend here on campus that has such an incredible faith and we're both in the same bible study from home so it's just phenomenal. She's hilarious and makes me think of you all at different times. haha. I'll honestly say that I have a lot of great people around me here, but I've been searching for a good female friend in my life at CU and God brought her. I am truly thankful for that. I have to say, since I haven't been around you guys in a while, I am starting to not be so touchy feely hah (Moima started that in me baha!) I mean I'll poke and punch, but hugs aren't as often, though I do pat Zach's knee when I am assuring him after I just teased him. haha Strange isn't it? I have to say I love Robbie more than I used to and I appreciate him a lot more than I used to. I can't believe I've been dating the kid a year and half....it seems just yesterday you all were teasing me because I was "rob"bing the cradle. Baha. So I think what I am saying from all of that is my relationships have really changed a lot. I have grown to love and appreciate you all so much more and just know that even if you don't get a call everyday or a letter once a week from me....I love you guys more than I have before. I am like my dad in that I don't always tell people how I feel about them. So please know that if you don't hear from me often, it doesn't mean I don't care. I think a lot of it comes from the faith and assurance that you are being doted on by your friends there and I know that you are all beautiful and intelligent women with such courage and strength. (P.S. if your friends aren't doting on you, they better be cuz you ladies deserve it!) That is something truly amazing about all of you - no matter where you go, you make a way. I love it about you :) That actually makes me think of my new theme song: Wherever we go, that's where the party's at.

Well, I need to chop chop on some studying and calc. :) God I thank you for each and everyone of these beautiful women you have put in my life. Thank you for their knowledge and humor that they bless me with every time we speak. I pray that every place they walk and every thing they do - that is where the party is at. Give them rest and an abundance of joy. Amen. LOVE YOU GUYS <3
