Have you ever noticed that as you go off to college that your friends from back home seem to grow apart? I have noticed this in my life. Some of the girls that were really good friends seem not to talk with me any more. I have no idea what has happened besides each of us going our own way. Sometimes Iwish we would still talk, but I do not think it will happen. When I was at home this summer, one of the girls and I spoke for about 5 mins before she rushed off to hang out with the youth gang. However, not all friendships went down the drain. One of them grew stronger. I think this is possible because we both went pretty far away from home and we are both serious about our education. What brings this up? Today is her birthday. I wish I hadn't lost her extension. I would have called her and surprise her. But I emailed and wished her happy birthday. I cannot wait till Christmas so she and I can hang out again. This Christmas is going to be a lot of fun. I know a part of growing up includes growing apart from those close to you in high school. Sometimes, I believe that these friendships I make here at college will be longer lasting and much deeper then those in high school because of dorm life. I certainly miss some of those high school friendships, but I love my friendships here at college. I wouldn't trade the friendships I have now for anything.

Tonight I went down to the 41 soccer expecting to watch the game. I did not change out of the skirt I wore for my presentation that morning. The games started late because the fields were not ready and there was only one ref with one whistle. Some how I was asked to be a ref. So here I am being a ref with no whistle and my brother floor is playing. I let some things slide the first half but the second half i tried to crack down on fouls. I successfully called a few. It took the players a few seconds to understand the that I was calling a foul. Anyways, they won 5-0. The game was overall good. On the way back, I asked B.J. how did it end I was asked to ref. He was like, the other team said there were no refs and asked if someone on the team would do it, they did not really want to, they then asked if a person on the sidelines could, other team said yes, so some 41er (I dont know who) suggested that I could do it. So I did it. it was fun but hard at the same time. And at this moment in time, I have a very terrible headache, so it is off to bed for me.

As I await my LSAT scores, I am exploring what seem like thousands of law schools. They have all been looking a like until today. I went to the Career fair today. While there, I talked to a representative from Regent University and the Dean of Liberty Law. Liberty University is located in western Virginia. This is a brand new law school. So there will be risks in going to this school. This school is not ABA acredited yet, but it cannot be accredited until the school as been in existence for a year. The dean of the law school said that they are doing everything to assure ABA accredidation. Also, because of the school's newness, they are giving out good financial packages to attract students. However, I do not think that the finanial packages will be the thing to get me, but instead it would be the Constitutional programs which that is what they want to specialize in. The dean was a constitutional litigator with the 1st amendent. So he was excited that I was into the Constitutional law. I will keep you updated on this process. I just have to think about the risks i will be taking if i decide to attend this school.

Switchfoot - I Turn Everything Over


Monday found me on my knees again
Breathing You in
To blur the lines that mark where I begin
And where You end
No use in trying to pretend
Come take me again
'Cause rumor has it I'm not who I've been
Come define me

What can we do
If the rumors are true?

I turn everything over
I turn myself in
I turn everything over
I turn myself in
There's nothing left for me to defend
I turn everything over
I turn myself in, yeah

The evidence convicts the hollow men
After looking inside
To my dismay I find I'm just one of them
'Cause I'm an already but not yet
resurrected fallen man
Come break this limbo
And I know You know just who I've been
Come define me

Rumor has it You love me
Rumor has it the world spins upside down
Rumor has my only hope is You
And the rumors are true
I turn everything over
