About Me

My life is not my own, for I belong to Christ.

It is because of God's grace and for His glory that I "live and move and have my being."

I am currently back in Indiana, studying English Education at Purdue University, far from the home I've come to know and love in Victoria, Australia

My family means the world to me.

Living in America and loving in Australia, I am blessed indeed. Complete Profile

      Woah, baby, it's COLD outside!

      And cold it shall remain. Today is the first day of WINTER.

      How weird is that!?

      I've been drinking cup after cup of coffee in attempts to stay warm. (I have the instant coffee making down to an art. Come over and see for youself! ;-)) No wonder Aussies drink cuppas all the time!!!

      I've decided I like lists. Here's another one.

      Things I am really, really, really looking forward to:

      • The Guys arriving (one week from today! yessss!)
      • Youth Camp (We go to Dikko [Dixon's Creek] immediately after the Team arrives)
      • Hanging out with The Guys (and especially The Boys!)
      • Finishing Algebra (okay, thinking future here)
      • Getting my drivers license (woah, thinking REALLY futuristicly!)
      • Driving to the snow and skiing/sledding (probably in August)

      Okay, I had more in my head earlier, but apparently I forgot them. Argh! Don't you hate it when something really exciting is about to happen, but you still have to wait for a little bit? I can hardly sit still! This weekend will help time to go more quickly. We're going to Geelong and spending the night with the Mickelsons on Friday, and then (Em)Ily and (M)Egg are coming to spend Saturday and Sunday with us. :-D


      Yesterday we girls re-arranged our room. What can I say? We're women (who happen to be related to our mother and grandmother). It's soo cool and roomy (sort of)! We'll take some pictures, 'kay?


      Here's something Australian I've grown to love (or at least tolerate):

      The Happy Little Vegemite Song
      We are happy little Vegemites as bright as bright can be,
      We all enjoy our Vegemite for breakfast, lunch and tea,
      Our mummy says we're growing stronger every single week,
      Because we love our Vegemite,
      We all adore our Vegemite,
      It puts a rose in every cheek!
      ...We're growing stronger every week!

      Check out www.vegemite.com! :-)

      Song of the post ~ "The Happy Little Vegemite Song"
      ISN'T THAT THE MOST ADORABLE THING EVER!?!? [Refresh the page to hear it again, or scroll down click the "play" button]
