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.

Who knew?
When I started my blog at the age of 13, I had no idea that it might one day get me a job.
That's right, a job! Like a real paying job! I had an interview in the Purdue admissions office this morning, and they would like me to blog a few times a week for them. I still get to write my conversational posts about every day life, in the hopes of engaging possible incoming students. I can do long posts or short posts, include photos or songs, and I don't have to worry about making it formal or professional. I am pretty excited about it. Maybe I'll do double posts on this blog. We shall see how it goes.
I will start posting sometime next week, so please visit the Purdue blogging page and check out my posts!

I feel like such an adult these days
Adultish things I've done lately:
- Taken myself to the doctor (my dad made me make an appointment after being sick for 4 weeks...and all I had was a sinus infection and a very slight case of pnemonia in my left lung. What's the big deal anyway?)
- Taken myself to the social security office (and the guy was so impressed that I had actually taken the time to fill out the form for a new card before I came in. Apparently people don't really do that. But I did!)
- Taken myself to the BMV (I know, I know, so this means I drove to my driving test. It makes no sense. Weird things happen when you switch countries, okay??)
- Prepared to move (for the 3rd time since I've been back in America...which has only been a little over a year!)
But then, those things are always counteracted by the not-so-adultish things that I tend to do, including:
- Giggling when I mess up on the alto part in church (or when Zachary tries to sing it with me)
- Attempting to do an ab work-out with some friends and collapsing onto the floor in laughter (there is no disclaimer to this. It just happened. And we definitely got more of a workout from the laughter)
- *Unintentionally* insulting my friends in a large group of people (It just comes out all wrong sometimes!!!)
