and at college that almost guarantees a week of no sleep, no energy and tons of things to turn in before a deadline.
but next week is also childhood friend's wedding!
and that guarantees tons of tears, no sleep and out of control fun.
so you can see how i might just need that 5 week christmas break to recoup after all of this madness?
but despite the no sleep part, i am really looking forward to all of this.
i feel like i have been waiting for her wedding for months.
and truthfully i have. because soon after she met the boy, i knew he was something special.
i dont want to say i knew he was "the one" but ok, i did.
he really is.
and i think thats what makes this wedding so exciting to be apart of.
they are just wonderful together.
finals on the other hand arent so wonderful. except for the other day i realized that these are the last winter finals i will ever take. because next spring i graduate.
that fact made me a little sad.
not that i like finals. i dont.
but this season of my life is winding down. and i want to remember every part of it.
like the christmas tree lighting last week.
it snowed!
ok. it snowed for california.
fake snow was brought in and blown around. (all east-coasters may shake their heads here)
but it was magical none the less.
snowflakes on the trees!
the kings men singing
joy to the world! let heaven and nature sing!
its because:
Today a child is born on earth
(Today a child is born on earth)
Today the glory of God shines everywhere
For all of the world
Oh Jesus born on this day
He is our light and salvation
Oh Jesus born on this day
He is the King of all nations
Behold the lamb of God has come
(Behold the lamb of God has come)
Behold the Savior is born
Sing of His love to everyone
Oh Jesus born on this day
Heavenly child in a manger
Oh Jesus born on this day
He is our Lord and our Savior
Today our hearts rejoice in Him
(Today our hearts rejoice in Him)
Today the light of His birth
Fills us with hope and brings peace on earth
Oh Jesus born on this day
He is our light and salvation
Oh Jesus born on this day
He is the King of all nations
Today a child is born on earth
(Today a child is born on earth)
(He is light, He is love, He is grace
Born on Christmas day)
(He is light, He is love, He is grace
Born on Christmas day)
(He is light, He is love, He is grace
Born on Christmas day...)
