"And when before the throne, I stand in Him complete. 'Jesus died my soul to save.' my lips shall still repeat..."

Here's my monthly update:

I moved August 1st into a townhouse that's decorated beautifully.
I'm starting Daniel Fast again w/one of the roomies, and also trying to re-learn French.
I'm still single.
Something big is happening in my life soon, and i have no idea what it is. But God does so I'm not worried. =) 

"You really got a hold on me..."

I'm currently in the process of house hunting so I can move out with Heidi and Gen.

Lessons learned thus far?

If it's too good to be true, it is.

House hunting sucks.
