crazy day!

Tuesdays are always fun and something to look forward to for me because i have the day off from work and school! so me and jess decided we would just drive around and go wherever our hearts desired! we started out going to the cutest coffee shop in the world called Milk and Honey. Its in costa mesa off bristol and baker, really close to The LAB. when i walked in i instantly thought of my sister jenny. I am positive she would love this place. Its so tiny and tranquil and everything is vintage. The coffee and tea is all organic. they even have frozen yogurt mmmmm :] Then we went to pita fresh grill which is part of my homework assignment for speech class. i had to go to a new place and try something new and give a review on it for my class. so I tried greek food! It was good until i started seeing a lambs face when i was eating my gyro. Then i decided to just grub on the hummus! mmmm so wonderful :] Then we went to the goodwill and i spent 30 dollars! i never spend 30 dollars at the goodwill. but i got the cutest pair of boots it was worth it!!! our next stop was everyones favorite place TARGET. since i spent all my money at the Goodwil i watched jess decide whether to buy a 2 pack of black v-neck tees or a pair of superman boxers. hahaaha she picked the v-necks :]Then we went to jessicas house and read Colossians and listened to Chuck tracks with britt and joey. THEN we went to pinkberry and it was confirmation of why i love frozen yogurt so much. and then i got to hear my mothers beautiful voice, her and my stepdad are in JAMAICA on vaca and i havent heard from her in a few days. I loved chatting even for a minute i miss her! Our random day ended with Glee and lots of laughs, maybe a few tears, and thats all!


a new season....

I wasnt supposed to move back to OC until april, But I was really struggling with certain idols in my life and I was praying that God would reveal His plans for me. So, my move actually happened in February. My first day here, I looked and researched for a church with a college group i could attend. I had a few places lined up for my first week, starting with Calvary chapel westgrove's college group on thursday nights. Im sitting in my car, debating on going in. I never knew how hard it would be to walk in ALONE to a completely new college group, im not shy by any means so this was just a completely new experience for me. when i finally walked in, this beautiful, energetic, extremely welcoming girl introduced herself. "HI!!!! Im JESSICA!!!!! WHATS YOUR NAME!?" haha i cant help but laugh now at how terrified i was! Little did I know this was only the beginning of such a beautiful new season in my life... Its opened so many doors for me to grow in Christ and serve the kingdom. I have no distractions now, Im not worried about pleasing others, im completely focused on pleasing my savior. This is the most heart change ive had as a christian, and all glory and praise goes to my father in heaven. this blog is to my friends and family who thought i dropped off the face of the earth. Im just letting you all know that Im alive and Ive never had so much Joy.
Things im reading: im everywhere in my bible, no specific book at the moment
When people are big and God is small.
starting The Bride wore white soon!
