Procrastinations and Ventings of a Moody Woman

Location: Chicago, Illinois, United States

Currently I'm in my Junior year at Moody Bible Institute in downtown Chicago. I am finishing up my degree in Elementary Education. The program is pretty much the hardest elementary ed program you could imagine, but I love it a lot because it's the only place I know of that you can be a Bible and El Ed major at the same time. We work really hard to that end, but it is very cool to be some of the first people to learn an integrative philosophy of Christian education. I can't wait to start practicing all this; and the countdown is on, because in a little over a year I will be doing full time student teaching.

Sorry I have no pictures for you all. I promise my post-europe post will be littered with them. I am home in Phoenix for the first time in five months actually. What has changed? Well, it's hot. I guess that's the same, but it is a big change from Chicago.
I am working at Kyrene Kids Club this summer, which is an afterschool program for elementary kids. I am with the 1st grade group. I went to work for the first time yesterday and it was pretty decent.
In more interesting news, my mother and I leave for Europe tommorow! Well, kind of, we leave for Chicago tommorow and Europe on thursday. Also, Jon Heacock the former tenet in the house I now reside in (by which I mean he used to live here--in my room actually) is marrying my good friend Dallas Miller on that saturday we get back. Paul is one of the best men and Jay is one of the groomsmen (have fun trying to figure that out).
Well, in closing congratulations to all Dallas and Phoenix family on the big basketball wins last night. I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer!

My friend took this picture of me on our way back from studying at starbucks today. Studying, that's the name of the game this week. Studying, packing, stress, and conflict... That pretty much sums up my life this coming week. Okay, not really, there's always time to laugh and enjoy life. I believe that contentment is an inner attitude. But in all seriousness, I have been having a bit of a long week and could use prayer. I love all of you guys and will see those of you in Arizona in exactly one week. Wow! Almost There...
