Little Late Night Update

It's late. It's almost 12am. I got off work at 10 tonight and had to run to Wally World. I bought some notebooks, folders, erasers and desserts for a "Back to School Bash" that my mission team is hosting...that I don't even get to go to. I'm working. I wasn't allowed off...

So I figured I'd buy some things to go in their backpacks at least, ya know?

On another note; I got registered for classes at EKU! I'm so excited, but at the same time, not so much. But I'm still so excited to finally start-start college! I took some online classes at BCTC earlier this year...but that didn't work out so good...
But now I'm going to the Danville campus of Eastern Kentucky University! Yes, yes and yes. Though I'm only taking the boring classes right now...psychology, college algebra, American Civ, ect. I do have one class I can't wait to take though! But its a one-day class...I take it one Sunday and then it's done. But the class lasts from about 9am to 6pm. It's an EMC class, basic emergency health care. I can't wait! I'm so excited!
I need to get a CPR certification. Fast. That way I don't have to worry about it in college.

That's all I'm writing tonight though. I have to get up early to run these notebooks and stuff over to some people in the mission group. And I work at 11am tomorrow. So sleep might be a good idea.

Make it a blessing,
Sarah



P.S. No, the site still isn't up...I'm working on it though. Promise! Surely but slowly...

Steam. Gamers Beware.

A quickie.

It's 11:30 and I'm awake looking at this amazing deal going on Steam.

***For those of you who do not know what Steam is; it's a gaming site. My nerdy-hotty-boyfriend (that I've been with for four years and will have to make a whole entire post about introducing ) Austin introduced me to it a coupe of weeks ago. I've been so busy with work and the webbysite that I haven't taken the time to see the potential of the full site. It's pretty awesome. You can check it out here: http://store.steampowered.com/
***

Anyway, there's this big sale going on Steam. Games for under $10. $5. Free. (The only reason I found out was because said-mentioned-boyfriend called me during work and left me a voice-mail about it.) I fear for my paycheck. I really do. They have the new Tomb Raider game for $12.95.
It's still about $60 in Walmart.
Oh, but the games are all for the PC. That's the thing. You can't buy games for 360 or PlayStation, but honestly for these prices, who wouldn't just toss sell their consoles and buy an amazing gaming computer? I mean really? And Steam has deals like this going on all the time. (Or so I'm told. I'm still a "noobie".)






But, for anyone who already has it; add me! You can find me under "Airianne". Don't be hoping to be impressed by tons of hours and badges though. I don't have many.

And yes, I do still have that test at 9am tomorrow morning in Danville. ;)

Make it a blessing,

Sarah

Today's Blessing


One of life's blessings are the shady trees outside, blocking harmful UV rays from scorching my white, pale skin (which was so recently nice and dark thanks to a spray tan that has now worn off...). I love trees. I love grass. I love the outdoors. 
I do hope this heat wave cools down some though.

Study Time

Afternoon! Well, its the afternoon where I'm at...so, um hey?

I feel so lazy, though I just got in from exercising outside. Because I honestly need to do some indoor things instead of outdoor like say, studying and working on the website and....studying? I have a big placement test at EKU's Danville campus Monday because BCTC completely messed up my transcript. So EKU didn't know which math class to put me in...so now I have to be up at the campus by 9am and take a long, long test on my least favorite subject. Yaaaaay!
But then my orientation is Wednesday! Which I'm completely pumped for; I can't wait!!!

I'm not too sure what I'm going to do about my job though...Who knows what my school schedule is going to be like? I really hope the only days I get off aren't the days I go to school...but money is money. And money is goooood. (You know, for bills and such other expenses.)

Gah, I hate being an adult.

Then there's the subject of the degree I'm going to get. Which I really don't even want to think about right now. I haven't a clue.
(Photographer? Book-store-owner? P.A?)

Well, study time. I need to get some done before I go to work.

Let it be blessed,

Sarah

Today's Blessing


Today's Blessing:





I don't know what I'd do without my hair-dryer. I surely wouldn't make it anywhere on time...or I'd arrive everywhere with wet locks. And I'm not Rose, so it wouldn't be attractive. 
I'd had my blow-dryer for a few years now (passed from my momma) and it hasn't given up on me once. 
Thankful for the little things. :)

Hello

Hi, my name is Sarah. I'm a young woman in college living in the Eastern backwoods of Kentucky. I reside in an old farm house that stretches on a couple of acres surrounded by beautiful rolling hills and vast miles of luscious greenery. My dad and I live together here in perfect father-daughter-harmony. (Watching cheesy sci-fi's on Netflix, taking turns feeding our very many puppy-dogs on alternating nights and switching up milk-buying duties.)

God. Love. Family. Friends.

Each of these things make my world go 'round and 'round. Without God I would be nothing. Without love I would feel nothing. Without family I would be no one. Without friends I would have nothing. I cling to each of these things like a dying man clings to his last breath of life. Blessings; each one of them. 

"Count your blessings, not your problems." 

I like to dabble in photography; I've done some portraits, lots of still shots, some seniors and even two weddings (that I took on a little too eagerly for my own nerves). Starting a photography business? Maybe. I'm still young so I'm not sure. I also want to own a bookstore and study to become a P.A. (a physician's assistant). None of those seem to go hand-in-hand so I'm sorta in a dead-lock.

I've decided to go ahead and try out this photography thing though; if only to get a taste. I love capturing the beauty and blessings of this world that God has given to us; I'm just not sure if I'm ready to paid for that yet.
 

Consequently here we are. My blog "Catching Blessings" (photography).













 



























I guess we'll find out. :)

'til next time,

Sarah
