“The power of a glance has been so much abused in love stories, that is has come...”
– Victor Hugo (via atomos)
Total Fail. Cute boy in pub talking to me about literature. What do I do? Be awkward. Then we leave. Lame.
It’s my last Friday night in London, I want to do something fun and out of the ordinary.
I miss friends who actually want to go out.
J.K. Rowling was at the Victoria and Albert Museum yesterday, literally right around the corner from where I live and I missed seeing her?!?!?!?!!?! Life is just not fair sometimes.
breanna-lynn asked: Thank you for liking and reading the post I wrote... I just couldn't contain how amazed I am at the simplicity of being surrendered and faithful before the Lord as we seek and follow Him! HE is faithful.
I hope you are having a blessed day :)

magicallykarisa asked: Hey! Idk, to me the Hunger Games never had a dead moment. It's like an action story with romance and sadness too. Although they're probably more like teen books, I think you'd like them :)
"I recommend Bath to you"
This past weekend, I completed my series of day trips in England by visiting Bath. Although it rained on and off all day I found Bath to be a very pleasant and beautiful city. I began my day by having breakfast at a cafe called Boston Tea Party. I loved it! The food was amazing and the service was great! It also has a wonderful, cool vibe that I love so much in cafes. I then briefly checked out...

” I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.”

Some things never change. I need a serious dose of positivity right now.

Just saw Kevin Spacey in Richard III at the Old Vic. My mind is blown. It was beyond brilliant.

“I know our culture will sometimes understand a love for Jesus as weakness. There is this lie floating around that says I am supposed to be able to do life alone, without any help, without stopping to worship something bigger than myself. But I actually believe there is something bigger than me, and I need for there to be something bigger than me. I need someone to put...
You’ve tried to avoid being pigeon-holed as a Christian rock group, but how does your spirituality affect how you use your music to help others and spread a message? With everything you do and say every day of your life, the way you spend your time, your money, your energy and the way you treat people, you show what you believe. I couldn’t care less about what you’re singing about. I would ...

The Hallowed Halls of Oxford and Cambridge
While in London, I have made it my goal to see as much of the UK as my weekends will allow me. Oxford and Cambridge were the first places on my list. Although some might say that these two universities are overrated, I admit that I am utterly and completely in love with them. Before visiting my expectations were high. And after said visits, I am even more infatuated with them.
I visited...
I cry because I fear that I will never reach the unattainable. The sadness of longing envelopes me. But I know peace will come in the morning with the future.

I sure hope so :)
Across the Universe, Or Maybe Just Across the...
This weekend I finally made the pilgrimage to Liverpool, England. Liverpool is known as one of the most industrial cities in the UK. But more importantly it is known as the birthplace of The Beatles.
If you know me, you probably know that I have a major obsession with The Beatles. It is not one of those obsessive stages most young people go through where they like The Beatles for a time. No,...
Only One Month Left in London?!
Okay, so I have been rather inconsistent in documenting my year abroad as well as my first month in London this summer. But no more. Carpe Diem. Seize the Day! Now is the time for to really start capturing everything about this amazing experience!
The last three weeks in London have been more than I could ever convey in words. I wake up each morning feeling completely exhilarated and happy to be...
