A Walk to Remember

So, yesterday I wanted to show my roommate Beth a gorgeous place on campus. I had mentioned it to her earlier and right after worship we went out on our walk. We walked for a little while then went down a hill, and walked a little while longer and went down another hill, now we were far away from the nearest house and enjoying some peace. Beth had brought my camera and was taking pictures, you know, just having fun. Then I look over at Beth and behind her I see this thing, I didn't know what it was, but I was sure it was going to attack and then eat us. "Beth, look behind you" I said very calmly, "what?!". "Beth, look behind you!" now I was scared so I sat down thinking I wouldn't be seen. She looks behind her and starts walking towards me very fast. I got up and we both walked the opposite direction, while she told me that this creature I was absolutely terrified of was a Coyote and was more scared of us than we (I was) were of him, I had a hard time believing that. We got away, although it seemed to be following us, and managed to get a couple of pictures of it. It was a walk to remember.

My Cup of Tea


I didn't use to like tea. Wait, let me take that back... I liked sleepytime with lots and lots of sugar and milk, provided on the day after a sleepover by my friends mom. So this summer I went to Turkey with my mom, and over there it's a custom to drink tea after every meal, so i got to try lots of different kinds of tea, my favorite was the apple. When we got home from Turkey I saw my mom drink liquorice tea, I thought it was gonna be gross, but turned out to be my favorite of all kind! The brand of the tea was Yogi tea, and now that's all I drink. Plus I love opening a new packet and reading the proverb, todays was;

"Greatness is measured by your gifts, not your possessions"
