Facebook

I certainly do love Facebook. I mean, where else can I have 248 friends in one place? Or spend an entire morning in a Poke war with my little sister? Or get jealous that some girl leaves 10 messages a day on the wall of the man I have a crush on? Facebook - what would I do without you?

I'd probably play more music. And finish that craft project. I'd probably start new projects or ...watch more movies.

But I do love that technology has now allowed me to keep in touch quickly and easily with that girl from grade school who I haven't seen or talked to since fourth grade. Relationships are important to me, and how would I be able to keep in touch with 248 people without technology?

In all seriousness, I do love that I can keep in touch with my dearest friends more than the February Christmas letter. So here's a toast to Facebook. Kyla has thrown a fish at you.

Packing, packing oh how I love packing

One never really knows exactly how much stuff they own until they begin to pack it. I've been spending my free time packing up my things into boxes. This means taking things off of the walls, raiding the kitchen for all supplies with my name on them, cleaning out the dvd cabinet. You all know what it's like. Somehow I feel like I have too many things, yet I'm not planning on getting rid of anything. I am even renting a truck so that I can take it all to Nashville with me.

The more I pack, the more I start to realize that yes, I am moving. That means leaving community and familiarity behind for something new and completely unknown. I was pretty confident about this last week, but with only one week to go - my nerves are kicking in. However, it helps when I give myself a pep-talk.

"Kyla, the timing is right. Many pieces of the puzzle are fitting together. God is great and has taken care of the details. Your friends will still keep in touch. This is a new adventure that has been already blessed. Have fun with it!"

Welcome to Blogging, Kyla!

Ok, so I've joined the great wide world of blogging. I really have no idea how this works, and not many people will read my blog site, so I'm just posting this random message to get started. Have a great day!
