Ex-FBaholic

So, I'm sitting here on my blogger with one other tab open ... and HOLY CRAP GUESS WHAT!??

the tab that is open ISN'T Facebook!!!!!! ....

woah ... big deal! I have joined the ranks of those who are taking a .. b..b...bre...breaaaa...

break
(whew! that was tough to say!)
from Facebook ...




For once, I'm not procrastinating because Facebook is glued to my tabs list!

...
I'm procrastinating because I'm too lazy to start getting ready for school ... :/

BUT at least it's not Facebook! ... right?

crap... if I can't use the 'i'm addicted to Facebook' excuse anymore, I guess I need to get busy, huh?



packing....
(oh the joy?)

These are the times I wish I was a skinny girl ... they fit more clothes in a suitcase at once =P

(that ain't gonna happen!)

Anywaaay ... so yeah, despite not being on Facebook I still:

  1. procrastinate
  2. spend useless time on the internet blogging
  3. don't get anything done

this should be interesting! hahaha

Who woulda thunk it??

MonicaDee's giving up Facebook! ;)

Easy Avenue? Nah!

so I'm looking at previous posts on here and I can't help but do one thing:

LAUGH. hysterically.






The irony of life entertains me. For a few reasons...


...My post about skipping chapel and feeling bad about it and making it a one time thing?
It was like a thirty time thing ... like seriously. I skipped chapel so much in both of my semesters that I barely made my spiritual formation credits requirement!
((THANK YOU S.I. CENTER!!!))


...my post about accepting change and being okay with it and it's for the better lah dee dah?
I wasn't "okay" with it. I was at first, but eventually, I got reeeeal depressed.
......the kind of depressed that puts ya in counseling.
((But I sucked it up and now I'm MUCH better))


College isn't what I thought it'd be ... college is not even remotely care-free. Not when you're me, at least ... Definitely not when you're me ;)




I slacked off miserably and went through two weeks of hell trying to catch up... both semesters.
Talk about cramming? I was the queen of cramming stuff into last minute
((...the last LATE minute, that is.))



I did soul searching and came back with negative results because I forgot to soul search in the presence of God ... the results of my soul searching was a few months without the peace of God inside of me ...

I thought being at a Christian college meant I'd be fed constantly and I wouldn't have a care in the world when it came to my walk with God - it would be constant growth ...

WRONG.

Being at a Christian college doesn't make my walk any easier...



so what did I learn? Because I had to have learned SOMETHING...

I came to a pt in my life where my walk couldn't be based on what others thought it was, or what I pretended it was ... God wanted a relationship with ME, not who I pretended to be ((the "high and mighty" Christian girl who went to a Christian college and was going into ministry!!))

I came to a pt where I realized that God did not exist in the lies of "I'm okay" and "Just praising through the storm!" because really, I was screaming and yelling at Him ... not praising. And I wasn't okay.

I came to a pt where God met me, said He loved me but not who I pretended to be...

I came to a pt where I realized I wanted a legit, love God and drop all of who I am and become all of who He wants me to be, relationship with God...

It was a great pt to be at :)

Who woulda thunk it? Monicadee opened her eyes!

*clears throat* ATTENTION NEW ARRIVALS!



So...

it's the 2nd semester of my college career...
(oooh.. sounds so important!)
and I'm sitting at my desk...


in my new room..
with my new roomate...
on a new floor...
with a new insight to change...



LoTs. of. cHanGe...



and I'm okay with it ... it's brought about some awesome things :) I am up earlier (woah), on time more (much bigger woah), and even better - I have internet access...

yes, that's the best part because I'm a facebook/internet junky...


(My name is Monica Taylor and I'm addicted to the world wide web)


*back to reality*

Italic
so I'm at my desk..

in my new room...
with my new roomate...
on a new floor...
with a new access to the internet more often...
butItalic serving an unchanging God...

And I think I LOVE it... :)

Who woulda thunk it?

MonicaDee is okay with change!
