Story Time with Mia

I am a 21 year old college student at Purdue University. I am currently in my third year studying elementary education. I love to dance especially swing...so if you know of any good places to go leave me a comment. My one heart's desire would be to live a life pleasing to God and glorify him in all I do. If I could go anywhere in the world I would go back to Russia...I love the people there! I want to travel all of Europe someday too! Mexican food is the bomb! And kids rock my socks!

Weekend Update

Alright, so friday night was a fairly interesting evening...I spent my night at the roller rink here in Lafayette. There was one really disrespectful boy that would yell over at me to help him...I gave him the teacher stare and didn't serve him for a couple minutes and he settled down. I also had a few kids come up to me and say we need one dollar each. I supressed my giggles long enough to tell them that I don't give out money...sorry! It was pretty cute other than the fact that they sadly walked away.

I woke up on saturday with a few hours before heading to the rink again. It was a good day...I hosted most of the birthday parties and made a total of $22 in tips. It was pretty awesome. One of the skating parties was for a 1 year old boy. Seriously, can 1 year olds even walk?...let alone skate.

Today was a wonderful day worshipping God and fellowshiping with other believers. I often wake up thinking I just want to go back to bed but its always such an awesome thing to go to church...I'm never disapointed! Kara and I had a good time going over to the girls apartment down the way. We ate pancakes and heard Meg's testimony. It was really interesting to listen to.

Another Cheesehead!

Alright, so I went to church this morning because I wanted to and because of its eternal importance. But I skipped sunday school and the fellowship dinner and life chain afterwards.

This is not it though, I also managed to sleep through the entire evening service...yep I slept!

The consequences for my heathenism comes during my nap...so i'm laying on the couch next to our front window and all of the sudden I hear bang...thud silence silence silence bang...thud silence silence silence bang...thud etc. I think to myself...what is this noise. I look out and one of my neighbors is throwing a ball against the fence...what a cheesehead! Oh well I guess I should have been in church.

My second disturbance came when my cellphone, which was sleeping with me rang!
Girl: Where's grandma
Me: yeah grandma's not here...I think you have the wrong number.
Girl: no I don't...where's grandma...who is this.
Me: Who is this?
Girl: says her name which I don't remember
Me: This is my cellphone...no grandma lives here...I think you have the wrong number
Girl: hangs up
No apologies just hangs up! Another cheesehead!

Well I guess that had I been in church I might not have been disturbed...but then again if i had not turned my phone on silent the phone call might have disrupted the entire service!

P.S. Cheesehead is meant as a term of endearment...not as name calling
