The Waiting Room |
Saturday, August 31, 2002 Hiiiiiii baby!posted by Gideon Banda at 6:30 AM Friday, August 30, 2002 I had a really nice talk with my sister last night. She called really late though, and so I was up real late talking with her abd got in trouble. She is doing really well. We talked about boys alot. She really likes this guy Jeremy and we talked about him and I really like you so we talked about you. She really wants to meet you. She is struggling in one of her classes alot and she is busier than she had hoped she'd be. She wants me to go visit her so badly. BUT she might come home the Tues after this one just to eat dinner with the fam. I'm excited she said that she'd plan on it. The other morning my little boyfriend Nicholas came over to my house with this box wrapped in paper that was drawn on. He had made me a picture frame with popcicle sticks and had wrapped it himself. It made my day. He's so cute and he uses such big words for being only 5. He kills me. We are going to my grandma's house on Mon for Labor day. I'm not so excited and I won't get to check the blog but we love her and we're always glad to stay with her. She's so cute. She one of the cutest little old women that I know. I won't really get time to spend with her one on one because a lot of the rest of my family will be there too. But I'll have time to catch up on a lot of reading that I'm falling behind in in school. Adam came over to my house a couple of days ago. Fortunatly, I wasn't home. He kills me. Gids, I'm sorry if all that I ever do is tell you stories about my life and as for as much as I don't tell you, You mean so much to me and Every time I hear anything frum you it absolutely makes my day. You are amazing in so many ways. Sweet dreams, Guapisimo.posted by Bethany at 8:53 PM Thursday, August 29, 2002 I'm so disapointed! Guess what happened? I'm not going to be able to see my sister this weekend like I was SO looking forward to doing. We were going to meet her at my grandparents house for Labor day on Mon, but she can't go. I'm SO mad. I haven't see her since she left and I miss her sssooooooo much. Today was such a hectic day. At work, I came in and I didn't know that the kids had just had red jello for snack. Everyone was being so bad today and my co-worker didn't have time to clean up from snack so I walk in and it is absolute madness. One little girls is walking around in only her diaper, so I go to sit down and put her pants on her. Of all the chairs that were at the table I picked the only one that had red jello on it to sit down. I was not happy. AND today is garbage day and I hate doing that. But such is life I suppose. My sister however is suppose to call sometimes so I'm going to get off line and I might write tommorrow but if not, I will either talk to you on Sat or be VERY happy when I see that you have posted to the blog. I'm so glad that I know you.posted by Bethany at 9:53 PM Wednesday, August 28, 2002 Sup, Gideon? My mom just got back from my orientation of my medical class. Did I tell you about it- my college class? Well, it's called Medical terminalogy and Anatomy/Physiology. And it is essentially a sneak peeking into the field of nursing. I'll be learning how to do nursing things like taking vital signs and using doctor office equipment, stuff like that. I will be taking a day off school to watch someone work. And I'll be practicing in the community clinic on patients. She asked me if I still wanted to take the class. She said it was going to be a lot of blood (from disecting) and responsiblity. I said sure. I mean, what do I have to lose? Right after she said that maybe I should think about going to a nursing school after I graduate instead of going to the college that I have been planning on since I've ever had plan. It really got me thinking about my future. Mom said that anywhere I go in the mission field, a nursing degree would be an advantage. I totally agree, but I don't think that I want to go to a public college. Anyway, enough about that. I was showing your pictures to some of mu friends at church and they said "You're right, Bethany, he IS a hottie" Some of them were laughed at me. But I think that it was because I was so excited that I had really good pictures to show off, not because I like a guy who lives in Africa. I'm so excited about my guitar- sorry, that was totally random. I do that sometimes. Oh the randomness made me forget what else I was going to tell you. Well, I feel like I have so much to think about before I will actually sleep, well, maybe not, I'm pretty tired. I'll tell you tomorrow. I'm so glad that you spend time with me. I miss you.posted by Bethany at 10:12 PM Tuesday, August 27, 2002 I have had such a good day! I cannot even tell you how much your letter meant to me. And YES your pictures were hot! It made me miss you so much more. On top of getting your letter today, I also got the rest of my guitar parts that I needed and they were cheaper than I thought they'd be. AND I had a really good day at work today. I suppose it made up for my bad weekend. I'm so glad that God knows what I need. You know what I think is the coolest passage that I have read in a long time? It's in the beginning of 1st Peter, or maybe 2nd Peter chapter one and God talks about adding goodness to your faith and knowledge to your good and He goes down a list and at the end He says "if you posses these things in increasing measure it will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in Christ Jesus" or something like that. That one sure hit me hard. Last night at was talking with this guy that's my project partner in English class and we wound up gettin gin to this huge debate over whether the Bible was or wasn't the word of God and how could God be good etc. It was interesting to see how he looked at the Bible. He had grown up in a Christian home all of his life and after so long he just thought that all of it was bull. It killed me to see his heart so hard to anything that God had for him. Well, Guapisimo, I'm rather exhausted so I think that I will now go to bed with desperate hopes of a dream of you. I miss you SO much.posted by Bethany at 10:36 PM |
