"Fin de siècle is French for 'end of the century.' The term sometimes encompasses both the closing and onset of an era, as it was felt to be a period of degeneration, but at the same time a period of hope for a new beginning."

The last day of photo of the day. It is in fact, the end of an era. The end of daily documentation of what has occurred in the last year.

I am different. I am closer to God now that I was then. I am more of an adult. I am emblazoned with passion once more.

I am excited. I am excited for what the future holds. I am excited for who I will meet, for where I will go.

It has been a wonderful wonderful year. God has made Himself so evident throughout.

I pray that He would use me as a vessel, after correcting me and growing me this past year. I want only to serve and know Him.

This is the end! Thank you for sharing the year with me! Many of you who were following me hold a very very dear spot in my heart and this year would not have been the same without you!

In my mind I can't really comprehend graduation.

Perhaps its because I have one more class.

Perhaps it is because I am super stressed this week trying to push for the best grade in my classes. I feel like they have been unusually hard anyways this semester (of course because of math and science, give me an English class and stand back).

Tonight I am really going to push through and try and finish both of these big papers.

Graduation is NEXT WEEK!

There is a house I'll live in soon,
A house on a small street.
Where birds shall sing and eat their food,
Where friends will come and meet.

There is a house, it will be mine,
Or at least it will in part.
For in this house joy will be shared,
and that is a great start.

Happy Easter!

A great joy fills my heart in knowing that I have this great salvation.

Spent the day with the Caine's in Willmar. Played some croquet, found some dead snakes, and got quite a nice Easter basket.

Here's a picture tribute to my friend Michelle!

Those are my feet dangling off the top of the football stand. I watched the geese fly over the field and saw Crown doze to the sunset.

I am super contemplative with graduation approaching, and definitely finding it bittersweet that I will be finishing this project soon. Time to move on to bigger and better things!
