Simple Faith →
An Atheist Professor of Philosophy was speaking to his Class on the problem Science has with God, the Almighty. He asked one of his new Christian students to stand.
Professor: You are a Christian, aren’t you, son?
Student: Yes, sir.
Professor: So, you believe in God?
Student: Absolutely, sir.
Professor: Is God good?
Student: Sure.
Professor: My brother died of cancer, even though he prayed...

Practice
Today was an awesome practice! It was one of the first practices that I actually felt like I was improving and fitting in with my skills. But one thing makes this all very frustrating. Today was me and my partners day to get the water and gatorade for the team, meaning I got to skip the warmup run. I may have mentioned in previous posts, but I hate running. Absolutely hate running. And I get...

My Roomies!
So I totally realized that I haven’t blogged about my roommates yet! And they are such a huge part of my life now, I have to tell you about them :) Alright haha here it goes:
This is how I’d describe us in titles: The Cheerleader, The Married One, The Rebellious Good Girl, and The Fashionista. haha that’s just getting started.
Natasha is the married one. Her hubby is in the...
Comment!
Everyone go onto this site and comment on my posts. A simple 5 word comment is totally fine. I am trying to win christmas presents for my family because I don’t have time for a job here in Hawaii. I’ll really appreciate it :)

Luuux.com
I have a new site that I have been using, basically as a cure for boredom.
it’s called luuux.com
Basically what you do is create a username and simply post shorts blogs about certain topics. Anything you want. And you get point everytime you do so. People then can comment on your posts, which will give you points, and you can do the same for others. It’s kinda silly, but it...
Inspiration
Yesterday at practice, our coach gave us probably one of the most inspirational talks I’ve ever gotten. A lot of us are sick, hurt, or just struggling on skills we know we can perform. He pulled us all together and this is what he said:

On the road to greatness, there will be ups and downs. People think that...

School
So I’m thinking about changing my major. Right now, I am a pre business major. I wanted to go into advertising and work at creating ads for big time companies like Nike and Apple. I still want to do that. I love the idea of seeing something I created out in public to influence the world. But I’m not liking the business program here in Hawaii. I love it at Portland State. It...

Surprise
So tonight for some reason, I was just really missing my mom and thinking about everything she did to help me get to where I am. You don’t truly think about how much family does for you until it’s too late. Well, I wanted to return the favor (as much as I could) I’m not going to tell you what it is, in case she reads this, but I know she’s going to love it. And it makes...

Everyone please keep Ciara in your prayers. According to her online journal, she is really improving. You can visit the link above to sign her guestbook and read entries about how she is doing. Something so simple as praying for her could be what leads her back to being healthy again.

The Little Things
…are the things I miss the most. Today, I’ve just been feeling lonely. And it made me think about the things I miss about being home. And the first thing that came to my mind is…hugs. Pathetic, I know. But I don’t think I’ve gotten a hug since my mom left. And thinking about that makes me really sad. I’m still new here, I totally understand that. And it...
Star Wars

Alex: :) happy you make me

Alex: and love I am in :)

Realizations
Tonight, I went with a bunch of my teammates to the beach to sing and worship. I ended up thinking and praying almost the entire time. As I looked up at the starry sky with the skyline behind me and the palm trees surrounding me, I realized how truly lucky I am. I felt such a strong connection with God and he gave me comfort. I now know that there are some things I will never be able to...

Night Recap
So tonight me and all my roomies showed each other pictures of all of the boys throughout our lives (boyfriends, exes, guys we liked, middle school crushes, etc) We all had such funny opinions about what we all thought about each other’s previous taste. Thank goodness I have pretty good standards, but they all said Alex was by far the cutest. And their opinions about my other recent...

Bad Night
Tonight, I went clubbing. Yes, I decided to go clubbing. Not my style at all. My roommates really wanted me to give it a try and I was convinced to go. I ended up coming back earlier than the rest of them.
It was not fun in the least. A bunch of slutty girls and creeper guys dancing on each other. Everyone trying to get at each other. No respect for personal space. I’m the true...

Football!
Tonight was awesome! It was the first football game of the season and my first game cheering for the warriors! There are so many things I could talk about!
-The stadium is amazing! I’m used to cheering at mediocre fields and this just blew my mind. There were seats so high up, the people look like ants haha
-The fans (and crowd in general) get really into the game. The stadium was...
Ciara Nestlen
Everyone please keep this girl in your prayers. She goes to Lake Oswego High School, the school I graduated from. I don’t know much about the situation but here is what I do know:
Her and her boyfriend (or I guess ex at the time) took their car out to a road where there are no speed limits to race with some friends. At the end of the race, they hit gravel and the car spun and hit a tree....

Dedication
I just got out of our morning workout. We only do it once a week and it was crazy intense. The girls had to do 50 pullups, 150 pushups, and 200 squats. Guys had to do double us. We could do them in sets of however many we wanted, but after one set of each, we had to run a lap around our basketball center. It was crazy.
Thinking about this morning, and all of our practices actually, gives me...

15 Day Challenge All In One!
1. Do you know how your parents picked your name? I don’t think they had a specific reason for choosing Jaime. I know my mom wanted to name me Aimee and my dad didn’t like it so they added a J to it. I also know that my name would have been James if I was a boy.

2. Do you have any article of clothing that has a lot of memories attached to it? Umm no not really. Not that I can...
