Trade Day

So, today I had my first ever Trade Day experience. It was fun. I wanted to take all the puppies and the little baby lamb. And kill all the annoying roosters.... And there was this one couple with an AMAZING book table, so I think I must return after I read the four that I bought today. Who can say no to $1 Mary Higgins Clark? Well, maybe most people can, but I cannot.

But this weekend has been a lot of fun. Friday night I went to graduation and got to see a lot of people that I haven't seen in forever! It's crazy how fast time goes by. It seems like yesterday that I was hanging out with those kids, and now we've all graduated. I think I'm going to be pretty sad when I have to return to UAB in the fall. I mean, I know I'll be excited, and I do miss all of you wonderful people there, but I love my friends, family, and my church here so much. And this is my last summer to get to be at home. So, it's going to make it even more sad when I head back to school. But, like Katie says in the Christy Miller Series, "You can't live in the world of 'What if?'." Well, maybe that doesn't really go with this, but it does in my mind lol. It's crazy how much of my life I compare to books.

What if I compared more of my life to the main character in the bible, Jesus. You know, that is crazy. I mean really, I'm always making comments, if not aloud, in my head, about that situation is like when this happened in the Christy Miller Series or that person is like this character in Narnia. What if I stopped comparing the situations in my life to fictional events or characters, and instead compared them with Christ and the Bible.

I mean, don't get me wrong I love books, but this was just a new revelation to me, and I now think that I am rambling.
