the life of a part-time student and barista has been relatively enjoyable this month of september. started off pretty busy.. but things are sort of levelling off now. trying to stay on top of school and working lots still gives me time to hang out with ppl :)

God continues to be good. using these verses to speak to me lately..

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4:6-8

it really is amazing when you present your requests to God.. he answers and gives you peace. and it's up to you to open your eyes to see how He does this.

picture time! some of my faves from summer..

yanboy's birthday - look at the contrasting facial expressions!

dren's birthday @ il fornello

the guys at jesse & priscilla's wedding. look how hot.

phone conversation with victoria...

victoria (multitasking): this hole punching is really thrilling me. have you done any hole punching lately?
theresa: no. but i emptied my 3-hole punch before i moved so that it wouldn't get any white things in my box.
victoria: that's a good idea.
*laughter ensues as we both realize how lame our conversation is*

Send forth your light and your truth, let them guide me; let them bring me to your holy mountain, to the place where you dwell. Psalm 43:3

it's been awhile! so our move is pretty much complete. just settling in.. still lotsa boxes around. altho it didn't go the SMOOTHEST.. PTL still that we have this house to live in. it's definitely more comfortable and enjoyable than the apartment.

i came across a couple pictures while moving that were lost behind my bed/dresser that made me smile :)

this is angela, sharon, christine, and me at lake louise. our trip to BC after first year.


also this one. our frosh year - me, dren, sam, shirley at womens cell sleepover.

seems like good things always come in threes! haha. i'm so thankful for these different groups of girlfriends i have. i can think of a few other groups of threes that are dear to my heart too.

now.. they are gone :(

this year's gonna be really different. my year and up gone.. closest friends not here. it might be easy to get wrapped up with work and school.

psalm 13 really sums up how i'm feeling right now. it's been a long summer. and altho it was filled with events and fun.. somehow it wasn't really fulfilling.

i'm looking fwd to a new start. i'm blessed with being able to go back to school for one more semester and not having to find a real job yet. bring on the new year!
