a pace maker is for old people...

soooo i've had a very interresting week to say the least. so here it goes. Im in Troy gettin ready to move rooms in my house and mom and I go to the furniture store to get something for my room. I start to feel dizzy and sick to my stomach and all sweaty so i go outside to sit down. Im all light headed and not feeling to well. Mom comes out so i start to get up and walk to the car. The next thing I remember I am waking up in the hospital. so here is what happened in between my memories....

i walk to the car and step off the curb and apparently lost all color and fell flat on my face and passed out. mom said i was gone for about a min or so. She said I couldnt remember anything for about an hour, like that we had come to troy, where i was at, what happend or anything else. Some construction workers were in the parking lot and they called 911 and an ambulance came and took me to Troy's hospital. I wake up there and am in paaaaaiiin. my face hurt, but it would after be slammed into the pavement. well my heart rate is super low in the 30's and isnt good. i felt fine and thought i could go home. they wouldnt release me to go without being sent to Montgomery to talk with a cardiologist.

so I get transported via ambulance to the montgomery hospital, my heartrate still in the 30's and 40's, and talk to the cardiologist. She checks me out and gets a second opinion from another doctor and decides to wait til morning to do anything. All night long my heartrate still has done nothing. So 10 am Friday morning they decide to operate on me. i personally didnt think i needed one but i was forced to get a pacemaker put in.

Now the surgery is over and im home. i feel the same and still see no reason to have had a pacemaker put in. im a little sore but very thankful that I am alive and ok. God was looking after me that day because things could have been so much worse than they were. I am very lucky. I thank everyone who called and asked about me. i have the best friends and family in the entire world and i am very lucky to have them care about me so much. As for me, i am just taking it one day at a time. a very good friend of mine told me thats all i can do and not to worry about tomorow. God will handle all that. so for now i am doing well and ready to get 100%.

P. S.... rush starts this week and im super excited, scared because now i am Panhellenic President but excited to take on the challenge.

much love, p-slip!!

Soooo... sitting at home, bored to death what should i do. nothing. absolutely nothing. i havent done a thing since camp got over. you would think living in Hoover I could find something to do, but I need people and all my people are busy, working, or in Texas, haha. I need to get more friends haha. I have however gotten waaaay better at guitar hero lol im not too bad. I took it to the lake this past weekend and Sharon, who is like 35 and the biggest princess i know, started playing and absolutely loved it. I love going to the lake with them, the old folks actually do know how to have fun sometimes. Except Marty was planning my wedding with Stephen and Stephen was going along with it. Kinda embarrassing but funny though. aaaanywhooo we spent the day wakeboarding, skiing, tubing and then jumping off 50ft cliffs waaay amazing. Its such a thrill when your stomach jumps to your throat..aaaaahhhh but so much fun! weeelll until next time peace love and pslip!! :)

Post Pine Cove Towers!!

wow. I cant believe 7 weeks went by so fast. Pine Cove opened my eyes to many new things. I absolutely came home a changed person. God taught me so much in the short time I was there and I cannot thank him enough for his amazing blessings he has given me. The friends I made there complete me. I dont know what im going to do without them. good thing we have facebook lol. it feels so weird to be back home in Alabama. Texas was my home for so long i almost forgot about bama. i miss it sooo much. i cant wait til i move there, its going to be AMAZING. those kids there were so precious and i am so glad i got the opportunity to work there. its really depressing that im not there anymore. right now we would be in our sports clinic, well not me, i never liked soccer and somehow always migrated over to flag football. i love my football buddies. discrete, toast, and break it down. oh how i miss those guys. window, oooh oooh!! lol. its seriously a hard time to leave pc towers. it was my life for so long it felt like. i dont know what to do now. a little jeff johnson session will do me just fine. oh glorious day!!!!!! i cant wait!!!

peace, love, and pslip!

headed out west!!

PINE COVE HERE I COME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am super pumped that Im going to camp today. forget about the 9hr car drive, i just cant wait!!!! Summer with Jesus!! oh yeah baby!! haha

Amazing Love

How Great is Our God! that songs just makes me think of how awesome a God I serve. He is absolutely wonderful and words just cannot describe how wonderful he is. How can you look at a beautiful sunset and not know there is a God. I wonder that all the time, how people can look at their kids, their family, and their life and not believe in such an amazing thing as God. Im thankful that I am forgiven and accepted for who I am. God blessed me with so much that I no where near deserved. His amazing love captured me and allowed me to be free. For that I am thankful and praise him.
I am at a loss for words.

"And we know that God causes everything to work out together for the good of those who love God adn are called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28

just some thoughts

I wonder how one minute your life could be absolutely amazing and being going so well, then the next its like how did this happen? I am so confused and lost about what im doing with my life and where i am supposed to be. My heart hurts and there isnt anything i can do about it. I know what i have to do and i try to everyday, but for some reason something brings me back. Ive given it to God so many times. What a wonderful God I serve. He loves me no matter how many times i screw up or how ever many times I take back part of my life which should be his. He knows me inside and out. How beautiful he is. Wow. I waste my time on the littliest details about my life.
I talked to my dad today and he says that God puts frustration in your life to make you who he wants you to be, stronger and more dependent on him. I know this is true, but i still cant seem to figure how to deal with things. I just wish I could get over him alredy and move on. Thats really what is keeping me back and I know it shouldnt. Hes moved on and i should too. I just cant help still being attached. He kinda made me part of who i am today. Im thankful for the time we spent together but there comes a time where you just have to give up, let go, and let God.
I've been real confused about God's purpose for my life but the other day before exams were out, me and Lindley(twin) were driving and it all of a sudden hit me. I was meant to be in Troy to meet her. Without her i dont know how i could have survived the last year. She is always there for me and I know that is one reason and one purpose for me being at Troy. I was just recently appointed Vice President of Panhellenic at Troy which entitles me to be there for another 2 years. I was plannin on leaving Troy bc i was so unhappy but i cant now. For some reason im supposed to still be there. I dont exactly know how or what God is wanting me to do there, but i know its something. Im praying for strength, light, and ability to get through my life down there. Its really hard but if he has a purpose for me down there then im going to fulfil it and do it with his strength.

.....in another light im starting to pack for texas and its all hitting me fast. 7 weeks. i cant wait to get out of Alabama. A new surrounding, new people, and a new adventure is just what i need to get my mind off of some things.

"I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, "Go throw yourself in the sea," and it will be done. If you believe you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer." Matthew 21:21-22
