I hate peeping tom's. my best friend informed me today that as she and her boyfriend walked around lake albert yesterday evening that folks were watching from the cafateria to see just how many times they would go around. the saying at bcf goes, "If you walk around the lake 3 times you're gonna get married." i found it very funny that they decided to walk 3 times just to see what people would say to them, and indeed they did. now i had never heard the three times thing, i was under the impression that anytime you walked around the lake with someone of the opposite sex you were going to be getting married! i wonder why wesley never took me for a walk around the lake. anyways, i told best friend not to worry about those crazy folks, they are all just looking for something to talk about anyways. if my best friend and her boyfriend are the only form of entertainment that these people are getting, man do they need to get a life.
anyways, i finally registered for classes yesterday. next semester is not going to be to bad. i think with wesley being gone keeping myself very busy will be the best thing that i can do for myself. i am hoping to get another job where i do not have to work on the weekends so homework shouldn't be a problem and I will also have the oppurtunity to spend some time with my family, wesley's family and my buddies.
i'm outta here.
P.S. To all you people who often pretend to be psychic, you might need to stop before it get you in some major chaos!

Here Ya Go....
I know on several occassions I have mentioned that Wesley and I have been in the process of making some very difficult, yet responsiblie decisions that will greatly affect our future as a married couple. The time has come and I can finally tell you what that decisions is, Wesley is now a soldier in the United States Army! I am very proud of my boy! It's been a long drawn out process but when Wesley left on Friday to go to MEPS, there was a peace that came over me that was absolutely amazing. He has enlisted, been assigned the job of Attack Helicopter Repair (working on Appaches and Black Hawks), and been sworn in. It's a done deal, no turning back now. On January 18, 2006 I will take Wesley to the Dothan Recruiting office and drop him off, he will then be gone for a long 25 weeks. He will go to Ft. Jackson, South Carolina for 9 weeks of Basic Training. All of the Brezina's, myself and Best Friend will all head up the first week of March for his graduation. Then over to Ft. Eustis, Virginia for 16 weeks and 4 days of AIT's. I will again head up during spring break to see him.
Indeed, I will miss Wesley more than I believe either of us know as of now, but I know that because of our willingness to say Yes to the Father we will be blessed. This is not something that we just thought of on our own. Wesley at the age of 14 felt the call to full time ministry through Military Service, but back in August the Father reaffirmed that this is where he has called Wesley to serve.
I must go now, but I will bring more to you later on! Just wanted to let you in on the buzz!!!!

Catch Me if You Can....
Introducing.....Ms. PICKLE! (just a side note)Man, I didnt even realize that it had been almost 2 weeks since I last posted. I must say that things have been quiet eventful and busy. Let me first give props to my bestest friend in the whole wide world, she has indeed met a very magical man,"mr. daniel"! I can truly say that I am happier than ever for her. I just pray that the Father continues to place everything together and works good in each of their lives through their relationship with one another. It is so crazy how the Father takes two individuals who are so imperfect and places them in such a perect relationship not only with himself, but with one another. I can probably say that this guys is the best thing that has ever happened to her. I haven't had the chance to meet him yet, but I do think that he may be in my BF 103 class. He sits on the other side of the room though. Maybe I'll take that chance and introduce myself to him as "THE best friend." I don't want to scare him though, or come across as some mean green eating machine.
So, today I brought Kelly Ann a nice surprise to class. She loved it! That gal cracks me up. After giving her the "treats" I informed her that next time she should include me, I hate missing out on any dangerous fun! People let me just tell you, if you ever plan on messing with any of Kelly Ann's girls, you better watch your back....SHE"LL HURT YOU!
Lins and Keith still seem to be doing great, which is fantastic. I knew from the minute that I realized who it was that she was seeing that he would treat her like a princess. She definately deserves the royal treatment. Keith, not just sometimes.....BUT ALL THE TIME.
Well, Wesley is leaving this afternoon at 12:00 to head out of town for a few days. He can't take his cell phone with him, so while he's gone I won't be able to talk to him. I will miss him bunches, but I guess I should probably get used to him being away and not being able to talk to him, because before too long he'll be gone for a couple of months (atleast 6). Let me just tell you, everything in our marriage is beginning to just fall right into place. The Father is definately blessing us indeed.Financially, we're beginning to get things paid off, which is a huge accomplishment. I can't say that things have been easy, because just like every other married couple we still struggle too, but I can say that I have been given the most extrodinary husband in the whole world. He desires to take care of me, to love me, to meet my every need, and I just love that about him. I desire to do the exact same for him. MAY I MENTION..HE IS SPOILED ROTTEN, and addicted to facebook!
Can you all believe that Christmas is right around the corner. I decided that tonight while Wesley is gone, I am going to head to the Wal-Mart (after I go to the Miss Peanut Pageant) and put some things on layaway. I definately need to get a head start. If I don't get started now, financially I will never be able to purchase all the gifts that I need to.
Oh yeah, I heard on the radio this morning the reason why the "Dollar General" in Graceville burned down.....dum, dum, dum BAD WIRING. Who would have guessed?
We'll today is Boss's Day. I'll be headed up to the Bridal Shoppe around 12:15 for a steak dinner in honor of my boss. I don't really care for steak in the middle of the day, but shoot I am not going to turn down a free meal, especially a free meal that includes NEW YORK STRIP and RIBEYES! I made a triple chocholate, hot fudge cake and rice krispy treats to take.
Let me just make one last note here... IT IS PAST TIME FOR A GALS NIGHT OUT! So lets, get to planning. We'll make it a night thats better than ever! I promise!
Holla Back...

I Want to Cultivate Inner Beauty.
1 Peter 2:21-25 (The Message)
21. This is the kind of life you've been invited into, the kind of life Christ lived. He suffered everything that came his way so you would know that it could be done, and also know how to do it, step-by-step.
22. He never did one thing wrong, Not once said anything amiss.
23. They called him every name in the book and he said nothing back. He suffered in silence, content to let God set things right.
24. He used his servant body to carry our sins to the Cross so we could be rid of sin, free to live the right way. His wounds became your healing.
25. You were lost sheep with no idea who you were or where you were going. Now you're named and kept for good by the Shepherd of your souls.
Last night, God used an extra-ordinary 17 year old boy from one of the high schools in my area to speak directly to my heart. When I was asked to come and hang out at a 5th Quarter with a bunch of teenagers, I never once thought that I would be the one that the Father would choose to work within. Today, I am amazed at the things/people that the Father uses to speak truth, and to show you areas in your life that you may not be completely content with or surrendering completely to Him! The question I am trying to answer now, Why wasn't I listening before now? The Father has been there all along to guide me step-by-step.
Let me tell you about this fella. Travis is a one of a kind man. He could pass as the class clown, class stud, and all around just a popular guy. He is a memeber of Ashford United Methodist Church where my best friend Joe Steen serves as Minister to Students. Travis came to know the Lord 3 years ago at a lock-in. He's your "typical teenager" who never realized just how much he had going for him until he heard Joe teach from the scriptures above. Now, you can say that Travis speaks truth, knows scripture better than I (may I remind you I've take 4 Dr. Jumper classes and for OT and NT classes, so I have no excuse) and is determined too offer himself daily to Christ. This young fella has no greater desire but to follow Christ and faithfully work to bring others into the kingdom. We gathered in a room, about 50 or more teenagers, had a rockin good time jammin out with the band "Desperation", and had a wonderful time being taught from the scriptures by Travis.
I'm sorta lost for words. I want to explain to you in exact detail everything that the Father used this young man to share, but there's really no time for all of that.Everything he had to say hit me like a ton of bricks. I know for a fact that the words coming from Travis' mouth were not his own, but those of the One who knew just what I needed to hear. Travis did an amazing job, as nervous as he was. He offered the gift of salvation so openly, but yet allowed those listening (classmates and adults) to know that salvation does not come without suffering. Indeed it is a gift that can be freely recieved, but it not something you recieve and use as you would like. It's a gift that is for eternity. He asked the question, Why must suffer in order to become stronger in our faith, and responded , we must suffer for the sake of Christ. Why? Because Jesus first suffered for us and it is our responsibility to do our very best to live our lives as an offering to Him. Not just sometimes though, it's an ALL the time kinda ordeal. When Jesus was hanging on the cross being called unmentionable names, being spatt on and beat until blood began to pour from His sides, he not once complained. He took it like a man. A REAL MAN! He knew that his suffering would be so benefical for those who accepted the call to Salvation. He would suffer the pain and brutality of our sins so that we would never have to go through the things that he had. He suffered so that when we suffer now, we know that we don't have to suffer alone. He bore it all for us many years ago, and now he's here with us holding our hands and allowing us to rely on Him for help. I'm not real sure where I was going with this, but maybe it'll make sense to you. It made ALOT of sense to me, and was evidentally what I needed to hear to get my act together.

Mid-Terms
Well, Well, Well....I let everything slip between my fingers and now I will have to pay for it. I will spend the entire night working on studying for the 2 mid-terms I have to take tommorrow and a book review. I should have already done that stupid book review for LA 103, but today I was too busy watching Sex in the City, yesterday i was too sleepy. So tonight I will get to do it! It's either do it or fail the class. Which one would you choose? Alright, enough pity for me. I'm gone like a fat kid....

It's All Random.
Geeze, seems like everyone is falling in love these days. I'm not complaining, I think its absolutely fantastic.
Best Friend and her man Mr.Babyface are back together. I wasn't thrilled at first, but you know what I'm so ok with it now. I see just how happy she is and that makes me smile! There I said it, are you happy? As long as he treats her like the special gal that she is then we will all be just fine. I would definitely hate for my fist and his face to have a meeting because he's acting like a thug, pimp, player or whatever else he decides to be! I may be little, but I've learned enough karate from Wesley that I think I could karate kick someone if I had to. Wink, Wink! *Best Friend I know you are happier than ever and I love you!*
The other roomie Lins is so dang in love it's not even funny. Yesterday she and her beau celebrated their one month anniversary and it was so cute! Keith walked all the way from the Pig just to bring her flowers to her house. They were even her favorite, daisies!!! I wish you guys could just see how happy Lins really is. As I reflected back to 2002 when we all came in to BCF, I realize that we're headed in a whole new direction. Love does something to a person that is just sometimes overwhelming!
(Editors Note: Again, for those of you who continue to take my writings WAY too seriously MARRIAGE IS NOT AN OPTION AT THIS POINT for the two love birds....that is not what I am saying. YES, it may be in the future but at this point its not.l If it is being talked about its none of your dang business!)
I must say that I too am in love.More in love than I have ever been! I have the most wonderfulest hubby in the entire world. We just have the best time together. I fall more in love with Wesley every day! I often wonder how he can love someone as odd as me? My daddy says it takes a special person to love and put up with me!!!! I bet my Linds and Lins would agree! Friday he is going to bring Baylee (our puppy child) to school with him at 11:30 and the 3 of us are going to have a picnic by the lake! How romantic...huh?
On a side note from people being in love, I must say. I have the bestest friend in the world, but I honestly think that I have accumulated another best friend since August and I absolutely love it. Don't get me wrong NOBODY could ever replace "Best Friend" herself, but I think this other chick comes in just about as close! Me, Best Friend and Lins, are closer than ever before! It's great. You all know how I feel about Best Friend, if you don't, read the post I wrote several weeks ago about her, but Lins is just freakin great too! She rocks my face all the time and you know what else.....SHES SUPER DUPER SEXY! The three of us can talk about everything and anything and not feel judged in anyway. Together we can just be ourselves and have a heck of a good time. Sometimes we might have a little too much fun, but you know what the fun just continues to get more and more crazy, but thats how i like it. Umm. I like it like that...Oh wait that was a batchelorett party momement! Too provocative to write on here, right Best Friend! Thats what real friends do, love each other, accept each other as we are, and crap we just have freakin good times! We all love Days of Our Lives, which keeps our bond even stronger! We're all three completely opposite, there is Best Friend who is the priss pot, me...we'll I guess I'm the in between of Best Friend and Lins but I'm just old, and then there's Lins whos kinda punk/fun/easy going kinda gal! I'm the creame of the Oreo of the two.
Speaking of oreo's I wish I had some right now, I am starving for something sweet! How about some Sours gals? We'll I have rambled by blasted mouth enough tonight, so it's time for me to cut it off!
