This weekend, however, I intended to exit at Devonshire instead of Nordoff like usual, because Devonshire is closer to the dorms.
But I forgot.

When I exited at Nordoff, I saw an older lady with a sign, “Need Coffee. Please Help”.

I had seen her last week and driven past, wondering if I should do something.
I didn’t do anything and honestly forgot about her until I was heading down the off ramp again.
This time, I felt compelled.

I pulled into the AM PM just off the exit and went inside. Coffee I knew I would get, but I wanted to give her something to eat, as well. Something filling, something relatively healthy, something with plenty of calories and fat; the lady looked skin and bones.

I had planned on donuts, because what else is there at a gas station besides chips? I glanced around, though, and saw trail mix.
Perfect.

I didn’t have any cash (seriously, who carries cash anymore?), and AM PM charges that 45 cent fee, the bastards, but I slide my debit card at the register anyway and walked out the door.

I felt nervous as I walked the hundred or so yards to the freeway off ramp. Would she appreciate it, would she be rude and preferred cash instead, what would I say as I hand her the Styrofoam cup?

I start to cross the street to the side she’s standing on; the little green walking man was lit so I had no wait. Crossing, I see her glance at me, look back up the exit, glance at me again. I could see the question: why is a white girl walking toward the wrong side of the 405?

I step on the curb and say ineloquently, “Here you go.” My brilliant speech I pondered over as I purchased and walked over.

The lady’s mouth dropped in a gasp; she’s missing her front teeth. How hard must her life have been? “Thank you…” she says. “God bless you.”

“And this,” I hand her the trail mix. Hard to believe I had a college age reading level before leaving grade school.

“Oh I love these,” she tells me. “Thank you. God bless.”

“I wanted to find something filling.”

“God bless you.” She does appreciate. Nothing to worry about, Rosie.

I smile; I can’t help it. “Well, Jesus loves you.”

She looks at me and says with sincerity, “He does, because He sent me someone like you.”

I don’t think I’ve been so proud of myself in a long, long time.

I thank God for using me to help this lady. I hope and pray that He’ll see fit to use me again to serve His purpose.

One could argue I was simply raised to be a kind and generous person, but I know better. I know the nudge I was given to do what I did. I know God’s hand was on me.

What I hope more, though, is that someone saw what I did. Not because I want them to think highly of me. No, because I want them to be inspired to do something to help another themselves.

And pass it on.

And on.

And on.

Because Jesus loves everyone.

And you know what, the 45 cent debit fee was worth it.

It’s embarrassing, it’s humiliating, it’s pathetic and I hate myself for how I’ve acted and felt.

Combined with some worrying health issues that make me anemic and feel like I’ve been PMSing for the past two months

And now some stressful family issues

I’ve been in tears far too much lately.

I listen to Air1 and subscribe to their Verse of the Day. This is why I support Air1; God works through them.

Daily Verse Jan 8th, 2009: John 16:33 – “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

Daily Verse Jan 9th, 2009: 2 Corinthians 4:17 – For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever.

Daily Verse Jan 10th, 2009: Philippians 4:6 – Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

Daily Verse Jan 11th, 2009: 1 Peter 5:7 – Give all your cares and worries to God, for He cares about you.

Yet God has been looking over me, as indirectly as it may be. God watches over us all and knows exactly what we’re going through and why and He will never burden us too heavily. He knows that we are able to cope with all the challenges He presents us, and gives us the encouragement we need.

I hope and pray that I can remember that God believes in me, that He believes I’m strong enough for the trials and adversities ahead of me, that He sees and knows the greater picture.

Please pray for me, my friends. Pray that I’ll have the strength and courage and wisdom to triumph, that I can bear these burdens I have, that I can become the person God wants me to be.

Pray for my parents, that my mom has strength and my dad has understanding.

With the semester ending
And studying for finals
And working on papers
And content notebooks
And all the other stress

I haven’t thought of weighing myself

One thing you all should know before I continue

If I’m working on something that holds my attention really well, or stressing from whatever
And I start to feel hungry
I’ll think, “Okay, after this, I’ll get some food”
And two hours later I’ll wonder why my stomach is growling
And think the same thing

Last I checked I was about 152 pounds
I feel just as strong and muscular and tone as before Finals Stress Time
So if anything, I was expecting to stay the same or gain a pound or two

So, after all this stress of the end of the semester and life and being trapped in the city (=/)
I weighed myself before work this morning

And I was 146.5 pounds

Holy Crap

I checked again
146 pounds

And again
And a fourth time

Three out of four times I was 146 pounds

The lowest I’ve ever weighed

Needless to say, I was pretty stoked

I like that him becoming President Elect for the United States is such an inspiring thing for so many millions of people across the US and the world.

I like that he shows that anyone can grow up to become anything.

I do not, however, like his policies and how liberal he is.

I am hoping he will make more moderate decisions and will be wise enough to listen to every perspective and weigh every option before making his decisions.

Thus far, I like how he has decided to include Republicans in his cabinet to have other opinions and standpoints than his and his Democratic party.

I also hope the media is just as critical of Obama as they were of Bush. To be fair, they should be.

I do not like that the whole government is Democratically controlled. Granted, they are more moderate Democrats, but they still have a Democratic agenda, which I do not entirely agree with.

Proud Member, 'cause I love them

My other blog, God’s Way, was about how God guides the day, or longer, for certain events to happen.

This blog is to show how God reassures us He is watching us and encourages us in life.

A couple weeks ago I was driving home from work, listening to Air1 like always when their little spot about Habitats for Humanities, talking about how they are helping build homes for people who are basically homeless, building the houses with the people who will be living in them.

So while listening, I was thinking how I want to do that someday. How I want to go and build houses that will become someone’s home, be one of the people to make it possible for a family to live in a healthy, safe environment that they will call their own.

It’s perfect for me! I love to build and work with my hands, I love to help people. I love to travel and take pictures and I could travel to different regions with Habitats for Humanities. This combines everything! How perfect!

That night I was up late watching TV in the living room when my dad came home from work. For some reason he had a bunch of fortune cookies and gave me one. I open the package, break the cookie and eat half before reading the fortune, like always. I read the little scrap of paper and it says, You will be involved in many humanitarian projects.

Honest, that’s what it said, just a short seven hours after I was thinking about joining a group when I’m done with school and established in my career.

Many people, atheists especially, would chalk that up to coincidence. I, however, am not a fool (Psalm 14:1, 53:1) and believe in a higher being. While I do believe in coincidence, there are some things I believe have stretched too far to be merely coincidence. I believe wholeheartedly that God guides events to his purpose (please see “God’s Way”).

I believe with all my mind, body and spirit that God was encouraging me to pursue my Habitats for Humanities dream, that He was reassuring me that I can do it, that it’s in my future. More than that, I know God is telling me I will do this if I truly want.

Because that’s the kind of God He is.

]]> ~greenevans http://greenevans.deviantart.com/journal/19245497/ http://greenevans.deviantart.com/journal/19245497/ Mon, 07 Jul 2008 00:17:56 PDT Jonathan and I were driving from the theater after watching the 10pm showing of Get Smart (awesome movie, btw) a couple weeks ago (I've been trying to post this since then), and I commented that, even tho it was late, he saved some money by eating bbq with my parents at home instead of going out.

Jonathan said, “Not really because you’re going to want Taco Bell, huh?”

“No, I’m good,” I replied, thinking Jonathan wanted Taco Bell and was about to say so when he continued, “Is it wrong I want Taco Bell?”

Lol

So we stop at Taco Bell and I can’t eat a Crunchwrap Supreme while driving, so we sat in the parking lot to eat. While eating, a woman in a Tommy’s uniform walked over and kinda hovered near the passenger side of the car.

Jonathan rolled down the window and she apologized for interrupting and asked if we had jumper cables. Poor lady’s battery was dead.

I unfortunately did not have jumper cables in my car.

I did, however, have my Handy Dandy Mini Jumpstart Battery Pack Thing my dad gave me for just such emergencies. I do believe he mostly intended if for me, tho…

And so, Jonathan and I (mostly Jonathan) helped jumpstart her car and made sure she got on her way just fine.

The funny thing is, if we hadn’t eaten dinner at my house with my parents and watched the Olympic trials for women’s gymnastics we wouldn’t have seen the 9:50 showing of Get Smart. If I didn’t have a ‘tradition’ of staying to the end credits, we wouldn’t have left the theater near midnight, and wouldn’t have stopped for Second Dinner at Taco Bell. If I hadn’t ordered a Crunchwrap Supreme (well, anything, really) we wouldn’t have been sitting in the parking lot. If my father hadn’t been, well, my father and slightly paranoid about his daughters, I would not have had my Handy Dandy Mini Jumpstart Battery Pack Thing and would not have been able to help that lady.

It’s amazing how God guides us to certain things so we are in the places we need to be at the right time. God’s hand guided the events of this night to lead me and Jonathan to the Taco Bell parking lot on Ave P and 10th West at midnight tonight and I’m thankful for that. I love doing things to help people, I love doing nice things. It makes me feel awesome about myself and that I’m worthy of God’s love.

The lady offered to pay Jonathan and me something. We refused, of course, but I hope that as a form of repayment to us, she does a good deed for someone else. And that person for another, and so on. If only everyone was nicer to one another, the world would be a much friendlier, safer place. Alas, it cannot be so. But maybe we can make a difference.

Right Things #1

Right Things #2

It’s the little things that mean the most, the affect the most.

At work today, the same bastard who have been targeting the Punchbowl parking lot, made their crime spree extra personal by breaking into my car and stealing my camera bag with my camera and two lenses in it.

They made off with almost $1400 worth of camera gear, and some really awesome hummingbird pictures I had taken, after breaking one of my passenger windows.

I forgot the stupid bag was in the car.

My stupid fault.

So, I spent most of the day crying and or depressed.

And I now HATE these two low lives with an intensity I did not know I was capable of.

And I want to hurt them...

They WILL pay... the disrespectful, ignorant, pig fucking, low life, sons of bitches

My Bestest Friend Jonathan [link] worked some genius magic 'cause he's awesome and mananged to recover most of my stuff

Has been quite a stressful pain tho...

Things are relatively fixed now, so I am happy

Just in time for me to write a paper for school =/

Alas, such is life



EDIT:

So, even tho my laptop has been fixed, it has not fully recovered.

*sigh*

It kept shutting itself down while I was using it.

So, it was decided I need a new one.

But I am a poor, poor college student, who must pay for such things as food and gas and car payments.

BUT, I have a very awesome best friend [link] who has a bigger credit line than me and offered to buy me a new laptop.

Strictly if I promised to pay him back in a timely manner and such. Which I or course did.

Eventually...

So I have a new Acer Extensa 5420, with 2 G RAM and 160 G hard drive and that's all I know. Oh, and it has this way cool and nice built in web cam that will amuse and entertain me to no end

So, I have the most awesome and best best friend in the world, whom I now owe $700

But I have a new working laptop

For now, life is good

So the flash on my camera stopped working. It says "Err 099" whenever I try to use it. My one year warranty expires at the end of this month so I sent it in to Canon to fix now. For free. So no camera for me for awhile I’m going through withdrawal. After three weeks, seriously, three weeks of crappy sunsets, there are two incredibly beautiful ones in a row… Just my luck =/

Ah, well, I should have it in a week.

Student Life
At school, I get to play all day. Honestly. Thursday morning in Non Traditional Sports we did a bunch of obstacles and activities then talked about the challenges for us and what challenges children might face. For the first activity, each group was given a list of ten things we had to complete then get a piece of equipment after each task. The tasks were like 30 jumping jacks, running around the basketball court twice, walk backward around the court holding hands, scoot around the court, each player make a basket in the basketball hoop, and some other stuff. Then we had to take the equipment and create a design she gave us, without looking at the illustration. I pretty much stood 20 feet from my group with the picture and yelled out how to build it.

In Movement Forms of Sport, Dance and Exercise, we played Ultimate Frisbee (we’re in the sport part right now). And I totally kick ass. My team won 10-9 or 10-8, but we totally rock. I was the designated "kick off" person, and my arm is really sore now. I don’t do that Frisbee throwing motion much. For 5 weeks I get to play Ultimate Frisbee and talk about play and kinesiology and physical education and physical activity. Then for five weeks I have to dance (=/), then we go in the weight room and talk about exercise and work out I guess.

I think I’m going to make a sticker: "My Major Kicks Your Major". I think saying 'ass' might be offensive, even though it totally does.

I think I’m going to minor in Recreation Tourism Management, and because I’m not sure, I’m taking one of the minor classes, Event Planning. It has a much longer name, but it’s Event Planning. That’s my only real class and there’s no test. We meet on Tuesday and the teacher lectures a bit, and then he gives us Thursday off to work on that week’s lab assignment. All of which have been really easy. I’ll have to write a couple short papers but that’s nothing. The hardest thing will probably be planning the banquet for RTM students, faculty and alumni in April. I don’t think I’ll go to the banquet because of work, or I’ll show up late, but I’ll help plan the thing. As long as I don’t have to go ask people for money since our budget is 0.

I have an online Weather class (which I’m only taking so I’ll be a full-time student), but we have 3 quizzes and that’s it. My friend is a genius (as am I, but a lazy one, haha ), and I’m going to ask him to help me. It should basically be a cake class, bird class, Mickey course, etc.

And I have a Strength Training Class. I show up and do something, I get an A. I really like working out, but I won’t really do it on my own. I need a class or someone to go with me. So this class will be helpful. We did a fitness test last week based off our weight. You weigh yourself, figure out the percentage for certain exercises (body weight times 45% for bench press and lat pull down, 18% for bicep curl, 10% for abdominals, etc.), then you figure out the weight you’re going to do for those exercises. Like my lat pull down and bench press was 68.4 lbs; I can either round up to 70 or down to 65. Anyway, I was superior (preformed 21 plus repetitions) in every exercise except bicep curl, where I was good. Dang… Either way, I’m in Excellent Physical Fitness

General Life
I’ve been watching The Biggest Loser with my mom and it makes me want to work out and eat healthy. I should probably start easing off the junk food and such now, so I don’t have to go cold turkey in a few years.

I have something to prove now, too, but I’m not going to go into it. Basically I’m pissed off about something and have to prove this person wrong.

I’m sanding and repainting some chairs for my friend’s parents. Her mom offered me $25 a chair; I told her she didn’t have to pay me since I really enjoy carpentry and stuff, but she insisted. Then, while I was working on them last night, her dad said he’d give me another $25 a chair, for sanding all of all of them (backs, legs, seats), and painting and finishing/varnishing them. It’s a lot of work. And Sanding isn’t as easy as most people think. So I’ve put about 6 hours into sanding over two days, and I’m just going to start... ]]> ~greenevans http://greenevans.deviantart.com/journal/16466613/ http://greenevans.deviantart.com/journal/16466613/ Fri, 18 Jan 2008 21:29:51 PST Alastair and Natalia, so I'm combining both into one tag journal thing.

Read this also

1. Post these rules.
2. Each tagged person should post 8 facts of themselves.
3. Tagged people should write a journal\blog about these facts.
4. In the end tag and name 8 people.
5. Go to their dA pages and comment saying that they are tagged

FACTS:

1) I now heart art. Before I met my friend Jonnie, I appreciated it, but now I love it and am exploring my artistic side more

2) I've learned to knit and am now going to conquer crocheting.

3) I love the classic Disney movies, and now love the new Disney/Pixar movies and often break out in Disney song

4) I have an iPod I fill with college podcast lectures and audiobooks and very little music. My iPod recently died, however, and I am extremely sad

5) I return my shopping cart to the Cart Return at stores, and also return other carts that have been left. It irks the hell outta me that so few people return their carts when the store has so many damn Cart Returns. Tonight I returned 3 carts beside my own in the span of 45 seconds

6) I have an extensive list of pets I plan to own when I get my own house. I am constantly adding to the list and forgetting what animals I have on it. Some of the animals are a Red-Tail Boa, Rose-Haired Tarantula, Rosey Boa (haha ), California Myotis, a Yorkie (a dog, how simple ), a cute small parrot of a species I haven't decided on yet, and many others

7) My job is basically my life, but I love it so it's okay. It will be the same when I finish school and start my career. With my career as an Adapted Physical Educator I will most likely work 2-3 hours a day, outside planning, 4 or 5 days a week and make about $50k a year. I'm excited.

8) The desert is truly my home. Even if I leave it, I will miss it and frequently visit it, and use my parents as an excuse

I tag everyone and no one hahaha

For commissions, please note or email me to discuss what you're interested in and prices.

For prints, please note or email me with the title and or link for the picture. I do not want to print and sell through Deviant Art, so what I do is print it through Walmart or Costco's photo dept and have them ship it directly to the buyer's address, but only in the US. For other countries, I will personally ship the image. Or, if the buyer wishes, I will email a high-resolution copy of the images, or ship a CD for several images.

All for a fair and reasonable price.

Thank you,

Why are males so confusing? Little boys, they're easy. All they want to do is play or eat. Big boys...wtf is going on in their head?

And another thing. Why the hell do only men old enough to be my father or grandfather check me out? Why the hell can't a guy my age flirt with me? Is there something wrong with me?

Look for a special deviation later when I get some time. I'm getting swamped with school... I really should be finishing a paper right now that's due today. Then one due Monday, and then Thursday, and a project.

My school does not like me right now...

Tonight was another blazing sunset (as Andy puts it), which I missed half of because I was in the house. BUT, I did drive out quickly to where it was less developed and take about 70 pictures.

So, as a result, many of my next deviations after tonight will be sunsets. And possibly a few wedding shots, since I’m going to one this weekend (and I get to see Jeffery, yay!).

And I lost the camera plate for my tripod, at school, I believe so I will never see it again… I’m debating on whether it’ll be easier to buy a new tripod or replace the plate. Perhaps I’ll just buy two, the second to replace my dad’s now incomplete tripod…

Now I’m off to bed, because I’m tired, it’s late, and I have to be up and showering in 6 hours.

Goodnight, all! Sleep well and wake.

1) I could very well be a genius, but I never study. I still pass all my classes though, ergo, I may be a genius

2) I’m incredibly insecure about myself

3) I live in a travel trailer on my parent’s property and love it because it’s like my own little place. With the extreme weather of the Mojave Desert, though, I freeze in the winter and can’t stay in there past 10 in the spring/summer/early fall, 11 if I’m lucky, and that’s only because there’s some tall cottonwoods on the east side that shade me in the morning.

4) I have a cat named Shadow on the River Tear, his whole name, and I very much like it

5) I’m an athletic klutz and more a hazard to myself sober than drunk. 'Tis very true and been proven on numerous occasions

6) I’ve fallen off a roof and been virtually unharmed

7) I’m the shyest person you’ll ever meet at first, then I am very much outgoing once I feel comfortable

8) I just recently discovered my breast size is 36C, not 36B, and I’m very happy about the discovery. It was a frustrating process to find out, though, and I posted a bulletin about the experience on my myspace

I believe I'm supposed to tag people now... So I tag James-T-Anthony, Mizzy-Chan, and whoever else wants to do this

haha

I'm not too excited but I am in a way. I want to be done and with my degree, but that won't be for a while and this is a stepping stone to that goal. Pity there's so many stepping stones to that point...

School may effect my photo time and creativity, too. Damn...

My two bestest friends got me an Annual Pass to Disneyland!! How totally sweet is that?! And they put it in a hot cocoa packet so it was even sweeter! lol

So yeah, now my mom and I are going to Charlie Brown's for lunch (none of you but Jonathan know what that is, so yeah, just know to be jealous because it's the most awesome place to eat and visit in the World!). Yum!

2) How much dirt, sweat and grim one t-shirt can hold. What's sad is I surpassed it...
3) I can survive off very little sustenance AND stay in a good mood
4) I need to start hiking with really heavy backpacks
5) I will NEVER take food for granted again
6) I will NEVER take indoor plumbing for granted again
7) I fully appreciate what my ancestors went through and all the advancement our society now has and will try to never take them for granted again

I also documented the entire trip As you can see from my gallery

In other news...

Why, you ask? Simple. Because I will be on my survival trip. With my knife, two small sandwich bags of trail mix, my wits and my insanity, I will brave and overcome every obstacle nature will throw at me for three days. And I will be victorious.

So, if you need me, I will be unobtainable. You must somehow carry on without me until Sunday, when I will once again join civilization. I will have my cell phone in my car, and will check and respond to any messages left for me, signal provided. Unless I don’t want to, then I won’t And, of course, there's messages here and on myspace.

Wish me luck. Though I believe I’ll be safer than any of you in the city.

Until Sunday…

We're not sure what kind he/she is yet; he/she is still really young, only a couple weeks. We have narrowed it down to two species: Long Eared Owl or Short Eared Owl. Lol. There's still a slim chance it might be a Great Horned Owl, tho, but I have my money on Long Eared.

We got him/her because somebody found him/her on the ground under a tree, so he/she was either blown out of the nest in high winds, kicked out by a parent or sibling, accidently or purposely, or walked out by mistake. We were afraid he/she would have internal injuries and not make it, but they're eating healthy, walking around a lot and preening his/her feathers.

I'll be posting pictures of the baby soon. Soon as I resize them. I'm going to try and take some every day I'm up at work to show the growth. They grow so freakishly fast! 0.0

Oh! He's adorable!

And I finally got high-speed internet at my house so I will be able to upload stuff more often, not just when I'm at school.

So yeah, just excited.

My sister looks out the little window in our front door and yells, "Omg, Bill's in the back seat of a cop car." We go outside (all of us, because my brother's in the back of a cop car and it‘s bound to be a laugh on why) and the officer's like, "How you doing, sir?" to my dad and my dad's all, "I don't know, you tell us."

"I've seen a lot of interesting things our here in Littlerock but I'll tell you, I've never seen a 14 year old boy running around at midnight in chonnies and barefoot."

Turns out, my brother decided to run to his ex-girlfriend's house because he's "in love with her". lol, how cute. He wasn't under arrest, so we had to take him back (cop didn't want him either. five bucks says he was a smart ass). The officer was okay about it, gave him some advice: "Next time, wear some shoes."

So I had a nice laugh before bed. Good way to get ready for my first day of school. ]]> ~greenevans
