Thursday's are my favorite day because I only have one class. This morning I woke up and ran 45 minutes, ate breakfast, and now I am about to go to my one class of the day. Later this afternoon I might go and visit Heather (my friend with the 5 children, 2 of them the new little twin boys), work on homework outside, and then I have community group with my church. Community Groups are just small groups from church that meet bi-weekly to discuss, encourage, and pray together.
Last night I went to a program called Breaking the Beauty Box. Rosie Molinary, author of "Hijas Americans" (American Daughters) was the speaker. She is a Puerto Rican lady who writes and speaks on growing up Latina and dealing with body image. She talked about media influences and how we as the future generation can begin to change the way our society views beauty. She was a facinating speaker and I especially liked her because she and her husband just adopted a littly boy from Ethopia....he was precious!
I am also reading Passion and Purity by Elizabeth Elliott and enjoying it very much. (Remember my New Year's Resolution was to read more for fun!)
