Cam: Hey, what are you making?
Mallory: Fry bread.
Cam: Like the kind Victor's mom made?
I love that both my siblings have seen Smoke Signals.

Second week
Sometimes, I'm struck by how often I relearn the same things over and over.
A recent thing I have been re-learning is how God's goodness is unchanging. It's not dependent on our circumstances.
The past couple of weeks have been trying. However, it's for a moment. He is forever.
Also, this fortnight shown me how easy it is to focus on the negative. In light of what I have learned here are some of the good parts of these weeks.

- I'm learning how to prioritize when it comes to homework which has helped me keep on top of the massive amount of homework I have.
- Randomly, a guy came up to me last week and told me I looked nice. He also asked if I was in Theater because I was reading Goethe's Faust. Silly, but it was a high light of my day.
- I'm learning how to play Badminton! A huge step for someone who has very little experience with sports.
- My quiet times with God have been refreshing. Today's was very much that way. I am memorizing Psalm 13. It's been great to commit more scripture to memory.
- Right now I am listening to Florence and the Machines while wearing my favorite sweatshirt.

A conversation between me and an elderly man I've become friends with from riding the bus together.
Man: Are you and your sister married to the same fella?
Me: No, sir! I'm not even married.
Man: Don't lie to me, girl. I see a ring on your finger.
Me: Oh. It's not a wedding ring. It says "courage".
Man: How's that?
Me: COURAGE.
Man: Why in the world would it say that?
Me: It helps me remember a verse from the Bible I like; Joshua 1:9
Man: Well, go ahead and recite it for me.
Me: Have I not commanded you-
Man: Uh huh.
Me: Be strong and courageous
Man: How's that?
Me. Be STRONG and COURAGEOUS. Do not be frightened and do not be dismayed for the Lord your God is with you where ever you go.
Man: Oh, yes. Good heavens, that is true.
