home

    
I know that as a Christian this world isn't my home.  I'm made for the kingdom God has for me.  But I feel like I have a home in Charlotte, which I miss very very much.  I wish I had the same longing for my eternal home that I have for my earthly home. 

Mom Dad CJ Jill - see you on the 14th!

Chriser - miss you! hope all is well in the springs.

Kath - chances are i'll see you a few times before you even read this... :]

Pikes Peak

Yesterday, myself and one of the other fellows hikes Pikes Peak. It's a 26 miles round trip with a 7,510 ft elevation gain (the summit is at 14,110). We started out at 5am, hiked for an hour and a half in the dark, eventually summitting at 11am (we were actually the first people to summit that day). The total trip took us 11 hours and 7 minutes, which is pretty good considering if you look up Barr Trail online it's an estimated 16 hours round trip. Anyways, now i'm really sore so I'm just going to sit around and read all day - which I need to do regardless.

Here are some pics:

News:

Hey guys.

So, big week in the life of Annie:

Took my first test of college on Monday, and my second on Thursday.  I think they went alright, but all my friends are getting back 60's and 70's or lower for tests... so I'm not really confident. 

I also dropped my History of Christian Tradition class, which as it turns out I did not need for any purpose besides filling elective hours.  LAME! So I'm done with that one.

I got my first job, besides babysitting and the few weeks I spent at Mario's.  I'm working at Starbucks in Rams starting Monday. (I go in to do paperwork Monday and start training probably Tuesday.)

Dawn is here until tomorrow night.  By here I mean in Chapel Hill not my room.  Kelsey, Ashley Underwood, Caitlin Covington, and I all had dinner with her on Franklin, and she's going to come by and see my room tomorrow.

I have a paper due and a marine science test a week from today (Friday Oct 10).

Well, can't really think of anything else at the moment... Love & Miss you!
