Great Days

So, this week has been wonderful so far! Yesterday was just a really good day and I thought I'd write about it.
Tuesday night I had just fallen asleep at around 12:30 when I suddenly woke up. My phone was charging by my head and it made a weird noise, my microwave beeped, and my fan turned off..we had lost power. It was only off for about a minute when it turned on again. A few minutes later the same thing happened again. And it turned back on within a few seconds. I texted my friend Kalon and asked if her power had gone out too, which it had. I kept waking up random times throughout the night and the power was still on. But I woke up at around 6:30 and it was off again. This time it stayed off for awhile and I don't know how long it had been off. I checked my phone and I had gotten a text from a girl in my math class asking if our power was going off. So I responded and fell back asleep. I woke up again around 7:30 and got another text from her saying that all classes were cancelled until noon. I only had 2 classes anyways but one at 11 and one at 12 so I was thankful I could sleep in a little longer. I got up and even took the time to curl my hair!
Walking to class it was so perfect out. The sun was shining and the temperature was just right. When I got to class people were saying that there had been an electrical fire somewhere during the night after the power had gone out. So some people had to leave their dorms and go sleep in another dorm, just on the floor or wherever. Needless to say I was very thankful that didn't happen to me!
After lunch Emily and I decided we were going to sit outside for awhile and enjoy the perfect weather! We ended up going in because we were getting so warm. The sun really made the day so much better. Also the trees are starting to change colors really fast and leaves are falling off, it is beautiful out.
At night there was a huge bonfire as a part of the homecoming events. So of course we went to that! The fire was huge!! And it was just something fun to do for awhile, a lot of people went! When we came back Emily and I watched Nashville together.
All in all it was a great day. I know personally I couldn't have asked for a better day. Lots of laughter and good moods! It was just the kind of day I needed.

Every week I write down a quote or Bible verse on my marker board, so I thought I'd share the verse this week:
"Let your hope make you glad. Be patient in time of trouble and never stop praying." Romans 12:12 (CEV)
