Claire's Corner: Final Final
http://clairescornercz.blogspot.com/2015/05/final-final.html
Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. Friday, May 15, 2015. I finished my last final of the semester! Fun fact: Today was the last day that the scent of burgers came wafting into my room first thing in the morning. Every Thursday is Big Burger Thursday in the cafeteria. Since my room is near the vents to the down to the kitchen, I inevitably smell burgers every single Thursday morning. Not my favorite thing to wake up to, but it's been reality for the three semesters I've lived in this room. With my last exam, ...

Claire's Corner: For Mom
http://clairescornercz.blogspot.com/2015/05/for-mom.html
Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. Sunday, May 10, 2015. There's only one hour left (at least here in Chicago! On this special day - Mother's Day. Mom, I'm still celebrating you, even from across the ocean! I so wish I could be there to give you the biggest hug and bake you lemon bars, or oatmeal cookies, or cinnamon donuts - because I know they're all your favorites. But the best thing I can do is thank you. Hvar, Croatia, 2011. Thanks for stopping by! Your comments make my day! My name is Claire. If for so...

Claire's Corner: The Gospel: Illustrated
http://clairescornercz.blogspot.com/2015/05/truth-illustrated.html
Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. Friday, May 1, 2015. Since our presentation needed creative elements, one of those elements was my role in the group: illustrating and presenting the "10 Gospel truths". I hope you find this helpful, or even just encouraging. This is the Good News. This is who we are and what we believe as Christians. This is the true story of God, of His character and of His mercy. This is a story of brokenness and sin that is transformed to joy and a restored relationship ...God created y...

Claire's Corner: Moving Day
http://clairescornercz.blogspot.com/2015/05/moving-day.html
Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. Saturday, May 16, 2015. Moving out and packing is inevitably hectic and exhausting, and potentially somewhat humorous too. Packing up was a bit more confusing because of our lack of a vehicle. Long story short, a super awesome friend in the city saved the day (which was an answer to prayer! August 9, 2016 at 7:41 PM. Praise the Lord for people with cars who are willing to help on moving day. Im so glad I was with you and Kayla that day! Thanks for stopping by! Rest, Not Yet.

Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. When my older brother, Caleb, became seriously ill and had extreme stomach pain, we knew something was wrong. Scroll down for favorite blog links). You can maybe picture how much our diet would have had to change to fit Caleb's needs. Mom had a tough time in the beginning even knowing what to make for dinner! Butthat didn't stop her! She stepped into a whole new world of cooking! My mom still does all the cooking! Simply Sugar and Gluten-free.

Claire's Corner: Flowers and Fog
http://clairescornercz.blogspot.com/2015/05/flowers-and-fog.html
Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. Tuesday, May 5, 2015. May is my favorite month of the year. It's not hard to understand why. This city has its spring charms; I just have to know where to look! I'm getting soooo cloooose to finishing this semester! It's truly an honor to get to have homework like teaching the Bible, studying the relationship of human development to ministry, or relating virtue and philosophy to theology. It's still challenging and rigorous, but so rich. I want to soak it in. Rest, Not Yet.

Claire's Corner: May 2015
http://clairescornercz.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. Friday, May 29, 2015. Last year at this time, we were two days away from a very important wedding in Colorado - Caleb and Haley's! When I came back to Chicago after the wedding, I had less than a week to hang out with Tyler and Lara before heading up to Gull Lake. It was the perfect amount of time to be "in between". I wouldn't have even wanted it to be longer, since the city didn't really feel like home yet after a only year of college behind me. No But He did, and I am so...

Claire's Corner: Rest, Not Yet
http://clairescornercz.blogspot.com/2015/05/rest-not-yet.html
Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. Wednesday, May 13, 2015. Rest, Not Yet. These are full, rich, but exhausting days. I am growing weary - studying for finals, packing, saying goodbyes, thinking ahead. Yet there is such beauty to this time as well - it's hard to decide how to feel, honestly. It's in these times that we can keep pressing on. The time will come for rest. That time is coming soon. Speaking of stories, Sam and I had our last "roommate date", as they're often called here. We split a giant. I grew...

Claire's Corner: Two Sides of the Coin
http://clairescornercz.blogspot.com/2015/05/two-sides-of-coin.html
Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. Saturday, May 9, 2015. Two Sides of the Coin. That's what it always feels like and how I often describe to my friends what it's like to have my heart in two places - Czech and the States. I just can't win. Though it's a beautiful thing too at times. Josiah Venture is having their annual May conference. Yes, my heart longs to be there. Yet life is here too. I even got to meet two older ladies while demoing - a mom (who was 87! Thanks for stopping by! My name is Claire. I gre...

Claire's Corner: April 2015
http://clairescornercz.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Gluten, lactose, coconut-free. Thursday, April 30, 2015. Group presentations are always daunting at the beginning. It seems impossible to come together and form concepts and ideas that are cohesive and unified. It's especially hard when you don't know the group members yet, so you don't know each person's strengths. It's these kinds of little parts of college that I do want to remember. Group projects and practicing in a classroom tonight while the sun set and made the skyline glow. It helps us learn.
