about me


hello there.  i'm rosala 
pronounced: rose uh luh




it isn't that hard, my name, but for some reason people just don't get it. quick story: i was so shy when i was little that i never corrected my 3rd grade teacher, so she mispronounced my name the whole year. awkward.
my parents invented my name... so they say (i googled my name... and i guess there is a city in finland called rosala. i don't know if it's pronounced the same way though) 

anyways the story goes like this,

they wanted "rose" + an ending 
but
my dad had a rosaleah grandmother
and 
my mom had a rosalyn grandmother.
so 
they came up with rosala

the end
: )

+i'm a girl who has a heart for jesus christ
he is my savior, redeemer and friend.

+i became a world traveler at two weeks old when my family moved to south korea. yes, i'm an army brat. so i've seen a bit of the world... at least more than some. 

+i like to conduct random baking/cooking experiments.

+I have a thing for 
 hot tea & kids & elephants & coffee & babies & africa

+i love memories + pictures. I have tons of pictures of friends, family, and events all over my walls and school binders. 

 +i have 4 brothers & a sister- all younger than myself.



the middles (we go on coffee dates)

and the littles (they'll be my coffee dates soon enough).


There's the whole family (minus baby Lilia)!

It is all in the Lord's hands. He is in control, and His will is not mine. 
I'm in back in North Dakota (after a year of clinicals in Phoenix) and loving life.
