It's really great to know that God's in control and I'm not.

After being pretty darn stressed and pretty darn tired with new changes and following through on commitments, it's been great to feel God's peace today as things fall oh so perfectly into place.

Yeah... I totally dropped my acting class to add a communications class... and I know it was from God because they were all closed. And yet there was a spot right there for me, right there after I checked for it because I felt prompted and compelled to do it.

He stirred my heart and whispered that I was only meant to stay in my acting class for a short time, enough time to befriend a girl that I will still see in two of my other classes.

Next weekend I'm helping out with 3 for the Son and there's one more thing in my life I've got to let go of before then... something I will struggle with the whole weekend... but I'm going to give this to God and ask Him to work through it, because His strength is made perfect in my weakness.

And now that I've sounded way more spiritual than I really feel...

You can leave some comments and tell me about your day. :)

                                                        yeah thats right.
                                                 it finally snowed in the boro.

i've had a hard time lately just letting God have control of my life. i want everything to be done my way and in my time and its really selfish.. God has definitely hit me with some issues that i can't get through without FULLY putting them on His shoulders. and its such a big relief finally realizing i can do that :]

" Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light." -Micah 7:8

DEFINITELY my verse right now.. now the only thing is to apply it. prayer would be much appreciated :]

i promise i will try to keep more updated lol <3 (pics from galinburg coming soon!)

IN HIM <3   kristin

Life is so amazing! I am SO blessed with everything that I have! I am blessed with my life, my amazing friends, my family, my church & youth group, but most of all, I am blessed with God's great mercy.

RETREAT TIME!!!!!!

life is good eternal life is sooooo much better

-milly

Hm... lets see. This week has been insane.

I had a HUGE fight with my dad on sunday. The biggest one ever. So that just started my week off crappy.

Monday was my 17th birthday!!! Wooo! I'm so glad I'm 17. I can now stay out until 12, drive with more than one person in my car, and see R rated movies. heh. Yeah, only one more year until 18...

Lypsync was soooo stressful. We practiced all of the time. Constantly. And every rehearsal was just a combinaton of randomness confusion, and fights. Heh, yeah.  But, we ended up with second place. Because the seniors always win, but we did good.

This week was homecoming week. But it was sooo short. Monday we didn't have school, tuesday I didn't come to school until around 10:30. Wednesday was a snow day. Woo! Thursday we had the lypsync competition in first and today we had a pep rally in first. So most teachers gave up on giving work. Oh yeah, the juniors won the pep rally for like the first time in ever.

And on wednesday night I got sick. I had this rediculous painful cough that is constant. It suuucks. And it makes my asthma go crazy, lol.

I'm going to the ADK formal with Carrie Clemmons. That will be fun.

Oh yeah, And this weekend is really busy. I have drama practice at 3:30 on Saturday and Sunday. I had to write at least two resolution papers for Model UN. I also have about 5486 assignments to make up that I just haven't had the time to do.  And, I have to go to green hills saturday night. To get some slippers, eat at the chesscake factory, and see brokeback mountain. Hahaha.

Oh Andrea...Her elbow looks....like something....

you cant change someone

but you can give them your thoughts

what is up everyone today has been a good day I thinkAaron wanted to get closer to me but I guess I just pushed him away I was going to take him home but his sister showed up so any who today is a good day

     Hey everyone, classes are going well, everything has been really really busy.. let's see what else is new.... Oh Chris bought me this leather jeacket that I really really wanted!!! HE ROCKS!!!... I'm gonna go get a picture. well.... I'll post it in a little bit.... I may go riding first, before it gets too dark... let's see what else... hmmm.... I'm starting to get hungry right now ;-)....

Talk to y'all later, leave me some comments!

blue screens of death were just the beginning. . .

then firefox decided i had to create some new profile in order to get online, so i lost all my quicklinks and fave places. . .

then MSN messanger decided to delete all my friends. . .

the madness needs to end

Yay! Friday! The pep rally today was awesome! and our lil group thing in Music Theory was fun! Tonite: High School the musical at Brady's! ^^ then off to work i go!

this Ayu song fits this day pretty well:

"It's a Beautiful Day
It's a Beautiful Day
You don't have to be afraid
What journey will you make
In your limited time?"
-Ayu (Beautiful Day)

Life has been goin pretty well. I have alot to be thankful for. In fact, I might have too much to be thankful for. Sometimes, I feel overly blessed. Then comes the fear of loosing some of the things that you have been blessed with, and the lifestyle you have built yourself around. I have really been praying that God will take me out of my comfort zone. Sometimes I get so caught up in my "group" of friends that I hardly know what's goin on in the outside world. Maybe I just need a reality check. Anyway, we lost our game last night to First United Methodist. Thanks to all the people that came out and supported us, even if u didn't get there till the 4th quarter. Like ben said in his update...True friends will always come and see u play sports, even if u are getting it handed to you. And in this case, that is pretty much what happened. I was tired and really really ticked off after the game, so I apologize if you were there and I didn't say anything to you or if I seemed like I was in a crappy mood. But anyways on the bright side of things...TODAY IS OUR HOMECOMING GAME!!!! Go Siegel! I would also like to challenge people not to go to the homecoming dance, but if u feel that u must, please keep your purity in mind. Remeber...."Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God" (Matthew 5:8). I heard this verse explained in a sermon by John Piper, and it has really stuck with me ever since. I hope it will do the same for you.

So with that being said...Keep it clean, but keep it Real!!!!

I love posting from school.

I'll give you a challenge.  Guess who currently is making a one hundred in pre-calculus.  You have five seconds.

one

two

three

four

five

OMGME! Yes, it sounds impossible, but apparently it is not.  I have gone from making straight D's the first semester to making a perfect grade!  Now, there's still four more weeks or so in the grading period, so nothing's set in stone.  But all the same.  I HAVE A FREAKIN' HUNDRED!!!

Now... if I could just raise me those Physics and Latin grades.

Goodness gracious me, this has got to be the longest and boring-est study hall ever. Ah well. Only 2.5 periods left, then freeeeeeedommmmm!

Movie tonight with Jen I., Sean, and somebody else.  Should be reasonably fun.

Welp, the sophomore punks are back from PT.  Ciao!

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.

In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved.

You'd like to your lover to think you are optimistic and happy.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.

Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets.

Your risk of cheating is 100%. You are not suited for a monogamous relationship.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as something you don't need. You just feel like flirting around and playing right now.

well life is throwing me some curve balls right now but with the help of my friends i shall be able to avoid totall disaster. i am going to the movies with ben, chelsea, and jordan. we are going to see the underworld: revolution. i hope that it is good. i found out some interesting things about someone, which i am hoping are false.  still a little bored. i hope that i did well on my math test. i am not going to the homecoming basketball game, which kills me because i love basketball. oh well. i have to leave.

What Does Your Name Mean?

Praise the Lord

Praise God in his sanctuary;
    praise him in his mighty heavens.
Praise him for his acts of power;
    praise him for his surpassing greatness.
Praise him with the sounding of the trumpets,
    praise him with the harp and lyre,
praise him with tambourine and dancing,
    praise him with the strings and flute,
praise him with the clash of cymbals,
    praise him with resounding cymblas.

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. (italics mine)

Praise the Lord.

~Psalm 150

Amen and amen!  I confess I had never read this psalm before, and last night when I did, I sat back in awe because God, the maker of the universe, desires praise from me.  He doesn't need praise from me; He doesn't make me praise Him.  He desires praise from me.  One day "every knee should bow...every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (Phil 2:10-11)," but until then, we have the choice to praise Him.  He doesn't force us into anything.  We have the option to either accept or reject Him.  How incredibly awesome is our God.

Here's wishing you a very happy weekend  

3 weeks till the big 1-8 !

Hi um add me cos i like everybody and want to talk when i shoodnt!

Happiness keeps you sweet,

Trials keep you strong,

Sorrows keep you human,

Failures keep you humble,

Success keeps you glowing,

But only God keeps you growing.

Wow...
It's a weird feeling to know that this "college thing" that those "older kids" always went to is only 6 months away...
Weird...
Right now I'm working on filling out my application for LEE, and the more I think about it the more excited I get. I get to go out on my own for the rest of my life. Scary, but cool. I get to room with Adam and hangwith JZ and Russdawg for the next few years (not to mention stacy,sandy) and randy if he comes!!!

School

Model UN

Nothing

If yall didn't know, I'm in a bible study called PB&J (Panera Bread and Jesus) And last night was so cleansing, I'm just amazed and thankful for my fellow sisters in Christ, they are there for me when I need them, and I know I can count on them.
Well here is the new and improved Megan for 2006

war is stupid

Justin told me that this is going to be the best year of my life. I sure hope he's right.

After losing several nights of sleep, I came clean to the one who has a firm grip on my heart. I told her how I felt in bursts broken by fear and sighing. It was such a relief to tell her everything.

Granted, we're not together. Several hundred miles separate us right now, and she's still figuring things out in her life. I can't tell if it's a blow-off or not, but at the very least, we shared that shaking moment over the airwaves and hopefully that will mean something.

I want her so bad, it hurts. But it hurts less now that I've told her everything.

This place sometimes makes me obsess. I need to learn to relax again; I don't need to talk to her every day to start something. I know she's not avoiding me. Why would she? Yet being so alone here, and having so much hope, I get paranoid from time to time.

Man, this one is serious. I mean it, from stem to stern, boots to cap, I'm waiting for this one.

I hope Justin's right.

"Written on the body is a secret code only visible in certain lights;
the accumulations of a lifetime gather there.  In places the palimpsest
is so heavily worked that the letters feel like braille.  I like to
keep my body rolled up away from prying eyes.  Never unfold too much,
tell the whole story..."


tonight i got in a really weird mood...i'm not really sure why.  it was
a reflective mood and i just felt like crying.  maybe it's because of
the start of school and everything changing (which i don't really react
well to...) i dunno.  maybe it's because i'm opening myself up too
much.  i'm so scared.  i hate ben for scarring me.  for leaving me with
thoughts of doubt about anything intimate.  i hate myself for putting
myself into that situation.  and i hate the fact that i can't just be
normal when it comes to these things.  i hope my inhibitions don't ruin
the great things that are happening to me.  why, God, why!?

I do believe I just heard turkies outside my house. Crazy I know. But it sure sounds like one or some are gobbling away outside my window. ahahahahahahaha. Hopefully its not the turkey call of death and before I know it I will be pecked at by crazy turkies....

.... or maybe this is just a little sign I am very stressed and need some rest

so have you ever had one of those days you just feel like you are the fattest person in the frickin world... well that was pretty much me. ): so im struggling with my "weight problems" which a lot of people say i don't have but im tellin you thats what i think!! grrr.... >:|

i got my dell dj ditty to work again!! :D yes it kinda stopped workin for a lil bit.. it was extremely dead to the world... ): but not anymore! :D

so dinos tonight. i was scorin some major points on that board ;) plus i had some sticky rice nad an egg roll and a half :) it was good stuff. see the guy that we go over to his house to play he is Lao so he always has all this oriental food and it frickin rocks. :D

all you mcdonals folk. i most likely might be transfring to a different one. Because my favorite manager became a stpre manager (she got her own store finally!) so im going to go over there. Even though it is a long way from home.. ill gladly drive that far to work with her an further my manager skills, etc.

i might be lookin for a second job.. i really need the extra money so that i can pay for alot of bills that need to be paid that my mom cant pay.. ): so... yeah.. i wont have any time at all to just hang out with sam or any of my friends... which pretty much sucks.. ): but hey...

i need a lot of things fxed... and paid for. so. :

im about to hit the sack. nice warm comfortable and soft.. (:

good night, sweet dreams, love you (:

Worse than the total agony of being in love??

I suppose I don't know what love is like-

Blissful and sweet

or

Full of suffering and pain

Which ever the case-
love is love and who can live a meaningful life without it?

I got the picture I was looking for. It's my cat, Kenobi, wearing Lederhosen and flying a kite. It's miraculous. :)

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church, he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.                              Colossians 1:15-19

Jesus desires you...You are precious in his sight...Even someone with that much supremacy will do ANYTHING to gain a second of your time. WOW....

"I baptize with water," John replied, "but among you stands one you do not know. He is the one who comes after me, the throngs of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie."                                             

 -John 1:26-27

i f*cking hate how certain people act as if they know what they're talking about... when they know nothing about it...
and then they all of the sudden become obsessed with it.
damn... i hate that crap.. seriously. i try to be me without anyone else copying me, but  no, thats impossible.

Im not sure what i want to write. Thus im writing a bunch of nothingness. Uhm..im goin to see Underworld Evolution tomorrow. I think its gonna be pretty damn good. All the vampires and lycans, AND Atreyu's new song is in the movie.

*Sigh* Im such a BAMF. :-P

- they are cool, no matter what they are doing

-can make u smile, when ur in the worst mood

-can make u smile, even when they are gone

-they save ur life ( even if u are on the back of a golf cart, or walking around for 9, lost in their neighborhood, and they have search teams looking for u. lol )

-u have nicknames for each other.  lol

-they make u grow, in whatever u are doing

-they whoop ur butt if u are doing something that is not good for u

-they accept u, no matter how dirty u are

-they forgive u

-u actually love each other

-they are really ur brothers and sisters. even if u werent born from the same mamma

-they come and watch u play sports, even if u are getting u r getting it handed to u.

-they laugh with u at 3 in the morning, well untill somebody gets tired.

-they have the most freaking annoying snore in the world, ( sorry alex, even though God blessed u with that, its very annoying )

ill try to put more on later, but now its time for me to get some sleep. night. 

Wow...so all I have to say is that God works in such amazing ways!!! Last night I just broke down b/c things have just gotten to stressful and everything just came up last night!! I was just having to pray about it all and know what God will talk care of it all..And then today around noon I got a text message and it was said "hey girl...you have been on my mind lately and I just wanted to know if there was anything that you wanted me to pray about for you?" How amazing is it that God told one of my best friends that i was having a hard time!! It was soooo amazing!! Things today were better!!
I kinda feel like someone is trying to slowly come back into my life and that the Devil is trying to tell me to put my heart back out there so that he can just take it and hurt it again!! But I know that this is not the right guy for me b/c of past experiences with him. I just have to keep praying about it and know that I have awesome friends there for me and my Boy survival BOX!! LOL!! Thanks Dena!! But yeah...
Well I am almost down with the first week of classes...I didn't know if I was going to like how my classes are set up and some of the classes that I am taking but after dropping one I feel like I have a great schedule!! I really like my Sociology class that I have with Katie and now I have History with Jessi..Which is gonna be pretty awesome!! I am pretty psyched about that one!! Only bad part is that I am going to have to compete with her for the best grade!! But ohh well!! She will help me out in the class..I HOPE!! LOL!!
Well I am gonna go! My 8 class was cancelled but I still hae my 9 and 10 oclock ones!! So I will try and write more later!!

I really don't understand how grown people in a professional environment can be so petty and immature.  Are some people so bored that workplace drama is the only way to spice up their lives? I have heard that it is like this anywhere you work. They don't pay me enough.  You know that's right!  I just keep my mouth shut.  Imagine that! 

its time to start over...i fell.. now i got to get back up and finish this race.

see you next time <3

so i learned something new today... i just bought this book Captivating... Am bugged me about reading... she's in love w/ it... and has given me some great quotes that really just... blessed me... so i finally bought it.

anyways... i was reading it... and i breifly said something about how girls connect their self-worth with the relationships they are in... and the quality of those relationships... it said something like "doubt it? just mess w/ a woman's husband, children, family, or friends" and it suddenly made me realize how true that is... i'm soo pretective of my relationships. (i mean... i said something about it in my interests a week or so ago.)... i can't stand it when people dawg the ones i love most. and then it made me realize that this is a reason why so many girls are so wounded... b/c maybe someone they loved and trusted broke that trust... or maybe they don't have many true relationships... and in both cases (and many others) they're wracking their brains and searching their hearts trying to figure out what they did wrong. i think that's one reason why we as girls find it so easy to put up walls... we try so hard to be strong and shut people out so they can't really love us... and we won't risk being hurt. the sad thing is that there's one relationship that should be held above all in our self-worth... one that allows all the other relationships to fall into place... the one relationship that we tend to neglect... our relationship w/ God. we tend to forget that He's the only One that can complete us the way that we're looking for... everyone that we love or will love on this is earth is an imperfect being... like us they will make mistakes... they may even fail us a time or two... but if we're sticking close to God... and guarding that relationship above all... we'll live through any pain that we may feel... and we'll come out better for it. i don't know about yours... but my heart holds many scars of the past... but in God's eyes... it's the most beautiful thing to behold... He sees it trash and all... yet He still wants it for His own. what an awesome thought! ~Hope

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

correction... today makes two days! LOL. yea-ah!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ouch.... so... me and dave broke up... but its the happiest break up ive ever had... if that makes since... he doesnt know whats going to happen to him as far as the marines... and figures if theres a future for us then it'll be here when he gets back and trust me... i'll be righ here waiting.!... i cant say i dont agree w/ him tho b/c i do... i miss him so much already... pray for me and him... i just cant wait to hold him in my arms...! i love u guys!!
~tRISH

so, as i'm sure you can tell, i'm in kind of a random sorta mood. currently watching the office...it's aight i guess...but i'm gonna watch ER while i exercise. (yes, i do exercise...but mostly just recently). tonight's play practice was awful...i think maybe just being in front of Neil make me nervous, and i don't know why. but i really can't dance. i'm too stiff, not graceful, and kinda retarded. and it doesn't help that i'm already kinda nervous. it makes me pretty insecure actually. plus, i didn't know one of my songs. but i do my lines, dang it. anyways. w/e. last night at church was pretty awesome. Chris talked quite frankly and unbiased-ly about homosexuality. i was really amazed at how well done it was. also, prayer time was pretty awesome. man, i can't wait for formal...i think maybe jared is more excited than i am. i just hope my dad doesn't get all "you don't need all that" which translates to "you don't need to spend so much money..."....w/e. i'm kinda sick as a mug, but not contagious-sick, so i can't miss school. not that i'd wanna. missing a day of algebra is like missing 2 years. nayways. i think maybe i kinda like someone. but i've told ya'll this. but, as i said, i really shouldn't like this person quite so much. and i really don't believe i like them as much as i think i do. i think it's just stimulus-response, and just old worn out feelings. but whatever. it'll all work out eventually i guess. i'd just really like a b-friend. but i guess either there's something wrong with me (and no i'm not looking for compliments) ...or there's something wrong with them. maybe i'm picky. who cares. at least i don't settle. oh well. i need to quit thinkin bout it. much love to you all. ---cari

He's H.O.T, She's H.O.T.: What to Look For in the Opposite Sex

**The Three Things Everyone in this Room is Looking For:

1. Acceptance- The desire of every person's heart is to have secure, meaningful, enduring relationships that are based on trust and mutual acceptance.

2. Approval- Having success and worth in the eyes of others.

- The place where this begins is at home particularly with your father.  For better or for worse, your father's ability to express unconditional approval of you is fundamental well being.

- If your home life has left you with an unmet need, you MAY find yourself expressing bitterness or rebellion... OR you may be shopping around for another source of approval.

*You must find these before you seek them from a guy/girl.*

~There are too many people who try to find their identity, security, and self worth in being "hooked up" with someone.

Adam was "very good" by himself.  What was not good that he was alone.

Can you see yourself as very good without someone in your life?

Before God says, "I have *insert person's name* for you," He says, "I have ME for you."

Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires if your heart.  Psalm 37:4

Seek HIM first.

So, Abby (my future UM friend) has talked me into writing a horn quartet (no. 1) for the young composer night @ SCMI this year. I'm so proud of my 12 measures so far that I've written during 6th period and put on finale. It sounds really cool...random, but very fun. I think by the time school starts next week, I'll have alteast 1 1/2 movements of it. Yay!

Today at school Ruth and I played duets during first period, it made me happy that I got to spend time doing stuff with her like we did last year. It would be fun to do non-horn stuff with her. (OMG! Did I just utter that I want to do something unrelated to horn?!)

So tomorrow I get to spend my day with around 200 6th grade children for the symposium my school is doing. I might have to do the masterclass for the 3 horn players, hehe, they'll be so cute. If I don't, I'll kill if they have a trumpet player do it. They really need to hear the tonal concepts of the horn so they know what they should sound like. I know I'll probably be playing with them some, while running around with everyone else. Calvin Smith is going to come with his brass quintet and hang out, I'll try to scrung up some duets so we can play like we did at Governor's School.

I learned today that Erin likes to kick the door of my practice room when she makes an error. Haha! She's so random...

I ate dinner w/ AJ and his friends today. They're so much fun. And all of them are prospective UM students for next year...I know of 3(?) who are forsure going there. It's going to be so much fun.

CSI calls....

I'm glad you are still simmering. Have fun drinking your life away. Good luck not getting pregnant.

Well.......this is my first entry on my new Phusebox..... where to begin..........well.....school sucks, most definetly, I cant wait until next year........Senior year!!!  Maybe life will be easier on me then, I have definetly had my share of drama this year.  Anyways.......have to go............try and update later.

Thanks everyone for the reassurance on the last post.  It means incredible amounts to me.  Fortunately, I have some good news to balance out the bad:

ANDY FORD CALLED!!  I'M A WEIRD SISTER, I'M A WEIRD SISTER, I'M A WEIRD SISTER!!!!!!!!!!  *Jubilation*  This rocks out.  I get to be Earthy-Provocative for three straight months.  Yessssssssss.  I wonder who was placed in the other roles.  Here's hoping that the girls I auditioned with are Sisters, too, because that would just rock out so incredibly hard.

I'm worried, though.  If they put Capricious Asexual Ariel in a leaf-bra and skirt, imagine what Earthy-Provocative Weird Sisters are going to be costumed in.  Strips of fake fur a la Raquel Welch Back In The Day??  It's something best not thought of right now, after dinner.    I can't even escape strips-o'-fur under the cloak of minor-dom anymore!  Crap....  *Starts doing sit-ups furiously*

Round about the cauldron go,
In the poison entrail throw:
Toad that under the cold stone
Days and nights has thirty-one.
Sweltered venom, sleeping got,
Boil thou first in the charmed pot!

Double, double, toil and trouble,
Fire burn and cauldron bubble!

"Get a fucking clue"

don't expect me to forget that one either.

hope your life is going well.

Why is life so hard?

so i have a crush on a boy who isn't my boyfriend?

I just have to say that we worship an AMAZING GOD...

Well my life has taken some twists and turns lately, and I dont know even where to start. But I am going to try...

1. I had an amazing time snowboarding for the first time. I really love that sport and think that I am going to try to do it as often as possible.

2. My Birthday is next thursday and to celebrate.....drum roll please.....I am going to go with one of my best friends to the CD Release Show for Dave Barnes at New City Cafe...and guess who is opening for him....Andy Davis... I am so excited...

3. My Birthday is next Thursday....

4. I am applying to go to New York City for two weeks during the summer for TLJ summer experience. I really feel God calling me to go to NYC and do His work. I pray that all goes well.

5. In less than 3 months I will be overseas in Trinadad with my church doing mission work. I am so excited. It will be my first trip outside of the US. I am really excited about what God will be doing there.

6. I am planning to study abroad in Paris, for three week in June and I will recieve French 211 and 212, which are both of my required language credits for UT. I think that it will be a great experience for me.

7. I had my Calc. book and one of my notebooks stolen....So...DONT leave anything unattended even for a half of second....OK?

8. I got my first parking ticket at UT, yesterday....Parking Stinks here...word from the wise...Oh Well

9. UT is playing unbeaten florida saturday and I am painting up forthe game with Orange Nation. Look for me on TV.....

10. I am running out of things to type, so if you really wanna know what is going on just call or write....

Love in Him,

So I was watching MTV yesterday, just to chill and enjoy my snow day. Well this ganster on My Own said Fo shizzle Mo nizzle. I was like "Snap! I say that!" So yah, I am officially ganster, I just need a ganster name.

Have you ever felt...

held back
put in a box
limited
shut in
sheltered...

by a person you expected to support you?

just a thought.
share yours.

It occured to me that if I continue on my current path, I am going to graduate college and go onto life having never had a 'real' boyfriend.  Yes, I've had little dabbles at relationships, but none where all the boyfriend/girlfriend protocol were followed.  Not only is this sad, but it scares me.  So far I have managed to either elude the eye of every elligible guy, attract weird ones, or come up with excuses so that whoever might have been pursuing me didn't have a chance.  I don't know what my deal is.  I mean, wake up Elizabeth, if you are holding out for the perfect guy, you are going to be waiting a looooong time (like till you get to heaven).  Ok, ok, fine.  So what can I do about it?  I don't know, honestly.  *Sigh*  I know one thing though, I am going to try to not use the excuse of "I don't have the time" anymore.  Ok, so I'm still busy, but not as much as usual, and how many people do I know that are as crazy or crazier than I am who are still in a relationship?  Yeah, so, that excuse doesn't work anymore.  I'm still going to draw the line on weirdos because I'm not that desperate.  :)  But who am I kidding?  I can be weird...  There just has to be someone out there who can appreciate me with all my little quirks, can laugh with me and my sense of humor, and share my beliefs.  I'm not trying to short change God.  I know that if there is someone for me, we will find each other at the right time.  But can't I at least get a little practice while I'm waiting?  ;-)

ever just felt a need for a personal cleansing?

just wanted to take everything out and start over?

to feel clean?

i'm taking everything off my walls:

posters, pictures, nic-nacs.

the room is feeling more and more empty.

but i think i'll like it.

today was A-OKAY for the most part (bout time my days didn't suck)
i know, i know... "shut up, abby you've complained enough"..

today:
the sky was BEAUTIFULLL today (it was lots windy, though)
i showed Cari my bling in first period
i do believe my new freshman is my Science partner, Sydney.
she's tres smart. HONORS BOI AS A FRESHIE!? kudos, babe.
i'm going to make Sydney a See-Dee because she's cool. heh.
i almost starved to death third period
then i got some funyuns and hid them under my purse during art
how can something that smells like feet taste so darn good??
that's the question of the day, my friends.
made a video of a trash-talking hamburger with Ashley F during lunch.
got to drive home <33
and i didn't screw up and kill anyone in the process!!
that deserves an award.

yesterday:
it snowed (duh)
i slept in until 11-ish
watched viva la bam re-runs and gilmore girls all day
stayed in my PJs until about... 5 when i got ready for church
went to Belle Aire again.
it was alot of fun
i almost know more people there than i do at my own church o_O?

currently listening to:
The King of Carrot Flowers by The Neutral Milk Hotel

well.. i've almost typed my little fingers off.
better stop while i'm ahead

abbyDee

When you were young you were the king of carrot
flowers and how you built a tower tumbling thru the
trees in holy rattlesnakes that fell all around your
feet and your mom would stick a fork right into
daddys shoulder and your dad would throw the
garbage all across the floor as we would lay and
learn what each others bodies were for and this is
the room one afternoon I knew I could love you and
from above you how I sank into your soul into that
secret place where noone dares to go and your
mom would drink until she was no longer speaking
and dad would dream about the different ways to
die each one a little more than he could dare to try

that's how long i'm going without this.

find a way to survive. please.

yeah me too.

snow....spring weather

umm....

'cause i feel like punching some people in the face.
[don't worry, if you are reading this, you are probably not one of them]

the end.
<3

yea hey kids.. long time no post

so much has happened and it has been amazing. January has brought about so much.

yay for being happy and good feelings and good prom dresses =)

I made a mistake.
A big mistake.
Something that will hurt someone -- a very good friend.
Oh, my God, I feel so awful.
I should have done something before, should have stopped it before it went any farther.
But.... I didn't.  I thought I could make it work.
Quite evidently, I both am and was wrong.
This is the closest to full disclosure I'll ever get online.

Suffice to say, Kelly's day has been far from ideal.  She has contemplated changing schools, changing her appearance to the point of being unrecognizable, even changing her citizenship on a national level (i.e. running away to France).  All will screw her over in the long term.

I'm not complaining.  They're my actions and I will take responsibility for them.  I have no other recourse, and any alternatives would fail miserably in the long run.  I'm merely venting my frustrations with -- who else -- myself, before the storm begins.

Wish me luck.  Pray for my grandfather, who is completely unrelated to the above paragraphs.  Jim Jeskey.  I would be very appreciative.

I want a boyfriend

but there isn't anyone.. =(

life isnt going that great for me right now

but I still have my girls Danielle & Keri there for me

yeahh thats us like freeshman year! :)

but i love you!

<3mb

so im in a funk...i just havnt gotten excited about anything lately...so what??? im super ready to connect with ppl this semester though and i think i will...if only bc i learned so much last semester about how you have to be assertive in any relationship to make it work...so thats it...just thought id let ppl in on a il somn somn goin on w me...catch ya

so that's pretty cool
too bad that will never happen again...

I'm not sick anymore!!! I hate being sick, but I seem to catch everything that goes around. Oh Well...
This
is a 2 day school week for me and that makes me happy. It also makes me
smile to hear Rebecca going on and on about how she already hates school... I'VE ALWAYS HATED SCHOOL!!! She's just being a baby.
The other day Josh (my big bro) called me and asked me to make him a picture of a baby, riding a wolf, through a forest, with a spear in his hand. Apparently that's how the new baby makes Liz (his wife) feel sometimes...
A little weird to me, but I made the picture anyways and here's what I got:

I have a nickle for whoever can guess/remember my favorite word

i'm ready to go back to school... i'm even ready for the work. i know i know... i sounds really crazy... but it's true. i've been out of my mind since i've been home b/c i haven't known what to do... and i've felt way out of place... i mean... there are people here that i truely love... but this town has nothing for me anymore. i think God's showing me that so i won't look back and grown... and totally ache over this place. God's got things for me elsewhere. although... i have to say... Sarah's man Jon gave me some great advice... i don't know if he meant to or not lol... but it's true "today is a day you will only live once... so make the most of it" (that was a paraphrase more or less. lol)... but yeah... i had never thought of it that way. today holds so many oppertunities that tomorrow may not (no matter where i am). so it's up to me to do my best to live those out. anyways... i'll prolly write again tomorrow. ~Hope

Our Fine Arts theme this year is One Life One Chance. I am doing a short sermon on this theme ,but I only have a few scriptures and no message. I need a lot of prayer ......that God will give me a message to go with the scriptures ....and I need a lot of prayer about other things too. I am thinking about using James 4: 14 as the main scripture. I have other scriptures, but I don't know how to use them yet, or if I am going to use them at all.   These scriptures are:

Luke 12: 13-21

Ephesians 4: 1-6

Romans 12:2

James 4: 14 and 17

The short sermon needs to be about 5 minutes long, so I need God to show me how He wants me to to this.

   Re-building my band is turning out to be really easy. Maybe I am speaking too soon, but everyone I have talked to has been really siked about playing for me. It is hard to find good people who aren't too busy though. The really good ones can't commit to playing with you because they are too busy. Hopefully Pablo will work out! He is so talented and professional. There is a percussionist that I asked to play, but he broke his foot. Stephen?...he went to MTSU. Blonde dude. Kinda short, I think.

   The funny thing is that I am stressing out just thinking about what our first practice might be like! I had a dream the other night that 3 snakes bit me 5 times on the same arm. Does that mean anything?.....

Im a really big anime fan, my taste for anime goes in all directions.

Im going to post pictures of most of them.

well well well. i finally got a ticket for speeding. i was doing 38 in a 15. but luckily since i didn't have ne thing on my record i got lucky and he said i was doing 25 in a 15 so it won't go on my record. but that means i still get to go to court. WITH my mother. YAY! not.

this class is such a bore! i havent used this in forever... but oh well. my birthday is SUnday! just wanted to say hey. talk to everyone later.

So, the week is coming to a close.  I am learning that working 2 jobs isn't that bad unless you realized that you don't get off one job until 11pm and you have to leave for the second job at 145 am to get there on time.  But all things considered, I should eventually start seeing some money come in.  Who knows, maybe I can move up in one and get out of the other.  Well, that is all I got for now.

Man, things are getting better for me.  I am now completely over Trish.  I have found a potential girlfriend in Molly.  She is pretty much the most awesome girl I have ever met.  We share so much in common.  We talked for two hours last night after I got off of work.  The greatest thing about her is that she has a car.  So now I can actually see her instead of sneaking off at school or to the library.  I can actually go to the movies with her.  I am not going to, in any way, screw this up.  I have learned from the mistakes of my past relationships.  Life is going good.  I think God found a new plaything.  I am now going to post exclusively on this site.  I am done with xanga and it's stupid masses.  Jeez, Molly is gorgeous.

so i was in the fitness center this morning and tv #3 caught my eye...

"A Houston pastor is putting a new spin on Apple Computer Inc.'s popular iPods, telling his Baptist congregation that the simple gadgets contain a religious lesson: Life can also be simple.

'The reason the outside of the iPod is so simple to use and so beautiful to look at is because of the way they designed the inside of the iPod,' Metropolitan Baptist Church Pastor Sal Sberna told his congregation Sunday during his second of four sermons on iPod Theology.

'All you do on the outside is push the little button, drive the wheel and pick what usefulness you want out of your iPod,' he said. 'And so when Jesus talks to us about simplification, it must start on the inside.'"

anyhow - fox did a big ole interview with him this morning.  very interesting.  i love a good analogy!  check out the Metropolitan Baptist Church website!  you can download his sermons!

I am so very excited about the upcoming events in my life..... I can't believe that Mel is gonna be married in a few weeks.  We are gonna CELEBRATE!  I love it.  Party with the Queens on the 25th!!!!! Do you feel the excitement?  And BABY BABY have I got a secret!?!?  NITE NITE

Why does it hurt soo much to love someone and ten times worse when you let them go? Is it supposed to b that way or you ever met someone who will change the way you feel about love forever?

I totally made that burger!!!  and that's dip on the plate in case you were wondering!  it was delicious and we are all totally awesome!!  check out the other pictures!

" "Where are all the real men?" is regular fare for talk shows and new books.  You asked them to be women, I want to say.  The result is a gender confusion never experienced at such a wide level in the history of the world.  How can a man know he is one when his highest aim is minding his manners?"

"There is nothing so inspiring to a man as a beautiful woman.  She'll make you want to charge the castle, slay the giant, leap across parapets.  Or maybe, hit a home run."

"A man wants to be the hero to the beauty. . . . You see, it's not just that a man needs a battle to fight; he needs someone to fight for. . . . The battle itself is never enough; a man yearns for romance.  It's not enough to be a hero; it's that he is a hero to someone in particular,  to the woman he loves.  Adam was given the wind and the sea, the horse and the hawk, but as God himself said, things were just not right until there was Eve.
Yes, there is something passionate in the heart of every man."

i'm hungry right now. i need some food. but i'll get it in the morning. i got an 8 o'clock class, i hate it. tomorow is my long day too. crap.

i cant decide if i want to be on the rowing team or not. i would love too, but it's going to be expensive. thats alright though i guess, it's worth it. i'll have to think about it. we'll see how it goes. shannon said i should. and that would mean i would see her like every weekend for like 2 months. that would be tight.

i'm listening to kyles ipod right now. i got me a mp3 player the other night. it should arrive soon. very soon. the books i bought off amazon havent come in yet. they normally dont take this long.

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiihateschool.

Shame I have to go back there tomorrow.

Free sturff at Espresso Joe's today.  How's that, you ask?  Just have the counter guy love you so much that he'll make you free coffee and smoothies.  I had a "pink mocha" [some sort of coffee, white chocolate, and rasperry flavor] and a peach mango smoothie.

Mmmm.  I love my Matt.  He makes good coffee.

Sho.

(That's how Sean Connery would say "so."  You know, because he has a Scottish accent... Shut up.)

Snow day.  Everyone says there was no snow, but I think that if they look deep down inside themselves, they'll see that the snow is there in their hearts.

Ooh!  Forgot.  One other thing about Espresso Joe's.  Cute nerdy college guy heard me talking about Latin.  Got all ready to hit on me and everything, but I screwed it up.  He said, "So are you just taking the class, or are you majoring in Latin?"  I told him I was actually taking Latin at Oakland.  He got all embarassed and said, "Wow, I feel stupid."  We got into an ongoing conversation about Latin and school and computer junk and several times over the next hour and a half he said, "I really thought you went to MTSU," and "Wow, I feel really stupid."

What I THOUGHT but did not say was [imagine it in a sing-songy voice]:  You were gonna hit on me.  You were gonna hit on me!

It was fun.  His name is Joey.

Now... if only guys who could legally date me would think I was hot [or even God forbid, like the fact that I'm a nerd or something] and hit on me.

Stoopid heads.

hey hooch nuggets!! i hope everyone had a GREAT day outta school i know i didnt... i had to si @ home and listen to ALL 5 of my little bros and sisters screamin all day!! SCHOOL TOMORROW YAY!... oh and will u be my valentine?
~tRISH

me an mama havin fun @ Rose's!

Hey guys! Well, I have had an absolutely amazing weekend and I had a great night! This weekend I went with Believer's Chapel to Gatlinburg...we stayed in this beautiful cabin in the mountains...oh man...everything around me reminded me of just how big God is. He is beautiful in every single way and He has created is a reminder of it all. We talked about being an authentic Christian this week and Im really hoping that I can do exactly that...I dont want to ever be fake or do anything to hurt growth of God's Kingdom...all I want to do is glorify my Lord...let people see that Im a Christain and that God is most important to me. I'm starting to learn how to love the person God has made me...this weekend really helped me with that. I had a great time getting to know everyone better and just hanging out..it was one of the best weekends ever!

Some really fun memories:

Singing in the van with the girls, the heart shaped bath tub, the freaky freaky person in the window, FOOSEBALL TOURNAMENT, the indian tribal chant with the girls, being woken up by Kris at 8 because of snow, sleep talking, sleeping with my eyes open, spending time with this really cool guy, spending time with my best friends, ahhhh sooo much gum!!, Lisa and Tyler fighting and it ending with broken headphones, the cup game, millions of Apples to Apples games, Swann and me talking Chinese to eachother, oh and so many more...hahaha man great times **sorry I forgot this one Megan..."knock, knock..who's there? frying pan..."

So tonight church was amazing...I was so focused during worship and God really had a hold of my heart...I just cant describe that feeling. He is amazing.

The passage tonight at church...

"Blessed is he
       whose transgressions are forgiven,
       whose sins are covered.

Blessed is the man
       whose sin the Lord does not count against him
       and in whose spirit is no deceit.

When I kept silent,
       my bones wasted away
       through my groaning all day long.

For day and night
       your hand was heavy upon me;
       my strength was sapped
       as in the heat of summer. 

Then I acknowledged my sin to you
       and did not cover up my iniquity.
       I said, "I will confess
       my transgressions to the Lord "—
       and you forgave
       the guilt of my sin." -Psalm 32: 1-5

Guys, one of the worst feelings is when you have done something and you are feeling burdened by it. Isn't awesome to know that we have a God who cares and a God who will take all of that away and forgive you even when we are not worthy? Man, we are so blessed...

Have a great week you guys! Just be real. God bless.

Andrea

There are pics on here from the trip..

wellwellwell.

NO SCHOOL FOR MONA TODAY.

snow day...without the snow. brilliant =)

my birthday is in 13 days. jan31. i'm excited. i think 17 is a good age. maybe i'll have a bday party. because i like parties. or just cause i like people. either one.

i got a photobucket site thing up.

http://photobucket.com/albums/b93/barefeet27/





and also there's this freakin hilarious video from SNL.



http://www.youtube.com/player.swf?video_id=vEWLwz6JRNE&l=357&s=B4B.



if you don't do anything else, at least go watch the video. it will make you smiiiiile...

After a week of being in class, it's safe to say I like this semester more than I do last semester. I know what I'm doing, I don't look as much like a freshman, and my classes are suited more towards my liking.

Journalism/Electronic Media 275 - absolutely love the class. Can't wait to start work in the TV station (more about that at the bottom)

Psychology - Eh, it's interesting and it makes you think. I understood the first chapter and that's a good sign.

Astronomy - Unbelieveably boring and it lasts for 2 hours. Better than geology though.

Math - Math is math. Nothing more, nothing less.

English - Better than 101, still kind of bored with it though.

For JEM we have to go work at the TV station or radio station 2 hours a week until the end of the semester. I've been waiting for this ever since August. We were given the opportunity to be anchors on the live TV newscast so in pursuit of my dream (ESPN, Sportscenter, giggity)...I auditioned. I don't know how it all came out yet but I will tell you this: 30 girls, 4 guys, and out of the freshmen I talked to I was the only one with on camera experience and to top all of that off there were more juniors and seniors than freshman (possibly 6 or 7 freshmen auditioned).

I know I'm only a freshman but still..I want this more than anything right now. I've still got time to learn and time to be on TV but just to know that I'm good enough to compete with someone a few years older and who has more experience is what I want right now. 

I'm nervous.

That's all for now.
Birthday in a few weeks! Be ready! Ha..right..

Well, first two days of school went pretty good.  I changed around some classes and now I'm pretty happy with my schedule.  My classes don't look TOO hard this semester.  I'm excited to be doing discipleship 101 which will help me prepare for Poland and once again be taking sewing which will teach me how to make purses.  That's fun.  I know Kim can't wait until I make her some purses.  Right Kim????  I picked out some fun blue fabric today to make the purse out of.  We had a fun time at Wal-Mart.  Lauren and I ate dinner with Colby tonight at ADUC.  I think I like eating dinner here better.  Much better.  And I just asked Lauren and she agrees so we will probably make dinner here more often.  That should be D-E-lightful.  Woohoo.  Well, I think I will be going to bed early tonight for the first time in forever.  So I will talk to ya'll later!

hey, im back. life has been prettty good. my nightmares are almost gone and those that i have i am able to control. i owe it all to jamie. thanx girl.  i've been talking to ben alot. tried to get in touch with sean but he was busy. greg contacted me. first contact this year. he cracked first. yeah, i win the bet. i am still trying to sort through the emotions that i feel for this one guy. i think that he likes me, at least that is what my friends are telling me. but who knows maybe this guy is just playing me for a fool.  only time will tell. that means that i have to be patient. i hate being patient. oh well, i will try to write more later.

lylas

yuppers no school as you all know

tomorrow is school though but ah only a 3 day week not bad!

life is good eternal life is better

I sure hope so...I need to get my GPA up...so that I can keep my scholarships....Im already stressed out and its only the 2nd day....I have a feeling this semester is going to involve me being stressed out all the time....and when I get stressed out I dont want to do anything....whats the point of all these classes Im taking NONE other than they are part of my general requirements which means there is no way around them, trust me if there was a way I would figure it out....so Im ready for a crappy semester..hope yall have a better one than me...Im going to go start on homework for Friday bc  I have to work til 9 2morrow night and I will want to go to bed  as soon as I get home...this has been really really long sorry bout that If you have read all this thanks..if not oh well I probalby wounldnt have made it this far either....have a great week <>
