So the LOVELY Chatham Square internet went down tonight. we'd get it for a second. . .and then it'd be gone again. it was quite sad.

but then there was the good news. . .

I moved apartments today. I now live in 16203, and the girls are quite cool. i think the next 23 days will be quite calm!

Also, as soon as I managed to move. . .the roomie(samantha) that was giving me the most problems. . .self-terminated. . .oh well, at least i'm not alone now!

so yea, the internet works now. . .and it's funny, my disney section is bare . . . except for KoKo and I. . .b/c I guess we're the only crazy ones up this late to realize that it suddenly works. . .

I was about to get desperate. . .I had pulled out the phone cord and was planning on dialing up!

what can i say, that's just how life goes sometimes :)

I just realized that i change my hair almost every season. geez. well. here it is. go look.

I am so incredibly exhasuted that i would just like to spend the next week catching up on my sleep but of course i know that isn't going to happen(unless i sleep during class...but that wouldn't be good because we have exams.)I took the ACT today and when it was over i don't think i had a single intelligent thought for at least an hour.I was so tired and drained. But at least it's over for now.It just seems like one thing after another seems to come along and i get even more stressed out that i already am.And on top of that i think i might be getting sick. Oh what fun...ONE MORE WEEK!!!!

           I keep thinking of how much I miss her. I miss talking to her. If ever I needed advice about anything from cooking, to schooling, to guys, she was who I went to. Instead of going and having 'girl talk' with other girls I would go adn sit on her bed, and she knew that I  wanted to talk. We would sit in her room and fold laundry, or clean, or patch clothing, and talk. Now I find myself on days when I am here by myself, I find myself sitting in on her bed. Sometimes when I find myself wishing she had gotten better, I realize how selfish that is. Someone gave us an ornament this year that said;

I love you all dearly,
Now don't shed a tear,
I'm spending my Christmas
With Jesus this year.

        I know she is happy. And, yet still, everything that went on in Washington still stays clear and heavy in my mind. She is wiht Christ, well and rejoicing. But the images of things past cling. It seems sometimes, that only those who are older, desire for their time to be with Christ, to hasten in it's coming, but I sometimes so desire that time to be now. Chirst is the only one to whom you can draw close, without the fear of losing that one. I want to draw closer to Him. May I always remember that He should be my focus. 

This tale begins when my sisters and I come home from A Charlie Brown Christmas, which I must say was awesome to say the least, and we come into our currently empty dark house. I go to the front doorway to turn on the the outside Christmas lights, and behind me I hear something fall. My sisters and I quickly search the downstairs only to conclude that the noise came from upstairs. Then one of us hears voices from upstairs. I go quicky to the silverware drawer and pull out the biggest scariest knife I can find. My sisters follow pulling out a smaller knife and a pair of scissors. I start to climb the stairs and they refuse to follow. So I am exploring the dark upstairs with this huge knife. I find nothing and come downstairs. Then Savannah hears a noise and refuses to go upstairs. None the less, we sat around with knifes, until Tori checked upstairs, carrying scissors, and there was nothing. Anyways, I tend to create crazy elaborate fears in my head and then search my house with a huge knife.

Also, could scissors really stab a man?

Last night SAC had a movie night where we rented out theaters to watch a movie at midnight, and I saw The Chronicles of Narnia which I advise everyone to see!  It is really good! Anyway, this is what we were doing as we stood in line outside. 

 

Here we are cuddled under my blanket.  That's me, Ashley, Ryan in the brown coat, and Jordan in the back.

Jordan and Ryan

Ashley and Ashley... lol She's so much fun!!

Well, that's about all... I've been really busy and with finals this week, I knew I wouldn't get another chance to put pics on here, so I thought I'd do it now.  Hope you enjoyed them! 

In Christ,
Ashley

I had the most amazing nite last nite... first we went and saw Charile Brown Christmas at Siegel which Jackie was phenominal in as Peppermint Patty! ^^ and  then i begged my parents for like an hour to let me go w/ my peeps to see Chronicles of Narnia and they finally let me... but my dad said i couldn't come home after 11... so i spent the nite @ Jackie's ^^ and we ended up see RENT cuz Narnia was sold out (my 3rd time!) and we saw RICHARD!!!!! ^^ and his man friend... lol i miss him so much! anywayz, Jackie and i baked muffins and watched some of the Little Shop of Horrors movie and then we went to sleep... got up @ like 12 and made French toast (the wrong way, Jackie's way. ok i'm not closed minded. i kno there are more ways to make it than my way lol) and we finished the movie which is really good

~ Nevermind............I don't have much to say plus I don't really want to... I have one of those "don't care" attitudes at the moment... It's one of those days I guess... ~

well, these past few days have been absolutely crazy. some ups and downs, but thats what happens.

thursday i did some hardcore studying. i stayed up till 4:30 am workin studying for my math and spanish test, it was crazy. spanish stunk, math wasnt too bad.

last night was ok, i missed out on some stuff that we had made plans for. i cant say i understand what happened with the second half of it, but i can understand the first half of the night. oh well. i dont know.

today wasnt too bad. we killed alot of time by going to the mall, that was fun. we spent an hour in borders, that place is awesome. i had never been there before.

abhinav and i went on a wild goose chase tonight. i took him on it though. we went to the old city. drove around and found where we were going and then parked. we were supposed to pay 5 bucks, but we were like "screw that". didnt find what i wanted so came back to the strip, didnt find it there. once again we didnt pay for parking righ there. it was crazy.

i need to read tonight, but will i do it? haha, ya, i will.

Congrats to all my horn babes on making Jr. High Mid-state! I think that Siegel's horn section represented very well this year. Let's see, Erin got 1st band, Virginia got 2nd, and Lauren got alternate (which is really good, because she played trumpet last year).

Speaking of horns, do y'all want to have a horn section Christmas party? I think Amy said if we did one we could have it at her house. And, unlike the "horn breakfast"...it will be horns ONLY!

My friend Angela is moving to Canada (British Columbia) in 3 days, I'm going to miss her. I went to saw her at Starbucks today for a little while, I hope to see her again tomorrow, but we have the Christmas parade so I don't know if I will. I told her she should come to my show (A Northside Chirstmas @ Northside Baptist Church ) tomorrow at 6, so I hope I'll see her then.

¡15 mas dias para Navidad!

$61 is how much money we had to pay to get my poor cat out of the pound and i had to promise them my first born as well(not really) but it seemed that way since we had to pay Sixty-one Dollars!!!

***edit***

the reason why he was there is because he goes outside to do his thing because originally he was an outdoor cat before we got him so he doesn't like to stay inside very long. well...there is apparently a leash law for cats and that is why they picked him up...he didn't come back for like 2 nights so we got worried and we went to the pound to see if by chance he got picked up..well he did. he was just chillin' in the cage thing.

I hate having to  pay for crap. It wouldn't be so bad if the money wasn't in such large quantities. Yeah, I have it, but it feels like I'm never going to get some of the things I'm trying to save up for. Sure, it's teaching me stuff that will help me once I'm "grown", but do I really have to learn so young, lol?

Anyway. Work today went surprisingly well. With two people quitting in less than a week, we're definitely on the shorthanded side at the moment. With the exception of Taevan, I hold the title of being there the longest. What an achievement. Maybe he'll make me team leader. Ha, yeah right. I changed Ashley Orman's oil yesterday! It was funny 'cause she asked if I knew what I was doing. . . "Well, I've been here since July so. . .", lol.

Um. Yeah. I'm hungry. And I'm going to be in the parade tomorrow with work.

w00t for getting some more cash off of my textbooks!  All the more to play with as I attempt to totally take advantage of my employee discount tomorrow...  Mwa ha ha ha ha!  I will have all the Game Boy Advance games I could ever desire, including Final Fantasy Dawn of Souls, Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga, Super Mario 3, Fire Emblem 1 & 2, Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission, and perhaps a few more on top of that.  Either that, or I could forget about getting so many and grab my own GBA instead of being stuck with the GB Player on the 'Cube.  So many possibilities...  Why, heck, I could actually bother to get a DS...

...And how 'bout the usage of the FFXI soundtrack with Guild Wars?  An amusing idea to say at the least.

I was pleasantly surprised to hear of someone else hearing of Custer's Last Stand for the Atari the other day.  Marissa's friend Caitlin is really cool.

Anywho, I must take my leave and get ready to join Funki and Marissa in some mad mad mad mad mad mad mad questing.

Any who wish to join us on Guild Wars is more than welcome.  I started my own guild, and we have kick-ass capes!

Life is, well, life is.... horrible? That is seems too much of an understatement. I suppose the worst thing is that I have no idea, whatsoever, where I stand. Yet, God snuck some humor in there as always. To the story:

So there I was, climbing a tree on a nice long hike, when all of a sudden, something happens (still have no idea what) and I am falling from 25ft in the air! I already decided earlier that day I would just let life take its course, so I didn't try to stop from falling. I'm falling and tree limbs are passing by me when I suddenly stop. The very last limb on the tree caught my pants and tore my pants until it balled up and stopped. So there I was, swinging from a tree branch from one leg upside down and I was looking around. I realize right then what just happened, and I was laughing my head off while swinging from the tree branch. The first thing that comes to my head was, "Dammit, Death, I win once again!' very sarcasitcally and continued to laugh so hard I feel tears coming to my eyes, then I fell from like three feet onto my head. LoL

That has to be the funniest thing that has ever happened to me.

Forgive me but...

Sometimes as much as you don't want to...you end up making some dumb typical teenage post about something so unimportant when there are so many others things that are much more vital than this.

it's a mystery.

and i've temporarily sunken to this level.

"if I could find you now things would get better
we could leave this town and run forever"

okay...it's out of my system.
Your intellectual and.... let's face it...the absolute coolest sara is back to her normal self.

Wow.  I think that I just found the most addicting sport in the world.  My hallmates and I played racquetball yesterday and today for about 4 hours a day.  It's kinda funny that we didn't discover this glorious sport until the end of the semester, but there is always next semester.  But anyway today me and Jonathan just played by ourselves for at least a couple of hours.  It's so much fun!  I hope that we can find a spot in Murfreesboro that has some good courts or something.  That would be cool.  Anyways, that is all.  I'm doing good in school.  So far the only grade that I've finalized is a B in a 2nd year English class called Rhetoric and Research.  I just wish that it was just as easy for me to write about a specific given topic than it is for me to write about my thoughts and random concerns.  Oh well.  I guess I'll just have to suck at research papers.  I believe that that was my last English class though so boo yah.  Alright guys.  Leave me some remarks!  

hEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

OK well the time has come for me to answer your questions! here we go!

Well thats it! hope you have enjoyed OPEN FORUM!!!

To end it I have a question for MAtt Beck or Nathan Moore WHERE IS SPARK????? i missed getting all the insight on the interesting stuff you talk about! SERIOUSLY!!

you know
i'm really thankful of my life
sure, there are sometimes where i wish some things were different
but a lot of the times, i have an amazing life
& i have an incredible God here for me all the time.
i'm so thankful for that.

i watched this show last night
it was about this shipwreck
& how these 5 people were trying to survive on a zodiak(a raft)
they had no water or food
& they were in the middle of the atlantic ocean
they were stranded for about 5 days
3 of them died
two of them starting drinkin the sea water because they were so thirsty
they became delusional & they jumped off the side of the raft
sharks were all around them because one of the girls had a huge gaping wound on her leg
& it was bleeding into the ocean
so the sharks smelled it
the two delusionals that jumped off the raft got eaten by the sharks
the other one was the girl with the wound
she had a bad infection that spread throughout her body
& she died on the fourth day
the other two were left on the raft by themselves
finally a cargo ship found them
& they both lived
but they had to watch 3 of their friends die
gah
that would freak me out
they were starving to death.
geeze.
so i'm really thankful
God provides me with a lot.

TAKE THAT Whuah! GLITTER

Approximately five minutes ago I finished reading Redeeming Love by Fracine Rivers. Before picking this book up I was hesitant, after all, "Christian Romance" doesn't sound too exciting does it? Not to say that Christians aren't romantic but very few people talk about it, much capture the essence and wonder of it. Rivers, however, did just that and more. The book itself is about a woman who was sold/forced into prostitution at age eight, eight, after finding out her father had never watned her and her mother had aslo been a prostitute. She lived this way for ten years, not by choice but because she could not escape. She endured unspeakable cruelties at the hands of the men who possessed her.  Needless to say by age eighteen she is bitter, hopeless, and a master of pretense and controlling her emotions, she feels nothing. But more disturbing is that she believes she is what they say, she believes she is a mistake, from birth on. In the depths of her barren soul she believes it.

     In the book a man comes along, Michael. He is a servant of God. He has waited for God's direction, God leads him to Angel. Michael does not understand does not want the road before him but he takes it. He goes after Angel, climbing into the pit she lives in, he tries to rescue her. Of course she wants nothing to do with it, she's heard it ALL before and its just a matter of time before the words run out. For some it is a short time, for others longer, but regardless, in her mind they are all the same. Men are all the same. She is awful to this kind-hearted man, pushes him away, even when something very small and still begins to unfurl inside the heart she thought no longer existed.  Eventually, through MANY trials Michael gets through to her, although not with God's help, a God she denies even while He is working in her. However despite all the obedience and work and progress it turns out that it is not Angel's way of life that is the biggest wall, but yet herself.

  This is where the book delves deep for me. Despite his love, Angel, somewhere deep inside, continues to believe what has been said about her all along, even when she doesn't realize its there, the dark voice whispers to her about what she's always known. "It will never change" "It will end" "You don't deserve this man or his love, he will tire of you" "Leave him before he can leave you" "Get out now before he tires of you" "Don't love, it will be the death of you" "Don't hope, its a slow painful death"

These terrible mantras haunt her, even when she consciously banishes them, even when she begins to believe in Michael, begins to fall in love. The dark voice remains. And so she fights, in her fear she pushes him away, she can't need, can't hope, can't love. After all she's seen exactly what its done to the people in her life who have done those foolish things. She pushes him away, runs away. For it is not that she does not love him, she most certainly does, it is her fear. This seemingly indestructible fear that no matter what she does or how deeply she loves or how tightly she holds on, or what she does to please this man that someday, someway she won't be enough. In her mind she will never be enough. So she runs.

It brought me to tears as I saw my own heart's words written on the pages before me. How many times have I let msyelf believe I wasn't enough? How many times have I pushed away the one person I believe I'm meant for because I was scared to need, scared that if I did need, that one day he'd be gone? This character's internal battles are my own, her war with myself is my own. Though my circumstances are different in some ways, the wounds are the same. It is only through God that Angel learns what it is to be whole again. Despite her aching to make herself whole for the man she loves she cannot on her own. Its takes God. And even as she accepts and understands more and more of this God away from the man she loves, she still doubts, the old ghosts, though they can no longer hurt her, they still haunt. But she goes back. And by God's grace alone he is there, waiting, only for her.

I want that. Not that I want to run and have someone come after me. But I want the ONLY YOU kind of love. There was one particular part in which Angel is talking to a friend about how undeserving she is of this man she loves to consumption and her friend says. "Michael choose you." What a wonderful feeling. I believe, by God's grace and mercy, I, too, have been chosen despite my innumerable faults, flaws, and lack of worthiness, by one remarkable, wonderful man. Now if only I can live up to the role. . .

I hate the internet!!!  espaecally aol!!!

Well this morning I took the ACT. I think I underestimated it a little, especially the science part. It was insanely hard and I guessed on all of the science questions, except for a few. It was long boring, and I was glad to get out of there when it was over. Well anyway, after that me, Mere, Ami, Cole, and a few others left  and headed to La Siesta to eat lunch. I was right at the Northwoods entrance when Betsy Layne stopped her car to turn into Northwoods. I was going like 45 mph and I did NOT see it coming. I don't really know if she stopped suddenly, or if I just wasn't paying attention like I should have been. But when I looked up, I slammed on my brakes and swerved my car to the right and lost control, did a 360, and landed smack into a ditch. Lucky me. But praise God I didn't get hurt and amazingly enough...neither did my car. I don't hardly have a scratch to show for it. This guy helped me get my car out of the ditch so I was thankful for that. So yeah I def. stopped and thanked God for that. Well that's my story for the day. Have a good weekend everybody.

i went christmas shopping with a WHOLE bunch of kids today!! it was awesome!! christmas is great!!

<><Liz

so i s'pose it's about time to update.  hate to move those amazing pictures down, but i guess it has to happen sooner or later!

life is absolutely insane right now.  there's so much to do!  but this time next week i will be school-stress-free!!  and i am SO excited!

there is SNOW here.  lots of it.  on thursday it just started snowing like CRAZY!  it's great!  cold... but i love it!  yesterday, while doing my loads of homework... i sat on the third floor of the library - right by the window - trying to write my unit plan, but mostly watching everyone in the snow.  it's really something y'all miss out on at home.  i love tennessee, but that is its one fault.  it's SOO pretty!  i just kept thinking of God's awesome power - the Creator - who does these amazing things.  Little things.  I mean, who needs snow?  It's wet and cold and dangerous.  but GORGEOUS.  and to think that he is responsible for every tiny, sparkling flake.  thursday night, i just curled up on the couch with some of my mom's great hot chocolate and watched Serendipity with Darin (ain't he a great guy!)... with all the snow outside... it was just this amazingly perfect warm feeling of the holidays... i know it sounds silly, but i just can't help but compare it to God's warmth and love.  it's this completely safe, cared for feeling that i love.  God's embrace.  perfect.

Argh!!! Im really hungry... feed me!

Well I did it! I finally got a job! I am employed by Fazolis!!  I am so excited! I went to orientation last night and got payed for it! I was there for about 3 hours! It is gonna be so much fun. I don't start until the 21st because i am having my wisdom teeth takin Friday and wont be able to work until the 21st! Im gonna have my own money! I can buy whatever i want to!

Like i said i am getting my wisdom teetch takin out on Friday! Ouch! I really dont want to but i have to! Plus i have to take 3 exams on thursday and 1 on Friday b4 the surgery! It sucks but i wont be able to take them! So please pray for me!

I got asked the other day why i dont go to church on Wen anymore! Im not really sure why but, i just dont enjoy it anymore. Hardly any of my friends go! I still do go on Sunday but then at the service I leave. I found out that we werent going to BIG STUF! I was a little upset. Plus we arent going to NY over Spring Break! I heard we are going over the summer but, it is only for 11 people and those spots are already filled up. I just think that the youth group has gotten WAY to big for me. I mean I never see any one! I asked someone the other day what it was like now and they said a big show! Dont think i am trying to say negative things about it but, i know it is not me! But maybe i will go sometime and try it out for myselef! I love all yall and hope to see you soon! Lots of Love,

Alicia

29 years of being afraid of venturing into the great unknown has me now (why just now?) starting to crawl out.

2006 is my year, to regain goals, vision and determination to make it in this world.

One of the things that has got me thinking was all those "I should have died" Discovery channel shows and other such things, when people are about to die, and for some reason (God's grace) they don't when they should have.

Or you have your shows of people with great adversity and handicaps that are so passionate in heart for life.  I am 29, entry level Middle Class and I think I have it bad?  People like them give me gumption to soar like they are.

I volunteered to paint the backdrop for the pictures for the formal at the BCM. I worked on it Wednesday night and Thursday morning. I painted it blue and then spattered it with white paint to make it look like snow. I thought it looked pretty good. Then of course we had Christmas Manna on Thursday. Manna is the worship service that the BCM. Anyway, Amanda and I signed the Doxology for that. It was fun. Amanda made me twirl her after the song was over. Tricia was supposed to sign with us but she couldn't make it. I still think it's really cool that Amanda, who is blind, wants to be a part of an American Sign Language praise team. Of course, Tricia is also visually impaired, and that's cool, too. I wonder why I can't get anybody that can see to join it... Oh well. I wish I knew some Deaf people at MTSU. Anyway, on Friday, I set up the lights for the Christmas banquet. I also hung the sails. And hung the Christmas lights. I broke on of the Fresnels that the BCM has, but I can fix it. I just need a new lamp. I'm also going to talk to Amber about a cheap way we can improve the lighting at the BCM. Anyway, Friday night was the actual banquet. It was good. I wanted to go by myself, so I didn't have a date. I had fun. During the banquet, Daniel told Amanda to hit me with a pillow, and a pillow fight started. She said she didn't think I'd fight back. Well, I did. Everybody liked the coat I wore. Then on Saturday, I helped with Habitat for Humanity. After that week, I was hurting so bad, I could hardly stand up. It was great though.

Then last week, I had some of my blind friends come over to teach me how to cook.  It was a lot of fun.  It was also my birthday so they brought me a cake and stuff.  Jessica got Elizabeth to make me a cake, so now I have two cakes.  If anybody wants to come over and have some birthday cake, just write me.

Notice I never say "just great."
Notice I never say "well."
Notice I never say "horrid" or "grand."
When you ask how I’m doing, it’s scarce above "hell."

---

When you loved me I could not write
A single word of rhyme or prose.
I struggled with the implements,
But put them all down for a rose.

I thought the loss a small one,
Though I admit I missed the pen.
And now my heart is torn in two,
The words flow easy back again.

---

So those were written in a fit of depression, and while I'm not really depressed right now, I felt compelled to slap some writing up here.

I also feel compelled to write a story about the Italian Mafia or the Russian 'Mafiya.'
Actually, I typically feel compelled to write a lot of things.
And say the word 'compelled.'
Compelledcompelledcompelled.

Goodness gracious.  I had three coffee-enhanced beverages in nine hours.  That's one every three hours.  Addiction knows no bounds.
....My hands are shaking.
Curse you, addiction.
Until tomorrow morning, that is.  At which point you shall be embraced by open, bleary arms.

So yeah.  There was a mouse in my room this (technical) morning.  Know how I found this out?  It woke me up by running across my face.  ....And somehow getting under the covers.  Now for those of you who have never been roused by something small and rodenty skittering over your cheek, permit me to explain: you will move faster than you ever have in your entire life, because you have no idea what just did that, and for all you know it could be bloodsucking.  So when the cat scratched at my door to be let in, by God she was let in.  Such is the cost of rousing me from my slumber.  You will die.  An obese cat will hunt you down and dispatch you with a frightening amount of noise, and I will find your rigor-mortis-ized body in the morning and dispose of you.  So think carefully, if you really want to test how much of a morning person I am not.

Wow.... Mom made something called "peasant stew."  Delighful!  No peasants were harmed in the manufacturing of this product.

Christmas it today for me. Since I"m going
on vacation next weekend, I really won't have time to do anything
Christmasy-ish so we're doing christmas this afternoon (once josh gets
into town). Then out to the G-parent's house for a family chrismas....

But then again where would all the excitement come in? I guess I am just to the point where I see my life right now and then I see where I am going and I just want to get there. I want to be able to say that I made it. I want high school to be out of the way and get to where I really want to go....but God is holding me back telling me that there are so many more lessons I have yet to learn. I see so much potential for the people around me but wonder if they have the same desire I do...do they just want to stay put where they are or do they actually want to go somewhere? I wonder if they see the world outside their own lives - outside the doors of high school... this makes me want to be a grown-up and a kid all at the same time. There are times when my thoughts seem so simple but come out so complicated.

God has thrown a lot of decisions at me lately and i guess thats why there are so many thoughts bouncing around inside my head right now...i think music/praying/friends are keeping me in good shape ...So here's a song I wrote that might explain me a little better...

What am I

Wakin up with the sunrise hitting my face...

You arms are peace that fill the space...

Rocking me to the sound of your lullaby ...

Wondering why I ever said, "Good-bye..."

What am I but a piece of your endless flow

Of love and saving grace?

What am I but a moment in the grains

Of sand that you have placed?

What am I but a portrait of your love

You painted on the cross?

What am I but a sinful heartknowing

Yo u bled to fill the cost?

What am I?

Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy?  Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare. - Isaiah 55:2

+ML+

Edit: i made a big mess this time...its time to clean it up...

i need to learn how to cook!!!!
yup!

i want a puppy!!!
yup!

going to work off 5 hours of sleep for me may not be a good idea!!!

Love Through Christ!

James is totally unsure if a time of intense reflection mixes well with the weekend before finals. Whether they go together or not it's what I have now, and I spent nearly 3 hours writing about it last night. Just some of those personal things that go on in your mind, that you hardly ever give yourself the opportunity to fully think through. I guess you never know what can happen when you give yourself the chance to think about something that's hard, something that's challenging, something that scares the crap out of you.

-James

Distance home... 3.6 miles
Avg. speed... 50 mph
Temperature...  21 F

If I could grow a beard, I would. The wind goes between my helmet and coat and makes my chin numb. But, who cares about the cold ride home? Grilled cheese, mindless TV, and 7161923201 made it worth it.

Gotta get up in five hours so I can go to work early. Why? Cause I'm going to see Chronicles tomorrow night (read: tonight)!

What am I going to do with nine days?

    As I sit here, I am thinking about how much of a drastic change my life took this week. I feel radically different. I am much happier and just seem to think about some things different. I have started to find my self, not caring at all about how other people view me, and just focusing on how God views me. He views me a His child. I am not worried about how other people look at me and I am not worried about what they have and I dont and vise versa. I know that God provides for me when I am in need and I know that He blesses me with every breath and every minute of my life. I am so blessed beyond what I deserve. He has given me life, friends, family, a home, and many other things that I can not list because of your attention span and me not wanting to type FORVER!

If the good Lord blesses me with tomorrow,

i had a really fun night.

FUN night!!!!

i took Josef to Cafe Coco! i hadn't been since like September. i had my vanilla mocha thingy, and my hummice. ^_^ Jo said he really liked it.

i got to see ALAN and LIBBY!! it was great.

omg, and huge coincindence, Rachel Pearl was there singing! it was so epic. i didn't even know she was gonna be there.

i definetly missed that place.

<3

So ... I juz saw Narnia!!! It most deff kicked major aceage!!! Not only do I LOVE the book ... but the movie was AWESOME!!! And that Peter ... I think I might have juz found my NEW husband!!! Sorry Eric ... but Peter has an accent!!! Maybe I shouldnt call him Peter ... his name is William!!! So to all you girls who go see it ... "DONT TOUCH MY WILLIE" LOL ... But its definantly a MUST see movie!!! It was really good ... and if you havent already ... read the book ... it doesnt take THAT long to read it!!!

Lata bitches!!!

okay.. since i know not many people read this thing.. i feel like i can be way more personal & let alot more things out on here than i could on xanga.... so here goes

ever feel like you just dont fit into your "group" anymore? like.. you were just an add-in? and no one really wants you there....
man thats a freakin crappy feeling to have....
like... i know i have friends.... but i just dont feel like i'm completely wanted anymore... & that they have a good time without me.. & i realize that maybe i havent treated them the best lately..... which is probably a big reason why this is going on... i mean who wants to hang out with someone who is mean all the time?! i dont know... today was just... BAD ...
like... nothing really bad went on... i just felt left out.. unwanted.... not needed.... unloved... forgotten..... & those feelings all stink realllllly bad.. and it doesnt help much when people pile on to your bad day by saying very mean things that were completely uncalled for....... yeah i'm talking to you....

but anyway.. i just felt the need to get all that out....
thanks for reading it if you read this far....

by the way.... i'm definitely NOT looking for sympathy & i'm not trying to sound all depressed & suicidial & emo- like..... thats not me AT ALL... i just wanted to get some stuff out so i would feel better

everyone have a great weekend!

 
& i freakin love my sister... no matter how many times she takes my clothes without asking or steals the phone... ill still always love her... shes always there & i dont know what id do without her..... i love you shawniebonnie.... you're my favorite <3

edit//
so i thought all these insecurities & doubting myself was over with.. i thought i had conquered my fear & i was finally happy with myself and left all that horrible, horrible stuff back in the summer where it belongs... but sitting here thinking about it..... i know i am over it.... its just.. something about today brought that feeling back again... it just came rushing in like a flood.... & i definitely dont want it here.. i really shouldnt let what "people" say affect me.......... but i guess its an old habit coming back.... Lord PLEASE help me overcome this fear again & keep it away for good.... dont let satan come back & release this fear into my life.. theres no reason to doubt or be insecure... i know i have Jesus in my heart and i know HE'S with me & would never say ANYTHING bad about me.... and thats all that matters

btw my bday is on the 13th, this tuesday, sweet 16, im getting my permit, woo hoo

yeah the party was ok i guess, not great, didnt do much but after that we went to lazer blaze, i came in second both times, and i was really close to winning, prolly 2 shots away, o well, it was fun though, i just wish i was as good as kevin, haha ill cyall later.

So I got to go to my high school's madrigal dinners which I loved.  It was awesome to see my friends.  I'm going home tomorrow morning.  I came home for less than 24 hours.  It seems to be a trend.  Narnia came out today and apparently all my friends went to go see it so I will not have anyone to go see it with.  Kinda makes me sad.  Ya know...it happens.  Apparently everyone was at the free showing of it tonight.  Like the entire BSU.  I wanna go...for free.  But that won't happen.  Sadness.  Oh well.  It'll have to work.

ACT....don't wanna!

Sebastian!  He's okay!  *pets computer*  I missed him.

He had to be fixed twice.  The first time Elaine fixed it, she forgot to check it after she closed the computer case.  Which is a shame, because a wire was pinched and made a short circuit or some technological drabble like that.  So my dad had to take Sebastian back to the office.  I got him back yesterday and just now got him hooked back up.  ^_^

Had a night out with buds that wasn't on a Tuesday or at Fazoli's.  Amazing, I know.  Megan, Leah, Becky, Christi, Eric, and I went to The Nap for some good ol' Murfreesboro-style Mexican food.  Unfortunately, Christi and Becky couldn't join the rest of us when we went to see Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire afterwards.

Fun fun.

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe tomorrow!  *squeal*  Can't wait.  Well, I think I'm gonna crawl in bed and do some reading for a while.

Good night, everyone!

p.s.  Auto-tagging drives me crrrrrazy.

So I just got back from my Youth Goup's Christmas Party. It was totally awesome. We had Chic-Fil-A for supper, and we played alot of games and stuff like that. And then we went to Lazer Blaze and played laser tag. It was the first time I had played laser tag since I was like 9 years old...so that was fun. And I am also very happy that it is almost Christmas and my B-Day is on Wed. Well, that's whats going on right now.

Haha, Momma W. thinks I'm cool  ^_^

So we (myo) had our run-out today and it was fun! I <3 little kids at these schools we go play at, they are too cute. We had a good lunch too, omg...it was AMAZING! I had like...pizza, veal(?), rice, a calzone, some other random stuff that people just gave me, and CHEESECAKE! I took a picture, it was that good. I hate for like, an hour. I'm such a glutt'n.

We had our marching band practice after school today, it went well. I'm marching on the end :the hard spot: but it's all good.

My church's Christmas thing was tonight, it went really well. I'm playing w/ Mr. Jolly and he's so cool. We talked about horns before we started and going to horn workshops, ect. His horn is one of the old Farkas models (like y'all know what that is) and it's mucho better than the ones the school has. But yeah, the performance was really good, for sightreading most of it. I had him take top on this one part because it's like...up in the heavens of horn world and I'm pretty sure I would have killed it from all the playing I've done today...but he did an amazing job.

¡16 mas dias para navidad!

So I'm doing a lot of thinking and a lot of decision- making. Please bear with me. No, I do not know where I will be in the Spring. WR, BPC, AASU? Yesterday, all I wanted to do was come home, but you know, that's probably not the best plan. I think I will stick with the original, and it will be fabulous. Then I can be an adult on my own, although I will have no friends where I am going. I can't wait to have my own place, and a job, and be going to a new school. I just want to start life. I really want to get an apartment now. I have everything to furnmish it, and make it my own.

So I bought myself  a little christmas present...a 4GB nano Ipod with my name engraved on it and everything! Im so excited!!YAY!!

so.... im home from work!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!  and now im bout to go watch Mr. and Mrs. Smith.... i will have lotsa new pics on here tomorrow and im going to share them w/ all of u fell special .... i love you all!!
~tRISH

act tomorrow..

school play tomorrow night with some of the coolest people i know!

baking cookies sunday..

love yall..

Oh I forgot that my soccer ninjas literally balled tonight. Rundown 8-1 .. 3 of those were assisted my me. So I guess that just made my day. Those assists made up for the 3 shots I missed. Sigh.

It's all because we're ballers. Yeah be jealous =)

I've decided I officially dislike school. Why?I'm not doing so hott at all.  Especially chemistry. I need lots and lots of prayer. Really. I'll probably be grounded for a while so yeahhhhh I won't update. =( Did I also mention I have work detail next Friday when we weren't supposed to be at school. Basically I'm late all the time, so now I have to be there on Friday at 7:30 am.

Did I say I really don't like school??

alright then! so i dont update this very much anymore. oh well. but yea. yesterday was cool actually..well it got cool at the end. so basically its been freezing lately. i cant stand it and i want it to be warmer again. our summers suck and our winters suck. but at least our winters are better than our summers...kinda. its been so nice tho, very little homework and stuff. i only gotta go to like 2 finals and only one of them actually really matters lol. i could fail the other one and it wont matter at all cuz i have like a 98 in it. and i barely do anything in it anyway.

Government-we've been doing nothing but test review and our test was today so thats all done with and im exempting it so no more stuff to do in that class
English-this one i actually do have to take the final cuz 1. i wouldnt have exempted it this semester even if i could and 2. its a college course so i cant, its against college policy. so everyone has to take that one. but right now we're just doing project presentations and we just finished that today so now we're gonna be watching a movie the rest of the time till finals
pre-cal-i exempted that but i still have to do the review but oh well. its a whole page, big deal. so thats all we're doing in that class right now
physics-we turned in projects today so we're all done in that class too AND im most likely gonna be exempting this course if i have at least an 80 in that class which...would be the best thing in the world cuz that final is on my bday and i HATE that class and i know i'll fail the final if i gotta take it so plz plz plz! i need at least a 75 for this six weeks tho and i had a 70 on my progress report. so im hoping the project and stuff helped.
gym-ok the teacher specifically said i dont have to show up but shes not gonna tell me not to. shes just gonna count me absent or whatever. so oh well
drafting-this one ive been sitting there and doing nothing in and monday we go thru the review together.

so then yesterday after school was pretty cool. i had been getting mad at anthony randomly cuz i just wasnt in a good mood or something, im not sure. but yea it was kinda a not cool day for many reasons and i almost cried a couple times. mainly in gym class i did cry a bit. but he could tell i was in a bad mood so he let it go which i was really happy about cuz i just couldnt take all the extra stuff. so once i saw him after school everything was ok again. cept for my mood swings of course but i held those in. so i got home and told anthony we could hang out if he drove over here cuz my stepdad had to use my car. so he said he couldnt but didnt give me a reason why and then all of a sudden he called and told me to get on AIM and then he never came back. so i called his house and nina said he went to adams house. so that upset me cuz he had told me he wanted to talk to me and to get on the comp so we could or whatever and then he left to adams after not giving me an explanation why he couldnt come see me. i know it sounds stupid but whatever. so i was like whatever and went to take a shower. then when i got out of the shower i went to room and my mom told me to come out to the kitchen to do whatever chore, feed the pets. so i did and when i passed my living room, from my couch i heard "BOO!" and i just kept walking without looking and my mom asked who that was and i said "Tim" cuz i was thinking hes just trying to scare me again or whatever. then i realized tim's gone and so i looked over and there was anthony laughing. him and my mom plotted against me, he snuck in while i was in the shower and watched tv while he was waiting for me and wouldnt let my mom talk to him to give it away.

but it was really awesome that he surprised me and everything cuz it made me feel tons better and we got to hang out the whole evening. it was really nice, he even watched my favorite show with me till he had to go home. so yea, he made yesterday all better.

today has been pretty average tho. i gotta work later. adam, mike, and anthony seemed to be ganging up on me after school today the way to my car. adam even gave anthony paddle so that he could spank me and said i was asking for it. ugh, what the fuck did i do? but yea, i was supposed to drive emily home but then anthony went and said he would cuz its in his direction and i live in the opposite direction of fairfield. but it still kinda upset me cuz i was intending to do that but oh well. everythings upsetting me so its not a big deal. and mai wants to meet adam lol. omgosh, i need to warn her before i actually introduce them.

So, on occasion, I have been known to speak my mind.

[these occasions are not rarities(sp)]

Anyhow, I've been tired and confused; frustrated and annoyed; happpy and pleased; entertained and enthusiastic; wonderful and inspired; by Josh Pipes. Yes, that's right.

Did you know there are now debates over whether or not it is politically incorrect to use the word christmas because it promotes Christianity? Politics and politicians.  

Speaking of, Christmas is just around the corner.

Corinthians 13:4-7 

i am new to this so forgive me if i mess it up! lol 16 days till CHRISTmas!!! yall--life is so amazing! all these little things that we gripe over are really not worth it at all!! always try to be happy because if you are depressed all the time then it will just ruin your life! well...i hope yall have an amazing day!!! Go with God!

<3--->kate

That had to be the coldest, most painful practice ever. What a great way to finish up a very painful week, after long sleepless nights and Mr. Dusenberry laughing at my incompetence...

Life is all about change...why not bring it on?

Hmm..so yea change is actually good. If yah have to have bad change, why not make it good with some good change? So I cut my hair short ! :-D I really like it. And I'm going to be me no matter what. So yea...it's a beautiful life we live, it just has a few bruises...even those that live under the skin. Hope everyone is  having a great day! I love you all! _Kristi_ *Don't stop playing the game, just because you get knocked down.*

Hey ya'll! I just wanted to tel you Clint, that Sharon and I love you with all our little DURTY hearts! We hope you realize that we will always be here for you no matter what! We love you for you, not for what other people have told us, no one can change our mind of how we feel about you! I just hope ou know that baby! WE LOVE YOU! "It's 2am and she calls me cause i'm still awake, can u help me unravel my latest mistake, i don't love him" babe it sounds better when you sing it to us!!

Brandi

arg.

but i have to work on Carly's late bday present.

{edit} it only opened in NY, LA, and SanFran today...

Latin is eating me. 

And I'm sure the ACT is already licking his chops.

Or her chops?  Maybe the ACT is female.

Either way I am Standarized Test Chow.

so... i gotta go to work and i gotta new manager... and i HATE him.... i hope his 1 armed butt dies!!!... AHHHHHHH some one come see me so i can have some kinda relief...... oh i work @ mrs. winner's... for the ppl who dont know.... well im off to the chicken palace... more later!
~tRISH

Well, the first exam is over with. It was much easier then i thought it would be. Thats pretty sweet...but i still have a butload of practicing to get in before monday for my Jazz Piano jury. Then for my Jazz Drums jury....and my Percussion jury....then thats it, but still...i'm really nervous about all of this. I guess it is all worth it...very soon, i shall return to murfreesboro.

I'm pretty sure that there is going to be a Superbowl game when i get back. Should be fun. care to join?? Your company would be very much appreciated.

Thank you guys for the questions.

was up wasup

how is life for the peeps of the world ok i will act white now lol

but today is boring and i will go home and have some friends over to hangout and have a hoe down yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehawwwwwww  but yes i am country amanda ayers and always will but you know you love me lol but anyways yall talk to me later c you after while bye bye

well I wrote an entry but deleted it for my safety- let me just say I dont live with the smartest people in the world and one of them has come very close to burning down the appartment....and i fear its more than one occasion. This week has been emotional for many people I know. One of my best's broke it off with her boyfriend of 3 years, they were practically engaged, had everything planned, then poof! one day he decided that wasnt good enough and he was going to cheat on her....alot! Hes crazy! Literally! A mental case...and if you knew the rest of the store....whew! My best's roomate and i drove to belmont to try to kick his butt but he was too chicken to walk down a flight of stairs.

All this makes you appreciate how your life is and what you have, or what you dont have in some cases. Theres something about seeing people hurt and broken, I can't explain it- but it just makes you want to give them a big hug and a huge medicated bandaid to fix it all up.

had the first final today....it went alright- im just so happy to be finished. I don't think its hit me yet that I'll be leaving everyone I've grown to love so much for a month. I know that sounds silly but Im going to miss everyone. And its back to the old warner robins life where you have to walk on eggshells and everyone knows where you are going and what youre doing. i cant get away with anything at home...not like Im such a rebel- but still. Back to the other side of the double life. I know I've changed but still, I shouldnt have to pretend like I havent. This is the first christmas in a while ill be single, first one that the family is staying at our house, first one with out grandparents figuratively, first one where i know who my real friends are, and having majority of them be 500+miles away from me, and first one as a grown up. I know that sounds silly- i was 18 last year, but I have alot more responsibilites, alot more financial commitments, alot more time I have to be constructive with. ahh this is coming to be longer than I thought....oh well- gotta go!

Whats Up PB? Its The Weekend It's Time To Get Out And Have Fun... Man, I Have So Many Plans For This Weekend And I'm Hoping To Spend This Weekend With My Baby Allyssa... I Don't Have Half-Timers Practice Until Monday And Everybody Knows That The Half-Timers Is HOT This Year... Thats Whats So Fresh About It... We Are Currently Working On A New Routine Right Now Which Is Gonna Also Be HOT... I Mean Its Gonna Leave Yall On Fire!!! I'm Just Joking Its Gonna Be Tight Tho... Well, I'll Be Back To Update My Page Soon, But For Now I Gotta Have Me Some Fun!!! Who Run It? 06!!!!

Everybody can join my new group..."I do the awkward turtle in random moments of silence" JOIN NOW!!!!!!!!

so the other night at church was awesome!  that is the most i have ever felt the presence of god in my life.  i decided that im a jerk.  not the funny kind that makes people laugh but the kind that hurts people's feelings so that is something that i need to change.  but  all i can do is just pray about it, because there is nothing that i can do about it for myself.  So if i was ever mean to you then from the bottom of my heart i am seriously sorry.  if i could take it back then trust me i would!

if i asked you to run away with me, would you come?

(have you ever noticed that the people you want to answer this kind of question the most never do?)

this my friends, is miss haylie's new hair:)
don't you love it??
it actually looks darker in person
so don't be fooled:)

Well ya'll,

This is it. I am down to my past few hours in SC and I am having second thoughts. I am sure it is just human nature to question if I am doing the right thing, but I am not sure this time. 

The packing process is not yet finished, so I need to do that pronto. I will be updating when I get back to the 'Boro.

I am very tired. I'm working off of about 3hrs of sleep and my day is no where near over. Narnia by the way is awesome! I saw it at 12:01 am this morning. Lots of people I knew were there so it was really cool. Not much else.
The best feeling in the world is when you're driving home at around 2:30 in the morning, and there's nothing around you. It's just you, the noise the heater makes, the music you turned on to cover up the noise the heater makes because it's only like 20 degrees outside, and absolutly nothing around you but darkness. It's awsome, or at least for me it was.

Well just sitting in here listening to blink-182 "stay together for the kids" Sad song but, its great. So nothing has happened..umm lately OMG the best song ever by 311 is "beautiful disaster" Heres the lyrics yah this is def my song!

311
Beautiful Disaster

Today seems like a good day to burn a bridge or two
The one with old wood creaking that would burn away right on cue
I try to be not like that but some people really suck
Some people need to get the axing chalk it up to bad luck
I know a drugstore cowgirl so afraid of getting bored
She's always running from something so many things ignored
I might do that stuff if it didn't make me feel like shit
I'm on some old reality tip so many trips in it
Beautiful disaster
Flyin' down the street again
I tried to keep up
You wore me out and left me ate up
Now I wish you all the luck
You're a butterfly in the wind without a care
A pretty train crash to me and I can't care
I do I don't whatever
I know a drugstore cowgirl so afraid of getting bored
She's always running from something so many things ignored
I try to be not like this but I thought it'd make a good song
There's nothing to see shows over people just move along

 

OMG this is the bass that i want!!
