i think i'll do my kids a favor and move to the plateau!

"God must be Disappointed in us"

i am so disappointed in people...and i know that if i get this disappointed in people i barely know then, I AM is broken-hearted (figuratively speaking) by their actions, because He loves us with all of his heart and He never wants us to encounter sin.


We are all made in HIs image and when we sin we are breaking away from God's perfect image that he has created for us!!! wow! he loves us! he created us just like him!!!

Like many people who went to BigSTUF.... i am reading God's blogs
by lanny donoho...its like God's way of being technological and
writting on a cool little blog (much like this one here). i love it,
it's a great book that is easy to read and lanny makes some great
points!


"prone to wander, Lord to feel it. prone to leave the God i love"


(i my God's blogs, everytime god refers to himself he says I AM, cause that's his name. he's not really anything specific, he just is...kinda a big concept huh?)

MY BRAIN IS OVERSTIMULATED!!!!!!!

1.  just found out that _____ ______ ___ _____!!!!  (i would love to tell you, but i can't)

2.  roy, this really nice manager who use to work at Demos'? yeah, well, we thought he had quit to move to texas, NOPE!  he was fired for sexual harrassment!!  AND HE IS A SWINGER!!!!  creeeeeepy

3.  the guy who came into marble slab this summer with brooks boyd, the guy who looks like FREDDIE PRINCE JR. he now works at Demos' and is JUSTIN SURPASS the drunkard who had been arrested about a zillion times!!!

my head hurts!!!

also, this is sad, i was waiting to eat tonight, and standing next to me was a family w/ a "papa" who was drunk in public and the little boy was so sad because he knew his family was causing a scene and was really embarrassed.  it just made realize that i'm really blessed with the family i have and i hope that one day, he will not be like the rest of them.

uhh ohh...i think i like a college boy....

i have a feeling, this is not going to be good...

i woke up to this...


and then, i went to eat...


and ate some birthday dessert


and i came home to find all my friends...

and then i got a cake!!!


so, all in all, my 18th birthday was fun...sorry it has taken so long to post...have a great week and good luck with midterms...

love_rebekah

saturday, morgan, my mom, and myself are going to see the rockettes and eat somewhere good...any suggestions on where to eat??

sunday is my birthday...family is going to bell buckle for lunch...

can you tell all holidays in my family center around food?  yummy!

I LOOOOOVE RACHAEL ROBERTSON!!
SHE IS DEFINETELY ONE OF MY
FAVORITE PEOPLE!
I LOVE HER BUNCHES!!

I MADE HER A PICTURE ON "PAINT" BUT PHUSEBOX WOULDNT LOAD IT...SOMETHING ABOUT BLAH BLAH BLAH   : (  <sad rebekah

so, i went to the doctor this morning and i have been put on voice rest because i have (a) a choir performance on the 16th (b) a choir concert on the 19th and (c) a voice recital on the 20th...so yeah, im freaking out.  you never really realize how isolated it would feel until someone says you can't talk...or sing.  it sucks.  though, i dont have to go to work today...the doctor wrote a note and said i couldnt work unless i dont have to talk...and my boss said i didnt have to come in...so yay!

so yeah, my mom is out getting my medicine (steroids for the voice and cough medicine)  though, my doctor said something about tea, honey, lemon and whiskey...i think my mom may try that one, just cause it seems funny...

have a great day! i love you!!

countdown to "the birthday" - 8 days!!!!!!!!!!

send me with fire to go love the world

i dont feel good

hope you've had a good day.

i dont drink, the last post was a song (my mom thought differently)

i love you

Well i've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
and i thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
but im just drunk enough to let go of my pain
to hell with my pride
let it fall like rain, from my eyes
Tonight, i wanna cry



"i'm not better than most girls...well, i am, i just dont tell them that."
_matt hall (the kid who thinks he better than, literally, everyone...)

i hate when people open my mail!!!

and what does my mother do?

she opens my ACCEPTANCE LETTER to union...and she doesnt think its a big deal...she thinks that it is her right to open my ACCEPTANCE LETTER!!!!

am i being stuck up?  but this is really bothering me!!! it's my ACCEPTANCE LETTER!!

and to top it off, she was like, yeah, well, you got into union, your letter came in mail, i guess you better start applying for scholarships if you wanna go, cause you arent going unless you get money...like it was nothing no big deal that i had just been accepted to my top choice school...like it was just some casual letter from a friend i see every day!

i dont really know how to start this...mainly because its a rant...and i dont want to offend anyone...so its all going to be as  vague as i can manage

1. i can't stand people who dont know how to keep their mouth shut.  you tell them things that you think are in confidance, but they have mindset to go talk about it...i dont care how mad or defensive it makes you! if you get that mad and upset, its probably for a reason.  we all hate to be called out, but sometimes it just has to happen.  and i hate it cause i care about the person i was talking about...he's still a friend and i wouldnt want to lose him for good, too painful really.  maybe i learned my lesson back in the 8th grade, but i guess some people arent learning it until their senior year...

2.  i had a very good talk with shana mcdaniel and matt hall the other night.  it was just about the future and what we want for ourselves, for our family, and for our future spouse.  just the future in general.  i just realized how much life i have left and i dont want to make anymore mistakes than i have to.  i want my husband and my little boys or my little girls.  and i want it to be hard.  but, i want Him to be there for me even when i can't hold my head up.  and another note, i dont really want to date anyone else this year,  i just dont want to get attached.  i use to think i wanted to marry someone i went to high school with, but now, i dont really.  i just want to live and let it happen.  and granted, i plan everything, i still want my life to fall in place, however God sees fit.  i've realized life is one big roller-coaster of emotional ups and downs, but i like it that way, if you were always happy or always sad, it may be void of anything real and true.  i need to go now, but i think there should always be three points, cause two seems lacking

3.  i like passion tea from starbuck's...i've found i can try all the teas, not get sick, and enjoy nice hot drinks (not coffee) all at once...yum yum...

so those are my three points...sorry if i hurt you.  im sorry if you have no idea what im talking about.  im sorry if you do know what im talking about, cause if you do, i most likely offended you.  but, know that i love you im just ready to move on.
