china

December 21 2006

well hello everyone!


how is the holiday season treating you? i am just getting into the christmas spirit...sort of...anyways...some very exciting things are going on. i am going to China in june for a month! i am part of a mission internship and i am really excited about the opportunity. it's alot to think about. it's a little scary to be honest. i have never been out of the country before and it's a month but i'm too excited to be really bothered by it.


i can't believe christmas is on monday! that means that half of my senior year is over and graduation will be here before i realize it. i'm ready to graduate.

well...

December 11 2006

October 14 2006
i am leaving for New York and Washington monday! i am so excited and i can't wait! i have been wanting a new adventure and here it is. this is the trip i have been waiting for since 7th grade! there is only one tiny problem...i have never been on a plane before...i am just a little scared. but i'm thinking if i take my ipod i will be ok. that usually distracts me. oh i can't wait!

so tired. need coffee

last soccer trip

September 09 2006

....that makes me kind of sad. I decided to go on the girls soccer trip to Florida. It's the last trip i'll ever go on with the soccer team.the seasons almost over too and i know that i get fed up with it and say i want to quit but the truth is that i love it.there's nothing quite like the feeling of playing soccer and having fun at the same time which i've actually experienced a few times this year.

senior year....

August 06 2006
i can't believe it! I'm finally a senior and i can't get that out of my head. it's weird, yet it's incredibly exciting to know that i will be moving on in life very soon. (i know May dosen't seem that soon but time flies when you aren't paying attention.) i remember starting school last year and thinking that senior year was ages away....i can't believe i thought that! it seems like the past year was just a blink and here i am sitting at my computer two days before i begin my last year of highschool wondering where it all went. don't get me wrong, i am happy to be graduating, thrilled actually, but i wonder if the rest of my life will pass by in the blink of an eye.

May 08 2006

this song is  wonderful. i have to sit back and listen to it.


stress...is...not so good..

April 09 2006

   i was driving aimlessly around my neighborhood after church tonight and it kinda reminded me of this past summer when i would ride around with the windows down and radio blasting right as the sun was going down. i love that feeling. the feeling of peace and feeling my worries slip away and letting the music take over.

retreat

March 13 2006

so... i went on a retreat this past weekend and....it was wonderful. i really got alot out of it. it was really nice to get away from murfreesboro for a weekend and and sorta get away from some of my troubles. but of course i am now having post retreat depression and i kinda want to go back. oh well....on a brighter note we are now in the 4th quarter of the school year and spring break is 2 weeks away!!! yay! i'll be 17! (yes i know i'm stupid but i can't help being excited!) ahh....spring break...i cannot wait!


i haven't been to starbucks in almost 2 weeks. (sniff sniff)

and the frustration continues....

March 08 2006
yes i know...i complain way to much....but i really am frustrated with myself for pushing people away. but what else am i supposed to do? trusting someone is hard for me. i wish i could easily trust people but i don't know....i just went completely blank.

Strange and Beautiful by Aqualung

The Astronaut by Something Corporate

February 14 2006

so...valentines day was not fun at all but i will not complain anymore because i am tired of complaining and i'm sure you all are tired of me ranting about valentines day. (those of you who have to put up with me everyday at school. i am sorry for my complaining)


so i was feeling kinda sad after school and decided to go to my favorite place to waste time...Hastings. i got a Something Corporate cd and now i am feeling a bit happier. (by the way, it's an amazing cd. Leaving Through The Window. you should get it if you don't already have it) well...that was my day...WINTERFEST IS THIS WEEKEND!!!!


AND I AM SO EXCITED!!!

Mansfield Park

February 12 2006

it's an excellent movie. The soundtrack is really good too.


Mansfield Park is a book by Jane Austen and it's one of my favorites.


so...i'm just sitting here, listening to music and occasionaly glancing outside to see if it's still snowing.(it isn't in case you wanted to know) But all this sitting around inside has kinda put me in a contemplative mood. I'm wondering if i had acted differently in certain situations if things would have been different and possibly better.i'm really not sure what the answer to this question is. after all this thinking ...the only conclusion i've come to is that i think i might have lost a really good friend.it makes me so sad to think about it.


as i sit here all the good memories come flooding back and i find myself feeling even sadder than before.

ack!

February 05 2006

so...dress shopping? not so fun.goodness... i finally got a dress after going to three stores and the funny thing is that i didn't want to go to banquet anyways but my lovely friends have given me no choice.ok..i have to admit that i love the dress! it's extremely poofy! (hee hee hee)so...this might actually be fun..now i'm just hoping that maybe i'll have a date. (ha ha,that's funny. it'd be nice but i'll be fine without a date).


well my friends..i am off to bed. buenas noches.

Frustration

January 19 2006
Why is life so hard?

sadness

January 09 2006
i feel as though i am losing friends. I'm not sure if it's something i've done or we just don't have anything to talk about anymore. So many things have changed since summer and some have been good and others not so good. It just makes me really sad.

The Producers

January 07 2006

Hello everyone!


well...i have to say it's been i pretty nice weekend. I went to see The Producers last night with a couple of friends and it was awesome! I absolutely loved it! Other than that i've been watching the O.C. and listening to music.I'm trying to enjoy this weekend because next weekend is going to be hectic. My school is having Homecoming next saturday and i'm one of the junior attendants. I'm kinda nervous actually because i'm afraid i'll trip and fall flat on my face.Maybe it'll be fun. Well...i think i'm gonna go watch the O.C.


Goodnight!
