Cool Stuff

Hey everyone! Long time no see. Things have been incredibly busy. I usually end up getting to school at about 7. But I don't end up getting hom until 5. That's 10 hours at school... plus homework and work and church. So it's a busy busy corky. Kim and Alan have got me involved in drama... and I have to say, I'm having a ball. I'm absolutely loving it. Each day is more fun and adventerous than the next.
Creative writing is also a ton of fun. Writing comes easier and easier each day. I love it. :D

Actually, here's something that I wrote in creative writing. Let me know what you think of it!

Bring back a memory
A dream, a wish
Bring back a hope
Or a childhood kiss
Bring back a moment
From a time far away
Bring back the music
From a distant day
Bring back a feeling
To enrich the soul
Bring back a story
We already know
Bring back a thought
So fond and so deep
Bring back a dream
From a sleepless sleep
Bring back a want
A need, a desire
Bring back a passion
Burning bright as a fire
Bring back a love
Beautiful and sure
Bring back a home
Warm, cozy, secure
Bring back a life
Too precious to lose
Bring back a something,
Whatever you choose.


I also got headshots taken at school... I'm not sure how they look. :D Let me know what you think! I love hearing people's opinions. Comment lots and lots!!!

Walk Tall

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
Isaiah 41:10

This has become one of my favorite scriptures. So much so that I carry it with me everywhere I go: in my wallet, in a note written to me by one of my best friends in a time of frustration and need. This is my testimony: He lives. He loves me, He loves you. And He is never far away.

Walk Tall

1. Right now I have a prayer deep within my heart,
A prayer for each of you there is a special part.
That you remember who you are and He who lives above.
Please seek for Him and live His way; you’ll feel His love.


Chorus:
Walk tall, you’re a daughter, a child of God.
Be strong—please remember who you are.
Try to understand, You’re part of His great plan.
He’s closer than you know—reach up, He’ll take your hand.


2. Long before the time you can remember,
Our Father held you in His arms so tender.
Those loving arms released you as He sent you down to earth.
He said, “My child, I love you. Don’t forget your great worth.”

Chorus

3. This life on earth we knew would not be easy.
At times we lose our way—His plan we may not see.
But please remember always—please—that you are not alone.
He’ll take your hand. He loves you! He will guide you home.

It's true. I know it is. I know it with all of my heart. He's always there. All we have to do is reach for Him.
I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Whew.

Holy Busy Week, Batman!!

Goodness gracious, can you say crazy? Cuz that's what my week has been. It's finally Saturday, and I've still got a busy busy day ahead of me, if everything works out right. I have to try on a dress for Stephanie, and Scott's randomly decided that he wants to go paintballing, so we'll see what happens! Plus I still have a box and a half to finish for work, I'm thinking I'll finish those Monday.

I swear, school is eating my paycheck. So many fees...

Football game last night. We lost, but it was seriously a good game. The Warriors definitely put up a good fight! I'm proud of our team. After the game, James, Dakota, and I went to Leatherbyes and got some yummy ice cream treats. It was HUMONGOUS!!! We shared it, and by the time we finished we were all thuroughly sick of ice cream. But it was still yummy. :D

*sigh* I haven't been on the computer much at all lately, I suppose that's what school is. Less time to waste, more time to work, right? Speaking of work... I have to clean my room before Steph gets here!

Much love!
