Ok, this isn't really newsworthy, but...

I'm going to church tonight!!! I know I do this every week, but this week I'm extra excited because I get to talk to Ms. Brown and figure out all the details for the girl's night we're having at the church. I can't wait to get this thing planned. It's going to be so much fun!! This is something I've wanted to do for a long time, and now the right time is finally here. I can't believe how much I'm looking forward to this! Anyway, I'm really excited and I just had to share it with someone. So I shared it with YOU! Don't you feel special???

BYL!!!

Finally!!!!!

Ok, for any of you who read my story or follow my story blog, I finally have a new post up. And it didn't take me any time at all to write. If you're reading, read on. There's only a few more chapters left before I finish the whole novel!!! Thanks to my wonderful readers and my great inspiration. (Megs, this would be you!) Anyway, I have to get ready for school, so I'll leave you with that.

BYL!

PS-I met the deadline!!! Megan didn't kill me!!!!!!

I LOST IT!!!

Yes...yes, I did. Guess what I lost! My writer's block!!! It's completely gone! I know now exactly what I'm going to write all the way up the end of the book. No, I can't tell you, silly, 'else it wouldn't be a surprise now would it?? The answer is no, it would not be a surprise anymore. That's why you got to go to my other site and look for yourself. Hehe...it'll be there soon.

Besides that, I want to apologize for my earlier post. It scared some people and I was just really depressed when I posted that. I didn't know what else I could say, but I wanted to post something, so I just posted that. But I'm all better now. God does some pretty incredible things in his spare time...this spare time being at about 1-2:00 in the morning while I'm trying my hardest to stop crying because I don't know what to do. I learned I'd much rather have him dry my tears then not cry in the first place. Sometimes you just gotta let it all out.

Waiting for Friday!! I can't wait for Dance class, seeing as that is the only time I get to dance with anyone, seeing as everyone in my family refused to dance the waltz with me...my school friends are not really much better. Something about it being "embarrasing"...oh well, their loss. I love my dance class.

School news is the next item on the agenda, I guess. Well, I got to feel all smartical today, cause I went over to Sara's house and I got to edit her English paper...(she's a college student)...yes, major confidence boost for me...plus, I got to go over and scare Mary so that she squealed! When is that not fun? Yeah...never.

The last thing I guess I can talk about is church. I've invited a couple of people to church in the last week...some aquaintances, some good friends (everyone could use a little Jesus) and I'm still waiting for a response from the majority of them.

And that's about it. I have to get back to my novel, lest Megan decide to kill me in her impatience...oh great, now I've given her an idea...and she scares me...She's clever...she could murder me and not leave a single piece of evidence...but the joke would be on her, cause if she killed me because I wouldn't write, I would never be able to write again and then the novel would never be finished and she would be sad...so HA, Megan...haha...jk

BYL!

Just...

She fooled all of her friends into thinking she's so strong
But she still sleeps with the light on
And she acts like it's all right on, as she smiles again
And her mother lies there sick with cancer
And her friends don't understand her
She's a question without answers
Who feels like falling apart.
She knows, she's so much more than worthless
She needs to find a purpose,
She wonders what she did to deserve this

She's calling out to you
This is a call, this is a call out
Cause everytime I fall down, I reach out to you
And I'm losing all control now
And my hazard signs are all out
I'm asking you to show me what this life is all about

Have you ever felt this way before
Cause I don't wanna hide here anymore
Take me to a place where nothing's wrong
And thanks for coming, shut the door
And they say some one out there sees us,
Well if you're real, then save me Jesus
Cause I've been this way for far too long
I wasn't meant to feel alone

She's calling out to you
This is a call, this is a callout
'Cause everytime I fall down, I reach out to you
And I'm losin all control now
And my hazard signs are all out
And I'm askin you to show me what this life is all about

Show me what this life is all about
Show me what this life is all about

There's really not much to say, is there?

My vewwy own KWIZ!!

Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow!!! Uh…no. I don’t think so. After the past three snow days, I was just about ready to go to school today…that is, until 6:00 this morning when I was mumbling something along the lines of, “Are you sure we don’t have a two hour delay??” So, yes. I’m weird like that. I’ve decided that I’m not even going to try not to be weird in my blog posts anymore. So be afraid…be very afraid. Nah, I’m not that bad.

In other news, I am having an awesome time at dance class, as always. We may or may not be learning the tango next class, I’m not sure, but I hope we do. Either way, I’m continuously learning new steps from Matt anyhow, because he’s in the recital.

In other, other news, I’m bored…haha…bet you couldn’t guess that, huh?? Sooooo, to cure my boredom, I have decided to make and fill in my own quiz!!…Mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! And so, without further adieu, my KWIZ!!!

What is a quote you think describes you? “I’m on a journey to discover who I am; I have yet to make a wrong turn” ~Rachel Coleman

What song lyrics describe you at your best? “Got the radio on/ My old blue jeans/And I’m wearin’ my heart on my sleeve/feelin’ lucky today/ got the sunshine/baby, tell me what more do I need/ and tomorrow’s just a mystery, oh yeah/ but that’s ok” Taylor Swift: Place in This World

At your worst? “Hold on, baby you’re losin’ it/The water’s high, you’re jumpin’ into it and/Letting go/And no one knows/That you cry, but you don’t tell anyone/That you might not be the golden one/And you’re tied together with a smile, but you’re comin’ undone” Taylor Swift: Tied Together With a Smile

What phrase do people say to you a lot? Sometimes I worry about you. (yes, this is very true…I’m not afraid to admit it)

Which family member are you closest to? Brother

Favorite type of music? Country

If you had a choice to look into the future, would you do it? No. If I saw something I didn’t like, I might do something to make it not happen and then I may look back one day and say, “Oh, I wish that had happ-…oh yeah…it was going to…” That would be horrible.

What’s your favorite color? Purple…but blue comes in a very close second

Do you have a secret? Doesn’t everybody??

What is your pet peeve? When you put someone down and then try to convince them that they aren’t worth anything to anyone else either.

Who is are your closest friends? Sara & Megan

What is your favorite thing to do? Hang out with my church friends and all mah homeschool homies!!(I’m not a homeschooler, but I have a LOT of friends who are.

Describe yourself in one word. Dreamer

What makes you feel small? When I’m trying my best and someone tells me it’s not good enough

What was your favorite childhood memory? I don’t have a lot that I remember, but I do distinctly remember my family’s weekly trip to Scott park. The one that sticks in my memory would have to be the time my mom taught me how to go all the way across the monkey bars. I was so happy. I then fell, hurt my knee, and my mommy kissed it and made it better! (I was five, I kiss was all I needed)

Do you keep a journal? My stories are my journal. If you read them, it’s not hard to tell what was happening when I wrote them

What’s your favorite after school snack? Pears, grapes, or celery with ranch dressing…this is what you get when you’re raised in a house where everything but produce has the word “Lite” on it.

What is something you’ve always wanted to try, but never did? Well for years, I had never eaten whipped cream strait from the can…I finally got around to that. Now I’m addicted…hehe…but, yeah, I don’t know…

Who was your first crush? Ah, the good old days of birthday cake and puppy love. I was four and there was a boy named David that I had basically known since I was born. (Our moms knew each other before that) We “dated” for a couple years and then we went our separate ways. I’ll keep the memories, though.

What are five things you couldn’t live without? God, Friends, Music, Stories, and Dancing…in that order

And that’s all for my KWIZ! Feel free to copy and paste it onto your own blog and fill in your own answers. See ya!

BYL!! (Blog Ya Later!!)
