Withdrawal? (4-27-09)

I think I'm having friend-withdrawal. Haha... A couple of my really close friends are gone for two weeks and I miss them SO MUCH! I don't know what I am going to do these next to weeks... :( I've nearly cried like three to five times during school and actually have cried once I got home. who knows how these next couple weeks will go.... but I'm counting down; (I guess it's a bit under two weeks...) 11 days more! so many :(
*sigh.*
and to top it off... I feel like they don't like me so much anymore. maybe I'm just overreacting or something but.... I just feel like they like my friends more than I (even the ones they used to hate they're clicking with now) and so that doesn't really make things any better. I guess I'm just frustrated and this withdrawal thing is making it all worse.

anywho.

So after school today I met with my mentor, and we went to Caribou Coffee. that was prettty sweet! Got my mind off of my friends for a bit.... and onto God and his amazingness. (He is quite amazing. really!)

Anywho, I better go... do some homework :\ maybe it will help get my mind off them some more... I feel like I miss so many people right now! ish. I just need to talk to them..... all of them....

*sigh.*

Weekend... 4-25-09

I have a pretty packed couple days this weekend! Well mostly just yesterday and today, Sunday I'm not up to much (that I know of).

So yesterday I had an indoor soccer game! whoo. We won, but barely. The other team didn't have any subs, and they were awesome so we probably would have lost if they had had subs. haha :) But I was getting super frustrated because our coach wouldn't play some of us! Well really just like three of us: one of them being me. He just rotated in the really good players, and it was really frustrating. Oh well.

Then today! I just got back from a Student Leadership Meeting... On the way home we stopped at a store quick, and then my sister and her husband are coming up to visit so we can celebrate birthdays! (my sisters have really close birthdays; the 23 and 24 of April.) So that will be fun... Then later today I have another indoor game! So a pretty busy day; thought I'd take some free time to blog since I didn't have time to yesterday.

Sunday I don't really have much going on- pretty much church and homework. Hopefully I'll have some time in there to clean (whoo! fun!) and maybe kick around a soccer ball a bit or something. Who knows!

So yeah... my weekend! Better head off now....!

wow. just wow. 4-23-09

Wow! God is like crazy. I've just been realizing that lately.

Just now I was eating ice cream and watching the last glimpses of the sun as it finished its descent below the gently waving tree tops. Wind blew all around me, teasing my hair and kissing my skin. I couldn't help but praise God for his glorious creation! The past few days have been so amazingly beautiful, the weather has been just gorgeous. Though I was expecting to do some dancing in the rain tonight, it cleared right up and I had this awesome time instead (though I still wish that I could have gotten some rain time in).

"For his invisible attributes, namely, his ternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, ion the things that have been made. So they are without excuse." -Romans 1:20

Bad Day 4-21-09

Ick. So today was a pretty bad day for me. I don't know why it even went that bad... I mean, there are several things that made it bad that I can point out, but somehow when I look back it just seems worse.
But yeah. I woke up this morning and felt sick, and woke up with a headache; which always makes your day worse (or at least mine). Then math just really frustrated me today, and I'm not really sure why. Sometimes math just gets to me. Then I got really stressed out during science over a couple things... like, majorly. Yeahh... drama and health were sweet though, especially health (cuz we're learning about the brain and I LOVE that stuff!).... After school, though, I had to stay after for math. ick. Now I'm suuuuper hungry. And there isn't anything to eat, because my parents made something for dinner I don't like and we don't have anything else to eat around (as usual); super frustrating. Blah.
And I'm not looking forward to tonight either.... Seems like it'll be pretty suckish. I really wanted to go to my friend's softball game, but my other friend didn't want to go so I didn't... Because I didnt' want to go alone. And then I'm not going to have anyone to talk with on IM tonight so I'll be lonely.... And I still have a headache, am really hungry, and tired; so I don't want to do my homework. Especially since the majority of it is math, and I hate math. (except for a few parts of it, like sine cosine and tangent)

So anyway. I'm guessing ya'll had GREAT fun reading my rantings about my bad day... I just really needed to get it out though, and (as I said before) I don't have anyone to IM to it about... haha

God bless!

Baseball Game! 4-20-09

Hey! So I just got back from a baseball game.... the first one I've seen from my new school! whoo! It was SO cold though... and raining sporadically, very strong wind.... brr! haha. So my two friends and I were huddled up in a mass of blankets... which was pretty fun :)
I have no clue who won though! I can't figure it out. and it seemed like the last part of the game went by really fast. Or maybe I just don't know baseball.... There are 9 innings, right? Oh maybe I'm making a total fool of myself... but I thought there were 9! And they told us at 5 innings and then it went by so fast after that! Wow... it was odd. But anywho.
Despite the cold, it was SO fun! :D

todayy.... 4-19-09

so, today was pretty awesome! well, at times. At other times... not so much.

Well, I spent the night at my friend's house on Saturday night... then on Sunday, we went to Sunday School and then back to her house to get ready for our indoor soccer game and then head to a game that was going on before ours, to see a bunch of our friends play. Which was fun.... but sadly, we lost our match :( This was my first loss since I had played (I missed the first two games because I was on vacation)! And I was pretty angry with myself. I did not do very well. I had like three shots that were practically open, just the goalie in the goal, and I could only hit like the surrounding area around the goal. gr. And then I gave the other team a goal because I couldn't hit the ball with my foot (bad hand-foot coordination I guess... haha... I tend to miss hitting the ball a lot. I'm very uncoordinated). So anyway, I was not happy about that. At all. (I'm EXTREMELY hard on myself.)

But after the game I got to be with my BROTHER (who finally got back) and one of my sister's and her husband! so that was awesome! Only for a little while though, because my sister and her husband had to get back (they live about an hour from our house).

After that my mom had to get something with her phone fixed, so I went with and did my homework in the car (about a 30-45 minute drive, one way) and when she was done with that we went to TARGET! And I got a bunch of stuff for chapel in school (and just to wear for the heck of it! I love dressing up)... I got a dress and two skirts, plus a tank top... I'm so excited to wear them! haha :)

So now I'm just hanging out, finishing up some homework, IMing my friend, and blogging! What a wonderful weekend :)

God Bless, and thanks for reading!

Bolt! 4/18/09

Oh my gosh, so I just watched the movie Bolt... it was terrific! I totally loved it! I think it might be added to my list of favorite movies :)

Some people might think it's just "a little-kid movie" but it was SWEET! I don't care if it was :) and it was so funny. I felt like a bit of a dork, because I was sitting there laughing in my room and I was all alone... but it was just so funny :)

Anyway, just wanted something to blog about. So there is a bit of something ;)

OH YEAH! I'm also SO excited: my brother is getting back today!!! hopefully at least. But anyway, yeah! He's been gone for like 7 or 9 months... and now he's getting back! yay! I'm so excited to finally see him again :D :D :D

God is Good

Wow. God is truly amazing.... I have been really realizing this anew lately, like the last couple days. He is so good, and I guess I forget that a lot. He's always gonna be there to provide for me, and offer his protection... his hope... his love... his forgiveness...

And I can't believe He'd do for me what He did.... sending Jesus as a sacrifice for ME? wow. Jesus dying on the cross (like the worst death EVER!) for ME? wow. how could he love me this much?

God is good. To put it simply. So good I can't even begin to comprehend it! I love Him so much! He provides for me through all situations. I don't need to explain to him or make excuses. He knows me so well- better than I know me! He did make me after all.

I love you Lord!

First Entry... 4/17/09

Ah! My first blog! And my first entry therein.... Exciting! haha :)

Well, where to begin. I guess I'll explain why I really started blogging in the first place.
I guess it could trace back to when I was younger. I saw people blogging in movies (such as Raise Your Voice... at least I think that was the one) and always thought it seemed like a sweet thing to do, and toyed with the idea of starting a blog. I guess I just never got around to it... Then recently, my friend Lexi found this wonderful place called blogspot.com and made herself a blog. From there you can probably guess what happened: she showed hers to me, then urged me to make one myself, and that combined with my memories of longing to have on in the past all added up to me finally making one!
And it took me probably two hours to finally come up with a name for it! haha. I finally threw a bunch of ideas around with Lexi, and she chose one for me... The one that I actually had just said as a joke! (since it seemed like a take-off of her site name, Simply Lexi).

So there is that. The (probably not-so-interesting) history of how I got a blog!
well, for now....
I'm out!
