I feel the music. It's in my blood, running through my veins. It feels good. http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/ en-us Homeschool Blogger Sat, 18 Oct 2008 14:02:01 -0500 Sat, 18 Oct 2008 14:02:01 -0500 With shards of glass, and knives you've tried to numb the pain you feel inside. The scars upon your wrists reveal you've forgotten what it's like to feel...   I wrote this poem after Chris, my youth group leader, preached a sermon on cutting. I've known a lot of cutters, so if you happen to be one or have even considered harming yourself, talk to someone you trust and pray to God that he'll give you strength. I don't know why, but I felt like I needed to post this. Much love -Jazlynn http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/606687/ Sat, 18 Oct 2008 14:02:01 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/606687/ Hey, I haven't posted in a while so, here goes... Basketball is cool. We've really improved since we started. I think there's a lot of potential on our team, and if I can keep Nan from killing anyone, we'll be alright. ;-) I've started going to school at Grace Academy and I like it a lot. I get to be lead singer of a pretty cool christian rock band. We're doing "Unbreakable" by Fireflight, which is a little difficult, but I love the challenge. I just hope I can pull it off in our concert in November... As ya'll prolly knew, Danny-boy went to India September 22, and is coming back Oct. 6th. I miss him and am really looking forward to seeing him again! I've talked to him almost everyday since he left, all except yesterday when I was cleaning an older lady's house. He called while I was vacuuming. That completely, well, vacuumed. Guess what? I went to my friend Stuffy's house, and I ate my weight in potato chips! Oh, and dip! And ice cream! It was amazing! Well, I don't know what else to say so I'll say this: Enjoy long walks. Especially when they are taken by people who annoy you. -Fred Allen l8er sk8er! http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/600123/ Sat, 4 Oct 2008 13:51:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/600123/ Everybody's Fool: Evanescence Perfect by nature, Icons of self indulgence Just what we all need, more lies about a world that never was and never will be Have you no shame, don't you see me? You know you've got everybody fooled Look here she comes now, Bow down and stare in wonder Oh, how we love you No flaws when you're pretending But now i know she never was and never will be You don't know how you've betrayed me, and somehow you've got everybody fooled Without the mask, where will you hide? Can't find yourself lost in your lie  I know the truth now I know who you are and i don't love you anymore It never was and never will be You don't know how you've betrayed me and somehow you've got everybody fooled It never was and never will be You're not real and you can't save me Somehow now you're everybody's fool http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/588972/ Fri, 12 Sep 2008 10:07:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/588972/ Hey everyone! FtF was pretty cool. I was a sleepy person after it was over though... Hey, guess what? I HAD AN EYE APPOINTMENT YESTERDAY! Woo-hoo! Plus I got my eyes dialated! My pupils were huge-mungus! And every speck of light was killing my eyes, so I had to wear sunglasses everywhere I went including Chik-fil-A, Wal-Mart, and the FS Library. I bet a lot of people thought I was blind. Ha! Well, turns out my eyes are not so great. I have to wear glasses for reading, driving, working on the computer, and texting. The glasses I picked out are spec-nificent! (I made that one up the other day!) Oh, but the glasses are black and square and totally nerd-fabulous! Or "geek chic", whatever you prefer.I don't actually get the glasses til Tuesday cause they had to order my lenses. I don't want glasses, but I know it will be a lot easier when I have them. I won't have to squint to read and junk. You know what? David Cook is beautiful. Just thought I'd throw that in there... Hey! Me and Hannah are gonna change my template all awsome! I'm thinking black and white... Plus we are gonna redo my playlist. I'm thinking hard rock and emo-screamo. And some grunge. It will be amazing. Trust me. Well, I suppose I shall retire. Farewell brethren! Or, whatever you know... http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/581483/ Thu, 28 Aug 2008 09:15:01 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/581483/ Hey. I'm very sick at the moment. Basically, I've had a fever since Monday and I went to the doctor Wednesday and they drew blood and stuff. They are gonna run tests to see what is wrong with me because as of now no one knows. It is  a mystery! Oooh! But they said it is possibly salmonella or escheria coli, otherwise known as E. Coli. Well, I'm bored, I'm starving (I'm flat broke I got no cash to spend. Sell all my books for front row tickets to Dave Matthews band...). Sorry, I love that song... So, I'm only allowed to eat things that are tan cause I'm on the BRAT diet (bread, rice, applesause, toast) and I may have to occational graham cracker. Yummo. Dude, if I have to eat watch another stupid sitcom, I'm gonna go insane. All I've done for four days is slept and watched TV. No church, no Ripstick, no swimming, no burning stuff. My mom won't let me do anything! And I'm hackin mad! Cause I can't go to  HSF tomorrow! Dang! What else has been going on? Oh! Absolutely nothing, that's what! And I'm sick and tired of it! Well, I guess I should go... I got a lotta stuff to do you know... Peace! Around the world! For generations! (Don't ask...) http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/568208/ Thu, 31 Jul 2008 16:48:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/568208/ I can't do a real post right now, so I'm just gonna put one of my fave poems on here. Hope ya'll like it! The Fool's Prayer by: Edward Rowland Sill The royal feast was done; the King Sought some new sport to banish care, And to his jester cried: "Sir Fool, Kneel now, and make for us a prayer!"   The jester doffed his cap and bells, And stood the mocking court before; They could not see the bitter smile Behind the painted grin he wore.   He bowed his head, and bent his knee Upon the Monarch's silken stool; His pleading voice arose: "O Lord, Be merciful to me, a fool!   "No pity, Lord, could change the heart From red with wrong to white as wool; The rod must heal the sin: but Lord, Be merciful to me, a fool!   "'T is not by guilt the onward sweep Of truth and right, O Lord, we stay; 'T is by our follies that so long We hold the earth from heaven away.   "These clumsy feet, still in the mire, Go crushing blossoms without end; These hard, well-meaning hands we thrust Among the heart-strings of a friend.   "The ill-timed truth we might have kept-- Who knows how sharp it pierced and stung? The word we had not sense to say-- Who knows how grandly it had rung!   "Our faults no tenderness should ask. The chastening stripes must cleanse them all; But for our blunders -- oh, in shame Before the eyes of heaven we fall.   "Earth bears no balsam for mistakes; Men crown the knave, and scourge the tool That did his will; but Thou, O Lord, Be merciful to me, a fool!"   The room was hushed; in silence rose The King, and sought his gardens cool, And walked apart, and murmured low, "Be merciful to me, a fool!"   http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/558415/ Tue, 8 Jul 2008 18:43:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Jazlynn/558415/ I promise that I have pictures of vacation and church camp, but I can't post them until I get them to Emy, so in the meantime I thought I'd post about why I think that David Cook is amazing.  Enjoy.
