Something my friend wrote....

i feel at times in my life that i am invisble
i am nt seen as who i am
so why look at me at all
i would walk these lands as a ghost
i would bring just to the to the unjust
i would care for those who cant for themselves
i would watch over my loved
and appear and lay down my furry on the ones who would think of putting them in harms way
i would make them feel there own doings and add a lil rage of my own
i think to myself how life would be easier if no one seen you
but everything has to be balenced
the down fall of this would be you are never seen again by those who love you and need you
for you are only a ghost
invisible to all but need to see
i will protect
i will love
i will bleed
i will hold
whoever need it
for i am only human
and to be human is to have error
i may want to be a ghost at times
but i have other plans

Yeah...it's been a while. School has been brutal, handbells are hard with only eight ringers (affectionately known as dingalings), and I recently got myself a boyfriend. AND I still haven't figured out how to get rid of this scroll-box thingy. Suggestions?? Anyway, prayers for my boyfriends mom, please. She is in the hospital with some illness that I'm not even going to try to spell, and it's stressing everybody out.

I recently started going to a group called LifeTeen. It's a lot more fun than I thought it would be. Do any of you guys belong to LifeTeen? Last night we 'cleaned out our spiritual ears' , and the week before that, I was the only one brave enough to try the mystery meat(it was barbeque chicken, btw). Hmm...not a whole lot of other stuff going on right now. I'm sitting here, in my pj's, at 9:21 in the morning, and I haven't even bothered to correct my vision today (e.g. put in my contacts, or wear my glasses), so I'm half blind. *random question* Does anyone else have trouble with chemistry?? I finally got around to getting a myspace, too, so look me up. Message me and I'll give you my name.

L8r,

Yes, I know I need to update. Firstly, I passed my karate belt test with flying colors (after a miserable failure that I really don't want to talk about) and have been promoted to a third degree brown belt. Secondly, check out The Society of Cool Bloggers(homeschoolblogger.com/TheSociety), they're having a contest.Thirdly, my boyfriend came over this afternoon, like five minutes after I got home, so I was freaking out. Explaination: I was at piano lessons this morning, and my boyfriend called and asked if he and his sister could come over and hang out. Well, I'd had a hard time waking up this morning, so I wasn't going to bother putting my contacts in, because I'm still pretty new at it. So I get home from piano, and my sister Erin says, 'Billy and Jess are coming over.' and I was like, 'what???' and she said it again, and I was like, 'why??' and she was like 'they have stuff to do with their grandma, so Billy and Jess are gonna hang out while that gets done.' and I was like, 'oh.' (I told you I wasn't very awake!!) so I rush downstairs to put my contacts in, because I didn't get around to doing it this morning, remember? So I get the first one in, and I'm just working on putting the second one in, and the doorbell rings, and I was like, 'whatever, I'm wearing glasses' (because the left contact tends to give me trouble) so I took the right one out and ran up the stairs (I prefer saying I walked quickly, but I ran) and they were there. So I haven't eaten lunch yet...and it's like, 1:30...which isn't unusual for some people...but seeing as I normally eat at 11, it's kind of weird.

I can hear the high school marching band practicing a block away. We drove by on the way to piano, and all the guys had their shirts off. I was like, 'Mom, I think I'm going to take a walk later.' lol

I am incredibly tired and I don't know why.

~Faith~

Why, Why, Why
do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting dead?

Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they know there is not enough money?

Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?

Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?

Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?

Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?

Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

Whose idea was it to put an 'S' in the word 'Lisp'?

If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?

Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?

Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?

How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?

When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, 'It's all right?' Well, it isn't all right, so why don't we say, 'That hurt, you stupid idiot?'

Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?

And my FAVORITE......


The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.

Yeah...I got these from gratitude's blog...I thought they were funny.

Let's see...I failed my karate test, I am incredibly sore from all the excercise, and I learned the hard way that if you want to do a right shoulder roll, you can't be left side forward. I kind of realized that as I hit the ground.

Random question of the week...What are your plans for this weekend?

~Faith~

Yeah, I changed my template...because I got bored with my other one. I'll probably be tweaking it here and there...like I don't like the scroll box thingy, so if anyone can tell me how to get rid of it, that would be great. I already got rid of the dashed lines, because they give me headaches 

Anyway, it's going to be a busy week. I have tomorrow off, which is good because I need to practice my karate. Wednesday I'm going to karate class(my last one) and to a birthday party(don't worry, I'll definitely shower in between LoL). Thursday is my piano lessons, and my karate belt test. Friday is the next dance, and Saturday is when I'm going to get together with my Confirmation class and put on a skit (there's actually a lot more to that story, I'll tell you in a minute) and then we go to church. I'm going to sleep in on Sunday, and then start babysitting on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings for the summer. AND I have to get organized for VBS, which is like, only two weeks away.

Okay, so my friend Veronica from Confirmation class was in a really (and I mean REALLY) bad car accident the day before Valentine's, and she's almost completely recovered, which is nothing short of a miracle, because it was the kind of accident where you look at the car and you think "Anyone in that car is dead" and, seriously, taking into consideration that she was in a coma for three weeks, she is looking fantabulous. Anyway, our Confirmation group got really close during our time as a class, and we've kept in close contact since, so when we found out that Veronica was in the ICU and doing poorly, we really pulled together. Well, about a week before she was released from the hospital, our teacher Mr. Perry decided that it would be great if we had something of a class reunion. He has a class of current Confirmandi (sp?) that will be going on a retreat on Saturday, so he invited all of us up there to put on this skit that we did on OUR Confirmation retreat for Veronica. He will ask Veronica if she will take her part as narrator (She doesn't know we're up there, it's kind of a surprise party) and we will do our skit.

Okay, so reading this over (checking for spelling errors, which wouldn't kill some people I could name) I noticed I use A LOT of parenthesis. I guess it's because I have many thoughts. Oh, well.
