Soooo I am rather excited since Thanksgiving and my b-day is coming up!! I will be officially 14 tomorrow!! Yay! I am so thankful that my birthday is in Autumn. It mostly is so beautiful the week that my birthday(s) is/are on: Sunny but very cold, trees that finally lose all of their leaves, the smell of fresh baked goods that are for Thanksgiving Day, a beautiful Sunset!! And best of all if lucky enough: Snow!!! I just love it! You cannot disagree with me that Autumn is the BEST time of year! So wonderful that I took the time to capitalize the A in the word Autumn! So yeah, I am truly grateful! :)
In my church my pastor decided awhile ago that he would make an Early Service and a Later Service. The Early Service starts at
So has anybody on here ever read the book The Shack? I did and I would have to say it was SO GOOD! I loved it!! Gave me a better understanding of a lot of things and it helped me know my Lord better in a personal way! :) It’s beautiful! So yeah, if you have never read it then I recommend you to do so! :D
Well that is all I have to write down for now!! TTYL! :D
God bless,
Sierr@!
One night I dreamed a dream.
I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
one belonging to me and one to my Lord.
When the last scene of my life shot before me
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
There was only one set of footprints.
I realized that this was at the lowest and saddest times of my life.
This always bothered me and I questioned the
Lord about my dilemma.
"Lord, You told me when I decided to follow You,
You would walk and talk with me all the way.
But I'm aware that during the most troublesome
times of my life
there is only one set of footprints.
I just don't understand why, when I need You the most,
You leave me."
He whispered, “My precious child, I love you and will never leave you, never, ever,
during your trials and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."
This would have to be one of my most favorite poems of all times! It's called "Footprints" by Margaret Fishback Powers. I found this poem inside one of my Journals when I was looking through it. Ever since then (which hasn't been that long) I have been trying to memorize it! :) It does give some warmth to me when ever I am in my lowest and saddest times of MY life! :) Jesus is amazing! 
So how is everyone doing?
I am doing exceptionally well! VERY busy though: School that consumes most of my day, chores that never seem to end, food to make, and reading that needs to be done! But good thing I enjoy most of those stuff on that list! :) The only down side is that.... I am never seems to be able to get any time for drawing in! :( Oh well... I know that life is bound to go back to normality! :)
So lately I have had this desire to.... I guess you can say minister.... on youtube :P Why on youtube? Well let’s just say I am a little girl who limited on where she can go... for I live in the big country! I have had this small passion to ....like preach about stuff and help people! (With some help of my elders of course!!) I guess really all I need to do is write down my postings, recite them on a video camera and edit of course and THEN post them! I'm actually really excited! But can you guys do a favor for me? That would be Pray for me to get some MORE motivation to do this! :) Thank you! :D
So I am completely excited for Thanksgiving and Christmas! Mostly Christmas though. I can't wait till me and my family decorate the house, and put up the Christmas Tree, make delicious cookies and cakes, drink hot drinks, ect..! The fuzzy warm feelings that I am so yearning for!! :P And Plus! My brother Richard and is fiancé will be here to celebrate with us Jesus' B-day! :D God has truly blessed me with an awesome big family! :) Well that is all I can write down for now! :)
God Bless,
Sierr@

Hello again my peoples! :)
So for the last two weeks I have been watching the movie "One Night with the King" every night. I say it has to be my favorite movie of all times! I love the story of Esther! She is the like....idk the most awesome girl in the world! She's my role model! xD So me watching that movie every night it gives me this passion to.... idk.... I wanna be like her!! xD So after I watched it for the first time in a while it made me want to read my bible; All of it. But the problem with me is that...I start reading it from the beginning till I finish the first book (which is Genesis as you all probably know lol) but then I never continue! It drives me crazy....I never seem to get motivated to progress in it after I read that Story! So I finally became serious and found a One Year Bible…Basically it’s a book where it plans out what you read per day and a year later you’re done with reading it! So yeah I started it 2 weeks ago! 
So far the Bible has been more interesting then I ever thought it would be! xD I love that Book! <3
So my room has been going great! Tomorrow my dad said that I will be able to paint it! I am sooooo excited! Right now as we speak I am room sick! I miss my own personal space xD And plus I haven’t really been drawing a whole lot cause my room was my arts area! It is the only room I feel comfortable drawing in…oddly enough. :S But yeah!! I’m really happy!
Since I have 4 walls total in my room I decided to paint two of the smaller walls Dark Blue (Title: Dancing Sea) and the other 2 walls (which are the bigger ones) Lime Green (title: Glass Bottle). It’s going to look really pretty!!! I can’t wait ill its all done!! :D
Well that’s all I can write for today!
Peace out!
God Bless,
Sierr@

Now....where should I start........Well My summer was pretty Good...Didn't do a whole lot except Chill xD Last July my dad said that he wanted to work on my room! Since it's been on his list for like a couple of years xD So I spent some time cleaning it, putting all my stuff in boxes, washing my walls and yeah! :D Lot of work but that’s over with now! xD Right now my dad is just repairing parts of my room and putting some installation between the walls cause....for the past ..oh say ....13 years my room has been an Ice box in the winter and a sauna in the Summer xD So yeah...its gonna be different this year :D Which I am happy for!!
This weekend or next week my dad said that I will be able to prime the walls and after that Then I can paint!!!!!!!!!!! The colors I have decided are Lime Green and Dark Blue! 3 of my walls will be the Green and only one wall will be the Blue!!! And for my carpet it will be ...Purple!! :D its gonna be a change compared to right now which is White walls and tan carpet xD But yeah!~ that’s the big Project this year for me! :) I'll post pictures after its all done!

Well that is all for now!!
Next time <33333

There are only nine people on HSB at 8:30 in the morning. Who knew?
Yesterday, the marching band was in the state fair parade, and then we went to the band shell competition at, well, the state fair. You don't get to find out how we did until the end of the post, though, so be patient and read the whole thing.
We loaded up the truck with all of our equipment on Friday afternoon. It took us FOREVER. Then we bussed down to Pueblo(where the state fair was) and ate pizza. Then we had a pool party, during which I almost drowned, because I jumped in where it said five feet, and I'm five four, so I thought I'd be okay, but I forgot to breathe before I jumped in, and I breathed in a bunch of water instead and then I started freaking out, which is not a good thing to do when you're drowning, and then Chris was like 'you okay?' and I was shook my head and he and Mackenzie dragged me over to shallower water. So yeah, other than the near-death experience, it was great. That pool has A LOT of chlorine in it, by the way. Y'know, in case you needed to know that.
Then the pool closed and me and Mackenzie and Julia(she plays trumpet) were the last ones out. Then we went and changed into dry stuff, then we went outside because it was nice out and we were bored, and everybody was playing football, and Ethan found a beetle and I was trying to pick it up, and everybody was like, 'oh yeah, that's the kind that bites,' or, 'that one's a stinkbug'. So I finally caught the beetle, and I got bored of carrying it around, so I started offering it to people, and Trey was like, 'Free beetle? I'll take it.' And then he tried to drop it down my back, but he lost the beetle before he could.
Then Justin and Caleb and Danielle and Lauren and I hung out in the band room for a while(we were staying in Pueblo County HS overnight, so we could get an early start the next morning). It's like a shrine in there. I mean, like trophies, from wall to wall, and hanging from the ceiling. It was amazing. There's also a hangout place towards the back of the band room, with couches and stuff. Caleb and Danielle sat on one couch, and Justin sat down on another one, and you know how sometimes you lean over the arm of the couch()even though your mom tells you not to) and end up laying down? I did that. On top of Justin. Then I made Lauren sit down and be my pillow. Then she got bored and layed down on the back of the couch with her head on Justin's shoulder (yep. Justin got squished), and we made Ethan (not the one I dated) be my pillow. Then I realized my hair was still wet from the pool party and I was told Ethan he was going to have a wet spot on his lap from my hair and people were going to think he wet his pants. Then we had to go to the gym for bedtime.
Bedtime was....well, bedtime. They all had to turn their cell phones in and several people didn't. I know Mackenzie and Mikayla(sp?) didn't. And I'm starting to think I might have to break this post up into smaller posts, because the first four hours are taking up and entire page on here, and nobody really wants to read more than that at one time. So you'll have to wait to hear if and what we won.

Alrighty then. Let me try to sum up what's been going on since the last time I blogged. When was the last time I blogged?? I don't remember either. *looks it up*
Oh.
Oops.
Sorry about that. That was a long time ago. Anyway this is what's shaking in the Rockies.
I joined the marching band(more on that later)
I'm getting my organ lessons.
My big sister moved out(finally)
We buried my grandpa's ashes in Missouri, next to his brother...or close to his brother...or something.
In order of importance and...well...the order I thought them in. Maybe I should keep more up to date with this stuff, but I'm busy. I don't know if anyone even reads this anymore.
Anywho. About marching band. I play in the pit, which basically means I play all the stuff you can't march around on the field with. Example: the marimba. And the gong. Can you imagine a marching gong? What a pain to haul around. I joined marching band because my friend Noel and the band director, Mr. Bell talked me into it. Plus there was this cute guy. Tuba player, very tall, kinda nerdy. So I joined the pit, where I met drumline. Drumline consists of two tenors(aka quads) three(somtimes four) snares, and four bass drums. The tenors are Travis and Kody-Travis is THE cutest guy in band and I personally think he looks like a greek god. He is also percussion leader, meaning he gets to boss us around whenever Todd or Mr. Bell isn't around. The snares are Trey, Keith, and Clint. Trey is head of the snares, Keith is...well...Keith, and Clint has amazing two-tone hair. The basses are Caleb, Scottie, Justin, and Corey. I don't really have a lot to say about any of them. not that I don't like them-I give Justin a hug every day-I just don't know them as well as I know the others.
In pit we have junior Mackenzie(our fearless leader), senior Mary, freshie Mike, and seventh grader Chris. Chris also plays with the snares occasionally. Oh, and senior me.
So, I joined marching band for a guy. Yeah, whatever, it's still really fun. And there's plenty of drama to go around. Last year, Trey and Allie(she plays flute) were dating, and Ethan(that tuba I told you about earlier) liked Allie. Trey and Allie broke up over the summer, and Ethan didn't find out until he was going out with me. Well, he dumped me so he could date Allie, and I was okay with it because Clint was kind of flirting with me at the time. Then Ethan and Allie broke up, because apparently it was 'awkward' (I thought anytime you started dating someone, it was awkward, but whatever) and Clint decided HE liked Allie. And now Allie's checking Trey out again, and Ethan's dating Mikayla(sp?) the clarinetist (there's also a trumpetist named Mikayla), which is a whole different story that I'm kind of scared to find out, and Clint's ignoring me, and I'm ignoring him. AND it's only the third week since school started.
This is getting waaaay too long, so I'm gonna cut it off here and get back to you when I can.
~Dream big or you'll never get anywhere~

So I deleted my other blog because it was old and stupid. And with the very few entries that I wrote reflect a person I don't think I am today. So ya.
Anyways a little about myself:
I am 15 years old, my life is relatively boring, but you life is what you make it, so I make it boring apparently.
I waste tons of time playing computer and xbox.... you know there is a saying, that in effect, says that you do not waste time, but time wastes you. No, don’t think waste as in drunk. xd I started school really early this year because in like 3 weeks I am leaving to go visit my nephew and brother (ex-brother in law, but I call still him a brother) for a week. Then me and my older brother, who is getting out of the army, are going to take a cross country road trip back home. So that should be fun. I like reading the teachings of buhhda from time to time mainly his quotes though. I am a Christian by definition. So ya... my social life if that’s what you want to call, is practically no existent so I don't do sports or anything like that, though I wouldn't mind doing football.
I slept in today. till like 12pm. I went to bed at 1 am in the morning. so i do not know what is wrong with me. maybe i was tired. I need to exaust myself today. I think i will do tons of runnning and some hard chores till i practically drop. That should do the trick.
Later. Jacob
