Fill-in-the-blank-Friday

1. The most spontaneous thing I've ever done was...hmm this is rather hard, maybe when I took a picture with the painted car... or when I brought a cat to a white elephant give away... or maybe when I jumped from a rope several times into alligator infested waters (okay this may be an exaggeration, but there were alot of alligators there...) when I was like 9... I think the cat thing is the most spontaneous that I can think of, because we went on that alanta ebay website thingy and found free kittens, then drove to athens to pick it up...it was adorable and really sweet BTW (this means by the way, I know this because I'm intelligent)... and then we drove to like 5 craft stores in athens untill we found a chinese box large enough to house a cat... and then we brought it to the white elephant thingy...


2. The best gift I've ever received was the gift that Jesus Christ gave to me when He died on the cross, the gift of love. The gift of giving me what I don't deserve and of saving me from what I do deserve...what we all deserve, Hell... But thanks to Jesus Christ I will be prasing it and raising it in Heaven...
                    ***To learn more about this wonderful gift and how you can recieve it this holiday        season please visit Jesus's word... The B-I-B-L-E...and make a toll-free call to 1(800) HOLY- SPIRIT... or just as me... :)
3. A time that I was truly and genuinely surprised was my surprise sort-of birthday party... some of my friends came to zaxby's to hang out with me and I thought it was just a coincidence that they were there...maybe not... :)


4. I can't leave the house without my clothes on...honestly I feel just werid... I can definatly leave without my phone, I am NOT attacted... maybe a not so obvious one would be that I cant leave without all my plug-ins being unplugged.

Bible study friend run-down- day one!

 I officially declare today Bible-study appreciation week. This week I will introduce you to my wonderful best friends, who so conveniently happen to be in my Bible study, how ironic. They happen to be some pretty great people, who deserve some elaboration and appreciation and consideration. More often than not our friends are under appreciated. Yes this is the preamble to the story, it was useful, wasn't it Lindsey?

So it seems fair and right to start it of with a biography of our amazing leader, Lindsey Carter, who just so happens to be an amazing blogger, way better than myself (I know its hard to believe right?) so go look at her blog, NOW, well maybe you can read this post first. a-heart-abandoned.blogspot.com

These are the reasons I love Lindsey and you should love her to...

1. She is probably the nicest, most sympathetic, caring person you will ever meet. She will always look at the positives in you, no matter how many negatives there are. I'm not sure she's ever met a person that she didn't care about in some way/shape/form.

2. She is crafty. She has taught me all I know about flower-making, fabric shopping, card-making, journal-making, blogging, and font/sign making that my little crafty heart could desire. And just as a little side note- pretty much everything awesome you see/ have seen on my blog she has done for me or taught me with patient instruction how to do, I am not a computer-savvy person, not at all.

3.She is real with me, for any of you who don't know us, which really isn't any of you, but anyways... Lindsey is 23, graduated college, I am fifteen, 2 years away from graduating high school, there is an 8 year difference... Although as Micayla once informed us, Lindsey and I both look 18, so its all good. But my point is, most people with an 8-year difference in age, not to mention pretty much polar place in life, aren't friends with each other, much less have thing in common. However, through all the differences in circumstance, we manage to be really close friends.  Lindsey and I can talk about husbands, houses, kids, college, friends, God, and food, anything and everything...and she doesn't for a second treat me like a little kid, she treats me like a friend.

4. Most importantly, She LOVES God. I know that God gave her to me as a friend right when I needed it, I can honestly say that if He hadn't given her to me as my best-friend at that crucial time when I needed her, I would not be anywhere close to the person I am today. I see in her the person I want to be when I grow up. She teaches me how to be a friend by being my friend. For all the legends out there, I know I hog her sometimes and I'm sorry, but you understand why :).  

Love you Lindsey!!

Confessions of a habitual sentimentalist

Recently I have had to come to terms with my materialism/sentimentalism... for 2 reasons....

1. This one is more devastating... When I was thirteen, my dad gave me a diamond ring for my birthday, I've worn it pretty much everyday since then. I planned on giving it to my daughter when she turned 13. When my church had a purity Bible study, it evolved into my purity ring. Well, now to the bad news...

This Saturday my Cross Country team and I journeyed to Carrolton, GA like 4 hours away by bus. Its was a very very fun trip, they got to run the state course, and did great... thanks to my cheering of course! Unfortunately, we got there at 7, and it was probably like 30 degrees...I was constantly walking back and forth calling out one mile splits and charting the finishing times. My fingers shrunk. My fingers where numb. My ring, already a little to big, fell off. I cried, because the first time I realized it was when I got back on the bus and we were leaving, Carrolton is 4 hours away, so I can't go back and look. I asked God to give me a peace about it, because I know in the big picture it doesn't really matter, its just a ring. God is good, I have that peace now, even though I'm still sad. Who knows, it still could turn up!

(the blue one is mine)

Lately I've noticed that I have a really weird smell, no matter what I wear, like any normal person, I was perplexed. A few days ago, I discovered the culprit...my ASP naked pact bracelet (longggg story)... This has made me very sad, because I know that soon I probably need to remove it, I just haven't been able to summon the courage. I guess all that sweat from cross country and the early mornings at the pool have disheartened its desire to remain fresh and smelly-good. Oh well, guess I'll just wait till next year!

Fill-in-the-Blank-Friday

1. I am a dreamer, and achiever, a doer, a competitor,  a leader by nature, a Christian by grace, and an awkward little fifteen year old who doesn't really know why she is like she is.




2. I wish that every person would realize whats truly important, God and His Glory, and I wish I could remeber this more often...


3. I like clothes, competion, Christ, candy, coffee, creativity, and alliteration.


4. I can see myself in 15 years in a hut in some country where its dangerous to share Jesus, or in Madison with my great husband and little cute kids, or traveling around the country speaking, or becoming Bones...so even though I can  I am really looking more forward to God will.

5. I hope that this world will turn itself around and look to God for its answers... I hope that one day I can have the blessing of knowing that I've been looking at God for a long time.


6. I think  that fall is the best season of the year, and that Auburn is going to cream you know who.

Two Timing Tuesdays

Today I've decided to conquer my fears and blog about Tuesday...I have really hated Tuesdays for a loooonnnggg time.... Tuesdays, in my humble opinion, are worse than Mondays. Mondays are fresh, they give you a taste of what the rest of the week will look like! New things are exciting for me, not scary. Tuesdays are the stale day of the week, they are just blah blah blah. So today I'm just going to blog my heart out until Tuesday and I come to an agreement that we're not going to fight one another any more.
soooo, like always, I will make a list of cons and pros.
Cons- 

• Tuesdays are the day you can never figure out what to wear, you try to save your best outfits for the rest of the week, but you want to save t-shirt day for Wednesday.
• Tuesday is the 2nd day of the week where I have to go to all of my classes
• There is no exciting food on Tuesdays, actually there is just depressing food because the biscuits are $2.50 and that is toooo expensive for me!
• Today is the day teachers like to have a lot of their tests, because they don't like to give them on Monday
• This is why I hate this Tuesday- There's a meet today, which I don't get to run in
• I have a Latin test today, which I haven't studied for
• I found out that Erynn Mangum does not love me, because I wrote a review for her while the offer for a free book was still valid, and I am not receiving a free book...:(
• I have to cram homework in today so that tomorrow won't kill me
• my legs hurt...its not fair!!
• I can't run with the Carters today
• I need to redo 2 tests today

Pros-

• I got donuts and Sunny D this morning, I do love Sunny D... its so healthy
• I'm one step closer to the week being over
• I get to have Government and Literature all in the same day :)
• The wrestling team might usually leave leftovers for the photography class to eat (see bullet uno)
• We voted for Homecoming court today, I love voting
• I actually accomplished something in Photography today, not just blogging
• It's my return to blogging day
• I'm feeling the love from facebooking adults today
• I made a list of stuff me and Lindsey need to talk about
• I might end my career at the physical therapist today!
• God loves Tuesday and thinks its great, because He created it
• I'm making an effort to love Tuesday :)
• I made a great analogy last night and got compared to Laurie!
• My ending line sorta rhymed, and so did this so I didn't miss! (scroll down)

As you can see, Tuesday and me still have our differences that bleed, but God helped me plant a love seed, maybe it will grow into a tree!

90's (or older) Movie Madness!

1. Some glad morning when this life is o'

I'll fly away;

To a home on God's celestial shore,

I'll fly away

2.I'm gonna be a mighty king

                                                                   So enemies beware!

Well I've never seen a king of beasts

With quite so little hair

I'm gonna be the mane event

Like no king was before

I'm brushing up on looking down

I'm working on my roar!

3.Well does he leave a little note to tell you you are on his mind?

                                              Send you yellow flowers when the sky is grey?

He'll find a new way to show you a little bit every day

That's how you know

That's how you know he's your love

4.

Whats your flava

Tell me whats your flava [x4]

I met this fly girl in the club

Went by the name of pecan deluxe

This ice cream was high maintenance

When i took her out,

Man it cost me 20 bucks

Met this chick named walnut whip

Nearly made me sick to the point of throwing up

So i called chocolate chip

Wit the sweet toffee crisp

And i still cant get enough

Your what i want

Your what i need

( hint: she was sliding around in her socks  listening to this song on her walkman and then she scared the maid)

5.U ah ah yea ah yea ah ya ya

                                                       You think you�re goin� nowhere

When you're walking down the street

Acting like you just don't care

When life could be so sweet

But why you wanna be like that

As if there's nothin� new

You're not fooling no one

You're not even fooling you

So walk a little slower

And open up your eyes

Sometimes it�s so hard to see

The good things passing by

There may never be a sign

No flashing neon light

Telling you to make your move

Or when the time is right

(So) Why not (why not)

Take a crazy chance

Why not (why not)

Do a crazy dance

If you lose the moment

You might lose a lot

So why not

Why not

6.or my personal favorite :)....

I see your picture everywhere.

A million dollar fairytale.

And when you walk into the room

You had everybody's eyes on you.

*techno voice [supermodel]

Linda, work

Naomi [she is fierce]

Christi [foxy lady]

Cindy [I can feel it]

Claudia [set on the cover]

I have one thing to say: sacher, chanter, chanter, chanter,

chanter, chanter, chanter." x2

Whoo

You betta work, work, work - supermodel

You betta work, work, work.

** umm I might have danced around my room a couple of times as a 8-year old a couple of times**

7.TV opening theme song-

if you could gaze into the future (future ,future)

You might think life would be a breeze(life is a breeze)

Seeing trouble from a distance(Yeah!)(go rae)

But then it's easy {its lame}(oh no)(Take it to 'em)

I try to save the situation

Then I end up misbehaving(ohohohoh)

8. FOR THE ONES WHO REALLY KNOW THEIR TV SHOWS!!!-

can you name the characters on this show???

catching up like ketchup

Sooo, I've been gone for a while, and I've officially been repremanded by Lindsey aka my blogging mentor as desginated by her. SO alot has been going on since I last entered bloggy world, so I shall make a list.
Lists are my expertise...

1. I no longer trust the police.  More to come when I feel like I can trust the internet...but I will give you one hint, they're following our phone calls and they bugged my mom's computer.

2. I have officaly become a memeber of the boots and scarves and tights and dresses club.  If you want to become a member of this fashion savvy club, contact Lindsey Carter and Caitlin Moss.

3. I have great hair, thanks to the brazillian blowout ( its not what it sounds like, I am a goooood girl its like a japanese straightening without the chemicals) and freeze it.  So now my hair is silky smooth and dries fairly straight and I can get ready in FIVE minutes.

4. I'm looking into a ph (potential husband) degree.  This doesn't mean that I particularly want a husband right now, but that I would be qualified to approve for "other people."  cough, cough...(Caitlin, you know who.)

5. I've decided that my new job is going to be as a confectionist.  Reason 1: They say that you can tell if a cook is good or not by how fat they are, so this gives me an excuse to be really fat.  Just kidding...I don't think I could ever really be fat & happy.  If I was a man, I could be fat & happy...men always get the best of everything.  Reason 2: I can at least sample everything I make.  I've got a good headstart...I made my first batch of fudge the other day.  I just need a really strong assistant who can beat it until it's cool.
