  • Wow!! I haven't been on this site in ages!!! I miss xanga!!! I miss writing whatever I felt like at any given moment. So a lot has changed since my last real post... Lets see

    I'm now 17!!! Yay!!! I got my braces taken off on my Birthday this year! I am a Senior at Gateway Christian School! I am Captain of my cheerleding squad! We plan to head up to State in March or April! I am Senior Class President. I am taking drama at GCS and positively love it. I have the best drama teacher ever. I think I'm heading back to TN next fall to go to Lee University if everything works away the way I'm hoping it will.  I plan on majoring in Secondary Math and minoring in Children's Ministries and Theatre. So basically I plan on teaching for the rest of my life haha. Oh yeah the whole reason we mainly moved down here was so my mom could help her brother with his church. Well, a few weeks ago, My uncle resigned as the Pastor of Living Stones Christian Fellowship and the church's board decided that without him they didn't see the church surviving so they closed its doors... Thats been a hard bit to swallow seeing as how with the church I can understand God bringing us here, but without it, it just confuses me. I mean here it is my Senior year... I'm stuck here and now God's not tipping his hand. That upsets me I like knowing whats happening!!! But I'm sure he has a reason... I mean look at all the stuff I'm involved in. But anyways we started going to a new church which is really awesome!! I mean the Youth Group is so on fire for God. The services are positively amazing... I had almost forgotten what that felt like. So I'm kinda glad yet sad about the church closing. I think its good for me spiritually, because I'm being fed and no longer have to be the "example" as my mom put it. Anyways... I can't believe its already thanksgiving. I'm almost halfway done with my Senior year and yet I feel so totally unprepared!!! I'm not sure why I just do! Its hard for me to explain. But I'm ready to graduate to give that Valedictorian speech and head out of here!!! I'll miss my friends and family, but I will definitely not miss ROSWELL!!! My parents don't like the idea of me being so far away, but thankfully its my life!!! So I plan on heading East as quick as I possibly can!! Oh yeah my hip has continually caused me pain since it went out back in may 2006. I finally went to a chiropractor he fixed it and lo and behold less than 6 months later it goes out again. I'm pretty sick of having to deal with it, but I guess I just have to put up with it for a few more months and then cheering will be over and hopefully it won't go out ever again!!!!

    Thats about all the news I have other than all the boy drama I've been through over the last year or so, but the good news is I shouldn't have any for the rest of the year, because I won't be dating!! I've discovered its way overrated. So I'm staying clear of it. Ya'll should be proud haha thats about it...

    If you read that monstrosity bravo!!!

  • So I have posted in like forever!! Did you know that as of last Thursday I have been here for a year?? I still can't! Its sorta sad!!!! Well last night I wrote a pretty cool poem or at least I think so. Any criticism would be appreciated!!

     

    "Heartbroken"

    How long does it take old wounds to heal?

    Why does the pain continue to kill?

    It hurt so much when I was betrayed.

    It left my heart tangled and frayed.

    When finally I thought I’d moved on,

    The memories awakened at the sight of the dawn.

    I felt confused, afraid, and hurt yet again,

    All because of that one man’s sin.

    He promises me he’s changed a lot,

    Given the burden up to rot.

    Yet still my heart continues to ache

    From the burden of his awful mistake.

    If only I knew a way to let go,

    to take down that invisible foe.

    A way to allow my wound to heal properly.

    Never reopened for him to see

    All the pain he’s caused to this day.

    Oh how many times I’ve wished that pain away!

    He never knew how much I cared,

    Never knew the times I was scared.

    Now he’s moved on and I’m left all alone

    Just me and my feelings he never would have known.

    Will he ever realize all that he lost?

    Or what a price his mistake cost?

     

    Here is my awesome poem. I think its become my absolute favorite!! Shower me with wonderful comments, please!

  • Hey everybody so I realized today that I haven't posted in a month so I figured I fill some of ya'll in. Lets see I am going to a new school next year which should be really good for me. I'm pretty excited!! I tried out for cheerleading there and totally made it! The only down-side to that is the Wednesday before practice, our coach asked us to do a kartwheel. Now for the past few years I'm taken gymnastics, so I'm pretty adept at Kartwheels. Well, everything was going perfectly fine until my last one I really wanted to show off so while in the air I try to extend my legs just a little farther than normal. Instead of shrugging my shoulders to make my legs look prettier I pushed out my hip. Well, I hear this "pop" and I feel a lot of pain searing down my right leg not cool. I've had my leg pop out before so I stretch it, and it feels better. I go to do a running roundoff and its pretty good for not even attempting one in a couple of years, but its excrutiating pain. So I am crying a lot and my coach comes over there. They pray over my hip and then I call my mom and go home. It is over two hours before it finally goes back in. Talk about pain!! Now there are things that I have to be careful about doing. Like I play church softball, but I haven't since the accident, but I played Monday and it hurt sooo bad by the end of the night. So for now I'm living with it. I am out of school!!! So happy!! Here's my grades for exams

    Spanish-103

    Algebra II-98

    Bible-104

    English-103

    Chemistry-98

    Not so bad if you ask me!! I got the award for highest numeric average in the whole school. I think its pretty cool. I think thats about all thats going down right now. I'm going to be watching this little girl from my church over the summer and getting paid!! haha So thats about all the big things. I don't have anything else to say

    So leave me comments!!! I love ya guys

  • Well I felt like writing something So I did. I'm not sure I exactly like it, but I'm not sure I like anything I write. Any comments will be appreciated Here it is!!!

    A symbol of His pain

    A symbol of His pain

    A thing of misery not in vain

    To be worn around the neck

    For our reality check

    A thing used for torture

    For us in the future

    The death of One not guilty

    To pay the price for you and me

     

    And yet we disgrace him

    We let the Light dim

    We put the nails in His hands

    Again and again

    We turn our backs on the Holy One

    Who gave up His only Son

    We take that cross and we deface it

    We pick up that whip and we hit

    The very One who took our place

    The very One who we disgrace

     

    Yet when trouble comes

    We pray to go home

    And wonder why He's taking so long

    Wonder what we have done wrong

    When we're back to normalcy we forget

    I wonder if He ever regrets

    The price He paid that poor Friday

    On that symbol of His horrible pain

    What on Earth did He gain?

    When He died that death upon that cross

    For me and you what a price that cost

    That death of One not guilty

    That paid the price for you and me.
