So, I'm going over to the Williamson's tonite for an exciting night of studying God's Word with fellow Christians and celebrating Xmas, which is one of my favorite times of the year.. presents, DUH! lol, jk! Xmas is one of my favorite times of the year but it's because people are always happier around Christmas time and are more humble than throughout the year. and not to mention getting to see family members who you haven't seen in ages and eating all the wonderfully made food(YUMMY!!). Anyway, have a great Christmas everybody!!
So today has been crazy!! Our school had a lockdown for 2 and a half hours while they were searching for a murderer on the loose. The worse part, and yes this story can get worse, is that they r searching around our house! This morning they've had a tank out and had roads blocked off for miles and miles! The school was crazy! The only way we could be released today was if our parents came and checked us out! Bottom line.. today was insane and everyone was freaking out!
Well i have to go because im off to a Bible study tonite at the Sadler's. ttyl!
Hey guys! I know I haven't posted in a while and I'm sorry! I haven't really had time lately, school has been soo hectic. Anyway, I decided, now that I have time to spare, that I would give ya'll an update about what has been going on.
First of all,school has been going great! I've been able to stay on top of all my assignments and last 9 weeks I made all A's except for 1 high B. My schedule is being moved around next semester which makes me sad cause I like the way my classes are set up right now but hopefully I will know some people in my new class periods.
Second, as most of ya'll know, I started dating Evan Waugh. Well he turned out to be a jerk and dumped me Wed. night. So it's hard but I'm getting through it. Now I am beginning to realize that not everyone is what they seem to be at first, even as you get to know them better you don't truly know them unless you talk to people who have known them longer than you. Okay, enough about that subject.
Thirdly, Halloween is coming up and I'm really excited!! I think we are planning to go to the Sadler's Halloween party, sorry PC friends, on Nov. 1st. I also have another Halloween party the night before on Halloween night over in Wesley Chapel. Me, my sis, and Caitlin Caraway are planning on dressing up as cowgirls, it's somewhat original but I like it! All i need to buy is a hat and my costume is complete. YAY! lol.
Fourth, I may be going to Europe!! I'm soo excited!! Over the summer there is a group of kids and teachers from my school going on an 8 day trip to Paris, Barsolona, and Versailles. It's going to be soo much fun! The only catch is that the trip costs $2,600! It's a crazy amount of money that I don't have so I have to find a way to get donations or sponsorships or something otherwise I can't go. If you know of any companies or anyone who would be willing to sponsor me to go to Europe please let me know! Every little bit counts right now. Also, This trip is not just for fun, we are applying everything we see to something we have learned in AP Wolrd and AP Lang, so we are going to be learning there too. We would also be arriving there on France's Independance Day, July 14th, so we would get to see fireworks over the Eiffel Tower! I can't wait! lol.
Well, that's all for my update at the moment. Hopefully I will have time to update more often in the near future. Talk to yall later, love you guys! And sorry that this post is soo long! haha
im sorry he treated you badly. i was gonna say something when i found out but i didnt want to hirt your feelings and think that i hated him or something. ANYWHO that would be really cool if you got to go to Paris! i hope you do. well ill ttyl see ya sunday!
1 I will praise you. O Lord, with all my heart; before the "gods" I will sing your praise.
2 I will bow down toward your holy temple and will praise your name for your love and your faithfulness, for you have exalted above all things your name and your word.
3 When I called, you answered me; you made me bold and stouthearted.
4 May all the kings of the earth praise you, O Lord, when they hear the words of your mouth.
5 May they sing of the ways of the Lord, for the glory of the Lord is great.
6 Though the Lord is on high, he looks upon the lowly, but the proud he knows from afar.
7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life; you stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes, with your right hand you save me.
8 The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O Lord, endures forever - do not abandon the works of your hands.
This is my favorite passage! It is great for us to read a passage like this everyday especially through troubles to reassure us that God is always, and will always, be with us and how great and mighty He is.
