Wonderstruck. I love this word. I'm listening to Enchanted by Taylor Swift right now. GOOOOD song. <3
I'm pretty much obsessed with her... I bought a magazine I care nothing about yesterday because she was on the cover. I have yet to read the article about her though... I need to! What would this be called if it is the equivalent to Bieber Fever? The Swift Drift? Ha I don't know. That's the only word I can think of right now that rhymes with Swift. I have waaaaaay too many thoughts running through my mind right now. Today's just a really good day, and I'm not quite sure why! Buuuut I like it. :)
So yesterday, God blew my mind! It's crazy to me how the God of the universe, the one who created EVERYTHING, loves ME so much that he does little things just to make me smile and cheer me up!!! I mean, really. I was having a bad evening and I was all angry at life (that's a bit dramatic), but on my way home, there was a horse right by the fence, and I got out and petted it! AND I WASN'T EVEN SCARED OF THE DARK!!! It was crazy because usually, I'm terrified of the dark. God is just totally cool. I mean, that story doesn't really sound all that cool hahaha, but it really was!
I suppose I'm just about done rambling now... I'm just really excited about life. :)
I have a good verse to share though! Ok. It's Ephesians 1:11-12. To me, it's a good reminder that no matter what happens, everything is just part of God's plan to bring Himself glory. If it's not part of my plan, I need to just be flexible and handle it in a God-glorifying way!
"God also decided ahead of time to choose us through Christ according to his plan, which makes everything work the way He intends. He planned all of this so that we who had already focused our hope on Christ would praise Him and give Him glory."
That is all. <3

Well. Isn't life just dandy? :)
I just haven't felt like blogging AT ALL lately... buuuuuut I do now! Let's just see here...
I've been pretty productive today. I decided that I WILL perfect and record a song on my guitar this weekend! I want to put a video on YouTube, but I haven't been patient enough with myself to actually like do it. And now I am! I want to put up a video before the end of spring break, soooo I have a little over 24 hours... Yeah. It's kind of wishful thinking. Anyhow... I got a bit frustrated with my guitar (and my fingertips were KILLING me) and quit. Then, I started choreographing my dance for drill team officer tryouts. I got about 20 seconds done, so yayyy! I feel very accomplished. My dance is a mix of three Glee songs (for three different styles of dance) aaaaaand since I'm a major Gleek, I just love my song! Hahah. I suppose that's all I care to share on here. ;)
P.S. Any time I put a "dot dot dot," it looks like a line. Like this... Yeah. I don't want to change it though. The end.

Indescribable.
Woooooowwww it's been almost a week since my last blog! I fail. At life. Except not really. By the way, it's 12:30 AM. Haaaaa. :)
Soooo I don't really have much to say (that I wouldn't mind sharing on here...) buuuuut I do have a super cool story! This morning, I had to wake up super early to do my homework since I didn't do it last night, and I was having an obsession with "Indescribable" by Chris Tomlin (it's been on repeat ALL DAY!). I was sitting with my back to the windows where the sun rises, so when I noticed that it was rising, I turned around to see it, and it was SO GORGEOUS. It was all bright orange and hot pink and beautifulness. And at that exact moment, the song said, "Creation's revealing Your majesty," and I was like WHOAAAAA!!!! God is SO stinkin cool! He planned that. It made my day! I love it! I'm going to sleep now. Goodnight! :)

Well Hello there, Thursday!
Sooooo things have kind of gotten better since Sunday. Yay! Really, I just pretended to be happy with things, and that turned into real happiness. I have to trick myself like that sometimes. It's not the end of the world, so everything is grand. :)
Today is the day we wear bible verses on a string/ribbon/whatever ha. My verse is Hebrews 12:1...
Since we are surrounded by so many examples of faith, we must get rid of everything that slows us down, especially sin that distracts us. We must run the race that lies ahead of us and NEVER GIVE UP.
I just love that! That's all I've got for today. :)

WORST WEEKEND EVER.
And just when I thought things were bad, they got worse.
SWEET.
I'm not going to go into detail, just because not everyone needs to know my personal problems. However, I AM going to write a "letter" to an anonymous person who made my life misery for a long time. I don't expect that he will read this, so that's probably a good thing.
You-
YOU SUCK. Can you please just move away or something?! I don't like you, you obviously hate me, and I want you to leave me alone! I neither want nor need your immaturity, stupidity, and ignorance in my life, so GO AWAY. Must you be so stupid?! I don't HATE you, but I dislike you about as much as one can dislike a person without it being considered hatred. You are pathetic. What I ever saw in you, I have no clue whatsoever! YOU'RE NOT NICE. YOU'RE NOT FUNNY. YOU JUST ARE NOT A GOOD PERSON. I put you in my phone as Satan. It was kinda awesome, except not really because you're that awful. I do hope you NEVER text or call me ever again, let alone talk to me in person. You wouldn't talk to me in person anyways... That would be too mature for you. This whole "letter" comes down to just one thing: GET OUT OF MY LIFE! That is all.
"All you are is mean and a liar and PATHETIC and alone in life and mean..."
Gotta love how Taylor Swift knows every teenage girl's life.

Weekend = great... then awful. SUPER.
I decided that I'm not going to post stuff if I'm not in a good mood so that I won't be all depressing... Merrhhh. Buuuuut I'm going to make a mini exception because I feel like I haven't posted in forever. Friday was grand. Megan and I ate at Runaway Train (cheese fries = beautiful. ha!) then went to the soccer game. It was my very first high school (guys) soccer game ever! I'm lame and have no school spirit like that, but it was fun! I see more soccer games in my future. Saturday... half of the day was great. The other half... not so much. UIL Solo and Ensemble was Saturday, and our madrigal made it to state. However, on my solo, I screwed it up because I got nervous. That's all I'm gonna say because I don't want to start crying again... Let's just say it ruined my weekend.
Anyways, I'm working on editing music for Spring Show and for my officer tryout dance for drill team, and I needed to take a break! But now it's time to go back to work. Laytuhhh. Ha just kidding! Byeee.

One hundred thirty-seven.
That is the magic number of the moment! Let me explain:
So many people are ordering Redefining Beautiful (in case you don't know what this is, go check it out at http://youaresoverybeautiful.blogspot.com/) shirts. Today, I added all of my orders to my handy dandy little spreadsheet and realized that there are 137 orders. Awesome, right?! Yes, it is.
After I realized this, I checked my little countdown to the days until Megan, Jared, and I go to Paris (on a mission trip... I only specify because I feel like it's essential to the work God is doing in my life and Redefining Beautiful is a part of that.) AND THERE ARE 137 DAYS UNTIL WE LEAVE FOR PARIS!!!
What are the odds that the number would be the same?! It's just a random number. 137. One hundred thirty seven. Just a number! Geez. God is CRAZY AWESOME. He knew this would happen. Honestly, I think He sometimes does things just to make us go, "Whoaaaa hold up a second! Say whaaaaaat?!"
That is my wonderful story for today. Definitely made my day. :D
