Me.

So today I made a blog. Ha I made so much fun of my sister Brittney because she has one of these things, but I really do enjoy writing. I like writing down my thoughts and things that go on in my life. It kinda helps me capture everything that is going on and see things differently at times.

I just got back in school after Christmas Break and I really didn't want to.[boo] But I'm glad because this means only a few more months and I'll finally be a senior. It's scary to think about having only one more year of school and I'll be in college. It's rather mind blowing. I have to start figuring out different things and make different decisions. Where I'm going to college. Really work on my grades. Realize how I want to finish out my year and 1/2 left. Decide what really matters to me.. who really matters to me. Should I do this, or should I do that. What do I want to do for my job one day. Do I want to go into the youth ministry. Do I want to do missions. Do I want to major in photography. Who am I going to date. Am I going to date. Do I actually want to date. ha no not really right now. But all of these things are flying at my face and its a tough time figuring things out. All I have to keep in mind is My God is not a God of confusion. So I know He'll lead me all the way through every decision.

So basketball has basciyl jsut begun. We have four games coming up in a row. Fri.Sat.Mon.Tues. And my knee is killing me =/ I have to get it checked up on tomorrow maybe. So I pray I will still be able to play bc that would TOTALLY STINK! I've decided I am def NOT going to cheer anymore. It's a waste of my time. But I am excited because once basketball is over I'll be able to do something I love. That is taking pictures. I LOVE LOVE LOVE taking pictures. It's my time to be me, do what I want, how I want it, with my skills I've been giving. It's kinda like my time to escape from this world. And I kinda like that ha. Once basketball is over though I have family pictures and senior pictures and so on lined up already so I'm excited! =]=]

Friendships are going good right now. Haven't had anything go on this year with that. No dumb fighting or drama. I ahve finally realized who I can trust. Who my true friends are. Those who will only bring me up and those who would bring me down. Whose there for me when things go wrong but also those who are cheering with me when things are great. I just have a peace with everyone and my group of loves[friends] just keep growing.=]

family is doing good. Haven't gotten in trouble in a while. lol by trouble I mean not making up my bed =P silly silly. but yea everything is good there. I'm loving how Dad is home more and I like having mom there at home because I know she is always there when I need her.

My quiet time has been going great. I've been really consistant and I'm loving my devotional book. "Everything Counts" My Utmost For His Highest. It's awesome =] I'm growing and I am making changes that I know I've needed to work on.

I have also learned these past two weeks that sometimes inorder to see stuff clearly you have to get rid of some things. Even though its tough to do somethings, it'll only be the best for you later on. Everything I believe can only make you stronger and it all happens for a reason. So I'm def. taking that into thinking and it helps me everyday I think about it.

I miss my sister.Brittney. She's in VA at Liberty and she hasnt lived with us in like what 4 years now? goodness. it's like I'm the only child.[boo] I need a puppy =] But yea I miss her being here. We use to have a jacknjill bathroom and we would always meet in there and just talk.About anything. Didn't matter. I miss that.

But okay that's all for tonight.
