Mixed feelings

OK, so I'm in La Grande and I love it! It's all snowy and it's fun to go places with Cherise and Kiel.....but then theres part of me that feels out of place. That part of me is telling me that I should go home, and I can't really point out where it's coming from.

Tonight is the church's Christmas party (NewSong in La Grande) I'm super excited!!

Umm....thats it for now....bye

11:28PM....so tired!

I'm listening to youtube...it's amazingly funny...

Umm...so, what to say thats actually worth something...
I finished classes today!! I had my very last final and I even got out early!! =D

I stuck around because my teacher brought cookies and hot apple cider because it was the last day and all. Yeah, it was amazing! Except Andrew was right...he said the cider was really hot, but I didn't listen and I burnt my tongue. Not so schmart.

I g2g to bed! It's late and I have things to do tomorrow....

Zookinorkiness

Zookinorkiness (ZOO-key-NOR-key-neSS)....I like my new word. You say someone is acting with zookinorkiness when they are acting dumb, big headed, arrogant, and/or just plain jerkyness. OR it could mean someone is just being silly, but if you've never heard the word before then you might have to explain what you mean by it. Or you could make your own meaning and just call the person a zookinorkier.

Ok, so to get to the REAL reason I'm posting. I wanted to post some of the verses of songs that I'm listening to to help me get through this season.


"She won't make a sound
Alone in this fight with herself and the fears whispering if she stands she'll fall down
She wants to be found
The only way out is through everything she's running from wants to give up and lie down."
(SuperChic[k])


Why are you looking for love
Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough
To where will you go child
Tell me where will you run
To where will you run
(Tenth Avenue North)


I've been telling my dreams to the scarecrow
About the places that I'd like to see
I say, "friend do you think I'll ever get there?"
Oh, but he just stands there smilin' back at me
So I confessed my sins to the preacher
About the love I've been prayin' to find
Is there a brown-eyed boy in my future, yeah
And he says, "girl, you've got nothin' but time."
(Sarah Evans)


You're not alone
Together we stand
I'll be by your side
You know I'll take your hand

When it gets cold
And it feels like the end
There's no place to go
You know I won't give in
No I won't give in
(Avril Lavigne)

So those are some of the lyrics that I've been relating to...among others.

Here it is!

Here is the song on Youtube.

Enjoy! =)

P.S. You're going to have to copy and paste because it is being weird.

By Your Side

This song is really good, it is helping me a lot right now in my life.


*By Your Side*

Why are you striving these days
Why are you trying to earn grace
Why are you crying
Let me lift up your face
Just don't turn away

Why are you looking for love
Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough
To where will you go child
Tell me where will you run
To where will you run

Cause I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Look at these hands and my side
They swallowed the grave on that night
When I drank the world's sin
So I could carry you in
And give you life
I want to give you life

And I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Here at My side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Cause I, I love you
I want you to know
That I, yeah I love you
I'll never let you go no, no

And I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Here at My side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Here at my side, My hands are holding you, oh

Finals

I had my writing final on Wednesday and I was the first one done that I know of because I was the first one to get up and give the test to my instructor. I feel like I did a good job so thats good. I have to turn in my take-home reading final by Monday at 5pm,Hayden is going with me for that...even though he is convinced that he's not, mom is going to make him go cause (I think) he needs to face the fear of the bus (*the one I used to have*)

Speaking of Kittens...

Ninja is being very nice right now. She's not running away, she's purring and licking my arm...it feels funny. Now she is kneading the carpet. While Peanut Butter is licking water out of the tub facet, even though her water bowl is filled with nice clean water...

I have a really bad headache right now...like really I don't like to look at the screen and so I can't spell to save my life...it's taking forever to write this post so I'm gonna go be a good girl and finish my homework in pain...

New Background!!

Yay for new backgrounds!! So...yeah, I really don't have much to say...

Tough choices are still being made. I have finals all next week, so thats fun...Um, I'm watching "Elf" right now and typing, believe me, it takes talent! =D

OK so tomorrow I think I'll wear my long sleeve blue top and my fancy jeans with my 4-inch high heels. Yeah it's gonna be adorable! AND I'm probably going to wear my dangly earings, the sparkley ones...

We got our Christmas trees today! And Cameron and I got most of our Christmas decorations out of the basement and so we're going to be decorating a LOT tomorrow and the beginning of Monday.

I'm gonna go.....so I ask you, what's more vulnerable than a peach!?

Hard Choices

I've made some of the tougher choices I've had to make yet. But it's all gonna be ok because God is seeing me through it all.

I kinda wish I could say everything on here but, for the protection of myself and others, I won't. All I'll say is that God is good and He will never leave nor forsake you.

short post, I know.....sorry viewers! ;)

It's half past Princess!

"I got a watch...It's half past Princess!" Says the anonymous voice from the other side of the room.

I'm not supposed to say who actually said it...but thats ok....

Umm....mom made stew tonight, it was delicious! We also had good stuff that we put Cherise's wonderful apple butter on.....oh so delicious!!!

I g2g help Joylynn with the babies, so yeah.....

bye

wow...it's been a day or two

I'm super tired right now....*YAWN* **blink**blink** I need sleep....

Anyways....Wednesday night was SO awesome! In every sense of the word! God's presence was there so strongly, so many people got set free from the chains of Satan, it was so cool!!!

Umm...emotional status has been confusing lately, mainly because lots of people are telling me a million different things about what I should or shouldn't be doing or talking about. It's difficult to have very opinionated friends, but you get used to it sooner or later.

I need to go finish up the last bit of my homework and then get to bed...sooooo bye have fun doing whatever you want!

I WILL PROBABLY DIE WAITING!!!

GU is too far away! I want it to be now...I SOOOOOO CAN'T WAIT!!! =D =D =D

Anyways...I also I can't wait for my MONTH LONG Christmas vacation! Well I guess to be politically correct I should say "winter vacation/break...but who ever said I had to be politically correct ;)

ALSO I can't wait to go travel the Amazon rainforest and help underprivileged animals thrive in their local communities and get health insurance! Actually, I'm not gonna do that cause it's stupid to get animals health insurance...they can't even pay for it ;)

MOREOVER! (transition words...you gotta love em'!) I can't wait to get to my homework so I can go to Nicole's party tomorrow! =D

Ok so I feel like posting the lyrics to these songs that we sang at Generation Unleashed

"You carried me, when I was alone; still your hand was guiding me. You rescued me, set me on the rock. You've taken me to higher ground. I know that You are with me, I know You're always there. I love you, I lift up my arms and I worship You alone. I love you. With all of my heart, I will worship You alone.

You carried me, when I was alone; still your hand was guiding me. You rescued me, set me on the rock. You've taken me to higher ground. I know that You are with me, I know You're always there. I love you, I lift up my arms and I worship You alone. I love you. With all of my heart, I will worship You alone. I love You. I lift up my arms and I worship You alone. I love You, with all of my heart I will worship You alone.

Almighty God, love never failing. You are my all. With all my heart and my soul I worship You. Almighty god, love never failing you are my all. with all my heart and my soul I will worship you, I will worship you, I will worship you."



"I love you, I lift up my arms and I worship you alone. I love you, with all of my heart I will worship you alone.

I love you, Lord. And I lift my voice to worship you. Oh my soul rejoice. Take joy my King in what you hear. Let it be a sweet sweet sound in you ears.

I love you Lord and I lift my voice, to worship you, Oh my soul rejoice take joy my king in what you hear let it be a sweet sweet sound let it be a sweet sweet let it be a sweet sweet sound in your ears.

*music*

How I love you, how I love you, how I love you Jesus....
How I love you, how I love you, how I love you Jesus....
How I love you, how I love you, how I love you Jesus....
how I love you, how I love you, how I love you Jesus...."

YAY!

Yay for fancy new backgrounds! I LOOOOOOOVE it! =D
Its super fantastic! I would be more excited except I have to go to sleep!! YAY SLEEP!!!

People are not cooperating!

People were supposed too call me *cough*Natalie*cough* and text me...well they weren't SUPPOSED to text me...I just texted them HOURS ago and normally they text back sooner then the next day. ANYWAYS, I passed reading mid-term!! yay! Um, I also passed my math test...one of the hardest ones this term (says my instructor). So I'm gonna go now cause I'm in Lacey at my sister's house....well, it's not JUST her house it's her husbands too....

iiiiiiiiiitttttssss...SATURDAY!!! *YAY**HURRAY*CHEER*

Ok, so this might sound a little funny...I can go on Facebook now, and I went on this morning and thought to myself "What was I so obsessed about? This is kinda retarded..." I know one reason that I was so "I have to get on facebook!" and that is being worked on daily, other than that I really don't don't understand why it was so important to me to be on there everyday. I think another reason was that I was trying to avoid homework...

I'm still going to be reading those books. So yeah....I get to get a new phone today!!!
So I'm going to ask my mom if we can go soon! =D

Happy Day!

Day #6

Ok, so last night was awesome! God really spoke into my life. Suki and Jacquie prayed for me and God did really amazing things. There are things I need to do still, like keep pressing into Him and seeking His face everyday.

It's getting harder to stay off Facebook, I've been staying off though.

*sigh* This is not easy, I knew it wouldn't be...I just kinda wish it wasn't as hard as it has been and might still be. I can do it though...BECAUSE I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! =D

Day #4

Day four, things aren't seeming to be getting any harder...only time management. I've been finding time to do my homework, but I've had trouble with not procrastinating...and as a result of procrastinating I haven't gotten into the bible in the past 2 days! This isn't good, I need to change my behavior.

I started reading "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" today on the way home, like I've said, its a good one.
I can't believe that the other book is sold out in all the Barnes&Nobles near here! I guess I'll have to order it from either online or in the store. I think in the store cause that way I don't have to pay shipping! =D

G2g, I have to ask mom if she can read over my essay and help me revise and edit it.

Day #3

Ok...I skipped blogging in day #2, but not because I don't like to blog, oh no, it was because I was doing homework...and countless other thing while I was SUPPOSED to be doing homework. Not facebook, which is good. I found a book in my sister's old room called "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" its apparently a good read so I think I'm going to. Also I...well I shouldn't say "I" cause that wouldn't be true, my sister found a book that I'm hopefully going to get in the near future called "Before You Meet Prince Charming: A Guide to Radiant Purity", so thats on my reading list as well...
Stress factor for the next 2 weeks is MID-TERM! My goodness, its come really fast! I really ReAlLy REALLY hope I'll do fine...at least fine, I hope to do great! Homework time...fun stuff in a box =(

Day #1

Ok, this isn't as hard as I expected....I need to get back to my homework but I wanted to say something on here before I did. I am already amazed at how many emails I get from Facebook in 6 hours time! And I don't even check them cause I know that if I did I'd probably click the link to get to F.B

ok, new news!

I'm really trying to make God my first priority and not be so caught up in myself and facebook that I convince myself that I didn't have time for Him. So I am "fasting" from facebook, that is if you want to get all religious about, I'm merely taking a break from it for a week and spending my free time with God instead of chatting with friends that I see practically everyday. It wasn't a self-inspired thing either, Kiel made the suggestion and he is going to help keep me accountable. It's not going to be easy, cause I really like being on facebook, but I'm willing to sacrifice it for God...I mean how much more did He give for me?

Sorry!

I haven't been in Lacey for a long time...
Plus, I've been preoccupied with school starting and all. Speaking of school, its going ok for me in 3 out of 5 classes. The other 2 I'm kinda behind =(
I've also been really addicted to Facebook lately. So thats where you can find me on most days...if your online that is.

I learned a new word!!! Its superfluous! I love that word and I actually know what it means!! (in case you didn't) It means, unnecessary, not needed, exceeding what is sufficient...and so on

I just had subway...its good stuff!

I'm going to go to Facebook...I promis I'll post again before the year is over! =D

Out of Town...

I'm in Lacey WA at Alyssa and Logan's house... I'm very happy cause I really wanted to come here before school started and I didn't think I was going to be able to. But now I'm here!!!!

To come here I re-scheduled an all-nighter with Rashell from the 11th to the 17th...Joy says that we're not allowed to drink too much caffeine...heh, riiiiiight! =)

I want to go shopping!!!!!! I need to go to the bank first...*sigh* soon hopefully! I want to eat my jello so I
m off to adventure out to my jello bowl thats on the table about a foot and a half away from me... an absolutely perilous journey! =D

Finding the Right Word...

I seem to be at a loss for words....I guess that the (sorta) right word for how I'm feeling is apprehensive. Big word!
Mostly about school...I figured things out and now I could care less about which campus Isaiah is going to. Anyways, Spring term was pretty easy, I learned a lot and made friends...but Fall term is all new! New classes, new teachers, new people, new everything! Its kinda scary...BUT I'll make it through like I did at the beginning of Spring term. I think by Winter term I'll be more used to things.



Live. Laugh. Love. <3

WooHoo???

I really don't know WHY I'm posting at this time...I just feel like it.

Hayden and Cameron start school tomorrow, I don't...not until the 22nd of September! I don't like to have to wait that long.

Tonight Isaiah told me that he might be transfering from the South East Center to the Cascade Center....which I'm upset about and have absolutly NO clue as to why...

Umm...God is the BEST EVER!!! I'm getting closer to Him than I ever remember getting, and that is a thing to be VERY SUPER DUPER excited about!!!

Nothing else to say...so bye!

Zoo Trip!!!

Hokay so, here are some pictures from the zoo yesterday...Enjoy!
(Viewer discretion is advised for one of these pictures)

Boring Days......

Hi...I want school to start...I want my list of things to get for school so I can go school shopping too!
I did get a few things last night...but I know I will probably need more than just a stapler, staples, notebooks, and paper clips.

Rashell and I are going to the zoo on Monday and I can't wait! She hasn't been there in like 6 years! Thats amazazing to me (I've been there like a million times in the past 6 months!)
I'll be taking TONS of pictures and I hope to be posting no later than Wednesday about our trip. We are going to pack a lunch so we don't have to spend a gazillion dollars on food...I'm still gonna bring money to buy packy pops at the end of the day........that is if they still have them!

I gotta scoot...I'm cleaning the front rooms and dinning room today, theres a lot to do in all those rooms, so buh-bye!

(and to satisfy all the Cherise's out there) Cuddle Up With Life!

Its been while...

I can't stay on long on account of it being sooooooooo late. I just wanted to say that I'm still alive and say hi to those who actually still read my blog.
I got a new camera while I was in La Grande for Cherise and Kiel's wedding,
so I'm going to post a picture or two from the ride home cause the rest of the pics are on my laptop (I'm gonna post from there too so I can show you guys more pictures)

Bye then! Have fun with the rest of your summer!!!

P.S. If you have a clam.......maybe I shouldn't say the rest ;-)

P.S.P.S. This is me dancing Krystle's dance!!!

Totally Killer!

I am loving having this lap top! I can be ANYWHERE in my house (practically) and I can get on the internet and play games and just mess around and make it my own!

I really can't wait for church tonight, cause I haven't been there since.........not last Sunday but the one before that. It's been far too long :*(

I like chicken tenders from Burger King.....partly because I don't like the word "nuggets" but they taste good too, don't get me wrong.

Ok, so the "totally killer" thing that I was going to say (in a good way) was the part of my work that is serving lunch to the day campers. Its so much fun cause I get to talk with all my co-workers and I get to see and talk to some of the campers sometimes too.

Anyways...(*parting statement*) KNOWLEDGE IS POWER! Stay in school (and yes I'm still talking to you even if you don't go to school anymore, just pretend with me =)

Lots-O-Stuff......kinda

I got a job...its getting better as the days go by. Cherise and Kiel gave me a laptop!! Its cherise's old one but its still in good condition......although 3 of the keys are faded out, I still know what they are so that doesn't really matter! =D
Now I'm saving up to get a good digital camera!

My family reunion was awesome! I got reaquainted with lots of cousins, aunts, and uncles that I didn't really realize that I could talk to as easily as I can now!

I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL SCHOOL STARTS!!!!! I want it to be now!!!

Thats all for now....hense the "kinda" in the title... ;)

Hokay so...

First-O-All, HAPPY 29th ANNIVERSARY MOM AND DAD!!!!!!!

Second-O-All, I got accepted into the Gateway Program at PCC!! I'm the first of all my siblings (who have gone to PCC in the past) to go through this kind of program! And Isaiah Ducky Head got into the program too...

My job people called today but Hayden didn't answer cause he didn't recognize the name...but I'm going to call them tomorrow cause the lady said that there is a job opening at the Children's Museum! So, I really hope the job is still open for me...

I think I'll write a paper on American History...only cause I've never done it before!!! I'll start it tomorrow cause its 11:12pm so I'm going to bed! :-D

STUPID HOT SUN!

This is NOT what I wanted! I wanted a (cool) breezy day!!
Anyways...now that my frantic explosion of....yell is over I can say what I wanted to say! :D
I'm still in Lacey with Alyssa and Rowan. We went to Fort Lewis today and the way there was super slow for no reason! It said so on the radio!! Then the way back was slow for like 2 seconds then it cleared up.....
Then we went to Panda Express(a.k.a the BEST Chinese fast food place EVAH!!!)!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then we came home!....I'm not sure how thats exciting though...

So now I'm going to go drown myself in a book that I've been trying to read for 3 days now...

TaTa!!



("tata"??? How lame can I get?!?!)

Ah, how time does fly!

Well...kinda...
I'm at Lyssa's house...we got Rowan a little pool today! Its a cute one, its only like 6 inches tall. Perfect for a little guy like him. He was playing in it a bit ago and he was having so much fun! Then his diaper got so full of water...it looked so funny!!
Well......not much more to say......soooooooooooo

BYE!......for now..............MUAHAHAHAHA!!!!

P.S. I say "so" too much!

Yes I did!

Lalita is right! I did get my license! Yesterday in fact...and I got to drive my brothers to church! My mom followed in the van just in case I got run of the road or something. Also Rylan showed up yesterday morning!!! So, I had a good day yesterday. Except the DMV only gave me a paper license...the plastic one is in the mail, its a safety measure I guess. So, yeah, being a licensed driver is pretty cool! Although some of my friends find it kinda scary.....honestly I don't blame them ;-)
But, no, I'm a really good driver...Or so say my parents and Lyssa, I think Logan said it too but I don't remember.
I have to go clean for the arrival of Cherise and Kiel.

And here is a funny little thing from Spongebob:
Doctor: Well, it looks like your gluteus maximus has made a full recovery.
Spongebob: My what has a what now?
Doctor: Your butt’s all better.

I GOT MY LICENSE!!!!!!







I do NOT own "Spongebob Squarepants" or anything from it.

Summer Daze

I can't believe how uneventful I've made my summer so far! This is the perfect time to start my room...but I don't have any means of transporting the garbage that comes out of it. I also want to clean the main floor of my house so it can be clean for summer and I can have friends over without having to make half the house "Off Limits".
I am probably going driving with my dad.....tomorrow? Yeah tomorrow, because my drive test is in 4 days!!!! HOLY CRABOLY!!!!! I AM SO STINKEN NERVOUS NOW!!!! I know I shouldn't be cause I'm a good driver and the worst that can happen is I don't get my license, then I just reschedule and there ya go!
I'm at the Duckworth's house right now...only Steven, Isaiah, and I are awake. They made waffles! I think I'll go eat mine now...

Cuddle Up With Life!

WHAT ELSE?!?!?

Is beauty all that matters?

Well, yesterday I went to a Career Highlight at Providence Medical Center. This years highlight was Perinatal Services. I was pretty interesting...the nurses did a good job explaining the different things they do in the delivery room. They all said it was really fun, but I'm still stuck on pediatrics!
Spring term technically ends tomorrow....but as some of us know I've been out for a while. I'm still going tomorrow cause theres awards and such.

Thats all that I can think of at the moment.....OH YEAH! my drive test is in 13 days!!! I need practice!!!

Wii Fit

My dad's birthday was this last week on Friday! From us kids he got a new game for the Wii,
Wii Fit! Its super fabulous! Its actually pretty challenging sometimes and it keeps track of where you were when you started the fitness thing and when you'll end it, its really cool. I'm bored.
I think I'll go see what the rest of my family is up to!

SYWTSDPHSNM!!!! (it had to be cooler than "ttfn")

opps! Sorry!

The highest score you an get in 800 and the lowest passing is 410, I'm not sure how low someone can score....So there ya go!

YEE HAW!!! (I'm runny out of excited titles)

I got a 500 on my math test!!! HAZZAH AND YEEHAW! and a whole lot of sqizzles!

Now I have my GED technically speaking, they just have to mail it to me.
My battery average is 538...exciting stuff!

Here are the scores of my tests in the order that I took them:
Reading--570
Social Studies--540
Science--590
Writing--490
Math--500

Super Crazy!!

YOWZA!!!

Omigosh! I actually passed my writing test!!!!!!!!! I got a 490....I thought I was going to get like a 350-400, but my hope was 500 so I guess I'm a complete failure as a person... ;)
I'll be getting my math test scores tomorrow, and if I pass that one I will have passed all my tests the first time taking them.
I is a happy camper! :D

GOOD NEWS!!

I'm done with my GED tests!!!! I did my math today and I feel like I did a good job...I'll get my scores tomorrow.

And thats all I have to say right now except...................ITS HOT IN TOPEKA!!!

Oh, Boy

I took a math assessment today and I don't think I did very well. Which brings to my next point...I don't think I'm going to do well on my GED math test tomorrow. UGH!!! Does anyone have any advice???

Here we go!

I had an over the phone interview today for my very first job. I'm not entirely sure of WHAT I'll be doing because, first of all, I applied for the city of Portland and secondly, because there is still a job placement phone call that I'll be getting soon (hopefully).
While I was being interviewed the guy that I was talking to kept saying "good", "great", and "perfect" so I think it went well....I don't really know, however, because I've never had a job interview before.

I'm totally not worried about getting a job or getting into school anymore because God is totally here with me and walking me through this and helping me to be patient and just being there for me. I know I wouldn't be all "cool as a cucumber" if it weren't for Him.

The people at the Gateway orientation gave me a reading test just to see where I am. I needed at least a 7th grade reading level....I knew I was higher than that, I ended up getting a 9th grade and higher reading level. I even have the evaluations and an interview scheduled for
next week and the week after.

I very glad my name isn't Eddie McFersomhymer :)

Hazzah!!

New blogs is fun! This is kinda like my new phase blog, cause I'm coming out of one phase in my life and moving forward to something bigger and better! I'm going to an orientation for the Gateway to College thing at PCC today, and hopefully ( Lord willing) I get in. If I do get in I'll get double credits, that is, I'll get high school credits AND college credits. :D
My teacher asked me to write a column in our class newspaper, and she's putting a poem that I wrote in the newspaper too. So I'm kind of getting a teeny tiny taste of journalism at school. Speaking of school, I only have one more GED test (that I'll be taking next Wednesday) and then I will have graduated the ABE/GED program that I'm in.
I'm really learning a lot in school...what a concept! I'm also really excited about what the future holds for me. But I am a little apprehensive too, I mean going straight from home school to college is a big leap. It can be done...and I know that its going to be difficult sometimes and I just need to buckle down no matter how much I feel like doing something else. I need to set my priorities, make a schedule, and then follow it.
But I can't help but wonder........Am I biting off more than I can chew???
