nope.. i'm not dead. still very much alive actually. just so many things have been going on i really didn't have time to update this badboy. but whats the harm in keeping you all updated on my silly little world.

school started back. and its honestly the first time i've not wanted to go, although my classes, even though posing a great difficulty, seems very interesting and i'm excited to learn in them. not many friends in my classes, but thats ok. i'm sure i can manage.

volleyball continues on. a struggle no matter when it happens. thats ok though, i'm just happy to play, or practice. and maybe having a bunch of giggling girls around isn't so bad every once and awhile.

church shall be commencing on wed. and even though i'm wary its an obvious sign from God that its time to just stop being so stubborn. afterall the theme is ignite... can't think of a better word. i've been stupid.. been missing something for awhile, i knew what it was. not that i hate myself or think i'm stupid or ANYTHING like that. its just i gave up... didn't put much of an effort. but i know where my home is. comforting to know its always there.

william leaves/left today. THE hardest thing i've ever had to do. all i could think was this is the last time _________ (insert thing on line). i am going to miss him, and thank God we are staying together or i would be a complete mess. he's the best thing thats happened to me in a long time.

not much else to say... other than my life is basically school/volleyball/homework/church/and well probably more homework. hope everyone is doing fantastic. God bless... have a wonderful week!

"ski trip- amazing, hands down. i'm ready now.. test me."
that was from a few days after we got back from ski trip. funny, God really does listen. guess i wasn't as ready as i thought. but chin up, i realize i'm not in this alone. 


i'm leaving for hunstville very shortly. i'm very excited cause my volleyball team is so much fun. a bunch of insanely odd girls, who are all amazing at volleyball. even though i don't have much of a life because all i ever do is practice and go to tournaments i probably wouldn't have it any other way. i'll be back tomorrow sometime, hopefully allowing myself to go see britt play(i'm going to try really hard i promise). 

and church on sunday.. geeze miss it. 

*snaps of the week*
- 100 on my math test
- totally winnataska material
- missed quite a bit of school for FUN ACTIVITIES
- spent the day with rach
- my sisters were here when i got home
- i gave up some built up crap

God thanks for being so awesome
1 Chronicles 16:8
Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.

isn't it funny, how a feeling/concern/promise/or anything for that matter can be lifted up to God in a flash?

it feels amazing to let go of a lot of the things i was holding onto, it leaves me so much more room for Him, thats the least i can do. afterall He's the one who died on a cross for us. 
        my youth group = my strength


how great is our God
sing with me how great is our God
and all will see how great, how great
is our God.


BY THE WAY: for those who know my lent promises, i've started off with a bang... first verse memorized (i promise this is from memory)
Psalm 62:8
Trust in Him at all times, o people pour out
your hearts to Him, for God is our refuge.

 its was a long day. nothing bad happened at all, but it was a day i couldn't wait to end. 
this four-day weekend was so amazing, but at the same time i had so many committments that i don't really remember all that happened. thursday i couldn't go out cause i had volleyball practice, then i left some-what early on friday for FUN FILLED trip with two of my favorite people in the entire world. we basicall ate, watched movies, layed out in FREEZING weather, and watched more movies. then i had to cut the fun short because i had to babysitt. which i did a stupid thing by giving the girls valentines day gifts w/ chocolate.. WHOOPS. they were crazy the whole night.. but i made forty bucks for two hours. not too shabby
then i went over giselle's that was a funny night. haha... i dunno why but it was just fun. then i had church on sunday followed by a nap and a two and a half hour volleyball practice. then i went out to eat with giselle at macaroni grill, then we went to sarah c's house and i LOVED IT. (i know she is probably going to read this on account of her saying she reads mine). it was kinda hard being there... cause for a few weeks i had lived without her being around as much, then she has to go and be the most amazing person in the world and i get sad. i hate thinking about her not being here.. this is one of those changes i could do without. then i got to spend the night at lauras which we watched greys anatomy and that was so good. then i went shopping with liza and spc on monday, and that was GREAT. once again with two amazing people in my life (wow i'm lucky), i got me a dress.. and its beautiful, and i aboslutely love it. but sorry no one gets to know about it except for a few, its a SECRET! then i had a short skills practice for volleyball it was really good. cause luckily we are speeding up the game and i play better when i can shoot the ball instead of give it so much height. (yall probably don't care about that)

that was my weekend, if you even care to know.

two things i'm tired of:
disappointment
people taking pride in pathetic things

I was so unique
Now I feel skin deep
I count on the make-up to cover it all
Crying myself to sleep cause I cannot keep their attention
I thought I could be strong
But it's killing me

Does someone hear my cry?
I'm dying for new life

I want to be beautiful
Make you stand in awe
Look inside my heart,
and be amazed
I want to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
Just want to be worthy of love
And beautiful

Sometimes I wish I was someone other than me
Fighting to make the mirror happy
Trying to find whatever is missing
Won't you help me back to glory


You make me beautiful
You make me stand in awe
You step inside my heart, and I am amazed
I love to hear You say
Who I am is quite enough
You make me worthy of love and beautiful

wow... not much else to say about that.

things really haven't been to bad lately. its a step up from the completely crappy week that i had last week.

  volleyball is going fantastic. i'm exhausted and practices are freakin killing me, but aghh i love it. odd? oh well, thats just how i am
  church.. i'm much more positive and i know spc is a phone call away and that is really reassuring. there is still that side of me that misses her so much and she's not even gone. i just feel like time was cut so short, but then again i have no clue what God has in store for my life. He completely knows what he's doing.
   school.. haha had a pretty rough start coming back, but i'm really making an effort and i'm going to do well. i'm sure of it! 
   friends.. ha, never even an issue. they always make things better.

i guess thats about it. i just needed to step back and really let God handle everything, its not something i can do alone or at all for that matter. our youth group has really gotten fond of the song into marvelous light.. and i think thats our song for 2006. we see that bright light ahead and for the first time we aren't that scared to follow our hearts and as henry would say carry our crosses and not be ashamed to show what are beliefs are.

thank you God for all you give me.

so.. yeah these past few days have completely sucked. i'm not gonna lie about it.. and its a downer cause i was trying so hard to make 2006 freakishly awesome. cause sadly time doesn't stand still and people will soon be um.. going to africa for short periods of time.

as most everyone knows sarah chandler is gonna be leaving the church. and that really really put a damper on my week. so many feelings came with that news, and i have a better understanding of a lot of what happened, but it still hurts so bad. i know i'm going to get through this.. with the help of my incredible friends, and not to mention eric is so amazing.. and he is going to do so much for our church. its just different for me.. many people have had 'sarahs' in their lives.. and you all know how hard it is to say good-bye to them.. almost like losing a part of you.
(not to mention the day after i found out i was so upset i completely bombed a math test.. oh well)

tonight was pretty good.. saw a movie with laura, coop, and nicole. AGHH so much fun... memoirs of a geisha was amazing.. you have to see it.. I WANT A LIFE OF MY OWN...haha. then we went the the last bit of the oak mtn. v. spain park.. oak mtn won.. then i headed over to cal's.. which was an interesting night where the cop got mad at me and poor cal... i love you. we watched pootie tang.. interesting. haha thats all i can say.. then I, YES ME JENK JENK, beat trey in pool.. *cough cough thanks cal cough cough*. headed home after that.. now i'm basically here.. starving b/c i haven't eaten in oh... nine hours. but i'm so lazy,

why do i feel guilty about this.. when its what i'm supposed to do
