Seeing as how it's been a long time...

Hello!
It has been an extremely looong time since i've been on the computer, let alone have time to even blog about anything! so here we go!!
On friday night...i got to drive my daddy's big F3.50 with 20" wheels home from Bob Turner's....that thing is awesome!
second saturday was great, we went to cuidando los ninos...i pray i spelled that right! and painted a kitchen and helped them move and what not...doing stuff they can't do for themselves...i think that's like the 'sencond saturday moto' no? anywho...that was a blast, i stood on counter-tops to get to the really high walls (and GOD temporarally took away my fear of hieghts i think!) and i also cleaned the tops of very dusty cabinets!
then my daddy and and i took marissa to my house, where we attempted to dye my hair...it didn't really work, however, my hair is a tad bit darker...no one noticed though, i've decided that next weekend or sometime this week i'm going to try again...but i'm going to go and get a really dark brown...mom says it'll make my eyes pop...i'm trusting her on this one guys!
umm...hmm i don't really think there is a whole lot left to say except that you all should pray for me come finals week! oh...and the vans store can't hire my until late june...uhhh...lame! they've been telling my i'll get a job 'soon' since march!
ta ta!

Yes, those are my eyes, and I want a tattoo there...

I got this program called GIMP, it's like photoshop, but free, and kinda wierd to work with, but i did some playing, and i figured out how to do a few things! wooo...uhh...yeah, so that's where that picture came frome, let me know if you like it or not.
Last night i watched "accross the universe" and it was really trippy, over all a good movie, but awkward and a little disturbing for like 3 scenes...haha, i really like the music though, and yes i do have a new appreciation for the songs that are from the soundtrack that I adore!
speaking of music, if you like the band Mae, you will love Deas Vail...very very bueno! and i'm done...
peace out eh

Amplify...Louder. Stronger. Deeper

I went to Jasmyne's church, Eastgate on Friday for an all worship night. We arrived there around 7 and got started about 7:30. Jasmyne's family makes up more than half the worship band, it's awesome. She plays lead acoustic, her brother Ashton plays bass, and her father Pastor John, plays drums and keys. And then there are other high schoolers who play electric and sing. Anyway, the worship was awesome, and emotional for a lot of people, myself included. The Holy Spirit was definitely in that place. We sang for a long time, and the student pastor came up and said that if anyone wanted to be prayed over because they feel the Holy Spirit, to come up in the front so they could pray over us. I went up because i felt so on fire for GOD. His wife began to pray over me and in mid-sentence she just kinda stopped and was praying in a different language! It was so awesome because i felt the Holy Spirit hit me hard and i just kinda sank to my knees. I was so overwhelmed by GOD it was...indescribable feeling really. then a girl came up to me, i had no idea who she was, and said that GOD had basically told her to tell me that he will never leave of forsake me, which is something i have been struggling to understand my whole life...and it was so awesome. Then the youth pastor was...prophicing...to people and praying over people and we were all worshiping and praying aloud...it was like a choir of radical Christians...amazing. after all of this amazingness, Jasmyne's dad spoke of making disciples and that was a really good sermon. we worshiped more, and the second time of worship it was like...a whole new experience of worship. i felt GOD's fire in my heart, and for the first time in a long time, i sang my heart to GOD like he always intended us to worship Him...we ended the service at uh...10:30...pm....then we went to IHOP, and i went home and got home around midnight 30...a very good night indeed.

no job yet...

Well i had my interview...and it went really well....because Andy interviewed me! whooot! uhhh...he said if it was up to him, and it's not unfortnately, he would hire me right away...but they need to 'get ride of the people who suck' says Jamie, the store manager...so for right now, i'm not working at Vans, but i have a steady Monday night job babysitting for Chris Drier, and i get $60 a month...plus side jobs here and there...anywho...that is what's going on in my life right now! haha...

a life...worth something to someone

i am the most happy-go-lucky,
loud-mouthed,
craziest person you will ever meet...

or that's how i used to be.
then something happened,
GOD was not the most important person in my life.
i fell so far away, and hit rock bottom
i cried a lot,
i almost killed myself,
i hurt a lot of people i cared about,
i messed up so bad, i felt unworthy of forgiveness
but someone forgave me...
his name is JESUS,
and it took so long for me to open the door of my icy heart
but GOD pried it open
and did a lot of redecorating...

now i'm the new me
a better me
a complete me
a me that wants to live for GOD
i'm thankful for all my friends
i'm thankful for all my family
for all the people who love me
and put up with me
thank you
from the bottom of my heart...
i love you all
above all, i love GOD
and fall more in love with him each and every day...
