Life in Technicolor

The most unfortunate part of my Thanksgiving break, is having to suffocate myself with ACT Prep information. In truth, blogging, at the moment, has been my only chance to come up for air. Hopefully, word does not get out that I did. In the lyrics of Maroon 5, "Is there anyone out there, cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe?!" Life lately, well, for starts, I have had to do more than one person can accomplish, furthermore, my youth minister and choral director all have left within the same year. It's really nothing to get all torqued out about, but for a small town with severely bore some activities, you take advantage of all the little things. It's been..I don't know, two months, maybe, since our choral director (I'll refer to him as Mr. Bear out of courtesy and respect) was relieved from work.

Honestly, no one saw it coming, in fact, people were beginning to think Mr. Bear was "on a role," if you will. Personally, I thought Mr. Bear was permanently going to stay, because of all the wonderful things he brought into our choral program. Mr. Bear was an exceptional director and friend, and no one can replace him and all the memories he made at our high school. What's worse, is that he was also our show choir director, and without him, the show seems to have fallen apart. We no longer I have our choreographers either, due to being on Mr. Bear's side of the argument, and they don't want to help out, if Mr. Bear is not reinstated. I fear that it is extremely unlikely that he will. I don't think much of the public sees that we are a military covered in glitter, and, in truth, that's a bit of an understatement. I also don't think that many people see that we are a family, and the sweat and blood and tears all majorly contribute into our show to not only be a fantastic performance, but a memorable one. I wish that our school board could see that....but enough venting about that. Honestly, tears are coming up right now. Oh, right, my youth minister. Now that we're on a depressing subject, my youth minister, let's just refer to him as Mr. That Guy--his favorite saying--found a better job at Trinity Pres. in Montgomery, Alabama. I guess it's for the best, since God says that we need to reach out to all unbelievers. Lately, with the state I'm in, that news destroyed this "emotional fort," I've built for myself. This town seems to be tormented by all this mass chaos.


It NEVER ends!!
P.S. Yes, I did take those pictures...

You, And All That You Do..

In this world, there is only one You.
You have your very own ways.
You've got your own walking shoes in this world.
You are the only one who smiles and laughs exactly as you do.
You are the only one who lives and thinks exactly as you do.
You are your very own you.
In this world, there is only one you.
You've got your own dreams and your ideas too...



In this world, there is only one You.

How Can A Flower Have So Much Power?

Like a rainbow, you bring color to ordinary places. Like a sunset, you add brilliance. Like a river, you know the way. With the patience of the forests, you wait for your dreams to grow. And like the most special flower in the garden..

...you grow stronger and more and more beautiful everyday.

The Strange Thing About Love..

The strange thing about love is that it can make your heart beat faster, and the strange thing about love is that it can make you laugh and then cry. The strange thing about love is that it's uneven: in this life, you may be loved by someone you don't love back, and you may love someone who doesn't return your love. The strange thing about love is that it's always worth it, and the strange thing about love is that it's always somewhere in your life. The strange thing about love is that you have to believe in it for it to be true, and the strange thing about love is that, even if it's a different story than you expected, somehow it all works out.

Love is strange, isn't it? But trust in it...and you will be all right.

It's a Crime How I've Spent Oh So Little Time..

The sky is the limit, and I just want to float..

Free as a spirit, and I'm journeying home..

Cut the strings and let me go..

.........................I'm weightless..........................

I guess the weight of the world really does hold us down, because I've been way too busy to bother to sit, write one of my "adventures" down. To cut to the chase, I'm past halfway through my summer, and I haven't done anything exciting other than hanging out with friends or spending time at the lake. Wow! I can't believe it! I'm almost a junior..I have to keep reminding myself, because I most certainly don't act it. I'm ready to go back to school, but time has flown by way too fast. I'm not even as tan as I was last summer. I still have one more vacation before it's all said and done, and that's R.Y.M. It's a church youth group retreat to the beach. I'm soo excited! It really is my last time to soak up the sun. Ready? Set? Ready! Let's go!

Oh the Zoo! and Long Hair too?

YESSS! The countdown's begun! There is only 8 dreadful days left until I get my frying pan, well I mean Tangled DVD. It is released March 29 precisely, and I don't think I can bear waiting any longer! Unfortunately, the release date falls on a Tuesday, but this will not put a damper on my spirits. This just means, that I have all weekend to sing-a-long and memorize all the lines in the film! MARVY!! (my new word--short for marvelous) There is more good news!! This weekend, other than my chic-flick, I'm bound for the Zoo. Yes, dare I say, I'm looking forward to it. I'll be accompanied by my good friend Camie, and the two of us will be inseparable for the weekend.. Just so you know, to prevent venting about my daily experiences, I've permanently decided to only blog on Saturday's ..until then.. Toodles!

Forgive me...

Oh how I've missed plenty of opportunities to tell you all the wonderful things that have happened to me! I've been so terribly busy, that I've neglected to update my blog! Nevertheless, I have found the time to share my latest tales...

Why yes, it's true, I've gotten those trendy bangs!I usually spend a lot of time pondering on how I could avoid following the crowd, but, oh the cleverness of me, I chose straight across bangs, instead of those "all the rage" side swept bangs. No offense, of course, to all those bright girls with side bangs. It was a big change for me, see how I mostly curl my hair. Oh well! No harm done! I get to play a new character now, and maybe bring out a little rebellious streak.......well.....maybe not! :)

Eyes over here now..
    Anyways, last Thursday, my aunt, sisters, and I ventured out in the BRT*, desperately searching for Easter dresses and shoes. We went everywhere! Scurrying from Tupelo to Pontotoc, to New Albany, and back to Tupelo. I came back with only one dress.. :( However, I was entertained throughout the whole day, by none other than my sister, Britton. This picture is the masterpiece she left for our poor waitress in New Albany. Obviously, she was left a great tip, see how Britton wrote, in all caps, "LARD" with the ketchup bottle.




NOTE: BRT stands for Big Rolling Terd, but it is incredibly rude and embarrassing for my mother to hear her young ladies call her suburban a "potty word" in public. Therefore, she told us to abbreviate the name, or else...

This Week will make me Weak!

Before I begin, Happy Valentine's Day, I hope it was wonderful. Now I should be writing a paper for tomorrow, but I couldn't resist the temptation to update my followers about what's happening in my life at the moment. So far, nothing romantic or life changing, but I do have showchoir competition this weekend. As it turns out, I also have surgery next week too, joy.... Looks like I'll be the new handicapped, and sadly, no knight in shining armor to walk me to each class... :( But, it'll work itself out..I think. Unfortunately, Cinderella turns back into a pumpkin at 10:00, and has yet to write another paper due tomorrow, so I must bear you all, farewell!

Roses are Red, Violets are Blue....Happy Valentine's Day to You!
