Tweet Graduation!! YAY..Yep..in a little more then a month I will be graduating. No more highschool..ever again!! I am so excited! I love my friends to death and I will miss seeing them every day..but I can’t wait to be done!! I can see the light and I know it’s coming.. April showers also brings senior trip, eagle fit, jr.sr. and exam week which means my days of actually attending school are few as well..I think I have maybe 20 days of actual school left..whoo hoo!! What else…well, I am just ready for May to get here!! just a thought..Amanda

Tweet It is a rainy day today. And I’m not much a fan of rainy days-although I have many fond memories associated with them. However, when it is cold and rainy all I want to do is sleep and watch TV. It very much serves as an energy zapper.. I hate running errands in the rain..the constant getting in and out of the car in the rain. But if it is warm and rainy then I love it. Perhaps some of my favorite times are in the summer when it is warm and raining and you can go play in the puddles or run through the raindrops.. (I’ll admit, I’m…

Tweet God gave me what I want. Or what I thought I wanted. It was the thing I had dreamed about for so long, and finally it was mine. But now I didn’t want it..I had taken things into my own hands and had determined that I knew better-only to realize that all along God had only wanted the best for me, and wasn’t withholding something from me that I needed. Isn’t that how it always happens? we want something so bad and God finally says, “Ok, you can have it,” and we promptly realize that God did know better and it really wasn’t what we wanted. This is a…

Tweet oh man..I would die for a snow day. If I had one right now, I would write my senior thesis and memorize my speech. Those two things need done more then anything, and I just can’t seem to find the time to do them. As it is, right now it is 11:00 p.m. and I still have chemistry homework to do, packing that needs done, 5 verses to memorize, and I would like to watch survivor..but alas, that is not going to happen. So I could really use a snow day. I would also read if I had a snow day. I am in the middle of two different…

Tweet Wow-the greatest lesson I’ve learned. That’s a tough one-I don’t honestly know if I can narrow it down to just one lesson. I mean..can you really pick out the greatest lesson you’ve learned. I will give it my best effort. I think the greatest lesson I have learned this year is..(drum roll please:))…trusting God is always best. It may seem like a simple lesson, but too many times this year I have taken things in my own hands and seen great consequences from it. Too many times I have tried to chart my own course, only to end up lost and without a road map. But God has been…

Tweet I don’t know if I would.. First of all, I have no idea who I would want to be. I think it might be kinda fun to be someone famous-you know, live in Hollywood, and have a huge bank account at arm’s reach. But since I only have a day, I don’t think I would want to even taste that because then I would just want more of that lifestyle. Sometimes I wish I could be someone else just so I could get in their head-but would if I were someone else, wouldn’t it be my thoughts in their body? (I know I’m thinking about this way to hard..)…

Tweet I Had an Old Box…(ec) I had an old box, it was an refrigerator box-one of those really big ones! I guess maybe it wasn’t really really old, but it was from our new refrigerator and I got this brilliant idea to turn it into a house. So in the middle of my living room I cut and colored and added fabric to turn that old box into a wonderful house. I could stand up in it..but I could crawl around and I was little so it didn’t bother me. I loved that house..I played in it for many days. But it was cardboard and eventually it was falling…

Tweet My Dream Profession-extra credit I have always wanted to be a fashion merchandiser. They are the people that travel to all the fashion shows and purchase styles for companies to sell. Ever wondered why stores sell certain things and not others? That’s where a fashion merchandiser comes in. It’s not very practical for having a family due to all the travel. But I think it would be the coolest job. They make really good money too-especially if you work for a company that is full of money. Just think, you would have the power to choose what a company sells and what they don’t. And since I love to…

Tweet One Food I Couldn’t Live Without-(ec) Hum..how about all food?! I don’t want to live without any of! Ok, well, all joking aside,I think I will have to say peanut butter. I have taken a peanut butter sandwhich in my lunch almost every day since 5th grade, and if for some reason peanut butter was gone, I don’t know what I would do. I don’t think I could eat anything else every day! Although I usually cannot stand to eat the same things over and over, I have never felt that way towards peanut butter. I could eat it every day and it would never get old. While I…
