reasons...

Reasons....

"Every baby that is born into this crazy, messed up world has a reason.
And every child that grows up in this crazy, messed up world has a reason.
Every parent that is home schooling their child/children as i write this has a reason for doing so.
And every student that goes day to day, year after year to a brick and mortar school has a reason to be going there.
You are reading this now. for a reason.
You may not see it now. I know I don't. But God has a REASON for everything and everyone.
I think...well i know...that we can't just sit here. on our butts. in this crazy, messed up world. and live like theres going to be a tomorrow. Because like i said before...we're all here. for a reason. And its our personal jobs to find out what our reason is.
Have you found your reason yet?"

we're finally here!!

Hey!
Finally!! We've made it through the many loooong days!! and the super smelly car rides!! i can officially say that i've survived an entire weekend road trip with my whole family!! (dog included) *in fact...i should have a shirt that says that!* Haha!...i'm just sooo glad to be here! in the new (rental) home!! [=

not much has happened since we got here. Christmas was...different! We had another family come over Christmas night for dessert....that was fun!! Lots of laughs! We played Cranium! (thats the best game to play with 3 teen guys and 2 moms...btw)

i've been talking to some of my friends in AZ!! (right now my goal is to never loose contact of my AZ peeps) not much has been too action packed with them either...i'm just glad to hear that they all had a great Christmas!! [=

Now...being a 16 yr girl and having girlfriends around my age...the first question that your friends are going to ask -besides how are you?- is "what is your room like??" Haha! then its been "have you met any cute guys yet??" and lastly....."your so lucky you get your own bathroom!" hahah! Again, this is only when i've been talking to my girlfriends! [= whenever i'd be talking to my guy-friends they'd ask about the weather and if i like snowboarding!! haha

I'm starting school on the 4th of jan. which is relatively normal. so my friends will be just as busy as i will be with starting up for the 2nd semester! the #1 question that i've been getting about school is "are you looking forward to it??" ....im going to be totally honest by saying no. but again...thats normal! =/ i'm looking forward to meeting new people and making new friends....but as of now. i'm not.

Earlier today i was feeling somewhat down. Feeling like i'm on the "out-side-lookin-in" while i was going through my closet and pulling out old bible verses that my youth group leader gave me i found a verse that hit me between the eyes...and it was the perfect verse for how i was feeling. then i came across a quote. it was so good that i just had to put it up on facebook! and it was "going through hard times just makes you all the more stronger". I really liked that! [=

Dec. 7,2009

Today is Monday...aka...the first day of a long adventure!!! ALOT has happened since I last updated this!

1) its already December and my "school" KEYS is nearing its CHRISTmas break

2) i've had my permit for a long while now but i still haven't graduated from the neighborhoods

3) my hair is sooo long that i'm starting to go crazy

4) i just got my braces off today!

5) hmmm.....? Oh yeah! i'm moving!

Right now i'm chillaxin in the classroom with my mom and dog waiting for the packers to leave. (we're in their way where ever we are...) as i sit here i can't help but think about a few things. How this week is going to go. Moving. My teeth feel really smooth! Moving. My poor puppy is so stressed out. KEYS on Thursday. Leaving my friends in AZ. Making new friends in TN. Starting school in January. How super-dee-dooper extremely tired i am! and last but not least....Moving.
