F-R-I-E-N-D-S-H-I-P quotes

Recently my mom helped me update my blog by creating a play list for me! YAY! i still have noo idea how to add songs though. If you haven't listened to the songs yet they all have something to do with FRIENDSHIP. So the other night i went on the one and only Google and looked up friendship quotes. Here are a few that i found that i really liked:

"A real FRIEND is hard to find
difficult to leave, and impossible to forget."



"Memories last forever and never do they die,
true FRIENDS stay together and never say good bye."



"best FRIENDS ...
are the kind of people who laugh at a joke three times,
Once when it's told, the second time when they explain it,
and [five minutes later]....when we finally get it!!"

KEYS football games!! back in session!!






at my co-op football is the famous sport. every Monday and Thursday at lunch a group of boys and girls go out onto the field and play football. (they play the whole lunch hour then when it's time to go back to class they start eating.....it's kinda funny.) but i don't blame them! its what you want to call their "PE" or "recess" time....hehe....i don't play but i like to sit up against the wall with my friends and watch them.

busy week.....

what is LIFE ABOUT???......

This past week was one of those "LIFE" weeks for me. i was thinking about life a lot and not just my life alone but other people's lives.... like my friends'. So i talked to my mom about whats been going on in MY life personally and she gave me this really good quote from some website. it's about LIFE....no duh...and it totally relates to teens! i really like it! i thought i'd share it with you guys!

"life isn't about keeping score. it's not about how many people call you and it's not about who you've dated, are dating, or haven't dated at all. it isn't about who you've kissed, or what sport you play, or which guy or girl likes you. it's not about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin or where you live or where you go to school. in fact its not about grades, money, clothes, or colleges that accept you or not. life isn't about if you have lots of friends, or if your alone, and it's not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. but life is about who you love and who you hurt. its about how you feel about yourself. its about trust, happiness and compassion. its about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance, and building confidence. its about what you say and what you mean. its about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. most of all, its about choosing to use your life to touch someone else's in a way that could never have been achieved otherwise. these choices are what life's about."

*PHEW*....Lol....i'm done!!!! YAY!!! finally!! soooo?....what do you guys think?!?!? you like it?!?!?isn't it good?!?!?

tonight........

Tonight I went to church feeling......
Tired.
Mad.
Upset.
Grumpy.
Worried.
Stressed.
and
Unloved.
I walked in the worship center feeling.....
Ok.
still Mad.
still Sad.
still Grumpy.
still Worried.
still Stressed.
still Unloved.
Then as I walked down to the pew I was feeling.....
a little Happier.
a little Calmer.
a little less Stressed.
a little more Loved.
Then I walked down toward my friends and my one friend gave me a HUGE hug and then I was feeling.....
Happy.
Accepted.
i forgot all about tomorrow.( Stressed)
and i felt way more Calmer.
and a lot more Loved.
I was still not quite back to "normal" though, I still was feeling stressed out over my test, tired of studying all day, and grumpy because of my long day and (lets just say..."off"..morning.) All that "stuff" from this morning was still ringing in my ear when I was in church and it continued to ring during worship and all during the announcements I could not concentrate the whole entire time....well at least until the message. Tonight was different in the sense was that we didn't have our usual pastor speak to us in person. He was out for the night so instead we watched a video of the guy who spoke this morning.....his name was Drave Dravecky. He was a major league pitcher for the Giants and the Padres. He had a tumor in his left arm......aka....his pitching arm and had to have it removed. =( He talked about Contentment in all circumstances. It was a really good message!! i LOVED it!! it really hit home for me tonight! then after the video was over they had a little interview with some of my friends about contentment and what it means to them. their storied were really good too!!! i LOVED everything they had to say! it was really eye opening for me personally to hear. I'm glad i went tonight.

the bright moon



These are two pix of the bright and beautiful moon that is shinning high in the sky tonight! It looks a lot better in real life! my camera was being really dumb and wasn't working the way i wanted it to so the pictures are kind of blurry...hehe...sorry bout that. =0
