bad day.

so, today hasn't been the best day of my life. but not the worst either. haha, that's for sure.

i didn't make varsity cheer. and i just checked varsity (BIG MISTAKE) so now i don't make anything. cheer is not going to be a part of my life for a while now. i'm doing fall CVYSA, and tryouts are the 18 & 19. i guess i should go with soccer? i don't know. i feel like maybe this is God's way of telling me that he has a better plan. i don't know. i mean, it sucks. but i really think its bs. sorry for anyone this offends, but i do have some self-confidence. and, i think a lot of cheer is bs. and politics. and stupid. i know i will regret writing this later, but right now that's how i feel. and this is for sharing feelings, right? okay? okay.

so, i have a bad headache & puffy eyes.
buttt, it hasn't been the worst day! haha. even though it sounds like itttt. i may still get to go to the beach with amy & ashley earlier this summer, b/c i'm not going to have cheer camp! yayay! haha. and heyy, i may get 100 bucks from kirsten. haha. just kidding. anyways! that's a plus side, and i've definitely had days where there were NO plus sides whatsoever. so yeah.

not the best day, but life goes on.
oh & btw! i did devotionals last night, and i'm going to tonight too! i've stuck with it so farrr. yayy! hah.

good news, good changes!

random thought-move on. God doesn't punish you, Satan does. God wants you to turn in your shame. once you've repented, just move on.
^^thank you meredith wilson and pastor charles for helping me realize that.
we aren't finding anything about cheer out until sometime on monday. i'm going to have my mom checking her email like allll day & texting me if she finds out anything. :] i'm really excited to find out. ahhh, i hope i make it, so bad.

anyways! i have GOOOOD newsss! ashley can go to the beach with me this summmerrr! woohoooooo! :D i'm so excited. it's been this whole thing b/c i couldn't go to the beach with her because of cheer camp, then she didnt think she could go with me, but now she cannnn. :) i'm so estatic! woohoo. hahah.

and, another thinggg. i'm going to try & do a devotional/read my bible every night. i hope this lasts. i need it to. it has to. so yeah, i'll keep you updated on how that goes! ha.

i'm in a really good mood! OH and i'm pretty sure i'm going to this youth thing called "it" tonight at my church. i hope it's good. i really need a youth kinda thing. i've never been into the old one they had at my church. i hope this is a good change.

i'll write later!

what people don't get.

here's what i think people don't get/have never heard before.
none of us are good enough for heaven, for God, for Christ. none of us could ever "do" anything to make us good enough. good deeds are not what get us into heaven. none of us could ever thank God enough for what he did for us. none of us are worthy of his grace, and mercy. but, i mean, God loved us so much, that he sent his son, Jesus Christ down to earth, kind of like a human-form of him, to be a living sacrifice for us, to make us good enough. Only through Jesus can we come to God, only through Jesus can we go through the gates of heaven.

some people may think i'm a freak/may not get this blog. but i just feel like i needed to post it, for some reason, and i don't mind people thinking i'm a freak, i am for Jesus.

i'll write sometime later!

"big fun."

wowww. so my mom just walked out of her room, i'm in the living room, and she has on a shirt that says "big fun." haha. i'm like.."mom, what does the front of your shirt is?" & i'm making sure she NEVER wears that out in public. apparently, it's something about/for barry. btw-my mom is obsessed with barry manilow. don't ever think i've told y'all that. but yeah. i know it's weird. and it gets SO annoying. but oh well. it's like her midlife crisis/outlet. so oh well, we all have our issues. anyways! i just thought that shirt was so hilarious.

yesterday were cheer tryouts! well. you could either go today or yesterday. but i decided i wanted to get it over with on friday. i was realllyyy nervous, i mean. sophomore is an AWKWARD position to be in when it comes to cheer. i didn't know whatttt to check (jv only, both, or varsity only). i ended up just checking varsity. i decided if i didn't/don't make it, i will just do club soccer. (i need to keep a "touch on the ball.") but i think i did okay at least! i thought we were going to have more time to figure out our stunt, & mere and sarah were busy with tiff most of the time. i ended up doing my extension-lib with allison eaddy & mackenzie mull, and chelsea (?) as my back. i wish i did something better, like my scale, but like i said, i didn't have enough time to practice. but i didn't mess up on the cheer or dance! andd, my jumps were pretty good, for me at least. :) but, i don't know when they send the e-mail, i thought tonight, but maybe tomorrow or monday. i'm not sure. but i'm really anxious/excited/nervous. i hope i make it so badddd. varsity would be amazing. wish me luck. <3

this blog is extremely long. i've been on the computer for too long. i think i'm doing someting with jenn tonight :) i hope so! i haven't hung out with her in forever it feels like!

writer later,

music is the amazing.

just saying, i freaking LOVE music. i know everybody does, but yeah. i really do alot. haha, i guess that was a random thought, but uhhh. yeah. i do :)

and i just remembered how amazing Christian music is. that used to be alllll i listened to. like in sixth grade, my parents i guess like brainwashed me or something. idk. but that's just all i ever listened to? and, it really just makes me a in a good mood when i really think about the lyrics. most songs are about sex or something, and i honestly can't relate to that...(yeahhh i gots my v-card) hah. ANYWAYS! i can relate to the lyrics of Christian music. anyone can. so yeah, i've been hitting up some Third Day, Casting Crowns, & Lecrae. <3

i'll write again, sometime.. ha, how specific, right?

fun weekend stuffff.

random thought- i hate anything to do with arcs, chords, secants, tangents, etc.

soo. believe it or not, i'm acutally NOT in computer apps for once! hah.
but i had a pretty fun weekend, & i figured i'd write about it.

friday, i went to watch foard varsity girls soccer play against bunker hill, then i went and picked up amy & ashley. jenn came over later, & we just chilled at my house for the night. hahhh, the most entertaining part was, amy had parenting class, and she had to have a fake baby for the weekend. i swear to goodness, that thing did not stop crying for 2 seconds the whole night. LORDDD! & it sounded real. it was crazy weird. :| *which, i found out today, she made a 7% on that project. hahh.

saturday, i just hung out with amy & ashley. then, i went over to allison's (brother's girlfriend) house to take pics of her & stephen for prom. her dress was sooo pretty & she looked gorgeous. i swear, i should be a photographer, b/c i got the cutest pictures of them ever. then we went to some other girl's house to take more pictures. it was humid, and long, and CROWDED.

then my parents dropped me off at rachel's! we hung out for a while, then went to charles' for like a bonfire/party thing. it was real funnn. we played basketball/soccer, jumped on the trampoline, hung out by the fire, played air hockey & foozeball, danced/listened to music, then went on a walk through the woods. hah. :) it was a fun nighttt! me & jenn went back to rachel's house for the night.

sunday, we woke up and i had this hugeee breakfast. then we went to the spa & swam/got in the whirpool. it was pretty coolll. i went home and just chilleeeddddd.

as for how i'm doinggg? pretty good. i think this weekend might have some exciting stuff.. (wink wink) hahah. idk. there's a chance that something might happen. & i'm pretty stoked. ok! well we'll see.

write laterrrr,

saturday-i'm running around with my mom to take pics of stephen for prom, then going to snap a pic. with kirk. then going over to rachel's house for the night w/ jenn. i think we're going to some bonfire? i'm real excitedddd. but we'll see how it goes.
