Well, this has been a pretty interesting week-slow but interesting...I went to prom on saturday...it was a lot of fun! Not something I would do everyday because if you know me I am not the type of person who likes to get al dressed up but once a year I think I can handle...it was a lot of fun and Chandler was a lot of fun to go with. Right now I am reading a book for English called Life of Pi and atfirst I thought it was going to be really boring but now it gettig to be pretty good even though I am only 65 pages into it. k there is this kid in the book named Pi and he begins to practice mltiple religions-Islam,Hinduism, an Christianity. It really weird because the preist, imam,and the pandit all argue that Pi is the perfect Christian or Hindu or whatever. Pi even says, "The I racd down the hill on the left and up the hill on the right-to offer thanks to Lord Krishna for having put Jesus of Nazereth, whose humanity I fownd so compelling, in my way." At first I started laughing at this because it was so funny that he was claiming to be a Christian but the he was thanking another God for Jesus...then I started thinkingI know I know that doesn't happen to often) It's kind of like real life...not to that extreme where we are practicing more than one religion but there are plenty of times in the past that I have done things that are totally against what God wants for my life...it also reminded me of a time in my life when I thought I had to be two different people...because who God wants me and who others want to be just weren't and still aren't the same...then God showed me it did not matter what others wanted of me but only what he wanted of me which gave me confidence...but there are still times when I struggle with being only the person God wants me to be and nobody else..even in my own home it is a constant struggle to be exactly who he wants me to because I just feel like nobady relates to me but I do thank God that he continues to give strength and confidence to make it through everyday! Well anyway, now that I have blabbered on...next week is spring break and I am going to Indiana for a few dayss...YYYEAAAHHHH!!!.. I am really excited if you couldn't tell! but anyway I have to get back to homework...that reminds of something else that's been going on in the past week or so..school...I don't exactly love RHS and so it's really hard to go through the days but I know that God has put me there for a reason it's just so hard when I can't see that reason..I guess that where trust and FAITH come in....and now I really have to go!

Well I haven't been able to write for a while so I am going to cover the last week.... Last Monday night I went to AJ's house for a fondu style snowball celebrationa and that was interesting because I have only had one other fondu(sp?) experience and the first time and I would have to say I rather like fondu especially the chocalate....mmmmmmmm.......chocalate....and then there was Tuesday...can I just say my second biggest fear is needles...well on Tuesday I gave blood and that was really SCARY but I did it and conquered my fear...props goes out to Kim Couch, Brittany, and Juile for staying there with me and help take my mind off of the blood...and then there was Wed...it started off really good and Kara got baptized which was awesome...but when I got home, I was up in my room and I was sitting on the corner of my bed and grabbed my bible cuz I wanted to look up this certain verse so I open it up and start flipping through pages and out of the corner of my eye I see something moving on the side of my pillow( now if coming face to face with my second biggest fear wasn't bad enough, now I have to some face to face with my FIRST biggest fear-spiders:( ) It was a spider on MY bed...so I ran downstairs to get my mom to kill it (yes I know I am a baby when it comes to spiders) and when she got up there is was gone. Let's just say I didn't sleep in my bed that night....and then there was thursday...I went to the play and that is about all...BUT Friday I was on my way home from school and some kid that is in one of my classes rear ended me and didn't stop, I was a little angry but now I am over it.....and then on Sunday AJ and I got up to talk about snowball at the Family celebration and I was SO nervous but you know I have been thinking (DOn't laugh- I know who would have thought I would start thinking once in a while-lol) you why I think God allows me to be so nervous when it comes to things like that~because that way I will remember I can't do it on my own and need him to be there every step of the way....anyway it just a thought....My prom is this weekend and so it the student life tour and I am REALLY excited....well anyway I have lots of homework to finish still but I needed a break cuz it's 10:30 and I just got home from Kroger an hour ago.........zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Can I just say I just pulled a Kara. I put waffles in the toaster right before I got on the internet and now that are burnt to crisp because I forgot about them(mmmmmm!). My whole kitchen is filled with smoke(and I am not exaggerating) and I am just hoping the fire alarm does go off. ooopppps! Anyway I finally finished that paper...but then I remembered I have to do a presentation also.....and two other projects....oh well...I still keep thinking about that movie and that baby and just I thought someone in my life group said they thought the baby kind of looked like pilotes head. I heard that before I saw the movie and I don't think so but I thought I would put in out there to chew on...or not! Well I have to go to school now.

I am in the middle of working on a research paper right now and needed a little break! I am writing on Louisa May Alcott and how the things she wrote fit into the historical time period that she wrote it in. So basically nothing important...just kidding for all you literature/history buffs out there. I saw the passion of the Christ today....wow...did I say wow...that movie was amazing and at the same time very hard to sit through..I must have covered my eyes just a few time ;) I think the hardest part was knowing that it was true and somebody actually went through that for me. My human nature wants to think that nobody could ever go through that for somebody else but then I remember it wasn't just anybody...It was JESUS. Some of the movie was a little strange to me especially when the devil was carrying a baby that looked like an old man???? Ok well really now I have to go right some more because I am just stalling on a paper that is due tomorrow.
