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!
