A Few Thoughts About My First Semester At CBC

YAY!!!! Finals are over! Fall Semester 2013 is complete!!! I can now sleep all the time!!!!
HaHa As you can guess I'm slightly excited about the completion of my fall classes. However, I also thoroughly enjoyed this round of classes and teachers. It was my first time experiencing college life while living away from home and comfort, away from almost everything familiar. Thank the Lord I had Brain and Erin to keep me company, give me support and listen to my crazy thoughts. There were many nights I'm sure they wished I came with a return address! It has also been a blessing to be closer to my Dad's family and to be able to spend time with them more often than before. I have found many new friends in the students at CBC, which was something I had little hope for since I predicted I would keep to myself for at least the first year. My teachers have also shown themselves to be a source of support in both my music and spiritual trials. Although I am happy I survived this first semester, I can't wait to jump in to the craziness again next semester!

I must also say that the support I have gotten because of this blog and my Facebook account from my church family back home not failed to lift my spirits. I can't tell you how happy it makes my when I get likes or comments on the things I post. Thank you guys sooooo much!

I have been challenged with constantly living a life solely focused on God. Throughout the years, I have picked up hobbies and habits that have slowly caused a rift between God and me. I ask for your prayers as I fight to relinquish things which are hindering my spiritual walk and reinstate God as my only source of significance and security.

Keep an eye out as I plan to make some videos on Facebook about the Alive Conference that is coming up! If you are a teen or a parent of a teen/teens I recommend joining/following Alive Youth Conference on Facebook or @alivebmaa on Twitter for information! This is my second year going as a sponsor and I absolutely love it! Hope to see ya there!

Love you and God Bless!!

(Sorry this post is so serious stuff, but unfortunately life isn't all laughs. But hopefully my next post will be lighter :) )

I'm Bored

Well as the title suggests I am writing this post from boredom. Which means that the chance that reading this will waste three minutes of your life is highly possible, but it will fill 10 minutes of my boredom so enjoy.

I had one of the worst night sleep eve in the history of my life last night. I probably won't experience a worse one until I have a 3 month old crying in the crib, a 5 year old screaming at the monsters in their closet, a 10 year old playing video games until late and a 17 year old trying to sneak out to some party, all while my husband snores soundly with the aid of ear plugs. (OH how I look forward to such chaos!) However, for right now I'm going to complain about last night as it was pure torture. I had had a headache building through out the day, but I refused to take any medicine telling myself to just stick it out. Plus I noticed that I didn't pay attention to the headache when I kept my mind occupied, so naturally I started looking up videos on YouTube. After a while I started looking up clips from Doctor Who. Now quite a few of my friend are HUGE fans of Doctor Who and they had encouraged me to watch it, but I was just never bored enough to check it out. Yesterday, however, I got the wild hair to see what the Doctor was all about. That curiosity led to watching seven hours (8 episodes) of Doctor Who before going to bed. *sigh* I wonder if I will ever learn that watching intense action, suspense or sci-fi movies or tv shows gives me intense, wild dreams that keep me tossing and turning through out the night. In my dreams I was reliving everything that had happened in the episodes I had watched, but they were cut into tiny segments, jumbled up and squished together again. I had no idea what was happening to me or what was going on, but whatever was happening in my dreams was not conducive sleep. On top of that, my headache continued to grow to the point that I wanted to throw up. By the time 5 a.m. came around I decided I wasn't going to my first class so I could try to get more sleep. What a good decision that was! I ended up sleeping for a few hours really well and am now feeling hundred percent better! I will continue watching Doctor Who, but not so close to my bedtime.

Well choir is about to start so I better head out! Love ya and God Bless!

All Is Vanity

Good Evening!!! I had some time before I had to go to bed, so I figured that I would write a blog. Dani, my good friend, has gotten on to me for not posting regularly. I will give my best to become regular. Hence I bought some Activia today. BWAHAHAHAHA!! Just kidding, I have no problems with.... never mind. Speaking of which does Activia actually work? I'll never try it so it doesn't matter if it does or doesn't.

I have been very humbled and grateful for the positive response that my latest videos received! It is on YouTube now under "This is My Story" and "This is My Story 2" or on my Facebook page if you haven't seen it. There isn't much of a back story to that song. I was chilling at home one day singing nonsense to myself and the song just started to form. Usually when that happens I never write it down and forget it, but since this one was so funny I couldn't let that happen. Now I am not making any promises, but I will try to post more videos like that. BUT ITS A HUGE "TRY."

I feel like I should talk about something substantial in the paragraph, since that is usually the outline my posts take, but I have nothing substantial to talk about. *thinking.......something serious.......still thinking.....oh shiny......is that a bug.....no think of something serious.....do a little dance for Africa.....make faces at Lizzie(my doll)....oh forget it* As in the words of Solomon "All is Vanity," so there is nothing serious to mention.

Ah! So I have been thinking that to expand my posts I would like to answer my readers questions. The questions can cover any topic such as myself, politics, morals, bible, church, media, etc. So start asking! I'm bored!

Well I'm headed to Texas tomorrow with the CBC Singers. Pray for our safety and that our singing blesses those who hear. Love ya and God Bless!

Well Hi There!

Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow!!!! My computers working again!!! As you can guess that is why I haven't posted anything recently. I could have used my phone, but I prefer to use my computers keyboard. I have temporarily given up on videos because something always goes wrong. I don't need that kind of negativity in my life. I received another letter from home the other day! It made me so happy. :) Many thanks to those who have kept in touch with me through letters, texting, calls and Facebook!

I don't have a lot to talk about..... How about them Cards? WAIT I WAS KIDDING! DON'T TELL ME. I could care less. I respect all of you sports fans, but I refuse to lower myself to your level. No disrespect :P The only sport teams I will truly care about are those my brothers are in. That's it. Unless some genius creates a sport with musical instruments and vocal chords. Then I'll become an athlete. Of course my former voice teacher claims that musicians are already athletes because of the breath control and such, but I don't want to start an all out debate. So I'll just say that I agree and everyone else is wrong.

I'm starting to feel that losing weight is becoming a reachable goal. I feel thinner everyday. Even if I have not been exercising and eating properly. My mind has mastered croping out the fat when I look in the mirror. But seriously, I am more determined to lose weight now than I have ever been. So pray I'll stop napping and exercise instead!

Hey guys I have written some new lyrics to the song Blessed Assurance! I'm going to be looking for a way to post it so keep your eyes open! Love ya and God Bless!!
