Well I got back from Chicago on Tuesday, it was a good trip, way too much to write and I always leave things out so if you know me ask me! Got some clothes for Christmas, Santa didn't come to me BC my mom and bill didn't have the money for me to get anything but I gave them money so that they could get my little brother and sister so I guess instead of Santa coming god shown through me so I gave to them what I would have liked me mom to give to me but its ok, I saw my brother's eyes when he got his new bike and it was ok that I got a portable CD player. And Racheal loved her plastic wagon....

I'm at work... It's boring well actually it's not, there is a class in here and they don't know what they are doing on the PC so I have been called all the time to help them... Ah, the work of a librarian, so stressful.. LOL, hahaha... Can't wait to go to church tomorrow... Should be fun.... And inspirational... I missed the Church of Christ, I went to a non-denominational church and it was amazing.... But I miss the singing without instruments that we do.... Well until then have an awesome time this holiday and hope everyone had a great holiday!

Lord,

Thanks for making me who I am, I ask that you give me the words and the patients to be calm with the kids I am helping later today at a community center in Pasadena... I ask this in your name,

Amen

Been busy getting everything done for my trip to CHICAGO today, seeing how it is 12 :21am... I leave for the airport at 7 with Casey and her parents... I'm so excited, I couldn't find a hat so I went to Wally world (walmart) and found a cute black one, it was the last one they had... (god knew I needed one I think...:) ) had to work.. Had some Jewish food (my boss is Jewish) it was good, didn't like the egg stuff though yuck! Not a very big egg person... Got a gift from Daniel and Casey and I shared our gifts... Then went to a movie with a friend.... Then came home finished packing and then went to Wally world... Now I'm home typing to you... This line is for Brock when he's reading this: YOU ARE AN AWESOME YOUTH LEADER AND YOU ARE GOING TO BE AWESOME ON SUNDAY... Hope it gives some encouragement (did I spell that right? Hehe!)

oh yeah, I got my hair cut yesterday... It to my shoulders now... It was in the middle of me back... It looks nice I think.... Yesterday I also took the kids (my brother and sister ages 11 and 1) to the mall to get pictures with Santa... There are a lot of nosy people in the world that aren't shy to tell you when you have messed up, I got countless number of stares and advice on how to raise a daughter... I was pushing my sister through the mall and people were staring and I was like SHE'S MY SISTER!!!!!!! But I doubt anyone would believe it even if I were to scream it out in the mall.... Sigh! Society has turned bad.... God are you coming soon? I want to be out of here and up there with you...

Lord,

I ask for your guidance this week as I go to Chicago and also go out to different places to talk about you lord, I pray that you give me the words to say and the actions to do and the courage to do it also, I ask that you help me minister and help anyone that crosses my path lord... I ask that you simply just use me this week to do your work...

Amen

ok so i wrote this whole big blog and i hit a button and it erased it so i am not writing it again, ill write another day because i have to go shower and then to bed bc i have to work in the am...

night everyone

lord,

i love you

Amen

Cell phones are bad... they go off when you and then they dont ring at all... grrr....

Drama... Drama.. drama.... when does it end!? God is testing me as much as he can tonight, but at the same time he sends angels down to help me out and see him through other people...

i had a friend with me tongiht while i babysat my sister and while we were talking i couldnt help but thank god in my mind for the life that he brought in her... this chick is so amazing and so insightful for her age and her faith grows everyday and she is a blessing even when she doesnt think so.... I love her!!

i saw banium and kolby today at work banium couldnt make it over but that was alright.... jeana was at work too but only bc she got kicked out of her test over guess what!? a cell phone alarm... augh! oh well god is testing her too this week... hope we pass? maybe..?

another day another shopping trip.... x-mas is soon going to be upon us and the joys of making money are nonexistant beacuse if u are like me then as soon as u get money it is gone... sigh, only 2 more people to shop for...

i went to starbucks to meet with kinsy and erica, erica has an ulser... ewwie it was interesting... good conversation, good coffee, what else do u need, but i had to leave early bc i had to go baby sit tongiht... ah that one deserves a whole nother story for the babysiting thing.. lets just say god was really testing me tongiht.. hehe!

today i had my last final test (other than powerwalking) yippie! im almost done for the semester! tomorrow is the progressive dinner but i have to babysit my little brother and sister but its ok stingy and banium might come over... i hope they can make it... monday i go take pics with santa! its a tradition, first it was me till i was 8 then my brother and i till he was 9 and me 17, and now my brother sister and me now... i think we might bring rhino too (he's our winnie dog...) usually we go to pets mark to take him there but i think it would be awesome to take him in baybrook mall for the pics... hehe

there was major dram today with some friends of mine.... i dont have any clue what god is making out of this but alkl the power to him and i just ask for strength and knowledge and wisdom in what to say when they need help...

Lord,

thank you for short tempers and even shorter patients..... lord i ask that u help me to keep my head when things are in a whirlwind around me and that u give me word and encouragement to say and use when people need my help. i thank you for the experiences you have given me so that i may go through life aiding people that are going through things that you put me in, thank you for today lord and everything you brought with it.. love you lord!

Amen

Friends are awesome!

I had to work today, 8am to 1pm but my bosses got us pizza, homemade mmmm mmm good pizza, so i ate, and ate, and did i mention i ate!? hehe anyway.....

Im going to Chicago for about a week next week after FINALS ARE OVER!!!!!! i only have one more final tomorrow mornign at 8am and then im done! whew! a big thing off my chest.... things are going good i guess, mom and i are going round and round about everything, im "just friends" with someone now, what does that mean? i think that 6months from now i probably wont hear from any of these "just friendly" people... i hate having that feeling but... i dont know, anyway, i love frineds because they help you out when u need them,

i called a frined and she begged me to go to the mall with her, so i went and then as we were going to eat dinner i almost got into 2 accidents, one of them i had to jump a median curb so that i wouldnt hit this suv that pulled out in front of me! i think i messed up my inlinement... oh well right... guess god was waking me up for this day... hehe, anyway then i got home, dinner was awesome by the way thank you guys!

when i got home eveything was good, no yellign or fighting, whew another relief.... then i got on the phone and made some plans for when i go to chicago... no everything is finalized i think (hope).

talked to another friend who was feeling bah! so i helped her out and its such an awesome feeling to be told that they feel great now that they got through an obstacle, and with my help! i give all the thanks to God for giving me the words and experiences to help a friend out, im babysiting saturday night so i invited stingy and banium over to hang out with me and my brother and sister... hope they can make it, anyone else who doesnt have anyhting to do saturday night give me a call and we will see what we can do about a movie night or something...

verse: col. 4:13

Well I know it has been a long time since I have written, but I have finals and have been busy, I was chencking my email today and this is what I found: It was really cute, and I liked it.

DIRECTIONS TO OUR FATHER'S HOUSE.
Make a Right onto Believeth Blvd.
Keep straight and go through the Green Light
which is Jesus Christ.
There, you must turn onto the Bridge of Faith,
which is over troubled water.
When you get off the bridge,
make a Right turn and Keep Straight.
You are on the King's Highway - Heaven-bound.
Keep going for three miles: One for the Father, One for the
Son, and One for the Holy Ghost.
Then exit off onto Grace Blvd.
From there, make a Right turn on Gospel Lane.
Keep Straight and then make another Right on Prayer Road.
As you go on your way,
Yield Not to the traffic on Temptation Ave.
Also, avoid SIN STREET because it is a DEAD END.
Pass up Envy Drive, and Hate Avenue.
Also, pass Hypocrisy Street, Gossiping Lane,
and Backbiting Blvd.
However, you have to go down Long-suffering Lane,
Persecution Blvd. and Trials and Tribulations Ave.
But that's all right,
because VICTORY Street is straight ahead!

AMEN!!!!!
