wow, So I haven't blogged since November 24, 2010. . NOVEMBER 24 2010! That's like, almost a month and a halffff! Woah, It's whatever though. I never really have anything to blog about.
hmm. ...what's new, what's new. . Oh, I did switch to regular chemistry for second semester! I love it, it's a huge weight lifted from me because I don't have to constantly worry about honors chemistry. Plus, I passed last semester of honors chemistry with a C!! a C!! Can you believe it?! (: I think I had such a difficult time deciding if I should just do regular chemistry instead was because my pride. It definitely got in the way.
That's one thing I have noticed about myself the past few months. I tend to have a lot of pride when it comes to certain things. I am tryyyyinnnggg to work on that, but it's not easy. Also, their are different types of prides. Not just 'I think I am so much better than you' pride. I have the pride where I don't want to try new things or whatever because I don't want to make a fool of myself because I care what people think. Too much. Surprisingly. Well, once I get to know the person, I don't care so much. Like my best friends Marisol, and Heather, I can be my WHOLE self around them. All the time. I love that. I think I am kind of going off subject, but I don't care. This isn't English class.
Another thing I realized I do quite a bit, is complain. I really don't like that I do this, but I am going to try and work on this also, I just kinda don't know how. Well, I could just not say anything when I want to complain. But, is there a way I can say what I think and feel with out complaining? Is complaining just in your tone of voice? I don't think it is just in your tone, but I have no clue.
Yeah so today, CHS, has a snow day. A SNOW DAY!? Are. you. kidding. me? We have like 1 inch out there? Okay, am I complaining? I don't know. Anyways. . I really am grateful that we have no school, I love it. <3 BUT, this 1 inch, makes me sad. It's not enough to do anything in. It never is. C'mon, people in Chicago go to school in 2, 3 feet of snow. Now, I'm not saying that we should but, I think Cape in general freaks out over 1 inch of snow way to easily. I think it's hilarious though when people are out driving really super slow and stuff because of the snow, and my dad is just going normal. Cracks me uuuuppp. He is used to this all though, well he is used to worse. He drives in blizzards and up mountains all the time, so that explains it. (:
I wanted to use this snow day for chillin' and having a greattttt day but I have a headache and that doesn't make me feel so great. :/ I will honestly probably be on the computer alllll day drinking tea and hot chocolate and wishing I had friends. So heads up because this might not be the only time I blog today. :P
for right now, I am going to eat lunch, or breakfast, or Taylors favorite, Brunch. (: Yeah, it's definitely brunch. Since I haven't ate breakfast. haha (:
Adios.
. . . . gosh, I hope people actually read this dang thing. .

gahhh?
I really don't know how this whole devotional thing is gunna work out, I am busy with school and lately I have been feeling like poop. I think I have or might be getting carpal tunnel too. I hate it, my wrists hurts, and my fingers, and hand, also my thumb has been going now randomly and the other day my hand did!?! Ugh. Not fun. W.e. So I died my hair last night. . . oh goodness. It is sorta darker on the bottom then the top. Idk what to do . . . but I think I kinda sorta like it!? In a weird way. .
Yeah, I am basically freaking out about my dog. She woke me up last night at around 3 or 4 in the morning crying. Like really crying. It sounded like she was in excruciating pain, Great. This morning she also woke me up again crying and I don't know what's wrong with her. I know I didn't like lay on her, I know fersure. I think the pain though is by her left back leg though. . I'm just going to pray about it. Hopefully if we have to take her to the vet then it doesn't cost a huge amount.
There is a lottttttt more I can blog about, especially my crazy/awful/fun/exciting day and night yesterday, but I don't have time and my hand is KILLING me, No joke. My fingers feel like someone stepped on them with boots. Hurtful boots.
TOMORROW IS THANKSGIVING! <3 So. excited. I will probably blog more later but no promise. I will also TRY to get a devo up. But for now. . adios. (:

Friday Devotional!
Gah, this is really late, considering it is almost saturdayy! :P But hey, at least I am getting it done right?
I will update more tomorrow, I am just putting this devo up and then getting off. I am uuber tired.
FRIDAY:
Do your batteries ever run out of juice? Are there times when you just can't love anymore? It's at this point that God wants to help. We get so confused because we think love is a feeling. If you don't feel ;love then you can't act love. But it's a decision, a choice-which means sometimes it might not fell good. The next time your love tank is empty, pull into the filling station of God's word. Learn what love is from God's point of view. It doesn't have to feel a certain way, but God says that is does act a certain way.
Verse:
Love. . . does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. 1Corinthians 13:4-8
Thoughts:
I am so tired so I'm not really thinking clearly. I can say though that this is so true. People forget what love really is all the time, and they mistake if for a feeling all the time also. I am guilty of this. When I was younger my dad told me a few times that I didn't really love him because of the way I acted. I thought he sounded crazy. I was thinking, what does it have to do with how I act towards him? But actually it has everything to do with that. I am gunna sign off now, goind to bed. Last thing I have to say is I really love this verse!
Goodnight y'all. (: Love youu! <3
Ta Ta For Now.(:

DEVOTIONAL FOR THURSDAYYY HOLLER.
1. I put HOLLER because I think that's how hillbillies would say 'HOLLA.' Ain't it great? Yess, I know.
2. I am posting the devo the night before from now on, in case some people get on after waking up so they can sorta have a reminder to start your day with Christ! (:
THURSDAY:
Have you ever been to the point of saying, "I am not helping anyone else-ever! No one cares or ever even thanks me!"? You feel that you give and give, and no gratitude is ever expressed. Meanwhile, you watch lots of people do far less and get recognized more. It's not fair. They just help to get the recognition and that is it. Their heart isn't in it. Well, that doesn't give us the excuse to quit. We impact people when we give. We only impact ourselves when we want recognition. Give more.
Verse:
"All these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had." -Luke 21:4
Thoughts:
I don't have as many thoughts on this like the last devo, sorry. I can say in all honesty I have had this thought. Haven't we all though? It is hard to not be recognized for somethings but remember we are doing it to glorify God, not ourselves. Like here, we begin to feel that the people who do less are recognized more. Have you thought though that us having this thought, is kinda of saying that we are being like them? I mean, that's how I see it. I can't speak for you! I also think that, maybe we 'think' that they only do these things to get recognition, but maybe they don't? You don't know for sure unless that person has told you. Last, I think this devo kind of ties in with the grace one. They both (well, to me.) have some relation to giving. Agree? Thoughts? Lemme know! (: [btdubs, I lied. I did have as many thoughts :P]
P.S I also think that this post isn't just saying give materialistic things, but we can also give love, guidance, friendship, etc! (: I thinks those things are more valuable anyways!
Speaking of 'giving.' GUESS WHAT? Betcha can't guesssss. :P Thanksgiving is in. . . . 1. . .2. . .3. . .4. . .5. . .6. . .7. . .8 DAYS!!!! WOOT WOOT! (: So. super. excited. By the way, I didn't count today since it's almost overrrr! (:
Ta Ta For Now. ;)
Sleep well, and I hope you all have a WONDERFUL rest, and AMAZING day with Christ tomorrow. <3

Devotional!
I have this idea that I think is prettyyy good. I have a devotional book that I am starting to read everyday, but I had this idea to post the devo I read that day on my blog along with some thoughts, if I have any? haha. I am excited for this, idk why! They are pretty short, but they really have you thinking. I also ask if you have anything on your mind about the post, feel free to leave a comment about it! I would love to hear what God put on your heart! I am so excited. hahah (: I AM STARTING THE FIRST ONE NOW.
P.S If I skip a day, should I do that day plus the day I am on? or just leave it out all together? What's your opinion!? Thanks!
P.P.S haha, Oh, and the book is called 'Extreme Encounters: Start Each Day On The Edge.' It is kind of an older book, (2000) but OH WELL!
Wednesday.
It's a hot summer day. You're dying of thirst, so you run down to the convenience store. You get yourself an ice-cold drink and head to the counter. "1.35 please." You dig into your pocket to pull out one dollar and a quarter, some lint, and a rubber band. Yikes! No more money. You're just 10 cents away. But just when you are about to leave, the clerk says. "That's OK; I have a dime." Wow! She didn't have to do that. Something for nothing! That's grace-getting what you don't deserve. Who can you show grace today? Look for a chance to share this kind of grace with others.
Verse: God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been save). -Ephesians 2:4-5
My thoughts:
Wow. Grace is such a wonderful thing, and God does it everyday. We don't deserve for our sins to be forgiven, but He does it anyway! Because He loves US! How awesome is that? My dad always says how he gives my grace all the time, and I usually don't believe him. After reading this though, he really does! So do our teachers, and our friends! A way I could give grace is you know when there is that really rude person in your class? They always seem to need a pencil or paper and most of the time you don't do anything but sit there? Well, I have decided I will give that person a pencil or a piece of paper. Although they don't deserve it because they were mean or rude or whatever to us, giving them it is giving grace! I am not saying to let that person walk all over you though, this is just an example because I know this has happened to me.
Ta Ta For Now! (:
