what can i say... we're just that good..

2007-10-27T19:31:00.000-07:00

so i looked back at a few posts from before and i noticed that tif and i tried to convince the rents to let us get another dog..
well...
they went on a trip for a month to asia land.. and we brought home a dog while they were gone..
and he's staying. He's an absolutely gorgeously friendly dog that i love and his name is Kairo.
kairo and kiera... oh dear...
but yea.. i think we realised that it wasn't so much our convincing that got him his permanent res in our house.. it was just that my parents fell head over heels for him as soon as they saw him..
it makes no difference to us.. we get to keep him =)

thanks...

hahah january 16th was so long ago...now it's like what? July 27th?? hahah so i realise i haven't updated in a very long time but you have to give me some slack..the few times i wanted to actually update i forgot my username so i couldn't sign in and it wasn't until last night that i actually took the time to receive the emaill..anyways! yea so now i know my user name... but wow so much has happened since my last post. for one thing i made it into the Earl Haig arts program so i'll be going there next year...ahhh so excited!!! i can hardly wait, and it's gonna be pretty fun cuz i have a few close friends going with me. soo yea..it's all good. uhm what else, school finished, and ahhhhhh i went on an
*AHhhhhhhh* MAZING trip! from May 23rd, which was my sister's bday, until June 13th, i was out of school for a cruise around the mediterannean...and after spending 3 weeks there i still don't know how to spell it..meh. so yeah, 15 days on sea and a few extra days in london and greece, plus flying days, equals up to 3 weeks of NO SCHOOL! it was awesome...and i managed to do all the catch up assnmnts and everything else before i left. we saw 10 different places...let's see uhmmm....athens (Greece), cadiz (Spain), civitevecchia (rome, Italy), london (England), lisbon (Portugal), barcelona (Spain), kusadasi/ephesus (Turkey), le havre (Paris, France), and marseille (France), Monte Carlo (Monaco), Valleta (Malta)...haha...thanks tiff. we also saw some volcanoe that i can't spell the name of so forget that...hahaha...what else happened....uhhmmmm....i went back on av! yey! that was tons of fun...and i'm pretty sure i'm missing like a million events but you must excuse me because of my horrid memory. Another HUGE thing that started was softball...yey! softball season is always the highlight of my summer...and this year i'm playing for DUNAMIS! YEYYYY GO DUNAMIS!!!! ...that's pronounced doo-nah-miss...NOT du-nah-mees...hahah vanessa...we're doing pretty good this season so yea...gj everyone gj! and oh yes...history class...summer school sucks...no kidding. it's so boring. ahhhhh! but luckily it's only like an hour and 15 mins so i'll survive. it also ends in about a week and a half but then my exam is RIGHT after it soooo yeahhhh....

okay so this weekend, as in tomoro and sat and sun, there's summer retreat and i know there's going to be a lot of changes...i'm praying for a change especially in the bethel ages...and yup a whole revolution would be nice...but yeah...anything's good..hhehe...i know it'll be tons of fun but i guess more details to tell when i come back?

so one last thing, my sister and i are trying to convince our parents that getting another dog would be a good thing...and it's not like we just WANT another one..but it's better for kiera (who is an adult now! yey!) since starting pretty soon no one's home all day most days so she's alone for 8 hours and tears apart our house..which isn't so good...so hopefully another dog will keep her occupied and they'll have fun and she won't be so bored? We don't know but there are a LOT of things to take into consideration and lots of things my parents are picky about...so we're praying and hoping to convince our parents and find the right dog. but yeah...i think that's about it for now? haha in about 4 months or so i'll come back and update again! yay! haha...

drama....

2006-01-16T15:59:00.000-08:00

ahhhhh....life is soooo good! THANK YOU GOD! i just got my audition letter..and yea i guess everyone gets an audition date but i was getting really worried cuz mine was late and there are two audition dates and i got the one i wanted! yey! so happy!

anyways...i just spent forever writing a play with 2 friends and even though we had a blast the script wasn't as good as we wanted it... w/e i'm in too good of a mood to care right now.

i was drawing/sketching yesterday for fun and i never realised how much patience art takes before now. i'd never actually tried to draw something before...and now that i have i realised that it's not just sitting down and adding talent with pencil and paper. I am in even more awe of all those artistic people that i know because of their amazing ability to hold onto and imitate images that capture life/meaning/love/pain/and so much more, so that more can enjoy it. It also makes me wonder in awe of the One who created it all and what an amazingly creative being our God truly is. It took me about 3 hrs to complete 2 mediocre drawings....wait..they aren't complete...yes i think about how long it took Him to say "let there be...". it's truly amazing/astounding.

Life is too marvelous for much more words at the moment.

2006-01-13T14:57:00.000-08:00

wow. the last time i posted was christmas! ahh i'm lau-z at keeping this thing updated. haha oh wellz. soo sorries. anyways...Life has been a blast. i killed myself trying to snowboard over the break and then i got back and we now have this crazy self D teacher and he's literally insane. He's whipping us into shape and it's killing our out of shape bodies.

anyways... telly seems to be really into bethel now so thats good. she hasn't been coming lately but i think that's cuz i keep forgetting to remember to ask...hehe whoops! wow so much has happened yet i'm completely blank right now...

oh! attatching a sketchpad onto comp so i can draw perty pics for deviant account... yey! fun fun fun! auditions are coming up and i can't wait but i'm getting super nervous. pray for me! wish me luck! ta ta.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

2005-12-25T17:18:00.000-08:00

hello everyone! it's been so long since i posted! wow! December is definitly the busiest month of the year! first there were all those practices, and then there was that Children's Worship night...and more practices than ESC Christmas Dinner, which was an awesome night. I truly admire the people who put it together cuz they must of had absolutely no sleep at all. I learned so much that night...yet i didn't really learn anything.confusing but not really. i guess that night mean more to me becuase i felt that a lot of it really applied to me in my life...and it was just overwhelming to see that God did understand and that i wasn't the only one going through it all. Anyways, that came and went, and the art gallery was amazing. I had no idea our church had so many artistically talented people! So on Christmas eve there was this family/co-workers/friends dinner and then almost all the adults went to the CSC Christmas service at church. Then my sister, Alex, and i watched Beauty and the Beast and the Enchanted Christmas...SUCH a GOOD movie!!! I miss those Disney movies that were musicals! I mean the movies are still great but they're not musicals anymore..and i find they don't mean as much..but anyways...we spent a lot of time together and it was good bonding time... Today i'd planned on waking up everyone super early to do gifts together before church, but that didn't work out so well. Christmas service was good, but i was blown away during worship.Seeing how CSC worships together and fellowships together, and actually give their hearts to God during worship, really astounded me. It was amazing to see and it basically was the highlight of my day, seeing a giant group of people gathered and pouring out everything in worship to God.
Lunch was with the family and then we came home and did presents. After that we all just hung around at home, and that's about it! Tomorow is Boxing Day Sale!!! Yay!!! I'm determined to get together with a few people and catch up with them during this Christmas Break. anyways, Merry Christmas everyone...!

thanks...

2005-11-29T16:28:00.000-08:00

thanks...
for instruments...i'm not saying acapella is a bad thing...but i feel as if instruments were gifts to help us enrich our music...do you not feel that sometimes music with instruments adds that certain touch that something else couldn't?...so yea..thanks...

2005-11-29T16:18:00.000-08:00

first of all..thanks so much gummi! loved that site..haha very interesting..enjoying your book? yes? good!

so if anyone else wants to read this site mentioned above it's right here:
http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2005/012/9.28.html

it's fantastic, basically talking about the life if CS Lewis and his amazing works...can't wait till the movie comes out! YAY!

So it 3 days it's going to be December..and with December comes...Christmas! Yay!...i had a very big conversation about Christmas with someone recently... and how Christmas songs on the radio now a days contain no mention of Christ, God, or anything else like that... Christmas is no longer about the love that God gave us by sending us His son on that day, it's no longer a celebration for the day that our Saviour came to earth... now it's only an excuse to receive/give presents, to have time off of school, to go away to hot weathered places for vacation. It's really sad that this happened... but is there anything we can do about it? Anyways, at least our church still remembers the things that He has done.

Yesterday was quite good... i realised that people are famous for a reason.. Tony Campolo was a good speaker and it was encouraging to see so many people not from our church come... haha..actually there were more people there not form our church then from our church...it was crazy but fantastic at the same time..haha is that even possible? haha....

a question has entered my thoughts recently... if you are given the opportunity to serve God, and you're given the blessing and advantage of not having to worry about exams, or overload of homework... should you not take all the chances given to you to serve no matter if you have a ride or not?...hrmm...

thanks...

2005-11-26T10:56:00.000-08:00

thanks...
for cold medicine...what would i do without it?... i'd be dieing in bed if there wasn't cold medicine...so thanks..

2005-11-26T10:46:00.000-08:00

augh. i've been sick for the past 3 days and i'm not exactly getting better. So i had a good week? not really, but thursday was the school dance and the parent council forgot to bring food so that wasn't that good....the dj got better towards the end and the streamers lasted about 5 seconds before they were all ripped down by the guys... yesterday was twin day and that was really cute... then bethel was amazing. It was big big worship and that was really good. The worship team was really good and it was a great time of worship. Chantelle had a good time so hopefully she'll be back again next week? maybe? sometimes she seems really interested but sometimes it seems like she completely finds it boring...so i dunno...just gotta keep praying and hoping that some sort of curiosity will spark in her.

i talked to my sister recently about getting baptised...it was a really big thing for me a while ago but then i wasn't sure if i was ready... how do i know when God's really telling me to do something and if i'm not just imagining it? I mean if God's gives you a command you're gonna do it right? so the only problem is, how do i know when he's giving a command? So i'm definitly gonna look more into that...

i was called a princess recently..i'm not a princess...am i? aiyaa...

thanks...

2005-11-17T19:06:00.000-08:00

er...well today's isn't really a thanks...more of a...erm.... prayer...for a friend..for you! that's right you! hahaha..feel better friend...feel better...
"lean on me..when you are down...i'll be the one..i'll help you carry on..."

musical disaster...oh well!

2005-11-17T18:48:00.000-08:00

wow...what a tiring day... all morning we've been studying like mad for english exam...ewww...exams...ewwww...and i thought i wouldn't get any for a while...*sigh* no such luck with me...so it was super hard but whether it be because of my amazing studying skills or my short prayer before the exam, i managed to finish really early...so i checked everything over and fixed things up a bit..hopefully i did well...haha so short prayers i heard too huh? well that's interesting...

so there was an information night at our school for parents this evenng at 6 and my friend decided to stay there and so he called me and was literally begging me to come and keep him company..poor bored friend...so i went early and we set up everything...so during the performance..i messed up superly bad and said "oh whoops" really loud...so that made me laugh..haha..it was kinda loud..oh well! hah!..i think my music teacher hates me..hehehehe...

i have a super busy weekend and super exciting once comingup..more on that when it's over...

yey! spirit week! yey! unfortunately i have to participat...forced to...blah....i can't wait for the school dance..we're planning this amazing set up and decoration...it's going to be fantastic...we have this whole under the sea theme and it's the first time ever going to be in the gym and i'm so excited! yay! decorating is so fun! whooooohooo!!!...

so not much else to say...i guess that's it...

feel better...

2005-11-14T15:30:00.000-08:00

feel better michelle!

g.k.chesterton...the giver of headaches..

2005-11-06T19:58:00.000-08:00

111 pages...that's how many pages if you copy and paste "heretics" by G.K. Chesterton into a word document..and it's not eas english...it's confusing sentenses like " Nothing more strangely indicates an enormous and silent evil of modern societythan the extraordinary use which is made nowadays of the word "orthodox."In former days the heretic was proud of not being a heretic. It wasthe kingdoms of the world and the police and the judges who were heretics." aiyaaa..it's simple enough but you actually have to think if you read something like this! aughhhh.... gummi you're killing me! hahaha..but it's quite interesting..hahahaha..

thanks...

2005-11-06T19:47:00.000-08:00

thanks...
for the people in rhcbc that inspire me, the people that i look up to, the people that are themselves and don't worry about what other people think of them, the people that show me what it means to be a fully non-perfect Christian that goes through each day with the problems and trials we all have, but fully trust in Him and put all their faith in Him to get through the day...thanks...

aughhh...pain in the butt

2005-11-06T19:11:00.000-08:00

troubled times

2005-10-16T15:39:00.000-07:00

life is so hard...and yes so friggin easy! school is turning into a breeze, but then again...i'm still going through the simple stuff so it's all good...except english class..that's just...augh...anyways. so the last few days have been pretty uneventful...friday night was a blast. the grade 10 - 12 girls and guys did a cookoff and it was so hilarious. the judges facial expressions changed completely when they tasted the guys dishes..HAHAHA... that goes to prove that guys are NOT meant to cook. especially since some of the guys (cough cough JUSTIN cough) ate half of the shrimp instead of actually using it... hahahah... but it was tons of fun watching them. the grade 7-9 girls and guys had a scavenger hunt and that went.. er... well? i dunno..but it could have gone a lot worse. i'm just so thankful for mich and joey... and they're quick thinking that saved the night and made it a lot more fun. so basically we made them find puzzle pieces of bible verses and then they thought of this awesome idea to make the groups act it out..HAHAHAHA...it was hilarious but a few of them turned out really really well! it was so surprising! hah. so SALT did an un organized board games night and that looked pretty fun...i think the leader's are going to be doing that soon. i can't wait! i love board games! yay! so saturday telly came over and we watched shrek 2...again...hahah..and we did homework...fun? ewww... so anyways i'm outz for now... oh wait... today was av at church...it was hilarious working with bobs and will..hahah. those guys are so funny. yups! thats it!

Drama was well...drama....i guess?? we had a supply today...and unlike last yr...my class this yr is actually good and we don't scare away all the teachers..haha...so class was so fun..and we had to take this newpaper clipping and do improvisation/not really and like make a skit that contained it..and it was hilarious..we ended up doing a runway show, and i was in a group with one of my friend's named Erin and she's just hilarious. She's so good with improv and junk like that and it just ended up hilarious...but ours kinda sucked...HAH. oh well..we had fun..and everyone laughed..so it's all good...

It's refreshing and i can't wait for it to rain...

for the person who invented marble cake....yummm...

2005-10-09T14:58:00.000-07:00

don't you hate it when people assume you're one age...and then once they find out how old you are...they treat you completely different??...or don't you hate it when you're expected to me mature and so much older than you really are...but then a minute later they want you to be your age just so they can have the advantage?....well...if you do..then you shouldn't...cuz it's wrong to hate....instead you should be thankful that you can look older or younger than you reall are... instead you should be thankful that you had a chance to be mature at all... instead..you should be thankful....

anyways....happy thanksgiving to everyone! i can't wait for the turkey that's cooking right now...and i'm so thankful for it....there is so much i can be thankful for...right now...i'm most thankful for bandaids...while preparing dinner i sliced open my finger with a Cutco knife...so thank you Lord for letting someone invent bandaids...

today was amazing....I am in awe of Joyce's amazing talent and today was utterly amazing...the message was great...the worship team was fantastic...everything was so special today....i mean it was ordinairy...and then there are the times where things can just be so much more so long as you think of it differently...then after we got a lot done during the meeting...and i really think our team's gonna do a great job....

thanks to all for being there for me always...luv you all so much...and i'm so thankful...

2005-10-08T09:30:00.000-07:00

btw....my run on sentences don't bother me so they shouldn't bother you...and at least i have "..."'s in between so that i can actually breath, but if it really bothers you that much than I'll try to write like this. it's so bothersome! So many punctuations....

...hmmm...

hahaha...it's such a funny feeling, blogging in the morning before anything has happened...whoa... okso maybe it's to make up for yesterday's?? hmmm... well last night was utterly amazing... SALT's thanksgiving dinner was tons of fun, and i managed to go to bethel for a bit of it too...yay! hehe... joey and i were serving for salt so we actually got the food for free...excellent! unfourtunately we didn't get to hear some people do their sharing but when we came back up one of the times, we heard eliot in the middle of his song...and we just stopped and stared. it's amazing how some people are so blessed by God and have so much musical talent... and yet they only want to use it to please God... so we had a bundle of fun times... also, i brought a family friend to Bethel...it wasn't her first time so it was all good... but i think she really fit in well. I mean I know i wasn't there with her the hwole time...but she made some really good friends...and i think she really enjoyed it. She also got to try some of the awesome sago soup from SALT's dessert table...heheheheh... i think she'll come back next time... which is goood??? anyways...we went home and then we watched serendipity on my cousin's computer and it was such a sappy movie...but it was soo cute! it was about 2 people and they really believed in like fate and all that and there were so many conincidences that happened and that reminded me of this one time when i was reading this book...and it was talking about how everything happens for a reason...which means that coincidences...aren't really coincidences...because they really were meant to happen...but it doesn't seem like it's meant to happen...so it just seems like a coincidence and.. that just really confused me... ...hmm...

in pain...but happy!

i have had the most uncomfortable day ever....so far....so it starts with me having a pulled right shoulder muscle and back muscle...the whole right handed side of my back...the muscle there? it's pulled and it's killing me..it's also cauing me to fail gym at the moment since my teachers gay and says he doesn't believe me until he sees a note by my doctor...grrr!...anyways...so then i get to school...and i go to a meeting...and i shut the door on my leg...yes i'm a clutz..leave me alone.. next thing...music...i had to keep my wrist in the most uncomfortable position for 50 mins while playing and bearing the weight of a bass (yes the big giant hulking thing) so by the end of class...i had a cramped wrist... lunch...i hung out with my guy friends...they had a football and were throwing it to one another and i was talking to one of them...it was whipped into my face..how fun is that?? so i have headaches for the rest of afternoon..then walking to gym my friend is flinging her lock around..and she drops it onto my ankle..wonderful...during gym... we do football...and i over use my right arm.... so now i'm in pain.. but yet...after all this uncomfort...i find today a good day... i got to spend a lot of time with some of my friends that i rarely get to see..and i had a lot of good laughs today... i also learned a really valuable lesson.... you see a family friend is coming to live with us for thanksgiving weekend because she goes to boarding school near us...and she needs aplace to stay...and i kinda got into an arguement with my mom... but she showed me something... generosity and caring goes a long way for people that are away from family, and it can mean a lot to them...so i'm really thankful for that...

also had a history test today..i think i failed..2moro i have a science test... i think i'm gonna fail that too... oh joy...

SN: it's not the quantity that counts... it's the quality.....HAH! (u.kno.hoo.u.r.)

so i was bored...so i decided to go read a few blogs of my friend's that i hadn't read b4...so i came across one that was from sometime in the summer time and it was about an event that i had participated in, so i started reading it...and omg...it was like a 500 word essay....ahh...so it was really good..hilarious...i got to hear about something i was in from a different point of view..it was also really eye opening...to see how much God had worked in this person's life....then i came to a part that really tore my heart open...it was honest, but it was about negative stuff...and i finally got to see how other people saw it and it hurt me to realize that i had been one of those people being talked about...and i just wished i had realised this before it had happened so i would have been able to change...saying this now does nothing...it doesn't change anything..it doesn't make all the complaints voiced dissapear...it doesn't suddenly make it all better and it doesn't all go right all of a sudden...i'm just sorry...and i hope that next yr, if i sign up again..i won't be a complete idiot and do the same stupid mistake...i never realised how much more work other people had than i did...and yet i complained so much...thanks so much for that eye opener..i needed it...

AUGH

how do you have the patience with someone who is driving you knuts and won't go away!?!?!?...i mean...it's really hard being nice to them when all they do is annoy you and act insanely immature...i really thing God is testing my patience before i completely lash out at them and hurt them. being a Christian is so hard sometimes...it's driving me knuts...all these things have been happening..leaving me hurt, confused, stubborn, and reluctant to change anything...i have no idea what to do and i feel like life's going berserk on me...well at least part of my life...it seems that this is only happening at skewl..why is that?? it's like skewl is trying to bring me down...the other parts of my life are utterly amazing...i've found some amazing friends i can talk to and that can offer great advice, and even though i'm faced with a lot of hard decisions, i feel like God is throwing His answers into my face...i just hope i'm interperting them right..hahaha....so today was tons of fun...it was roshashanah...or something like that...and we had like 11 ppl in our class...we had such a blast...our teachers were so layed back today..it was so wicked...and then after skewl i had a really intense and fun conversation with a really good friend...haha...intense and fun...odd...anyways...i owe someone an essay..just hope this is long enough!
