discovering james..

i have been trying to read james every night and sometimes also during the day. i am not sure what i have been looking for but things are starting to stick out. i have been having trouble tyring to figure out how this applies to my own life but what i have come to think so far is..

james 1:22-25 is that has been sticking out to me most..

22Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. 23Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror 24and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. 25But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does.

i have been doing exactly what it says not to. i have been listening for almost two years but doing nothing else just listening. i don't even think i have taken the time to really hear anything.. just been going along in my own little world. that is something that i need to change. people have tried to help me out to show me better options for my life to push me in the right direction. church is something i have been trying to avoid in any form and i can easily see that it could be because i do just want to listen and not act on anything if it's not something i want which lately i think that has been the case.

well yeah.. that is what i have gotten so far. i may be getting the totally wrong thing out of this and if that's the case i sure hope someone will re-direct me.

mr.thomas

soo i got to visit with my 2nd grade best friend! it's weird that even if we don't really get to talk for over a year we still pick up right where we left off i love it. we have known each other for 12 whole years! it's crazy i remember when we would play tag on the pirate plank at john campbell with mary, brain, and the argon twins.

any who we met at lince and talked for about 45 minutes then decided to walk up to his house and watch a movie. i have been to his house but like never stayed for any amount of time just before a dance or meeting up to walk to school.. and well he has like a home theatre. it's great there is a nice projection screen with red curtains on both sides like a real theatre and then three nice leather recliners with cup holders. i was very impressed. we went through all his like hundreds of movies and decided to watch saved because he said it was like juno and well i pretty much love that movie. i have to say some parts were awkward to watch with him just cause but it was super funny i loved it.

but yesss it was a great visit with my best guy friend. i missed him a ton.

beauty of a storm

lately i have really just wanted to escape.

you know how sometimes you feel like you just want to get away from everything.

i love my life i do but sometimes it's just overwhelming. nothing major it just gets to be a little too much. things have been going alright but i feel like i can't breathe like some how i am trapped like something is just holding me back tying me down... but yet can't seem to put my finger on it. i want a full blown storm to erupt.

to be outside in the middle of the storm right now seems so perfect.

storms to me seem like a way of just letting loose not holding anything back and just letting go.

i mean rain pours, lighting strikes, thunder rolls like the skies are breaking down but yet it's beautiful in some amazing way.

good times, great oldies.

okay so really there are no great oldies but it makes for good title..i think??

right now i'm visiting the breece's!
yesterday we were trying to think of different things to do and we decided the mall close to seattle was the best plan so we headed for the mall.
we looked at a few different stores but i have to say the funnest thing there was the photo booth outside rain forest cafe'. i
after the mall we decided to head to seattle to find the troll form 10 things i hate about you.
becki is amazing and drove right to it not even knowing.
haaha i love that troll he is pretty amazing the only thing that isn't is the gay drama club that was going over their scrips right in front of it which made is very difficult to take a good picture but their very phony accents were pretty funny i must say.
when we got back to enumclaw we played so badminton which i have to say i am not so great at but i love it!!

ohhh yeah and i got a facebook message telling me to call someone and yeah i have to say i'm sure excited about what the person has planned it's going to be a great time!!

:D:D:D

today should be radical too bah haha.

taya's bright idea..

sooo.. when i picked taya up from school and took her to minga's she decided she needed to pick her nose. i told her to go to the bathroom and wash her hands.. but while she was in the bathroom she found a sweeeet curler brush and decided to be sneaky and give it a try. after about five minutes i asked tay what she was doing in there... she came out totally bright red saying "i i i might need help" yeah i would think so. you can't even see how snarled her hair was around the brush. it took me around 20 minutes of struggling to get out before i thought of getting a comb and slowing pulling the hairs out but she is all good now.

it actually makes me laugh pretty hard looking back at the picture she is a dork.

well helloooo.

soo countdowns continue.. umm kinda..

ezzie turns 7 tomorrow!!

and the terminator also opens tomorrow people DON'T go see it in the morning puuulease.

only 6 days until my schedule comes out and i see what i got off :)

i didn't get scheduled for the 28th sooo that means i might get the 28th-the what ever it was i asked for off!

only around 9-ish days until i possibly goooo to the breece's!

i got invited to jess' graduation on the 6th! she said annie and her dad will both be there and invited me to go to lunch with them after i'm excited!! in the hopes i don't work.. hmm.

boise ashley comes to washington like right around then too which i'm soo excited for.

jen-nay is coming to spokane from SC june 14th and uncle larry is getting married then too!

um i think that's all for my countdowns at the moment.

soo some how i got sick like a cold thing i really dislike it. haha.

i'm reading a book called "19 minutes" and some how i am getting reality mixed in with fiction and its confusing me way too much. the book is basically about a school shooting i think the author is kinda trying to give you a hint of what it was like for the students of columbine high school. all her books i have noticed however seem to deal with the court skip and i decided. she is the same author that wrote " my sisters keeper" i have a feeling that this book is going to be just as good as the that one. but anyways when i like listen to the news i keep expecting to here something about a school shooting which of course is not actually going on.

well. i don't really have much to say. i wish i had things to take picture of but um i really just don't and i even carry my camera with me every where oh well.
