Dream of You

The day of the year, in this case I love, is coming this next Wednesday. It's Grandparents Day. The day in which your grandparents (or parents, aunts and uncles, friends, cousins, etc.) come to my school, hear us sing silly songs, and visit your classroom. Every year, I invite my grandparents.

Well this year, I made the BIGGEST mistake of my life.

I invited Kelly to come and watch Sarah (aka Sofia) and I at the program. How is that a mistake inviting my best friend in the whole world to the day I love? Well, that's an easy question. We're doing Singin' in the Rain this year; and we're dancing a little to one of the songs ("Dream of You"). I told Sarah at lunch who I mistakenly invited, and she and I semi-freaked out. I mean, this is almost all dancing. I have every right to freak out. And I have a SOLO for a song called "Good Morning". Actually, I'm the understudy but still, I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO FREAK OUT!

I pray nobody brings a video camera....

....And congrats you guys! You're still alive to read this post on judgment day! YAY!! And if Jesus does come back today, I would be happy with it! :D

For the Lord will return like a thief in the night. (I Thess. 5:2)

Prone to Being Sick

Well, here I am again. Finding nothing to do on a TUESDAY morning while my classmates are studying. Why am I at home?

I am sick. :(

Thing is, I only have a runny nose, sore throat, some headaches, and a stomach ache. I grateful that I'm not (eww....) vomiting. :,( I'm trying not to think about it, because I was sick a few months back. On a Tuesday. For two days! It all started like this....

I had a really bad stomach ache while at school. I dealt with it until after I got home from basketball practice. I laid down for a while with a bowl. And I puked in it. And then I threw up again at like eleven p.m. and fell asleep again. (Yes, my parents knew I was sick.) I woke up the next morning, started getting dressed for chapel, and showed my mom. She said I was not going to school since I had thrown up at 11 p.m. I got undressed and in my pajamas. I stayed at home until 3:00 with my dad. We had a basketball game today and I wasn't going to be there. I went to youth group that night though.

But basically, I'm prone to being sick. Forever and always.

All Over The Place

I may make this the most boring post yet. But Sofia and I go to a Christian School. (Like it's all semi-perfect and you have to have all your homework in and all that fun stuff)

And if you recall I do sports. And my P.E. teacher/basketball coach said one thing at practice or a game (I can't remember...)

"You girls need to know that you aren't gonna master or be perfect at basketball."

O.o

Well, I know we aren't perfect is the first thing. We have a sister pair (one's an eighth grader and one's in my class) and they think THEY ARE ALL PERFECT! :(  Each time after we do a few laps around the gym, they say, 'most of them cut the lines while running! CHEATERS!'.

I may do that sometimes by mistake, but them just thinking they're the perfect person in the world makes me sick. The older one today at track sat out because she 'hurt' herself. If you meet me in real life, you may never hear me say that about anybody! And then the older goes around and says these hurtful things about my friend, Sarah.

Now Sarah is in her class and really nice. I love Sarah because she encourages ALL people. Not just her friends. She knew me and my friend Damita in kindergarten and Damita always asked her to tie her shoes. And Sarah would do it and treat Damita higher than herself. Like in Romans 12:10 in the Bible.

 But anyways, I know I am not perfect. Our teachers, faculty, and friends expect too much because they think we're perfect. Well if you go to a Christian school, doesn't mean you're a Christian.

My teacher said that and he had a long talk with us about it. Going to a church doesn't make you a Christian. Yes. I do fail at basically every thing I do. Ask Sarah, Sofia, Kelly, or Abie (Read Glee, Soccer, and Friends). This makes ME human, because last time I checked, Adam and Eve did sin. And since WE are ALL on of their descendants, therefore we sin. It makes us human.

So if you're reading this, I encourage you to take 3 things from this:

1. WE AREN'T PERFECT! I don't care what your parents say about you being the perfect child, you aren't perfect in God's eyes.
2. FAILING MAKES US HUMAN! I missed over 50 shots, bumps, runs, and heats. But it makes me a human.
3. And three, GOD IS THE PERFECT ONE! God is perfect and we aren't for a reason. If we were perfect, well, this world would have chaos...

I'm gonna use my real name,
