& i'll keep on singing because You hear me;

so i just got a phone call from the district...
we dont have school tomorrow.
thats cool because i will definitely enjoy the time off. however, ive been told that the next weather makeup day is on a saturday. im not coming to school on a saturday. ha. maybe i was told a lie.

so we had region band this weekend. it wasnt as fun as the usc clinic. and plus we kind of sucked. i was supposed to feel talented being in region band wasnt i? ...didnt quite feel it. i was almost embarrassed. but we really didnt do TOO bad on the actual concert. which is surprising. i never heard the girl next to me play. ha. im sure she did though.

we saw push friday night. that was probably the best part of the whole weekend. it was a reallyyyy good movie! i wasnt expecting it to be good at all. so i was very surprised. i enjoyed it. you should go see it. :)

i went to church for the first time in forever this morning. it was very nice. i hadnt really realized how much i missed being in Gods presence. i dont see how i can stay away from that for so long. im gonna try really hard to get back to where i was not so long ago. my life has gotten so busy lately that i ended up putting my relationship on the backburner. and as convenient as it was, it was only hurting me. so i decided to put it first. i know Gods gonna take care of me. Hes gonna take care of everything; my grades, money that i need, my job, band stuff. Hes not gonna let me down and i dont understand why i forget that. to think that i can handle it all by myself is absolutely insane. but then again we arent as smart as we should be.

so im gonna go ahead and admit that im addicted to diet dr pepper. i dont know if i could go a whole day without it. or at least some kind of diet drink. its crazy, i know. but thats how it is right now. maybe one day i will try to quit drinking it so much. but for now, im okay with it. ha.

im giving up chocolate for lent. at least, im trying to. i accidentally had chocolate milk for breakfast. its hard for me to remember. but ill get the hang of it soon enough. its the effort that counts anyway, right? yea... sure. ha.

im extremely thankful for everyone that Gods put in my life. i really do have an amazing group of friends and family that do an incredible job of supporting me. i just wish that i could be that for them. sometimes i dont do an amazing job. ha, but im trying. because the one thing i want out of life is to see other people happy. and if i can do that for them, then i will be perfectly happy myself. at least, thats how i feel. im not making any promises. ha. i dont make promises too often anymore. ive broken too many in the past. and i see what that does to people. and as a result, to me. so im very careful about that. besides, no one really knows what will happen.

if anyone reads these things & has a few blank cds lying around... i would LOVE some new music. i get tired of listening to the same stuff after a while. i got a little bit this weekend but i could always use more. :)

i think im gonna go do something a little bit productive...
have a great sunday!

oh!
