11:19 pm	alright, well this will pretty much be a pretty pointless update. i'm just updating to say that i won't be updating much anymore b/c 1. i have no time and 2. alot of the time i don't have anything worth posting. i'll post if i have a question and if something very interesting happens. feel free to continue to comment on here with any questions you might have for me b/c i'll continue to check up on what other people are saying. like i said, this is a pointless post but i just wanted you all to know why there will rarely be a new post in here. i <3 you all!

5:15 pm	i'm baaaaack!! hey guys(and girls!!)i've had a really busy two weeks so i just thought i'd let you all know about them!! i got back from my grandmother's on saturday night and left again at 6:30am on sunday morning. we went on a road trip this past week. it was our summer mission trip and we usually go to mexico for it but it is so expensive that we decided to do something different this year. we had no clue where we were going....AT ALL!! it was all a surprise. on sunday, we went to lyndale, texas and helped lead worship with them. that afternoon, we did our first service project which consisted of several things...such as picking up trash, handing out flyers, etc. i didn't do this because my dad and i went to go surprise my papaw and grandma with a visit. it was so great to see them. then on monday, we went to vicksburg, mississippi and painted a community center for them. on tuesday, we went to mobile, alabama and did several projects there as well...we cleaned out rooms, mowed lawns, washed cars, etc. on wednesday, we had a free day. we went to panama city beach in florida and rode on the captain anderson's party boat. we got to ride the boat for an hour, swim on a private island for an hour, and then coming back, we had a dolphin tour. it was so fun!!! i loved every bit of it!! then on thursday, we went to columbus, georgia and went to an army base called fort bening. its supposedly one of the biggest bases in the country. that day, we went around the base and looked at all the stuff that the soliders do to train for wars and whatnot. that day was pretty much just teaching us to respect our country a whole lot more, it was really cool. one of the things we watched was some soldiers diving out of an airplane and they go really close together b/c they have a drop zone that they have to make it in. some of the soldiers got tangled together in about 2 jumps after we left and they didn't get untangled in time to hit the ground. last we heard they weren't moving and so if you wouldn't mind praying for them, i would really appriciate it. on friday, we went to memphis, tennessee and we helped with the police station to help crime-proof some houses for two elderly ladies. it poured on us and we all had so much fun in it. however, because of the large amount of rain, we weren't able to finish up some of the other houses and we were very upset about that. a local tv station in memphis wanted to hear our story so they came and interviewed us and that was going to be on tv that night. it was so cool. then today we came home!! all in all it was an amazing trip and i wouldn't change a single thing about it. i hope you're doing good and i will hopefully talk to you soon!!

5:25 pm	i'm scared! alright so i'm oficially scared out of my mind. tomorrow is my MRI and i'm really really nervous. everyone that's gotten one b4 says they're not that bad but i hate sitting or better yet, lying still. they have to do one on my thigh and hip so it might take even longer since there's two of them. i'd just like to ask if you all would just say a short prayer that nothing else is wrong with my leg b/c if there is, i'll have to be on crutches and further testing will have to be done... :( well i'm gonna go, but if yall wouldn't mind doing that, i'd really appriciate it. thanks!!

7:34 pm	:( wow. lately i have felt nothing but tiredness, stress and anger and i'm tired of it. i just feel like i am always doing something and am never stopping to breathe. and b/c of this, i feel like i am taking my anger and frustration out on the people who mean most to me. if you read this, i am really sry for my attitude lately b/c i don't want anyone's opinions of me to change at all. theres just so much going on in my life right now, the stress of officer tryouts which i am alomst fed up with and also my papaw. hes not doing well at all and he will never be well again. hes my dad's dad by the way. i went to see him last friday and he'd had a really rough night. if you held your breath for about 10 seconds then let it out, but not in a full breath, just a quick puff, thats how he's breathing. it was so hard to walk into that hospital room and see him looking like that, i almost couldn't take it. i just want some relief in my life, something to take all the stress away. another thing, my papaw isn't even a christian and it scares me so bad thinking that i might not see him in Heaven. that scares me so much. this isn't a sympathy entry, more like an apology if i've come across rude or whatnot to you lately. its just that lately i don't know what to do but i feel like everything i do in life is a constant struggle pulling me down. well sry to bore you, its just been on my mind. i <3 you all Current Mood: drained (1 Comment |Comment on this)

6:27 pm	Question maybe one of you who read this can answer a question for me. how do you keep trying your hardest to accomplish a goal when no one around you who you thought cared and had confidence in you, don't anymore?
