I know that the Pocahontas play is over, but a friend of mine at Greenleaf (Brian aka Opochankano) made this trailer. I thought that it was cool so, here it is!
I will be postng some pictures soon...

Extreme LED Sheep

This is pretty cool. Everything that you see in here is real, just sped up a little.

Finally....

Sooooo.... Today..... I..... did something.... something that made me very happy... I guess that you might want to know what it was.... I got my DRIVERS PERMIT! Yay! I know that some of you already have yours, but having this done is a huge relief. I did the test, only got one wrong (And it was worded weird.)My dad and I drove home and when we got in our neighborhood, Dad got out and let me drive. I drove around the block about five times and I didn't do to bad either. :)

Template Fun

Yep, it is about that time again. I was starting to get sick of my old template, so I found a new one. I think that I like this one. Especially the musical notes and the plants at the bottom. We'll see what happens....


Here is a random picture that I drew a little while back...

Fish Dissections and Settler Women

So... At Co-op yesterday, we dissected a fish!!! I am usually more enthusiastic about the dissection process than any of my friends (not that there is that many of us anyways.) According to Mr. D, our teacher, the girls where actually happy that I was able to come so that I could take the really big fish. It did not smell as bad as the crayfish, but it was definitely more juicy. There was a literal puddle of whatever liquid was in it on our little tray... YUCK! I'm telling you there were scales everywhere! One even landed on my face... That was a little too much...


Lauren and I had one fish, aka Mushy...

Elisabeth and Alexandra had another, aka Tapioca...

Mushy was quite a bit bigger...
I turned Mushy so that he was looking at Elisabeth...

Oh yes, Mushy's juicy innards.









Okay, let's end this post with a not so gross end.

As many of you know, I am in a play! It is the real story of Pocahontas... emphasis on the REAL. This is a story of redemption and reconciliation. Anyways, I am a settler. So this picture here is of me and my fellow settler women. There are a few missing, but this is most of them.
Left to Right...
Jessica, Laura, Janice, Marissa M., Marisa H., Me, and Cassie. We all have so much fun being in our costumes...


I know that had nothing to do with fish, but oh well...

Bring the Rain

Okay I am totally going to copy Elisabeth, but oh well. Here are the lyrics to one of my most favorite songs. I think that this really ties in with my life and my struggles. I pray that God will use all of my struggles and pain to bring Him glory.
I have the song on my music player, which has already probably started playing it...
So, here is Bring The Rain by MercyMe...

Bring the Rain-

Holy, Holy, Holy
Holy, Holy, Holy

I can count a million times
People asking me how I
Can praise You with all that
I've gone through
The question just amazes me
Can circumstances possibly
Change who I forever am in You

Maybe since my life was changed
Long before these rainy days
It's never really ever crossed my mind
To turn my back on you, oh Lord
My only shelter from the storm
But instead I draw closer through these times
So I pray...

Bring me joy, bring me peace
Bring the chance to be free
Bring me anything that brings
You glory And I know there'll
be days when this life brings me pain
But if that's what it takes to
praise You, Jesus, bring the rain

I am yours regardless of the clouds that may
loom above because you are much greater than my pain
you who made a way for me suffering
your destiny so tell me
what’s a little rain
So I pray...

Bring me joy, bring me peace
Bring the chance to be free
Bring me anything that brings
You glory And I know there'll
be days when this life brings me pain
But if that's what it takes to
praise You, Jesus, bring the rain


Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
is the lord God almighty
is the lord God almighty



Isn't that beautiful? I want this to be my life song:
"I know there'll be days when this life brings me pain
But if that's what it takes to praise You, Jesus, bring the rain."
