It’s been awhile… again

Hey all!  I’m sorry I haven’t written anything in such a long time.  My family has been busy for the last while.  First with ballet recitals and then the Chec Conference.  We are just now starting to recover.   Several thing have also happened.  Three weeks ago, my sister broke her arm, the first [...]

CSQ ‘09

It’s been a little while since I’ve posted.  I’ve mainly been recovering from the Centennial State Qualifier a couple weeks ago.  (I’m still in shock that I’ve finished my Apologetics cards.  After writing 90 six minute speeches, you don’t really feel like you’ve reached the end.)  As you could see from my last post, I [...]

A Tragically Wasted Life

The Rebelution is currently doing a series called, “Not to Young to Die.”  In one of the installments they gave this list.
3 Marks of a Tragically Wasted Life
A lukewarm attitude of complacency.
A lazy habit of procrastination.
A paralyzed lifestyle of timidity.
3 Marks of a Gloriously Spent Life
A hot-hearted desire to be useful.
A relentless passion for the [...]

I’m back!!!

Hey all!  You have all probably given up on me in desperation.  I can’t believe that it took me so long to finally get caught up.  But I did today, and it is so exciting to be back at last!  Of course, I will have to continue to stay caught up, but that should be [...]

Back… for good (maybe)

The last thing on our to-do list for the summer has been completed.  Namely, going to the State Fair.  I had qualified to compete in the Talent Show with my speech that I did in Speech and Debate.
We got to take a couple of our friends down with us.  Their parents weren’t keen on going [...]

Return from Glorieta

My family and I got back late Friday night from the Family Camp in Glorieta, New Mexico.  It was a blast!  The schedule was very laid back, and we got to sleep in each morning! (Till 7 or 7:30!)  Personally, I liked how I had to walk everywhere.  At home it’s hard for me to [...]

I’m back! For a little while at least! ; )

I got back from the Father/Son retreat late Tuesday afternoon.  It was a lot of fun, though extremely tiring.  When I got back, I was so tired, I could’ve cried.  I only got about 5 hours of sleep each night.  This was through no fault of my own.  I would jolt awake an hour or [...]

See ya!

I figured I should try and get on here and write something a little less depressing than my prior post. ; )  (For an update on my family, the rest of my family seems to be doing well.  Or at least they’re hiding it well.  I’m still hurt, and I feel betrayed.)
Anyways, I don’t think [...]

The End

It’s over.  My Dad gave us the news this morning during family worship.  The girl we were planning to adopt has decided she doesn’t want to be adopted.  My siblings and myself were very shocked and deeply hurt.  I’d like to ask for your prayer for my family, that this hurt will heal.  Also for [...]

Long time no see!

Wow, it’s been a little while since I’ve done anything on here.  Sorry about that.
It has now been a week and two days since the fair ended.  Hallelujah!! ; )  Just kidding.  It was difficult, but it was quite fun as well.  Out of eight days that I could be there, I was there seven. [...]
