you are.



So recently I recieved a belated birthday card from my 21st birthday which was well over two months ago.... but i'm kinda glad it came late... because if I would have gotten it at the same time as my other presents and cards I probably wouldn't have paid attention to it like I did.... the card as pictured above states 21 qualities that the person who gave me the card thinks I posess.... or they just thought it was a cute card...... but i'm gonna go with the first option, but I'm not going to agree completely... there are lots of qualities that think I need to work on. the 21 qualities are as follows....
1. Fun
2. Smart
3. Talented
4. Confident
5. Passionate
6. Capable
7. Generous
8. Admirable
9. Likable
10. Nice
11. Personable
12. Genuine
13. Successful
14. Kind
15. Inspiring
16. Considerate
17. Understanding
18. Enthusiastic
19. Friendly
20. Dependable
21. Wonderful

hopefully this blog will tell stories of me being some of these things... i strive to be more PERSONABLE with people and care about their lives in a GENUINE way..... I want to be more DEPENDABLE seeing as I graduate in may and enter the real world.... i wanted to use my TALENTS in way that glorify god and not me somehow incoprorating my photography, still havent figured that out yet.... I want to be WONDERFUL in the sense that I am full of the wonder of the awesome God I serve.... I also want to have a never ending PASSION to live for christ, not just when it's convienient for me, which happens a lot..... I want the words that come out of my mouth to be KIND and NICE about others and not bring them down, even if i'm not saying it directly to them, actually especially if i'm not saying it directly to them... I want to be SMART about descions I make and learn from DUMB mistakes, that one probably only makes sense to me but that's ok.... I know that I will never be all 21 of these things but listing them out at least reminds me of goals and what I strive for.... but I know that if I live my life like my lord and savior that doing that will encompass all these things and more... because this measly list of 21 things i want to be is nothing compared to what my father has to offer :0) ......

mytunes.... Sara Bareilles, Bloc Party, Celine Dion and Little Big Town.

I went to high school with you and saw you out one day and you flat out almost ignored me to my face. Looking at your post, we seem to have alot in common. God, great friends, and family. We had classes together, and we were definately cordial to eachother. I came up to you and said hey and tried to find out how you were doing and you looked as if you were wishing I would go away. I am not mad, I just dont understand that in general. I know some people are hard to get to know, or whatever, but I thought that was strang.
