seriously, i could shoot myself.
i packed up a majority of my clothes, and all my shoes up in a box, and SHIPPED them. which won't get to TN untill later this week.
so now i dont have shoes to wear when i get home. which now gives me an excuse to go shopping here in NY before i come home. tomorrow, i'm going to try to find an outfit for new years, including shoes!

Wow, so the last month and 9 days have kind of just blown by... it doens't seem like it's been that long. And I'm not really sure if I think it's been longer or shorter than a month...it's just kinda weird. But needless to say, I love NYC. It's absolutely amazing here. I've already done SO much, but yet so much still to do. For a while now, I've wanted to do dental hygiene, and it's still in the back of my head but here lately I've just been really interested in photography and photo editing. It's just something I really enjoy, and it's something I think I could be good at. But the demand for photograpers here in NY just isn't something they everyone is looking for. ALSO cosmetics has also been on my mind. AGH heck mass communications has been too; I went to the TODAY show on Halloween and I got to see a set in action and it was absolutely uneblievable. I would LOVE to do something like that. There is just SO much to choose from and I just don't know how to choose.
The babies are here, and they are doing GREAT! Elliott is off of everything and they are making sure he is going to stay good and srong before they let him home. Lillie is off all oxygen and is feeding with Susan some, also being fed through a tube as well. Can't wait for them to come home. YAY
I ordered the familys flight for CHRISTMAS today and my aunt booked a hotel for them to stay. It's going to be so much fun to show them around where I live, show them around MY city. It's going to be a great Christmas.
I love this place, I really really do!

i'm pretty much just completely into a great book right now, and NO it's not twilight. ha
blue like jazz, by donald miller. here are two paragraphs in the book that i love.
"i am learning to believe better things. i am learning to believe that other people exist, that fashion is not truth; rather, Jesus is the most important figure in history, and the gospel is the most powerful force in the universe. i am learning not to be passionate about the empty things, but to cultivate passion for justice, grace, truth, and communication the idea that Jesus likes people and even loves them."
"i will love you like God, because of God, mighted by the power of God. I will stop expecting your love, demanding your love, trading for your love, gaming for your love. i will simply love. i am giving myself to you, and tomorrow i will do it again. i suppose the clock itself will wear thin its time before i am ended at this altar of dying and dying again.
God risked Himself on me. i will risk myself on you. and together, we will learn to love, and perhaps then, the only then, understand this gravity that drew Him, unto us."

it pisses me off that people think i'm racist because i'm against obama. it's not about race, but alot of america only voted for him because he was black. they didn't know what he was about. and because of their stupidity we're stuck with socialism, abortion, gay marriage, higher taxes, no gun rights and all that jazz. oh freakin' boy!

| New York |
[16 Oct 2008|07:27pm] |
So I really haven't updated on LIVEJOURNAL anything about NYC, so I thought that I'd update a little. New York is great, I love the city. I've been to Union Circle, Times Square, I live two long blocks from Broadway, and Central Park is a block away! Altough I haven't gotten out every night, there is always something new to see or explore here in NYC.
The apartment is nice and cozy! It's small, a good 750 ft but Susan has done a great job of fixing it up, making it feel alot like a home. Me and Jack share a room, and it's difficult because he cries out alot at night, but I guess that's something I'm going to have to get used to. And once the twins come, I'm thinking I'll be up during the night. Even though they told me I wouldn't have to be up with the twins, I think it'll take more than just two of them to take care of the twins at night.
Me and Jack have become very familiar with the parks from 90th to 96th along Central Park. He loves the parks, and looks forward to going to one of them at least once a day! He loves slides, swings, and tire swings.
For the first week or so, I was taking daily trips to Starbucks at night to get online and just have ME time. We now have internet here so I don't have to walk. I'll still have trips to Starbucks to get out sometime...it's just not a every night must now.
I can't get over how everything I ever needed is all in walking distance of where I live, like seriously. However, the prices here are like DOUBLE of what they are in Clarksville. We order our groceries and they deliver them to our door next day. We might start having our laundry washed, dried, folded, and brought back to us. New Yorkers seem to be lazy, ha YEAH right, only when it comes to cooking, cleaning, and grocery shopping. Other than that, New Yorkers are fit and in tip-top shape.
The first week I missed my mom SO bad! I wanted to pack up and move back, but I knew there were way to many people back home depending on me. Way to many people back home that think I won't make it 6 months. Way to many people praying for me, that I'll let God shine through me in everything I do here. I can do it! Through Christ all things are possible!
I'm going to JERSEY BEACH this weekend with a bunch a girls for a Beth Moore retreat in a box. It's going to be alot of fun, and it'll be good to get away for a weekend and not have to be constantly looking out for Jack. I'm pretty sure terrible two's are hitting him. He hits, bites, pinches, and when you tell him NO! he looks at you and inches closer to whatever you told him no about and proceeds to touch whatever it was! It's so hard for me to comprehend that he doesn't understand us when we talk to him. The word NO to him is like GOO GOO GAH GAH to us.
But Susan and Freddy T have gone to take a walk, and I'm just here and Jack's asleep. I'm gunna clean up before they get back. I'll try to update more.
I love you all, and miss you TONS!

okay, so the beach has been absolutely amazing the time that we've been here. we haven't seena drop of rain yet! i've actually got some tan lines, and i'm not even itching. i've enjoyed so much being with my family one last week before i move to new york. we leave tomorrow in the morning, and i plan to see as many people as i can before i leave friday morning.
which brings me to that subject; leaving! it still hasn't hit me, and actually i hope it doens't hit me untill i'm actually there. because i'll be able to get through the plane ride and be someone emoitonaly sane. ha but i doubt that'll happen. i know it's gunna be rough as can be. but i'm going to try to be as big as a big girl that i can possibly be.
i'm meeting my girls at starbucks tomorrow night when i get home. it's gunna be hard. i don't know if i've said it or not, because my biggest fear is going from a city as little as clarksville where i know everyone, to a city as HUGE as NYC where i know no one! it's going to be a HUGE change. i know i'll make friends, and i'm hoping maybe i'll even find a boy. ;) we'll see though, it's all in his hands.
i love all my friends. and i'm going to miss them terribly. i have a WEBCAM so if you do too, let me know and we'll hook those suckas up and chat sometime....
i love you!

i'm really ready to get out of clarksville.
in september i'm going to chattanooga with dads side of the family for a weekend. than the next weekend i'm going to the beach with my family for 5 days. i'll get home from the beach and head to NYC.
freddy t noticed me, korey and lee-ann boyd this morning in church, so far we're the only ones who have commited to going. i'm sure there are others praying.
idk, i'm just so ready but yet so scared and nervous at the same time. 6 months is a long time to be 900 miles away from your family. i hope when i get down there i'll be able to find a job. i'm really wanting extra money to have.
i hope i get to meet some people too. college kids, yes that sounds good.

it was so weird not having to wake up this morning and go to the dreaded clarksville high school. it was amazing knowing that i'm done. and i guess this is when it all actually sets in. within the next month everyone that's going off to college will be moving. i hate to see everyone go. but in two months, i myself will be moving on to bigger and better things. in october i'm moving myself all the way to Manhattan, NY. i'm scared outa my mind, ha don't get me wrong. but i know i'm going to be okay. i'm moving with my cousin, his wife, and their little boy Jack. it's going to be 6 months of a grueling pace, non stop, new york streets, starbucks making, christian loving, kinda life. am i ready for that? you betcha.
although leaving behind my family that i've never been away from for no longer than 12 days at a time, 6 months is going to seem like a never ending journey. but i'm ready.
pray for me.

i don't know why i let things happen that i know shouldn't.
no explanation. sorry if i keep you're mind wondering.
i'm seriously in the BLAH mood.
i'm ready to find a new church home. i want more than anything to be able to get into a REAL college but since i messed around in high school i don't have that opportunity. i want to move out. not be held down by the parents. i want MY life to start.
i'm done with guys untill i can figure out MY life. untill i figure out what God wants for my life. i totally realized that it's His life i'm living, not mine. i'm done to get over my nasty little habbit. it's not acctractive in the least bit.
i'm tired of being treated like i'm a child all again. i've learned that using "i'm 18" line doens't always work. but i'm old enough to make responsible choices. just LET ME BE!!!!
aghh, i just have alot on my mind.

so i'm finally home for the summer. unless i get any invites to kick it at the beach. i want to go SOO bad.
so disney world was good. actually really good. it was alot of fun. i want to go back SOO bad and just take my time riding rides, going to shows, and watching as much fireworks and possible. it's just a magical place, nothing seems to ever go wrong when i'm there.
so i got home from disney, and like 3 days later i turn around and head to hillmont.
hillmont just wasn't hillmont this year. it wasn't as up beat as it normally is. there weren't as many kids. the kids weren't well bahaved. some of the kids seemed like they weren't excited to be there. to ME it seemed like the staffers were never on the same level.
i love camp, don't get me wrong. i loved my girls, i loved getting to be able to talk to them, and even though i didn't get through a single bible study we did still talk about God. it's like i did my own bible studies. i just guess i got burnt out way back in may because i was tired of all the work. but oh well, it's over. bye bye hillmont.
well, i'm done. HOLLER
