I am skipping number 3 on my list of 80 because I honestly can't think of anything for it.. so here we go with number 4.
I don't think I can pick one single music album to be used for a movie about my life. I think that it would be a bunch of different songs by different artists. There would need to be Nsync for sure! I listened to them all the time and I feel there are some songs that could definitely by used for moments of my life. Along with some Taylor Swift for all the boys I dated! She has some pretty dead on songs for the type of relationships I have been through. I would also need some Hillsong United and Tyrone Wells in there for all the worship songs that describe how I feel about my Lord and Savior. Some Avril Lavgne to describe my junior high phase haha!
I feel like I have lived a life thus far of excitement and sadness and joy and peace and hardships and times that were easy. So I feel like living such a mix life would cause me to have a mix of music!

Prince Charming
I've been sitting here
waiting, wishing,
on a prince to come
and rescue me
hand me a glass slipper
or awake me with
one simple fairytale kiss
I kissed my share of frogs
with no luck of them
becoming my prince
no magic mice or birds
to make me a beautiful gown
no fairy godmother or genie
to grant my every desire
Maybe I've been wrong
wishin' on stars and 11:11's
hoping, dreaming,
that my prince will come
But here you are
standing right in front of me
I can't look you in the eye
because I'm scared
you might be the frog who
holds my missing shoe
and can awake me
with just one simple kiss

Name something you lost or gave away that can never be replaced
I have been trying to think of something I have lost that can't be replaced and I have come up empty. I think because there is nothing physical that can not be replaced. So when I thought about non-tangible things that I have lost all I could come up with is friendships. From elementary right up to my junior year of high school I had a best friend. We hung out all the time, we knew everything about each other and were just really great friends. All this was thrown out the window over me dating a boy. It was stupid and it sucked, she was my best friend but she couldn't just be happy for me. Things ended and that friendship was lost. But when I look back on it, it was a special friendship. One that meant the world to me, one that I learned a lot from and one that helped mold me. I am still hurt when I think back on it, when I look at how different our lives have become. When I sit and wonder how she is. I can only ever pray that she is happy and that she gets everything she wants. I hate losing friendships, because they always mean something very special to me. Each and everyone. Since that friendship I have done my best to make every friendship I have last, sure they don't always, and i learn and grow from them. I guess friendships are the one things you can lose and never gain back because they are all unique.

Shootin' Hoops...
Yesterday at work, I was scheduled to be on the playground.. So there I was walking around, and there was this little boy, he's a little bit on the awkward side, but he is a sweet kid. He was standing there with a basketball not doing anything. I hate seeing kids by themselves, not playing with anyone. So I walked over and asked him what was up.. he said nothing, wanna play? so I said ok! and he threw me the ball. I took a shot.. and missed, he gave the ball back to me. I told him no its your turn, and he with such a little voice told me "I can't." He began to tell me that he isn't good, so I took another shot and missed. I told him "see I'm not good at this either" and with that he took the ball and tried to shoot. He missed, but I saw the biggest smile grow on his face. And he kept going! He kept trying over and over. Then another boy came over. He was another one of those kids that likes to hang out by himself and doesn't like to play with the other kids either. I invited him to come play, and i heard a familiar sentence, I am not very good at this. I jokingly said, neither are we so it'll be perfect come play. So we alternated back and forth, as i warmed up i got better and making shots, but the coolest thing was the kid who joined us, kept trying and he made a basket! I can't even begin to describe the look on this kids face when he saw the ball go into the basket. He had the biggest grin! And not only was he excited, but the other boy, who was struggling to make a basket, but never gave up, was just as excited for his new friend! Watching all this take place, gave me this warm fuzzy feeling in my heart. I thought, this must be how God feels when, we are faced with a challenge, and we are persistent and keep trying, even if we fail a few times. Even when he gives a challenge that we aren't very good at. So keep trying, don't give up, and be persistent. You eventually will make that Basket..

Goodbye 2010, Hello 2011!
Well, it is the start of a new year, and oh how excited I am for this new year! 2010 has probably been one of the toughest years of my life. I'm not even sure of how to start this recollection of the year.. but where better then the beginning?
I spent new years eve with friends from my old college group at my old church. It was such a great time and a great start to the year. From there I started my 2nd semester of college. The start of the year was really great!
I felt like it was going to be a year of fun, friends and laughter! I gained some really great friendships, and spent a lot of time with Mark and Jamie. God could not have blessed me with 2 greater people in my life for the things that were in store!
I became a Disneyland pass holder, and It def changed my life! I spent almost one day of every week at Disneyland this year! It was that one place where you couldn't possibly be upset! Was given flowers on Valentines day... celebrated my birthday... And had fun!
But by May, my fun year had taken a turn.
My granddaddy had gotten very sick, more sick then he's ever been. He later passed away.
Right around the same time my granddad passed away, the news that my church campus was closing and that we were all splitting up was delivered.
In august I got a puppy! He has been such a fun dog to have!
I also lost my church, and had to find a new one...
I went to my now current church for the first time by myself, and was welcomed with open arms. But the biggest struggle for me with this new transition, was opening up and starting to develop new friendships.
With the development of these new friendships, I started loosing the closeness i had with my old friends.
As the year went on i tried my best to stay in contact and to stay close, but with distance it is hard.
2010 was a big struggle for me. And I still hurt over some of the things that took place.
I miss the closeness I had with the friends from my old church. I miss having those people I knew were always there.
I hate how hard it is for me to find where I belong with these new friends.
But I love that God has never left my side through every little and big moment of this past year.
in a way, I am glad 2010 is over. I am excited for 2011. I look forward to seeing all that is instore for me with this year. And just seeing how God is going to use me.
