Gare just revealed to me that he wants to take me...
I don’t know how to feel about this! Fear?! Excitement?! Anxiety?!
Omg.
I'm having one of those days when I feel like I'm...
I need a jumpstart.

Understandable, it happens! Anytime :)
Hey, endurelove?
Please give credit where credit is due! I mean no disrespect… a lot of people have benefited from your post, but don’t accept praise for these writings when in actuality they are not your own.

Hey cool!
My name is of French origin and means “God is my strength”. For the win!
I looked up my boyfriend’s name too, and even though his full name is Garrett, which means “brave spear”, his nickname, Gare, means “short”. Haha, who would call their child “short”? That’s awfully funny :)
peaceandjam:
not even joking, that last paragraph is exactly what i have had to come to terms with over the last six months.
you completely just took the words out my heart.
and you shouldn’t shy away from the camera, you are actually beaauuutiful, for reals!
Really, you too?? It’s funny, because it seems as though we all experience it at some point or another. Even the most gorgeous...

God is a master of clockwork, you know. His design fits together so perfectly, so seamlessly! It’s amazing.

codythisfall asked: TMI on your ovaries. hahahah
Demons in my ovaries.
I want to die.
AUUGGHH.
How would you describe the perfect girl?
chrisyoungblood:
She’d be an inch and a half shorter than me with three freckles that make a triangle in the middle of her collarbone. Hazel eyes would make my blood electric with every stare. Her cheeks would hit the hang up button on her cell phone and they would warrant a perfect line from a song to be dedicated to them as we dance in circles on the carpet of my living room. She would wake in...

By the grace of God, I am what I am.
I make great goals.
But I’m awful at keeping them.
This isn't going to be funny to anyone else, haha.
Solomon: I made out with a girl before. You didn't know that!
Me: No way! You've never made out with anyone before.
Solomon: Yes, I did!
Me: I don't believe you. What's her name then?
Gare: (whispers) Gabi, what's his best friend's name?
Me: (whispers back) Uhhh... I dunno... Clarence!
Gare: You made out with Clarence!
Solomon: Who's Clarence?
Gare: (to me) Nice one.
Me: Hahahahaha.
God said, "No."
imhisbeloved:
I asked God to take away my habit. God said, “No. It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.”
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole. God said, “No. His spirit is whole, his body is only temporary.”
I asked God to grant me patience. God said, “No. Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn’t granted, it is learned.”
I asked God to give me happiness. God...
We lost :(
My parents had a meeting with the director guy and the principal of the school where he works and where the show takes place. The man completely denied everything. The ball was in our court and the principal sided with him. Turns out he was going to “let me stay” but I would only get to perform in half the shows and my “understudy” (who is actually his son’s...

A harsh truth… but a truth that needs to be heard.
I'm so lucky.

icantdance7 asked: Hey! I'm sorry to hear about the whole play ordeal. That all seems really unnecessary. I'm glad though that you're not going to let them bully you. It shows a lot of maturity in the fact that you're letting go of the play to hold to your boundaries. I'll be praying for you. I just wanted to give you some encouragement!
I am so unbelievably upset.

They kicked me out of the musical. My first main role and the directors are kicking me out over an honest mistake.
…
I don’t know why this has to be such a huge deal. It’s a middle/high school play!
You said it yourself. It’s not a big deal. I’ve been in similar situations, and when it’s come to a point where I can fight in order to...
I am so unbelievably upset.
whatitsliketodie:
Let’s see… you can stay if you pay their daughter for some music lessons you don’t need? Wouldn’t that be called extortion in a less polite world? They don’t deserve you. I’m sorry the people seeing Grease won’t see your talent, but really, that’s awful. I hope you let people know about the pay for lessons thing, and then go to Cleveland, enjoy the reunion, and go to the...

They kicked me out of the musical. My first main role and the directors are kicking me out over an honest mistake.
About a month ago, my dad booked a trip for him and me to go visit my brother in Cleveland, whom we haven’t seen in years. When I auditioned for Grease, I didn’t put the trip on my conflicts sheet for some reason… either I had forgotten about the trip or...
But I am le tired...
I am so worn. Emotionally, physically, mentally… you name the energy and I guarantee you I’m all out.
Lord, I need peace. Just some rest of thought and attitude so I can begin tomorrow feeling renewed and fresh.
Come and build Your home in me. I’m not glorifying You like I should be.
I haven't been on here much.
I guess it’s a good thing though; I’m starting to get into a nice tradition of reading my Bible every night. I swear, I keep having all of these personal revelations every time I read and I really want to come on and talk about them but finals and Grease rehearsals are whisking my free time and patience away.
I miss reading all of your posts! After this week is over, I’ll try...
God, I pray that I'll let you be more than enough...
morethanfine:
When the waves crash upon the rocks, and when the going gets tough; when my walk is one that is lonely and the path long, You will be the one who will lift me up on wings of love. Because when I’m weak, You take me, hold me and make me strong.
I don’t know how I’m going to survive this year without you. I want You so much more than the momentary bursts of happiness, the catchy...

I love how each song leads into the next. Thanks for the suggestions, Miss Capelesscrusader! And Miss Kaleighm! <3

Don’t be afraid to blink in front of those camera lenses, darling; don’t let them write their names all over you. Don’t drink the glasses they give you. You’re not transparent, see, you’re speckled and gold and blossomed like the rolling hills. You’re a ball of clay.
But don’t fear, it’s okay. You’re in His hands now, it’s alright. Take...
I'm going to do whatever I can to make this...
Please, please, please…
