Lazagna.... YUMMY!!

Tonight me and my sister are making lazagna... I'm soooo excited! We have alot of packing to do tonight so we actually have time to wait for it to cook (usually we are just too impatient). We are leaving tomarrow at 7:00am for Orlando. I'm also very excited about that... almost as much as I am about the Lazagna;) Jokes!
Yeah, tomarrow marks the beginning of four days of heart racing, vommit inducing ROLLER COASTER MADNESS!!! I can hardly wait! Somehow I seem to get alot closer to God when I'm riding roller coasters. There's just something about the simmulation of plummeting to your death that forces me to cry out loud for my God to save me... and he always does... he turns on the brakes and makes the roller coaster stop at the end. Sometimes I wonder if it will, but it always does. However the new roller coaster 'Shei-kra' at Busch Gardens has honestly got me a little bit worried. This requires one to fall from about 200 Ft, face down to the ground ... I CHOOSE LIFE!!! hehe.. anyway, je suis bored with the computer. end.

A normal...very busy Week.

This weekend was very busy for me... well, come to think of it this past whole week has been very busy for me. On friday night Caleb, Emily and I went to the movies to see "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". It was great! I didn't really think that it would be, because I kinda like the classic, but it was quite funny and the little boy in it could make you cry in like three seconds! Awwwwwe!!
Then on saturday my sister and I went to a Car wash for a youth group my sister goes to. It was fun, but they didn't really do much advertising and their church is kinda hidden so we didn't make too much money, but this weekend we may be having on in front of a K-Mart so that will probably go better. We are raising money for a four day trip to Orlando. We're going this Monday to Wednesday.
We are going to Disney World, Bush Gardens, The Holy Land Experience, and staying at a time share there where they have Jet skis. I'm sooo excited! This will be my first time at Disney World ( a dream ever since I was five). I am going as a chaprone and to drive one of the vans... pour kids;) JOKES!!
So, yeah, at the end of saturday my Sister had a really, really bad sunburn. She had to call in sick the last two days to work because she can't put any clothes on her sholders or back. It's nuts! She's got Blisters and everything. Finally today she can at least touch her forearms again without excruciating pain.
But something good did come from my busy weekend... I GOT A JOB!! I mean a REAL job... not just some cranky old lady who needs someone to yell at, oh no.... you are now reading an entry from a GOLF EXPERT! he he... well I work at a Golf Pro Shop:) I just got a job at AQUA Golf Range and Pro Shop. I work in the office/store working the cash and selling merchandise and round of golf. It's great! I've only worked one shift and already helped at least five men spend an afternoon on Golf instead of with their wives. I guess I'll be seeing alot of that where I'm working. It is really fun though. I get commission on whatever I sell from the shop AND as an added bonus, I get to play golf anytime I want... I'm gonna be a pro!! The other day I got a ball almost half way to the targets in the water. So maybe I'll be able to play on a real Golf course someday. We shall see... you may see me caddying for tiger woods one day! Speaking of stars... if you want to see where I work, just rent the movie 'Something About Mary'. In that movie Cameron Diaz and Matt Dillon shoot some golf balls at our Shop (Aqua Golf). YAY!
So anyway that was my life this weekend. I will be sure to keep you posted about how my trip goes and my job too. hAsta!

My New Friend Dennis- he's a fiesty little guy!

We are now in the middle of my first (pretty bad) hurricane. Well, it is kinda passing by us, but really it is so big that we are getting alot of wind anyway. Last night was the wildest night ever. I didn't get to sleep until about 4:30am. Mostly because I thought the tree outside my window was going to collapse on me if I went to sleep. I could hear it ( and all the other trees) moaning and cracking all night... let alone the rain that I thought was going to come thru the roof. Everything was so loud and there was no where to go to escape the noise... so I just layed there wide awake all night. Grrrrrrr! Anyway, so, this morning when I woke up we realised that the loud wind we heard was actually a small Tornado blowing right thru our park! Suddenley it all made very scary sense. All I can say is it is a good thing I didn't know what it was last night, I probably would have freaked out just a lil'. So today most of the day was spent helping my dad clean up the park. There was a tree down across the street and branches were everywhere.Honestly, its kinda like a warzone down here. Even when you're driving on the streets there isn't very many cars out (compared to usual) and there are trees and branches all over the road. Who knew a little wind could do all that damage?! You can't turn on the TV without seeing something about either Dennis or London. It's kinda got me a little bit scared. I mean if I didn't know God was in complete control I would probably be losing my mind with everything going on around this world. I have certainly had my faith in God tested alot this week, but at least now I know exactly who to go to for comfort whenever I feel my world crashing down. God my protector and comforter, you deserve all my praise!

Life

Sometimes I wish I could just fly away. Leave this earth ( or at least any part of it connected to the ground). I want to get away from this worlds ideals. Get away from Government ( earthly), family, friends, church, worries, cares, and even daily emotions. I want to be somewhere new! A place that excites me yet gives me peace as well. A place where life is good and death is bad. A place where people know what is right and what is wrong and where they always do what is right. A place where there is only one Governing figure, who is totally accesible at all times, and who really cares for the place he is looking after. I want to fly away to a place of no confusion, a place where I don't have to make choices about the things that confuse me... a place where I don't have to make choices at all. I want to get away from here into a world of pure beauty, where it is never a question wheather someone is beautiful, because everyone knows that they're beautiful. A place of equality. A place where the leaves on the trees never go dry or whither. A place with water that sparkles chrystal clear blue. A place where the sky is completely blue and perfectly sunny all the time, and the only clouds in the sky are always fluffy and white. A place where the air is so clean and crisp that you can literally feel it giving you life everytime you breath it in. I want to go away to a place where you don't want to close your eyes in fear that you might miss one second of its beauty.
I believe this is closer to what God had in mind for my life. I just wish I didn't have to wait until I get to heaven to enjoy the true reason God made me.
Father I want to be with you...
