senior madness

So its my senior year and it has been quite fun. No I do not have an easy schedule and no I'm not graduating early, but besides those points its really fun. I love watching the underclassmen scamper around and sprint off to their next class. I love that I get to leave campus to go to lunch <<>>. I love that one of my best friends has a Disney princess back pack and another friend has a Buzz Light year lunch box. I love actually dressing up during Spirit Week. Its just fun.



This is the egg that I dropped from the bell tower for my physics project. I named it Hubert Martin cause it just seemed appropriate. It wasn't supposed to break but that's OK.

Also I had more pictures to put up my my computer is spazzing out... I'll try again later.

Carrier of the Cross


Simon, oh Simon. Carrier of the cross.
On that day, you were forced to come.
Picked out of the crowd, pushed into the road.
But how did you go? Were you eager to serve your Lord?
When Christ's blood covered your
Hands and Brow,
Were you filled with sorrow for your
Savior?
Or was your heart filled with disdain?
Did your eyes lock with eyes of life-
Life desperately fighting dark death?
Your sons believed in this Jesus, this much we know.
But were you proud to be an example
To them?
Simon, oh Simon. Did you weep
For Him or did you mock Him spitefully?
No matter your quest, did you know?
Did you know you would be an
Example for the coming ages?
A carrier of the blood soaked cross,
Simon, oh Simon.


Wrote this today in class about Simon the man who carried the cross for Christ. I want to know if he knew he could be an example of picking up our cross and following Him... Just a thought.

Is originality even a question?

Alright so today, I went and took my SAT test and we had to write and essay on the capacity of being origional and unique. I realized in the middle of writting that God has made us so different. And not just different but very different. I started thinking about High School camp and how, when your living among eachother, the differences really come out. God has really blessed us with personalities and characters. And how some of us are a little more "different" than others...

Often times monotonous

Today was sort of a boring kind of day. Maybe not boring but monotonous. Only the little details really made it interesting. The clouds were a bit brown this morning but fortunately they dropped a few shallow tears. My mascara smudged but I was more concerned at the fact that my converse are getting very dirty and I don't know if I can wash them. Or will washing them shrink the tinted canvas? Either way the rose bush seemed to sprout overnight. I didn't know that this is a season for roses- do roses have seasons?- but I do know that there was a beautiful pink rose on the bush this morning. It contrasted nicely with the brown clouds. Also, today I noticed how smiles make people look so unique. Without them, we would all look the same, which would be very boring. And cold weather definitely awakens a sleepy mind. That is, unless you are curled up nice and warm in bed. But if your not in your nice, warm bed, the cold does wonders when your tired.
I think I ought to go find out if I can wash my converse cause they are very grim and sad looking. But that is only a minor detail.
