Alright! Look who is posting on their Xanga its your favorite person....

lol

Well everyone else is posting their weekend so....! I'm giving in to peer pressure...here it goes...

Friday: Me and Kara ditched small group (lol srry guys) and went to put songs on her i-thingy and Charlie almost ate us cuz we kinda conned him out of playing freddie fish....ANYWAYS: Went to fun night for not very long but apparently long enough for Raz to try and kill me. The girls all went to Lisa's and partied the night away! It was a total blast (except the whole 'waking up' part)

Sat: Major sleepage lol i had alot to catch up on. Then Brennan and those crazy people kinda woke me up so i went to bball. The games were AWESOME! Total slaugterhouses and everyone played superb! And Zach accomplished his major goal for the season of shooting a three lol. Then the 'tradition' of going to Mickey D's after the game, it was only Josh Dane Zach and I but it was still pretty fun. Went home and Kara wanted to hang out at like 9:30 PM so we kinda threw somthing together. Kara Zach and I went to Josh's and watched 'Phantom of the Opera' which is a good movie, but I wouldnt reccomend watching it that late cuz all that music will probably put you to sleep lol. Then I headed to Karas after the movie.

Sun: Chuch, which was cool. I had nothing to do in the morning so I got to roam about and be free! the pastor Hal finished his 'Dream big' series which was cool. After church kara josh tonya tiff and I sent to KOMBS the bestest place for lunch ever! well at least if you are on a low-budget. hehe then later on we went SWING DANCING. Which was a total blast minus the few random guys that decided they wanted to dance with me. hehe. But it was good times, I learned alot i think. Even though I couldnt do the spin at all at first lol. But with some patience (THANK YOU! ) I eventually got in the swing of things. no pun intented . later I almost ran out of gas and freaked out... but thats another story

I think thats it. and i'm pretty tired of typing anyways. hehe

Learning Experiences

I did one of these last year, so I'm doing one for this year

I'm at work now so I'll come up with more later.

Things I’ve Learned in 2005

I’ve learned….That God’s plan for us is so awesome; we can’t even begin to fathom it. Think of your biggest, most wild dream…the one you don’t even think can happen…then upscale it by 10, 20, 100 and that’s just the beginning of what God has in store.

I’ve learned….That true friends will always be there. Even if they go on a short hiatus here or there, the ones that care about you will always be the ones who will stand by you when it all comes down to it.

I’ve learned….That girls get so jealous over stupid things sometimes. We can be so blinded by other things that we forget the things that are truly important. If I have done this, then guys I am truly sorry.

I’ve learned….That it is through the tough things friendships really grow and become stronger. Thanks so much to all my friends who have stood by me and encouraged me.

I’ve learned….That sometimes, all that is needed to lift the spirit is the company of a good friend.

I’ve learned….That God’s word never returns void.

I’ve learned….That girls can make boys do crazy things and vice versa boys can make girls do crazy things.

I’ve learned….Love NEVER fails.

I’ve learned….That some things aren’t quite as hard as you’d think.

I’ve learned….To always have hope in every situation. No matter how hopeless it may seem.

I’ve learned….That sometimes it takes hitting the bottom to truly appreciate the top.

I’ve learned….That actions speak 1,000 times louder than words do.

I’ve learned….To live day to day as to not dwell on the past or worry about the future.

I’ve learned….That trust is one of the most valuable things to give, and also one of the most terrible things to lose

I’ve learned….To seek first God’s kingdom and every other thing will soon follow.

I’ve learned….That time is very valuable. Its value gets even higher with age.

I’ve learned….That whatever is meant to be will be. Some of the things you might wish to come to be now may be better off not being anyways.

I’ve learned….How lucky I am to have the friends and family I have, and to be just where I am.

RANDOMNESS:

For those of you that missed this:

Chrissy: Hey guys I got a new guinea pig

Anthony: Really?

Genna: Yeah, Anthony why would you lie about getting a guinea pig?

Anthony: I don't know she just randomly says 'I got a new guinea pig'

Me: "Yeah Anthony, the Berliners miss you so much, they went out and bought a look-alike"

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

I hope all of your Christmas hopes and dreams come true
