"You Can't Take It with You"

I got a part in  the spring play: "You Can't Take It With You"! It is a dramedy (a comedy with a moral lesson) and so far it is histerical! It's set in the 1930's and my character, Gay Wellington, is an "actress" who Mrs. Sycamore meets on a bus and invites home to read one of her plays. She is an alcoholic and gets very drunk and passes out shortly after arriving at the Sycamore's home. Basically i am a younger version of Miss Hannigan from the play/movie "Annie".

I know you guys have a short attention span so if you want to know more about it come see the play (April 18-20) or google it. :)

Here are some pictures i found: 

Cadbury Eyebrows

Share Yourself T-Shirts!

Ok so i know this probably isn't going to be very effective considering only a handful of people actually read this blog. I have to start getting an idea of how many t-shirts to order before i actually order them. They are probably going to be around 10 or 15 dollars depending on how many i can order and sell the first time around. The profits go to various ministries in Toccoa like a crisis pregnancy center and a soup kitchen. (Read more on my blog "React") It's is a really cool way to be the hands and feet of Christ so if you want one hit me up! And please tell everyone you know about them. Print out the pics, whatever you want. Comment or call me. 

Recent Nuggets

I saw this on Rach's blog who saw it on Jeremy's blog and i decided to copy them... :)

I guess these are like little nuggets of my life recently. Thoughts. Realizations. Reminders.

Let's see where to begin...

I have read my face off in the last few weeks

I have underestimated my friends lately

I've learned that people don't pay as much attention to you as i fear they do

I've also learned to knit

The highlight of my day is trying to complete workout videos with Tori and Brooke without laughing the whole time

Im incredibly excited about God's plan for my life through the counseling program and eventually social work

but...

Im still shocked that my major's building burnt down

I've learned that freedom has a way of destroying things

I've also noticed that the walls of our room are paper thin (i still love you care)

Recently i've been able to use hard things in the past to help someone now and it's beautiful how life works

College books are expensive

I need to learn to have more faith in people and probably in God while im at it

I also need to be constantly aware that when i mess with a part of a person's life i mess with their entire life

and finally

too much peanut butter makes me sick :)

Choconutters

Bread + PB + ChocoChips = another delectable revolution in sandwich making!

Enjoy!

Pink Sunsets

I've always had a thing for pink sunsets...

Last year on the way back from passion i was talking to Melissa Pope about them and she told me that they are caused by the reflection of light against pollution in the air. 

more pollution= more brilliant sunset

I took this picture the night of the fire. I just thought it was so beautiful that God could make something so breathtaking out of such a catastrophe. 

Isn't our God creative? 

To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.  ~Isaiah 61:3

Gate Cottage Fire

Our Counseling building/Falls Gift Shop/Gate Cottage Restaurant burnt to the ground earlier this morning around 2:30. I have the video link (hilarious by the way... you have to check that jive out!)  above and a few pictures. Pray for TFC!

Naptime Adventures!

So i took a nap today... every time i take naps i have the craziest dreams! 

And so it begins...

My mom, David (my stepdad) and i were looking around in this old abandoned skyscraper for who knows what. I really cant remember what the big deal was but we were really paranoid. We were afraid that "they" were going to catch us looking for whatever it was that we were looking for.

All of a sudden we find this baby... but not just any baby. This baby makes really creepy facial expressions. I don't know how to explain how weird it was but it sort of looked like adult eyes in a baby's head and it made really mature expressions. I felt like i could have an intelligent conversation with this baby. Anyway we left "it" there because the "people" were catching up to us. 

Here's where it gets good... We jump on our "hoverboards" and fly to a restaurant. As we walk in i notice that i have a tracker thing that makes me see infared sort of. I can only see the body temperature of the baby's mom. (convenient) So i see her but when i turn it off i cant find her. Then everybody leaves the restaurant except my aunt and cousin and this random lady who is at a table by herself. My family and i go seat ourselves with my aunt and try to figure out how to figure out who the "baby-momma" is. But lo and behold i have this grand epiphany! I reason that the lonesome lady across the restaurant must be the baby-momma because that's just how dreams work. So my mom goes over to talk to her. ...I have know idea why... Somehow i forgot that it was a dream and... here's where it gets embarassing... i pray for my mom... I know! When i realize what i just did and that this is just a dream i wake up laughing. 

I really do hope this saga continues...
