Today's verse from BibleGateway.com
“The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights. For the director of music. On my stringed instruments.”- Habakkuk 3:19

FYI: This Sucks.
After doing Megan's hair and makeup for Amber's birthday party, I watched 'The Mist' and 'Girl, Interrupted' with Clayton and my mom. Watching the latter reminded me a lot of myself.
I wish my life prior to this moment could have been simpler, but I'm sure everyone else would like the same. Zach's beginning to add to the chaos. I think it's God telling me that it's time to let go.
"Test everything. Hold on to the good." - Joel the bear.
I think I crashed my car because He wants me to be more social. Seeing as I won't have a car for a bit, I'm going to have to bum rides to get out of my house, which is something I'm so accustomed to now and cannot stand being here for very long.
I become more and more surprised at the reactions of others the more I think about them. I've come to the conclusion that I will not find any compassion among any of these people who live in this world. I've decided to let my strength define me.
Joel hasn't called yet. I feel a little hopeless. I depend too much on him, but I don't feel like I have much else of physical means. By spiritual means, I feel I am abundant, but I tend to forget the feeling it gives me too easily and am quickly wound up in myself again.
I really want Yann Tiersen on my iPod. Or some melodramatic showtunes. Something instrumental. Something I can think to without my thoughts getting tangled up in annoying lyrics.

Summer Skin and Bad Luck v2.0
Summer Skin and Bad Luck
I lost the stuffed pig that took six hours to make. A dump truck wrecked the front end of my car. Zach's gone for a week and I can't get hold of him. My forehead and shoulders are peeling.
Things aren't going great and I don't want to talk about it.

Little More Awkward Than It Seems
I'm steadily getting more and more excited. I feel like baking and making bracelets. I plan on making as much stuff for Etsy as I can while Zach is gone so we can put stuff up when he gets back. I'm also almost done with "Pocket" the sock monster.
Tomorrow I want to make cupcakes after exams. I have to take the math and anatomy exam tomorrow, and I'm not all that worried. I took the a.p. history one today and I know I passed - probably with a D. Good enough for me.
Zach's leaving the day after tomorrow. I can't wait until he comes back home with the infamous George. It'll be nice to finally meet him. I need to cook before he comes!
This next week, if I can get my car back, I think I'll try to hang out with the gang a little. It's been so long since I've spent time with Clayton. Cupcake baking and basketball sounds fun. Johnny Cupcakes has taken over my life.
I'm still waiting on this sunburn to go away and I'm getting pretty anxious. My face feels really tight.
I also need to see Cassidy, Bradley, Kathleen, and Sarah a.s.a.p.! I think I'll plan a picnic for next week. Looking for shapes in the clouds is my favourite. Maybe even some bowling in Jensen with Cassidy.
Anyway, I have to go to school at 7, an hour earlier than I'm used to. Bed time it is!

Soma
“so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.”- Hebrews 9:28
There's no need to worry about mistakes.
I got to school half way through my english semester exam, so I have to stay after tomorrow and finish it. Tomorrow is also a.p. history semester exam day and I have yet to study. I'll do it in the morning. I was supposed to go to sleep at 9.
I saw Tara today for the first time in a long time. Fun. Everything and everyone has changed and it all feels so strange in a bad way.
Zach and I are getting pretty into this sock creature making thing. I'm hoping to have my first one done by tomorrow night.
Not really much to write. I'm excited about the future, especially the near future - last day of school is Wednesday.
I'm thinking about one day going to visit Derek and re-attempt to bring God into his life. He needs it more than ever and more than anyone else I know. I feel bad for him sometimes, though I probably shouldn't.
I'm getting wrestless again. I don't like not knowing what will happen, but I guess it's God testing my faith in him. I need more mind-numbing activities.
My sunburn on my face and shoulders gets in the way of things. My jaw hurts and I have to pee.
'Till tomorrow.

Slump
In a slump. I haven't done anything of much accomplishment in quite some time. I tried sketching a few things tonight and they came out pretty crappy. I would feel so much better if I were able to produce an exact image from my mind. It's filled with embarrassing mistakes, but I still don't regret anything. I have what I need to make me happy, but there's no way of working through this slump. I probably shouldn't worry about it. Though, I envy Zach's ability. But I am glad that I've found what I want; I realize it more and more everyday.
I didn't really do anything at school Friday. Checked out early with Zach to get Taco Bell. Haven't been working on a summer Bible study either, aside from school. The days have all become a blur.
I worked on the sock creature and snuck out to argue with Andrew at Zach's Saturday. Terrible night. I hope he leaves soon.
Today I went to the Dubois Park beach with Zach and his family. I really enjoyed it, even if the beach sucked, I got slightly sunburned, we had to leave extremely early, and I didn't take any pictures when I should have. I haven't been taking pictures of anything lately. Slump indeed.
It was nice to have had spent a little time with my mom this weekend. We made "banana boats" and watched Cloverfeild and Mad Money. Next weekend I think we'll be going to spend a day at Universal. Hooray!
It was raining a few minitues ago and I know I'm going to have trouble sleeping. It's almost 1 and I don't feel it at all.
