We are invited to rejoice in every moment of life

Forever

Tue, 12 Jun 2007 15:44:58 GMT

It has been way to long since I last posted. Life has been going well. Of course there has been a few bumps in the road but it's all in HIS plan so I cant complain! School is going well. I'm taking a government class that I actually am enjoying. I think though now that it's summer and I'm only taking one class I like school so much more. I'm dancing everyday I can and it's amazing. The dance year has come to an end though so I will need to find other ways to keep myself occupied, but I'm sure it won't be hard with Anne, Scott, Andy ,and Steve on speed dial. How is life for those who still read and/or post?

I wish I had what I needed
To be on my own
'Cause I feel so defeated
And I'm feeling alone

And it all seems so helpless
And I have no plans
I'm a plane in the sunset
With nowhere to land

And all I see
It could never make me happy
And all my sand castles
Spend their time collapsing

Let me know that You hear me
Let me know Your touch
Let me know that You love me
And let that be enough

It's my birthday tomorrow
No one here could know
I was born this Thursday
22 years ago

And I feel stuck
Watching history repeating
Yeah, who am I?
Just a kid who knows he's needy

Let me know that You hear me
Let me know Your touch
Let me know that You love me
And let that be enough

Are you listening...?

I'm so thankful for the friends I have in my life! Without you and your encouragement, when I need it the most, I would be more sad than I have felt! Thank you so much for your love! HAHA Want to hear something a bit sad and funny... I was reading a book today and I was so into it I forgot to go to work! OOPS....!?! =O WHAT A WEEK!!!

A New Beginning...

Thu, 31 Aug 2006 21:38:41 GMT

Okay so... I have officially started college. I'll just say i was super nervous... It wasn't that bad though! I just have three more classes to face and this nervous feeling will go away! The first home football game of the season for Northern is tonight. I'll be there watching my guard girls and of course cheering my amazing and adorable little brother on!!! I guess I'm glad I didn't leave home so soon! I think I would miss my brothers support! I love you Dev!!

Lexie, look at what picture I added! So exciting I love it very much!!

Rejoice in everything that is good....

Although most would think that my summer has turned out to be pretty much a bummer, I see it as a very growing experience. I'm far from enjoying what is going on during this period of my life, but if that's what I based my decisions and life on I wouldn't be going anywhere. Love is complicated, blind, and aggravating but we all go through it and so far I'm surviving. Thank you God, so much, for the enjoyable moments i have had this far... please let them continue and grow.

Blessed

I think I am back to my usual self outwardly. I feel less sad all the time and I can function again. I'm really excited because I am super busy all the time and I love it so much. Thank you for all who have been praying for me, please continue your prayers because they have been helping me so much. I love you all.
Even though I have an open house or two or five every saturday I have so much fun at them all! I cant wait again until this weekend.

Heart ache....

Thu, 15 Jun 2006 21:12:54 GMT

When I read my past entries I begin to feel the warmth of the memories I had and spent with you. I enjoyed every moment of us... but then I realize the hurt I'm putting you through. I'm so sorry... Give me time to grow. Wait for me with open arms, Ill come back to you.

Please God

Wed, 14 Jun 2006 14:33:13 GMT

The hurt I feel is so painful... I feel it all over, emotionally and physically. I cant stop thinking that I did the wrong thing. I did what I did so that I could strengthen my relationship with God but it hurts so much. Please pray that God will guide me. I really need him right now! For a little while yesterday I felt better, but because I did I hurt even more... The tears in my eyes may have slowed down, but the tears wont stop flowing from my heart...

Synapse Photography opens tomorrow June 10th 2006 located in Video King on M-59. My mom is starting her new business in this little plaza across from the MJR theater.

Prom was so much fun! I have always heard stories that it ended sadly for most people or they were just bored of it, but I actually had a lot of fun! I didnt think Dan would want to dance very much but we danced more than half the time. He helped my night to be special and magical! Michelle B. won prom queen and Tim R. won prom king it was very exciting! After we came back to my house and had a bon fire. It had rained before so it wasnt that large erk... oh well it was nice and warm. Everyone went home at 3:00. I was really tired and it took me a half hour to take my hair down. I had 63 hair pins. I thought I had more because it hurt so bad but I was wrong.
Today I slept in until 11:30 which is late for me. Then I went to Pet Land with Dan and we played with this little beagle who in his glass cage looked so sad but when we played with him he didnt stop moving, he was so hyper.... my arm has so many marks from his teeth. He was so cute!!

Memorial Weekend....

Wed, 31 May 2006 18:37:43 GMT

Memorial weekend was a blast I was able to hang out with the Group of intermission Students and we helped out Pine Ridge Camp in Grand Rapids. I think i developed a nak for painting cement walls! I had a lot of fun!
Besides that i have a new plan for college and what i want to do! Im going to wait until next fall to transfer to Grand Valley and just take classes at OCC for the year. Ill get my prerequisites out of the way so i can save money! I have decide on a major. I think i want to be a social worker! It sounds like a lot of fun and i think that i would be good at it!!
I had to give my two weeks notice at work yesterday. I was very upset about it because i love my job so much but i am going to be too busy to have two jobs and go to school. The neat thing is im going to try and work there again in the fall.

TRINIDAD was awesome!!

Ba da ba ba ba....

Wed, 12 Apr 2006 17:05:20 GMT

Hello all... Im in school and having a blast! Cough Cough just kidding im really not in the mood to be here and listen to someone take attendance! Actually its quite entertaining when you listen to Mr. Pinho say everyones name! Well we are not doing anything and i finished all of my work early! So i decided to ramble on and on about silly things!
Monday I was supposed to work but had no idea and iguess so did two other people i was afraid i was going to get fired but i didnt! So when i was supposed to be working i went to Panda Kitchen with Dan. Then we watched mulan and then we watched Anastasia! Ah disney movies they are grand!
Tuesday I went to work and then i went to my dads. I watched American idol and my favorite person is Taylor Hicks! He is amazing! Then i went home and went to bed!
Today i will go home and pack for trinidad!

Wed, 12 Apr 2006 00:55:42 GMT

Yeah Im Pretty Much Excited.....

Wed, 12 Apr 2006 00:28:13 GMT

Three days until we fly to Trinidad!
Im so excited!
Daniel James Asher
I MISS YOU already!<3

Wed, 05 Apr 2006 16:45:47 GMT

I stayed home from school today. Im not sick or hurt or even tired i just didnt want to go! The only silly thing about it is I'm not allowed to skip any more this year except for senior skip day! Im not even allowed to miss the day after Trinidad. Which isnt so bad because ill be to excited about it to stay home... I think!?! Im not sure how exhausted we will be. Maybe I'll just go in late!
So while im at home im doing homework... this is just a little break! Im writing this essay for math about the most influential mathematician in the field of probability and its killing me! The guy im doing is Joseph Doob he did a lot and its interesting but its really hard to understand what he did. I have to write three pages about him! Right now I have one in a half.
On monday I went and saw stay alive with Dan. Ill have to say that i was freaking out the whole time. I already jump over really silly things when you add extra scary things to it Im a wreck. I think because it was at the movie theatre it was a bit more terrifying than it had to be. If i watch it again I probably wont get as scared. But it was funny when i went to bed that night there was a cat outside my window that was making a really loud cry like something was going to attack it. The sound flipped me out! Oh goodness i feel silly!

Grand Valley State University

Sun, 02 Apr 2006 22:41:56 GMT

So I have figured out where I want to go to school. Im so excited to tell everyone. On Monday, my mom drove us to Grand Valley for dance auditions. Because we had to drop my sisters off at school we missed the first hour of auditions for ballet. It wasn't so bad because I had another hour to go, only it was for modern. I have never taken modern before so I had fun learning some new things. After the aditions we went on a campus tour and I absolutely fell in love with it. I lost all my fears of living away from home. At first I didnt want to go to GVSU unless I could dance there, but as soon as I finished the tour I didnt care. Which is good because I received a letter yesterday and it said they didn't accept me into the dance program. I knew I wouldn't make it because I missed the audition for ballet. My plan any way now is to start at OCC for the summer and then transfer my credits as a sophmore. I still need to pray about it but im excited to have a plan!

Love is patient Love is kind,,,
