Family and friends

This past summer, I had an awesome time with my family and I learned a lot. My family is really honors the Lord. We had a praise serivice at my aunt and uncles house and she spoke up and said that she had burden on her heart for our unsaved loved ones and so I wrote her a letter that night saying what I thought of what she said and it made her cry. I am very quiet during a bible study, but I really like to share afterwards what I thought. I am the same way with my youth pastor. Every time I hear him preach or teach, I am very touched. He knows more about god then my mom did before she hurt her back and even more then she knows now. I am going to try to do better to email him after each week and share with him my thoughts.

Book review #1

I just finished doing my book report for school on the Freedom Writers' Diary. It really shows you what writing can do for you. A lot of the kids thought writing would make feelings worse, but it really doesn't, it gets your feelings out. Writing can turn your life around and it definatly did that for these kids!

Lexi and I wanting to be teachers!

I really want to thank my teachers for all they have done for me, but I just can’t do it enough. I have been influenced by my teachers to do great things. I want to start preparing for my Career now. I am going to write every day. I am going to take classes to help me get my Career in high school! I am also going to try and do a book review every time i read a book. My math teacher was telling my class that if you don’t start paying attention now to try and get this stuff now, you will not get your degree. My friend and I want to go to college together, and so I need to start preparing her math wise right now. Please pray for me so that I can start working with her now.

My Calling

I am just totally moved and touched my middle school teachers for what they have done for me. Especially my 7th grade language arts teacher and my 8th grade math teacher. They did so much for me that I can't thank them enough. My calling is to do what they do and that is ot teach and to do what they did for me, but for someone else. I can't wait to start working and I really hope I get to work with them. The Lord gave me those two speific teachers because, when you a have teacher that makes a difference in your life you almost all the time teaching what they teach! My friend and I want to go to college together!!!! I think it would be good for her to go to college with me because I found out the other day that you may end up in a lower level class if you don't pay attetion in math now. I hope and pray that I can start helping her in math now!!!!!!!!!!!! Her name is Lexi!!!!!!!!!! She wants to be a kindergarten teacher and I want to be a 7th grade language teacher, but that does not mean we can't go to the same college. I hope the Lord will make that happen for us!!!!!!!!!!!!

My aunt and Uncle

This morning, I felt like the Lord wanted me to write out what happened on my vacation. Me and my family go and see my family in Vermont every summer. My Aunt and Uncle take me under their wing every time I see them. They are my favorite aunt and uncle. The Lord gave them to me ever since I was born. In august of 2007, my aunt and I got closer in our relationship. I always get so anxious when I know our time together is getting closer and closer. The devil attacked her this year and then the lord blessed both of us and stopped it. My cousin broke the spout off of her soap dispenser and then she started picking on him like crazy. A couple days after that, she went to fill it and she over-filled it. It made the counter slippery, then it slipped back and she tried to catch it and it cut her little finger quite deep. She got five stitches and then my cousin wrote a funny song for her. Then the next day, her desk chair slipped right out from underneath her. The a few days later, she was finally able to get back in her pool with me. The lord saved the ladder from hurting her hand even more. He blessed both us for that and used the pool to stop her attack. We were both blessed by that and I can’t wait to see them in two and a half months.

My Day Today

It has been a very long time since I have had a day like this!!!!! My dad and I badly clashed today!!!!!! He got really mad at me for treating him like dirt. I had puppet practice today and then we had to run some errands afterwards!!!!!! This morning is when things started. He told me that we was going to buy me breakfast, I thought he said “go get your breakfast” and so I went off because of what I thought he said. So because I did that he didn’t buy me breakfast. Then after church he bought me lunch and told why he didn’t buy breakfast. Then we went to the cable company and found out we have to switch our company. Then I went off again because I was scared of losing my favorite shows. We went to Wal- mart and got more boxes and as we were pulling I was trying to communicate with him and he said to me that he didn’t want to talk to me about anything and that he had work to do. He didn’t want to do anything for me today and it made feel like I mean nothing to him!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is been forever since me and my dad has had issues like this, in fact it was when Jeremy was here the last time that we had issues like this.

My Middle School Teachers

The best two school years of my life are coming to a close end. God has given me my teachers and so I know I will never lose them. I even believe God will put some of them in my future.
The teachers I believe that he will put in my future are Mrs. Mattingly, Mrs. Geswein, Mrs. Saylor, Mrs. Lang, Mrs. Poole, Mr. Williams, Mr. McGee, and Mr. Stowe. I have many more teachers than that, but some of them may be retired when I get back, which is in 8 to 12 years.
I am very sad to be leaving the school that they teach in because God has used them to change my life. They have done so much for me. They make sure I can be with my friends, they have become my friends, they have taught me much more than just my education and they have taught me inspirational lessons as well.
Mrs. Mattingly has taught me to conquer my fear of standing up for myself. She has helped me to be able to talk to my teachers without being afraid. I have been able to show my teachers how I feel about certain things with any fear involved because of her.
Mrs. Geswein has been proud of me when I stand for myself in front of her and that right there is inspiration.
Mrs. Saylor has helped me whenever I need anything. She has been my go to person if I need something. She makes sure I have time with my friend Dominic when the opportunity comes up for us to have that time together in school. She has talked to my teachers for me when I have asked her to.
Mrs. Lang has made a better math student. She has helped me get through tough times, for example when Dominic moved out of my math class. She has picked on me about my relationship with Mrs. Mattingly and that has made us closer.
Mrs. Poole has brought me to realize that I need to tell her when she hasn’t done something for me that she needs to do. I will start doing that more and more in High School.
Mr. Williams has made me a better flute player. He has made sure I see my improvement. He has made sure that I am not afraid when I try out and when I get new music. I feel very proud to be one of his band students. I will miss next year as he goes to school. He has made a much better flute player than I was in 7th grade.
Mr. McGee has helped me to a better flute player as well. He makes sure I have a good day before I walk out of band. He understands how I feel about having time to talk to Dominic.
Mr. Stowe has made me a better social studies student than I was in 6th grade. He has also made me feel like a fabulous girl when I walk into his classroom and through-out class. He encourages me by bragging on me about how well I’m doing in class.
I will still have Mr. McGee next year, but I won’t have any of my other teachers and I’m very sad to be leaving them. I will always be their friend and I know they will be in my future. I will think about them all day every day next year. I will take the lessons that I have learned from them and my education and use it all through high school and college. I know I will improve even more with doing that.
