Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.

It's a new year! Usually I'd either be super depressed about it OR I'd be excited for some specific reason, but this year it's neither.</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;">Granted, I was sad about the last year ending because 2011 was super great to me. I started off the year w/ a group of my most favorite people. Turned 21 and had a SUPER EPIC 21st birthday WEEK! Met the other side of my family[<3], beach in the winter, observatory trip, SKY DIVING! Got my license [finally] haha no shame. Dyed my hair pink! Then purple!! Took steps toward starting a career. And met some life changers of all ages <3 Of course there were definitely some tears, struggles, hardships, and times where I would wish that God would come right at that moment, but He pulled me through those moments and I have faith that he'll continue to do so, because some of them aren't over.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;">Ohhh 2012; I'm excited for the year in general. I feel like I'm at a good place in my life right now. I'm happy with who I am. My insecurities are at a minimum and I can be myself. I have two incredible parents who support me in every way. And my friends... oh my friends... <3 God has definitely spoiled me in that department. They're lifers, no doubt. They are my family.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;">Today in my makeup academy we took a quiz to see what our personalities are and I found out I'm a feeling personality, which totally explains a lot. There was a list that went along with this personality & one thing on that list was those unexplainable "gut feelings". And i have a gut feeling that this year will be great! Filled with many new experiences, some surprises, some heartache [always] but lots of joy. :] I'm looking forward to it.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;">Bring it on 2012! >:]</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;">p.s.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;">I'm most looking forward to Dec <b>13</b>, 2012 ;]</span></div>ohhMandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03489242995076539469noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1744299746335645842.post-5257188014799801242011-09-25T21:49:00.000-07:002011-09-25T21:49:29.906-07:00Family<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 11px;"><strong><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Q:</span></strong></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 11px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 11px;"><em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">You have said that family is the most important thing in the world… why?</span></em></span><br />

The squirrel wasn't doing anything, he was just sitting there staring back at the little boy. His Dad took a couple steps around a bush & some rocks & saw that, on the beach, there were at least 30 seals [or sea lions] just laying out on the beach & playing in the waves! Big ones, little ones, baby ones! So he went back to his son & wanted to surprise him & told him to come over to where he was because he wanted to show him something. The boy didn't move. His dad, really excited & hoping to get his attention, told him about the seals!

So we drove back home for the remote & brought it back.<br />He ended up giving us our refund moneys on a cash card [$1000ish], but forgot to give us the card... haha we got it, went shopping for a new tv, & after much looking & w/ the help of 2 very nice workers we finally decided on one.<br />The main nice worker who was helping us was also going to set us up for an american express costco card [i think that's what it was?] so he had my mom fill out this paper on top of a TV box & then we walked around somemore while he got us set up for the card. When it came time to pay my mom realized she didn't have the cash card!!<br /><br />She went bizurk! The guy was freaking out for us. She ran around retracing her steps & rechecking her pockets. He ran to customer service to see if they could cancel out the account. I stood in the aisle checking her purse, NOT freaking out, then went to look at video games. haha [i found a bakugan one & thought of the coolest kid EVER, my cousin Ethan :) miss him!]<br />The guy came back looking for my mom, I told him she was "that way", so he ran after her. Then she came back & was like where is he?? So i told her "that way", so she ran after him. Then they both found eachother & went back to freaking out. He left to go see what he could do still & just as she was about to cry, & as i was telling her NOT to panic, that everything will be fine! I looked at the box she filled out that paper on & i saw something blending in w/ it, but not exactly belonging there.<br />Me-What is that?<br />mom- what?<br />Me-THAT!<br />mom-WHERE?! *takes closer look at box* *realizes THE CARD IS THERE!!*<br />mom- AH! *starts to run away*stops, looks, at me, "AH!"*continues to run away to find nice worker "AAAAHA!!"<br /><br />Turns out he was on his way back to tell us that they wouldn't be able to cancel it because the office was closed. so PRAISE GOD we found it or some lucky bugger would be making off w/ our moneys! hahaha<br /><br />after that the guy wouldn't let my mom carry anything of importance. He gave the receipts & her membership card to me. hahaha He was really nice about everything, he even laughed.<br /><br /><br />My life is a sitcom. & it's ruled by Murphy's law. But i wouldn't trade it for the world. :]ohhMandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03489242995076539469noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1744299746335645842.post-56806518545885315462010-04-11T20:59:00.000-07:002010-04-13T16:18:36.248-07:00witty convosMom- You know, you can get paid to go to school!<br />Me- orrr i can stand on a street corner & sell my body! :D [joke]<br /><br />that earned me a "Gibs slap" but we had a laugh.<br /><br /><br />another funny convo between my friend & her mom while we were at the park sitting in a tree:<br /><br />Lisa's mom- where are you guys?<br />Lisa- we're at the park.<br />Lisa's mom- what are you doing there? getting high??

When you first got saved, you gave your heart to Jesus first. You didn't give Him your soul or our strength first. You gave Him your heart.<br /></span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;">Satan will <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">always</span> counterfeit what God does, and do the exact opposite. He'll always go after your mind first, because he <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">knows that</span> if he can get something into your mind and get you to think continually about it, then he can get you to do it. That's why it's so important to realize that you CAN control your thoughts and desires.</span></div><div align="center"><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;">Sin always starts in the mind. It's not sin to have an evil thought- that's temptation; but it is wrong to dwell on and entertain those thoughts. To make it simpler: A bird can lay an egg on your head, but only you can let him build a nest in your hair!</span></div><div align="center"><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;">James 1:13-15 reminds us that if we think about sin long enough, we'll desire to sin. If we want to sin, we will eventually sin. <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">After sin</span> is done, it will leave us dead. That's why it's so important to walk in the Spirit and feed your mind with the Word of God.</span></div><div align="center"><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;">Paul sums it up in Galatians 5:24,25: "And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit let us also walk in the Spirit." His Spirit helps you overcome evil desires!</span></div>ohhMandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03489242995076539469noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1744299746335645842.post-83675923707327925472009-12-20T15:07:00.000-08:002009-12-20T15:18:18.915-08:00Congrats
