He's a Talker

VVV that last post was an accident, but I'm keeping it because Noah's is cute in both, of course!

Correlation of Salvation and Love

It's the choices who make us who we are.
Go your own way, even seasons have changed, just burn those new leaves over.
So self-absorbed you've seemed to ignore the prayers that have already come about.



My reflection on these lyrics:
Line 1: Actions speak louder than words. What you do in in your everyday life defines who you truly are. No matter how much you deceive and talk "up" about yourself to others, who you are alone is who you are forever.

Line 2: Go along your own path, and burn the bad that you've done in the past. Move on. Don't let others influence you...be yourself. Make the correct choices for your own life without allowing others to deter your lifestyle.

Line 3: And the last line just about defines 99% of all Americans and their ridiculous high-headed ego's.

MORALS

I am SO glad that I have them, and they are strong.

Falling

More and more in love with Journalism as time goes on.

I Agree

Could this be out of line
To say you're the only one breaking me down like this?

You're the only one I would take a shot on.
Keep me hanging on, so contagiously.

Officially

Done and over this. Want so hard to succeed, but am constantly feeling dragged down. I don't need this in my life.


Sometimes it's just too hard to look at the bright side, especially when your bright side seems so dim.

I have a lot to think about.

Goodnight, blog.

Much Needed

I needed a night like tonight after such a hectic week with school and work. It was the perfect way to end the week!

It was a fun night and a good day for sure. Let's continue to live like this forever.

Thank you, Lord for blessing me with everything I have and with such an amazing family. I truly have the greatest people in my life!

But there are also many things that need to start changing. I need to learn to be more straight-forward than I already am. I need to live out this Godly life that I've been wanting so badly and that I've been working so hard for. I can't keep going back on my word any more.
As of tonight...as of NOW, I'm firmly abiding by God's word. No one gets to pick and choose what they think is right and wrong. He clearly tells us, and if anyone in my life believes otherwise, then it's unfortunate.

There are eyes in others that the Lord needs to open, but it all takes time and faith. I fear that a majority of the people in my life reject God and his word simply because they don't want to be a part of it. Why? Because it's either "too difficult" or it keeps you from doing certain things.

I'll always continue to pray for these people. I'm admitting that from NOW on, my life is going to change. It has to! No more temptation and no more deceit.
If your loved ones really care about you, they shouldn't persuade you to do something that you are trying to overcome. This is the most difficult part.

But I CAN and WILL do it.

Goodnight blog!

Jake!

Oh College

So Much to Learn

In such a small amount of time...

Lesson:

Relationships, work, and success do not cocme easily or on their own. You have to work toward these three things for your entire life, to your fullest extent if it is of any importance to you.

Nothing develops on it's own. If you want your relationships, work ethics (or habits), and success to grow, exert your one hundred percent effort in order to make it work.

Good morning, this is a start to a whole new day.

School

School is going to be absolutely insane this semester. I'm just hoping that my mind isn't going to be a complete scattered mess with these 19 units, all while working 30+ hours a week.

How do I do it?...I'm still trying to figure that out.

Spanish
Statistics
Writing and Reporting for the Media
News Media Staff (The Student Voice; college district Newspaper)
Broadcast Journalism

School, five days a week. Oh man, life is changing...but it is for the better.
There is so much that I need to overcome this semester. There is so much for me to learn.

What's social life? Yeah, I'm not gonna have one this semester. Not to mention, half of Rachel is going to be gone...an hour and a half away.

God is gonna get me through this, we're gonna power our way through this...all in the name of love. His love.

Goodnight.

vvv LOL

See how mad I got about stupid traffic school?

WOOO, well it's done.



It was a pretty good day...very busy and a little spaced out from a lack of sleep last night, but it was still worth it! Life is good, and God can't bless me any more...really. Thank you for being my guiding light and offering me grace and forgiveness.

What would I be without Him and the love that he shows me? Nothing, because we are nothing without you. You have never failed me...and Lord, you never would.
Goodnight.
I'm so annoyed and aggravated right now, it's not even funny......omg.

I think I'm going to scream at the top of my lungs.

Nothing can break me from this motivation.

I am going to achieve all of my dreams in the most honorable way possible.
I want to be a journalist who can rewarded for the accuracy in reporting, I want to be someone who people want to listen to and will take the opinion that I hold into consideration.

I want to be a journalist known for her integrity, good morality, dedication, trustworthiness, and known for her absolute love for this country.

I am going to be a journalist who achieves all of the above, and I will conquer my dream with confidence, through working hard and keeping focused - it's so easy to be distracted; I'm not going to let that happen.


I am going to be a successful journalist.

I will not allow myself to settle for less.

I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity.

The beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair.

Conclusion:

Fight and work hard for what you want, because it will never naturally come to you.

Alrighty, it's time to go out and have a good time with Jannelle. This weekend has been a really good one altogether. YEEE-UHH! :]

Goodnight blog.

Getting into Troubleee

Santa Monica

There's just one last thing that I have to say...

As we reflect on the mess of all of this I've made.

It was cowardice that made me push you away,

I was so afraid 'cause you were so much better than me.


I guess it's up to me to find a way to get to you.

Slammed

Tomorrow....dang. Wooo hoo!

...broken clock? HAHAH.

Why

Do I choose to be so blind?


When in reality, God has shown me otherwise...? Am I preparing myself for disaster?

Maybe.


Quite possibly.
