Who Am I?

Well I'm just another bored teenager of course. Well I don't like to think of myself as average. I am simply me. I am who God created me to be and I'm ok with that. I'm not perfect. I'm not the prettiest or the smartest girl you'll ever meet, but I'm comfortable in my own skin. I have a purpose in life and I'm going to figure that out and fulfill it someday. I'm different and I don't mind. Some people think I'm weird or strange or crazy, but I don't mind. Love me or hate me, it's your choice and not really something I can change. I know I'm not going to be everyone's favorite person but that's ok, I don't have to be. As long as I can be myself and live life how I should, I'll be happy. I'll deny that sometimes and think I'm miserable, but deep down I'll be happy. I'm not the cookie cutter little miss perfect either. I have my flaws, I've had my tough times that have gone to the extreme. I've gone down dark roads and I'm lucky (not to mention thankful!) to be writing this. Don't try to label me, it's impossible.

He is Risen!

He died for me and rose again about 2000 years ago. Today in church we learned that the correct response to "He is Risen" is "He is Risen indeed!" Just thinking about the pain someone had to go through for someone else just blows my mind. It makes sense to me because who would die such a horrible death for a lie? His skin was ripped off, he was tormented, given multiple chances to get out, and fulfilled every prophecy of the ancient texts.
I didn't really have any Easter plans, but since spring break is coming to and end (I go back to school a day early for theatre) I've tried to reconnect with reality. Let's see, I've got a paper due on Wednesday and another APUSH packet with tons of words to look up due on Friday. Yep, lots of homework. Not to mention I'm bringing my guitar to school on Tuesday so my friend can show me a few things.
It's also the week of Benefest and my nerves are eating me alive. Pray for good weather, it's looking beautiful now but NC weather is so bipolar. Raffle stuff is mostly in, concessions are almost all verified, a couple more donation baskets need to be bought/made. Note the "almost" and the "mostly" and the "couple more" That means it's not done, it's nearly done. Thus the nervousness of the event director. It's funny how people are like "You're 16, and you're trying to direct and coordinate an entire benefit event?" They laugh now but they'll see on Saturday.
