Untitled Hymn(Come To Jesus) -Chris Rice

Weak and wounded sinner
Lost and left to die
O, raise your head, for love is passing by
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus and live!

Now your burden's lifted
And carried far away
And precious blood has washed away the stain, so
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus and live!

And like a newborn baby
Don't be afraid to crawl
And remember when you walk
Sometimes we fall...so
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus and live!

Sometimes the way is lonely
And steep and filled with pain
So if your sky is dark and pours the rain, then
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus and live!

O, and when the love spills over
And music fills the night
And when you can't contain your joy inside, then
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus and live!

And with your final heartbeat
Kiss the world goodbye
Then go in peace, and laugh on Glory's side, and
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live!

Tanzanite

Tanzanite is a very special and unique gemstone. World-wide it occurs only in one specific location. Its blue colour which shimmers in a slightly purplish hue is magnificent indeed. Because of its unusually attractive flair it was easy for New York Jeweller Tiffany’s to make it one of the most sought-after and popular gemstones in the world.

.....does anyone else find lawn gnomes kinda weird and slightly creepy?

Find Yourself by Brad Paisley

When you find yourself in some far off place
and it causes you to rethink some things
You start to sense that slowly you're becoming someone else
And then you find yourself...

When you make new friends in a brand new town
and you start to think about settling down
The things that would have been lost on you are now clear as a bell
And you find yourself, yeah thats when you find yourself

Well you go through life
so sure of where you're headed
And you wind up lost
and its the best thing that could have happened
Cause sometimes when you lose your way, its really just as well
because you find yourself, yeah that's when you find yourself.

When you meet the one, that you've been waiting for
and she's everything, that you want and more
You look at her and you finally start to live for someone else
And then you find yourself, yeah that's when you find yourself

Well you go through life
so sure of where we're headed
And you wind up lost
and its the best thing that could have happened
Cause sometimes when you lose your way, its really just as well
Because you find yourself,
Yeah thats when you find yourself.

Last night I watched Pirates 2. I thought it was great, except for the evil sea-animal crew of Davy Jones. That element kind of reminded me of the orcs in LOTR, I didn't really like those things. But other than that, Captain Jack and Will were lookin' pretty good : ) (don't you think so, girls? ) And I definately must see Pirates 3, so I'd say it's a pretty good movie. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd give it an 8 1/2.

"Where's that monkey? I need to shoot something..."

never mind...

i've decided that i don't really want to be 18 again. 19 is going to be lots of fun!

19 already?

So...today is my birthday. It seems strange that I have now begun my last year as a teenager. I suppose I could write a report of the past year, but I will just say that I almost wish I was turning 18 again. Like, I wish you got to be 18 twice. Oh well, 19 sounds pretty exciting too. :) And I just wanted to say: Thank-you all for being my friends. I was reading my graduation cards and the birthday cards I already got, and it made me feel really special and loved. At least, if what people write in those things is true. ;) By the way, the cake above is not my actual birthday cake, just one that is very similar. (The real one is like ten times more fabulous)

There Once Was a Puffin

Oh, there once was a Puffin

Just the shape of a muffin,

And he lived on an island

In the bright blue sea!

He ate little fishes,

That were most delicious,

And he had them for supper

And he had them for tea.

But this poor little Puffin,

He couldn't play nothin',

For he hadn't anybody

To play with at all.

So he sat on his island,

And he cried for awhile,

andHe felt very lonely,

And he felt very small.

Then along came the fishes,

And they said, "If you wishes,

You can have us for playmates,

Instead of for tea!"

So they now play together,

In all sorts of weather,

And the Puffin eats pancakes,

Like you and like me.
