Life isn't about keeping score.
It's not about how many friends you have.
Or what group you hang out with.
It's not about if you have plans this weekend
or if you're spending it alone.
It's not about who you're going out with,
or how many people you've gone out with.
It's not about how many people you kissed,
how far you've gone,
or if you've kissed no one at all.
It isn't about where you live & go to school.
About how beautiful or ugly you are,
how others see you.
It doesn't matter what clothes you wear,
the purses you own, the make-up.
It doesn't matter what kind of music you listen to,
or if your hair is black, red, brown or blonde.
It doesn't matter how light or dark your skin is.
It's not about what grades you get,
how smart you are,
how smart other people think you are,
or even how smart a standardized test says you are.
It's not about how good or bad you are at "your sport".
It's not about trying to represent our whole being,
our whole life on the internet or a piece of paper.
It's not about getting accepted.
Life is about who you love and who you hurt,
it's about who you make happy or un-happy, on purpose.
It's about how you see yourself.
It's about keeping or betraying trust.
It's about getting and giving second chances.
It's about the things you say and the things you mean,
everything inspiring and everything hurtful.
What your judgments are and why,
and who your judgments are spread to.
It's about anger, jealousy, fear, ignorance, and revenge.
It's about starting rumors and believing gossip.
It's about having love in your life and being able to admit it.
It's about sharing how you feel and why but mostly...
It's about using your life to touch another's
in such a way that could have NEVER happened without you.

Fill this out about your SENIOR year of high school! The longer ago it was, the more fun the answers will be.

1. Who was your best friend(s)?
Becca, Val, Sarah W, Wes, JT, Casey, Paul, Ty, Andrew, Jason, Good Friend, Ali, Bill, Rach, Maria

2. Did you fake being sick to get out of school?
maybe a couple times...

3. What kind of car did you drive?
same one I have now. Silver mazda protege

4. It's Friday night, where were you?
hmm, football games in the fall, Bill's attic, my porch, or andrew's basement

5. Were you a party animal?
depends on what you consider partying. I had the time of my life, hanging out with the biggest group of friends ever, while staying sober the whole time.

6. Were you considered a flirt?
no, I was with J.T.

7. Ever skip school?
probably once or twice

8. Favorite memory?
the punks vs. preps!!!! haha man those were the days. and all the shows at billy's, new years eve at my house, definitely the sports, volleyball and softball, physics class (learning through the tv, or lack thereof), the tornado experience at prom, and even though it wasnt my senior year, I have to throw in my surprise sweet 16 party.

9. Did you get suspended/expelled?
nope

10. Can you sing the fight song?
yes, of coarse

11. Who was your Favorite teacher?
thats a tough one. At the time, probably ms. lane, because she helped me through a lot
However, now that I look back, I realize what great teacher's senora, and mr. greenstein were.

12. What was your favorite class?
i'll have to go with either library free period (a.k.a. napping on the leather couches with paul and sarah) or possibly physics ("freezing" through the tv)

13. What was your school's full name?
Ironton High School

14. School mascot?
Ironton Fighting Tigers

15. Did you go to prom?
yes, had a blast =)

16. If you could go back and do it all over again...would you?
yes, it was the time of my life. I'm not gonna lie, I miss those days. however, I would handle some things differently

17. What do you remember most about graduation?
sitting on the field in the drizzling rain for a couple hours, and by the time it was over, i was soaking wet. and the speeches. I'll never forget the speeches of my classmates.

18. Who was your High school sweetheart?
J.T. Jenkins

19. Where were you on senior skip day?
I think at bill's? with casey maybe? dont ask why she was missing school, when she was only a sophmore. I cant remember for sure.... I might have even been a nerd and gone to school for extra credit points? i have no idea...

20. Did you have a job your Senior year?
no, I was a slacker

21. Where did you go most often for lunch?
lunch table in the cafeteria, with becca, and our huge box of giovanni's cheesesticks

22. Have you gained weight since then?
yes, obviously. we wont go there

23. What did you do after graduation?
went back to my house with my family and opened some gifts, then went to alexis's

24. When did you graduate?
2003

25. Who was your Senior prom date?
Clay Price

26. Are you going to to your 10 year class reunion?
Planning on it...

27. Who was your home room teacher?
Mrs. Handley

28. Who will repost this after you?
who knows, but if it's up to xanga users, i'm pretty sure that J.T., Kelsey, and I are the only ones who still use it. so i'm gonna say maybe Kelsey

29. If you could narrow it down, what would you say is the one thing you learned in high school?
oh my, where do I even start. I learned a very important lesson about relationships. that was more of a gradual learning process though. The biggest thing that stands out from my senior year is to just be yourself, and that you can have honest, genuine fun without alcohol. Something i'm quite proud of. Don't be afraid to stay true to yourself, your true friends will stick by your side.

Why is it so hard for me to be happy?

I don't understand it. I am so blessed. and then I go through life being so stressed out and moody that I'm always in a bad mood. This really bothers me. I mean, look at all God has done for me, and I cant manage a good mood half the time? What's wrong with me? Maybe I dont really have everything God has to offer inside of me? That's what it all begins to make me think....

I guess I have a lot to work on.  I need some self-help of some sort. I mean, I think i'm my own person, and I am myself...but maybe I need to become "more of myself", like Oprah today.  Or at least spend some time honestly evaluating myself...instead of taking my frustrations out on other people. Instead of just watching Oprah religiously, I guess its about time that I put some of the information I absorb through that show to use...

 

I don't know. Pray for me, b/c right now, I dont know when it's going to get better, or how to even make it better?

MY SISTER WAS SAVED TODAY!!!!!

I'm so happy for her, I just hope that she follows up in baptism and that she has had a wonderful day ( I remember how great it felt when I got saved =)

I've been wanting this for awhile now, and i'm so glad that she finally came to that decision on her own!!

It's time for another update. but a quick one. I'm feeling sick to my stomach at the moment.  Its going to be a long week. Stressed about classes, and registration for classes in the spring. probably won't graduate when I had hoped. It's gonna be cutting it so close =( Oh well, what can I do, right? I'm trying my best. I miss my friends. well, one in particular, I dont know what happened? I hate not talking to you all the time.. We have so much fun together and have so much in common.  I feel like you're mad at me? Is that crazy to think? probably. I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU VERY MUCH! cant wait for break. its' almost within reach. might go back to work at cvs over christmas break. not sure yet. it would be somewhat nice. dont want it to control my life though. I wish he would just give me a little chair to sit at by the photo lab, and I wouldn't have to do any work unless there were pictures to be developed! that'd be the life =) I dont know what I would do w/o God in my life.  and I need his guidance more than ever right now.  I dont know what direction to take in life.  I guess i'm just gonna keep hanging on and hope for the best. Pray for me.

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS ALI PAYNE =) I LOVE YOU!!!!
