1.1.11

Last night was awesome!

Just goes to show you that you do NOT have to drink and do bad stuff to have a good time.

I have the best friends in the entire world and I want them to know it!!!!! I am so glad that my parents decided to show up. I really had a great time last night at Karasyn's playing games and such with everyone. I love the Inglett and Lindsey families! They are my favorite people in the world! (Besides my own family, but seriously, sometimes I would claim them over my own family lol) I just don't know where my life would be without them. I am so glad that I started going to Broadway. I mean, I think Karasyn and I would still be good friends, but I really don't know where  I would be right now if I hadn't started going to Broadway. I mean, there just isn't anything for my at Antioch anymore and although I love my Antioch family, I have to go somewhere that is filling me spiritually, right? I believe that I have grown a whole lot since I started at Broadway. Not to mention the great people there.


Back to my friends, though. Karasyn is my best friend in the whole wide world and I don't think I could live without her. That sounds kind of creepy doesn't it lol Well, it's not. I can talk to her about anything and we always have a TON of fun. Now, I don't want to exclude my other friends, because they are extremely important to me as well and I don't want to make it look like I only have one friend lol

I have amazing friends and they are all awesome!! You just sometimes get closer to others. There is a song that comes to my mind. For Good from the musical, Wicked. Here are the lyrics:

(Glinda) I've heard it said


That people come into our lives for a reason

Bringing something we must learn

And we are led

To those who help us most to grow

If we let them

And we help them in return

Well, I don't know if I believe that's true

But I know I'm who I am today

Because I knew you



Like a comet pulled from orbit

As it passes a sun

Like a stream that meets a boulder

Halfway through the wood

Who can say if I've been changed for the better?

But because I knew you

I have been changed for good



(Elphaba) It well may be

That we will never meet again

In this lifetime

So let me say before we part

So much of me

Is made of what I learned from you

You'll be with me

Like a handprint on my heart

And now whatever way our stories end

I know you have re-written mine

By being my friend...



Like a ship blown from its mooring

By a wind off the sea

Like a seed dropped by a skybird

In a distant wood

Who can say if I've been changed for the better?

But because I knew you



(Glinda) Because I knew you



(Both) I have been changed for good



(Elphaba) And just to clear the air

I ask forgiveness

For the thing I've done you blame me for



(Glinda) But then, I guess we know

There's blame to share



(Both) And none of it seems to matter anymore



(Glinda) Like a comet pulled from orbit

As it passes a sun

Like a stream that meets a boulder

Halfway through the wood



(Elphaba) Like a ship blown from its mooring

By a wind off the sea

Like a seed dropped by a bird in the wood



(Both) Who can say if I've been

Changed for the better?

I do believe I have been

Changed for the better



(Glinda) And because I knew you...



(Elphaba) Because I knew you...



(Both) Because I knew you...

I have been changed for good.



It is like the sweetest song of friendship and I love it! I can't believe we disliked each other so much in elementary school lol but I am so thankful for our friendship and I am so happy for you and Tyler!!! You guys are awesome and I can't wait to share with someone someday what you two have :)

For now, though, I am content finding my relationship with God and loving where I am, with great friends and family to back me up!

Well, I just thought I would bring in the new year by talking about the things I am thankful for. :)
Thank you everyone for making 2010 one of the best years and I pray 2011 will be just as good!!!
