Is anybody there?

Smiley  Is anybody there?  Lol, you may be wondering if anybody is here as I have been absent for over a week.  I am not usually one who likes to write a lot (like my younger sister Bookprincess), so I don't always have a lot to say, lol.  But that is how my personality is, I am mostly layed back and quiet....although I can chat up a storm when it comes to sports, movies, books, or music, lolSmiley
I have been busy with the usual stuff of school and piano, plus reading, computer games, and listening to music.  I have also been going to my youngest sister's basketball games, they have been really exciting gamesSmiley.  Her team has only lost one game and soon the showdown will begin between all the teams....it will be great if her team wins the tournament. 

Not much else has been going on...except my older brother (Sportsfan) had a car accident on the way home from college the other night.  He was really tired from working so late at Burger King, he ended up falling asleep at the wheel.  He crashed into a ditch, the car was totally ruined, but thankfully he is alright except for a sore neck and back.  He had his seatbelt on plus the airbags went off too.  God was certainly watching out for him!

Here is something fun.....look at the picture below and see if you can find the kitty cat that is hidden in the picture :

Did you find the cat?  I found it pretty quick, lol, but then I have an eye for cats. Have a great day!

True character!

hot chocolateOk, I am officially frozen, lol!  It has been sooooo cold here lately, cold enough to snow, but snowflakes have yet to fall around here Sad sad 051 .  Yes, I love snow, I could play in it all day, lol.  So, I am still praying for snow.....not a blizzard, lol, but just enough to enjoy.

It was so exciting to see the Broncos make it to the Playoffs, Tebow is an awesome quarterback.  However, it was not meant to be as the Patriots just stomped all over themSmiley.  Still, I am very proud of Tebow's testimony and character....even in the face of playing through injuries during the game as a result of getting sacked hard by Vince Wilfork and Rob Ninkovich.  But even after such a huge defeat, Tebow showed what was really important in life.  Here is what he said after the game:  

"It still wasn't a bad day," Tebow said after the game. "It still was a good day, because I got to spend some time before the game with Zack McLeod [a 20-year-old Cambridge native who suffered a traumatic brain injury playing football] and make him smile, and overall when you get to do that, it's still a positive day. Sometimes that's hard to see, but it depends what lens you're looking through. I choose to look through those lenses, and I got to make a kid's day, that's more important than winning the game. So, I am proud of that."   

What a great testimony!Smiley  Giving of his time to others is way more important than a football game, a true testament of his Christian character.  And, I think, this is how it should be in our lives as Christians.....giving to others!

Back to regular programming!

After a nice Christmas break I am finally back to my usual program of schoolwork, piano lessons, and piano practice.  For Christmas, I got a California Angels shirt with Pujols name on it, along with a World Series video, perfume/shower gel from my brother, a suncatcher to paint, piano music of "Lord of the Rings" movies, and assorted candy and Trident gum.  Another blessing I got for Christmas is that I didn't get sick at all Smiley, yay!  The past two Christmases I had gotten sick with the cold and the flu, so it was great to be sick-free this time and get to enjoy Christmas.  Schoolwork has been alright, Geometry looks like it will be easier on my brain than Algebra, lol.  Biology is better for now, the Pace I am in right now is on plants....the previous Pace was about tapeworms and parasites, ick Smiley!  Piano is going to be even more fun since I got a piano book that has music from the "Lord of the Rings" movies.  It is an easier version of the music and I have been able play some of it already.  I love it!Smiley

That's it for now, time to run to the library!
