Dance :: 15th

Another goal for today, Wednesday, the 15th: learn a dance today.  I'm going to learn one off a DVD, Hip Hop Abs.  I need to have a routine so I can ponder whether I'm going to audition for dance or not.  I should go now.  But, list for today:
--spend sometime at Assisted Living.
--finish memorizing monologue
--spend 30 min. amtconline
--learn HipHop routine
--church tonight at 7!
--piano lesson 8:45pm!



--maybe Jazzercise today?  hmmm.

In all things, I need help to love the Lord my God, with all of my heart, all of my soul, and all of my mind.  I put on my salvation, again, this morning.  Jesus Christ was crucified for me, to be holy, set apart.  

1 Corinthians 1:2 :: 
He made you holy by means of Christ Jesus, just as he did all Christians everywhere--whoever calls upon the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and theirs.

New Goal : : AMTC

Goals for this evening:
meh.
ok, I got one: Get TV show theme song out of my head.

But no, really, I have important news to solidify!  Really important news, actually.
I signed my name to pay and train with Actors, Models, & Talent for Christ, known as AMTC.  I want to keep this post brief, getting to the points I want to make.

--This used to be an aspiring baking blog.  It has now morphed into a Goal Blog.  For example, this past summer I completed my goal of keeping/attempting a baking blog for that three month duration.

--Now, I would like to/must post my daily deeds as well as goals for AMTC.  For example, today I:
           --Worked on memorizing a monologue (Person 2, "Send Me")
           --Printed out lyrics to a Alison Krauss song, The Lucky One
           --Wrote and submitted a little letter to friend, Beth
           --Dabbled on my account, amtconline.org....whew, doggie, there is much to read
                                                                                                 and go through
                                                                                  and know and memorize and practice. 
                                                                                              Whewww, doggies!
--Post goals yet to come/On-going goals:
           --Memorize one new monologue a week.  Seriously.  Inanimate computer,
                          please hold me accountable to this.
           --Go on amtconline.org every day.  Post daily deeds on this blog site.

I'll keep you posted.  Haha-get it?  'Night.  Oh and I'm changing my name to Tyler, because that's what the "aged" people at the Assisted Living home think my name is.  I have a cousin named Tyler.  Let's just go for it.  My name is, Ty.

You is kind, you is smart, you is important.

So I've kind of developed an angst toward movies:

angst/aNG(k)st/

Noun:

A feeling of deep anxiety or dread, typically an unfocused one about the human condition or the state of the world in general. A feeling of persistent worry about something trivial.

I believe this is an accurate description of the emotion I feel towards movies.  If I do watch them and am not worrying about annoying my fellow watchees, I can't help but yell at, talk to, cry for, etc. the characters in the movie.  I sometimes get so wrapped up in them, that it feels like my heart is ripped cut into strips with scissors...slowly.  Seriously (kind of-that's a HUGE ouch). 
My parents are familiar with my suspicion of movies.  I came home one day to the advice of them telling me, "Oh Ky, I think you're really going to like this movie!  I really think you are going to like it."  It was the movie, Tristin and Isolde.  Heart...breaker.  Oh my lanta, at several points the actions of the characters could have been adjusted so so much awfulness didn't have to happen!!  But no.  Tristin and Isolde broke my heart with its story.
It may have been several months later when my parents brought me their line again.  "Kyla, this is a movie you'll like.  You'll like this one!"  They may have even thrown in the line, "Trust me."  So I stumbled into the family room.  This movie was, Sommersby.  Heart...breaker.
Anyways, I decided that, well, I actually do like some movies.  And even though my heart painfully shatters when I watch movies like Tristin and Isolde or Sommersby, these are movies I truly enjoy.  Ha!  Now I've also recently watched the movies, Fried Green Tomatoes and The Help.  And both of these are great movies, too!  Maybe I kind of like it when my heart gets squished around.  And Mae Mobley, the little girl in The Help, is a button!  (Funny expression, isn't it?)

 

So, anywho, these are my "2 cents" regarding movies.  My computer screen looks like a wreck right now.  Many many windows up because I'm trying to make everything a priority, I suppose.  Hope to write again soon.  :-) 
Sincerely,
Miss Rae

With the Intention of Coming Back

Hey!
I shouldn't write extensively here.  One could argue I shouldn't be writing on here at all as just a computer window away are two unfinished papers.  However, I wanted to document, perhaps follow the distraction that I may be posting blogs more frequently in the upcoming months.

Remember how I had this perhaps over-dramatically dilemma about going back to University this Fall?  Well, with the Good Lord's help, I will succeed and finish these classes I am enrolled in and with the grace and love shown by my parents, I will not be enrolled in any classes for next semester.  Anyone else feel like flying?...and just to acknowledge more reactions than flying- anyone else ponder the parable of "The Prodigal Son"?  You know, I don't even know what the word, prodigal, means, but- hey now, I need to get back to work...

I just wanted to make a post because I really haven't in a couple months.  These past couple of months have been a fascinating and blessing-filled kind of crazy!  I have lived with eight other beautiful, interesting, funny, unique, and wonderful women this semester!!  Ha ha-they're nuts!  But--next semester, with God's help, will be a wonderful, awakening kind of semester not enrolled in college.  I think partaking in blog posts will be helpful for this journey.  We shall see.  (I'll have a stocked kitchen again--yippee!)

Okay, pray for the development and flow for my papers and school work!  :-)  Thanks!!!
Sincerely,
Miss Rae
