Busy, Busy, Busy

Wow...I'm tired just thinking of the busy week i've had...and what's yet to come =P

I've been helpin out at a VBS this week, I'm teaching in the Pre-k class which contains 16-18 kids...with only me and my friend...lol I'm helpin again tommorow, but then Friday....is a very full day, I'm going to a funeral at ten, then i have an appointment for Dual-credit enrollment at two, and then we have to take my nannie shopping. Then Saturday, I have a wedding [i'm an assistant photographer] so that's pretty much a whole day thing. THEN Sunday i have to pack cause Monday morning I'm leaving for children's camp [once again helping photographer, which also on tuesday were doing a puppet show]

so yeah...pretty busy week up ahead =/ but i'm excited [you can see the excitement through my drooping eyes...=P]

Practicing

Wow...

My knees hurt...lol. We had puppet practice tonight...our LAST dress rehersal...to tell you the truth, i'm kinda nervous...I mean why in the world should i be nervous...were just performing in front of around 400 3rd-6th grade kids...and all their leaders...and all the camp leaders...i mean why in the world should i be nervous =/ lol

Yeah...so the reason my knees hurt is because i have to be on my knees with a puppets legs strapped to my knees and walk around...yeah and we've been practicing on carpet...and were going to be performing on a stage..most likely wooden...

ok I think i'm done complaining

I really am excitied though...I love my Polka Dot skit...even if i look DORKY [*ahem* Kristen *ahem*]

Polka Dot

Ok so here's some pics of me in my Polka Dot costume [read this post]

Don't laugh.....lol

We got a new puppy!

He's a miniature dachshund, and i think were sticking with the name Goliath [isn't it perfect? =P ]

Here's a pic of him by our remote just to show how small he is>>

Here's another pic of him with my little bro>>>

YAY!

I just got the THEA results and....I PASSED!!! ALL OF IT!!! I'm so excited! lol

In the Reading portion I scored 286 and the minimum was 230

In the Math section I scored 246 and the minimun score was 230

and in the Writing section i scored 220 and the minimun score was 220 [so i just got by on that one but at least I passed!! ;)

YAY! =P

THEA

I just realized I never posted about the THEA! Well i haven't gotten my test results yet, [I'm hoping that it will come today seeing as it's three days past the two week mark] but if you were praying for me while i was taking the test, I just want to say thank you! I was worried about being overwhelmed and that i wont "be shaking so much that I can't hold my pencil =P". Well thanks to the many prayers others and myself had prayed, I felt like i had done it a thousand times before! I wasn't in the least bit nervous, i felt very confident, and if i shook it was just from the cold room =P! If i didn't know an answer usually i would get overwhelmed and i would feel stupid, but instead of allowing those feelings to seep in, I prayed for God to show me the answer, because he knows the answer. It was amazing!


Thanks again to all who prayed,



I think I'm gonna go check the mail now...hopefully my results are in there =P

Guitar

As i type i realize that my fingers are sore from pressing against guitar strings. I just recently started playing guitar in the newly created worship band at church, and every time i play or practice, i ask myself the same question: How long will it take for my fingers to grow calluses so that i can play guitar with ease?!?! I mean I got the darn thing at Christmas! =P But I suppose it's just another test against my patience, which is very short i might add.
Although I'm not really complaining because i love taking part in the worship!

A Poem

I was looking through some of my old prayer jounal's the other day, and i found this poem that i had wrote many years ago. I thought it was interesting so i thought i'd share :o)

My Lord is Amazing

He is always true

He always does the best thing

For me and for you

Though we may not know it

He is always there

Doing the best things

Because he really cares

Christmas

I hope you all had a great Christmas! I know I did! My Brother and Sister in law came to visit the week before, which was a blast! At times I even dreaded Christmas' coming, because it meant that they would no longer be here =P .
I had a clothes and accessories Christmas [which was greatly needed], except for one present, which was a new puppet [Pictures coming soon]. I am still searching for a name and personality for her, but when it is decided she will be used often in my churches’ Children’s Church Ministry [Check out it’s newly created blog here! Which happens to be created by my mom =P]. The ministry is called “King’s Kids” and we who volunteer to help are called “Kings Krew”. Before now, I had only one puppet to call my own[picture below], who is none other than Princess Annie Daynow [get it? =P] . Princess Annie is a self-absorbed, Princess of the King, who rarely ever understands the lessons we learn in King’s Kids.

If an Idea for a name or personality comes to you when you see my new puppet’s picture, please share! =P

First Post!

Hi my name is Samantha, I recently moved here to blogger.com.....i cant think of any thing else to say right now lol.....I will post again soon! : )

Piano Guild

Last Tuesday I went to a Piano Guild. It was my first time so I really didn’t know what it was like. Well what happens is you go into this concert hall and play on this huge Steinway grand piano (that was fun) in front of a judge. While you are playing she scores you on your dynamics (how loud and soft you play) your speed etc.
You can get A's and C's, C's are good A's are bad. C stands for special Commendation and A stands for needs Attention. Before I went in I got really nervous, so much so that I was shaking, well I just kept praying for calmness and I had to pray again after each song I played. I got 24 Cs and 1 A!
I’m really thankful to God for giving me the calmness to get through it and actually not doing horribly. So I’m pretty excited on how I did. My only A was that I needed to end the song with more enthusiasm.
I had a lot of fun and I’m glad I went even though I really didn’t want to in the beginning.

What Cookie Are You?

Last Saturday I went to a thing at our church for women called Women of Exellence, this year we also had a Girls of Exellence. It was really fun! One of the things we talked about was- What kind of cookie are you?

Spiced Oatmeal ~ Good and wholesome at first glance but with hidden rebellion

Chocolate Chip ~ Caring and full of mercy but sometimes you find yourself with a mess on your hands

'Nilla Wafer ~ It's simple, you become what ever the person you are with at the time wants you to be

Oreo ~ You may look dark and hard on the outside but you are really hiding a softness and sweetness inside

Peanut Butter ~ You're totally nuts! If you are funny enough, no one can see that you are crying inside

Sugar ~ Sure at times your broken a strange shape or color but your willing to change as God shows you what He wants you to be


Which Cookie are you (be honest)? Are you only one of these cookies or a Variety Pack?
