Hey everyone! So...If you haven't noticed, today's my birthday. I turned 17! Man I feel old....... Anyway, I thought that I'd share 17 things that I learned while I was 16.
1. God is good! He's forgiving, loving, and strong, when you can't be. He's amazing, and I only hope that I can get closer to him this year.
2. I have some pretty amazing friends. I may be biased, but I'm dead sure that I'm friends with some of the best people in the world.
3. Don't ever give up on school. Frankly, I don't enjoy school, but I'm coming to realize how important it is to push through and keep trying.
4. Relient K will just keep getting better. At first, I listened to a couple songs from Relient K's newest CD, Air for Free, and I thought 'Meh. I like their old stuff better.' Well, now I have new found love and respect for the current Relient K. Keep it up Matt and Matt!
5. The new(ish) live action/CGI Jungle Book is actually pretty good. It wasn't exactly the same, and that's okay! It's a new take on an old classic that I grew up with.
6. Anxiety can be controlled. It takes a lot of hard work and prayer, but with God, nothing is impossibly. It reminds me of my favorite verse, 2 Corinthians 12: 9-10.
7. I could actually make a cd of my music! It blows my mind that I could record my music and that people would want to listen to it. Woooooooooaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh.....
8. Blimey Cow is genius. They have some pretty good points, sarcasm, and humor. If you haven't checked them out, please do.
9. Peanut butter really isn't so bad.
10. Le Miz isn't really that bad. (but marius is)hahahah...don't kill me gracie...
11. The world won't implode if you don't have a significant other. As Jordan Taylor said, If you aren't happy alone, then being in a relationship won't fix that.
12. The future isn't as scary as it seems. The future will still have God, and he's all I'll ever need. God's got his plan, y'all. Just relax and it let go. (LET IT GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooo no? okay then...)
13. Disney's probably using mind control because the music IS TOO CATCHY.
14. My family ROCKS. Yes, we can get on eachother's nerves, but we all need each other, and I love them a lot.
15. You are allowed to say how you feel. Yes, I'm an INFJ and I don't really like to talk about my problems or feelings, but it's unhealthy to keep everything inside forever.
16. Extroverts aren't as scary as I thought. They might be loud sometimes, and overwhelm you, but they're still human. I've found that I'm kind of liking being around louder people because I get to talk less and listen to them. (haha) All joking aside, Extroverts can be wonderful leaders and speak up for us poor introverts. They're awesome. We need a diversity of people in this world. I'm going to go hug my extroverted Dad now...
17. This blog is a God-send. It gives me a way do something meaningful, even if it's just a makeup tutorial. I really enjoy blogging, and I enjoy it even more when I look at the stats and realize that over 300 people in Russia have looked at our blog. People in America, Russia, China, France and the United Kingdoms and many more have peeked into our lives. That's pretty cool.
Thanks for reading! God bless.
