Merry Christmas, Alyssa Joy!
Since we are weird folks who live in this old blue church we've already opened our presents up. (We have always opened them on Christmas Eve. with the exception of last year, we opened them on Christmas morning)
but, already having my gifts opened up and exploring what I got.. let me take a moment to say how much I truly love this time of the year. I mean, who doesn't? (unless you are someone by the name of Tyler whom is an atheist and says he will not celebrate Christmas. Lame.)
I really do love it. I don't know if it's the way the lights glow or how everyone seems so cheerier then usual, but I love Christmas. I can't say it enough.
And with this part of the year I can listen to my Relient K album without being judged by some people.
Anyways.. I was going to tell you what I got!!
One thing that I was extreamly excited to get was... THREE BOOKS BY DONALD MILLER!!!!!
I did not get Scott Pilgrim vs. The World like I really hoped for (That was at the top of my list, and was truly what I wanted) but I am extremely grateful for what I did get. and I had to share with you. :)
So, anyways, I hope you have a wonderful Christmas. Don't eat too much food. Say hello to your family for me. and I love you.

Title goes: here.
A quote that I liked from a man by the name of Jarrid Wilson, "Dear ladies, if a guy isn’t willing to pray with you, he doesn’t deserve to be with you." - I liked that I thought it was cute but then It made me think.. How could I ever date someone, or even think of dating someone if we weren't on the same page religiously? I don't know, it was just something I've been thinking about.
Oh, and semi-related to your last post, I think my mom bought me a book by Don Miller for Christmas! She had me pick out a book that I would want when we were at the book store and I picked out "A Million Miles in A Thousand Years". She then had me leave the store so she could continue 'looking around' Let's hope that it's under my tree on Christmas morning, because I would be the happiest person ever!

Reading and Thinking
"There is something beautiful about a billion stars held steady by a God who knows what He is doing. (They hang there, the stars, like notes on a page of music, free-form verse, silent mysteries swirling in the blue like jazz.) And as I lay there, it occurred to me that God is up there somewhere. Of course, I had always known He was, but this time I felt it, I realized it, the way a person realizes they are hungry or thirsty. The knowledge of God seeped out of my brain and into my heart. I imagined Him looking down on this earth, half angry because His beloved mankind had cheated on Him, had committed adultery, and yet hopelessly in love with her, drunk with love for her."

I think my cat is reading my diary.
Bonjour! :D
Well, here is my first contribution to this wonderful little blog we've started together. *starts dancing*
Well, as of recently I have been awfully fond of the show, "Glee" mainly because I have let my bias opinion aside, and let two of my friends talk me into it, I have given the show a chance and I must say.. I am in love! I want Chris Colfer to be my best friend (Molly makes fun of me for it) so here is a cover that I actually like from the show.
I don't know why I am so fascinated with this show. Maybe because it's sort of a weekly musical, and I am a die-hard fan of musicals? I don't know.. they've just always been something I fancy.

Yay! Maggie and I have started a blog! Huzzah! *throws confetti*
This will probably be the most random blog in the entire world. Music, photography, links, strange pictures, really strong opinions on things most people don't like to discuss... I'm excited.
For some reason, there is a Shakira video in the "recommended for me" section on youtube. I find this odd. Anyway, on to what I was looking for. Nothing Better (Styrofoam Remix) by The Postal Service.
This is my favorite song at the moment. I hope you enjoy it.
