Life and its Curveballs.

           I should be doing homework. But instead, I couldn't drag myself to do it, so instead I'm here, writing my feelings. Mounting them onto the transparent wall of the internet. So, my life? Well, this year has thrown me many curve-balls. I think I have things figured out. I think the ball is right about to head right over home plate, I swing at it.... and miss. The ball curves and hits me unexpectedly. I just don't understand my feelings anymore. Things seem to change like the wind. And now my life has become a bit more exciting and confusing. Now, I'm not complaining, because I always wanted excitement, but life becomes a bit twistier than you expect sometimes. We can't see what's coming. But there is One who does.
          You see, in all my confusion and blind walks into life, I should have sought God for the answers. He's the only one who knows which way the balls curve and what new excitement our life will hold. So as I search and senselessly try to figure things out, God has it all in control, I only need to call on him and seek Him for the answers. He won't reveal the whole picture, but just enough to trust Him and follow His commands. In fact sometimes He leads us with nothing else to go on except the faith we have in Him. Sometimes, its just a matter of trust and obedience. Denying our wants and earthly wisdom and accepting everything he has called us to do.

16.

              1 month and 17 days. Then I turn 17. As weird as it may sound, I'm kinda sad to be another year older. When I was 6 years old I dreamed of the day I'd turn 16, thinking I'd have a cat, a car, and a boyfriend. I have none of these. And I'm happy. Instead I have 2 rabbits, a permit, and some really amazing friends. My 16th year was not as good as I thought it would be, It was better. I experienced a mission trip to Haiti, made more friends, got more invovled in church outreaches, and now, several weeks before my 17th birthday I will be heading out to another mission trip, this time in Mexico. So 16. Wasn't so bad. In fact, I don't ever want to leave this age, but before I fully commit to this year and longing to be 16 forever, I need to remember 17 could be even better. So 17, soon we'll meet, and when we do, promise me you'll be as good to me as 16 was. 

Where has class gone?

          Remember years ago when women had class. When they help their head high with the respect of many. When they had beautiful and modest style and believed in goodness. When ladies had poise and elegance. They said profound words and held their own, not a care of if the world thought ill of them. One of these ladies I believe is Audrey Hepburn. In fact, she is the reason I adore my middle name Audrey. She had class. She had deep thoughts and witty sayings, as she said thinks like,

“I believe in pink.

I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. 

I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. 

I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. 

I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. 

I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.” 

               She was the definition of class from "Breakfast at Tiffany's" to "Roman Holiday" her acting career made her famous and her outlook on life... even more so. I wish the world still had some Audreys in it. Modern-day Cinderellas.

A song for everything?

Some say she's got a song for everything... so maybe she does.... Wish I could be this enchanted...

Bucket List - Climb a Water Tower

             Yes, the idea of climbing a water tower has always excited me. I'm sure I'm not the only one here who feels this way. I mean, imagine climbing up, up, up and way into the sparkling blue. The victory you feel when you've reached the top and you can see the entire countryside from the peak of the tower. The exhilaration that pumps through your veins when you've realized that you made it. Now, I've never experienced this, but it just sounds so riveting. Of course, this is against the law unless you know the owner of the water tower. So basically, I either have to become besties with a water tower owner or become a criminal in order to complete my bucket list. O well, one can dream...

Vintage Movies

                              


                          Recently I've been trying to watch some of the more classic older movies. I started with "An Affair to Remember" with Cary Grant. Amazing movie. Could bring you to tears. This movie...(sigh)... was amazing... honestly probably better than any movie a girl could ever see. Next I watched "Roman Holiday" with Audrey Hepburn. I believe this was one of the first movies she had debuted in. The movie was actually filmed in Rome... there's no green screen in this one. Its absolutely darling, although I wasn't as fond of the ending of this movie... oh its happy alright, just not as settling as I thought it would be. Lastly, this weekend I experienced the one, the only... "Breakfast at Tiffany's" with Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard. It leaves me at a loss for words... amazing ending, wonderful actors... just moving... trailer is below.
