Song Challenge Day 5

A song that reminds me of someone.

1. For Good - Wicked.



I know it's cheesy, but it reminds me of my crew/family. The ones that I met in high school and have been my best friends since. These girls:




2. 96,000 - In The Heights



It reminds me of my sister. It's our jam. :)

Song Challenge Day 4

A song that makes you sad.

1. Believe - Brooks and Dunn
This song makes me sad because it reminds me of someone who was very important to me. If you want to know about it, just ask.

Also...hear that organ? Yeah, that's my uncle.



2. Pretty much any song about abuse. Specifically child abuse. Like this one:

Song Challenge Day 3

A song that makes you happy.

This was not difficult at all for me. These two songs are just so fun and upbeat. Despite them being pretty innapropriate, they are just really fun. So they make me happy.

1. Teenage Dream - Glee (the Katy Perry version is way not as good).



2. Take me or Leave me - Rent (the Glee version was pretty good, but you can't get better than Idina...).

Song Challenge Day 2

Today is my least favorite song. I thought about this for awhile, but decided I couldn't pick just one.

1. Whip my Hair - Willow Smith.
Wow I hate this song. It's so obnoxious.



2. Grillz - Nelly
They used to always play this at my high school dances. I guess because it was a clean rap song and I went to a Christian school? I don't know. It drove me crazy.



3. lollipop - lil wayne
Just a horrible song.



Dang. Remember when lil wayne was good? No? let me help you. Remember this one?



that was the jam back then. fo real.

Healing is in Your Hands - Christy Nockels
Because of where I'm at in my walk with Father right now, this song has just really ministered to me. Plus, I'm a really big Christy Nockels fan.

And I'm on a Justin Bieber kick these days (our birthday is the same day), so I would say my other fave jam would be Never Let You Go - JB

Basketball

That's me in 10th grade.

As long as I can remember, basketball has been a part of my life. Up until college, I would have to say basketball more or less was my life.

It's who I was, it's what I was known for, it's what I did. I was one of those people that you could look at and tell I was a baller.

Most of my best memories are on the court or have to do with basketball.

Playing with three of the best (and best looking) boys I know.

Once I got into college and stopped playing, it was really strange for me. I still dressed like a baller, and acted like a baller. It was kind of an identity crisis. It took me a long time to realize that my identity is in Christ and it doesn't matter what people know me as. It was a sweet freedom to realize I can dress and act how I want and not how I think I should because of what I believe my "identity" to be.

beautiful.

Despite that, since being in college and not playing very often, I felt like a part of me was missing. I know that sounds ridiculously cliche, but I really did. It had been such a huge part of my life for so long, that without it, it feels like something is missing.

you wish you were as baller as us.

I say all this to tell you all that I've started reffing for a children's rec league 3 nights a week, and I am loving every minute of it. It's so fun to be around it again, even if it is in a different role than I am used to.

How long, O Lord?

How long, O Lord?

Will you forget me forever?

How long will you hide your face from me?

How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day?

How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

Consider and answer me, O Lord my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death, lest my enemy say "I have prevailed over him," lestmy foes rejoice because I am shaken.

But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.

I will sing to the Lord because he has dealt bountifully with me.

Psalm 13
