Time goes by...

Every morning when I wake up and dread my training. "Oh shucks I'm so tired." But when I get out there and do my stuff, I find so much joy in it. Even though it's painful to work hard and push myself, I just love how it pays off. Training, training, and more training. That's my life right now.

I've done two meets since my last post. One in Clovis and the other in San Jose. Cloves was ok. Wasn't the best meet cause I sprained my ankle that Friday(Feb 9). I ended up doing all four events but fell twice on beam and ended up with an all around score of 33.25. Placed 4th on Bars even with some technical difficulties, and 6th AA.

San Jose(Feb 24) went great. I was so much more mentally physically and spiritually prepared for it. the meet was called the Spirit of the Flame Challenge and is a very popular meet in the US. There were gyms from all ofer the country. It actually ended up being my best competitive performance:
Bars- 9.2;) tied for second
Beam- 8.8 I stayed on! I've made lots of great improvements on this event since the beginning of season.
Floor- 8.875 I was stoked about this routine cause of the improvements I've made;)
Vault- 8.475 I did a front handspring vault which had a 9.0 start value. I'm hoping to compete my Tsukahara next weekend.
I placed 6th All Around with a 35.35;)

My next meet is in Mtn View on March 4.

School is going good. Pretty much just doing math right now. It's fascinating as usual. I've been doing a lot of Graphing and Trig. Doubt the world cares, but it's fun;) I really should do some more organized writing, but we really don't have a plan for assignments yet.

Nature is wonderful. The sky is pretty clear right now but it rained hard and hailed last night. Everything's green, except the trees which are bare, And there are buds in the garden, and I really want to fantasize like I do... I feel like once the vineyards get leaves I want to go roam in the fields and read and imagine if there was anyway God could make the world more beautiful.

time goes by...

I'm just sitting here...

Staring at the key board trying to think of how to say this. umm...

You know Marvin Martian?
"I am very, VERY angry" you know... that Marvin martian
I like him very, VERY much


anyway That was very, VERY random.
So do you know 1 Peter 1:17? well then look it up! haha

"Since you call on a Father who judges each man's work impartially live your lives as strangers here in reverent fear."
Just thought I'd mention that.

If your wondering what relevence the Martian and the verse have, I would be wondering too. I'm mentioning this cause I think it has a strong message. I don't know what persective your coming from and I don't know if I'm gonna offend anyone. I'm just saying this the way I see it.

Honestly the person I am is so far from the person I wish to be that I have no clue where I'm going or how I'm gonna get there. All I'm allowed to know is my final destination. My only job is to keep my eyes intently on that place, so that I'm forced to place the journey in God's hands.
"Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self- controlled; set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed." 1 Peter 1:13
Our inheritance is in Heaven and that's the Living Hope. That's what God calls us to keep our eyes on.

I understand that the word Holy means "set apart" and when God says "Be Holy because I am Holy" It means be set apart from the rest of the world; be alien. When we go on this journey we must be made holy by the precious blood of Christ and then the Father would be more than happy to take our lives in his hands. Amen to that;)

Oh how I love Marvin Martian. We have so much in common:)

Wow it's helped so much to just write all this down. Thank you for bearing with me. Plus I hope you thought it was cool too.

p.s. looney tunes rocks

I was thinking...

I was a reading through Colleen's blog(Ardamar) and I noticed that every post explained herself so openly. I thought of all the stuff I've posted about events in my life, and I wondered if they were really that interesting to people. Sure people may say so, but do they really want to come everyday to see my blog and read my "open" thoughts, like I love to do with Ardamar? I didn't really think so. From now on, I'm gonna write about who I am, in my head and in my heart. maybe it will be just a little more exciting to people. Also it will help me think about stuff to write about, because not much goes on in life, compared to what goes on in my head and heart. My Lord Jesus will completely contribute to this also. So when you get the chance, thank him too.

Clouds for Colleen:)
