MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ONE AND ALL!

~Alas, the Christmas mime I directed is over. Everyone did an excellent job. I got to watch it on a video tape later ,(thanks to Mr.Uveges :)) it looked like everyone just enjoyed finally performing. After weeks of practice and a few grey hairs, I am happy to say that "The Virgin's Lullaby" Mime is complete.

Well, as I sit here at the computer I am currently voiceless. Because my vocal cords aren't working because of an extreme sore throat, blogger will be my voice for today. As I sit on the couch sucking on a cough drop, I was thinking of how blessed I am. This past Saturday, we had a Christmas Party at my house and this thought was constantly on my mind. The party was with our groups of friends, which we call "FFJ" which stand for Families for Jesus. This group of people went to our old church with us way back when. We get together around once a month and have so much fun. Every Christmas part we all gather around and sing the 12 days of Christmas.I love being able to look around and watch everyone sing the day they have been assinged. By far, the cutest is little Emma Uveges and Sarah Washburne sing two turtle doves.....so cute :). Also, God has so greatly blessed me with a church family, and friends. This Sunday after youth group, a bunch of us kids went to Wendy's. Although many of them couldn't tell , I had a lot of fun. I was merely exahausted after mime practice. As I sat htere watching my buds ingesting not so healthy food, I was so thankful for the way my youth group has bonded. At one time, we all were so disconnected. The unity that we have established over the past year is remarkable, and only by the grace of God. :) That's all for today's random musings of a sore throated thankful teenager. (haha...i just used an alliteration!! 3t's!)

Well, blogger and I kn=ind of got a long. You have to click on the little bars on the top of the post to see the pictures. Other than that, I AM ON CHRISTMAS BREAK!! Wow, am i ever excited that it is here. I could really use a break. I really like being able to take a deep breath and say "wow, I don't have homework!" You have no idea how exciting that is.

Okay, I'm tyring to post two picture from the net. This all depends if blogger likes me today! If it works these pictures are from BNYC this summer. The one is of me on the stage signing, and the other is some of my OBers who did a mime from one of the late night sessions. Man, did I feel the pressure when I signed on stage, fhew!

WOW! It's been a crazy week. I feel like I have barely kept my head above water. With next week being the last week before x-mas break, teachers are really cranking through lots of material. This week had been really challenging for me, I have been stuck in a happy/ frustrated mood. At times I'm really aggrevaited in school, and how hard I push myself. But, then people see me frustrated and that hurts how I am showing Christ to them. I'm really trying to keep a joyful attitude, even when I want to pull my hair out. Just when I had reached my highest level of annoyance with chemistry, I read this passage in my devotional book called: Being a girl who Leads. I reallly needed to read this , especially this week:
"You are God's Masterpeice He made you. He knows why He made you, and in what conditions you will oprate best. He knows what colors to splash at the canvas of your life.He has your best interest at heart, and He knows just where to draw the lines and boundaries for you to color in the details of your life"
Once again, God said...chill BECKY! I'm in control, I know where I'm going to take you, jsut hold my hand and walk beside me.
On a different note, MY OBERS came into town last weekend. Sarah, Amy, and I did a special music song for church. It went really well. I love those kids so much! They are such a breath of fresh air to me. One of my favorite times of the weekend was when Sarah, Amy, Laura, and I just sat in my room and talked about the summer. Good memories with my forever friends :)
