About Me

My life is not my own, for I belong to Christ.

It is because of God's grace and for His glory that I "live and move and have my being."

I am currently back in Indiana, studying English Education at Purdue University, far from the home I've come to know and love in Victoria, Australia

My family means the world to me.

Living in America and loving in Australia, I am blessed indeed. Complete Profile

      By the way, if you think of it, pray for him. His name is Ryan. I guess just pray that God would continue to work in his heart and bring him into contact with other Christian people. I know that he must be searching for something otherwise, he wouldn't have chose to come or choose to sit with Katie and her Christian friends at lunch at school.

      Ok, so I did get a chance to post again. I just got back from youth group a while ago. There was a guy there, actually and Athiest, who goes to school with Katie Bussell. He came to 'debate with Rebekah Ray', but ended up being challenged by Rebekah, Isaac, Kevin Mouser, and one or two comments from Mrs. Mouser. I didn't get involved, but I did sit and listen. It was very interesting, actually. I won't post what all was said, but if you really want to know you can ask me. I thought it was really good that he came cuz, for me at least, I don't realy think that much about those kind of people and what I would say to them if I got the chance to. For the most part, I am around Christians 24/7! But, I hope sometime I do get the oppertunity to talk/debate with someone like that.

My dad goes, "Although, in Benjamin's case, when it fell off, it took his brain with it." Hehehehehe...I thought it was funny! It was prolly just cuz I was just really hyper and tired though. MY LEGS HURT!!!!! (And yes, anyone I see in the next week, I'm gona be saying that the whole time!!! Although, that will prolly only be like my family...and maybe Ellen! :))

      Jocelyn, Stacie, and Gabby also wore skirts (we didn't ALL plan it! Me and Jocey did and then Gabby and Stacie did!) If you guys knew Stacie, you would know that she is NEVER cought in a skirt OR heels! So, Mr. Melvin (our principal) pulled me aside at lunch and was just like, "What is the ocassion of all the 8th grade s dressing so nicely?" And I was just like, "Uhh.....me and Jocey decided to and then we walked in and Gabby adn Stacie were in skirts and heels, too!" So he goes, "Well you all look very beautiful!" I was like, "Thank you! Now please tell that to my feet!" And in history I asked if we could all take off our shoes and Mr. Gale was a meanie and said no! :( PAIN!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not usually like this! I didn't get to go home and change!" And after running yesterday, on TOP of the heels, my legs hurt soooooooooo badly!!!!

      An example of why you should ALWAYS supervise kids with sissors and NEVER let them outside without an adult. OK, when I was maybe 4, Zachary and I were playing outside. Suddenly, he got this great idea to play "Barber". He wanted to cut my hair and said, "We can mix it with dirt and make 'sheep skin' out of it!" So, since I was so young and didn't know any better, I was the victim and let him. After he was done, we made the "sheep skin". He said to me, "You look cute, but let's stay outside till your hair grows back." We waited for a while, but of course had to eventually go inside. My mother screamed and all we could do was cut it ALL off. I looked like a little boy! If I wasn't wearing a hat or dress, people would tell my mom what a "cute little boy" she had! I was to young to care though. You should see pictures! From the back I look TOTALLY like a boy!!

Which means I'm passing up a lot of my friends. Which means I won't get to do these things with the majority of them. Which means I am sorta sad. Which means.... :)

      Maria and I decided to go running with the people after school. The only ones who ran were us, Allen, Josh Kincheloe, and this guy Chad, from my class. Considering me and Maria haven't really run since track in like June, Mr. Hawkins said we did well. (He is sorta in charge of the whole thing) Kinch was making fun of me soo much cuz me and Maria rode back with Mr. Hawkins while him and Allen and Chad ran back. Hey! He offered and Maria wanted to so I was like what the heck. So, we only ran 1 1/2 miles and they ran almost three. (Mary, I know you're gona make fun of me for this! :))

      We were talking about vacation over Spring Break today and my dad was like, "You guys need to be thinking about what to pack..............think small." I started thinking maybe 4 or 5 outfits...I mean, we're staying for like 7 or 8 days! Then he went on to say that we could wash our clothes and should only take the clothes we have on, a "church outfit" and one other outfit. I nearly fell over in my chair and choked on my water!!! I was like, "Noooooooooo way!" And my mom was just like, "I refuse to wash every day!" So, hopefully he will realize that that is waaayyy to small and just give us a certian size suticase or somthing. Cuz, I mean, I can pack small ya know!!!

      Ohhhh!!! Me and Becky came out in our PJ pants and a bunch of s just told me they liked my pants and stuff.....but Christie Straw came up to us and told us that wasn't allowed. So, we had to like run back to the bathroom and put our jeans on. I was like, "What is wrong with PJ pants?? They are prolly more modest than jeans cuz they're not as tight and stuff!" I had never heard of this rule. I wish someone in the bathroom had just told us!!!

      We played this game called Psychiatrist from like 4-7 in the morning. It was soo much fun!!! It's where you have a bunch of people in a circle, and you have one person go out of the room and make up a problem. Like, we did one time that we were high on , and once the guys were ghetto and the s were preps and stuff like that. Then, the person comes back in. That person is the psychiatrist and tries to figure out our problem by asking up questions. Well, the people playing it the whole time were me, Becky, Ellen, Nathan Hart, Josh and Stacey Bright, a named Jessica Young, Joseph and Rebakah Ray, a guy named Charlie, and...I think that's it. So, at one point, it was Nathan's turn. We took Stacey's bracelate and only the person who had it could talk. But, we passed it around so he couldn't see. To distract him from the person that COULD talk so they could pass it, we would like hit him on the back, look at his shoes or something wacko like that. It took him and entire HOUR to get it!!! And the last 10-15 mins we were soooooo obvious about it!!! We were making fun of him for the rest of the time and told him we would be for the rest of his life!!!

Then, Becky did it and got a gutter ball! Oh, and before it started, we asked if we could have bumpers, and the lady said we were too old!!! I was like, whhhhaaaaaaaatttt??? But, it was still fun even thought I couldn't bowl worth anything! :)

      cho
      You're chocolate. You're the old soul type, people
      feel that they have known you their entire
      life. Many often open up to you for they view
      you as thoughtful and trustworthy. Although
      people trust you, you have a hard time trusting
      them. You prefer to keep your feelings bottled
      up inside, or display them very quietly. It is
      alright to open up every once in a while.

      Jocelyn brought this face paint stuff and I was putting clovers on people throughout the day. Like tons and tons of people wanted them!! Hehe, but some of them looked like broccli sticks insted of clovers! :) So, I asked Chad Kiel (a guy in Zachary's class, he was also on the b-ball team) if I could do his face or hand. He goes, "Only if I get to kiss one of you (Me or Jocelyn)" and I was like, oh my word, you think you're soo cool and hott, but YOU'RE NOT! So, I just ignored him and he said I could put one on his hand. So, I did and he was just like, "Oh no! Too much ink!" And he rubbed it ALL over Lindsay's locker!!! I was like, what a jerk!

      Ok, you should have seen my family today......wowie wowsers. I don't know how to post pics on my blog, but someway, somehow, you all HAVE to see pics of all of us dressed up for St. Patricks Day! We had a contest thingy at school to see who had the best costume and guess who won! Allen and Maria!!! They were THE BEST!!!! Allen was JUST like a leperchaun(sp??) and Maria was sooo silly looking! I came to breakfast with a green shirt, jeans, and a green hair clip. Allen came with several green clovers on his jacket and shoes saying "Happy St. Patricks Day!" and "Go for the green!" (We kicked off ANOTHER fundraiser for our school and that's what it is called....that is why they let everyone dress up so silly!!! :)) He also had a green suit jacket, green pants (With green striped socks, pants tucked INTO the socks!) a green bow tie thingy and a green hat. He looked great. He also carried around a mug that said Irish something. Maria wore a green polkadotted skirt, incredibly huge earrings that were clovers, a green shirt, a green scarf, a green sillly head thingy, and several clovers saying "Happy St. Patricks Day, as well. Oh! And she also had green braces!! Tamara, Benjamin, and Zachary were just wearing all the green clothes they could find. Layer after layer after layer!!! So, they all were like, "Charity! You are soo boring! Get something else on!" So, I got this really silly looking hat on and a few green paper clovers as well.

It makes me sooo mad when people from my school (not naming names.....not naming names....) put down other people and act like they're sooo cool. "Man, if the teacher wasn't there and if I wouldn't get expelled, I would sooo beat you up!" and "Man, that guy is sooo annoying! He's such a freak! Man, he's not even human!!!" I tried to stAND up for the poor person, but noooooooo they just looked at me like I was a freak and kept on saying the stuff! UUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! Ok, I feel better. :)

      Then, at school everyone kept telling my happy birthday and asking me how old I was. At one point I started telling people I was 12. They were just like, "Nuh uh! Really?? That means you're yonger than everyone else in the class! Did you skip a grade??" It was soo funny! I told them after class I was just joking. :)

      Mary got Mrs. Ray, my Sunday school teacher, to get the whole class to sing "Happy Birthday" to me! I turned soo red and people were like, "Awww she's blushing!" I didn't think it was very funny! Then, we had a fellowship lunch, which Mr. Hanson was sort of in charge of annoucing things. So, Grace and Mary got him to get the whole church to sing "Happy Birthday" to me, Tamara, and Joel Edwards!!

      Youth group was totally fun! We had like 5 teams and you had to make a movie using props randomly put in a paper bag. We had a show about like 4 different silly ways we 'broke our necks'. I was a preppy teen talking on the phone on my bed when suddenly I fell off backwards and broke my neck. Joe Ray was an over-authoritive, abisive movie director who got beat up by one of his employies. Emily Sturm worked her entire life on a device that let you 'walk through walls'. And Mia Straw was an innoccent erasing the board when she sneezed, threw her head violently back, and then forwards to hit her head on the board. There were some really really funny ones. Oh and then for the snack, someone brought a cake that said in iceing "I did not sneeze on this cake."

      Oh and then on the way home, Allen goes, "Everybody tilt your head from side to side with the beat of the music so everyone behind us will think we are crazy." So, we all started doing it. Me, Allen, and Zachary actually did it for like a couple minutes. It was halarious! :)

      Oh today there was some people from our school running after school. So, Allen decided to drive down to the park where they were running on our way home and see them. We first saw Josh Kincheloe chugging away. So, we rolled down the windows, turned the music up really loud, and started yelling, "Run Josh, run!!" Then, we saw Chad(a guy in my class). He completely ignored us. Then we saw Megan Tallent, who is a very nice, funny senior. She started dancing to the music and acting like she was playing the gitar(sp???). It was reallly funny! :)

      My brother me up. The whole way home from church, Allen was attempting to achieve an irish/scottish/aussie accent. He, of course, failed. But, it was funny! He said, (in his failing Irish accent) "I want to get me a shirt that says 'Kiss me I'm Irish', you may get a smooch here or there..." I started ing up! It was so incredibly funny!!!!!! :)

      See, yesterday after school, me (against my will, Maria dragged me out there and Josh Kincheloe said I was on his team), Allen, Zachary, Maria, Benjamin, and some people from school were all playing a basketball game! It was soo much fun except for the fact that I played the whole game in my pretty red socks and they got all ruined and I got big blisters on both of my big toes!!! But, I did make four points!!! :)

      Ok, I brought my art project home to work on ove the weekend. Of course, I didn't even get to it. So, I didn't have art class till today......when the project was due. Whoops, I left it at home! So, I told my teacher and since a bunch of people weren't done, she extended the due date to tomorrow morning at the end of class. In hopes to remember it when I got home, I wrote on front and back of my hand 'get art project!'. I would have totally forgotten about it, since it was mostly off by the end of the day, if Maria had not asked for the art box in my room. I gave it and my picture to her in hopes that SHE might remember it better than me tomorrow. Hehe, we'll see tomorrow I guess!!! :)

And sometimes, you feel like you have to make something up. This is what he said, "Yeah..I was on .....actually it was childrens tilenol." It was sooo funny!!! I started laughing soooo hard and that made Grace laugh really hard, too and it was halarious!!!!! :)

      OH and then just like 10 mins ago, I said to my dad," My brain doesn't function like that." And he answered, "You can leave the 'like that' part off." I am soo disgriminated against at my house. The 15th commandment, 'Thou shalt not jugde people by their hair color'. Sounds pretty good, huh? :)

      Me and Mary went shopping yesterday and we were trying on bathing suits for TWO HOURS....and....I DIDN'T EVEN GET ONE!!!! You know how FRUSTERATING that is? Well, at one point, (we were in dressing rooms right by eachother), Mary goes, "Come see this one, Charity." I was like, "Ok, I want you to see this one I have on, too." She said, "I think it might be too low.." and I said, "Yeah, mine is a little low too, I think..." So, she opened her door....And we had the EXCAT same suit on! It was sooo funny! Then, we went to Kohls and bought some stuff, then we went to JC Penny's. It was really fun! Mary and I tried on these gorgeous prom dresses! Then we took pictures of them on my mom's phone. They are soooo pretty! And they were on sale for only like $99! lol. Then Mary ended up staying the night, cuz she already had an outfit for today that she bought! It was tons of fun, but now I have to go back again cuz I was supossed to get four things, but I only got one of the four. Hehe, more shopping! I think I'll take Grace this time... :)
