It's the most wonderful time of the year!

1. It's Holy Week. 2. It's Holy Thursday. 3. Easter is coming up on SUNDAY!

I know that a lot of people would put Christmas time as the best time of the year. Presents, Christmas trees, decorations, and snow...all very nice things. But I think that with Easter, it's easier to focus on the true meaning. Christmas has a ton of distractions...too many. I love Christmas too, but the best and most wonderful and most GLORIOUS time of the year is Easter.

So...I revised the words to the song! See how you like them. :P (BEWARE: some of them are really...uhh...weird. :D)

It's the most wonderful time of the year

With the kids all egg-hunting

And indigo buntings that all chirp and squeal

“It's the most wonderful time of the year!”

It's the hap-happiest season of all

With easterly greetings and gay happy meetings

When friends come to call

It's the hap- happiest season of all

There'll be parties for hosting

And sweet things for toasting

And faces all filled with a glow

There'll amazing stories

And tales of the glories of

Those Easters long, long ago

It's the most wonderful time of the year

There'll be flowers all springing

And hearts will be singing

Full of Easter cheer

It's the most wonderful time of the year

There'll be parties for hosting

And sweet things for toasting

And faces all filled with a glow

There'll amazing stories

And tales of the glories of

Those Easters long, long ago

It's the most wonderful time of the year

There'll be flowers all springing

And hearts will be singing

Full of Easter cheer

It's the most wonderful time of the year

Yes, It's the most wonderful time

Oh, It's the most wonderful time

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

So...

...my seating audition results are in...and I'm terribly disappointed in myself. I went from being 1st to coming in 3rd.

Oh well...it'll just have to do...

But thank you for the prayers!

Holy Week!

I didn't know if it was appropriate to say "happy Holy Week", so I didn't. Holy Week isn't necessarily..."happy"...so...uhh...yeah. ;)

Anyway, it's holy week! I changed my blog design. It's kind of...dreary, but I'll change it for Easter.

We're also off of school this week. It's our spring break...YAY! An ENTIRE WEEK off of school...how exciting!

So anyway...even though I don't know if I should say "happy Holy Week", I know I can say Happy Palm Sunday. So...

HAPPY PALM SUNDAY and HAVE A GREAT HOLY WEEK!

Date...April 16, 2011

Starting time...10:05

Mood...happy, excited...

Outside my window...it's a very dreary day. Rainy, cloudy, and not especially warm...

I'm thinking...about how to redo my blog for Holy Week...

I'm currently reading...He Leadeth Me (still!) and all my history reading

I'm listening to...Bug making monkey sounds, people in the kitchen, music that just came on...

I'm wearing...well...uhh...now I have sweat pants and a striped shirt on. I had something else on, but then decided that I should wash it...:P So, yeah.

I'm looking forward to...Tonight!

I'm hoping...that my audition results will come out soon! I'm sure they'll be out tomorrow night at Evans...but I'm DYING over here!

Yesterday, I...watched The Scarlet and the Black. It's about a priest at the time of WWII who hides Jews in the Vatican. It's very interesting. We've watched it before and decided to watch it again.

I'm hungry for...something sweet...

The song stuck inside my head is...Your Great Name by Natalie Grant...

I love...my friends!

I loathe...you guys won't believe what I just did. I just realized this. I just started laundry...and I had my iPod touch in my pocket...and I put my jeans in the washer...and so my iTouch was in the washer for about 5 minutes!!!! I just went looking for it and realized and found it in there...I can't believe I just did that. So now I have to let it dry out for a couple days. This is really awful...

This week, my goal is...1: to post about my Evans result. 2: to get my Touch to dry out. 3: to remember to never do that again...

Did I meet last week's goal?...well...don't know if I did my best, but...

Ending time...10:19. I had to stop to get my iPod out of the washer.

Life Defined

I'm joining Nana@By The Way in her Life Defined today!

Adorable is...an almost-two-year-old who mimics what you say except that it comes out 10x cuter

Preparation is...the 40 days of Lent...

Waiting is...the longing for Easter to finally be here

Wonder is...the feeling of wondering how Our Lord could bear the shame and pain that came with the cross...

Beautiful is...a spring evening. Sunlight (still!), leaves, flowers...

Pride is...knowing that I'm a daughter of The King of Kings...which makes me a PRINCESS. A real one. Imagine that!

Love is...what kept Jesus on the cross...

Rejoicing is...the the lights come on and the Gloria is sung at Easter Vigil...believe me, I am SO excited!

Pray?

PLEASE please please please pray that I'll do my best on my audition! It's coming up TONIGHT and I'm praying that I'll just do my very best. ;)

Starting time...11:10 AM

Mood...uhh....hmm....i can't quite tell. :P

Outside my window...It's not so nice looking. It's been dreary here the past few days...

I'm thinking...about the movie we watched last night

I'm currently reading...He Leadeth Me (still) and a whole bunch of history books

I'm listening to...SILENCE. Annette and Josie are at Gramma's for the weekend, and everyone's kinda scattered all over. :)

I'm wearing...Jeans, reddish/pinkish shirt, black tanktop...

I'm looking forward to...tonight! birthday party...

I'm hoping...that we can get the 2nd movie soon....

Yesterday, I...watched Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl and THOROUGHLY ENJOYED IT. I've never watched it before, so I was really impressed with the special effects...and want to watch the 2nd one soon...:D

I'm hungry for...Hmm...something sweet (that I can't have 'cause it's Lent) or...i don't know.

The song stuck inside my head is...

I love...good movies! (who doesn't?)

I loathe...having too much history reading. again, who doesn't? ;)

This week, my goal is...to do my VERY BEST in my seating audition. It's coming up on this monday! PRAY FOR ME!

Did I meet last week's goal?...well, I actually haven't had my viola lesson for this week yet...it had to be rescheduled for today...so I don't know yet...

Ending time...11:17 AM
