... 2010 is in there again! Haha! High five to Momo! The only one who thought it was as funny as I did. :)
Andywho... Okay, so it's January! That means... 5 months(ish) until Summer. I've been thinking of doing a sort of 'summer fashion poll' on Facebook. This means, every other day or so, I'd use my status to ask a fashion question. But not like, "What's your favourite colour shirt," or anything like that... More like, "Guys, if a girl is wearing a tight tee-shirt, is it distracting?" In the end, I'd post a note or something, tag all the people who commented on my status, and show the results.
Yes? No? Questions? I wouldn't start doing this until probably April... but I've been thinking about it quite a bit.
Driver's Ed part II is killing me....... slowly, but surely......... it's so incredibly boring.... I yawned about five times during class today. Next week we take the test, though, so it oughtn't be too bad.
Well... I'm in bed really early today... 'cause I couldn't sleep until like... 3 last night... and I'm dead tired... but really hyper! Wow, that was a lot of ellipses... <- like that one. :)
RFOTD (random fact of the day): Lately, I've been lazy and not capitalizing my letters, so it's hard to remember to do it...
I'm gonna watch some anime now... which I should probably not do, and do homework instead, but I'm too tired to think. Good night!!
Love, Sarah

Scrambled Thoughts... Mixed Feelings...
What are friends if you can't trust them?
Just another person you see and say hi to, I guess.
~~~
You're...
My Friend,
My companion,
Through good times and bad.
My friend, my buddy,
Through happy and sad,
Beside me you stand,
Beside me you walk,
You're there to listen,
You're there to talk,
With happiness, with smiles,
With pain and tears,
I know you'll be there,
Throughout the years.
(See more quotes here)
~~~
What is a best friend?
Someone who's there to ask, "What's wrong?" even when you look and sound perfectly fine.
Someone who's there to give you a hug, even if you don't ask for one.
Someone who's there to talk to you, even if the conversation is completely attention-deficit and random.
Someone who's there to pray for you, even if you think you don't need it.
Someone who's there to love you forever, even if you make the biggest screw up in history.
Someone who's there to tell you you're pretty, smart, and not a failure.
~~~
True friend?
Hidden enemy?
It's hard to tell who your friends are.
I want to trust, but can I really?
I want to love, but can I really?
I want to help, but can I really?
~~~
Any man can make mistakes, but only an idiot persists in his error. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero
~~~
I sit beside you and I love you, but I hate you. I don't want to feel this way, but I can't stop... So help me, God, to let this go...
~ So Help Me God ~ Fireflight
~~~
Dear friend, you are so precious...
~ Dear Friend ~ Stacie Orrico

I love you.

YAY!
Let us all rejoice! Sarah has her computer back!!
After a week without it, I realized how incredibly blessed I am to even have one... *happy sigh*
Well, I can get back to posts that aren't just incredibly random and/or announcey. Well... still random. :)
So, every month or so, we go to an English Country Dance at Christ the King. There's one tonight! Huzzah! So, if you live in the Ann Arbor area, and have nothing better to do... come to CTK! Although, I'm pretty sure everyone who reads this and lives in Ann Arbor already comes to them... Ah, well.
On February 13th I'm going to play at this fundraiser at our church... We are in desperate need of a new piano... Anyways, I'm playing a really old song that I played like... last year? I don't remember. Anyways, it's La Folia by Corelli, who is one of my favorite composers EVER. Right next to Debussy and Vivaldi. Anyways, this guy plays it a little differently than me. I play it the way Suzuki has it. Oh well, mine still sounds pretty impressive, even if it's nothing next to this. Speaking of my violin... I changed my strings today and now it sounds all weird and metally... :( Oh well, it usually only takes me a day or so to break in the strings.
That's all. Well, actually no... I did my hair really nicely today, and, not to be vain or anything, but I really like it. :) So... I took a photo with my webcam (terrible quality...) and photoshopped it (so the quality was bearable)... Unfortunately, I had to change the file to a JPEG, so now the colours are a grayish... :(

Yoyoyo!
Hey! I'm in a weird mood today, if you couldn't tell.
My sister got a blog: The Idle Words. Check it out. She'll probably stop updating it, though... hahaha.
I started Driver's Ed 2 today... Oh. My. Word. Two hours of sitting and listening to an old man talk about not driving whilst texting or under the influence. *rolls eyes* Okay, I'll be mature. It's a good thing... but seriously... two hours.... zzzzzz.......... huh, what??
Uhm... I didn't really have a reason to post... except to tell y'all about my sister's blog... uhmm..... my sister's sick, actually... hrm...
Love, Sarah

Comments...
Hey!
So, if you leave comments, I do respond them as soon as I have the chance... However, I realized that if you don't check the 'receive emails from follow-up comments' (or whatever it says) button, you don't know that I reply. So, either have a blog I can post on (Spencer...) or check the button or I'll send it to you via email. Most of you have blogs I can just post a reply on, so that's cool. I really appreciate feedback!! Uhm... That's all.
I still don't have my computer, if you couldn't tell. :(
Love, Sarah

Falling in Love...
It's like falling off a cliff!
At first, you're scared to go near the edge... Then, you get up the courage to jump, or somebody pushes you off.
For a bit, you're still scared of getting hurt at the bottom, but then, it's so incredibly fun, that you don't want to stop. You just want to keep falling, and falling.
Of course, this is a bad analogy, because if you jump off a cliff, you're bound to hit the ground and go splat... So! We'll pretend this cliff never ends, and you have a parachute. You don't know there's no bottom, though...
You might get scared mid-fall, and realize, "I don't know where the ground is!" You might pull your parachute. Then, you'll just float down... Which would be slightly infuriating, because this cliff never ends. You'll just float and float and float, never knowing when the ground will come.
You want to fall again, because it was so exhilarating, but you don't want to let go of the parachute, because, well, you'll not get it back.
Falling in love, and being in love, is like the falling, fun part. It's awesome, so you just ride the ride for a while, not caring where it ends up.
Life is like the panicky part. It hits you with the buts and the what ifs. You pull out your parachute, or back out of relationship, and float. You're stuck, because you know that if you go back, there's bound to be some more panic and wind, and you know it'll even harder to pull out.
So, don't panic. Don't pull your chute. If God shows you the ground, then pull the chute and land as gently as possible. However, if God doesn't show you the ground, keep falling. It's fun! Chances are, though, if He shows you the ground, you didn't jump when He pushed you. You jumped when you thought you should.

I haven't been able to sleep until 2am this past week... I've been up thinking... Which, really isn't the smartest idea to do... Anyways, I thought about ^ that! Don't ask me why... I don't actually know.
*OUUUUUUUUUUUCHHHH* I just slammed my hand into the table.......
Uhm... I don't really want to do anything today, but I really ought to read anatomy... dang it..... I need to write a paper, too... *sigh* Welcome back to the monotony of school. Gaaaaaahhhh........
We have a ton of snow, and it's really sunny... it's so pretty...
I don't really have anything fun to write... so... byebye!
Love, Sarah

P.S. New gadget! I got rid of the 'ratings and recommendations' thing that just gave me troubles, and put in a reactions thing!

I Miss My Computer....
*sob sob*
Okay, anyways....
I was hanging out with a bunch of friends and I saw that my friend's shoelace was all crooked. Being as obsessive-compulsive as I am, I had to fix it. When I did, he said, "I was wondering when you'd notice that... I was like, 'That'll bother Sarah...'" And I thought, "That's nice, he thought about me over the littlest thing..." Then I was thinking... is God like that? Does He wonder what you'll think every time he does something? Did he think about you when he made each little bug? Each animal? Each plant? Did He think, "I wonder what Sarah will think of this... I hope she likes it...."? I bet He did. I mean, if you love someone you'll think about them a lot, right? You'll wonder what that person will think of everything you do. God's in love with me, right? So He thinks about me a lot!! That's awesome. Just throwin' it out there.

Tuesday was the best day of the year! Yes! Well, considering it was only the 5th day... I'm starting off pretty well. Instead of doing Algebra (my calculator ran out of batteries...) I coloured a picture of a dinosaur. Two of them, in fact. Then I had an awesome time at Prayer Meeting. We discussed the smell of Japanese, how Michael smelt like candy, and why Tristan smelt like a pancake... It was cool. Oh, and that whole other thing ( ^ see above) happened, which was cool.
Wednesday was looooong.... so very long... I now have three violin students, so I make almost $100 a month!!! *victory dance* We went out to eat RIGHT before dance, so throughout the whole class I felt like a fat slug... I don't look like a fat slug, but I definitely felt like one. I am in no way, shape, or form fat. Uhm... Oh! My daddy made me drive in snow *pout*... halfway home I got a phone call and was like, "Gwah!! I can't answer the phone whilst driving!!" It was my friend Brandon, because we're going to a Kutless concert in February!!! YAYAY!! Anyways, he called me about tickets, and told me to call Jalen about it. So I called Jalen and asked him about it, stuck him on hold, called Brandon to tell him, and went back to talking to Jalen, whom I ended up talking to for... a long time. It was a pretty great way to end a long day.
The Sparrow's exchange student, WonKun, and his family are coming for a visit from Korea, which is pretty awexome. With an X.
Ballet and Youth Group were canceled today because of weather... Holy moly, there's like 5 inches of snow! It's exciting!! Even though it's a pain in the behind to drive in...
What else is happening....... I don't know...................................
I finished watching Bedtime Stories today. It was really funny...
Andywhooooo............ I keep thinking I'm missing something, but I don't know what............ Oh well, I'll remember eventually.
Oh, I'm going to put up a list of blogs I follow. Well... blogs that are actually updated every once in a while.
Love, Sarah

Twenty Ten!
Happy New Year, every one! 2010 is here! Yay!
... Now what? *looks around awkwardly*
Hehe, anyways.... Let's see, what's happening this year? I'm turning 17... uhm.... That's about it. I don't think we're going to do anything exciting this year... Well, except for the usual random exciting we do. But, I'm not going to Mississippi this year... We may go to Richmond, but that's nothing new... So! Brand new year chock full o' surprises! Wheeee!!!!
There's a song that's been going on in my head today... all day... ever since I woke up at... 11? Haha, we stayed up way too late last night. Anyways, it's called Brand New Day ~ Fireflight. I love Fireflight... :)
That's all! Have a wonderful day! Happy 2010!
Love, Sarah

Brand New Day
I'm waking up
The world is turning
The sun is shining again
I'm holding on
To things I shouldn't
It's time to let them go
I've been on a losing streak
Hit so hard I couldn't speak
But when I hear Your voice it fades away
And I can hear You say
It's a brand new day
The pain goes away
I'm headed for the door
And I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home
Your love, it burns
Away my darkness
You guide me when I'm blind
You are the light
That shines inside me
Showing me I'm
So much more
When I've been on a losing streak
Hit so hard I couldn't speak
But when I hear Your voice it fades away
Take me into Your arms
My home lies within Your heart
... Now what? *looks around awkwardly*
