It's funny how two kids who were brought up in the same family could turn out so different.
My brother (who's 11) and I are different as day and night. Especially in our atitudes twards life.
I'm always the super happy optimistic one who's practically never in a bad mood and he's a total pessimist who always is going around complaining about stuff.
In my opinion, who needs to waste time complaining? Life's only so long so live it to the fullest and enjoy it while it lasts. Even on the baddest day there's usually some little good thing.
I suppose that could be considered a talent of mine...I can almost always find something good in anything that happens. Even if I can't at the time, later on I think back on what ever happened and I can find the good in the situation.
Like a couple years ago one of my best friends in the whole world moved away to California and left my brother and I as the only kids in the entire church. It took a while, but now I can see all sorts of good stuff that came out of it.... If I hadn't been the only girl my age in the church I probibly wouldn't have the incredibly cool birthday gift of an awesomely decorated room from these two ladies that are in the group. And I might not have gotten to know the people at Laurel's church because I most likely wouldn't have gotten to go to their evening church times. Infact, I might not even know Laurel because if that family hadn't moved my mom wouldn't have put me in choir because she thought I needed to make some new friends (I met Laurel in choir). So...yeah. Like I had written in one of my poems I'd posted, "every dark could has it's own silver lining".
I've learned that the Bible verse is very true-"All things work together for good to those who love the Lord."

That is really cool Sarah! Lindy and I are complete opposites too. We both usually are pretty happy about things but our preferences and pretty much every thing we are completely different. But, you know, we balance each other out really well. Lindy has lots of passion and I'm usually more conservative. And I love her just the way she is!
I am officially going to post like, 54 comments on here, k?
How are you today Sarah?
I'm dandy, get to go to a job orientation. Boring!
But, it will give me full time work until we move.
Yeah, we are moving to Idaho in Nov.
Always fun moving.
It's ok, I'm actually excited about it! I don't know why, just am.
Sooo, i have been practicing my piano and the songs are starting to sound really good!
Do you play any kind of instrument?
Aha! I know why you are not on here as much any more!
You started school! How is that going?
I will post a few more comments than leave you to crack up and answer the questions.
Random to say, random to say.
I know! How do you feel about pretty hair clips?
I like the ones with hears and flowers and sparkles and and. . .
I like to wear them all the time!
Although, my is sometimes too thick and it hides the clips.
Ahem, my hair is too thick.
Ok, last comment. I really really really really REALLY wish you could come to my slumber party next week!
I will tell you all about it though!
Now this is my last comment Toodles!
OH MY GOODNESS,LUCY!!!! Haha, this must be a record for the most posts by the same person! lol.
Ok, I shall now answer the randomly random questions... :)
"I am officially going to post like, 54 comments on here, k?" - Okay...
"How are you today Sarah?"-I'm good (usually am!)...especially after laughing over how completely random and silly this is.
"Do you play any kind of instrument?"-Yeah, I'm currently learning electric guitar. It's going pretty well so far.
"You started school! How is that going?"-Ah, yes, good guess Lucy. It's going quite well so far. I do all of my school work on my laptop in my room and that's real nice. Plus I get Fridays off and that's even better :) And Algaebra is not quite as horrifying as I thought it would be...So far.
"I know! How do you feel about pretty hair clips? "- Ooooh, pretty! Can I have one?? Or maybe a whole package...?
& I really wish I could come to your slumber party too, but I don't think that my parents would drive my clear to vancouver :(
Now it's my turn to ask a question: What town in Idaho are you moving to? I wish it was Lewiston!!! If it was you'd be right accross the river from me and that would be really really fun.
I would LOVE to give you a whole package of hair clips!
Well, we are moving to the Twin Falls area. I know, it's not very close to where you live. *snuffle* I'm really sad that we won't be close to any of our friends anymore. Guess I have to make new ones! Don't worry, I will never forget you!
I will be back to leave the rest of the comments!
And I'd love to get a package of hairclips from you :-) lol.
Too bad it can't be lewiston... How come you all had to move?
That was my thought!
I could see how it would be. That's probibly what both me and my friends would say if I ever had to move. But really, how come your family is moving?
