Old Song I Wrote


I love you Lord
With all my heart and soul
Because You gave it all
You are my Savior
I worship you Lord
With everything I’ll give
You’re the One that let me live
You gave me life

(Chorus)
You are my God
You are my King
You gave me everything
A sacrifice for me
You have saved me
You are the lover of my soul
And I want You to know
That I can’t live a day without You

I need you Lord
I’m desperate for Your love
I’m desperate for Your touch
I can’t live a day without You
You are the One that gives me hope
You are the One that gives me peace
You are the One
And I know that You love me


...from the heart and soul of an eigth grader.

30 things I'll Never Do


I got this idea from a Creative Writing Prompt site.
1.) I won't buy a ferret. Those things are long and slightly creepy. Although there was this one ferret at the Valpo Petland that was kinda cute. I pet it's head and it kept trying to crawl up my arm. But I still wouldn't want to buy one.
2.) Become a saxaphone player. I don't know why, but the saxaphone never seemed like an attractive instrument to me.
3.) Move to Alaska. I wouldn't be able to take bitter cold all the time. I am very sick of the cold right now.
4.) Hug a polar bear. Well, unless it's fake. But hugging a polar bear doesn't sound like a very good idea even if they do look cuddly.
5.) Marry a rich old guy for his money.
6.) Watch the show Lost. It looks really confusing and uncomfortable. I watched one episode at the fitness barn and it was kinda cool. But now it's way too complicated for me. Plus I watch the kid version of it, Flight 29 Down. And it was created first!
7.) I will never love Hannah Montana.
8.) Watch soap operas. I refuse to become addicted to soap operas. They're ridiculous and not clean at all.
9.) I will never love Great America the way I once did. I have tried but 2007 was really bad. There was too much advertisements and the new manager guy is taking out Splash Water Falls and Space Shuttle America- two of the rides that I had some of my fondest childhood memories on. AND, now there are new Disney sections in the gift shops. After much research I have discovered that Disney is evil. But that's a long story. We'll talk about that later.
10.) Go skydiving. Not because I'm afraid of jumping out of a plane, because I am afraid of hitting the ground with a huge SPLAT!
11.) I will never eat sushi. The whole concept of raw fish disturbs me to the highest extent.
12.) I won't eat out of a garbage can. That's gross.
13.) I won't ever become a nurse because I'd end up barfing every day from the gruesome things that they see. I hate blood and vomit.
14.) I will never go to a phychic fair. You see, every time Dad and I went to Kenosha we'd see this Days Inn that had a phychic fair every week. We always joked about going in but I would never do that because that's messing with really scary stuff. Plus they don't have the phychic fairs either.
15.) I will never stop loving Wisconsin even if I don't get to move there one day. (I can't believe I just wrote that.)
16.) I will never drive across railroad tracks when I see that there is a train coming. Railroad tracks scary the poop out of me. Trains scare me also. Oi.
17.) I will not be in the circus. Clowns frighten me.
18.) I won't bathe in Spinach.
19.) I won't get married in a foreign country or state. I'll either get married in the state that the guy and I live in or Wisconsin. Wisconsin will always be my first choice.
20.) I won't ever get another pet bird. The last one was attacked by my cat, Fred. Poor Wendel.
21.) I won't get a credit card and spend money that I don't have. I've seen what that does to some people and I don't want to be buried in debt.
22.) I won't go to a casino when I turn 21, no matter how curious I am.
23.) When I have kids I will not take them to arcades with tickets and stuff. I used to do that all the time when I was a kid and now I wish I could have the money I wasted on all those games. I could have bought the prize I got for a dollar. Except, Deal or No Deal is really fun.
24.) I won't collect my finger nail clippings or pencil shavings in a box. That's kinda creepy.
25.) NO PDA! (If I get married.)
26.) I will never buy a gun. That's not cool.
27.) I will never rob a gas station if I'm running low on cash.
28.) I won't hire a housekeeper, even if I'm rich. I should be able to clean up after myself.
29.) I will never become a professional juggler. Mainly because I don't even know if there's such a thing.
30.) I won't get a job just for the money.
There was supposed to be 50 but I have run out of ideas. Of course, I have a bunch of serious ones but I'll do those another day.
