Megan has seriously made my day-we are going to New York to see Wicked in January! First, going to New York is amazing in itself. I absolutely love it there! Secondly, being able to see Wicked again makes me so happy. I saw Wicked back in December at a time in my life where I was really unsure about who I was and where I was headed. It really changed me-it empowered me and actually gave me chills. Wicked is truly an amazing musical, and if you haven't checked it out, you have no idea what you're missing.
Until next time...
Defying Gravity From: Wicked the Musical (duh!)
GLINDA (spoken) Elphaba - why couldn't you have stayed calm for once, instead of flying off the handle! (sung) I hope you're happy! I hope you're happy now I hope you're happy how you Hurt your cause forever I hope you think you're clever!
ELPHABA I hope you're happy I hope you're happy, too I hope you're proud how you Would grovel in submission To feed your own ambition
BOTH So though I can't imagine how I hope you're happy right now
GLINDA (spoken) Elphie, listen to me. Just say you're sorry: (sung) You can still be with the Wizard What you've worked and waited for You can have all you ever wanted:
ELPHABA (spoken) I know: (sung) But I don't want it - No - I can't want it Anymore:
Something has changed within me Something is not the same I'm through with playing by the rules Of someone else's game Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep It's time to trust my instincts Close my eyes: and leap!
It's time to try Defying gravity I think I'll try Defying gravity And you can't pull me down!
GLINDA Can't I make you understand? You're having delusions of grandeur:
ELPHABA I'm through accepting limits 'Cuz someone says they're so Some things I cannot change But till I try, I'll never know! Too long I've been afraid of Losing love I guess I've lost Well, if that's love It comes at much too high a cost! I'd sooner buy Defying gravity Kiss me goodbye I'm defying gravity And you can't pull me down: (spoken) Glinda - come with me. Think of what we could do: together.
(sung) Unlimited Together we're unlimited Together we'll be the greatest team There's ever been Glinda - Dreams, the way we planned 'em
GLINDA If we work in tandem:
BOTH There's no fight we cannot win Just you and I Defying gravity With you and I Defying gravity
ELPHABA They'll never bring us down! (spoken) Well? Are you coming?
GLINDA I hope you're happy Now that you're choosing this
ELPHABA (spoken) You too (sung) I hope it brings you bliss
BOTH I really hope you get it And you don't live to regret it I hope you're happy in the end I hope you're happy, my friend:
ELPHABA So if you care to find me Look to the western sky! As someone told me lately: "Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly!" And if I'm flying solo At least I'm flying free To those who'd ground me Take a message back from me Tell them how I am Defying gravity I'm flying high Defying gravity And soon I'll match them in renown And nobody in all of Oz No Wizard that there is or was Is ever gonna bring me down!

I'm not quite sure what it is, but lately I've been feeling the need to go back to Tulsa for no other reason than just to be there. Actually, I think it's more of the road trip experience with Val and Jessica that I miss. We had so much fun those couple of days, and I would give almost anything to be able to relive that experience again.
Eh, kind of depressing now that I think about it.
Oh yes, and one more thing...no radio station should be allowed to play Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Please stop rushing the season people!!
Until next time... "I'm crazy for you"

Brian's birthday was celebrated on Sunday. Nice chance for the family to get together, share a meal and oh yes, how could I forget...embarrass the living daylights out of me because I was there with Dan.
When I was younger (12/13 maybe) I used to have a club with my cousins. We called ourselves "The Scary Stories Club." Corny, yes, but hey, we had to entertain ourselves somehow. Anyway, during the holidays, we would perform skits, plays, dances, etc. My cousin Brian just happened to have a video of a dance we did for Christmas. And so in the presence of Dan and Andrea (Andrew's girlfriend), my family proceeded to watch the video and have a few laughs at The Scary Stories Club's expense.
Yup...not a family function goes by where I don't get embarrassed.
Hanson's live cd comes out tomorrow. You should check it out! Why, you may ask? Well, because Hanson rocks...and because I said so. hehe
Until next time...
"I love you...so much."

Wow, I haven't updated in almost a month. Been kind of busy, I guess. Donna and Chris are getting married on Saturday. What an interesting wedding that's going to be...
Until next time...
If I speak in human and angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal.
And if I have the gift of prophecy and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge; if I have all faith so as to move mountains but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away everything I own, and if I hand my body over so that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.
So faith, hope, love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Hanson is coming to Philly/the surrounding area 4 times on this tour and I can only see them once. Ah well, at least I get to see them at all, I suppose. And on top of that, Dan actually wants to go with me. This should be interesting. Darn Fall Ball being on the same day as the show in Atlantic City. I'm guessing it wouldn't look so good if the social coordinator for YASKI didn't show up to the biggest event of the year. *sigh*
On another note, vacation with Dan was out of this world. I really love that guy.
Until next time...

Love of a Lifetime By: Firehouse
I guess the time was right for us to say We'd take our time and live our lives together day by day We'll make a wish and send it on a prayer We know our dreams can all come true With love that we can share
With you I never wonder - Will you be there for me With you I never wonder - You're the right one for me
I finally found the love of a lifetime A love to last my whole life through I finally found the love of a lifetime Forever in my heart, I finally found the love of a lifetime
With every kiss our love is like brand-new And every star up in the sky was made for me and you Still we both know that the road is long (But) We know that we will be together Because our love is strong
I finally found the love of a lifetime A love to last my whole life through I finally found the love of a lifetime Forever in my heart, I finally found the love of a lifetime

Went down to Rock Lobster in Philly for salsa dancing on Sunday with some people from YASKI. The event itself was pretty cool. The scenery couldn't have been more perfect or romantic. We pier we were on overlooked the water and the Ben Franklin Bridge. It was absolutely beautiful. From 8-9:00, we were taught how to salsa dance. Learning how to dance wasn't nearly as bad as I thought. The girls all rotated to different guys, which made it really cool. That way both guys and girls could dance with people of other skill levels. Watching Dan try and salsa was hysterical. He was such a sport about it. Actually, the whole idea of going dancing was his, and looking back on it, I can't believe I almost didn't go. In the end, it was something different for the both of us, and we had a wonderful time.
Until next time...
"Thank you for loving me."

Sorry for the lack of updates, folks. I guess I just don't have too much to say. Life is normal, I suppose, except for when there's a YASKI event to be involved in.
Eric moved out a few weeks ago. He and Jacqui are now in their own house, and I must admit that it is weird not having him at home. Sometimes I get freaked out because I know in all actuality, I'll be the next one to move out. Am I ready for that though? I see other people moving on with their lives and yet I feel like I am still stuck in the same place. I am comfortable at home, comfortable with my job and my friends. Maybe, just maybe, it's time to break out of that comfortable mode. Just a thought.
RIP Mrs. Wheeler. Thank you for all you taught me throughout your short life. Your cheery attitude and warm smile will forever hold a place in my heart.
Until next time...

Undone Retreat CD!!! |
] |
I really forgot how much I enjoy going on retreats. I had such a great time on the Undone Retreat this past weekend. Somehow, I was able to make my talk last for 45 minutes, and I was so excited about that. There are so many things that happened this weekend that were amazing. I can't believe how much I miss everyone already. I woke up this morning feeling so incomplete-just knowing that I wouldn't see Michele or Dan, Molly Manners, Maria-it was so sad. I only got 6 hours of sleep, but somehow I'm still functioning.
I learned that Michele is such an incredible friend, and I didn't think I could get any closer to her. We really bonded this weekend, and she was there for me in ways I never thought possible. I just love her so much!
How incredible it was to be able to see Dan for three days in a row from morning to night. The bonding experience we shared this weekend compares to no other. Our relationship is stronger than ever before. I have so much love in my heart for him. He is such a gift from God.
Some memories from the retreat:
1. Molly Manners! (a/k/a Molly Meanie and Little Evil) 2. Mottes, you better not flatuate in my face! 3. Human knot with Wendi and Mottes-her hair stood up on end! 4. Me, Michele and Dan praying at 1:00 in the morning in the chapel right by the altar. 5. Hand motion praise and worship! 6. The quote board. 7. I'll see you back at the farm! (Maria to Elizabeth) 8. Walks with Dan-at one point walking late at night and having all the lights shut off on us...talk about scary!) 9. Fish stick runs at 2:30 in the morning. 10. Skipping down the hallway at 3:15 in the morning with Michele while everyone else was asleep. 11. (Dan to me) Hey-look at the quiet sign! He moved me behind the door to kiss me and Michele swears my foot went up in the air when he kissed me. 12. (Michele to Dan and me) You guys can kissey kissey now. She went right in front of the room to our door and kept her back to us. 13. Laying with Michele right before my talk to calm me down-her singing to me. 14. W2 15. That's plastic! 16. Michele tucking me into bed a bazillion times. 17. Matty looks like Christopher Robin. 18. Bonding experience with Pete and Casey. 19. Paulie is ticklish! 20. "I was blissfully unaware" (Mottes to Michele about his butt being right in front of her face) 21. Pete's laugh. 22. The bugs that followed us during the entire retreat. 23. The "pyramid" that me, Michele, Dan, W2 and Molly Manners tried to form-Molly giving Michele and I massages with her laughing. 24. Adoration. 25. Michele's huge hat and sunglasses. 26. No purple-ing! 27. Michele and I-we were definitely pinking! (sometimes, we were even violet-ing!) 28. Embrace the butt! 29. Elizabeth-sharing her story with me and the bonding experience we shared. 30. We need a Molly Manners doll. 31. Casey's talk. 32. Everyone's talk. 33. Confessions with Father O'Donnell. 34. Nasty Natalie! 35. Me almost falling over when in the break room with Michele at 2:30 in the morning. 36. The shower and hearing Michele first thing in the morning say "Oh my God" 37. The shower picture we never got to take with Michele, me, Dan and Matty. 38. Pick uuuuuuppppppppp! 39. The position you had to get in to let the water from the shower hit you. 40. The bench in the shower. 41. Michele and I catching Dan and Matty practicing yoga outside.
I know there's a lot more memories, but my brain doesn't want to work at the moment.
Until next time...
Undone By: Mercy Me
No apologies For who I'm meant to be The only thing that matters is I am free When I am overwhelmed Holding pieces of my heart When I feel my world Start to fall apart
To the cross I run Holding high my chains undone Now I am finally free Free to be what I've become Undone
Even in defeat The face of tragedy Still you'd have to say that I found victory In brokenness comes beauty Divine fragility Reminding me of nail scarred hands Reaching out for me
To the cross I run Holding high my chains undone Now I am finally free Free to be what I've become
To the cross I run Holding high my chains undone Now I am finally free Free to be what I've become Undone
Hallelujah I'm undone!
To the cross I run Holding high my chains undone Now I am finally free Free to be what I've become
To the cross I run Holding high my chains undone Now I am finally free Free to be what I've become Undone
To the cross I run To be what I've become And I'm undone

Seeing as I've never been drunk before, this is pretty amusing!
 You're a Happy Drunk! When you're drunk you have a perpetual smile plastered to your face. You're the drunk person who hugs everyone and tells them you love them. You like to make sure everyone knows how great the world is and how much he or she means to it.

P.S. Val was right. Wearing one is so much better. The end.
