It's over

So, the torture ends. What am I referring to you ask? MIDTERMS! You don't get to enjoy your winter break because of them. You get slapped in the face mutilple times BY them, and after they're over, what happens? YOU HAVE TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL! At least in finals you know it's over. sigh. I really need to get these grades up so I can stay in NHS. *sigh* this just adds to my desire to go for my certificate instead of IB diploma. All this crap is ruining my GPA. seriously. Wanna know something though?! You'll never guess I promise. okay here it is................... I MADE A 92 ON THE APUSH EXAM!!!!! Happy for me? You should be. I studied like crazy for that exam and it's the only one where my efforts paid off. But hey, at least I passed them all. Well actually I shouldn't really say anything since I haven't seen my Bio score, but considering there should be a great deal of extra points on there, it might be alright. That exam was a slap in the face. It was like, "oh, you thought you knew this? WRONG!" or "oops, didn't think this would be on here did ya? Just skimmed over that part didn't ya? sucks for you! cause there's 5 freaking questions about it! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. IB sucks. For seriously. At least we have a long weekend after all of this trauma. But guess what I get to do in this long weekend! Study for the SAT that's next Saturday that I am signed up to take. and reading ahead for classes so I can start out the new semester being an awesome student. I am determined to convince my teachers that I am not an idiot. I know what I'm talking about. I'm not a slacker. (ok i have been, but this is the new Faucette, kk? Not the lazy slacker Faucette that needs sleep.) Yep. Should be a fun semester. 

Yes I finally have a picture. woo hoo! Not like anyone reads this and cares, but hey, you never know I guess. So I've been thinking recently about what I want to do with my life. I know at least one thing: Whatever I do, I want to make an impact. I want to make a difference. When I die, I want people to have good things to say. I DON'T want to sit around and waste my life. So last night I was reading the second chapter of "Don't Waste Your Life", and he started talking about when he didn't know what he wanted to be. He mentioned the word "missionary" and I felt this sort of.... I don't know how to describe it. It was like God was just showing me one more sign that I should be involved in the ministry. When I thought about me becoming a missionary I almost cried. I don't really feel worthy enough to do that as a profession. I look up to people like Chad and Ryan Morgan in Lynch, KY who live faith-based. They don't make an income. All of their needs are met by God. I want that kind of faith. Knowing that God will always provide a way. I feel like I am supposed to go and be a missionary. Where? That I do not know. But... I have a guess. You see when I was in KY this summer (where my pic was taken) I felt as if I was meant to be there. I didn't want to leave when it came time to go. It was so beautiful. I could see God's glory and majesty everywhere I looked. He was in Shekinah Village. He was in the people there. He was in the nature. When you go to the overlook, you can see across 3 states. It's like the mountains never end. I want to go back so badly. sigh. So now that I've let out what I've been thinking about for the past 24 hours, I need to go. Cross your fingers for snow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everything Glorious

So this is a song by David Crowder Band (My favorite band :)) I was reading a book last night called Don't Waste Your Life by John Piper, and it just kind of reminded me of this song for a minute. 

The day is brighter here with you
The night is lighter than its hue
Would lead me to believe
Which leads me to believe

(chorus)
You make everything glorious
You make everything glorious
You make everything glorious
And I am Yours
What does that make me?

My eyes are small but they have seen
the beauty of enormous things
Which leads me to believe
there's light enough to see that

(chorus)
You make everything glorious
You make everything glorious
You make everything glorious
And I am Yours

From glory to glory
You are glorious You are glorious
From glory to glory
You are glorious. You are glorious
Which leads me to believe
why I can believe that


You make everything glorious
You make everything glorious
You make everything glorious
And I am Yours
You make everything glorious
You make everything glorious
You make everything glorious
And I am Yours

From glory to glory From glory to glory
You are glorious. You are glorious.
You are glorious. You are glorious
