Hey, my week wasn't such a failure after all; TODAY I GOT MY DRIVER'S PERMIT! Yay! And hey, I guess the week wasn't really as bad as I thought it was. Though I got less schoolwork than expected, at least I had the opportunity to serve my family. Something was up with my body this week too (builtup of lack of sleep and weight training=exhausted body and mind). But really; I need to stop setting my self-esteem on my to-do list. If I don't learn to just get off of the rollar-coaster of happiness found on living on sand and stay on the Rock, I'm not going to get far.
Oh, there is so much opportunity in this world. I am humbled by the amount of choice my Father has given to me; there are just so many options and ways my life could go. It's so difficult to find what would be the BEST option for me. I've been feeling so uncertain; everytime I find something that I might be interested I hear something about it or learn more about it then lose interest. But this I KNOW: God will steer me into the right direction and will give me the amount of education necessary for whatever I do if I REMAIN FAITHFUL.
Ah, last night's play! It was Fiddler's opening night=all of the actors were visibly afraid. But I still enjoyed it. At the theater I got to see the Hamilton family, which was such a pleasant surprise! They are a family that goes to karate where I used to go. There's Jim Hamilton (the dad/black belt/SWAT guy/goofball) and Misty (The secretary/mom [to EVERYONE in the dojo, even Soke: the headmaster!]). They have two teenage children who did not do karate; therefore I did not know them. I didn't catch their oldest son's name, but their 16 year old daughter Christine was in the play. Then there was Amanda, who I think is 13 now. Or was it 14? I don't know. She's a friendly, good person. Lastly, I met their little 5 year old whose name was Shadow. Well, that's what he told me! I missed them, and they me. I miss going to karate. I can honestly say that doing it really boosted my growth mentally, physically, and spiritually. I hope to come back to it once my list of to do's shortens, mainly Scouting. That's one of the reasons we left karate: to have more time for scouting. Must get that Eagle~!
Which reminds me, I dropped my original Eagle Scout Project idea, which was not really mine anyway. I'm hoping that I'll come up with something else. I must learn more about my community to find something challenging and useful that I could do for it!
Oh, something kind of funny; I saw Misty and Christine at the DMV today; another coincidence. She was getting her liscense, which I think she did get.
Tomorrow I'm doing a planning meeting with the Jarvis brothers about our newest movie idea... we've got fun ideas yet to brainstorm about a parody called Pilgrim's Digress. It's going to be bigger than anything we've ever pulled of before...
