Update on My Life

Hey there, everybody. Now I know that only a few of you want to hear about my life, but whatever. 😉 Here’s what’s happening lately:

1. We started rehearsals for Treasure Island today. Omigosh, that show is so long… Five acts! For a high school show, it’s pretty long. But I think I’m gonna love the show. It’s going to be huge, and I love most of the cast. Not all of the cast. But most of it. 😉 Also, because of theatre, my life just got busy. I got home from school at 9:00 today. Ouch.

2. Okay, I rarely get mad. I used to get mad a lot last year. To be honest, I do get mad at my mom fairly often. I don’t know why, I guess we just clash. But aside from that, I rarely get mad.

But I got ticked off today. See, there’s this “somebody that I used to know” who thinks that he’s in charge of the world. So here I am, and I’ve been put in charge of specific groups and responsibilities, and he wants to take that authority…. but he doesn’t want to do work. He just wants to feel important. It just pisses me off because I have put SO much work into these things that he wants to take charge of, because it’ll make him feel good…..

And it worries me that I feel this way. Because I KNOW that I need to be more compassionate, and so normally I would just excuse it. But he just keeps doing it. Sigh.

3. My cousin is still in the hospital, I believe. Kinda worried about him, but God will take care of him. And my sister is moving in with me this Sunday. Let’s see how long we can live with sharing a room. 😉

4. Internal debates are hard. Here’s an example: One of those most amazing people in your life is hurting. And you want them to be happy, and you pray for them like crazy, but you don’t know how to cheer them up. Then the debate going on inside is “What can I do? Or is it even my job, or does God want me to leave it to Him?” In essence, right now I don’t know if God wants to work through me, or if he wants me to be there and watch Him work. All I know is, there are times when I REALLY want to be there for people, and there is literally nothing anyone can do but God. I just have to pray that it’ll happen. Guess I know what I’ll be praying about tonight. 🙂

5. Speaking of God…. I really love Him so much. I am so hungry for Him. And it feels awesome. Unfortunately, I never get much time to spend with people who would just… Read the Bible with me. I don’t know what it is, I just have this overwhelming desire to share the amazing love that God shows me with someone else. Which makes me think about my life…. If I get mad at people because they want to feel important, I think I must be doing something wrong. Another thing to pray about.

6. I pretty much just figured out today that I need to stop complaining so much…. I mean, I’ll get two hours of sleep in a night and be like “ooooh I’m so tired….” And the truth is, I’d rather find a reason to be happy then keep dwelling over things like that. I mean the past three weeks I’ve just been dwelling on all those negative things, when I could just be feeling happy.

So that’s my life right now. A bit stressful, but I’m just gonna be happy.

Hope you have a great night!

In Recent News…

This is a photo I took with my friend a bit more than a year ago. Good times.

1. Audition Results! Last Wednesday I auditioned for the fall show, Treasure Island, hoping to make CREW and not cast. (For those of you who don’t know, I’m a thespian officer, ensemble member, and I don’t like to act. I am crew.) Wellll the audition itself was… an audition. To be honest, I can’t say that I’ve ever liked auditions. Why? Because it’s not like I can show off my freakish backstage skills during an audition. But this audition was actually fun! I got to pretend to be a man, which required my amazing man voice. It was pretty slick, just FYI. Anyway, cast/crew list was posted today and I got… *drum roll*

Head lights! Which is EXACTLY what I wanted! Heck yeah!!! So I am so stoked!

2. My Sister I’m not sure if I mentioned that Bree was going to be in the army, but she just got discharged. Unfortunately she now has no job, home, or college. SO she will probably be moving in with us soon. To be honest, I’m not worried. As she was speaking with her sergeant, I prayed that God would open/close the right doors. I have confidence that He is going to lead her in the right direction. (Prayers will be SO appreciated!!)

3. I went to my first football game on Friday!!

4. Weird cravings and urges? Lol! I have had SUCH a craving for: Mexican rice, pistachios. French fries, shrimp, mac and cheese, and Cheetos. Oh my gosh. Not even controllable. This feels so weird, guys! If any of you bring me Cheetos, I will love you.

5. AP homework is hard. Guys, I totally signed up for AP World History, so I cannot complain. Just know this- do not sign up for an AP class (or college) if you can’t handle reading a dreadfully boring textbook all night. Nuff said.

Well that’s pretty much what is going on lately. I hope to be on here again soon, as I have more things, bigger things, to post about (happy ending post, eh?. I hope you guys have a great day!

Joyously,

Kenny ❤
