I am a junior.
I do indeed might have senioritis (spelling?)
Summer isn't coming fast enough.
Math is hard, although, I understand it an itsy bit.
I am falling behind in some classes.
Just real stressed.
Just real stressed.
Nothing encourages me to get up early.
Boys are being a pain, like always.
I feel friendless. Sometimes.
I just want to be home playing all day.
The weather is getting to me.
Grades are starting to become official.
I am craving a good shopping spree!
I already have the stay up late craves and the want to sleep-in mornings.
Music is getting good and I want some new Cd's.
All that I am trying to say, life is a little tough right now.
i am proud.
i wanna share a quick story. last night, as i was walking out to my car. i was at smiths. a man hollered at me.
"ma'am? do you by chance have any spare change?"
(i was FREAKED OUT!) "ah, i am sorry, but i don't." (lying)
(sadly) "okay, thank you for your time and sorry for disturbing you."
as i walked away, i felt guilty. for i knew heavenly father was watching me and right then, it hit me like a ton of bricks... "what would jesus do jalissa?"
i scrambled through my "marry poppins" purse and found some spare change. i looked for the man and creeped, that's right, i creeped on this man. i rolled down my window and hollered at him.
"HEY!"
turning awkwardly, the man turned to my car.
i said the quickest little prayer... 'i am helping him out, please protect me.'
"I found some change!"
he walked over and smiled. he smiled just a little.
"oh, thank you so much. this will help me! thank you so much! god bless."
my heart was softened.
"you are so welcome. good luck!"
i don't know what the man needed the money for, but all i know is that jesus would've done the same. i love that at random times, i have the help of my heavenly father and i always know what to do. he loves me and you and is watching over us.

Long time reader, first time commenter. Love your thoughts here. Sometimes I think you might judge the stronger sex a little harshly, but I get it.
Can you explain the difference between irony and coincidence? I here people conflate those terms often, and I'm hoping you can shed some light.
I absolutely love thissss!! I love your faith and I totally look up to you.
Such a simple act such as giving a stranger some spare change can really set an example and touch someone's life!
As I read this, I know I felt the spirit. Amazing, something so simple, can be so amazing!:)
