there are a few reasons: 1) I just need something new, but not posting
anywhere is kind of strange...i like having a place to share my
musings-even if no one reads them, 2) "the browser we detected is
unsupported and may result in unexpected behavior." ~little notice at
the top of my window. that doesn't sound too promising and I really
don't feel like downloading and getting used to a new browser. firefox
works just fine for me. 3) (which is really the same as #1 only further
explained) i am ready for a change in my style of blogging. i realized
the blogs i like to read are way different than the kind i have and in
order to completely change i feel like I need to completely change my
blog. also, since life is pretty much all about give and take and i
thought i might try my hand at "giving" seeing as i've done a lot of
"taking" in the blog world. who knows? maybe some lovely people will
want to take part in a new adventure with me. <br />
So I just wanted to let you-whoever <i>you</i> are-know where i stand
here. i haven't forgotten about my blog and it's not that i don't have
time to post...i just haven't been writing like i used to and lots of
things are changing in my life and I think i need something new. we'll
see where it takes us. :)Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02401965658948565097noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068299464574497844.post-66982785155523106032012-05-03T21:50:00.001-04:002012-05-03T21:50:24.419-04:00it's May again...and i'm doing drabdaymomay again, i think i mentioned it last year...anyway i haven't posted in a really long time (i know, epically failing at this blogging thing), but if you want to read some stuff i've written (and find out what <a href="http://drabdaymomay.blogspot.com/2011/04/how-this-whole-thing-works.html" target="_blank">drabdaymomay</a> is) you can check it out over <a href="http://drabdaymomay.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">here</a>. <br />

With a red hat which doesn't go, and doesn't suit me.<br />
And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves<br />
And satin sandals, and say we've no money for butter.<br />
I shall sit down on the pavement when I'm tired<br />
And gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells<br />
And run my stick along the public railings<br />
And make up for the sobriety of my youth.<br />
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain<br />
And pick the flowers in other peoples' gardens<br />
And learn to spit.<br />
<br />
You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat<br />
And eat three pounds of sausages at a go<br />
Or only bread and pickle for a week<br />
And hoard pens and pencils and beermats and things in boxes.<br />
<br />
But now we must have clothes that keep us dry<br />
And pay our rent and not swear in the street<br />
And set a good example for the children.<br />
We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.<br />
<br />
But maybe I ought to practice a little now?<br />
So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised<br />
When suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.</span></span>Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02401965658948565097noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068299464574497844.post-47514449585723959892012-03-21T17:52:00.000-04:002012-03-21T17:52:06.534-04:00more weather (lovin' it!)last year i was singin' a different tune. last year it snowed A LOT and by this time I was sick and tired of it...but this year I think it only snowed twice (?!) and even then it was only a couple of inches. It's crazy how things vary from year to year-the past few days have been in the high 70s to low 80s (amazing!) and the daffodils are already blooming. it's crazy wonderful. sooooo i went outside today to find a little bit of spring for you guys, and here's what i found:<br />

i can't just sit in front of my computer and say how much i love basketball-i have to work out, run, shoot, practice. i have to DO basketball to excel.<br />
i can't just want to be an A student-i have to work, manage my time, complete assignments. i have to DO school to succeed.<br />
i can't just say "i love you"-i have to pursue, serve, help. I have to DO love to grow.<br />
and the list goes on.<br />
<br />
but you know what? <i>God</i> didn't just say "i love you" he didn't just want me, he didn't just sit on his throne-he acted. he sent his son to conquer death, to pay the debt i could not pay. and he <b>succeeded</b>.<br />
<br />
therefore <br />
even though life takes work and the journey seems long and hard<br />
"I can do all this through him who gives me strength." Philippians 4:13 (NIV)<br />
<i>because</i> of Jesus i can do all things and <i>only</i> through Jesus can i do all things. He gives me the strength to run this race and by his grace i will finish strong.Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02401965658948565097noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068299464574497844.post-32461630285264841262012-01-26T13:56:00.001-05:002012-01-26T13:56:54.360-05:00i keep thinking it's March.the end.Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02401965658948565097noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068299464574497844.post-63869438935882980692012-01-24T12:50:00.000-05:002012-01-24T12:50:54.095-05:00it's been awhile...and i have a little time before i have to leave for my basketball game (and i'm done with school-whaaattt?!) so i thought i'd post about my recent day trip to NYC.<br />
it was pretty awesome. I went with some of my dearest friends. I had never been before so it was pretty cool to see time square and the empire state building and such. I was amazed at how incredibly HUGE everything in time square is. i mean, it's really crazy. pictures and movies just can't do it justice. <br />
here's a couple pictures:<br />

i received the bouquet from the music class i helped with (for kids ages 6-10, part of our home school co-op) after their little performance. i am biased but i think it might just have been one of the cutest things ever. so cute i might just spell it with a "q"<br />
they were quute. so adorably quute.<br />
...on another note-i am proud to say that i shot all of these in manual. :)Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02401965658948565097noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068299464574497844.post-7810492921344521872011-11-24T08:58:00.000-05:002011-11-24T08:58:25.598-05:00<span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">hAPpY tHaNKsGiViNg</span><span style="color: #741b47; font-size: x-large;">!<span style="font-size: large;">!!</span>!<span style="font-size: large;">!</span></span>Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02401965658948565097noreply@blogger.com0
