!urgent prayer request!

Hey ya'll--sorry I haven't done a post in forever, but with school and everything, it's just hard to find time to blog. Glad ya'll understand! :) Anyway, back to the !urgent prayer request! Jonah, a guy who's like a little brother at me, is in the hospital due to a not-so-fun injury. He ran into his front door and instead of hitting the wooden part, he hit the glass. And his arms went right through it. So last night he had to have emergency surgey cuz the glass cut him all the way to the bone. Now his arms are in casts and he can't dance in our choir show at school. Which really stinks, seeing as he's the only guy that can actaully dance. But he should be able to sing his solo still. Yay!! He's singing "Baby" by Justin Bieber (I love that song!) and he sounds exactly him. So at least we'll get to cheer him on. But anyway, please pray. It's not the best situation to have both your arms in casts. Just think what a hard time people have with one arm wrapped up!

Thanks guys! Well, girls...

Praying for Jonah,
anna :)

i thought she was gone for good this time...

Nope, I'm still here! Well, kinda-sorta. I've been super-busy (I think I've mentioned that before??) And when I say super, I mean SUPER. My schedule is full, overflowing, utterly exhausting...you get the picture. And as I've also said before, I promise the teachers gang up on us. I three big projects due--all within the same week! A 5 page research paper, a science presentation, and a family tree. But anyway--back to the up-side of things. I like to stay positive, ya know?  I got out of school today for GT Vocal! Woo-hoo! Singing and dancing are really good escape when you're stressed out. So if you're stressing, grab your hairbrush and turn up your favorite song. Right now mine is "This Is Me" from Camp Rock. Okay, am I the only one who still watches Disney Channel? So what if I'm in middle school? Everybody laughs at me and says "You still watch Disney Channel? I haven't watched that since, like, 3rd grade." Well guess what? I happen to love The Suite Life of Zack and Cody. But then again, nothing can beat out my all-time favorite--Saved by the Bell.

Well, that's pretty much it. Oh...other than high school is right around the corner. That's a whole 'nother story...

Blessings && smiles,
anna :)

we are the world.

I love the music video. Period. When something like this happens, we need to come together. We're all God's children, we all need love. And that's all that matters.

check it out :)

Hey girls! I have the first ever blog-merical, made especially for you by my best friends (in real life!), Lily and Alexandria. So...here they are! Enjoy!

better late than never, right? *sheepish grin*

Sorry I missed Valentine's Day, ya'll! I've been sick the past few days and instead of doing a post on Sunday afternoon (like normal), I took a nap. And it was a good nap, too.

So anyway, Happy Valentine's Day! Well, at least I hope it was happy :) Some people consider Valentine's Day depressing if they don't have a boyfriend or girlfriend to share it with...but me, I enjoy it. I have friends and family who love me lots (and hopefully a guy admiring from a distance!) Hey, a girl can dream, can't she?

And most importantly I have Jesus. He loves me unconditionally, even if I don't buy Him chocolate in heart-shaped box. All He asks is that I obey Him and His Word. Which I'm definitely trying to!

I thought this music video would be perfect for Valentine's...hope ya like it! It really got to me. It showed me that He loves me no matter what. And that I have really great parents.

Love in Christ, anna :)
