Every year, English teachers from across the country can submit their collections of actual analogies and metaphors found in high school essays. These excerpts are published each year to the amusement of teachers across the country.

Time is of the essence
*Chat between Residents at mailboxes
Resident 1: *Sarcastic* I wish you would move, I'm in a rush and I need to get my mail!
Resident 2: Oh okay, I'm sorry .. let me get out of your way.
Resident 1: You know I'm just kidding pal. I don't have not a single place to be, that's the good thing about being old you know .. no more rushing around, just easy livin, that's it.
Resident 2: Yep I know what cha mean. The only thing I wait for is when the Lord calls me home .. that's about the only thing I'm waitin on.
Resident 1: That sounds about right. So don't rush buddy .. we got all the time in the world.
Resident 2: Yes, yes we do.

And sometimes, in the midst of everything you wish you could simply fade away.
Or is it just me?
Our Colors
havent-got-a-prayer:
You were the apple of my eye, but even the sweetest fruits rot into the earth. I loved you in so many shades. In the morning, you were my deep blue fulfillment. In the afternoon, you became the emerald which painted my castle walls. Evening blew in with the breeze, and you were a vermillion that colored my sky with passion. Night brought yet another hue, and you were...

Screaming
is always bad especially when you have to supress it with a smile and all you really want to do is throw something. Today has been one of those days where just when you think it can’t get any worse - there it goes getting worse by the minute. Work has become quite a depressing place as it has taken on a much more corporate feel due to the struggling economy. For staff, the pressure to...

Promise Fulfilled
My Pastors and some of the interns from our church just saw a man raised from the dead.
“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go to the Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son” - John 14: 12,13.
This is the promise that...

It's Official!
I picked my wedding dress this weekend and true to Genesis form, it was NOTHING like I said I would get =)
There were several dresses to choose from but as the saying goes, when you find the one .. you just know that it’s yours. It was the third of about ten dresses I chose to model and I couldn’t help but compare all the rest of the dresses to it.
I am so excited! Imagine me, a...
“It’s sad when people you know, become people you knew…and when you can walk...”
There's a pity party ..
and I’m the guest of honor. Just today though, that’s all I’ll allow myself.
I hate being sick especially when it causes a sore throat. That’s always the absolute worst. I really don’t want to be here at work today but I’ll just have to suck it up for the time being. It just seems like today is dragging by sooooo slowly. I suppose that’s always the case...

Emo Coaster
Today has been an emotional rollercoaster. These are the days that I’m glad only visit few and far between.
Work was same of course. Dealt with residents, co-workers, vendors and my boss again as she’s returned from her 2 day vacation (the woman seriously loves work way too much.) Because I’m a morning owl and prefer to finish the days work as soon as I’m done with my...

Ahhhh .. God is so good! It almost feel so corny and ridiculous that I am this happy so much of the time. But God outside of always being great has been orchestrating things like crazy with our roles at the church, wedding planning, family issues etc .. and I can’t express how grateful I am that He guides us as we walk by faith. Choosing to walk by faith has been one of my best decisions...
A simple lesson easily forgotten
It’s easy to forget in the midst of our busy day just how fortunate we are …
to have freedom.
to have liberties.
to have life.
Think of all of those who have to do without.
Thank You Lord that You give us innumerable reasons to be thankful despite our human tendancy to forget.
Happy Birthday .. to ME!!!
So it’s almost that time of the year again!! I can’t believe I’m almost 22 - boy do the years just fly!
Because I am such a nice person and I like to make things simple for everyone, for those of you who are thoughtful enough to be thinking of what to bless me with here are some specific things that I wouldn’t mind unwrapping ;)

Divine High
I had the best high last night.
Leading worship for youth is always a challenge, as teenage emotions and attitudes change as frequently as the weather in Seattle. Sometimes, on the good days, you get youth who come to the alter fully abandoned and ready to worship. Those are the nights that come few and far between when the going is easy. Then you have those nights where you, as a leader are...
