All done now

It is 12:49 pm on Friday, May 18, 2007.

I just took my very last High School test EVER!!!!

Ahhh I don't know how well I did on it, but that is not the point. I'm done. Well just about. I have a quiz next block but we don't even have our books to study anything so it will be a joke...and I have to make a poster for Monday's in-house day. Ahh.

So close.

On a more serious note, all year I have thought about leaving High School. This is my last year to be with these people. My last chance to tell them about Christ and show them that they need Him. I am a chicken and I do not share with people nearly as much as I should...The past couple weeks have been really difficult. I know that God has given me opportunities-very specific ones-and I have been struggling because I know it is what I need to do, but it is so hard. I am praying and getting into God's word. Paul says in I Corinthians 2 that even HE was not confident in himself as he shared the gospel. He said he did not come with big words and fancy concepts so that the people's faith would be in God's power and not in his words. This passage encourages me so much to talk with those around me, especially those that I know God has specifically told me to talk to. I have a sort of 'list' and I have a few more to go...I have to plant the seeds; God will choose what to do with them after that. These people may not make decisions to follow Christ right now, but what we talk about will force them to think about life and life after death.

That is the only thing keeping me from staying home. These last few days that I have here will be great opportunities to share with others. I just have to obey God and do it!

so bored!

I'm kind of ticked off...today is my in-house day, so I have to be at school all day long. A few weeks ago, my teacher told us that our "present" for the month of May would be that we got to sleep in and not come into school until 10:05...Well she said no more about it, so I figured she just forgot about it or decided not to do that now. Ahhh. so what did I do today? I came to school at 8:30. Hmmm. only four people are here and my teacher is not here. The sub. talked to her and she said, "Oh make sure you don't count them absent. I told them they could stay home until 10." Ahhh I am so mad at myself! So it is not even 10 yet, and I am done with what is due today, next week, and the next week too. I am about to finish my last assignment too, but I wanted to take a break. If not I'll be even more bored out of my mind. I am very bored, and mad because I could have slept in a little today. But it's okay. There are way more important things...
