Kelly Clarkson

Me and Jen - going to see Kelly Clarkson
Originally uploaded by messyessy76.

Oh my word! Me and Jen (aka "little sis") went to see Kelly Clarkson on Monday at the NEC. She was IMMENSE! Me and Jen knew like all the songs and were screaming (yes not singing) them at the top of our voices. When we got to the NEC we bumped into Claire, Anx and Vicky so we walked in with them and it was freeeezing in our skirts...I didn't have a jacket, it didn't go lol (Jen was sensible). I then bumped into some christian mates from Soul Survivor (guys?!) I asked this one guy after why he went and he said because someone gave him a ticket to go...fair dos. ANYWAY, we got in waited for like what seemed forever and then she came on and started with 'Walk Away'. I could write forever about each individual song but if you saw me the day after you would have already heard it. I'll summarise SHE WAS AMAZING because she put so much passion and energy into her voice and performance and she was like really chatty and cool and saying this girl was really cute.
I just want to thank Jen for inviting me to go with her, love ya lil sis :D

"Since you been gone..."

What is love?

I bet you've thought of this before and you know that awkward question when people say "but how do you know you're in love?", how are you meant to answer, does anyone know?! The only way we even know of love is because of God. But I'm talking about a different type of love, if you know what I mean, by the way I'm not answering this question because the point is is that I can't...can you?
Here are some quotes that I like about love that I've been thinking about recently...

That thing, that moment, when you kiss someone and everything around becomes hazy and the only thing in focus is you and this person and you realize that that person is the only person that you're supposed to kiss for the rest of your life, and for one moment you get this amazing gift and you want to laugh and you want to cry because you feel so lucky that you've found it and so scared that that it will go away all at the same time. - quoted from "never been kissed"

"Love is always patient and kind; it is
never jealous, love is never boastful or conceited; it is never rude or selfish;
it does not take offense, and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other
people’s sins but delights in the truth; it is always ready to excuse, to trust,
to hope, and to endure whatever comes. Love does not come to an end." - from the Bible which is quoted in "a walk to remember" - a very good film!

Love is friendship on fire! quoted from "The Perfect Man" - a Hilary Duff movie (woo!)

Have you ever been in love ?

Have you ever been in love?
Been in love where your heart races when you see them.
When you ache when they are not there.
You only yearn for their return.

Have you ever been in love?
Been in love when your head can only think about them.
Every song reminds you of every special moment you've had with them.

Have you ever been in love?
Been in love where only your future is all that matters.
You see them in your arms forever and ever.

Have you ever been in love?
Been in real love?
I have ... the moment my heart fell for you!

Homesick

Not from earthly home. It's a title to a MercyMe song:
"If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place Lord, won't you give me
strength to make it through somehow I've never been more homesick than now"

I feel like that at the moment...it's somewhere I know I'm safe from the worlds troubles and heart breaks. It's somewhere I wanna be...with my Maker, my Saviour, my Lord!

Trying not to drown

I feel like work and life is floating just under the top of my head and any more will actually drown me. I just managed to control a whole work load of drama by actually completing it which took me like 4 months - it was 10 pieces of cw though. Now I'm panicing about getting my music cw done - which I can only do at school because it's a composition on the special software on the computers, as well as haivng two drama shows on thurs and fri this week and the music has to be by this fri and it's no where near finished.
I can't wait for this half term, I'm just going to unwind so much by doing nothing! Hehe.

I want sleep!
