It's almost Christmas! It's almost Christmas! It's almost Christmas!!! I'm so happy! (In case you couldn't tell). So my family's Christmas plans are going to be different this year. Usually we go to this big family reunion type gathering somewhere in upper Michigan by Manistee on Christmas Eve. (That's the town my Grandma and Grandpa Fred live in). I have so many first cousins, third cousins, half-aunts and any other kind of relationship you can think of on the Fred side. This isn't a bad thing, I like having so many people I know I can count on and trust. It's just funny how people I don't even recall come up to me and joyously exclaim, "My how you've gotten bigger since the last time I saw you!" or "Oh honey, you're so sweeeet!" An uncle that sticks out in my mind is my Leslie. Now I don't know if he's my second or fourth or whatever uncle but he is related to me somehow. Another one of my memorable Fred family relations is Don. I think he's another uncle of some sort. (You might think it's strange that I get my uncles confused like this, but please be aware that both my grandma and grandpa on this side of the family have like 7 brothers and sisters each, most of them got married and had children too). Don is always so nice, his house was the one the Christmas Eve gathering was at most of the time. Last year when I was talking to him I found out that he was a shop teacher in this area for a while, Coloma maybe? Anywho, he's the kind-of person you look up to and respect. I hate to say this, but he's not doing too well, Don had cancer before and fought it. Well, the cancer came back as it has a way of doing sometimes. He's really sick and is in need of prayers. I know you don't know him, and, well it's not like I know him all that well either, but please just remember him-especially at this time of year. This year, instead of going up to Don's house, I'll be going to the Christmas Eve Service at my church which should be really awesome. Later that evening we're going to open presents. We take so much for granted. Forget differences this Christmas season and enjoy the time you have with the people you love, nomatter where you are. Lyrics! (You knew it was coming!)

Wow. It's been a really long time since I last updated, sorry! Hmm...what's happened since September? Here goes... * I made National Honor Society. * I didn't make Honors Choir which is okay-I realized that it would've been hard to fit it into my schedual and the gas money to go practice so far away would've been burning a hole in my pocket. It's awesome how God works things out without you even realizing it. Congrats to the ones who did make it, go you! * Because I didn't get into Honor Choir I now have a part time job at Paddywack's. I love working there, it can be frusterating sometimes just because I'm still new and am getting the hang of things, but all in all it's a fun place to work and my co-workers are friendly and helpful. Oh, if you've never heard of Paddywack's it's a chocolate and jewlery store in St. Joe next to the new Pappa Vino's. Being surrounded by chocolate and the smell of Italian food can be hard sometimes I'll admit it! * Auditions for Bridgman's mucial are tomorrow and the day after. Be praying for everyone trying out, auditions include singing either/both the low and high parts assigned (male and female singing auditions are seperate) and going through a selected part of the script. I'm surprisingly not nervous which is a good thing. * I'm Angie in Woodland Shores Baptist Church's Christmas musical. She's always up in the clouds, always dreaming about romance and adventure. It's fun to get to play her because she's fun and has good lines-and a good about of lines at that, not too many, not too less. The play is set in the early 1940's before the World War, the style is really cool too. I get to wear this long gold dress-well all of you will just have to come and watch it. I'm pretty sure it's the 17th of December...I'll keep you posted. That's all for now, I have to go practice for auditions and the quartet. Oh yeah! I'm in a quartet too! It's me and three other girls from Bridgman-we're singing the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. I'm singing second soprano-it's really fun. I got to go finish up my homework now, have a good rest of the night and Merry Christmas! (Hey, I can say it now, it's past Thanksgiving)! (Another thing, I put that I'm listening to A Charlie Brown Christmas because in band we're playing that song and a lot of other cool holiday ones). Okay I'm really done now. Bye! ~Amers | |||
Hey everybody! Comment ca va?.....Je tres bien, merci! ~ I'm eating popcorn right now and I'm quite content. (It's the Kettle Korn stuff). I probably shouldn't be eating it considering I have braces, but right now I don't really care. I should get my braces off in about 8 months! Yay! (Still a long time, but better late than never). ~ The pants songs from Five Iron Frenzy are great, they are so funny. Oh man, I guess you'd just have to listen to them for yourself, good times.... ~ There's a slight possibility that I might go to Paris and London over spring break. (That is if I get enough money for it and everything). It would be with a group of people from school, I need to get more information on it. I'll keep you updated. ~ I'm doing honors choir! ~ LIFT practice is in less than an hour, and I'm excited about it. I love singing and playing keyboard-so much fun! Being in the worship band is so awesome, worship music really touches my heart and brings me closer to Christ. Come to BLAST tonight everybody-it starts at 5:30 at WSBC. It's going to be really cool. ~ Band's going well, I really do love it. Our show this year is better than it was last year at this point so that's a good sign. Go Beach Boys! ~ Yes, I am putting off doing my Algebra 2 homework. I don't like math, ner..... There's a test in that class tomorrow-I hope I get a good grade on it. I should probably go do homework and practice all my music stuff. Thanks for reading all these ADD thoughts of mine, I really do think I hav---look a flying pink turtle! Bye! *Amers*

GOD IS GOOD! Today was a pretty good day-I was in a total hurry to get ready in the morning because I stayed up until 12 last night finishing Algebra homework and writing down song lyrics in my notebook-I was so tired this morning, lol. Algebra 2 went well, I actually understand everything! Life can be so funny sometimes, not what you ever would plan or expect-but life sure is wonderful, very wonderful.

Ok, so I'm thinking I should probably apologize for the last entry. I'm not depressed as some of you might have thought....I guess I was just in a "deep-thinking mood". I've been going to the beach a lot lately (I don't seem to have anything better to do, I go to see people, and it's a great place for me to get away: to think and pray) so possibly me going to the beach spurs up these thoughts. Band is going well, I think I'm getting better at not worrying about little things. Me thinks that if I had this "thought-zapper" it would be bad....I worry about little stuff already. This "thought-zapper" would make my worries more extreme, lol. I'm excited about Five Pines Live coming up, yay!!!

I think that's really the only thing I'm looking forward to because of school starting. It'd be awesome if I had a Gilbert, but I'm not going to worry about it. God will bring me him in His time, I just need to keep trusting His will and praying for my future hubby.
