July's Blue Sky

Hello all! So I have sky-dived! It was quite awesome! I don't know, it was really scary, but then again, I was jumping out of a plane! lol. But seriously I think that I was most freaked out about three times in the air. The first was just as I let go of the plane and floated out into the open air. That in it's self is wierd because you can feel nothing around you but cold fast moving air. Then I was wiggin'out when I couldn't get hold of my rip cord (though not so much because I had two instructors with me who could pull it), then I was freaking out right after the cord was pulled because I got really disorientated and I didn't have any clue waht direction to go (for landing). But other than that, is was pretty exhilarating!!!!
Really, I shouldn't have worried about a single thing because I knew what to do in case of emergency (like the main shoot was twisted up some how, there's a back up). I also had a one-way radio attached to my helmet so someone could give me directions for landing and they could check to make sure I had control.
It took a really long time to finally jump(and I got a free extra ride in the plane, because of the cloud cover stoppping us from diving initially) but I finally jumped at around 7:00 p.m. or so. My brother Craig jumped after me, and his turned into a night jump (some people actually do those on purpose, though this time wasn't really on purpose!) There were eight of us jumping, including my other brother Joe. We all stayed until Craig jumped (he actually landed directly on his rump, lol, though he is OK). I got it professionally taped (up in the air) I haven't even seen the footage yet! I don't think any of us thought it would take so long for all of us to jump. ah well... It was still great, even if just to say I have done it before. : )

June Excitement

Wow! It's June and it is making itself be felt! It's at least 95 degrees out there! and this is supposed to be a mild state for weather. Ha!
Well I'm really excited about my upcoming birthday because I'm turning 18, then I'm going sky-diving! So you all better pray for me cause it's gonna get crazy!
Also, I just read this fabulous book called Father Elijah by Michael D. O'Brien. This is seriously one of the best books I have ever read. Maybe it's the mind-set I've been in for the past couple of weeks, but everything seems to be pointing to the end times. Everything I've been reading (and not on purpose either) has had an apocalyptic message. The messages from Holy Love have been getting more and more blunt. Jesus is trying to be as clear as we humans can possibly understand. I hope to just go on as I have been, I have actually miraculously been going to every week day Mass since I came back from Holy Love last weekend (the weekend before this past one). It feels so good! It is so strengthening to go to Mass so often, I can actaully feel it!
That reminds me of Saturday morning, I had my SAT testing that day. I had to be at the school by 7:45 a.m., so I had to wake up by at least 6:45a.m. in order to be there on time (yes, i do need an hour to get ready and eat breakfast : ) The thing is, daily mass starts at 6:45. So me, trying to be smart, set my alarm for 6:45 reasoning to myself that I would go to the afternoon Mass. Well My Angels thought otherwise ; ). They decided that it would be a good idea for me to have Jesus inside of me for my big test day. So I awoke at 6:27 and I had just enough time to argue with them, decide I would go to the afternoon Mass, get up, brush my teeth and make it to the morning Mass! lol My Angels sure know me, Thank the Lord I have them! But seriously, I remember so far as deciding that I would sleep 15 more minutes and go to the afternoon Mass, then the next thing I knew I was sitting up!
Well that was the start of my conversion. I am still converting, I don't think I will ever stop. I will always have more to improve on, and more than likely I will have to retrace my steps because I got of the the path somehow along the way. This I hope against hope I will not have to do very many times, and that is all I can do. I will be praying very hard, Please Pray for me everyone! I need all the help I can get!
Love in Jesus' Name...

Mary's Month

Hello Everyone! So just today, May 3rd, I went to the movies and guess what Movie I saw....."...well you never will so i'll tell you!" (Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice)
Ben Stein's "Expelled; No Intelligence Allowed". It was a very interesting movie to say the least. I thought he was very convincing in almost everything he said. Actually I can't really think of anything I disagree with him about (besides specific religious views I am sure, though it didn't really go into that.) It was a documantery about "Intelligent Designers vs. Darwinists". It was presented from the perspective of those in any teaching or Scientific position who have been persecuted for mentioning "Intelligent Disign" or even the posibility that it could be a theory for the origins of human kind, or life forms of any kind for that matter. I think everyone should take a look at it, and leave a comment on my blog ; )
Here is a link to a youtube version of a movie trailer about it. Check it out!!
Love,

April showers bring May flowers...

So okay, I guess I won't be writing every week, but I will be writing every month as you can see. : ) So, yes, I have some news about this month. My sister is going to be married!!, wow, that's...wow. I guess it is sort of hard for me to digest this because I won't be able to go to her wedding. At least, not if she decides to not be Catholic. So this is very hard for me. I must keep praying for peace in any outcome. And everyone please pray for my family. This will really crack us right down the middle...
On a happier note though, I just visited this great college! It's actually Franciscan University in Ohio. I am so totally excited about this college!! In order to get in I have to work on my ACTs and SATs. I have to score pretty high though so pray for me in that too! lol I know I am just asking for people to pray for me left and right, like most people, I guess it might get sort of annoying if you keep reading this blog because it will be asked of you quite often! : )
I also visited this amazing and holy apparition sight in Ohio too. At this apparition sight Our Lady and Our Lord (Jesus Christ) appear to a woman named Moureen(spelling?). They appear to her quite often (weekly or daily?). Anyway, she gets some pretty amazing messages from The Lord. So my father and I went to the grounds last weekend on Mercy Sunday, because the Lord was giving a public message on Saturday night. Well, most of the messages are public I think, but this appearance was a scheduled appearance from Our Lord. It was pretty amazing. I just cannot explain this sort of thing adequately in words, maybe music could explain it, or maybe a look or a facial expression, but not my poor words. So if any one is interested in exploring studying the appearances, the website is
http://www.holylove.org/
I'll add this link on my blog page I think...

Hope every one checks out Holy Love, and Prays for me!! : )

Day Light Savings Weekend

So, Hi! I think my sister(younger) is the only one who reads my blogs so far...(lol) Although that's OK, because I'm not so proficient about my righting style yet. : )

So I have run into some interesting quotes on my igoogle account. I chose to recieve daily quotes from Benjamin Franklin, Einstein, and a daily literary quote(these would be by random authors, both modern and historic).

Today I wanted to comment on the quote that Einstein privided, it goes as such:

"If I give you a pfennig, you will be one pfennig richer and I'll be one pfennig poorer. But if I give you an idea, you will have a new idea, but I shall still have it, too. "

Isn't that great?! I love that concept, it also goes for things such as Love, and Faith and all those good things of the heart (and mind). I am releaved and made glad by that statement, and I belive that what Einstein said was true, whole-heartedly!

What do you think?

March Happiness

Hello Everyone!
ok, so I know no body has read my blog yet, but I could get surprised! ; )
Anyway, I hope every one is well, I just wanted to say thst this month is pretty emotionally big for me. My sister, who is two years older than me, is moving across the country next week. She is going with another of my older sisters, the oldest in fact, and our older brother. This will be quite a significant change for my younger sister and I! we will be the only girls and young people in the house! I will definitely miss her tons. Also, I am going to visit Franciscan University in Ohio this month, the weekend of Mercy Sunday. I will be in Ohio that weekend any way because of Holy Love Ministry, so my dad asked if I wanted to visit the college then(since we'ld be nearby)
And the week before that, another of my sisters will be visiting from California with her boyfriend!
Busy Busy Busy... Pray for Me!!! : )
