Hey Family and Friends,
Well...the time has now come as I sadly knew it would. I have finished my first play production. I have to say I am really sad about it too. Today we had the cast party. It was a lot of fun, and I enjoyed it...but at the same time it has been really sad. All this has taken up so much of my life though..so in a way I really do need a break. But all I can think about is how that will effect my friendships I have created from this play. But sometimes, I have to stop..take a deep breath and decide that I should trust that God knows what he's doing...sometimes I just have some hard times trusting him and I need to work on that. I am really going to miss it..and I think this next week..starting tonight is going to be really hard. I am afraid that missing these people will soon get in the way of school work. So please pray that I can not only trust God more...but that I can also have a mostly stress free week and relax a bit. I mean....I need some relaxation. :) Thank you all for supporting and praying for me until now. It has ment so much to me and I have needed it! There has been so many times that i was just like..there is no way I am getting on stage. And then I would ask for prayer. Well...guess what? I always got myself on stage eventually. :) It is amazing how the power of God can be so effective. :) Well I think it's about time to be heading to bed. I have a long week ahead of me. Thank you all for your love and support. Please keep praying, I'm going to need it! :) God Bless!

I'll miss them.....
Hey Family and Friends,
It is amazing to think that when I woke up this morning I would never have guessed that so much would happen. Never in my life. Today was amazing on so many levels. i got to hang out with my buddies from the play and it was a day I will never, and should never forget. Hours were spend just hanging out, having fun and acting goofy. It was incredible. I have to say when I thought I would miss everyone before....I had no idea...tonight when I said I would miss them...I was certain of it. I like to think I have grown to love my cast in a way. I mean we spend 15 to 18 hours per week with them...and now after tomorrow that is all going to be gone. it's actually all very sad. But hanging out all day really helped make it not so sad. Sure...the emotional good-byes at the end of the day were sad and kinda hard to handle. But hey...what does not kill me will make me stronger. Right? :) Tomorrow we have the cast party. I' looking forward to it..it is going to be so much fun but sad at the same time. All I know is I miss these people already. I think you never know how much you care about someone until you are faced with having to say goodbye. Then you all the sudden realize how much you really cared. Hopefully...this will not be a goodbye forever. Hopefully..it's just a "See you later" kinda goodbye. We can all hope. Have an amazing night everyone, thanks for all the support. God Bless!

8 down, 1 more to go!
Hello Family and Friends,
It is amazing to think that we have now finished 8 out of 9 performances. Tomorrow is it-the last performance. It will be sad, and I will miss it. There has been so many memories that I have had from this play, so many people I have met and overall the time of my life being apart of this play. :) It's going to be a sad cast party...but I'm willing to try it. Tonight's performance actually went well. No major mistakes happened(that I was apart of anyway) and no one fell of stage. In my book, that's a success. lol, no..really. Everything actually did go really well. There is a kind of thrill you get when going on stage..and it is a once in a lifetime experience I am so glad I got to feel. I will have to do another performance sometime.
The other day I found a quote that I just had to share. I realized that it applies to the play so much.

“If you really love something set it free. If it comes back it’s yours, if not it wasn’t meant to be.”
This is so true! Sometimes you have to set what or who you love free...and in my case it's the play. Although this has been the experience of a lifetime...sometimes you have to let go so God can continue to work in your life. :) Please continue to pray for me, as I'm going to need it for the days ahead. God Bless and good night!

Only with God...
Hello Family and Friends,
One thing I have easily figured out, is in order to survive these last few days with the play...God is going to have to help me. Tonight everything really did not go too well. The cast was stressed out, (I don't blame them)the first practice at this new place did not go as well as planned. We only had one practice here before the performance tomorrow(or today..it's like 1:30) Sometimes the simple things can easily seem hopeless sometimes. But I think when we get to those points..you have to stop and think.."Look..I have gotten all this far because of the fact that God was helping me along the way." Sure...it can be scary sometimes. Sure...I can feel like leaving and never coming back...but sometimes you have to place your hands in the air and say, "God..I have no idea how this is going to turn out...but however it does..I trust it's all in your plan." Once you do that everything gets better. If only it were that easy. It can be annoying to have lots of things changed on you at the last minute. In fact, the night before we have a performance there....all this stuff is getting changed! What shocks me, is they still expect an amazing performance too lol, well...only with God is anything amazing going to happen out there tomorrow. So wish me luck at I tackle School..and another performance all in the course of tomorrow. :) God Bless!

7 down, 2 more to go!
Hey Family and Friends,
Thank you all so much for your prayer. I have now gotten through 7 out of the 9 performances, the hardest part of all this is over! Now I just have to make it through 2 more performances and the cast party and I'm golden! :) My favorite part of all these performances is what it has gotten me over so many of my fears. I remember barley wanting to be on stage and being afraid of it, and now I love being on stage in front of people, of course I still get some stage fright though. It is amazing how far God has brought me on this journey with the play. I know it is going to be hard to leave everyone at the cast party...but I figure if God has gotten me this far, he can do anything! Please continue to keep me in your prayers, I will continue to keep you all updated. God Bless!
