I’LL BE SIGHNING AUTOGRAFTS LATER!

Move out of the way, Britany Spears, The Beatles, and Jennifer Aniston! I am officially famous! Last week I was discovered! Kassi, Megan, Kristin, Trace, Jenna, and I went to a filming of a “Mercy Me unplugged" like thing. It was a pilot to a new station for like CMT (I can’t think of any other TV station because no one actually plays music any more) but plays 24/7 Christian music. So anyway, it was really cool. There was rep. on Belmont’s campus asking people if they would like to be involved and so we got to go. It was at the "W" in Franklin. There were around 70 people and we all sat down and then the very producer-like man (wearing his faded Diesel jeans with loafers and a blue floral button up shirt and a coordinating sweater-vest) moved the audience around for "aesthetic" purposes. They move us up to the very front (of course because he was in awe of our ravishing beauty!). I got to sit on one of the two couches that were in the studio. Seriously, if I stretched my leg out I could knock over the lead singer’s microphone stand. They were practically singing to me. To bad I have only heard one song of there’s EVER! I only knew that really over played one, "If I could only Imagine". It was a really cool experience anyway. The band members were all really nice and between takes they would go around and talk to all of us! It was cool too see a band up-close like that and really see that they love the Lord. I don’t really listen to Christian music because, one, I was over exposed when I was young listening to much Sandy Patti and Amy Grant with my mom, and secondly, I got the impression that all Christian music was shallow and fake! I am learning that it is not “across the board” true. Seeing Mercy Me genuinely sing for the Lord kinda suggested a different point of view on the subject.
Anyway, sorry I haven’t updated in like a month! Life is very busy with classes and stuff. God has been teaching me a lot lately. Mr. Sciacca said that in college you should come to a point where you unpack your “suitcase of life”- everything that you have been taught and given from your parents, church, school, and friends and lay it all out, and you pick what you want to call your own. That is where I am. I want God the really flesh out thing in my life. How does living like an “alien” look like when I am in statistics class and how does suffering really look like in everyday stuff and if God has truly called my a daughter, how will that effect my relationships? I want so badly for my head knowledge and theology to transfer to my heart and life! So any way you can keep me in your prayers! I love and miss yall!
