SHELLROCK!

So for all of you who are curious about how my blind date went... What can I say - except that I really embarrassed myself the WHOLE time that we were out... I was super-duper nervous, and wasn't sure how to act... it was funny though. It was a good night out. Went to Tim Hortons for coffee (there were 4 of us who went, me & gavin (my date) and my friend samantha and her boyfriend) We sat around laughing, drinking coffee, and just being really silly. We really got to know eachother. No... I'm not dating him! We are just friends, and thats all it will ever be. But the cool thing is, I made a new super cool friend. I'm happy about that... OH and my hair... I STILL LOVE IT!!! When I went and got it cut yesterday they took 4 inches off... and the coolest thing is, they have this stuff you can put in to your hair to make it straight - so you don't have to go out and buy a super expensive hair straightner... which I'm very excited about. I love it soooo much! (my mom ...

Spent the day with my best friend... got my hair done - cut and straightend... its soooooo soft! I absolutely LOVE it! :) plus the woman who cut my hair is amazing! and at this spa place they like spend a good 15min on washing your hair and just giving you a massage. it was FANTASTIC! something that I really needed... enjoy the pictures!

so since daryl and i broke up at the end of may my mom has been trying to hook me up with this guy... he's 29 and I have been told - from a friend of mine who is also working with my mom to try and get us together, that he is super nice, funny, and really super shy. So, my friend and her boyfriend, this guy that I am meeting and I are going on a double date tonight. I'm kinda really nervous and yet super excited to meet him and see what he is like, see what sort of stuff he is interested in and most of all to see where he stand with spiritual stuff. I'm not sure if he is a Christian or not, but tonight will be a night of exploring and talking and getting to know one another. Wish me luck. I haven't dated, or even really hung out with a guy since daryl and I broke up. So this is a step for me... a stretching experience. Anyways he is going to be here to pick me up at 8:15pm tonight to go for coffee. So I guess I better be off and get a few things done around the house be...

its been a while since I have gone out on a saturday night! never did anything spetacular, just went over to my friends new place that her and her boyfriend moved in to - its great! watched a bit of tv, joked around and just hung out and chatted, which we haven't done in a long time. I've sort of cut myself off from the world in a sense, sort of spending time with just "me" to grasp a hold of whats going on in my life... taking a deep breath and living my life from moment to moment, rather then living day by day, week by week, or month by month. Its a moment by moment thing right now... I was continually reminded today of how much people love me... It was said to me all through out the day. My best friend kept telling me it today all at work, how she appreciates me and loves me and how she just wouldn't know what to do if i wasn't working there for her, and with her... it made me feel so appreciated and wanted. Not that i am thinking of doing anything dumb, or...

currently listening to: Justin Timberlake - Losing My Way. Well I'm really ready to go to bed. But I wanted to quickly write before I head off for the night. Today was an alright day for me... worked from 11-7pm then went to band practice, which we didn't actually have. We all just sat there and prayed for one another and talked about worship and how worship comes from our heart and we are to worship in spirit and truth. And when our hearts aren't right before God then how are we to stand (sing, play piano, guitar) or sit (drum) when our hearts aren't right before our loving savior. This spoke to me a bit. I mean, sometimes there are days where i feel as if I am just so disconnected. But honestly, I don't know if its because of the Meds I am on, or if its because I have allowed myself get so wrapped up in this world and have lost my focus on my relationship with God. The thing for me is this... I love God with my heart. I see Him through this time in my life looking...

I have honestly been wanting to write something on here for a while now. Something would happen during the day, either really good - or bad, and i'd want to share it, but when I got home - the last thing that I've been wanting to do is blog about it all, because often these days my thoughts have been going a thousand miles a minute... and i have just been feeling so overwhelmed too. So overall, its just so hard to blog about everything all at once. Maybe in time I will... but for now, I'll keep everyone posted on how life goes, what i'm up to, and all that kinda stuff. but for now - this is it for tonight. blog soon, Michelle
