Oh good Lord

I saw this commercial to get a free Bible so I went to
the website to request one. After typing in all of
my information and requesting my free Bible, a notice
pops up and says missionaries will arrive in a few days.
HOLY GOD. I'd like the free Bible and all, thats great!
But missionaries en mi casa? THEY DIDN'T SAY THAT
ON THE COMMERCIAL OR BEFORE I ENTERED MY
ADDRESS AND AGE AND ALL. Can I sue this company
for sending strangers to my house? I know that'd be a sin
to sue a religious, non-profit organization...but they should
warn you that they're sending friggen missionaries to your
house! Remind me to tell my mom not to answer the door
when they come in the next few days. Good lord.


Don't request a Bible through Mormon something
or other. They'll send missionaries to your house.
(it's kind of like soliciting)

What to do?

Last night I had a dream and I KNOW it was from God.
It has to do with my future. I know I can take care of
myself. There are different possibilities as to where I
will take myself in life. I know where I want to go,
what I want to do, and who I want to be...I just don't
know how to get there. I know it will be hard and it
will take a lot of work and dedication and tough skin.
I can handle all of that. What I can't handle is making
the actual decision. I wish I knew how the future would
turn out depending on which way I choose to go. I know
I'm supposed to live in the moment. But what I do know
affects me later on. I need a guardian angel now more
than ever.

I saw God today

So my mom got me a credit card to use for gas and "emergencies."
She let me keep it with me this past week just because it was more
convenient. Well, yesterday after getting my extensions taken out
(YES I DID IT!), My sister and I went to the mall to get Smoothie King.
Then we were walking through stores just looking and at 'Express' I saw
this super cool purse that was $60 and I thought "I can find a cheaper one".
We go through 'New York & Co.' And I see cute purses for $30-$40.Even
better! I said "lets go to Macy's and come back if I don't find anything"
Wellllll...Macy's had Dooney & Burkes and JEnnifer is helpless when
she is put in the same room as designer greatness. So my plastic beauty
paid for my GORGEOUS new Dooney & Burke purse. I was happy but
had that guilty feeling. When I got home my mom went BALISITIC .
As crazy as a mother can get when her daughter spends more money
than she could on her credit card for emergencies only. She gave me
the whole "you don't have a job, you can't support yourself, you know
darn well you shouldn't have spent this much money on just a purse!"


Yeah I don't have a job, but this is where the point of my story is:
I decided I should get a nice little job to pay for my own things and
to save up for when I move out on my own and for school/college/things
like that. Weellll God being the great Lord that he is intervened and I
didn't realize it at first.

Jo Hirlinger wrote on my wall on facebook offering me a job at
her dad's carlot. HOW EASSY IS THAT!? answer phones, 3 hours a night
a few times a week. And the pay is great! That night when I was saying
my prayers and falling asleep, it HIT ME! THE HEAVENLY FATHER I
HOLD FAITH IN WAS THE REASON FOR ALL THIS.

bottom line: I saw God today.

Belittled

Maybe I've been wrong all along.
Maybe I've been living in a fantasy.
Maybe I've failed to see what's right in front of me.
Maybe I've thought too positively.
Maybe I overlooked the small, yet true facts.
Maybe I was too hopeful.
Maybe I haven't been praying hard enough.
Maybe God can't hear me.
Maybe reality is stronger than any dream.
Maybe I set my goals too high.
Maybe I've been too busy dreaming it, not doing it.
Maybe all my dreams will come crushing down.
MAYBE MY MOM IS RIGHT.

Here we go again

What's that saying; Old habits die hard, is that it?
Yeah well if thats it BOY IS IT TRUE. good lord.
I feel like I'm part of the water cycle here.
And the part where I do the habit, yeah that's
precipitation. Then picking myself up and putting
me back together is evaporation. Trying my absolute
hardest to attempt in keeping my changed ways
is condensation and then my mind wins and that
means: when it rains IT POURS. Oh Lord.

I'm just gonna vent here

!@#$%^*($$@ l
sd,vndfmgn sdfjgheafdngkhdjaadfk jghkt dfhsgkadfjghdf
good lord!! I get so maddd at myself when these things
happen. like GOSH JENNIFER don't give in. be mean
not nice. Don't let people take advantage of you. I swear
on my life its so annoying and frustrating. (DONT WORRY
I'LL EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED) It just bugs me that
people only want to do "acting" so they can be rich, or
famous, or meet famous people and what not. GODDDD!
It makes me so mad and frustrated.

So here's the story:
This girl (yes I know her but haven't talked to her since
7th grade) messages me on facebook saying "Do you know
any good agents/websites/locations that are for acting. I want
to get into acting but I don't know EXACTLY how."
DUMB DUMB DUMB. this is the number one way to make me
so frustrated and mad. Like for real!?!?!?!!?
1)it's NOT THAT HARD. EVER HEARD OF GOOGLE!?!
2)We haven't talked in forever you're just using me.
WHY THE HECK DID I REPLY?!?
she doesn't want to do acting. It's not a passion she has.
She wouldn't tolerate the long days, the demanding rehearsals,
the cruelty and rejection of the industry. I KNOW I KNOW IKNOW!
SHE just wants to be famous. She just wants to brag to her friends.
She just wants to say "I live in Hollywood, I do acting, I'm rich,
I know famous people." GAHHHH AMETUER.! (i know its spelt
wrong.) I DONT CARE.

I have put so much into this just to get where I am (which isn't too far).
My parents spent boocoo bucks on acting lessons I've been taking for
a year. 18 HOURS A WEEKEND! I leaarn the businesss and I enjoy it
because it is what I truly love. I left high school so it wouldn't hold me
back from auditions. and guess what I WAS RIGHT AND MADE A GOOD
DECISION WITH THAT. OR ELSE I WOULDNT HAVE AN AGENT OR
HAVE GONE TO ALL THOSE AUDITIONS. OR HAVE GONE TO THOSE
PHOTOSHOOTS TO GET MY HEADSHOTS AND PICTURES TO SEND OUT.
I'm more than dedicated to this. (not that other actors aren't, I'm sure they
can empathize with me) BUT WHY THE HECK DID I REPLY TO HER!?
I SHOULDN'T HAVE SHOULDN'T HAVE SHOULDN'T HAVE! DANGIT!

IT JUST MAKES ME SO MAD. I DEDICATE SO MUCH WORK INTO THIS.
EVERY DAY I PRACTICE EVERY OTHER MONOLOGUE I HAVE MEMORIZED.
YES I HAVE 6 MONOLOGUES MEMORIZED FOR AUDITIONS. this girl
doesn't even know what a monologue is I KID YOU NOT!!. it just makes me
so mad she all of a sudden decides she's going to ask JENNIFER ON FACEBOOK
HOW TO DO ACTING BECAUSE SHE WOULD LOOK SO COOL TO EVERYONE


I'm really sorry for this but I really really really needed to vent. I didn't
really expect anyone to care or read the whole thing. but I didn't want to
go punch a wall or anything (no, I don't need anger management [: thanks)
DOES ANYONE ELSE AGREE WITH ME THOUGH?!?!?!??!

Necessito sus opinones

Sooo, next Friday I have a hair apt to get my extensions moved up
(they're on little beads and as my hair grows out, every so many weeks
I go back and get them moved back up). I've had extensions since
February. I'm thinking it's time for a change. I know my mom put a lot
of money into these but I think I'm ready to part with them. I'm torn
because I feel like they're a big part of my looks and I need them with
my career. (now, how logical or illogical that sounds, I'm not so sure.)
But here's why I want them out:

-They're heavy, especially when I put my hair up. It slides out and hurts
after awhile.

-I feel like I can't do much with them except wavy or straight.

-I can't pull my hair up/back certain ways because you will see the
beads they are on.

-My hair is actually only about 2 inches shorter than the actual extensions
now so its almost as long as them. therefore extensions are pointless now.

-It's just time for a change.

-Time to go back to all natural.



TELL ME YOUR OPINION PLEASEEEE.

I miss my friend..

Let's call this friend Rock. (so you don't know if its a boy or girl, but by the way I talk about Rock, you'll probably be able to figure it out.) It all started in the beginning of 6th grade. I thought Rock was so cool and I really wanted to be Rock's friend. And in 6th grade Rock was in my class so we grew to be very close friends. Rock would come over to my house and we'd have sleepovers and have so much fun. (you probably just figured out Rock's gender...told you.) Anywho, Rock introduced me to cheerleading and we were so so close. We both made the cheerleading squad in 7th grade and that made me feel even closer and more appreciative of Rock. Rock had introduced me to this new passion I had no idea I had or even held talent for. Sure we had a few ups and downs but which close friends don't? Yeah. So anyways, in Jr. High, Rock and I were still friends through cheerleading but we had aquired new friends and different cliques, and circles, to hang around. Of course that was okay. I felt like I could lean onto Rock because Rock was going through some rough things but I looked up to Rock as a solid figure. Once high school came around, we were still friends through cheerleading and even had a class or two together so we still chatted. Then sophomore year we had no classes, no cheerleading, nothing to keep our friendship together. Of course we still said Hi in the hallways and smiled at eachother and talked if we saw eachother after school at friends' lockers, but other than that, Rock and I had lost touch. Then I left school and we only talked virtually and not even real concersations.

Last night I had a dream about Rock, and we were at this weird camp (I'm not sure where, but that's how dreams go.) and I loved that we were really close and really great friends again. It made me miss the days in the past when we were so close. I'm not sure if Rock will read this or not, and even if Rock does, I don't know if they will realize this is directed towards them. Rock you are still in my heart. You will always be. I will always desire your friendship and cherish the amazing moments we had. I love you Rock ,and I always will.
I miss my Rock.

New experience

Am I nervous? OF COURSE
Am I excited? ABSOLUTELY
Am I anxious? A LITTLE BIT
Am I ready? AS MUCH AS I'LL EVER BE
Am I prepared? PROBABLY NOT AS MUCH AS I SHOULD
Am I certain? AM I EVER..?
Am I wishful? EVERYDAY
Am I thinking positively? WITH EVERY THOUGHT
Am I worried? I'LL LEAVE THAT TO MY MOM
Am I hopeful? ALWAYS
Am I holding steady? I'VE NEVER BEEN STEADY
Am I new to this? 100% !!!!!
DO I HOLD FAITH IN THE LORD? EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY DAY

"Dont wanna be torn"

I have a decision to make. It is completely my choice. No one can answer
this for me. It's all on me. So do I say 'Yes' or answer with a firm 'No'...
I wish there was a sign. Something to show me what the right choice
would be. I've considered all of the possibilities of both outcomes.
The negatives aren't enough to overrule the positives. However, I
don't want to regret this. Whether its sooner or later. Regret is what
I am trying to avoid. I know the quote "don't regret anything because
at one point it was what you really wanted." I just don't have
enough faith in myself to make the right choice with nothing bad to follow.

*I found this song. And it says it all. Listen to your heart.*

Maybe its the things I say
Maybe I should think before I speak
But I thought I knew enough to know myself
And do whats right for me

And these walls I'm building now
You used to bring them down
The tears I'm crying out
You used to wipe away


I thought you said it was easy
Listenin' to your heart
I thought you said I'd be ok
So why am I breaking apart?
Don't wanna be torn

Maybe I should choose
Between what I want
And what you think I need

Cause I'll always be your little girl
But even little girls have got to dream
Now it all feels like a fight
You were always on my side
All I need now
Is to make it go away

I thought you said it was easy
Listenin' to your heart
I thought you said I'd be ok
So why am I breaking apart?
Don't wanna be torn

Why is all this so confusing?
Complicated and consuming
Why does all this make me angry?
Wanna go back to being happy

Cause here I'm crying now
Trying to walk away

I thought you said it was easy
Listenin' to your heart
I thought you said I'd be ok
So why am I breaking apart?
Don't wanna be torn

So far so great


Off to the races
I'm going places
Might be a long shot
Not gonna waste it
This is the big break
And it's calling my name
Yeeeaah

So far so great, get with it
At least that's how I see it
Having a dream's just the beginning
So far so great, believe it
Can’t take away this feeling
Taking a ride with chance to my side
Yeah, I can't wait
So far, so great

Might need to wing it
Still gonna bring it
Not gonna sink low
I'm going swimming
Swing for the fences
Sky's not the limit today
Yeeeaah

So far so great, get with it
At least that's how I see it
Having a dream's just the beginning
So far so great, believe it
Can’t take away this feeling
Taking a ride with chance to my side
Yeah, I can't wait
So far, so great

Everyone says don't get your hopes up
Learn the ropes and climb the ladder
I know in the end that just being here is the best
And it only gets better, it only gets better

So far so great, get with it
At least that's how I see it
Having a dream's just the beginning
So far so great, believe it
Can’t take away this feeling
Taking a ride with chance to my side
Yeah, I can't wait
So far, so great
I can't wait
So far so great

Employed!

So today my sister, brother and his friend, and I went to Kings Island
today and it was a blast (although I was there just Thursday with Marci,
Jacbob, and Tim). However the most exciting part was the carride back.
My mom called and asked where we were. I told her we were on our way
home and would be there soon.
Her reply: "Okay, I've got something important
to tell you.
Me:"Tell me now."
Her:"I can't I'll start to cry again."
(Of course I make her tell me right then and there if it's that
important and emotional.)

Turns out:
I GOT THE PART FOR THE PRODUCTION I AUDITIONED FOR THE
A FEW WEEKS AGO.HOLY EFFING MOLY THIS IS A DREAM COME TRUE!

All I have to say is:Thank you Lord God. I couldn't have done this without you.
You work miracles in ways that I can never detect. But I have faith. I had faith
all along this journey. And as this journey carries on I will continue to hold
my faith in you and all my trust and love. Thank you Lord, for EVERYTHING.


"Identical" Ellen Hopkins

This book was incredibly insightful. One word I would use to describe it: EYE OPENING! It's about two twin sisters who struggle with a mother who doesn't care anymore and a father who is abusive (with drugs/alcohol, and sexually). They hide all of their problems from the world. After an accident, their family was never the same. The mom was rarely home and the father was extremely controlling and as you can see, very messed up with life. They have to put on pretty smiling faces to the public because their mom is in politics so everyone knows who they are. The ending was what you would call 'unexpected'! If you ever saw the movie The Uninvited, the endings in that and in this novel are kind of similar in a way or so. I did not see it coming at all! I must say this book was very dear to the heart. I love the way Ellen Hopkins wrote it. I am definately going to read her other books as well!


FAVORITE QUOTE:
"You are my glue. Without you, I'd be nothing but broken pieces."

'Miles to Go' Miley Cyrus

This book was exceptionally good. I think it was so so so soooo inspirational. She really explains her life story well. I admit that I was a little bias against her from what I heard through the media. However, the way she explains things in her book clears things up and tells what truly was going on in her life. And of course, she would know best. I would find amazing quotes throughout the memoir and I wrote my favorite ones down. I honestly think you should go get a copy and read it because it is so inspirational and true to the heart. By the end, I didn't want it to be over.









"You realize you have one life-and you have to live fully for the moments you have. There can't be room for nerves."

"Beauty is the enemy. We try to conquer not feeling beautiful all our lives. It's a battle that can't be won. There's no definition of beauty. The only way to achieve beauty is to feel it from inside without breaking it down into physical attributes."

"The biggest moments of insecurity come when all self confidence is lost and you feel like people are watching and judging. It should be the opposite. You should feel like the people who are watching care about you. This is something we can try to give each other-the feeling that eyes signal support, not disdain."

"Embarrassment is the worst. Its the feeling of having your entire body go numb and not knowing what to do with yourself for that one moment. There's no solution to embarrassment. It happens and you just have to put it behind you."

"Fear is the only obstacle that gets in the way of doing what we love. People are scared to travel, to try new things, to follow their dreams. Fear holds us back from living the lives we were made to live."

"Success is the progressive realization of worthy ideas or goals." -Billy Ray Cyrus

"Well don't be scared of anything. People waste their lives being scared. Lasso the moon. But don't do it because someone tells you its the right idea." -Cyndi Lauper

"Faith is having the strength to trust in something that you can't see with your eyes or prove scientifically. You believe because your heart tells you that's where you should go or who you should be. Your heart tells you what is right."

"If there's one message I have for my fans, it's that you can make your dreams real, but you have to enjoy just being. Make the best of the life you have every day. I can't wait to see what's in the days ahead, but I also don't want to fill them up too fast."

f_ _ _mylife

So this afternoon my mom and I get in an argument
and I decide that it's best for me to leave the house
instead of just lying in my room, sobbing my eyes out.
So I got to the park and bike the 8 mile in record time
(30 minutes). I had suglasses on but I'm pretty sure some
people could still tell I was crying because they would look
at me weird; and I think one lady tried talking to me but
I head headphones in so I couldn't hear. I just kept on
biking. I sat on a bench for, Oh I don't know, half an hour?
I decided to stay out as long as I could. I went up to the
really big hill and sat on a bench there for awhile until some
creepy old guy walking smiled his creepy smile and waved at me,
then I took off faster than you could say RAPEEEEE. I might
just be paranoid, but he wasn't a cute old guy, he was creepy.
I cruised around for a bit realizing I honestly had no where
to go. (and not just because the library was closed. I wouldn't
have gone there anyway because I was a mess and couldn't
pull myself together.) But I decided to come home. Thinking
my mom would be all mad and upset I was gone for so long
and stormed out the way I did, turns out she wasn't even home.
She left shortly after I did to do grocery shopping with my sister.
Psshhh. Me wasting time trying to worry her that I'm gone for
2 hours when she knows I'm never at the park more than 45 minutes.
Oh well, I plan on being locked in my room all tonight and tomorrow.
Except when I sneak out to pee. And when my laptop dies I'll have
to get the charger too.

This is what it's come to (I'm a nerd) aka*bookworm*

My blogs have become laaaaame. this is probably the
most weirdest and most pointless blog you will ever
read. It's my reading list.

-"Miles To Go" Miley Cyrus
-"Identical" ***
-"P.S. I love you" ***
-"True Believer" Nicholas Sparks


***-I don't remember the author off of the top of my
head and I don't really feel like going to look at the
books to determine the author. But if you're really
interested in knowing who the author is I will
gladly find out JUST FOR YOU..quite possibly anyways.

Love this song

I'm counting the days since i began to live without you
I'm covered in rain but it feels just like it's the sun
And it don't get me down, don't come around
You're better off leaving town
I'm partying from now on without you

Hey!
I'm screaming at you
Hey!
Don't care enough to write you a letter now that I'm doing better alone
Hey!
I'm screaming at you
Hey!
Don't care enough to write you a letter now that I'm doing better,
better off without you

You're stuck in a world and make believe that I can see it
I gave it a chance, she must be crazy not to leave
You're never gonna bring me down,
don't come around
You're better off leaving town
I'm partying from now on without you

Hey!
I'm screaming at you
Hey!
Don't care enough to write you a letter now that I'm doing better alone
Hey!
I'm screaming at you
Hey!
Don't care enough to write you a letter now that I'm doing better, better off without you

Giving it up, now you're taking away
All of the time, now get out of my way
Never been lost in anyone, it's me they want
Without you I'm insane
So hear me now, screaming out your name

Hey!
I'm screaming at you
Hey!
Don't care enough to write you a letter now that I'm doing better alone
Hey!
I'm screaming at you
Hey!
Don't care enough to write you a letter now that I'm doing better, better off without you

Better off without you
Cause I'm better off without you

I'm screaming at you
Hey!
Don't care enough to write you a letter now that I'm doing better, better off without you
