David, Stress and Dating.

Sooooo, David Archuleta did not win American Idol.

oh well.

he's still amazing, its so funny, cuz he's so modest and humble about everything it makes me laugh. hahaha!

Okay, this weekend has been so stressful. i think i'll actually be okay with being away for two weeks. i mean i think i'll like the quiet, i mean i know they say the training i have to go through is more like boot camp, and most everyone who goes ends up crying by the end of the week because it's so stressful trying to learn your lessons and getting like 5 hours of sleep per night, but i don't care..i'd rather cry over somthing like that than things that are stressful at home. and i know God will help me through it..

Oh, and i'm getting a cell phone sometime this coming week. i will miss my friends terribly, it says to leave cell phones at home, but the director said i could bring one along to call my parents..but scary thing is, i'd rather not call them..or some of my so called "friends." i'd rather call my true friends..the friends who get me through life..those are my real friends. and i know it, i just can't admit it.

Pray for me, pray that God gives me strength to get through this all.

Although on the bright side, at least i have those true friends, who won't let me down.

..i feel that drama is ahead.

I hate drama, why do people have to cause so much?

I have so many girls i teach, so many who are worried about boys, and getting dates.

Why get so worried about it, i mean you don't need a boyfriend, life is complicated enough, find out who you are, get through your teen years, travel, have fun, live it up..then date. It would be so much eaiser.

Yeah i know, who am i? a 15 year old writing this, mmm yeah..i'm young but i have experience in that area.

Where do the children and teens get all this stuff? the tv, radio, school, everywhere saying "it's okay to date..You're only young once"

yeah, but when you date at a young age..you don't know about life..you're so blinded by everything and you haven't even found out who you are yet.

and now you're asking, "well you're only 15, why are you telling other people this??"

Believe me, i'm going to follow this myself..boys cause too much on an already busy life.

School, housework, jobs, friends, family, God, finding yourself, having fun, drama. and so much more.

Get all those things down..then when you're ready. Date.

Boys cause way too much drama, and heartache. Believe me, you don't want heartbreak.

it will follow you for the rest of your life, for the younger ones who are reading this.

Joshua Harris' book 'i kissed dating goodbye' is my favorite book, it has been for the past few years. and each time i read it, i find somthing more.

"When God says no to somthing, it's because he's saying yes to somthing better" -Joshua Harris

Think about it.

Okay, now i'm done rambling on now and letting my feelings out.

but i just thought i would share. thanks for reading, and also thanks for those who are praying for me!
