I almost forgot!

I forgot to share in my last post that I HAVE OFFICIALLY BEEN ACCEPTED INTO HILLSONG INTERNATIONAL LEADERSHIP COLLEGE!
yyyyayyyy!!!im so pumped!
i found out like, 2 weeks ago.
so i am officially going to go to live in Sydney, Australia  for a year in July for Bible college! I'm over joyed to see what God has in store for me there and what he's going to do in my life! Without him, this opportunity wouldn't be available, and without him, i definately wouldn't be doing this, because I'm doing it for Him!

When time and space are through, I'll be found in You.

I never know what to title these things.

so life has been pretty low key lately. I still haven't figured out how my life can be both low key and CRAZY all at the same time. It's not so much crazy but i think i just have a crazy-busy scheduled life of low-key events. yes,that is it.
Anyway, homecoming(and when i say homecoming, i am referring to the entire week long extravaganza surrounding the matter.) went very well! It was lots of fun, especially the show! It encompassed me yelling A LOT(dumb interact, you guys...y'all really know how to get on one's nerves.), moving a ton of stuff(and therefor getting lots of bumps,scrapes,and bruises), singing, dancing, running around like a chicken with my head cut off, dance parties backstage,and everything else you can possibly imagine. the homecoming football game was quite boring, and the dance was okay. I'm not much for dancing and such that high schoolers call dancing:a.k.a-the only thing stopping you from getting pregnant is your jeans! BUT, we had an Alto 2 sleepover at my house afterwards, and it was so much fun! I love those girls : )
Also, I made LMEA All State SATB choir! I'm so excited! It's gonna be great! Going to 2nd round try outs was really fun too- I rode down to Pineville with my awesome friend Ryan Taylor and his dad, Mr.Jeff. I totally fist pumped it out :) AANNDD i got to see my kid's camp friend JoAnna Waite at Johnny Carino's! Much of the all state music is extremely hard and it's quite intimidating.

Abby, Kaylea, and I are doing a  21 day fast. I can't fast food because of health conditions,but i am doing no technology(unless entirely necessary) after 9 pm. AND i am posting Philippians 4:8 EVERYWHERE.
          "Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."
Anything that does not agree with this scripture, i will have no part of. So if I turn on the t.v, and there is trash that doesn't agree with God's word, whether I like the show or not, I turn it off. If i turn on a c.d or radio station that places something opposing to this scripture:something impure, something that promotes false thinking, something unrighteous-I proceed to turn it off. It has done wonders for my thought processes during the day and for my quite times at night.

Far Too Long have we been more concerned with entertainment than the conditions of our minds.
Far Too Long have we partaken in damnable things.

"because we're seniors, that's why!"

 yes, the title is basically me and Cailtin McCarty's response to basically everything here lately...and it's so much fun! To bad high school waited to get good until this year! but I've found it to be true that things are much more fun when you make them fun or funny yourself! I'm actually being all high school student-like for the first time in my high school career! so, 10 things i've learned in my senior year:

1.Pep rallies are much more fun when you at least fake some school spirit. 
2.Football games are more fun with friends while sitting in the crazy student section. 
3.Running down to the field after the game screaming/singing the alma mater that I don't even know all the words to is well worth all the turf in your shoes because it's just funny.
4. Staying for bible study on Wednesdays is BEYOND worth getting home late.
5. Monday morning prayer and FCS on Tuesdays is certainly worth waking up early for! 
6. Complementing everything/ everyone in sight makes Mondays  a lot better! (so join me in making Mondays Compliment Monday!)
7.Inspirational Fridays are great and make Fridays even more fun! It's a quite simple thing to do that will brighten you and your friends' day: tell everyone how cool and awesome they are at everything all day long. and poof!instant happy day! it gets pretty funny as well! :) 
8. There is NEVER a bad time for some awesome Jesus conversations!
9.The only way to pass Pre-Calculus is to either find an awesome friend who has an inkling of what on earth is going on or go in waaayyy to early in the morning for tutoring.yuck. 
10. 10 Second dance parties are so much fun, and are quite hysterical to both do and watch!

anyways, i find out in like, 3 weeks whether i made it into Hillsong International Leadership College or not!i sent in my application like 2 weeks ago! i feel OLD! i shouldn't filling out college applications!whats up with that?


In other news, Homecoming is in like 2 weeks. I feel as if i should go because it's my last chance to, but I still have no idea if i even want to go,much less who with.I dont really care either way about any of it, ha ha. I was in Fire In Salem's new music video, which was SO much fun to shoot, and I'm going to be in a book trailer for Leslie Lamb's book "Kiss, Bang, Boom" tomorrow, so that should be fun as well! And i LOVE my "job"
 i have this year:picking up Lake, Mia, and Noah from school and then keeping Lake everyday. Those kids are awesome :)


and that is the not-so-exciting life of Kaitlyn Wheat.
