Sometimes I'm serious, sometimes I speak fluent sarcasm, sometimes I'm strange, and sometimes you will have no idea what I'm talking about.... but its all good, because I probably don't know what I'm talking about either...

Bom Biddy Bom Biddy Biddy Biddy Bom
BOM BOM BOM!
There are times in life when the man gets you down.
"Tragedy's alright when it means we count the blessings in our life."
I love this song because it inspires me to look at the positive things in life. Count your blessings when you're feeling down. When tragedy strikes be sure to lean on God and the christians around you. We should all be thankful for those around us that lift up our mood and make us laugh when we're crying. I've always appreciated those who can do that. Make the most of a situation that's a total downer.
Let out your sorrows. Write a song. Write a poem. Get it ALL out. Everything you're feeling. Move on. Keep moving forward.
I love you all. Don't forget it.
Love,
Cecelia "Blessed" Melody

My lovelies.
My Epiphone J200 is my baby. I love it like the French love surrender. I've written about 12 songs on it. Some are lengthy and some are just a verse long. When I see my guitar on its stand in when I walk in my room I just want to pick it up and jam.
My sturdy green 4g iPod nano. I actually love having an ipod with limited room for songs. It forces me to evaluate which songs to delete every time I get a new CD. I get rid of stuff I never listen to. It makes putting my iPod on shuffle more satisfying.
I just recently (as in two days ago) got the t-mobile mytouch. It was my dads phone, but he went back to his G1. He didn't like the fact that my phone doesn't have a full keyboard. The keyboard is digital and he says his fingers are too big to use it. Needless to say... I scored in this deal.
Love,

Perfection is My Enemy
I finally felt like writing. I don't have anything specific to say, just chatting it up. I totally failed at doing Mate Mondays. I'll try to pick it back up this week.
You know those moments in time where you think.... Woah. I'm here. Right now. In this place.
In those moments I like to question what I'm doing with my life.
What am I doing with my life?
I think I'm searching.
Searching for things that are right in front of me.
I think I'm avoiding.
Avoiding simple tasks.
I think I'm challenging.
Challenging my faith with all my doubts.
I think I'm breaking down.
Breaking down old barriers I've put up to guard myself.
I think I'm growing.
Growing up.
That came out more "poetic-y" than I meant it to. In fact, in the beginning I wasn't even going to answer the question. Just leave it open ended.
I don't even know what I'm talking about. That's okay. It's healthy not to know what you're talking about every once in a while. That is a nice change.
Change.
I don't like it. I never have. Yet, things are changing all around me. My friends are growing up and I feel as though I'm getting younger with time. More naive. It's a strange concept. Not foreign though. I don't think I'm making sense.
Making sense.
Must we always have an end to our means? a means to our end? Whatever the saying is, I don't think we should. If that doesn't make sense nothing ever will.
Nothing ever will.
Nothing will ever be perfect until the world is made new. Only God is perfect. That's it. There is no perfect relationship. Perfection is my enemy.
Enemy.
Are there any left that haven't kissed the enemy? Threw in a little Switchfoot reference there. It's an interesting concept. Kissing the enemy. Horrible... but interesting. It is kind of like playing with fire. Dangerous and stupid.
Stupid.
Lots of things are stupid. Bracelets that are itchy... stupid! You know what is also stupid? Living by yourself. Atleast for me, that sounds stupid. I would never want to live alone. I'd atleast have to have a pet with me. Some form of constant communication that reveals that I'm not alone.
Alone.
I hate being alone. Every once in a while is okay... but I never particularly like it. If I could I would be with a friend at any particular time.
Time.
Time freaks me out. It's constantly passing. Constantly. Right.... now. And. Now. Crazy, right? Just think about it. Since Adam and Eve time has been rolling by ever so sneakily. It ticks life away. I almost broke out into a Linkin Park song right there.
Right there.
GAH! Some things seem so close. Like they are RIGHT THERE. Yet when I try to reach them or work on them they are so NOT close to being done. Like my story for instance. I feel like I should be wrapping it up... but no. Alas, I am way behind.
Behind.
My cat Lucy has a big behind. I love my kitties. They bring me joy. I woke up one morning and realized I was using Lucy as a pillow. She didn't seem to mind at all.
Alright. I'm done with the starting with the last word of each section. So, I'm listening to music I used to be into. AKA N*SYNC and Backstreet Boys. I used to love me some boy bands back in the day. Some of their stuff isn't half bad. The harmonies are pretty stellar.
Okay. Yeah. Whatever. Uh huh. Sure.
This blog is getting long.
I'll cut it off here.
Until next time,

Dentist Trauma
This is why I hate the dentist:
I felt the worst pain in my life at the dentist chair and he yelled at my when I started to cry:
"You are eighteen! You are crying like a baby! You need your mom and dad to be with you next time? Bring them next time!"
"Now can I finish my work? Or do you want a temporary filling?" He storms away and I ask how long the temporary filling lasts. "I DON'T KNOW!"
"Suck it up, I need to finish."
I hate my dentist. I'm not even going to hide it. I'm never going back there again. Worst dentist experience of my life. I'm STILL crying.

Long Time No See
You really want to know whats going on in my head? Fine. Read on.
My cereal is getting soggy. Ahh I need to go to the bathroom. Be right back. Nevermind I'll wait until I finish this post. How long will it be? My cat better not barf on the computer... again. I wish someone was awake to talk to. I wonder if I'll go to church tomorrow. I should probably do my homework. It is due tomorrow. My fingers are aching from the cold. These all sound like completely random thoughts. Girl's minds are like spaghetti. Guy's minds are like waffles. LEGGO MY EGGO! I should say that to a guy some day. Or a girl... about a guy. haha. Funny funny. I cleaned the catboxes earlier. My cereal is really soggy. Should I eat it? I'll try a bite. Ewww. Mental note.. never do that again. I ate the rest of the cereal anyway. I didn't want to turn on the garbage disposal. I love my guitar. If I was a guy... I'd call my guitar a "GUY"tar.. BAHAHAHA! Okay, I really gotta go potty. BRB False alarm. I'll wait until I have to go later. I love ultimate-guitar and YouTube. My cats are hissing at eachother.
and that was a couple minutes in the mind of Cece!
For more information call 1-800-I'm-Outta-My-Mind
No, I don't know how to dial a '.
Only three hours until I get ready for church...
I should really sleep now... but I can't.
Sucky situation.
I think I'll type up a song or two tomorrow for all yall who still read this thing.
toodles,
Cecelia "OuttaMyMind" Melody

A Work in Progress (Rough Draft)
An anchor thrown in the ocean
My only purpose, more than emotion
The depth of my soul is out of hand
They misunderstand
I'm a work in progress
An infant in this falling world
A victorious bride in eternity
My vision twisted and swirled
Slowly I tangle my tounge
I trip over my broken heart
Everything I never could see
Laid out in front of me
I'm a work in progress
An infant in this falling world
A victorious bride in eternity
My vision twisted and swirled
Together they blossom
Deeper still the harmony sounds
Threaded infinitely together so it seems
The King receiving crowns
I'm a masterpiece
My heart whole and sincere
A victorious bride in eternity
My vision perfect and clear
My only purpose, more than emotion
The depth of my soul is out of hand
They misunderstand
I'm a work in progress
An infant in this falling world
A victorious bride in eternity
My vision twisted and swirled
Slowly I tangle my tounge
I trip over my broken heart
Everything I never could see
Laid out in front of me
I'm a work in progress
An infant in this falling world
A victorious bride in eternity
My vision twisted and swirled
Together they blossom
Deeper still the harmony sounds
Threaded infinitely together so it seems
The King receiving crowns
I'm a masterpiece
My heart whole and sincere
A victorious bride in eternity
My vision perfect and clear

Where You Are
All I need is to be where You are
Everything I need is right where You are
Everything I see is brightly lighted with Your glory
my heart rejoices when I'm in Your presence
Give me all I need to get through the day
Everything I need, my heart is Yours to stay
Help me to grow from a seed to a blossoming flower
Help me to conquer my fears, of whom you'll devour
All I need is to be where You are
Everything I need is right where You are
Everything I see is brightly lighted with Your glory
my heart rejoices when I'm in Your presence
Anything and everything
Everything and anything
All of my heart and all of creation cry out for You
I'll start
bringing others to Your feet
I'll start
renewing my cringing heart
I'll start
loving you with all that I am
Your love is all I need
Everything I need is right where You are
Everything I see is brightly lighted with Your glory
my heart rejoices when I'm in Your presence
Give me all I need to get through the day
Everything I need, my heart is Yours to stay
Help me to grow from a seed to a blossoming flower
Help me to conquer my fears, of whom you'll devour

Grampie
Many of you may know that my Grampie passed away this January. He was a good man and I wanted to share with you guys something he wrote to his dying sister.
This just shows you the type of man he was.
Congrats for getting to the end.
I love you Grampie. I'll be seeing you.

I know of your disbelief about a future beyond this existence, but I do know for certainty in my own mind that it is for real, big time. When you look at the calendar to check the date, the date itself is a constant reminder of a Man whose presence on this earth over 2.000 years ago split all of time as we know it into two periods, the time before His coming and the time after His coming. A.D. is the Latin term for "In the year of our Lord," and the Lord referred to is Jesus Christ. He said unequivocally that He is King, and that His kingdom is not of this world, and that anyone who accepted Him would never see death but rather spend an eternity of happieness, joy and bliss in His Father's kingdom.
In Aramaic, the language of Christ spoke and which was used for the first 3 or 4 centuries in the Christian Church, the Aramaic word for "death" was "moot," which translated means, "not here, in another place." The death of the body in this life is simply leaving this body we have been living in behind and going through the fates of death to "another place." Our spirit is who we really are, and it is that which continues on to the "Promised Land" for those who love God and find their way through the merits of His son, Jesus Christ.
Faith is an outright gift of God to all who will accept it. We can do nothing to earn it; it is ours for the asking. Once we accept it and repent, all or our transgressions are forgiven and forgotten by a merciful and loving God who does not want to see even one of His creatures lost for all Eternity. Jesus took all the sins of all mankind, past, present and future upon Himself as He allowed Himself to be cruelly crucified on the cross at Calvary. Yet, even in His agony, with His dying breath He asked His Father to forgive those who crucified Him saying that they did not know what they were doing. He really died for the sins of all, and that includes both you and me. He paid the price for our salvation and all we have to do is claim it. He said that no one who believed in Him would ever perish, and if you can't trust the words of Jesus Christ you can't trust anyone in the universe, period.
In closing, I am going to pray to our heavenly Father to send you an angel to be by your side constantly to take you by the hand so you don't get lost on your journey to the next place. This angel will be there to comfort you and counsel you as things continue to occur in your final days here. I asked God to send an angel to my brother-in-law, Russell in his final days and he told Annie when she came to visit him, shortly before he died that just before she got there, he reached out from his bef to an outstretched hand which held his hand for a short time, but when he popped his eyes open there was no one viible in the room. When I saw Russell the next day, I said to him, "Has the angel showed up yet or told ou his name?" He looked up at me with a very peaceful expression on his face. This was only a day or two before he "went to another place." Annie can verify Russell's feeling a hand take his shortly before she got there. I hope I have helped you rethink your situation from another perspective, Shirl, and again, Barbara and I and our entire family wish the very best for you.
This just shows you the type of man he was.

I love you Grampie. I'll be seeing you.

I feel like writing a blog right now.
25 days until my birthday! I can't believe it. I feel like I just turned 15. Now its two years later and I'm two years older. I don't know what I would say if I spoke to my 15 year old self. I mean, wouldn't that be strange? Would you tell yourself to change anything? Are you really okay with everything thats happened to you for the past two years of your life?
Anyways.
A certain show premieres tonight. I'm super excited. If you want to know the extent of my excitment you should click "Caspian" on my blog links :).
I'm eating Honey Nut Cheerios and they're delicious. PS If you eat with a small spoon it lasts longer
I'm reading Luke right now and its pretty fascinating to put all the stories together. I love it.
Isn't it crazy how time flies? I feel like I was 13 just yesterday.
Besides that, I had a tye dye adventure with my friend Ian yesterday.
Check it out!

Legacy
Just more insights on what I'm working on. The character who says this is a wordy fellow who attempts to confuse you with his speech. He is usually not very successful, but most of the time he has a pretty good moral behind his monologues.
Other than that... I've been feeling really well these past couple of days. I'm enjoying life and making the most out of what God has placed in it. I had a really productive day. I'm really stoked for these next couple of months. :D I have a lot going on.
Random 10 things you should know about me:
1) If you say goodbye to me at church while I'm playing 9-square you probably won't get an answer. I am not ignoring you, I just have my head in the game... (getcha getcha head in the... ahh nevermind)
2) I like living in my own little world. I excape into my stories and write about things I think should happen in real life. Mostly adventurous fantasy stuff. Wouldn't it be rad if those kind of adventures really happened?
3) I love to sing. I know I'm not the best singer, but I really enjoy doing it. If I had the appropriate talent I would sing full time anywhere anyhow. :)
4) I LOVE the Disney Channel. Its clean entertainment and I love it. Don't judge me.
5) I like reading my friends blogs because it gives me insight on what goes on in their pretty little heads
6) I have a lot of siblings. In short: 5 sisters, 1 brother, 4 step and 2 maybes
7) I love living for God. I feel my best when I'm in his will. He is the way the truth and the life <3
8) I really enjoy getting to pick peoples brains. I love getting to know people for who they truly are. I love hearing what they really have to say. I'd love for you to talk with me about anything.
9) I tend to nickname people without them knowing it. I call people that in my head, but usually not out loud. haha
10) I'm a chocolate junkie. Period.
An adventure may be found in the strictest of places. You see, if one is looking in adventurous places for adventures how will all the really adventurous adventures be found? Indeed those who find themselves observing the corners of an office or the middle of an orange grove will embed themselves into the adventurous adventures waiting. Do not be overcome by the ambition to find an adventure. The most splendid adventures occur to the unexpected peoples who make an art of simple acts of kindness. Therefore be adventurous in your unadventurous activities and a truly wonderful adventure will await you.

A Sweet Dream
So lately I've felt overcome with doubts about God and who He is and if He is really with me. I've felt drowned with doubts and asking myself, "am I really good enough for God to live in me?"
Then I had a dream.
I'm sitting. All I can see are my hands laying face up on my knees. Suddenly a feeling overcomes me. A feeling that cannot be described easily. It felt like all the power of God was thrust into me. It felt like warmth and love. It felt like all the peace in the world flowed into me. All around me a yellowish light glowed, especially around my hands. I felt pressure on my hands and God told me
"I am with you"
I cannot describe what this dream means to me. Just know I feel much better.
God is with me, and what could be better than that?
Love,
Cecelia "Never Alone" Melody
