I do.

First, let's clear the title up quick. I am not getting married. Frankly, I'm way too young (both legally and...me wanting to :P). Heck, I'm not even the age where I'm frantically looking for a relationship.

No, I'm talking about Ben Breedlove.

First off, if you don't know who I'imi talking about--or have heard the name but don't know who he is---the best way to explain is for you to watch the videos. They explain themselves. The videos only 7 minutes, and it's worth watching.
Part one.
Part two.

After I'm assuming you watched it...you might get my title now. At the  end, he asks if you believe and writes "I do." Now, if you're on facebook you can go to Ben Breedlove's numerous "Like" pages and see man "I do." posts on them. If you didn't know better you'd assume it was like a wedding page...heh. Sorry that's lame.

Anyways, let's get to my point. All Ben wanted was to be normal, but he lived his life to the fullest. He cheated death three times, not many can say that. But finally, his time had come. On Christmas...coincidence much?

It's sad how people don't realize the true meaning of Christmas. Yes, I'm on my brand new laptop. (:D) But really, people forget that "Jesus is the Reason for the Christmas Season." And being with your family and friends is what Christmas is about. Keep Christ in Christmas. "Live the Cause.": I went to a church event a while back and that was the message. THE Cause--spreading the Word and love of Christ.

When I was in 5th grade, my classmate died. Yikes, that was a scary class meeting. We had grown apart a little, but she was still a pretty good friend. The last time I remember talking to her--before her week or two off of the flu which turned into a rare diabetes-related attack--she had told me her parents were being divorced. I just remember her trying to make the best of it, being optimistic.
"Well, I'll get double Christmas presents." Her name was Kailey.

We all got braclets with her name in her memory, and I still wear mine. I remember her funeral. When I saw her...the first tears broke through my shock.

I could go on and on, but my point is life is spontaneous. Some are good, family memories. Some might be tragic news you were not expecting. Live life to the fullest. Don't waste time being mad. Replace love, not hate. Help others. Shine your light in the darkness. Cherish the time you have. Spread your love to those who don't have it.
And most importantly....Live the Cause.

RIP Ben.
RIP Kailey.
I do. <3

______________ (Helping feels good)

Like my title? My creative wheels refuse to spin tonight.
It's FRIDAY! FRIDAY! Gettin' down on...
Sorry, I couldn't resist. Ah, Rebecca has become a legend in our sad world where we get entertainment and blow our sparse allowance all on backward robes and rubber bands that shape.
I know this is really random (I was looking through my friend's blogs and noticed something about a "bookline" --pun for skyline /)_-) and realized, how many books on our shelves have we actually read? We collect them and stuff, but theres a good amount I have that I haven't touched yet. I keep telling myself I'll get around to it, but I never really have...
*sigh*
ANYWAYS, how about dem....
...
^^Shows how clueless I am in  sports. I don't even know a team that's doing well at the moment.^^
I might watch The Help tonight...oh the joy of a quick $1 (well, isn't it $1.20 now?) for a movie. Redbox <3
OH! I know what I can meantion...today we had our final assembly for a charity I will not name. We raised about 8500 dollars (just us 8th graders) and bought presents and bikes and ad kitchen sets and mini basketball hoops for 17 of these little needy 3 and 4 year olds. Pretty darn good considering we hae 2 months and nothing but a hundred or so 8th graders in certain classes. The teacher who started this for her classes has done it for a good amount of years now, and we were the highest ever (by 20 bucks). It was so cute, watching the kids sing "We wiss ysou a merry Christtsmass!" And at the beginning a little kid came up to lead us in the Pledge and heres how he did it:
"I pwedge allgience, to de flag..."
"I don't know these words."
It was so cute!
And after school we had our first read-through/rehersal for our 8th grade musical: Suessical the Musical!
I did it when i was 1st grade, a jungle creature and a fish. I was too short to be a Who:/ Now I'm a Who, though. Ha!
Yeah. It's pretty fun music.
I'm kinda tired of writing.
" A snowman came to life, that would be creeeepppy...santa clause snuck in my house...that would be creeeepy. It's really weird, its like a fake beard!" I don't like Fred that much, but I love that song. It's catching. (it was just on Nick)
Watch it, not even kidding.
