so, i'm kinda tired of my user name, and seeing as how i created this account in high school, i figured that it was high time i move on to bigger and better things.
so...
my new blog name is plain and simple: valerie
easy enough to remember, right?
Yeah, life throws you curves
But you learned to swerve
Me I swung and I missed
And the next thing ya know
I'm reminiscin' dreaming old dreams
Wishing old wishes
Like you would be back again
I wake up in tear drops
They fall down like rain
Guess not much has changed
Punch the clock
Head for home
Check the phone, just incase
Go to bed
Dream of you
That's what I'm doing these days
Jesus, I pray
Take all my mistakes
Throw them away
Destroy them for my sake
Jesus, I call out 'cause I'm sorry
Because I fall so short of your glory
To the best of my ability
I'm practicing humility
And I lay myself before
'Cause less is more
I pour out myself
All that I am
You love me so much
That you fill me again
And may these words on my heart, on my lips
Somehow mean so much more than this
Jesus, I pray
Know what I'm trying to say
Jesus, I plead
Please purify me
Make my heart clean
Drench me with your mercy
Jesus, I pray
I love you, I need you
For the rest of my days
I swear I will seek you
To the best of my ability
I'm practicing humility
And I lay myself before
'Cause less is more.

What started out as a harmless night playing pictionary somehow went bad...
After our LONG game of pictionary FINALLY ended, we went our separate ways and since it was getting late, some of the girls left.
As usual, Matt and Steve are being stupid and introduce to the girls their “butt busting” game and follow it up with a demonstration.
Matt then challenges the girls while Steve pulls out the video camera. When it was my turn I gave it my all (which probably wasn’t a good idea) and I went down hard on the floor and hurt my left knee pretty bad. I was a good sport and kept on playing.
After Matt challenged all the girls, it was time for the girls to go head to head. By this time we’d wised up and put Matt’s mattress on the floor to help “cushion” our falls; which for me, didn't help one bit because i NEVER fell on it!! I was the last person to go and when I did, apparently it was the funniest fall of the whole night.
When we’re done with our fun, we sit down to watch the tape and of course, when it gets to me we ended up watching my fall over and over again, while everyone points and laughs. Although embarrassing, it was EXTREMLY funny. It’s a shame none of you were able to see me at my prime...
Maybe next time we play (if we do) I’ll be better...
