Your Grace is Enough--Chris Tomlin

Tomorrow begins Lent, and even though I'm a Protestant, I've decided to participate in Lent this year. Apparently, (according to my Catholic friends) you're supposed to give up one of your vices and also do something that will bring you closer to God. For the first part, I've decided to give up lying and generally be nicer to people. I guess lying isn't my biggest problem but it's still beneficial to fix it, which means that I will be honest for the next 40 days. :P Being nicer will actually be harder, believe it or not, because sometimes people do annoying things that make me want to hit them, but I will have to refrain from doing that. And it'll also be hard to be nice to Cindy. It's worth a try. Anyways, I'm also going to read my Bible daily, which will strengthen my relationship with God. Hopefully, I'll continue this even after Lent and get through the Bible by the end of the summer (unlikely).

[: I'm also excited for tomorrow because I'm missing school for a GOAL field trip to the American Eagle headquarters. Yay, it's always fun to miss school. AND THEN we're getting back at 12 and I'm taking the AMC test. [: 2 hours of extreme math problems...yayyyy. And then I have Chemathon practice after school (which is going to basically consume my life between now and April) which equals 1.5 hours of Chemistry experiments. :P I feel super nerdy.

Tribute
This is a tribute to my amazing parents, who often say things that make my day.

Texts

From Dad after I forgot to text/call for a day: "Lost and find connie yuan. Female. 17. Last time found at wei yuan house. Since then, we lost contact"

From Mom: "How are you going today. We miss you. Dad said your group was wired. Connie maybe was kidnapped. You know your dad himself is wired. Mom. [I think she meant "weird" [: This was after my dad dropped me off at camp and saw the mob and was freaked out.]

From Mom after I forgot to text again (oops): "Bad pang pang [fatty--my parents' nickname for me]. You lost again."
