15... WOW...

Yup! Today is my birthday and it's my 15th. I can't believe I'm 15. I know, I know! Most of the time the one having the birthday isn't supposed to be the one saying 'I Can't believe I'm that old!!!'. That is supposed to be your parents, aunts, grandmothers, and (in my case) little sisters. But, hey! Give me a break! I'm going to be driving soon! :0





Speaking of driving! I have had two driving sessions with my driver's ed teacher so far! It's going pretty good! Tomorrow is my 3rd time, so please be praying for me!





I found an AWESOME blog the other day and want to share it with you!

Well, that's all for now! I got to go clean my room and great birthday stuff! ;)

Guess!

I have decided to have some fun! What I'm going to do is, I'm going to get my iPod, put it on Shuffle, and list the first 12 songs that it picks. I will list a few of the lyrics for each song and you guys get to guess what song it is! The one who gets the most correct will be announced in my next post, 10 days from now, on Nov. 11th. OK! Here are the lyrics:



1. A father lived in silence saw his son become a man, there was a distance fell between them because he could not understand that Love isn't Love, until you give it away.

2. I gotta go, I'm 'bout to do a show, can't take the stress, wanna give you my best Lord, can't sing with this hangin' over me, but the show must go on, Lord, set me free.

3. You've got world upon your shoulders - it don't have to be this way, you can't stop your heart from hurtin' - or take the pain away.

4. I come on my knees - to lay down before you, bringing all that I am - longing only to know You .

5. Down the road just a mile or two - lives my little girl name Pearly Blue, 'bout so high and her hair brown - prettiest thing boys in this town.

6. I hear you sayin' that you life is an illusion - there's something missing deep inside, I think you know that there is only one solution - your Fathers waiting for ya' with arms open wide.

7. I've got the lights turned up - back doors locked - bedroom tv's on, doing the only thing that gets me through the nights since you been gone.

8. At last - my love as come along, my lonely days are over - and life is like a song.

9. Oh yes I'm the great pretender - pretending that loves still around, my need is such I pretend too much - I'm lonely but no one can tell.

10. All of my life I've been in hiding - wishing there was someone just like You, now that you're here - now that I've found You.

11. Not a word was heard a the tomb that day - just shuffling soldier's feet as they guarded the grave, one day - two days - threes days had passed - could be that Jesus had breathed his last.

12. My chains are gone - I've been set free, my God my Savior -has ransomed me.

Alright there they are! The lyrics happen at any time in the song. Also, I'm not going to posting comments until November 11th so that nobody can cheat off of anyone. LET IT BEGIN! ;)

Random Pictures that I Took About 1 1/2 Years Ago

OK, I took these pictures about 1 1/2 years ago. Maybe closer to two years... Anyway, I was just flipping through some of my pictures, and saw these. I thought, 'Hey, why not?' and decided to put them on here. I took these with a digi-cam.





OK, this was the top part of the Virginia Tech poster that was in my old room.... I loved my poster.... Hehe...



There's my sweet little bro, Benjamin, sucking his thumb and hangin' with the puppy (who was a puppy then ;) ).


Here is an actual picture of the puppy-turned-dog!






And I took this one a VT. This is the floor...... (HAHA)

NEW DRAMA!!!!!! YES!!!!!!

I and three other girl at my church are doing a drama called Testify to Love. We did this drama at my old church, Cornerstone. I was never actually apart of this drama, but I always thought it looked cool. The video above is close to what we are doing, though there are a few changes. I can't wait to completely learn it and then preform it!

Draw Your Sword

I wrote this almost a year ago, put it in my writing notebook, and pretty much forgot about it. Yesterday, I was going through all of my school work from the whole year an saw it. I thought I would put on my blog to see what others thought about it. Here it is:
Draw Your Sword
By Katie Galyean
The time has come, O Warrior
Draw your sword, show it's might
The time has come, O Warrior
Draw your sword, let it gleam bright
The time has come, O Warrior
Draw your sword, be a knight
The time has come, O Warrior
Draw your sword, fight for the One True Light
So, there it is. Tell me what you think! ;)

Katie's Kreations in the shop


Ta-da! Here is my display at the shop where I sell my jewelry. Isn't it cool??? I really like it!

While I was at Church Camp, the rest of my family was at Music Camp. Mama was the camp photographer and Daddy was the 7, 8, and 9th grade band teacher. Mama has LOTS of photos on her blog of the whole music camp. They are REALLY good! If you would like to see them, go to this web address:

CHURCH CAMP!!!
Well, I just spent about five days at one of the best camps in the WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD!!!! I had so much fun! I woke up everyday at about 7:00 am and breakfast was at 8:30. After breakfast we would go up to the tabernacle and have a morning devotion. After the wonderful devotions, we would go to our electives. My elective was PAINTBALL!!! It was so much fun! The first day I played, I went out there and got shot in the neck. OOPS... scuba diving in Thailand It started bleeding and I had the camp nurse look at it. All she had to do was clean it. After that was lunch and then game time. After games, we went back to the cabins and got cleaned up for church in the evenings. Church is always my favorite part of the day. We have a great worship service! After the service, we had one or two more games and then it was time to go to bed and do the whole thing over again tomorrow! I had a WONDERFUL time and am planning to go back for Virginia Church of God Youth Camp 2010!
