I really don't know what to title this. I have so many thoughts swirling in my head that my head is all jumbled. I have a lot of things hitting me right now.
For one,tonight was the lasst class ever of CYT and next monday is showcase. After that its my last performances ever and all too soon Aladdin will be ever.
I love my job, but with everything changing so rapidly it seems quite impossible that I'm "an adult" of nearly 19.
Things with Michael are interesting.We've been talking a lot lately even though he is no longer in CYT. I'm interested where they are going to go.
I've been having some interesting dreams that have made it impossible to sleep and I get cranky when I get tired. So that's not helping my abbility to think. Uggg..Last week I was making some dumb mistakes at work.Thank goodness Dawn is a patient woman.
I feel like I'm being pulled in all directions. I've having a hard time focusing on what I know I need to.I know I have something big coming that is requiring me to step up and give everything inside me I have and I'm not sure I'll be up to the task. I know God can handle anything but I'm scared I'm not up to the challenge.I know I'm letting my fear get the best of me. But there has been some stuff going on this week that has me questioning some stuff and reopening wounds I thought were gone. I don't want to lose it and fall to pieces again but maybe I need to just so God can intervien and pick up my Pieces and put them back together better than ever.
As you cna tell I have tons on my mind right now....UGH! I hate college life right now!

The 1st Sign of Fall...
October 1st!!! Ahhh!!! I seriously feel like I just thawed out from the ice storm last December, and here we are almost to the end of the year.*sigh*. I think I blinked too much this year or slept it away or something. It's been so busy I just can't keep up with the days.Ugh! Oh well.
Ok.Change of mind.I do have something to ramble about. On Saturday it was my great-grandma Ola's 90th birthday. It had been so long since she has seen me, and I have grown and changed so much, she didn't even recognize me.That hurt a little bit to think I've spent such small amounts of time with her in my life. I can't even imagine what it must to be like to have 90 years of knowledge.The change she has seen and everything she has been through.The great depression, both world wars, and so on. The literal change of the country as it hit the new millennium. What it would be like to sit with her for hours and hear story after story of growing up in the 20's, and 30's. She was born in 1918.All the music I love,swing, and oldies, to have been there and possibily gone to see those groups in their prime and the dance of the day was swing. I can't imagine what it was like. She's a very Godly lady and her most precious thing to her, is her faith. To be that old, and to have seen so many miracles from God...Wow..It blows my mind, then it makes me think that much more how awesome God is and it blows my mind even more.
Also on SAturday, I saw my Aunt Mary. Last time I saw her I was in Elemtentry.She saw me and came up to me,"My goodness! It's my lil baseball buddy!...My oh my..You're all grown up now!" See before my Uncle Jack died from cancer, every 4th of July every one gathered at my Aunt Mary's and Uncle Jack's ranch.They had a swimming pool, a volley ball net set up, horses, & a huge field of the guys to shoot off fireworks for everybodyand; of course TONS OF FOOD!...Me..I usually went for the cookies first.;-) haha!
Some times the guys would put on a lil rodeo show for us. I'll never forget one year they did some bull wrestling.I thought they were gonna get gorged by the horns for sure.But no one got hurt. Any way.Being the youngest of the family I was too small to particpate in anything. In volley ball I always got in the way and got trampled.Horses, I could ride if I had someone walking beside me, and the rest..Well...Kinda obvious. So my sister and I would take champaigne poppers and decorate the trees with them,go swimming, the drag out the baseball stuff. My Aunt Mary would pitch to us and we would play with her as long as she was up for. Then after Uncle Jack died, all that changed. Last time I was over there,Aunt Mary was so worn out from dealing with everything she didn't want to play baseball with me. Seeing her and everyone brought back memories I haven't thought of in a while. They were the best times ever. What I would give to have one more 4th of July at Aunt Mary's. It was over before I could really appreciate what I had in my family. Anywho. I told Aunt Mary we'd drive out and see her sometime and she said,"If you're busy go for it,girl!" she meant it all in love telling me to do what I wanted and needed to do,but its something I really want to do. I hate living here with no family near...So what am I going to do when I move away for college!?!?! Just a question I have been pondering this whole week.
Always,
Megan

A lil Update.
I'm pretty happy right now.My theatre class got canceled this morning.I love my theatre class,its super easy and fun,but I got the morning off.Yay! It was nice to have some time to relax for a bit.:) Monday's are usually my"busy" day so it was a super nice surprise.
Honestly I didn't want class this morning.This past friday one of the guys in my theatre class came in high on some kind of drug.Don't know what,but something.Everyone knew it,including Proffesor Staggs.So yeah. It slightly creeped me out. I've never seen someone high.He wasn't threatening in any way,but he looked so...pathetic. I felt sorry for him.In college,with a chance to make something of himself and he was throwing it away.
Ok.Happy note.Aladdin is going great!This is gonna be a great play.I can not wait for it.Yet I cna cause this is my last play.
This weekend was my friend Danielle's birthday.My sis and I had a fun time at the party.We had a lil bonfire going and the guys were having fun experimenting with fireworks.Yeah...Thats boys for ya.lol!They put a blue smokebomb in the fire and it turned the flames green.That was cool.
In 2 weeks Broadway Across America is coming to Kansas City and performing The Lion King.A group of CYTers are going.Its gonna be a BLAST! Next spring they'll be back through with Phantom Of The Opera.That's one I really want to see!!! Well that's my rambling for now.lol!

Believer. A song I wrote.
Hey guys.
Believer-The Story.
This is a song I wrote for one of my best friends.She is an amazing person with some great artist skills. :) She wanted to get her art out there and do something with her life.This guy she's with doesn't think much of her art or her dream. The song is pretty self explanatory. This past week she got her dream.She is receiving the opportunity to get her art work out there.So right now she is working away and awaiting the ruling on what happens next. If this pulls through she could totally turn everything around. I'm so proud she made it this far.This is all she needs. Her clear shot. So I wrote this song for her. Please let me know what you think.
BELIEVER by Meg Renee
She was a day dreamer,
plotter and a scheamer.
She had a weakness that wouldn't let her leave.
He held her on the edge of being able to believe.
He told her,"You'll never go."
"You won't do it,I know."
You're spinning your wheels girl
It'll break your heart to give it a whirl.
Stop believing,start realizin', no way
So come on and stay
You'll never go.
He told her no.
CHORUS
She is waiting to fly
Thinking life is passing her by
She's worth nothing at all.
Always feeling 2 inches tall.
Never knowing how loved she is.
She'll be surprised,not even knowing
Behind her disquise lies a Believer.
She struggled to be free
From the thoughts that controled her life.
From everyone who doubted and said,
"We're right,you'll see."
"Stop dreaming,save it for nights!"
CHORUS
She cried herself to sleep
Wondering how she could keep the faith
Not even sure if she'd survive tomorrow
Happiness had a way of turning into sorrow.
Not even sure if she believed anymore
She'd been beatin worse then ever before.
CHORUS
One day that dream came true
Tears and work finall paid through
Now everyone is believeing too.
She's no longer waiting to fly
She knows life isn't passing her by.
She worth's something after all
Now feeling 10 feet tall.
Knows how loved she is.
Everyone's surprised because behind her disguise was...
Someone read to fly
Passing the world by
Living today,believing in miracles
Ready to leave,
cause she's a
Believer!
If you're gonna steal, steal a heart. If you're gonna cheat, cheat death.If you're gonna fall,fall in love.If you're gonna dream, dream big! If you're gonna live,live today.If you're gonna forget,forget mistakes.
LOVE,LIVE,LAUGH!
Always!

The First Week Of College.
Hey!
This week was the 1st week of college. I love my theater and math teacher.They are both pretty cool.My English class in online o I haven't met her yet. lol. However. This week I have a theater test to study for on Wednesday and a paper due for English on Tuesday. *groan*
The math course is different. We go to class 2 days a week,but the actual work is done on a online site called, "Aleks." When my mom had to use the Aleks program for school, & she hated it. They have improved it quite a bit since then. (that was about 3 years ago.) So math is just something I have to get on and work on everyday for about an hour. I don't have to, but if I do that I could complete the entire 3 part basic math in one semester instead of 2 or 3. They said it can be done,it just takes a lot of time. To pass this semester you have to have atleast 40 hours total. You get about 3 hours in class every week. So if you put atleast 6-7 hours a week that will be more then plenty. I would really like to get it ALL done this semester. I have until December 12th or so till classes are done.
HAPPY NEWS! Aladdin auditions went well and I am a shopkeeper. :) I am happy I will have a small part in the play.I'm looking forward to the costumes to be honest. lol! I bet they are going to be bright and colorful! Tuesday is the first day of rehearsal. Woohoo!
I will try to update once a week.Between 3 classes at the college,CYT, and other stuff I know I will be swamped. Love you all!

Some people think I'm suicidal...& I think they're right...
HAHA! Ok... Strange title for this one. This one is a brief update on my summer. I did the rip cord at World's of Fun. For those of you out side the KC area World's of Fun is an amusement park. Not as good as SDC but that's my oppinion. Well anywho. They have this thng called the rip cord were they put you in a harness and pull you up about 50 some feet in the air and let ya go! You swing back and forth like a pengalim untill you slow down enough for you grab a rope to stop yourself.It's a BLAST!!!!!! I got a video of it and going to have to have my computer-wiz friend help me put it on you tube! HEHE! (my computer will play it but it won't let me download it so I need help with that.)
This guy got fancy with his video,but this is what it is. >>>>>
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsV85FT9bUU
Fun thing is..MY MOM did it with me! I was screaming YEEEHHHAAAWWWW through a lot of my ride. HA! It was the funnest thing I ever did in my life! I haven't been a complete dare devil but when I get the chance,I take it! :D Like doing the zip line, rock wall, and the blob at camp a few years back, falling to my "death" in Snow White,sword fighting, etc. I pretty much decided I'm addicted to thrills. lol!
Wow this was ashort post. haha. But it's been such a great summer. My parents both had weird work schedules so it was a tad hard to do too much together but doing weekend stuff when we were able to helped a lot. Over all a very good summer. I hope this fall goes just as well. If I don;t write before next week,a week from Tuesday is auditions for Aladdin! Wish me luck! My last CYT play. I tend to go out with a bang. :) hehe. Love you all. Later!
Live life smiling at the sun, rather than frowning at the shadows.

CYT Footloose Camp
Wow wow wow wow wow wow wow..So much happened. God moved this week.Even in Kansas City at "theater" camp it just goes to prove where ever you are,if you are willing,God will use. I wrote over thirty pages in my journal during the week.I have so much happen to me and those around me. Some pretty amazing times.For sure! Things I learned this week.
Serious stuff.
Dancing by myself to my own beat is okay.
I function better when I'm on set schedule and get my quiet time with God in EVERYDAY!
Some of the people who relate to you the most are the last you suspect.
It takes 30 seconds to find out everything about somebody in a conversation.
That there are more people who have plastered smiles then we care to admit.
Legalism versus Grace and Grace always wins. Second chances truly are for everybody.
I'm not the only one dealing with certain things.
God can use the worse things to help someone else in pain.
Inside Jokes
Oranges,Lemons,and Limes!
The Joker was found saying,"Wanna see a magic trick?" in the "Blueman Video"
"Mer-MAN,Blueman!"
Guys can upstage girls anyday...Especially when it's a "girls only song".

Monday auditions went fairly well.I did do a singing audition for it even though I knew ?I wouldn't get a part.I did it for another singing experience.Did okay I suppose. Not much happened on Monday.We started rehearsing right away.2 hour rehearsal that night.
Tuesday we had our schedule in full swing. Breakfast,morning devotions,rehearsal,lunch,free time,rehearsal,dinner,night activity,night worship,late night free time, lights out and in bed at midnight.By Tuesday I was starting to get to know my 2 other room mates better.Stephanie, 14 and Olivia 16. We usually found something interesting and fun to talk about.We all had brought a CD player and CDs so when we were in our room together we would be rocking out to music. Doing that through the week was a memorable part of it.
Wednesday-the middle day always seems to be the most tiring part of the week.But it's also one of the most fun.Wednesday is the dance night.We usually have a swing dance but this week cause it was a 80 themed week it was a 80 themed night.Everyone dressed up like they were from the 80's. haha. I had bangle bracelets,gloves, etc. At first I was just kinda bopping to the music not really sure what to do.My friends weren't dancing that much and I didn't have anyone to dance with.
Then I prayed,"God, I don't want to be here all night feeling sorry for myself that I don't have a guy to dance with.I've been dancing solo for 18 years.Just me and my girls.It's always been that way, and I'm okay wit that.But I see all these couples dancing and no on is asking me to dance.God,please help me to have a great time and remind me that it's okay to dance to my own beat and by myself...Wait. I'm not alone. I have YOU, and I have my girls...." Then Celebration came on. That was one song I was not sitting out on. So I got up and started dancing not caring.My friends joined me and we had a great time.The rest of the night I was rocking it out with my girls dancing away to just about every song. It was a great night!
Thursday-We had some very long rehearsals. I was so tired by the end of Thursday.Thursday night we filmed our team movies. I was blue team and we had fantasy. Purple was murder mystery, teal was soap opera, and yellow was reality tv. Our was so funny! I could not wait to watch it the next night on Movie Night.Everyone was being top secret about their movie cause everyone wanted theirs to be a surprise.lol.
Friday-Again some crazy rehearsal time.We probably had over 6 hours.But since we had a schedule all week we were getting use to it and weren't as tired on Friday. We had our movie night and every one's movie was so funny! Ours was kind lame but it was fun to film. :) Friday night worship is always a cry fest since its the last night. After worship we sat in a circle and talked about different things we learned at camp and what a great week it was.
Saturday-We got up early and got our rooms organized and cleaned.Stephanie,Olivia and I took our sweet time getting the room done.I was ready to go home,but I wasn't ready to leave my friends. We ran through the show once before leaving for the church where we would hold the performance.We got to the church and ran through the show again and before we knew it, it was time to get dressed and ready for the show. Before the show I was dying to see who all had come from my family, and what other CYTers had come but of course,we weren't allowed to. Sarah Colwell & I were going crazy with boredom.aaaaaahhhhhh.... But the show finally started and we gave it all we had.We were all so hyper you could feel the energy pouring from the stage.
After the show I walked out to the audience and I was instantly tackled by Sarah Reiser. :) She's such a cute lil thing. I love her so much! Then I found my parents and talked to my grandparents before they had to leave. After that I was free to roam around and see who I could find.I got tackled a lot that night. lol. Cause it wasn't long before my friend Shawnie found me and yelled, "MEG!!!" Before rushing over to give me a hug. :) I miss her tons. She's such a good friend and I hadn't seen her since June. Her brother Cole was with her and he told us he had seen 'Footloose' the musical live about 50 times, and he was so impressed with us that we had less than week and that we nailed it! Cole and Shawnie are good friends. :) After I was done talking with them I saw someone to my right that looked like Michael,but told myself it was wishful thinking. Cause one of the guys at camp,Kirk, looked a lot like Michael, and when I saw him from across the room the first time I thought it was Michael. Well I turned all the way toward him and it was him. :) I walked over to say hey to him and he saw me coming and smiled. I was able to talk to him for a lil bit.That was nice surprise. I hadn't seen very many CYTers all summer. We decided to go to IHOP for dinner and lil did we know that is where all the CYTers had deicded to go for dinner as well. HA! It was great. A nice way to end one of the best weeks of my life! I learned so much and was able to spend a lot of time with God. It was so cool!
Well that's all for now. Love you all!
It's okay to have confindence to speak up.It's alright to have the courage to stand out from the crowd. It's fine to dance to your own beat. Just know you are never truly alone with God beside you.
Always,
Megan Renee

After the show I walked out to the audience and I was instantly tackled by Sarah Reiser. :) She's such a cute lil thing. I love her so much! Then I found my parents and talked to my grandparents before they had to leave. After that I was free to roam around and see who I could find.I got tackled a lot that night. lol. Cause it wasn't long before my friend Shawnie found me and yelled, "MEG!!!" Before rushing over to give me a hug. :) I miss her tons. She's such a good friend and I hadn't seen her since June. Her brother Cole was with her and he told us he had seen 'Footloose' the musical live about 50 times, and he was so impressed with us that we had less than week and that we nailed it! Cole and Shawnie are good friends. :) After I was done talking with them I saw someone to my right that looked like Michael,but told myself it was wishful thinking. Cause one of the guys at camp,Kirk, looked a lot like Michael, and when I saw him from across the room the first time I thought it was Michael. Well I turned all the way toward him and it was him. :) I walked over to say hey to him and he saw me coming and smiled. I was able to talk to him for a lil bit.That was nice surprise. I hadn't seen very many CYTers all summer. We decided to go to IHOP for dinner and lil did we know that is where all the CYTers had deicded to go for dinner as well. HA! It was great. A nice way to end one of the best weeks of my life! I learned so much and was able to spend a lot of time with God. It was so cool!
Well that's all for now. Love you all!
It's okay to have confindence to speak up.It's alright to have the courage to stand out from the crowd. It's fine to dance to your own beat. Just know you are never truly alone with God beside you.
Always,
