Choir

For those of you who don't know, i am in choir :D Most of you probably know that though. However, none of you know that i will not be at choir this week :( See i'm going to go check out Oklahoma (and yes i sang the song from the musical to spell that) Christian. the reason i tell you this is because i'd love some prayers for guidance and wisdom. I'm trying to figure out where i'm to go next year and what i'm supposed to be doing. the college that i was going to go to (and may still) doesn't have the degree i want to do. Therefore, i hope that God either lets me fall in LOVE with Ok. Christian, or that when i get there i know it's not for me.
Well that's the update on my life right now.

Superchic[k]

Recently i've started really getting back into Christian music and want to start telling y'all when i find a great song!
Here's a good one. We Live by Superchic[k]. If you are allowed to get on Youtube, go check this link out. Listen to the lyrics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCxZvD_wZ6I
The following are the lyrics that really touch me:
"Waking up to another dark morning
People are mourning
The weather in life outside is storming
But what would it take for the clouds to break
For us to realize each day is a gift somehow, someway
So get our heads up out of the darkness
And spark this new mindset and start to live life cuz it ain't gone yet"
