Meh...
My mom's doing better now and I have a little brother named Clark Allan. I'm sorry all but in my last post I was scared. The doctors said if it wasnt for the doctor's appointment my mommy had earlier that day then there may have been a death...

The church competition turned out prejudice and unfair as always. It annoyed me so I talked to my youth pastor's mother about how it shouldnt be a competition and it should be an encouraging learning experience with no trophies and no ribbons and guess what. She stands up before the awards were handed out and said "Well if you dont get a ribbon today that's alright because this isnt really a competition, it's just that the person with the better talent wins." Tell me, did I miss the memo that said that a competition doesnt measure who is more talented? Oh and my church members were yelling at me all day but what else is new...

My competition results:
Drawing: 2nd, judge scores: 100, 86, 91 (The 1st musta been close to me because the judges talked like it was hard to decide)

Singing: 3rd, judge scores: 92, 78, 60 (no, the last one is not a mistake...it was a PREACHER of a church who said they'd beat us no matter what. He gave a girl from his church that didnt do as well as I did higher just because of the church she goes to, hence the prejudice info in my statement earlier)

Human video: 2nd (We spent all of our time on our group song, which never works out well, and threw this together, I was suprised we got that)

Group song: 3rd (....I'm not even gonna start I'm just gonna say that it's a total miracle we even placed)

Well if anything this has made me the talk of the church. I used to be the "shadow" who always looked down, was the outcast, and only loved by the small children of the church. Now I'm being asked to do art for people, sing with the worship team (4 people arent a choir so...), act in all the church plays, and help teach the children more. This is making the people who knew me before this happy I dont feel so "lonely" as they think I look and the people who've picked on me there mad as heck (because before they were the big families in the church but now that the preacher's family and the other families notice me they cant do much without me saying something to someone and getting THEM isolated...although I'd never do that cause I'd never wish the time I had in the past years on anoyone)

I'm getting noticed a lot in other places too...do you guys think that I'm becomming popular or something? Dear god, I hope not... By the way, I have a special thank you for AnimaStrider for giving me the great advice and I'm sorry for losing my head on ya. *hugs*
