No Perfect People Allowed

Perfectionists.  That's the topic for the day, folks.

One of my best friends in the galaxy is a huge perfectionist.  I used to be one too, until I grew out of it....in a way.

Actually...I didn't grow out of being a perfectionist, I just realized that there is no such thing as perfect.  The thing that really got me to believe that was my church.  They have a slogan, and it says "No Perfect People Allowed" (hence the name for this post).  For a long time I strived to be as perfect as physically possible.  I wanted to be perfect for my mom and dad, for my teachers, for my friends and everyone, except myself and God.  I have to admit that when I was younger, I wasn't a strong Christian.  I knew that Jesus loved me, and what Easter Sunday meant, but that personal relationship that I have now was not there.  Now I know that I live for HIM and HIM alone, and that HE is perfect, so I don't have to be.  :)

So this post goes out to all of those who are battling with perfection.  Guess what?  It only exists in ONE person, and it's not you.  It's not me, it's not that girl at school who has perfect hair, perfect makeup, perfect body, it's not the guy at your co-op with the perfect smile, perfect laugh and perfect eyes....
It's Jesus.  Jesus and Jesus alone is the ONLY perfect person to EVER walk the planet.  No one but Him will be perfect, so STOP TRYING.

Now, I must clarify.  I said stop trying....but I mean only to stop trying PERFECT.  Because everyone needs to try their absolute BEST at EVERYTHING they do.  We are to Glorify the Lord through our work, and he deserves nothing but the best!!!  Again, though he wants the best, he wants OUR best, not a generic PERFECT or socially-suggested CORRECT.  God wants our hearts, which are perfect in his eyes.  <3

So to my perfectionist friends, stop focusing on being or writing or making the perfect thing.  Jesus doesn't care if you look perfect, or write perfect stories, or do perfect drawings.  He just wants you to use the gifts He gave you to your full potential.  As long as you do that, you are perfect in his eyes.

Do what you love, and love what you do, and just be yourself.  You don't have anything to prove, except to Jesus Christ, who already knows it all anyway.  ;)

Go out and do your best in EVERYTHING my friends!!!  And remember, no perfect people are allowed. ;)

Hello There!

Hey friends!!! I've been sorta missing in action for a few days....I better explain why.

Well, last weekend was the highlight of my life thus far.  You're welcome to learn all about that awesome fun on mine and the amazing Savanna's blog:  Fangirls on Felucia.  Here's what you'll find out about......THE BEST WEEKEND OF MY LIFE.  :D

Here's a hint.

Now.  I'm working on some more deep and thought provoking posts that have seemingly taken over my blog and I'm okay with that. ;)  I enjoy writing my thoughts and ponderings and ideas.  That's what Blogging is all about.  I hope my latest post (published probably by the weekend if I get a chance to finish writing it) won't disappoint. ;)

Love you all, thank you for everything!!!  Here are a few more links to check out before you go! ;)

Okay, more to come SOON!!! :D

I'm...Alive....*waves little white flag*

I'm not dead!!!!! :D  Hooray!!!  Yay for aliveness!!!

I have to apoligize....things have been crazy...I've been busy with school, Fangirls on Felucia, and more...that I have been neglecting good old To Thine Own Self Be True...;)  Even on her birthday!  :'(

So....

Happy Blogoversary to me!!!!!  It was technically on Friday....but I'm lazy.  XD

Well, onto a real post....
I have quite a few 'real posts' in the works....a bunch of movie reviews....an Avengers fangirl freak out review....and more.  But here I'll just do a little bit of all of that.

First, since I'm fresh out of ideas tonight, I'll just fill you in on my life (since it's all about me....no, I'm just kidding, it's all about Him. <3)  I just decided that I'll add pictures too.  ;) *all pictures are taken by me unless marked otherwise.*

So far....my life has consisted of school.  School is eating me alive it seems. I made a pact with mostly myself but also my parents to get my school work done, on time and to the best of my ability this week, or I suffer the consequences.  Every hour/day/etc. I don't do something is another hour/day/ect. I have without internet.  O.O
Scary, I know. So I better wise up and get my stuff done.....

After school comes Viola.  I am really honestly enjoying my viola.  I love to play, it makes me feel beautiful and confident when I can belt out a note or song really well. :) My teacher has been incredibly supportive and helpful...I learn something important and new every lesson.  It's an amazing feeling.
I've had a concert, and it went well.  I was one of 16 out of 51 people who was actually on time for the call-time.  ;)

This is my favorite picture ever. :D

School and Viola are pretty much all that I've got going for me....other than dance. ;D

I dance once a week, but when I do, I'm at the studio for 5 whole hours.  First I teach classes, and I absolutely love it.  My baby girls are absolutely adorable, and they really like me.  :)  It makes me feel needed and special. Haha!  I co-teach a class with the owner of the studio, and she pays me in free classes.  ;D  WOO!  

My one class that I take for myself is totally horrible and totally amazing for different reasons.  It's amazing because I LOVE my teacher...she's incredible.  She's the dance team teacher, and she works us HARD.  And she's the sweetest, coolest person ever!  :D  

The bad part is the other girls in the class.  Without trying to sound rude or uppity....I'm definitely the oldest one there, and along with my one friend, I'm the most mature.  :P  It's pretty bad....these are 12, 13 year olds who are having break ups, catfights, and gossiping like no tomorrow.  It's disgusting.  They wear NOTHING.  XD Literally.  I always wear pants or at least capri-work-out pants, and a t-shirt to dance, while these girls wear the tightest fitting tank tops imaginable with shorts that look more like underwear than anything.  My head is always aching by the time I leave my class....either that or my ears start to bleed from all the nonsense they speak of...and oh-so-loudly....*rolls eyes*  

I wish so desperately I was taking tap class (i'm taking jazz...the tap is way to late...) Tap is by far my favorite type of dance. ;D

This is my second favorite picture ever!!! :D

What else occupies my time besides Dance, Viola and School?  Well....the internet, of course! :D 

Twitter is a great way to reach me by the way.  :)  I'm constantly on there.  @FallonSkywalker if you need me. ;)

Fangirls on Felucia has occupied a lot of my time.  Without Savanna riding my back to get the posts finished, I probably would turn FOF into this place! *cricket, cricket*

Seriously though, Fangirls on Felucia is running AWESOME.  It's been getting a lot of traffic and feedback, and I am loving every second of it.  Savanna, if and when you read this, I love you, and I'm having a blast working with you!!!!!!  We'll go far!  ;D 

prototype of our banner, made by me xD

Also The Lakehouse Forums....my friends, I know you read this.....I stress many moons over TLF. XD Don't know why really....other than needing to prevent problems and solve problems for people....;) 

And Tumblr!  Ahhhh Tumblr. I love Tumblr actually.  My amazing Tumblr is called JediWithAPurpose and you are more than welcome to visit it.  ;)   http://jediwithapurpose.tumblr.com/ 

I suppose this ends another (slightly pitiful) post on my little blog.....I will be back very soon with more and much better things!  :D

Simple Disney Things

I spent HOURS one night on this epic Tumblr.....Simple Disney Things.  It is so PERFECT.  ;)

I am going to share my favorite pictures and what they mean to me.  :)

More than anything, folks.  More than anything I'd rather be in WDW.  ;)

I can seriously hear the 'announcer voice' in my head saying "And to your new passengers, Aloha and welcome aboard!!!"   *sniffs*  I love that.  Even though the Polynesian ate my iPod, I still have amazing memories there.  ;)

This one rings so true.  When you're in Disney, when that bus approaches, you jump up and down in excitement and can't wait to board the bus.  ;)

"FIVEEEEEE.....FOUURRRRRRR.....THREEEEEEEE.......TWOOOOO.......ONNNNEEEEEE........ONE IN A HALFFFFF....ZERO!!!!!!  DISNEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"  This is a common sound in our car whenever we arrive /finally/ in Disney.  ;)  Then all the girls scream really loud.  ;)

All my Disney classics are on VHS.  I own all the ones in this picture (either I do or Chibi does) so we can only watch them on that.  ;)

We had this last time.  Monorails are incredible.  ;)  Seriously, I love it when we get a monorail car to ourselves, we get to be silly, giggling and cracking jokes the entire time. :D

This is SO TRUE. ;)  The excitement is incredible when you finally get your fastpasses!!!!  :D

I usually don't like fish, but when we get this as a family in Epcot, and then sit over the waters of the Seven Seas Lagoon, it's different.  ;)  In Disney, everything tastes better.  :D

GOODNESS YES!!!!!!  Chibi, Nutmeg and I have all experienced this.  ;)  Vinylmations are the coolest collectible thing out there.  ;)

This is just a sweet little touch that makes your trip all the more 'real'.  ;)  Chibi, Nutmeg and I used to fight over who gets to keep the towels.  Then we were informed (by our parents) that the towels were for us to USE, not play with.  ;)

I think after seeing this picture, I started to cry.  Seriously, Worms-In-Dirt brings back so many memories.  xD  Last weekend I got Worms-In-Dirt for my birthday and we all started giggling and getting excited, just because it made us think of Disney.  ;)

Dole Pineapple Whips are the best possible thing you will ever put into your mouth.  EVER.  Period.  End of story.  My mom used to go to Adventureland JUST FOR THE PINEAPPLE WHIPS!!!!!!  ;)  Now whenever we go to Magic Kingdom, we go get a Pineapple Whip.  ALWAYS.  ;)  That picture is my laptop's wallpaper.  XD

*sighs*  Refillable Mugs how I love you.  ;)  Also memories.  ;)  Trashcan is what Chibi and I call our mish-mash of all the different soda's available in our refill mugs.  ;)  Now when we go to WDW, we just get Trashcan.  ;)

Hehe, we are all guilty of this one.  ;)  Chibi and I used to literally /race/ down the halls when we were little.  ;)

The best feeling in the world.  ;) 

None of us kids can, but my grandparents actually LIKE Beverly.  XD  I just stay away from that one.....LOL!!

I do this.  Nutmeg does this....Chibi and I do this too.  ;)  On our last trip, Chibi and I were up texting all night because we were too excited to sleep.  ;)

I love doing this!!!!!  :D  It's really fun, especially when they wave back.  And when the people in the restaurant next door wave, or a cast member there has a sign that says something funny like, "Do the chicken dance" on one side, but "Have a  magical day" on the other.  ;)

I can sing the whole opening to this show.  ;)  I love it!!!!!  Dissssnneeeeeyyyy Sing A Long..sooonnnngggsss!!!!!!!!  :D

Now that I know more about Gertie the Dinosaur, I want to go back and get ice cream from here again.  ;)  It's been a while, and the last time we were there, the line was REALLY long.  XD

Last trip to Disney, we rode Pirates of the Caribbean SEVEN TIMES in a row with no wait.  ;)  Each time we went under, I looked up at that leg and wondered how much dust that collects.  XDD

Never.  Never ever.  I will always be a Disney girl!!!!!!  :D  I cannot wait until I'm old enough to have my own family to take to Disney World.  ;)

We always go here, even if we've done all the things in there before.  ;)  My mom once worked at Innoventions!  :D  

I started to cry looking at this picture, especially when I saw the PB&J Otter one.  XD  Chibi and I watched all these shows when the episodes were new, and I am not kidding, PB&J Otter was a great show, and we both loved it.  ;)

BA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!  Guilty. ;)  Chibi and I got to walk around Hollywood Studios (by ourselves, eeep!) and we walked down Sunset Boulevard like celebrities.  XD  It was so fun.  ;)

:D  I now love the Lego Store in Downtown Disney, so this little *cough huge cough*  landmark is even more awesome.  :D

We love this!!!!!  The TTA!!!!  Tomorrowland Transit Authority!  :D  It's fun, you get to sit, and we always get squished into one car.  XD  But sometimes we'll ride it without getting off, and we'll do the same thing with the Walt Disney Railroad trains.  ;)

OH MY GOSH.  These books are just EPIC!!!!!!  :D  I am in love with them!!!!!!  I cannot wait for the Fifth book to come out, because I LOOOOVE these books!!!!!!!  :D  They are perfect for any Disney fan!!!!  :)

I think I will always call Hollywood Studios MGM.  ;)  

HAHAA!!!!!  I love love love that!!!!!!!!!  We always quote the monorail for fun. XD  

*sniffs deeply*  Ahhh....new plastic.....new Disney plastic......PVCs....Plastic Very Cutes......;)

WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT???  That's So Raven and Phil of the Future were some of my FAVORITE shows.  ;)

HAHA!!!!  Two foot drop and my mom screams like a little girl.  XD

EEEE POOK-A-LOOZ!!!!!! XDD  I have three of them.  :D  I have a Dale (from Chip and Dale) a Stitch and a Figment Mini-Pook-a-Looz!  :D

*Sigh*  We do this too.  ;)  Chibi especially is known to fall asleep on the bus or monorail.  ;)

Okay, so this one is personal.  ;)  I LOVE the At-At outside of Star Tours.  ;)  It makes me feel so.....Star Wars-y.  XD

SO CUTE.  I saw them interact with each other last trip to Magic Kingdom, and I was squealing like a fangirl.  XD  They are just ADORABLE together!!!!!!  :D

Okay, I see that picture and I automatically know the smell.  ;)  I just.....I don't know, I can just smell it in my head.  XD

BA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!  Hey mom, doesn't that look yummy?????  ;)  *inside joke, sorry* ;)

:DDDDDDD  I seriously quoted that part of the ride in school last week. :D  I love it!!!!!  :D

Best part of this picture.....the two kids playing with the lightsaber making stuff are GIRLS.  <3

*sigh*  Each time we go to the hotel, they say "Welcome Home!", and it's so true.  My home is in Walt DIsney World.  ;)  Someday I want to work there, just so I can visit the property all the time!!!!  XD  I know everyone says it's less fun working there than visiting, but I think of it as.....making the magic happen.  ;) 

That's all for now folks, thanks for the comments on my mom's post, she's very excited.  XDD
