There have been a lot of bands releasing new CDs lately. I thought I would give you guys some insight to the ones that have spent a lot of time in my CD player, well I guess more accurately I should say the ones that have been played on my iPod. Continue reading
We’ve been talking about vision, purpose, and destiny lately in church, and it’s made me think about why a lot of people, even Christians, don’t do what God wants them to do. We know we’ll be happier, more fulfilled, and more successful when we follow the plans that God has for our lives, so why don’t we do it? I think a big reason is that we don’t know what God has for us.

This semester is going to be interesting.
I’m taking 3D-Design, Film History Since 1940, Logic, and Screenwriting.
I also have been given the amazing opportunity to intern at Trailblazer Studios which does a ton of post-production (editing and the likes).
Why do I tell you this?
Because it’s all about stories! Continue reading
This past weekend I went to the WinterJam tour. The band line up seemed pretty good so we got a group together from Charisma Church and went. The event way exceeded my expectations. I don’t own any of Skillet’s CDs but they put on an amazing live show so I may have to pick up a couple of them. Peter Furler was there and played mostly old Newsboys songs. One of the songs Furler played was I Am Free. Continue reading
I have a secret to tell you guys. You would be amazed how much cleaner your room looks if you just put up your laundry. I know it seems simple, but it’s so true. There is a random tidbit for you to take with you and use however you want. It has nothing to do with this blog, it is like a bonus thrown in at the beginning. Continue reading
I recently watched a PSA video called “Dear 16-year-old me” about preventing melanoma. I liked the idea of giving advice to your younger self. Although I know that 16-year-old me would never be able to read this, I thought maybe you would enjoy, and maybe benefit from, hearing what I would tell the 16-year-old Erica. Continue reading
Unless you live a charmed life of playing all day, eating bon bons (what are those, anyway?), and magically always being healthy, happy, and loved by everyone, you’ve probably noticed that in life, sometimes you just have to do things you don’t want to do. Or you have to not do things you do want to do.
That’s where the art of sucking it up comes in. Continue reading
It has finally started getting cold in North Carolina, but like usual we didn’t get much of a fall. I am not a fan of that, because fall is one of my favorite times of the year. We usually just go straight from summer to winter.
So, I like school.
Shocker, I know. But I do…I find it interesting to learn new things and ideas. I’m pretty much up for learning anything – provided that the teacher is good (although biology, history, and geography are not my strong points…but that’s a topic for later discussion). Continue reading
Fall is back, which means football is back, which means in theory I should be happy. However being a fan of the Miami Dolphins and the NC State Wolfpack, that is not always the case. But hopefully this season will be different! With football season back it also means fantasy football is back. If you have never played fantasy football… good, keep it that way! For those of you who do play fantasy, you know the added stress it can add to your life. Continue reading
