Look what I found!!!!!

 If you love singing and music as much as I do ,you probably get curious as to whether a singer is soprano or alto or what!  By chance I found this  a list of female singers and  their  voice types.  Now, you may disagree with some of them but, I highly doubt it. It is an awesome list and I was so happy to find it !!!!

The Awesomest thing in the whole world

Is Music. When asked what my favorite music genre is I can't answer 'cause I love all kinds!
I am pretty sure my absolute favorite is pop. All my favorite singers are pop singers: Demi Lovato , Taylor Swift, Avril Lavaigne, Kelly Clarkson, this list could probably go on. :D



I also like classical music: Beethoven , Vivialdi, Strauss ! Perfect music to dance to with siblings. And parents if they like to groove out with their kids. ;D
I also like Christian music especially : Newsboys , Sons of Korah , and Casting Crowns.
I also like some heavy metal but not a lot. I like all types of music rap , punk, hip- hop etc. I'll listen to any music as long as it has good lyrics and good music. Music awakens all my entire body, mind and soul, my ears, my heart is fed and nurtured , my mind is soothed , my body moves all over even now as I type listening to Demi Lovato's song "Party" my fingers and feet are dancing. And my head is bobbing to the rhythm.

If someone was to say to me " I hate Music" I would probably tell them they can't the birds make music as does the wind and in fact almost everything has a rhythm and melody if we search for it.
Even your day has a song, a rhythm , a melody search for it and find it I found mine today in schoolwork , chatting with my Mum and siblings , listening to others and in everything!

Find yours NOW!!!!!!!!!!! That's an order soldier! (kidding)   And if you are feeling down turn on that radio and sing and dance!!!!

Challenges in daily life.

 Each of us has challenges in life some bigger than others , some tiny and really insignificant but when can't deny what they are challenges. 
Each day these challenges change, some days my biggest challenge is to get out of that heavenly , cloud like thing known commonly as "bed."  I then spend the rest of the day feeling like I won't accomplish anything today.  I feel sluggish and lazy. Not good! 
Other days my challenge is to just be there for others regardless of what I want to do. This means helping younger siblings make their lunches, read them stories, sing them to sleep, and other big sister tasks which on days that I have a full day of this by the end of the day I feel hectic, tired and just plumb worn out. It also gets to a stage where I lose that hard to acquire virtue : patience. 
My challenge on another day could be just to hold my tongue even when I feel a strong desire to speak.  Very hard to do!  
Or sometimes  my challenge could be just listen to others and be a shoulder to cry and sigh on.
Challenges are God given gifts sent to strengthen us in all we do , they are mini missions  given us from "The Great General And King" to  his  secret agents below.         
I  trust you will all do as I will and embrace the next  "mission" with joy and gladness knowing its a gift from the one who loves us most.

About me and Random Rambling.

 Okay, I just need to ramble and be a little random so please bear with me. I really don't know where this will go.  :D   
          I went to see Tangled today. What a fantastic movie!!!   It was much better then I expected it too be.   It was very eye popping in 3D.   Have I told you I like 3D???    Or maybe you already gathered that.     
I have been writing frequently in my journal.  I feel like my journal is a dear friend who will guard  my thoughts , dreams , desires and feelings.  Thank God for journals!!!
     
       I  have found some new Christian music I need to eventually get.      Have you ever felt a song you were listening to sink into your heart and speak to your soul, like it was written for  you!     Songs sooth my spirit when I'm mad . Help make me happy when I'm sad.   Give me something to dance to when I feel ecstatic and overjoyed.   Embrace my heart and heal old and new wounds.   Music is more than just music , a mere thing we listen to . To me it is a God given gift to His children.  Like a rare and precious gem entrusted to us.  I love music.
           
I often have bouts of depression , they can last several days , a few hours , under an hour.  They just happen and make me feel really down with , my family , my life , myself and everything in general.   They come unexpectedly and can be caused by just about everything.  A sentence someone says to me,   or just come and I can't tell you where they come from.   They make me feel insecure and unsure of everything,     I don't like being depressed as I am a happy person.
    
I  find the  most randomest things funny as my friends and family well know.    But, something has to be hysterical   to make me really laugh then I laugh for  ages and ages and I cry at the same time and have to wipe my eyes .   I love laughing.    Laughter is the best medicine they say.       

I have trouble verbally expressing  exactly  how I feel  to a lot of people but have no trouble  expressing myself  with a pen .      

Some days are soooooo hard to get through and I get to a stage at the end of the day where I don't really want to be touched and need to curl up in a ball in the dark and just feel quiet.    Are any of you the same?      Its surprising that I like curling up in the dark to calm down and feel better, as one of my few phobias is  Nyctophobia  .    a fear of the dark .  I shall list  my phobias here for your interest:       

Nyctophobia.   A fear of the dark.
                      Arachnophobia.  Fear of spiders.Not as bad as it used to be though, thankfully.
                                                        Haptephobia.   A fear of being touched. Wikipedia says it is   "an acute exaggeration of the normal tendencies to protect one's personal space, expressed as a fear of contamination or of the invasion, and extending even to people whom its sufferers know well."   And   Claustrophobia.   A fear of small confined spaces.     
You would have to be really close to me to know my phobias as I follow a quote from ' The Princess Diaries"  movies.           
"Courage is not the absence of fear . But, rather the judgment that something is more important , then fear."        I will often hide my deep emotions from others  until   I break down or carefully, slowly, deliberately and  delicately tell them how I 'm feeling.

I'm not exactly sure why I am like this . I just am  God made me this way and i thank Him for doing so and making me , me.   This has been very tough for me to write, I have opened my heart  and told you some stuff not really well known about me .  Stuff I would not willingly tell you but, I believe in being sincere so I am telling you more about myself.  I hope you can relate to something about me.
