Musicals

Hello lovelies, It was suggested for me to write about something I love so I should probably write about musical theatre. I do not normally write blog posts so bare with me, please. Ummm…I have been interested in musical theatre and honestly just theatre in general since I was a child I guess. However, it wasn’t until recently that I really developed and acted upon these interests. When I was in middle school I was in the drama class and the after school drama club where I was able to learn about the different techniques of acting. In drama club, I acted in the plays/musicals that we put on. I was Nana (the dog), a mermaid, and a pirate in  Peter Pan.  Additionally, I was casted as the role for Lefou in  Beauty and The Beast  where I had to sing. When I got to high school I joined the theatre club at my school (International Thespian Society) where I competed in our district's competition with a group of 7 girls and danced in a small group musical number with ...

God's girl

Father's day just occurred this past Sunday.  It almost came and went just like any other day.  Father's day isn't nearly as celebrated as Mother's day.  I wanted to take the time this week to celebrate the fact that I am my daddy's little girl. My father Greg Carroll is the most amazing man you'll ever meet.  He is funny and isn't afraid to be weird simply for the fun of it.  He is strong both physically and spiritually.  He leads our family to Christ and supports us without a second thought.  He seeks God in everything he does.  What I've recently more than ever before found to be amazing about my father is his love.  He serves and loves the people of this world in so many countless ways.  More impactful to me than that is his love for me.  His love for me has lead me to become so in awe of how deeply God loves me!  You see I always knew my dad loved me a lot, but it wasn't until I tried to face this life alone and came b...

Purple Hair!?!

Once upon a Tuesday, I got a crazy idea.  "Dye your hair purple" whispered the voice in the back of my mind.  It didn't take much convincing, just the simple thought to get me on my way.  I thought it would be a fun post to take y'all on the journey with me.  Sorry, it isn't just one video, I didn't have any editing time. This is from my first attempt to buy the correct items.  I had to go back to the store later.... I might have forgotten gloves and hair bleach. My hair was a mess after bleaching it.  I honestly felt very clueless the whole time. I watched an episode of Friends while I waited for the dye to do it thing. After the first couple washes the purple has become more noticeable.  I really like it a lot!   It was definitely an adventure and if you're and experienced hair person don't judge my lack of ability to dye my own hair.  I tried my best to follow the instructions on the box and just wi...

An Open Letter to my Sister...

Hello beautiful,       I found myself wondering how I love someone so deeply that lives miles and miles away.  Wondering how I am making it through on all the days I don't get to see your face or hear your voice.  Most of all I just wonder why God had to place you so far away.  Even though I have to put more effort into our relationship it still feels effortless.  It is as if being here for you is just a simple calling placed on my little heart.  I don't think you could ever know how much I miss you, but I guess you probably feel the same way.  I just wish we could live in our moments full of laughter even when we have no idea why we are laughing.  For some reason talking to you makes any day easier and brighter.  You take my days that are blue for no apparent reason and give me a thousand reasons to smile.  I know that I'll always be able to count on you even if we go a while without talking.  What we have...

Who is your God?

As spring has quickly approached us I have been taken away with this idea of cleaning my soul.  Before company comes over we all frantically deep clean our homes.  What would you do if God was coming over?  Even better how would you react if you were to realize He was already here.  Where would you go first?  What would you want to be wearing?  What would you be ashamed for him to see?  The fact is that the Lord dwells in our hearts. In Luke 19 we read the story of Zacchaeus.  This tax collecter climbs a tree to see Jesus.  Zacchaeus is already a social outcast, and instead of blending into the crowd he decided to stand out simply because of a desire to be close to the Lord.  In verses 5 and 6 it is stated "When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him. "Zacchaeus, come down immediately.  I must stay at your house today."  So he came down at once and welcomed him gladly."  Two things stick out to me i...

Unitied

U'NITY ,  noun [Latin unitas.] The state of being one; oneness Ladies, we are one, united.  Togeather we can rise, but togeather we will also fall.  We are so focused on being at the top that we ignore the people around us that support us as we rise.  Without even realizing it we tear one another down to make ourselves feel good.  Even if you have never said anything means to a fellow young lady.  I can say without a doubt you've looked at someone and thought something along the lines "I'm glad I don't look like her" or you've picked out one of her flaws.  We compare ourselves to one another to build ourselves up but it also tears us down.  As Theodore Roosevelt once stated, " Comparison is the thief of joy. "  My dear sisters, why would we contribute to the loss of joy in one another?  We all know the struggle to stay happy from day to day.  How often do you look in the mirror and think "if I only looked more like...
