Can't Help It...

Okay, I'm going to post all of the "Insanitized" video by Tim Hawkins. These videos are not mine; I found them on youtube.

Do you blame me? He's is just way too funny!












(The part when he starts talking in a fake Indian-ish accent totally cracks me up XD)

Happy Father's Day! :)

Get Your Reference Right!

I just thought I'd just share a funny thing that happened to me the other day...

Okay, so I was WAY nervous with school. I mean, new people, new place, and new teachers. Not to mention new curriculum, new school supplies, and a new locker (I've never had one before!)

My mom decided she would encourage me with the help of the Scriptures.

So she directed me to read Isaiah 47.

I sort of knew what her intentions were, and she seemed to honestly excited and genuine, so I picked up a Bible and started reading...

Here's some of what I saw:

"5 "Sit in silence, go into darkness,
Daughter of the Babylonians;
no more will you be called
queen of kingdoms. "

"11 Disaster will come upon you,
and you will not know how to conjure it away.
A calamity will fall upon you
that you cannot ward off with a ransom;
a catastrophe you cannot foresee
will suddenly come upon you. "

Okay, so there's just a taste. You can imagine my reaction, right?

My eyes got bigger and bigger as I read on. When I finished the whole passage, I was pretty freaked out.

I went to find my mom, and she greeted me with a smile.

MOM: "So, *Prism*, did you like it?"

ME: "Like it?! What were you trying to say here?"

MOM: "What do you mean???"

So I showed her what I had read... and of course, she realized her mistake.

My mom had wanted me to read Isaiah chapter 43.

2 When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze

5 Do not be afraid, for I am with you;
I will bring your children from the east
and gather you from the west.

So different, right? You may want to read the whole chapters if you want to, to see what I read exactly.

We had some laughs yesterday, my family and I.

AND we've all learned a lesson- Get your references right!!!

God Bless,

Randomness Friday: I'm in Middle School???!!!

Apparently, I’m still in middle school…

First off, let me start with some facts about myself for you who are newcomers or don’t know much about me…

1. I’m pretty tiny (Asian people usually are)
2. I don’t wear makeup
3. I skipped a grade (1^st, so no big deal…)

Today we went school shopping at Wal-Mart. No brainer, right? Low prices and a convenient location. So we were there about an hour, and when we went to check out, there was a woman in her twenties at the register.

Seeing all of our school supplies, she asked, “Ready to go back to school?”

“Yes,” I said, smiling politely, trying to ignore Lil’ Sis’s bellowed version of “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”.

She was a little surprised and asked, “Seriously? You want summer to end?”

My mom said, “She’s been bored.”

Well, in truth I sorta do want summer to be over, so I said, “Yeah. I’ve been so bored all summer!”

She then commented on how good that was for my mom and all…

After ringing up a few more items, she turned to me again. “So what grade are you going to? Seventh?”

“Um…no… I’m in the middle of high school.”

She seemed a little embarrassed. “Oh…Well… You’re just so…skinny!”

I think she meant small…

Of course, I was a teensy bit uncomfortable and didn’t know what to say. “Oh, um, thank you- I mean, that’s okay…”

Then she said that I’ll be able to pass for someone younger a lot when I’m a lot older, and how much I’ll love it. Which, I suppose I will, in a way. I’m enjoying it quite a bit nowadays… I love shocking people with my real age.

While we were on our way out, my mom and sister (Artista) tried to find reasons why she might have thought I was still in middle school. Might as well mention Lil’ Sis was still singing…

My mom thought it was because of the fact that I don’t really like glopping heavy makeup on my face. (Glopping… ha! New word, ya’ll!)

Artista thought it might’ve been the fact that I was wearing clothes from the girls section of a store instead of juniors… (Okay, hel-lo! It was the only section I could find fitting clothes until VERY recently!)

*shrugs* Who knows? But we got a laugh out of it.

It’s funny, actually… A LOT of people have taken me for a little kid. Even other girls my age! Like at the library, we signed up for the summer reading program, and the teen girls thought I was still in elementary school.

Wowzers. This is just too funny.

But you know what? I’ve learned that my smallness is God-planned. I may hate it at times (especially when trying to play basketball… *sigh*)

But guess what? I’m like a PRO at hide-and-go-seek (can fit into a washing machine ya’ll!) and I think being small is a good thing for riding horses, which I adore.

I used to hate my height and build, but now.... *sings McDonalds song* badadadaDA! I’m lovin’ it!

God Bless,

Top Ten Reasons To Go To Church

Funny...=D

1. It’s a way to get a healthy glow without makeup.

2. Elvis started out in a church choir … so can you.

3. Goodness and mercy will follow you all the rest of your life–which are better than the IRS or FBI.

4. In this economy, it might be good to be hooked up with Someone who can turn water into wine.

5. You can walk down an aisle and approach an altar without having to gain a mother-in-law.

6. The Biblical admonition to “greet one another with a holy kiss” boosts your social life.

7. Hard Times? Kids getting on your nerves? Free coffee and child care at church!

8. The sound of money dropping is the offering, not your stocks.

9. Robes, candles, music…and it’s less expensive than a spa.

10. With April 15 coming, remember, Man does not live by Turbotax alone.

2008 was great, but 2009 is...is...

Is what? I mean, I remember from last year that people were saying things like "2007 was heaven, but 2008 is going to be great!" or something like that. Doesn't 2009 deserve to come in with style too?

WARNING: THIS IS REALLY, REALLY RANDOM!!!

Now with all of the formalities out of the way, the only things I could think of were:

2008 was great, but 2009 is gonna rhyme! (Well, the "2008 is great" part rhymed, so there's not much point. Plus, how could a year rhyme? *shakes head*)

2008 was great, but 2009 is gonna be a lime! (Uhhhh, does this mean 2009 is going to be sour?)

2008 was great, but 2009 is gonna be a dime! (*blinks* What?)

2008 was great, but 2009 is going to be...going to be...sublime? (Uhhhh.....nope. Didn't rhyme!)

2008 was great, but 2009 is going to be...MINE! (MWAHAHAHA! *coughs* Nu-uh)

2008 was great, but 2009 is going to be divine! (Uh, I'm not sure)

Alright, I'm all out of ideas! Does anyone else have an idea?

It's so hard to believe that a new year is upon us! *screams and panics*
Well, I have a lot planned for 2009 including more book reviews, a monthly fiction article, and a monthly article about hot topics. But I will take this day to reminisce on all of the amazing things that have happened to me this great year.

1. I started this blog and became GoMC!!!! Awesomeness, yeah? Next June will be my first anniversary! *sniffs sentimentally* Can you believe it? I've been asked about this blog's title, A Girl of Many Colors. several times. Where'd it come from? Several theories include Joseph's coat of many colors and the horse of a different color (from the Wizard of Oz which I hadn't seen until this year). To tell ya'll the truth, I just randomly thought of it one day, and it stuck!

2. I joined the Dragons in Our Midst by Bryan Davis forum and became DoT! (Daughter of Thigocia) And yes, the whole "Dot" thing was planned. It was either Daughter of Thigocia or Daughter of Makaidos. DoM didn't sound as cool and DoT, so I became DoT! If you are on the forum, or are going to join, feel free to stop by and say hi!!!

3. I got a little sister!!! Though we won't meet her until next year, I feel like I'm already hers!

4. I got 100,000 words in my book! (Part one of a four book series) Though I am not completely sure when I started (Bad record keeping skills) I am 90% sure I started the book I have now in this year. (There were about 5 rough ideas until the final one showed through! Again, my bad record keeping skills kicked in and I threw most of the rough drafts away)

5. I got to ride a horse for real for the first time this year at a church picnic! And, if ya'll remember my post, it was REALLY a real ride for my sister and I! Thanks so much to the Phantom Stallion series (which I will be introducing to you in the near future) my mind flashed to one of the book's scenes and I hung on instead of jumping of the galloping horse. Thanks so much to the people at the church picnic who were fast thinkers and immediately started praying since they could do nothing else to stop the horse. And thanks so much to God for protecting my sister when she was thrown off of the horse and myself! God's amazing, and he is SO real!
Remember that one post when I said I'd be riding a horse at the one person's place who owned the horse at the picnic? Well, it didn't exactly work out due to bad weather. Hopefully, as soon as it gets warmer in the spring, I'll mount up.

6. I had a big birthday this year!

7. I got a black belt in Tae Kwon Do this year with a struggle involving an evil energy drink. Again, blogged on it if you want to read about my interesting encounter with (Du Du Dun!) The Blue Demon!

8. I got baptized by my dad this year!

9. I started exploring the world of writing for real this year, and I definitely DON'T regret it!

10. I've learned more about the computer than I ever did before! Tech savvy, I guess you could call it!

So, what amazing things happened to YOU (Yes, YOU!) in 2008?

God Bless,


(P.S. Like my new siggie???)

Hilarious Anita Renfroe Videos

At my friend's house today we watched an Anita Refroe video. She has such humorous aspects on EVERYTHING! I was laughing so hard at her songs "Mom Song" and "Don't Breathe On Me" a humorous remodel of Faith Hill's song.

Here's the lyrics!

"The Mom Song"

Get up now
Get up now
Get up out of bed
Wash your face
Brush your teeth
Comb your sleepyhead
Here's your clothes and your shoes
Hear the words I said
Get up now! Get up and make your bed
Are you hot? Are you cold?
Are you wearing that?
Where's your books and your lunch and your homework at?
Grab your coat and gloves and your scarf and hat
Don't forget! You gotta feed the cat
Eat your breakfast, the experts tell us it's the most important meal of all
Take your vitamins so you will grow up one day to be big and tall
Please remember the orthodontist will be seeing you at 3 today
Don't forget your piano lesson is this afternoon so you must play
Don't shovel
Chew slowly
But hurry
The bus is here
Be careful
Come back here
Did you wash behind your ears?
Play outside, don't play rough, will you just play fair?
Be polite, make a friend, don't forget to share
Work it out, wait your turn, never take a dare
Get along! Don't make me come down there
Clean your room, fold your clothes, put your stuff away
Make your bed, do it now, do we have all day?
Were you born in a barn? Would you like some hay?
Can you even hear a word I say?
Answer the phone! Get off the phone!
Don't sit so close, turn it down, no texting at the table
No more computer time tonight!
Your iPod's my iPod if you don't listen up
Where are you going and with whom and what time do you think you're coming home?
Saying thank you, please, excuse me makes you welcome everywhere you roam
You'll appreciate my wisdom someday when you're older and you're grown
Can't wait till you have a couple little children of your own
You'll thank me for the counsel I gave you so willingly
But right now I thank you not to roll your eyes at me
Close your mouth when you chew, would appreciate
Take a bite maybe two of the stuff you hate
Use your fork, do not burp or I'll set you straight
Eat the food I put upon your plate
Get an A, get the door, don't get smart with me
Get a grip, get in here, I'll count to three
Get a job, get a life, get a PHD
Get a dose of,
"I don't care who started it!
You're grounded until you're 36"
Get your story straight and tell the truth for once, for heaven's sake
And if all your friends jumped off a cliff would you jump, too?
If I've said it once, I've said at least a thousand times before
That you're too old to act this way
It must be your father's DNA
Look at me when I am talking
Stand up straighter when you walk
A place for everything and everything must be in place
Stop crying or I'll give you something real to cry about
Oh!
Brush your teeth, wash your face, put your PJs on
Get in bed, get a hug, say a prayer with mom
Don't forget, I love you
And tomorrow we will do this all again because a mom's work never ends
You don't need the reason why
Because, because, because, because
I said so, I said so, I said so, I said so
I'm the mom, the mom, the mom, the mom, the mom!!
Ta da!!!

My favorite line is "Your iPod's my iPod if you don't listen up" xD

Another, "Don't Breathe" It's not good as the one I saw, but it's still humorous!

Playground games in Tae Kwon Do?!?!?!?!

Yesterday was quite...strange in Tae Kwon Do. First off we lined up as usual then the little boys started saying that they wanted to play Red Rover. Our strict Tae Kwon Do master actually agreed! Me and one of my friends there, also a black belt, looked at each other and said "Oh dear". So we got into two teams and held hands (yuck) So people slammed into other people's arms and sometimes made it and sometimes not. Then, the master and instructor started to play. 0.o Everyone wanted them on their team and such since they were the biggest and strongest people in our class. Oh, and my sister is going to test for blue with red belt very soon! (Once they set a date. Which might take a while. *sigh*)

Beware of the Blue Demon!

A mildly funny thing happened at my Tae Kwon Do black belt test. We rushed from violin lessons to my house for me to change into my dobak (uniform) and hanbul (belt). I didn't have time to eat nor fill up a water bottle. My dad had gotten this energy drink from his work, and he decided that this was the right time to use it. So we got to Tae Kwon Do, and I was all pumped up for my test. As time passed and I became more fatigued, I became scared because I started shaking and my eye hand coordination was awful. The energy drink helped a little bit in the end, or maybe it was the water I drank when the energy drink ran out, but I broke five boards and a brick with various techniques. We later found out it was the Blue Demon energy drink that had messed me up. My parents and I were joking the other day and my dad said, "Maybe we should give it to you before violin lessons so you can do the vibrato!" But oh how we laughed over what seemed at the time frustrating and confusing! Anyway, I am now a black belt and am getting used to the responsibilities.
