A bucket off the bucket list

SOO...

i've decided.

I of course was inspired to write down my own bucket list after watching the movie... which I saw... quite a while ago... but I've decided I'm going to start working on it... One of my big ones on my list is to write and produce an entire CD worth of MY music.. so roughly 10 songs! It's a big undertaking but a fun one. I'm hoping to finish it by... as soon as possible. I'm really excited. God's really blessed me with a lot of talent so I think this might be doable. I want all the songs to reflect the impact God has had on my life. Who knows... maybe one day i'll be famous and you guys will be here throughout the whole journey... OR... I will finish my CD and every time I listen to it... It will comfort me and give me a sense of accomplishment. I'm so excited to get started! I'll try to keep this updated... with lyrics... struggles... laughs... dumb moments... God moments... all of the above...

SO keep an eye out blogettes and bloggers...

and let me know whatcha think!

Sara Bareilles - Love Song

This song is so catchy! I wanted to post it on my blog.. just because i've been hearing it a lot lately. She wrote this song because the record company wanted her to write a love song... so she did. haha. well I guess kind of an un-love song.

Opperation: "V-DAY"

I thought since LOVE was in the air... I'd do a lovely LOVE post. haha.. All of my friends at MOBAP are celebrating the day by showing their colors... aka black. Someone decided that V-day is only about those with boyfriends/girlfriends and those without. SO they're going to wear all black to separate the lovers... SINCE i'm a lover not a fighter... i'm opposing and wearing the normal holiday colors. ALTHOUGH I do not have a significant other. WHY?

1. I like pink

2. I like to be festive

3. I love my family and my friends and my church and of course God... and lots of other things too.

SO In celebration of the holiday i'm going to wear my PINK loud and proud.

Also I would like to state that there are three types of love... and I don't think V-day only celebrates just the Reyah or the ahavah or the dode. It celebrates love as a whole and all its parts.

SO if you officially love something.. wether it be yourself.. or someone or ANYTHING...


wear your colors!!

Being... Myself

I love being me... not as in I love myself... but as in I love being able to be myself... get it?

It's so crazy how easy it is to put on a mask when your in front of different crowds. Your this person here and your that person there. I'm sure God looks down at us and wonders what we're doing... and who exactly are we trying to impress. The funny thing is we think that if we wear these masks we can fool people... when really we're just fooling ourselves. Though there are those people who can really pull off their masks well. I think in the past I was a great actress. Wearing my "church" mask, wearing my "friends" mask, wearing my "family mask", wearing my "i'm too hot to trot" mask (don't ask me where I thought of that)... But in all reality I live on earth for Him,, for my number one. He knows who I am and what i'm about... with or without the masks. SOO. this post is just to re-embrace my freedom from masks. I love being myself and I think other people love me for me.

I'm glad i'm not classified as the church girl, or the girl who gets good grades, or some other stereotype... I hope that when people look at me they say.. hey look there goes Kayla she's awesome, she has a great heart, she loves God, she's real.


SO for all of those people wearing your masks out there...

as Natalie Grant says,

"take off your masks and live with the rest of us imperfect people!"

HAVE A GRREAT WEEK!


and don't forget be REAL.
