Beach!

So i know i havent updated in a loooonnnngggg time. But anyways... New york was amazing. I love going up there... now sarah needs to come to NC! I'll try to write more on it later (but we all know i'll probably forget) Then yesterday i went to the beach with Miranda and her church. That was really fun. We made this awesome sand castle. It had a cliff, a wall, a mote and everything. It was like an island and when the waves would come in the water would go all around it but then as soon as we went to get some boogie boards a huge wave wiped it out. So we just decided to stomp on it. The waves were pretty big so the boogie boards were fun. Miranda will probably put up some pics on her blog (randawho.blogspot.com) After that we went to this rib place which was really really really good!

Tonight im going to sams and then i think Wednesday is the first day that we have bible study and not visitation.

Thats all i can think of to write at the moment.

BACKFLIP

So I was watching this video on how to do back flips (i was going to post it but i just realized it has bad music in the background) Anyways they were like if u pull ur legs up as high as you can ur body will just flip. I was like- there are at least 10 different people at my church that would break their necks trying to do that. Then I was struck with bordom (again) and decided that if I did it on a bed I wouldnt hurt myself. (because I am brilliant) So since I have the bottom part of a trendle bed I put it back down on the floor (so I would break anything holding it up) And the first time I was about to do it I was like- i doubt if you pull your legs up u'll flip so I did and then have way through I freaked out because I thought I was going to fall on my neck. And then I started trying to get back unto my back and that made me fall on my neck. So then i was like- that didnt hurt that much... so actually tried but my foot got caught on a sheet and I did something funny to my back. I also knocked the breathe out of me.

But it was awesome. So then I watched the video to make sure I was doing everything right. Then I tried it again and i did it !!!!!!!!!! :D))))))))))))))))

Haha so then I was going to try it on my floor but then it would probably make the ceiling shake so hard that I would chip something (my house is soooooo old)

Haha- I can do a back flip. Now Im wondering why- if I took gymnastics for so long- did they not tell me how do a backflip?????????? I recorded myself doing it again on my bed but the vibrations turned it off :p

on the other hand my back is starting to hurt everytime I move...

Summer days <3

I luvvv summer but after awhile I run out of things to do and want to go back to school so I'll have something to do (plus i always find things to do when I procrastinate)

I've been bored all day... EXCEPT when I was eating cake and ice cream with my wonderful mother. (Happy birthday <3333333333 ) The highlight of my night will be the new monk and psychs... Im soooo ready to go to new york!

Oh- i was on youtube looking up random things and I found my old gymnastics place! I was like- heyyyyyy thats my place!!!!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/user/DanceWorksTriCounty


Yeah everyone there is crazy good now- girls are up to what levek 7? Its like a level a year... i think....

I spent the rest of my day on facebook, yahoo, and im. Facebooks new look confuses me. I like most of it but I hate some of it too. Im switching back and forth between the two. Grrr I hate it when websites change- it screws up my routine.

My movie maker is still broken but its a different type I think I can fix it :0)
(thats my clown face)

I dont have anything going on at the moment. I think Im going to fnish cleaning my room....

Past days

Hmm- well I went to mirandas party. =D It was sooo much fun, we soaked each other with water, screamed our heads off, ect. K so they had water balloons which lasted 2 seconds and then we pretty much filled up buckets with water. Then we had the best pizza ever! It tasted like new york style, but i havent had actual new york pizza in probably-1-2 years so its not like i really remember (Im going to new york in 2 weeks tho) they also had an amazing cake that lacees mom made. (it was really, really good!) I thought it was from the store when i first saw it. We screamed our heads off during the hannah montana concert (for half of it anyways) it wasnt how i remembered it but it was still fun because when ur with ur friends almost anything is fun. Then we "slept" and went to mirandas church. After that they came to overflow at my church. That was fun. Then everyone went home D: and now 3 days later it feels like i havent seen them in forever!

Except then of course there was all this stuff with a friend that I had to deal with when i got home overflow. That was annoying. I hate stuff like that... whenever i get in a fight with a friend it pretty much ends with one of us forgetting or asking the other person to forget. That didnt happen and it freaked me out!

But everythings good now- finally.

I also did something to my head so I would just randomly get dizzy and wouldn't be able to see anything for like- 10 seconds. It keeps happening and its driving me nuts. But Im not sick or anything...

Tkd was fun... ish.

I always love the forms but I kept on getting dizzy when i was doing it but i really need to learn it... we did board breaks. The only thing i can break easily with out pain is the elbow thing which i momentarily forgot the name of... After board breaks was bo staff, and frankly, when people throwing sticks at me it really freak me out. I think Im going to do fans for weapons because as far as I know nobody throws stuff at you (and its fun) but im not sure.

Then this morning me and my sister woke up really early (like- 5:!5) so we could do to The Border. Its a nice diner- i love the people who work there. They're always really nice and happy =D I got coffee which practically never drink and I put a ton of sugar in it (on accident) so I had sugar rush for the next hour or so.

Then I got bored again and I took zoey (my dog) on a crazy long walk. We walked through south main st (i dont know where it stops so i have no idea if i walked the whole street or not) then we walked in some neighbor hood i got lost in. That led to a field and then another neighborhood. At that point I was about to find a spot I recognized so that I could call my mom and ask her how to get home. But I ended up by a road I used to take to get to school- it around the library so i didnt really get lost in the middle of nowhere.

It was probably the coffee (jk) but usually I would've just turned around and walked all the way back. My dog was so tired that as soon as we walked into the kitchen she didnt even reach her water bowl before she collapsed. By then it was still only twelve. Im used to getting up at 11 so it felt like 4 to me...

And now Im listening my yahoo station thing, being bored for the 1000th time today.

Grrrrrrrr

Grrr- vegas doesnt publish avi vids which is what my camera takes! and then when i looked at the price for downloading it it was $300- i dont have that much money. I dont even have $3- but its fun to edit on. Lots of effects. But I will find a video editor eventually! This was a really quick post. Im going to write about mirandas party later because im too lazy right now.

Sony Vegassssss

So I've been on youtube looking up new video editor cuz i have tried every possible way to fix mine and it doesnt work. So I've heard about sony vegas but it seemed really complicated but I looked at some tutorials and I was like- whoa. The videos look amazing! So I found a trial version and Im downloading it now... its probably to complex but I really want to make a video on it! Sorry- this probably means nothing to anyone reading it but Im excited and Im trying to pass the time by blogging and going on facebook. :)

Staying up all night =)

So recently my parents (who are usually really strict about bed times) said that I could stay up all night on Fridays. So I was going to watch the lord of the rings (i was going to try to get through all 3) but by the end of the first one I was already tired (cuz of all the fight scenes) so then i went on neopets and played games while listening to some music. Then I put on gilmore girls... and now im blogging. I have no idea what to do with myself and I want to see how late I can stay up before I get dizzy or something like that :)

I gave another try torwards picking up my bo staff with my feet. That mixed with all the clothes thrown everywhere on the floor and the fact that my bo staff was in the car and I had to use a broom to improvise... well it didnt work. I ended up destroying one of my tkd trophies from last year (it was already breaking) and I managed to make a platform on my shelf so loose that if you put any weight on it at all it will tip. I know- Im so brilliant at 4:30 in the morning.

Haha I just spelled brilliant wrong.

I also practiced my brown belt form- more mentally than anything because my house is so old the a lot of movement makes noise and I cant wake my parents up.

OK- so my house creeks for no reason- just random outbursts of noise- and it freaks me out because I have this fear that someone will break in and kill my family or something. It doesnt help that my dogs will bark at every stinkin noise.

Hmmm- I cant think of anything else to blog about so I'll write more when I can think staight.

Friday, July 25, 2008

I put my blog on facebook or something like that....

I know I haven't written which is a bad habit because i like to blog... anyways.

If you scroll down and look at the sidebar on the right the last thing there is a like button for my facebook thingy. Idk what it is but miranda got one so i wanted one!

So if you have a facebook and a blog u can make one too. Even though I have no idea what to do.

K so Im going to blog now.

Well first off- jellybeans was awesome! I only fell 3 times- BUT one of the times was because savannah was attacking me and trying to kill me!!!! haha and the other times were me being an uncordinated person. Savannah ended up spending the night, I actually stayed up late. At her house I always fall asleep around 1:30 or 2 for some reason and she stays up till 3 or 4

Then next I think it was stripe testing- that went well. I don't really know if I did anything right but I passed :D I loveeee the brown belt form! i "know" half of it and then i slightly remember the other half. But its one of my favorites.

K then tuesday in tkd we had to do this thing to start our bo staff form and i can not do it! I think my bo staff hates me... I practiced when i got home and almost shattered my mirror...

Then thursday I went to the pool with savannah, miranda, anna, and grace. Lindsay was going to go but she was sick D: That was really fun, when me and savannah we're trying to dunk each other we were yelling and making strange noises you'll proabably be content with not hearing as long as you live- then some old person was like- r u drownding... or something like that and we were like- nooo.... haha

Then tonight I went to a game night at my church! SOOO fun! We played this game called pit- I love it! It's my new favorite card game :D The majority of the people were playing baseball which I dont think would've been as much fun. We played apples to apples and watched people playing the wii. After that everyone ate and a ton of ppl started catching goldfish with there mouths. I remember in 5th grade when we did that- but then we had to clean it up...

Then dodgeball.

So I think- 2 years ago I was at new life camp and some person broke my finger while we were playing it so then I hated dodgeball- now I love it again! I stayed torwards the back for most of the game but a lot of balls would land back there so it was fun. We played three games and the only time I got out was in the last game and then I got back in =D And now Im all hyper because of the caffine!

So that was a quick summary of the past week. I will try to blog consistently (even tho I think only 2 or 3 people read my blog...)

Jellybeans!

So 1st stripe testing today for tkd. I have a feeling I'll fail. It's cuz of those retarded jump side kicks! I cant do 1,2, and 3 but I think my number 4 is starting to look like a kick and not like Im having a spasm. I went through the review sheet and it took me awhile to get the strikes and blocks right since we haven't practiced them in an eternity.

I just remembered we go early for stripe testing. So I'm late- but I feel like blogging.

Then me and savannah are going to jellybeans. I havent been there in forever, I'll count how many times I fall and post it later.

K so really short post- but again, I felt like blogging.

World Changers!!!!


Well world changers is over. That had to be the fastest week I've had and Im dead serious. Im going to devide all the days into sections so if you get bored with a day you can skip around.


Saturday


We drove up their, it was about 3 hours and 30 minutes. Me, Sam and Amanda rode in the guys car and no offence to the girls but I think they have a lot more fun in their cars. Idk, maybe not. Its just that on the way back from maryland EVERYONE slept and it was incredibly boring so yeah... But anyways, so we entertained ourselfs by prank calling, taking pictures, singing to (mocking) pastor daves countrey music, and getting trucks to honk at us... thats all I can think of at the moment.

I called miranda and talked to her for awhile then phillip did his wierd carlos speach. He did that to alicia too. It was funny we hear him talking and talking and then we here him go "did u hang up on me? hello? hello...?"

Then we finally got there and unpacked. Then we explored, hung out at the gym, ate, ect...

The opening ceremony was fun. Our thing was its the 20th anniversary of 1988 so everything was all hippie and stuff! They played top games of 88 and then they had a lip syncing contest- i was dying laughing.
I was really tired when we got to bed. So that was Saturday.



SUNDAY


Sunday is a little blurry so if I miss out on a couple stuff... well no one will know anyways,




So we didnt work on sunday we had worship. The speaker was amazing! Our youth pastor said he might preach at our Dnow. There was also a singer who was really good. Then we met our crew. There were 8 people on our crew total. Me, Jessi, Jared, Ricky (willy) and Aron. Then we had Mr. Rob as our crew cheif, Mr. Pete as a crew encourager and then Jessis mom. We had the smallest crew and we were all middle schoolers.

I was really scared because all the kids seemed really shy and anti social (and if u have ever met me before u know that i talk and talk and talk and talk....) and all the adults seemed really- intense. Everyone was supposed to have one or two people from their church on their crew. I seriously didnt know that I did. I told a couple of my friends who were at tables near by and they looked at my crew and didn't recognize anyone either. Then zach (who was sitting behind me) was like- Jared goes to our church! and I was like- crap, because I was thinking he might of heard me talking. I had never seen him before but I felt bad about it. I wasnt shouting when I was talking to my friends and the cafeteria was really loud-most of the people were talking to near by friends (pretty much no one was talking to their crew.)


Then we visited our work sites and passed out bibles, cds, and a list of near by churches. We had two houses. The first house was at a pretty bad neighborhood. I saw a guy walking around with a gun strapped around his arm and ankle. Then we went back and had dinner. The food wasnt that good. I had salads every night because I cant eat a lot of cafeteria food. The breakfast was good though. Then we had another worship and group devotions.


Then we had free time for about 2 hours then lights out.



MONDAY



That was our first day of work. The week went by really fast but the days lasted foooooorrreeeeeevvvvveeeeerrrrr. It was already hot outside but it was even hotter inside because they didnt have air conditioning. The house was really, really small for such a big family. I was guessing everyone shared a bed with two or three people because they only had three. I felt really- ungrateful. At that moment I wanted to give them 8/9 of my stuff. The family was a lot closer then most people back here. I remember talking to the 14 year old girl on one of my breaks and she was like "My family are my best friends!" She was serious, every time we went they would be in the living room hanging out.
I got to tear out a couple windows! Thats fun, I'm pretty sure a kid on our crew was treating it like it was a anger managment class the way he was going at it. Then we went to our church to have lunch. Their food was always really good. We worked until four then we went back to the highschool (we're we were staying at.) Me and my friends hung out in the small gym *there was a big gym and then a double door to a smaller gym that not everyone knew about in the beginning of the week* Anyways, my crew got back from our worksite late so when we all rushed to the showers there was already a 40 minute line.. not fun when you are supposed to take 5 min showers but almost everyone takes 15 and three showers dont work.
But time went quick cuz you were in line with your friends most of the time. This is pretty random but everyone single time you went into the showers within that 40 minute period somebody would bring up either hannah montana, high school musical, jonas brothers, or camp rock. Two people got in this huge fight on whether or not miley is turning into a lindsay lohan. They were screaming, I was like- oookkkk....

Then we ate, From this day on is when I ate salads and desert. They recycled their pork into their lasania and I wasn't going to eat unidentified meat or as zach would say "shoe leather"
But despite everybody not liking their food the cooks still made it every day for us so- thanks.



Tuesday


We finished up our first house. There was this one window that took 3 hours to tear out. But it was my favorite because they let me out on the roof to do some of it. I loveeee being on roofs. It was funny watching one of the other girls freaking out because she's never been on the roof. Jessi's mom was afraid we'd both fall of the edge but I guess if I was babysitting and someone was on the roof I'd be having a heart attack. This roof was a lot more flat then maryland so I wanted to stay there the rest of the day. We had to sweep up all the little tiny wood pieces that fell when we tore out windows. Except we had to sweep carpets with a broom and use a peice of paper as the dust pan. This took fooorrreeevvveerrr! Then when we left we found out that we not only had a dust pan but we had a vaccum. =( Well now if we lose our dust pan or vaccum I'm ready.

We finished early and all of the girls were like "Yes showersss!!!!!!!!!!" But when we got back the doors were locked and after 4 other crews got there they let us in...

U should have seen us run! We were racing to out rooms flying back down the steps to get to our showers. Yes, it was a pretty pathetic thing to do on my part because as I was running into the shower room I did something to my toe and i spranged or something.... i only had to wait 4 minutes though :D

After that I went and hung out- did my first fully done bible study to the point were I didn't feel like I was rushing it so I'd get done in time for all dinner/worship.

I think today was the concert of prayer... BEST DAY EVER!

It is amazing how much god works. You entered in complete silence then they started off with prayer at your seat they told you different things to pray about. Then you got to go up on stage and write on a white sheet of paper a note to god. It could be whatever- I wrote about everything I was thankful for. Then you would go up and write on a black sheet with a black marker so no one could see it (and it was dark so you could even see the shine of the ink) and you wrote all your sins and asked god to forgive you. Then you could go back to your seat and pray about whatever you needed to or stand up and sing. I tried to sing but I started crying- for no other reason then everything they talked about got to me. Its hard to explain. That was the best night for me while I was there. We went outside to our youth group devotions and God was really- real. Gods always been real but I could feel it, like he was right next to me. Like I said its hard to explain. I'm pretty sure there were at least 50 other people feeling the same way.


Wednesday

HALF DAY! We worked until lunch then went back to the high school and spent the afternoon with your youth group wherever they decided to go. We didn't go to our second home because all we had to do was roof and abunch of touch ups. So we went to a different house. They were flooring and painting. I helped With the flooring for two seconds then I helped scrape paint in the bathroom and then I helped paint a wall in the living room. It went by really quick because the whole time I was either talking to Akira or Sarah(go to my church) then there's Chris she was hysterical. I met her the day before because akira was hanging out with her. She's one of those people that everyone likes to hangout with and she finds time to hang out with everyone.

That picture is of Me, Chris, and Akria.






Then was our HALF DAYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the youth groups were going to the water park, others were going to see a boat tour. We went to the beach! It was fun- the waves weren't that big so eventually almost everyone came out and started barrying people in sand. I got a picture of my brother. I got barried too. It was fun but there was some sort of crab or something slimy that was moving around my leg which freaked.me.out. But it was still fun. Then we went to some sort of grill. They had a bunch of raw seafood and you decided what you wanted. I got all the seafood and put all the sauces on it- it was crazy good. You got to watch them cook it on this big circular stove. After we finished Zach (the adult zach) started throwing spit balls at people. That was really funny! I'm sure the waitresses were happy.

Then again at $20 a person and with there being about 37 of us I dont think they really cared. After that we went to walmart and I forget if I got the two cans of whipped cream before or after.

I have a weird obsession since we never have it at my house and its amazing. So I bought two cans and shared it with all the girls in my room.
Along with beef jerky for amanda because she is addicted.


Thursday

This was the longest day ever! We started our third house. I love that lady! She was sooo sweet. It was really cool because she was loosing pigment in her hands which made her hands turn white. Then one day at her church she found a recipe that could turn them black again. She had everything she needed except for beets. As soon as she got home one of her neighbors brought to much and gave her some... when we heard that we were all like= whoa :D

I did a lot of different things- roofing, fencing, mowing, redid a little of the porch, power washing, putting in gutters, and trimming trees/branches/ I'm pretty sure thats everything (everything I did at least) It was one of the hardest things I've ever done. I think all construction workers should get a award or something.

Everyone was trying to get all the work done all we needed was to clean and do a little more roofing tomorrow.

ohhhhh And then I met creeker!!!!!!!!!

K so I have a HUGE obsession with dogs. And there was this big security dude who apparently had a dog. In the high school cafeteria when you walk in theres a wall on your right then on that wall is door to the office then 5 or 6 windows that go up and down the whole wall. If you look through the window theres this strip of land that has benches and tiny trees and flowers. Then after the stripe of land is the library. So the land is basically caged in.

So there was this really tiny puh. SoooooOOOOoooOOOooo cuuuutttteeeee :D I wanted to burst in there and start playing with him sooooo stinkin bad! But pastor dave was like- asked the security guard. I had no idea who he was so I couldn't ask. But later we saw some of the middle school guys petting her so obviously they got permission.

Then we went in and we did know her name so we called her creeker. If you've ever seen my dog (zoey) well creeker is the miniture version.

Oh and in case u didnt know our church youth are creekers. (richland creek) we have a chant and everything- which we did randomly during meals. Yeah we were the crazy church that everyone talked about- boy was it fun.

Then for worship was the offering. He had an awesome sermon on giving. Then we went to bed.


Friday

LAST DAY!!!!

It was bittersweet type thing. I didn't want it to be over, but thats what makes it so special is that its not that long. I wanted to go home to my family and my pups but after living with my friends *and crew* for a week they felt like family and it was really sad not too be able to see them. I also wanted to see Savannah, Miranda, and Lindsay... i missed them a lot even though I only see them 2-4 times a week.

So when we went to work we were all sad. All we did was clean. I got kinda sick, but last year I was sick almost every day and didn't go too 3 days of work so I was determined not to stop. We picked up branches, wood, weeds, ect. We packed we took our last chance to go on visitation. Then we waited for the part of the roof the kids weren't aloud to work on to get done.

I actually fell asleep on the porch but whatever....

Then our crew cheif got a call to go help the high school group. They only had room for one person to help so there was a park next to us so my crew went there and got some shade... good times, good dehydrated times.

And that was it for the last day of work.

I came back and did everything I didn't do yet (yes there were some things I wish I had done but it would've been really stupid on my part so i didnt)

Then the closing awards. All they did was play this video

(for better quality download it here: http://www.world-changers.net/site/c.jjJVJ6MNIwE/b.4277745/ )

(i think its the full version if u download it- this isnt)




It may not be as interesting as it was for me because I knew a lot of the people in there... but in case u get bored you can watch it.

So we all got upset about leaving but we still had fun. We invited people to come to the celebration and the lady from the third house did! She was so much fun!

Then they let us stay up till 12 and they had a dance party! with the electric slide type music. It was fun and then pastor dave taught me and my friends how to swing dance :D me and amanda/akira perfected it. It was fun.

Then after all the fun we had to go to sleep.



Saturday:

Got up early, everyone was supposed to have donuts but our church forgot to preorder them so we were starving. But some guys from a different church had left overs and were really nice and gave me and akira some.

We had an hour to say goodbye- it wasnt enough.

Then pastor dave to took everyone to Mc Donalds for breakfast- his treat :D

Then it was our long journey home (we took the guys car again) and it was fun. Me and my brother were doing this weird handshake he taught me lol.
we hung out and then went home- sorry its not so detailed... i wanted to write something about it.


And I know there are a lot of grammar mistakes- again sorry.

So that was my amazing week at world changers!!!!

Done with Runners Camp and tomorrow is world changers.

K so today was the last day of runners camp. We had a dunking tank and a huge blow up slip and slide type thing. When I got on the dunking tank all the girls were like "I'm going to get you!" But in the back of the thingy you can pull a bar and you fall in. They did that to me three times before one of the girls tried to throw a ball. Then after another to dunks I got out. I wanted to go to the track meet but I had to do some last minute packing for WORLD CHANGERS!!!!

I!CAN!NOT!WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would say this is my last post for awhile but I will probably write something tomorrow because I will be bored and wanting to leave but I'll have an agonizing two hours before I can actually go. I'm afraid I'm going to forget something important... I know I'll I'm going to forget something I just hope I don't absolutely need it.

So now I have that feeling in my stomach because I'm so excited... Oh and another blonde moment of mine... I zipped my brush up in my suitcase so Idk what I'll use tomorrow because once I open my bag it takes both of my 70 pound dogs sitting on it to close it again (not really but it takes a looooonnnnggggg time.)

Ok well I'm going to try and "sleep"

Oh and I got my Internet back on my computer!!!!! Just in time for me to leave for 8 days and not be able to get on it at all :D

Then friday is the last day of runners camp (i might get to get dunked in the dunking tank) then world changers- thhhheeennn I want to do the second week of runners camp but idk if my mom will let me or if I'll be too tired or if I'll get sick like I do every single flippin year.

My internet went down AGAIN!!!!!

My flippin retarded internet went down AGAIN! (As you can tell from the title) Until my dad has the time to fix it I can hardly ever get on the internet....

SO

For my sisters gradutation we went to this really fancy resturant ( frisers) and all the food was AMAZING! When I first read the menu I was like umm, I'm not putting something in my mouth that I cant pronounce. But it was really good.

And everything was so.... pretty!

I got scallops for the first course and chicken for the second course. The scallops were really good! I liked the chicken, it wasn't just chicken it had some sort of green stuff stuffed into it. I didnt like the green stuff but the chicken itself was really good. Then came desert and I get to say something that not a lot of people get to say.... (drum roll).....


I got to eat cheese ice cream!!!!!

I didnt get the desert for the cheese ice cream. They had this white chocolate mouse that had strwberrys on it and that was what I wanted anyway so I tried the cheese ice cream and it turned out really well. And no it didn't taste like cheese... but im guessing if I took bigger bites it might have tasted similar.

So thats what we did for my sisters graduation (CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!) I took some pictures but forgot to bring the camera into the restaurant but I still got pictures of everyone dressed up... those are on my laptop so I will put it up when I get my internet back.

Then I went babysitting. The kids are so good... I like being around little kids because I act just like them and they don't care. So now I have some money for fathers day...

This morning I went to my first runners camp counselor meeting. I've been going to that camp every year since I was old enough. Now I get to volunteer which my whole family says is better. They have water games which everyone wants to work at, but they usually dont let the younger volunteers work at them. So I got to be an age group helper for the 7 year olds. Thats what I wanted so Im happy... thats starts monday.

I have no idea how soar i am going to be after runners camp.... the day after runners camp I go to world changers... I'll take a before/after picture. (Before I get killed with sunburn and after)

I have nothing to do on a saturday... its sad. I dont know when Im going shopping for fathers day....

Oh well, I was up till 3 o'clock last night and then I had to wake up early for the meeting... so now I feel sick from being so tired...

Im going to sleep for the rest of the day... k bye.

MY BROTHER IS COMING HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait! I haven't seen him since christmas! My brother is a youth pastor in california, the desert part of it. He has a long curly red beard and long blonde hair. I 'll take a pic of him, I'm sooo excited. He's coming up for a wedding but he's also going to our sister graduation and I think he'll be here for fathers day. So I'll get to see him some time. When he came home for christmas I thought he was only going to stay for a week but because he had some problems he ended up staying for a month! But the first week he came back all his friends were spending all of his time with him, but sometimes they would come back to the house and he would come for dinner.
Hes a really fun person to talk too. He has a bunch of stories of things he's done. I've really missed him-

K so to pass the time before he gets back I'll write about what I did today....

Well I hurt my arm so I didn't go to tkd because I didn't want to make it worse. Savannah said they did a ton of exercises and then tension side kicks and I dont really feel bad about missing it....

I went to a friends house. She went to my old church and I've only seen her twice this year! She's about the sweetest person ever!!!!! Then I came home and talked to my friends for the whole time.

Then I was bored and me and my sister went to walmart and we ended up buying a taylor swift cd (one of the only country singers i like) turns out my "media player doesnt have the right codec to play file" and it wont tell me what the stinkin codec is so I can download it... but my sister said she can get it on our old computer and I can put it on my mp3 player and put it back on my laptop.

Then I got bored again and decided that I was too pale. I'm seriously like a ghost... but it doesnt bother me or anything. I looked up a homade sunless tanning recipe. I found one that involved cocoa so I was like "chocolate- sweet." and I rubbed it on. It worked on my legs but then when I put it on my face it looked orange so I was like- whatever. It rubbed off just fine. Then I was bored again and I wanted wrap myself in tin foil just to see what it feels like but then my common sense kicked in and i was like- ha! I'll write an entry on my blog and let everyone know that Im still capable of posting.

And now I am done and I'm bored and I'm watching my sister try on all these dresses....


my brother needs to get here!!!!!!

Sorry...

Sorry no posts lately, honestly nothings been happening. Hmm... seriously nothing is coming to mind. Well actually a lot, but half of it is the type of stuff that starts rumors/spreads gossip. Mainly I am super mad at my brothers ex, I hope that the guy she likes now is going to show her how great of a boyfriend my brother was... she called today.

Thats all I'm going to say, cuz I'm on the verge of being super mean to her.

I cant wait for the pool to open, I need something to do this summer... besides sitting around watching tv. World changers is a little more than 2 weeks away... exciting


OH

And my oldest brother is coming home for a week!!!! =0) (thats my new awesome clown faced smiley!)

I have to take a pic of him- he doesnt look anything like a youth pastor lolz...

See- extremely short post, Im still mad but whatever...

The Call

You know those really good songs that hit you in the gut after you listen to them. The type that you find like- 4 times a year. (This is how it is for me because I dont usually listen to meaningful music)
But anyways yesturday I finally saw narnia and this one song at the end kinda hit me. Idk why I like it so much I usually dont like sad songs but I thought this was really good so I looked it up and decided to put in on here.

Maryland journal/pics

K so, were do I start?????

The car ride.

So on the way up we were all excited and hyper and pretty much talked the whole time. It was a 15 passenger car and all except one row was full of 6/7 graders. I was in the very back with sam, tahlia and akira. The time past faster this year... but we talked about everything!!!!! Then they started to play this silent game. Last year they played it on the way back for 2 whole hours and it drove me mad!!! But that only last for like- 2 minutes.
We stopped at burger king/wendys.... tough choice.

Personaly I think wendys is all around better but I like how (in my oppinion) burger king has an "off the grill" taste to it. But they are slow and the line was long so me and some friends walked over to wendys.

Then we got back into the car, by then it was dark and everyone pulled out their cameras and started taking all these pics of course my video camera doesnt have a flash so I didnt really use mine.
After that we fell "asleep" by asleep I mean we closed our eyes and continued talking. The camp is on this big hill so I sat backwards in my seat and told scary lies about the camp to my 6th grade friend who's never been before.
Of course we stayed true to richland creek timing and got there two hours later than planned. Which means we fell asleep two hours later than planned.
Ok now here is my first scary camp experience!
Sarah and I could not sleep! Then for some reason when we relized we were both awake we just started laughing and could not stop. So I was motioning for her to get off the bunk beds (we were both on top) and go to the bathroom so we could laugh without them hearing us. So of course I fell and woke everyone up, which made sarah laugh even harder. Then after- 15 minutes of cracking up in the bathroom we went back and fell asleep. Ok here is the freaky part!

I woke up at around- 5 in the morning and I could tell my bed was positioned differently so I start freaking out and was like "Were am I?" Of course I was in sarahs bed and she was in mine. We have no idea how that happend but it was really wierd.

Then it was work, on the roof. How many middle school girls can say that? (probably a lot but whatever)

We tore off shingles and the tarp paper. Then we got out the nails and we were done! I worked on to cabins and one bigger building. I also painted the fence which got boring fast.
Then of course was free time and we went exploring, boating and just hanging out.
It was nice, everyone got along with each other. One guy screwed up and said something pretty bad but he apologized and moved on.

There were these koreans there too. I used to have a best friend who was korean and she was soooo sweet but these people were rude.. I said hi to every single one and they all ignored me.

But the probably thought we were wierd too, being on the roofs and all. They were good singers though. One time at lunch people started randomly saying "welcome to moes" when people walked in the door and a korean walked in and ran out. =)

But that was wierd because all the other koreans I've ever met were so nice! And this was a christian camp-

Thats all I'm going to write now cuz its time for bed but Im going to come back and edit this and put more pics in it, (the pics were taken by the one and only Tahlia!)
