It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing.

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best, when you say nothing at all.

All day long I can hear people talking outloud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine.

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best, when you say nothing at all.

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best, when you say nothing at all...

-When you say nothing at all.

There you go changing my plans again
There you go shifting my sands again
For reasons I don't understand again
Lately I don't have a clue
Just when I start liking what I see
There you go changing my scenery
I never know where you're taking me
But I'm trying just to follow you

It's out of my hands
It's out of my reach
It's over my head
And it's out of my league
There's too many things
That I don't understand
So it's into your will
And it's out of my hands

There you go healing these scars again
Showing me right where you are again
I'm helpless, and thats where I start again
I'm giving it all up to you

It's out of my hands
It's out of my reach
It's over my head
And it's out of my league
There's too many things
That I don't understand
So it's into your will
And it's out of my hands

Move me, make me
Choose me, change me
Send me, shake me
Find me, remind me
The past is behind me
Take it all away
Take it all from me, I pray

It's out of my hands
It's out of my reach
It's over my head
And it's out of my league
There's too many things
That I don't understand
So it's into your will
And it's out of my hands

-Out of my hands, Matthew West

I should be...but...

2007-01-10T15:27:00.000-05:00

I should be doing schoolwork so i can graduate by the end of this month without a big rush, but i'm not, because i dont feel like it, and i'd rather lay on the couch with blankets and Sherbert...why? because i'm in pain, i have a sore throat, i feel feverish and my whole body aches...

I should be showered and dressed so i'm ready to go out, and buy some sherbert ice cream for my poor throat, but i'm not, because i dont feel like it, and i'd rather lay on the couch with blankets and Sherbert...why? because i'm in pain, i have a sore throat, i feel feverish and my whole body aches...

I should be doing barn work, or playing with the new baby goaties, but i'm not, because i dont feel like it, and i'd rather lay on the couch with Sherbert...why? because i'm in pain, i have a sore throat, i feel feverish and my whole body aches...

ok, enough complaining for now...

Winter recital song

2006-10-14T15:34:00.000-04:00

There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But you sing to me over and over and over again

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now, you're my only hope

Sing to me the song of the stars
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again

I give you my destiny
I'm giving you all of me
I want your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs
I'm giving it all i have

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now, you're my only hope

-Only Hope,
by Mandy Moore,
from A Walk to Remember

2006-10-02T21:54:00.000-04:00

I call, You hear me
I've lost it all
And it's more then I can bear
I feel so empty
You're strong,
I'm weary
I'm holding on
But I feel like giving in
But still You're with me

And even though I'm walking
Through the valley of the shadow
I will hold tight to the hand of Him
Whose love will comfort me
And when all hope is gone
And I've been wounded in the battle
He is all the strength that I will ever need
He will carry me

I know I'm broken
But You alone
Can mend this heart of mine
You're always with me

And even though I'm walking
Through the valley of the shadow
I will hold tight to the hand of Him
Whose love will comfort me
And when all hope is gone
And I've been wounded in the battle
He is all the strength that I will ever need
He will carry meHe will carry me

And even though I feel so lonely
Like I have never been before
You never said it would be easy
But You said You'd see me through the storm

And even though I'm walking
Through the valley of the shadow
I will hold tight to the hand of Him
Whose love will comfort me
And when all hope is gone
And I've been wounded in the battle
He is all the strength that I will ever need
He will carry me
He will carry me
He will carry me

He will carry me

You Know You're Addicted to Lord of the Rings When ...

2006-09-12T21:53:00.000-04:00

. . .

You start quoting from the movie as part of regular conversation.
(I do this half the time)

You like to tell your mom that you are hungry by quoting: "Merry, I'm hungry."
(I have done this before)

She used to just laugh, but now she says, "What would you like to eat, Pippin?"

You continually ask your parents for second breakfast.
(have done before)

All the staff at your local cinema knows you by your first name and even before you open your mouth to speak, they say "Ticket for 'Fellowship of The Ring?'"

You hate Burger King food, but you ate nothing else for a month to get the toys.

You've crammed up your computer's memory by downloading every single screensaver from www.LordoftheRings.net

You wander around the house in a knee length nightie, pajama trousers and an unfastened dressing gown (to give you a train). You are trying to be an elf, and actually manage to forget that the nightie is blue with dolphins, the trousers have teddies on and the dressing gown is tartan.
(no...but it sounds like something i'd do if i got bored enough)

Your Lord of the Rings shirt has not yet met the washing machine.
(ewwwwwww that's just disgusting!)

You don't have enough money to buy groceries for the next week before payday, yet you charge $50 on your credit card to get a three year charter membership in the official LOTR fan club. Who needs food anyway?

You refer to parts of your town as parts of Middle-Earth.

You wear hobbitish clothing as part of your normal wardrobe.

You sometimes let your hair go curly after a wash, and then run around the house in bare feet yelling "I'm a hobbit!"
(haha no, but that would be fun...besides, my hair doesnt go curly...at all)

You hate it when Elves are only thought of as 'Santa's little helpers' and have tried to explain the difference between Santa-elves and Sidarin Elves to your 5-year old cousins.
(no, but i do hate it when they're only associated with santa)

You speak in Quenya just to annoy your friends.

You refer to regular elephants as oliphaunts.

You renamed your car the Wraith-mobile.

You have a replica of The One Ring.
(....from Monopoly)

You are beginning to resemble a panda due to the fact that you've stayed up until 2 am reading and re-reading the great books.

You have begun calling your husband / wife / girlfriend/ boyfriend / animal or kid my precioussss.
(have done before...siblings and pets)

You happily traveled over an hour to the next town to see "it" because that theater has a better sound system than the one 5 minutes down the road.

You have called every theatrical or specialty makeup company in town looking for pointy ear or hairy feet prosthetics.
Or posters...

You've worn your plastic "one ring" that came on your Legolas bookmark so much the gold is completely worn off.
(my Monopoly one isnt really gold anymore...)

You've begun drafting a letter to the Webster's dictionary people requesting that they include "Ringers" in their next edition.
I have added the MiddleEarth Language into my PC.

At Christmas time relatives find you chatting with the tree and sharing eggnog draughts

Single ads with the description," short plump and big hairy feet" seem much more appealing.

You know The LoTR history better then your family history.
(most of the time)

You have a mouse named Frodo, a bird named Gollum, and a dog named Gandalf. And that cat that keeps coming around to be petted is Legolas.
(haha! too many animals to name like that)

You know Elvish better then English.

Whenever something goes wrong, it's Sauron's fault.
(occasionally)

When you sing in the shower, it's always about Gil-Galad or hobbit walking songs...

You know everything about Middle Earth geography, but you can't get someone from your house to the ice cream parlor. Now the nearest movie theater, that is a different story.

You think the names of the 7 dwarves from Snow White are: Gimli, Gloin, Thorin, Fili, Kili, Ori, and Bambour.
(yes)

You have developed your own special Tolkien handwriting. "A firm, flowing script..."

Every time you see birds in the sky you have the urge to say "Fly you fools!"
(YES! And "Crabain, from Dunland!")

When someone knocks on your door you grab them, pull them inside and ask "Are you frightened?... Not nearly frightened enough!"
(i have done this before)

Your computer's screensaver is a marquee reading, "Ennyn Durin atan Moria: pedo mellon a mino" and the password is actually "mellon".

You cannot see a beer without blurting out "It comes in pints? I'm getting one!"

(haha, that has come to mind before when i've washed my face)

Your wedding band has started to weigh you down with it's evil powers.

Spending $35 at the grocery store seems expensive but its Perfectly fine to spend $70 on the Hardcover LOTR book with Alan Lee Illustrations.

You start keeping a LOTR Journal to write poems and inklings in.

You face every difficult decision with the thought "now what would Gandalf advise me to do?"

You know what Entmoot, Ent draught, or an Ent is for that matter

You've gained 20 pounds because you've started eating a "Second Breakfast"

A walking stick... you never leave home with out it.

You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends who are addicted to Lord of the Rings.

My current song obssession...

You know where to find me
by Matthew West

I saw your sky fall down today
Suddenly turn from blue to gray
'Til one by one the raindrops
Turned to tears upon your face
Wish there was something I could do
Wish I could ease the pain from you
But I've never felt so helpless
It's like you're drowning right in front of me
And I'm reaching out but you can't see
There's something holding on to you so tight
So I guess this is all I'll say to you tonight

If you ever need me
You know where to find me
I will be waiting
Where I've always been
If you ever need me
You know where to find me
I have never left you
I'm where I've always been
Right by your side
Right by your side

If the whole wide world is on your back
If the strength you need is the strength you lack
If you're in a crowd but all alone
If you can't stay here but you can't go home
If you can't answer all the whys
'Cause you're too tired to reach that high
I want you to remember

If you ever need me
You know where to find me
I will be waiting
Where I've always been
If you ever need me
You know where to find me
I have never left you
I'm where I've always been
Right by your side
Right by your side

If the whole wide world is on your back
If the strength you need is the strength you lack
If you're in a crowd but all alone
If you can't stay here but you can't go home
If you can't answer all the why's
'Cause you're too tired to reach that high
I want you to
I need you to remember

If you ever need me
You know where to find me
I will be waiting
Where I've always been
If you ever need me
You know where to find me
I have never left you
I'm where I've always been
Right by your side
Right by your side

2006-08-21T21:38:00.001-04:00

...Something for you all to think about before you, yet again, bring up your stupid...pesty...annoying..."Go to college, or you'll never be anything" remarks...

Should girls go to college?

"...In society today, very few people give a second thought after graduation to whether or not they will go to college. It is usually just a given. You graduate from high school, you go to college.

Though this may be the widely accepted pathway, is this God's route for us as Christians? If you were stranded on a desert island and all you had was the word of God to base your decisions upon, would it change some of what you believe and do? How has the world's methodology influenced your thinking and practice?

In the past few years, we have seen many young people who appeared to be wise beyond their years go away to college and seemingly lose everything their parents taught them. We have seen them turn their back on God and break their parents hearts. After witnessing such things, we began really thinking through the whole college experience in light of God's Word.

God created women to be the a help meet for men (Genesis 2:18). Women are not only created to be the help meet for man, they are created to be under the authority of a man (Ephesians 5:22, Colossians 3:18, 1 Timothy 2:12). Scripture is clear that fathers and husbands are to be the heads of their household (1 Corinthians 11:3) and that wives are to submit to their husbands (Ephesians 5:22). How does college prepare a young woman for any of those things?"

...No, I am not going to college or furthering my education in any way after I graduate...No, I do not know what I am going to do after I graduate, and yes it does bother me...and you all being idiots to me isn't helping any.
Now leave me the heck alone...before I really tell you what I think about you all being pests...

Some funny stuff...

Random things

2006-08-19T21:45:00.000-04:00

I just had a random urge to blog..but then i realized, that i have abosolutely nothing to blog about. . . so here's a few random things that I have discovered with the Chetballs. . .

Bugs are evil.

Sonic just needs to get rid of their weird drink menu because... I don't know about you, but Chocolate Blue Coconut Dr. Pepper just sounds freaking disgusting to me.

Ducks like to chase wesome people...they dont like oweo ice cream...and old men like to sit around on picnic tables and talk about zucchini bread while they're being yelled at by said ducks.

Wendy's oweo ice cream isnt good, and neither is McDonalds.

Wendy's employees don't really like it when you make bombs out of oweo bags...then explode them all over the table.

Earrings and a red beard on a guy....don't look good. . . . .

Football is pointless.

...Chet secretly wants to be a biker...he just doesn't know it yet... :D

...We are wesome hooligans...

. . .

2006-08-09T22:05:00.000-04:00

wow...am I ever behind... :D

*just as a note to all who read this..and even if you don't, you're expected to know what this says* . . . Do NOT! *I repeat* DO NOT! Ask me what I am doing after I graduate, or where i'm going to collge, why i'm not going to college, and dont badger/yell/give lectures/scold me/anything else...about college, or anything that comes after graduate... (you all waaaaay overkill those topics, and i'm tired of it) I might know what I'm going to do, and I might not, and if i do, then i wont tell you, because you've bugged the heck out of me about it for so long... :P

lol

Dollar General
ok, so....I am not working at DG anymore. That turned from a part time job...into almost a full time one...so needless to say I wasn't getting much schoolwork done..I ended up with three times the work load that I should have had, along with running the register...and to top that off everyone there was absolutely horrible to me..so after a long story short, I got fed up with it. *shrugs* what to do?

School
I've been massively behind *see above*, but I'm pretty much caught up...and will most likely be finished in 2 1/2-3 months...depends how much of hooligan laziness comes up.... :D

Medical...
After a long drawn out medical story and long stories about dumb doctors..I have Pleurdynia...a virus that attacks and kills the muscles in the ribcage area...
The dumb doctors couldn't do anything *rolls eyes, of course* except give me a medicine that could barely cover the pain. So Terphs mom, furthermore known at Auntie G...who is a license natural health specialist (..or soemthing like that), found some medicines to help me..and castor oil packs for the pain. Which are totally working. :D

Saturday
...We (being the family and I) went to Lexington to Calens hospitals annual cancer survivor picnic...yeah...I was bored, but I let the sibs drag me onto the big blow up slides and toys they had, and that made them happy...and the wesome called me..so it was ok. I also managed to talk calen and zachary into getting face paint, on their arms...but the catch was that I had to do it also, so I got a butterfly...after that we went to Michaels, where I bought some canvases, then to the hobby store..Then came the trip home, we were almost to the highway..we stop at a stop light...and SMASH!!!11 Someone decides to smash into the back of Vinny...poor Vinny...and poor mine and moms necks...ouch.

Hmmmmm
ok...*thinks*...
I just realized that there hasn't been much mention of the Wesome on here... *wont' let me upload pic....* Anyway...Wesome hooligan time comes on the weekend, and is spent going to the park, getting chased and attacked by ducks, getting oreo ice cream, skittles, making fun of wierd peoples, killing off stupid people, and making oreo bag bombs in wendys... haha
...Tuesday was the first piano lesson back from the break... yeah.
I have lots of pics to post...whenever blogger will let me...*sigh*

. . .I think that pretty much sums it all up. . .

*off to bed now* yawn...

A very wesome song. *minus the bleep*

Because of You

I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way, to never let it get that far

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake, a smile, a laugh
Every day of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I watched you die
I heard you cry
Every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry
In the middle of the night
For the same **** thing

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I tried my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid

Because of you
Because of you

Psalm 40

I will wait for you oh Lord
Because you have filled my heart with joy
You lift me higher and higher
Lord my one and only desire

Chorus:
You put a newsong in my mouth
Here’s my praise to you
All I wanna do is wake up
Spend my days with You
You put a newsong in my mouth
Here’s my praise to you

You put my feet on the rock Lord
I’ll put my trust in you sing a newsong
Sing a newsong, yeah

I will wait for you oh Lord
Because you have filled my heart with joy
You lift me higher and higher
Lord my one and only desire

Chorus:

You put my feet on the rock Lord
I’ll put my trust in you sing a newsong
Sing a newsong, yeah

Maybe we’ll see you and fear you Lord
Put our trust in you
Maybe we’ll see you and fear you Lord
Put our trust in you
Sing a newsong

Chorus:

I will wait
I will wait for you
I will wait
I will wait for you

Lots of stuff

2006-02-02T18:12:00.000-05:00

The Lord of the Rings Exhibition was awesome! I was kind disappointed about how much stuff they didn't have. But it was still awesome. The costumes they had were, Aragorn, Legolas, Arwen, Gandalf (the grey), Kind Theoden, Sauraman, the Dark Lord, Frodo (the miniature one, for his double), and the same with Pippin and Merry's. Aragorn's costume was muddy, and ripped on the shoulder. If you haven't seen the movie, then you don't get the whole ripped shoulder thing. :D They had the Plantir, Sauramans relics, and pretty much all of the jewelry. They had the One Ring, which we (being Kris, Steph, and I) decided that it definitley wasn't the one they used in the movie. It was 14 karat gold, it was displayed in a room by itself, surrounded by cameras, and had a security guard that looked like he'd kill you if you breathed near it. Yeah. They had Borimir's wax sculpture (in the boat with the broken horn and everything). It looked so real, it was creepy. Except for the fact that, in the movie he was shot three times, but there were only two arrow holes. I wanted to kick someone, it totally ruined it. They had this big sculpture of a scene from FotR, when the cave troll breaks through the tomb door in Moria. It, of course, had the cave troll, and goblins hanging off the wall. They had it in a dark corner, with blue lights, it was really wierd, but it totally felt like you were inside the movie. They also had the cameras like they used in the movie, to scale Gandalf and Frodo to the right sizes, when they were sitting in the wagon together. They took pictures of everyone. We got like six different pictures, and if Steph and/or Kris EVER scan and send them to me, I'll put them up here. AND! OMG! They told us that We would be seeing RotK on IMAX. . . But it ended up NOT BEING THE FULL I MAX FRAME. I was so mad I almost stormed out of the theatre.

The rest of the week I was in Ohio we hung out, being dumb, and taking dumb pictures. And on Stephs birthday we went and saw King Kong, went out to dinner and TGI Fridays, and paid an arm and two legs, for our food. Then we went to the Festival of Lights at the Cincinnati Zoo. My Aunt (Stephs mom) got free tickets somewhere, so we totally didn't have to pay. So that was cool.

When I got back home, I slept for a week straight, not really. Then on Tuesday, the tenth, to Wednesday the 11th, I went to Alabama with Ab-normal, and her family. Her parents has business stuff to do, so Ab-normal, her little sister, and I stayed in the hotel the whole time. As we couldn't leave the hotel, duh! There was totally a mall across the parking lot from the hotel, and we had to see it from our bedroom window...If we could have left, that would have been awesome, even though we didn't have any money. Anyway, the hotel had an indoor pool. So we were in the pool the WHOLE time! I probably still smell like chlorine. I washed my bathing suit the day after I got home, and it's still stinking up my closet.

I talked with the Dollar General manager again. And I start work sometime this month, after they get their hours back. The head people cut their hours way back, and everyone hardly has any hours.

That's up to date enough for now!

I'm back! I got back Friday afternoon at about 2:30-ish. The Lord of the Rings Exhibition was awesome! I'm waiting for Kris to send me the main pictures, then I'll have a full update. And I survived the rest of my week in the city. . . just barely though. :D After I got back friday afternoon, I had a job interview at Dollar General. The manager sent the papers into the head people. And if they decided that I'm not some terrorist set out to destroy their store, then I'm hired. I got a tour, instructions on how to do everything, and was told to buy my "uniform". If anyone knows where to buy a blue polo shirt (short sleeved) in the middle of the winter, let me know!

My Christmas present from Kris and Steph, is a trip to Indiapolis, on Monday the 26th (almost two days!), to see The Lord of the Rings Exhibition. We get to see Return of the King in the IMAX theatre, and get to walk around the exhibit for about three hours. Then we sleep of the floor or something..... anyway. lol I found some of the....official (?) pics to post. We're supposedly not allowed to take pics inside the exhibit, so these will probably be the only ones you'll see. HMPH! No pics......

"I Can Only Imagine"

I can only imagine what it will be like
When I walk by your side
I can only imagine what my eyes will see
When your face is before me
I can only imagine
I can only imagine

(Chorus next)
Surrounded by your glory
What will my heart feel?
Will I dance for you Jesus?
Or in awe of you be still?
Will I stand in your presence?
Or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing hallelujah?
Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine
I can only imagine

I can only imagine when that day comes
When I find myself standing in the Sun
I can only imagine when all I will do
Is forever, forever worship you
I can only imagine
I can only imagine

(chorus 2x)(ad-lib)

I can only imagine (4x)
I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever, forever worship you
I can only imagine.

One of my favorite songs.

I Need You

I don't need a lot of things
I can get by with nothing
Of all the blessings life can bring
I've always needed something
But I've got all I want
When it comes to loving you
You're my only reason
You're my only truth

I need you like water
Like breath, like rain
I need you like mercy
From heaven's gate
There's a freedom in your arms
That carries me through
I need you

You're the hope that moves me
To courage again
You're the love that rescues me
When the cold winds, rage
And it's so amazing
'Cause that's just how you are
And I can't turn back now
'Cause you've brought me too far

I need you like water
Like breath, like rain
I need you like mercy
From heaven's gate
There's a freedom in your arms
That carries me through
I need you
Oh yes I do

I need you like water
Like breath, like rain
I need you like mercy
From heaven's gate
There's a freedom in your arms
And it carries me through
I need you
Oh yes I do
I need you

2005-11-25T21:37:00.000-05:00

When we were little, my cousins Steph, and Nate and I, would visit our grandparents together. We would always sit at their dining room table, drink hot chocolate, and tell stories. We would tell these stories, by each of us taking turns saying one word at a time. For an example, we would say, "once" "upon" or "once" "there" "was". And we would always say the first word that popped into our minds. *Good times!*
Get it? Good. :D Nate and I were talking earlier, about how we missed those old times. So we decided to do it again. Minus the grandparents table, and hot chocolate. :D Here's what we got.

Once there was a box, that had flowers under it.
I loved my dog, untill he ran into a fence.
When he bit mom, she screamed "MOOSE!".
After ten hours I laughed.
77 flowers said "CAT!".
The End.

Once a llama licked my ear. I ran around so my shoe jumped
out of the pool. 24 days ago the wind blew over a cow.
When I woke up I stepped on a elephant. He didn't know
that Jim Carey was in town. Untill Jim thought of green peas.
He then smashed 22 acorns on him.
The End.

Dating

2005-11-14T22:26:00.000-05:00

People(no names)have been pestering me about dating. And it makes me really mad. So I'm going to vent. You might want to read this, and you might not. Some of it might not be very nice. But they asked for it. I waited six days to blog this, so I wouldn't sound extremely mean.

Pestering people say:
Why don't you have a boyfriend? You DON'T have a boyfriend!? You DON'T date? Why NOT!? Why don't you date!? You MEAN you haven't met that special someone? You haven't? YOU DON'T!"

I say, pretending to be nice:
"Nope. No. I sure don't. Nope."

I say, but not to their face.>>FREAKING NO! OK! I DON'T DATE! I DON'T WANT TO DATE. SO JUST. . .FREAKING SHUT UP ABOUT IT AND GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!<<

Pestering people say:
"You mean, you don't date? At all?"

I say once again, pretending to be nice:
"No"

Pestering people say:
"OoOoOH well. . .That's too bad!"
*turns and walks away*

I THINK PESTERING PEOPLE (NO NAMES) NEED TO JUST FREAKING MIND THEIR OWN FREAKING BUSINESS! SINCE I TRY TO EXPLAIN I SEE NO POINT IN DATING, AND I DON'T WANT TO. BUT. NO! DO THEY LISTEN? THEY'D RATHER FREAKING PESTER ME!

YEAH.

Ohio

2005-09-23T11:39:00.000-04:00

Saturday (the 17th)I went to Ohio to see my new cousin, Anya Sophia(Stephs new sister), with my grandparents. We left at 6:00 in the morning. yawn. Then I went to sleep (sound familiar?). At 7:30 we stopped at Bob Evans in Richmond for breakfast. Then I slept some more (Sound familiar again?) and did some algebra. lol

I have a pic of the Cincinatti skyline, but it wouldnt upload onto here! Just picutre thousands of very large builings on an overcast day. lol

Crossing the river. LoL

The Bengals Stadium.

Ha. I love this tunnel. It's muy interesting.

The last fifteen minutes of the ride was pretty boring. lol We finally got there, at about 10:30. I had to wake Steph and Kris up. Sound familiar? lol When they FINALLY got out of bed, they went to Skips Bagel Deli (for breatkfast), and I watched them eat(since I was still full from my ginormous breakfast at Bob Evans).

When we got back (to Stephs house), I saw Anya for the first time. She's adorable! Caroline (Steph and Anyas sister), is holding her in this pic. I love this picture!

Then we sat around for a while and tried to figure something out to do. We decided on going to the animal shelter, and then to the movies, so see Just Like Heaven. So we headed out in Tink, Kristens jeep. That Silas stole the TinkerBell atenna topper off of! And went to the animal Shelter. We looked at all the dogs, the rabbits, hampsters, gerbils, then the cats. The next picture pretty much shows how that cat felt about his cage.

This is one of the cats that kept batting at the padlock on his cage.

Heres another one batting at Kristens hand.

Then we headed to the movies. We bought our tickets, then walked around Hallmark, laughing at all the dumb gag gifts. lol Then Kristen and I joined the Army. The movie was supposed to start at 1:30, we got in there at 1:15, and it had already started! Way for it to start when it's supposed to. . .

Then we went to the river, either before crashing at Stephs, or after. I don't remember. lol Anyway, at the river, we bought snow cones. I got a pink lemonade one. But it wasnt pink, and it didnt taste like lemons!

Later on we went to the park to swing. . .untill the kids came over and stood there staring at us. lol Guess they wanted them back. After we got back to Stephs, Kris left, and we watched Sleepover. Which was dumb, but funny. That night, Steph and Kris found out that they're good at making fun of Jake and Dustin.

Sunday

Kris wouldnt wake up.

So we went to Skips again, to pick up breakfast, in our pajams, by ourselves. lol After Kris finally woke up and left. We did nothing. . . Except have a one sided conversation with Dillon, and and most likely scared him to death. . .And Steph made our hair look like fountains.

We left at about 2:30, and got home at like 6:30.

Painting my room

2005-09-16T19:44:00.000-04:00

Saturday night(the 3rd, before pics.

After I took these, I took everything off the walls. Then Dad helped me patch the holes. I took the hammer to them, lol that was fun, and he filled them in.
That night I slept on my matress on the floor, so I wouldnt mess up the holes we patched.

Sunday
I completely emptied my room, except for my bed frame and vanity, which were moved to the side. Then I patched a few more holes, and with Hannahs help, I dried them with the blow dryer. LoL

Sunday evening
I put on the first coat, with Dad and Mom's help. Since none of my so-called friends would come help me. . .

Monday
I started the second coat in the afternoon, and finished it just before 10:30 that night. I slept in the school room. LoL

Tuesday
I touched up what needed to be fixed. And I moved back in.

After pics.

Now you all have to come over and hang out! :D

I just finished painting my room caribbean blue (turqoise as the store likes to call it) about 20 minutes ago, it took two hours to put one coat on. lol It took me like three hours to empty my room. I'm temporarily living in the school room, you cant walk through it. LoL I have to second coat it in the morning. Then I can move back in tomorrow night, if the fumes are gone, or I have to wait until Tuesday morning. I've been taking a lot of pictures of the progress, I'll post them later this week.

I go Friday to the oral surgeon for a visit about my wisdom teeth. I went like a year and a half ago, the surgeon gave me the choice of having it, or not. So I didn't. LoL I have to do it this time, before I turn 18 and lose my insurance, and have to pay for it. I'm not looking forward to it. But I get to live on mashed potatoes and pudding, so I'm sure I'll survive. :D

Saturday was my neighbor, E's birthday party. We had cake, and all the usual party stuff. E's friend A, whom I'd met a week or so ago, was there. E got a lot of new stuff for her room, so we helped her get it all in order.

That night we slept over. We stayed up untill midnight, taking pictures, being dumb and eating pixie sticks.

Me and E.

Arby's, Surfing, and Stuff

2005-08-15T22:34:00.000-04:00

"You know what...I'm just not going to even try to analyze my delicious box of Arby's curly fries. No, I'm just going to allow myself to experience the pure joy of something as perfect as a fry getting more perfect (perfect-er?} and more delicious by becoming...curly." LoL My brother works at Arby's now. When we stopped in Saturday to bother him, I saw a guy posing like this on the paper, that comes on your tray. I thought it was funny, so I imitated him, while numerous people looked at me like I was insane.

Surfs up. (No, ~Abnormal, I did not just randomly start surfing on the washer, I'm not that crazy. :D) The light fixture in my room broke saturday, so I had to get to the top shelf to get another one. I was trying to balance myself, and it looked like I was surfing, so I was like "surfs up", and mom had to get the camera.

School

This is my last year of high school, that sounds crazy, I can't believe it. I think I finally decided to try and graduate by next summer. If I don't get lazy with my work. :D I've also decided to stop taking college prep, since I decided I have no intention of going to college, and probably never will. As for what I'm going to do after I graduate, I have absolutely no idea.

If anyone has missed me on MSN, its because it hasn't let me sign in for like two weeks. So you'll have to call me if you want to talk to me that bad. :D

2005-07-27T10:18:00.000-04:00

I'm at the library, there is a guy across from me who looks JUST like Peter Furler! Isnt that the greatest thing ever?! >>His head is VERYbald, and VERY shiny<< LoL Now I not only have a neighbor that looks JUST like him, theres someone else in this county. Haha. I think thats great. :D For those of you who don't know Peter Furler is from a christian band, the Newsboys.

So that'll be cool. >>Peter Fuler just got up and walked to another table. He was leaving, but he left his sunglasses by the compy. LoL he came back and got them, now he's gone!<<
Grannys talking to some strange guy. I don tknow hwo he is, but apparently she knows him. :D Now I'm just talking with nothing to say. So I'm going to stop before I scare anyone. I'll just go. . . and bother granny! Yeah, thats it!
