So, here we are again, me and you, you and me, both of us together!Anywho, I am going to blog about what I learned from to 18 year olds, and some old guy they call their dad.
It all started today when I went to the REBELution Tour in Richardson TX. It was me, Connie, Robbie, Jason and my mom, oh yeah...and Mr. Bubble Popper (He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named...or you can call him Brian...but whatevs.). So we went to this Youth Conference, It was at this freakin humongus church that had foreign Fish in their walls!..Wow. So we went, and these twin guys named Alex and Brett Harris(who are only 18) came and spoke...because, well...Its their conference. They spoke on how so little is expected uf us as teenagers and yet we cant even measure up to what little we are expected to to, and that is why Adults look down on us...because we are lazy and we even have low expectations for ourselves. So they challenged us to "Do Hard Things" (which happened to be the slogan) and I was really inspired by what they had to say, and I think hearing such passion come from two Seniors in HS made all the difference for me. I though...I hope thats me. and it was very empowering and challenging, I strongly suggest visiting the website (http://www.therebelution.com) and looking at the tour dates to find an area near you where they will be speaking. I know that you will love it, and I hope you get as much out of it as I did. Thanks for listening, I will be posting later, but m gonna go swim...dads getting in for the first time this summer!Bye for now!! Love you all!

Okay, so, funny subj. huh? yeah, heres the story behind that. Today I was playing (or attempting to play) basketball with this guy named Taylor (last name confidential). So here I was trying to make a "swish" shot. He tried to show me how to do it, but he failed...as did I. Anyways, we were playing B-Ball and I was about to make my ah-mazing shot (which I was hoping would "Swish" ) when I realized he was behind me, and when I turned around , he was staring at my legs! When I real;ized this I got this rush that I always get when I am around him, and I go "What are you staring at?" and he goes
"You have the longest legs I have ever seen in my life"
I couldve dies right there, for a second i hope he was admiring me, but no, he was thinking about my haneously long legs. aaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! grr. Oh yeah then when I turned around and kicked him in the butt, Cash (last name here) drove up with two girls in his little...4-wheeler sorta thing. ...
I melted right on the spot.
gosh, why does he have to be so freaking hott!? oh well, Ill never have him ...hey people! Let me dream! So Taylor started talking to him and all then he came back, Cash left with those two lucky girls with him, and we continued playing ball. Then Taylor was like
"Dont you think hes hott?"
"who?"
"Cash."
"Oh, was he here!? I didn't even notice him..."
"Whatever! You did too!"
"oh no, I didn't, but yeah, I guess hes okay, I don't take a particular liking to him though..."
"sure you dont."
" Whats the point in getting my hopes up? Ill never have him even if i did like him a little bit"
oh heres the part that made me quite upset with Mr. Taylor (last name here)
"GET OVER IT!"
Taylor told me to get over it! Doesn't he know I don't just get over things?! I work around them till I get my way, DUH!!! then when I told him to stop teasing me about my legs, and he said it again! ugh, ill have to teach him a lesson Sunday. Oh well, I have to go, im mad....I need to shop. bye! I off to shop!

Okay, so here I am at my little desk in the middle of freaking nowhere, getting ready to post out my deepest thoughts and remarks to the with the wide world web of millions of people who could probably care less about what I have to say, but needless. WHO CARES!!! Im gonna tell you guys anyways, and if you don't wanna read it then...why have you read this far???whatevs. Hear it goes.
So, only a few brief moments ago I was typing away on my latest post (which happened to be about tonights youth group session) and then something utterly horrendous ocurred...my computer shut down!!! It was so disappointing!!! because everything was going great and I was connected at 58.5 and it was loading like lightning and not disconnecting and I was in one of my nightly typing frenzy here for you good people, when it shut down! However, I must take the blame, It was entirely my fault because I moved my legs to stretch them out to make myself a bit more comfortable when I bumped the switch and the computer shut down then rebooted. Gosh, the rewards of my location, it took forever to get back here to let you know the deal of my life...which happens to suck : ) The Rewards of my location you ask?....Dialup. I hate it, I am used to nice, lightning cable internet and cable TV...but not anymore...its broadcast TV and dialup for me...but whatever...theres no use complaining about what you just cant change (except for those times when you are so so bored and there is nothing else to do but complain and clean the house...its an obvious choice) so I try to do my best to be an Optimist.
On a lighter note... my Cherry Garcia Connie just got a Livejournal...Kudos to you Connie! YYYAAYYY! now my two best friends in the whole wide world have Livejournal...I love you guys, you are my reason for life! (that was for Annie and Connie, and of you pervs out there dont get a bad idea...chuckie) I love my friends....they are what gives me the energy to wake up each morning...them and God...God first of course...but you guys understand right? good. So...Here is where I should probably leave you for tonight...on a optimistic mood, I have to teach Vacation Bible School with Connie at 8 in the morning and my fam probably wants to sleep without the clicking of my keyboard int eh background. I love you all please comment!

okay, so here we are.
I am journaling once more, I need to keep this up!
Now here I am in the middle of freaking nowhere (i.e my house) blogging on the internet with nothing better to do. I have my house, not neccesarily the house, but mainly the location, its way way way way way out in the country with no sign of current life other than out little house that is 5 miles away from the road. They don't even have sidewalks!!!I mean come on!!! What!? Is a sidewalk too classy for them or something! come on! a freaking sidewalk!!! geez! Oh well, I need to pee, but I can hold it because I am in a typing frenzy here!
Now I have another Organization Obsession. Its To Write Love On Her Arms(http://www.twloha.com/the_story.ph p). Its a very good faith-based Organization to help girls stop cutting. and my other obsession as you all know (or maybe just those who really do know me) is Invisible Children(www.invisiblechildren.com). It is to help homeless children in Africa, these kids as young as five are kidnapped and brainwashed to kill for this crazy guy who thinks hes god or something, then they go and kill. But the ones who do escape are now homeless and hungry and cold, and they have no education and no idea where they are or which way is home and its just so so so so so sad. I have a bracelet from their store online. But you know, watching things like this just really makes you feel like...(pardon my French) shit. Because they don't even have enough blankets for everyone and here we are sitting in air conditioned homes with a TV and a computer and enough food and furniture to house a whole freaking country for a year, and we do nothing!!! Come on!are you really that freaking selfish! Whatever, People, I am not saying that I do everything that I can either, but please, have a heart! Recognize the cause!
Anyways, Im really bored, and I need to pee still,
Im bored.
and here I am at my computer blogging out my innermost feelings for everyone to read...
In My Little House...
In the Middle of Freaking Nowhere.
Love!---

Hello my good people!, London!, New York City!, Paris, Rome!, Hong Kong! I LOVE you all!,
Yes! I am back and ready to Rock and Roll! Wow, Its nice to be posting again. You forget how much fun it is to have one of these until you...Have it again? Whatevs, you catch my words right? Well, my Birthday passed last month, I am also out of school for the summer! WOOHOO! YEAH! okay, well, enough of that. Naomi finally had her surgery and healed. Yes, it has been that long. I saw her the day of the surgery, now I am her teacher for Vacation Bible School.She is such a pain sometimes, I love her to death, but would a good kick in her tiny booty hurt now and then? I think not, but her mother thinks much different that I do now, doesn't she??? Yes, last night, I had the weirdest dream! I was walking the red Carpet, hand in hand with Adam Brody, when all of a sudden, some random girl walks up and hands me a Bouquet of Roses, then some Photographers and fans are throwing flowers of all kinds at me (mostly Yellow roses, seeing as how those are my absolute favorite flower), when one rose (it happened to be a BLACK one) hits me in the face, and its large thorn stabbed my eye!!!!! I screamed in pain (you know, the kind of scream they have in old black&white Horror films?) and I fell to the carpet (Red Carpet, Just to clarify) and Adam was all "Whats wrong Dear?" and I (oh so bravely) pointed at a UGLY girl the was behind the velvet rope, and said "She did it! she threw that rose at me !!!!!! The one that has now blinded me for no one knows how long! Help! Quickly! Get her and see that justice is done!" But OH NO!! she wouldn't have none of that! She waved her hand and a cloud of smoke appeared around a portal-like ring and she stepped through it and was no longer seen! The portal had not yet closed so I then got up with a groan (still covering my eye with one hand) and ran through the crowd, jumping the rope like an Olympic runner! Then I dove through the portal just as it was closing. I suddenly felt dizzy! I looked around with my good eye and saw swirls of the outer world! everything started spinning! faster and faster and FASTER AND FASTER AND FASTER!!!...then i woke up. But it was my Cats Fault. She was drinking from my water glass again and knocked it over, then the water ran off my headboard onto my head! it was cold. I said "CHLOE DARLING! What are you doing! get off my headboard now you stupid adorable, inconsiderate, oh so cute kitty!" But whatever, It was good right?! I must leave you for now! Have a nice evening! Goodbye!

okay so if you read the first entry from yesterday, then you know all about my neice who was SUPPOSED to have her hernia operated on yesterday. Well, heres what i know about it, Stacy, (Naomis Mom) and Jason (my sort-of Brother)get there with Naomi and Ethan (Naomis baby brother) got to Childrens Medical Center and the doctors were "prepping" her for the surgery when they noticed (dun dun duuuunnnnn)....A DIAPER RASH!!!!!!! lol, anyways, they sent her home untill it clears up because they were afraid that it would spread during the surgery and she would get very sick. Personally, i dont understand how a diaper rash would spread anywhenre but in her diaper (diaperaial???) area. But you know, im not exactly a brain surgeon or anything, so i wouldnt know 100%. Wow, i cant belive i just admitted that.anyways, i think i am getting sicker, and i also think that im allergic to my car or something, because the past few days anytime im in the car and its moving, i get really sick to my stomach.I got home yesterday, and i totally crashed untill dinner. yeah, i walked straight into my room when i got home at like 4:00, then my dad came in and woke me up when American Idol came on.I was sooooo surprised when sanjaya made it over Sundance!!! and when Haley made it over Antonella.I mean, everyone knew that Antonella wouldnt make it as THE American Idol, but surely Haley would have gone home over Antonella!!!! I mean Come on America!!!! why???!!! WHY!!!!!! I DONT FREAKIN UNDERSTAND!!!!!! WHY DIDNT YOU SEND HALEY HOME!!!!! geeeeez!!! gosh!!! sometimes i swear. well, anyways, i like someone else, because the person i used to like, likes someone else....so i really dont like them anymore anyways, i need to decide who i like now or i will be....likeless? So yeah,maybe i just dont like anyone right now. oh well, i guess thats okay for right now. But i really feel funny not liking anyone.I love this song. Its Hated by Nikki Cleary, i have it on my Mean Girls Soundtrack. lol.....it cracks me up everytime i hear it. I had totally forgot about it untill untill Hannah Andrews reminded me, so i pulled my CD back out and stated listening to it again, its pretty funny. Oh well, im running out of room so id better go.... anyways, ill try to get back on in Penrods class later today. whateves...tootles everyone!!!

Okay, so everyone reading this better read fast...or maybe i should just typr fast. Yeah, i should just type fast, but thats beside the point right now. So im in photography, and if Pendrod catches me on the internet, lets just say, Im....stained silk. So here we go...Its now like uhh.....2:51 and i am freaking out about how my peanut is doing. She had her surgery and she is still in the hospital. ad is there...Im quite frankly disgusted with him at the moment. Well, I think ive been caught by the Penrod...so needless...I need to go.

so, last night i was up thinking about how cool it would be to be British, you know, with their accents that are to die for and everything, then i was like, i bet they sound funny when they have a cold.Then i started thinking about how my mom has to have surgery and everything and i was like, i wonder what she does when she is sick and home alone. Woah! Imagine! I mean i cant even begin to list the things i thought of last night. I meani was literally up all night! Which probably explains why im so tired today(maybe staying up wasnt such a good idea). So here we go again. Oh darn, I have Keener in like 14 minutes, so lets make this quick so i can get some good out of this morning. So today my 3 year old neice is having surgery like uhhhh, as we speak (oor type, whatever) . She has this awful Hernia that she has to have removed. So my pops was like, "would you like to go with her?" and i was all "Yeah thanks" and now hes like, "NO!!! You cant miss three periods of school!" I mean! COME ON POPS!!!!! Get a load of what youve just said! You told me i cant go and see my peanut in the Hopital when she has her surgery!!! Shes three years old for craps sake!!!I need to be there!!!!! Oh wait, heres the good part, now this morining he was all" Im going to go see her at 10:30" and I was like "Far out, now i can go!" and he goes "NO!!!" AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH He is seriously driving me crazy at this point, and i think im catching a cold!!! great, this is just peachy!!!! Very peachy!!! well, whatever, but i hope he doesnt expect me to be happy after school today when he wants me to walk down and fetch the mail. Well see what he says then.

hola everyone (u too annawrae)
Well coming back on Monday wasnt as bad as i had expected...only a few people (namely my mom and Best Friend) teased me about it...but no ....the hott one hasnt said anything. well, anyways, i am in school in the computer lab right now as i am posting this entry, so i rweally hope i dont get into any trouble...lets try to summ up yesterday real quick shall we? Okay, well my mom came to get me from school like 5 min early,(rush much?) and then we had to drive into Dallas to go to Baylor because my little sister has some weird wart growing on the inside of her foot. (gross...) and so we got there and they CUT IT OUT!!! right in front of me! I swear i almost passed out! I had to sit down where i couldnt see and read cosmo for like 20 minutes. Okay so ,well, enough about the gross part. So now for the next like 3 weeks i am gonna have to listen to Hanna complain about a hole in her foot, although i cant really complain bcause i myself am, a whimp to pain. maybe its genetic? (reminder to ask grandma if she is too). yeaah...i just had to do like a twelve slide powerpoint on the Civil War for mrs. Graves...yeah shes cool and all but ...the Civil War? COME ON Why cant they test us on the important stuff, like who invented chiffon, or who really made red lipstick the "in thing". well, now i should probably get off before the evil computer lady comes in, LOL.Until Whenever!
Ciao!,

PS.
I really do need to find out if that whole pain thing is genetic!
