The Start of March

Things have sure been crazy in my life and everything seems to be going full speed ahead. Right now we are registering for our new classes for the year to come and it's stressful. But really, the only thing I can think about is my Father. At the beginning of last month, he had complications with his defulator and has been out of work since. He said he will be going back very soon but maybe he hasnt had a long enough break. Though i have been avoiding contact with him, I do worry. I worry about his heart and how he is without my help, I also worry about his money. How can he pay for the medical bills? I don't want him to lose everything and I feel like everything that has happened to him these past few weeks have been my fault. Maybe if I had spent some of the 181 days I have been avoiding him, tried to make contact with him...I just want everyone to pray for him because I do love him.

Merry Christmas 2011

Hey guys, sorry it has been so long since i have posted...things have been very busy for me so i wanna take a few minutes to tell you about how i have been. Life as a teenage girl can suck sometimes and be very stressful but i have been hangin in there so no worries:). High School seems to be getting better and better! Though it's rough sometimes, it's what I look forward too! Especially when it's time for band :). That's my favorite part of the day:) being a sophomore is great but sooooooooo much unwanted drama but it shows you who your true friends really are. And with my friends, we enter together and come out even stronger. Nothing can touch us! And then there are the boys...Forget em'!!!!!! Things in that area have been bumpy but I think things work better for me when they are out of my life and focusing on my school work, the most important thing to me. Right now i have to go but I plan on posting tomorrow to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! Tomorrow I can go into more detail on how i have been...but right now my sister is reading what i'm typing over my shoulder...these things are none of her business and she won't understand but I think you know where i'm going with this haha! So Merry Christmas Eve everyone! Stay safe, love you all! :)

Birthday

Well guys, yesterday was my 15th birthday! THat's right, im 15 baby!!!! :D
I had a lot of fun and gots lots of cool things!! Like, from my dad I got Glee Karaoke. . . now i get to torchure my mom lol!!! And I got a fancy new backpack from my mom and Rick and I gots lots of things from my lil sister caitlyn and my bestfriends suprised me by showing up after I got home for a sleep over! It was probably the best party I have ever had! :)

A Break During My Break

Well, i am back from Missouri...and let me tell you, that was quite a trip...i'm not so sure if my mom would aprove of me saying what took place on my blog...i mean, it's not like many people see it, but it's still on the internet and...i don't know i just dont want to take any chances (and no, it's nothing dirty!!!!). But now that i'm back, i'm pretty sure i don't have anymore vacations planned...soooo...I guess you could say that I have a break on my break...that sounds kinda clever and stupid at the same time haha!!! THat's me, clever and stupid...but mostly clever...at least I like to think that haha!!!! But coming up this friday is my 15th birthday! That just means one more year until my sweet 16! :) and I know that my mother is definatly not looking forward to that haha! Then In the frst or second week of August (i can't remember), I have band camp! (and don't you dare even make a joke about that! It's so mean haha! Only band people are allowed to say that to eachother! And for those of you who don't know which joke i'm talking about, it's the one that goes "Like this one time at band camp") But band camp takes place at the highschool on the football field so it's even more fun because we to kick the football players off the field! It's hilarious! But all they have to do is walk like 50 feet the the grass field that's like right next store...so it's really not that big of a deal. And then at the end of August, I have highschool soccer try-outs; which i am incredibly nervous for...you seriously have no freaking idea hw scared i am...last year it was easier than I expected but this year there are going to be freshman devils who have been playing select for ever and that's just going to kill me. I mean, i played select for two years but I quite because it was too competitive and it was too much with school and it just wasn't as fun as it was...but whatever, i will do the best that I can and that will be all that counts and matters :) but that's what everyone has told me haha! Well I hoe to blog again very soon! Keep reading! There's more writing where that came from! :)

All my Love,

So Far This Summer

So far the summer has been busy and has gone by faster than I expected. I realize that I have not written a post in a while and I apologize, so, I will give you a summary of what I have done so far this summer; I webt to Eastern Washington to visit my grandparents and i had a wonderful time!!! We did so many fun things together! Next, I went to Portland for a few days to visit my Aunt and uncle and two cousins. We also had a blast together! We went to this donought shop called VooDoo Donought and they would cereal on top of the donought and omg, it was delish!!! And as i'm typong, i am in Missouri visiting my other grandparents! so far I have been having lots and lots of fun with them and my cousin and Aunt. We have done so much together that it's hard to list it all....but today I went to the Plaza which is like a huge mall but it's not one...it was amazing but it's been incredibly hot here...well it's time for me to go! I will write again very soon. Hopefully I get the chance to write when I get home.

Class of 2011

Today was the absolute final good-byes for our beloved class of 2011...we had an assembly dedicated just to them and let me say, someone needed to mop up the floor because of all the tears that were shed! I know that I cried..alot and I saw Dane cry and my friends and I all lost it at the same exact time, it's really hard to watch a tough guy like him cry and hugging all of his friends...but reall, who can blame the guy? The class of 2011 will never ever be forgotten in my book but I guess now it is time for the class of 2012 to step in and take the lead and i doubt they will we be able to top the 2011 graduates...have wonderful lives my friends and family! You will be missed no matter how obnoxious, rude and arrogant you were...you are still like family to us and we all love you.

Good Bye Seniors

Well, I guess this is the final good bye for the seniors to the rest of Glacier Peak...Honestly I am going to miss every one of you seniors terribly! Especially Dane Larsen. I will never forget you. I have to say, when you gave me a hug today, I immediatly froze...it meant so much to me and I was speechless. i still cannot thank you enough for what you did for me. It probably wasn't a big deal to you but believe me, it was huge for me because I didn't expect anyone to say anything and out of all the people that could have, it was you. The first time I saw you, i thought that you were obnoxious and annoying and then you stuck-up for a little freshman and practically saved my life. Who knows what would have happened if you hadn't walked around the corner...but i don't really like to think about that haha! I am just so thankful that you were there for me. I really hope that we get the chance to meet again in the very near future. I am going to miss you most out of everyone in the school...I know that's really wierd to say but it's the truth. So have fun with your life and please, for me, stay safe! I hope you have an amazing life and we are going to have to get together sometime becaue I have to see you again sometime!

Also, I would like to take time in this post to say good bye to a good friend of mine, Colby Hansen. You are really great and I am going to miss you as well. I hope we see eachother at albertsons more! As long as i don't have your number we probably will never talk again anad then I would be very sad haha!!!!! Well, I hope that you have an amazing life as well and I hope the wolrd treats you well! Once again, I will miss you!

Scott Helm...

(I dont think it's possible to forget you). Have a great life and have fun at UW!!!!! We will miss you greatly!!!!!!!

There are many more seniors but i'm just going to have to list them; I will miss you Samm #1, Jeze, Taylor, Tyler (who still owes me coffee),Drew Hale and let's not forget about Jack Bonner!!!! Good bye guys, things aren't going to be the same without you! I'm definately going to cry at the cross over assembly tomorrow (We switch sides on the bleachers so freshman will go to the sophmores spot and so on)!!!! I love you all and like I said a million times before, I WILL MISS YOU ALL TERRIBLY!!!!!

Love always,
