^thanks Mari thats neato

Well track season is officially over.  Regionals was a disaster on the whole and I ran my second slowest mile time all season.  Halsey had a bad race and isn't going to state, even though she still has the fastest 1500 and 1600 times in the state.  Julius was sitting in second but got beaten in the last 25 meters, which was ( Read more... )

Happy Easter.

I have just returned from Austin with 5 other teammates because we went to TEXAS RELAYS.  Basically it is a gigantinormountainous (you like that?) meet that you have to qualify for and all that jazz.  I only ran in the DMR, in which we got second.  The team that beat us was from Colorado and their leadoff girl was recently on the ( Read more... )

So I just got m new DDR mats in the mail and I'm super pumped. They are metal, like intense solid metal ones, and were very much needed because we've broken 3 so far from playing on them so much. Plus DDR is no fun when the mat keeps turning and scrunching up. Unfortunately one of the pieces was broken when we opened the box so we had to send ( Read more... )

First weekday update in a while...probably because there is finally a break in the workload (!!) SO school is hard, running is hard, what else is new.  WEATHER! Good lord Salome I don't know how you live up there because I can barely live in the cold for a week.  I'm ready for summer NOW.  But I get to go on a cruise on February 8th through the ( Read more... )

Oh dear I've never dreaded school so much in my life.  Its actually quite depressing.  I've gotten used to sleeping in until 9 and reading and sleeping more and drawing and laying around all day and it will be a hard transition back to being busy all the time ( Read more... )

All of my serious finals and the semester in general is over and my stress level is now in control.  An update is now in order.  Thats good though because I'm at the point of being so sick of school that I can hardly study and all I want to do is sleep.  And read this dumb book I can't put down that my sister lent me about vampires.  Its actually ( Read more... )

Ooooh dear.  We had the regional cross country meet today and it was way eventful.  Shelby and Julius are going to state for individuals but we got 5th overall so we aren't going as a team.  We all ran our very best though (I PRed by 32 seconds to run 12:17), and we actually had a girl go to the hospital in an ambulance.  She couldn't stand or see ( Read more... )

Well I had a lot of really sucky things happen, and now good things are happening.

Bad
-Grant & Anne broke up
-Uncle commited suicide
-did not qualify for Nike Nationals
-fell in the rain and cut my toe fairly bad (bled through bandaids, socks, and shoes when I ran next morning!!)

Good
-back together with Grant
-somehow pulled off straight A's (7 IB ( Read more... )

OK, this has really, really been bothering me.  I remembered a movie I used to watch in my childhood all the time but can't remember the name.  It was about this forest of animals and there was some sort of chemical/radiation spill from the humans and a little skunk girl was poisoned.  These four other kid animals (one was a dorky mole) made this ( Read more... )

Oh good god.  The legendary Steve Irwin died. He died! It's shattering my world and I don't believe it.  Steve Irwin can't die! He's the crocodile hunter! I'm thinking Jeff Corwin sent a mechanical sting ray to send enormous amounts of electricity through his body because he's jealous of how much better Steve Irwin is.  No ordinary sting ray could ( Read more... )
