Btw, peeps, I'm friends only now, so if you want to see my ramblings, comment to be friended. If you were friended before, you still are, but if you're not just holler;)

Tennis is by far one of the most amusing games ever. Anyone interested in playing? We can keep switching up the four, or make it a larger excursion. So yesterday, Mel and I won 3 games while our opponents won 6, therefore beating us. I guess that Mel and I just generally do things with a 50% success rate... Also, anyone interested in a big ( Read more... )

I was babysitting yesterday and between movies began wondering about fairy tales. Everything always works out so well in them; are we setting ourselves up for disappointment as little kids? Or will things all work out? I sat there, able to relate my own life to problems that computer-animated Barbie overcame in her sophomore year, wondering why ( Read more... )

Summer is by far the best thing ever, but I assume that needs no introduction. I actually have a life! So far I have gone out basically every day with friends and it's been a blast. Whether it's watching movies, hanging with the girls, potentially violent game night, playing pool and making people uncomfortable, remixing it up, or going to the ( Read more... )

Okay, beware, cuz this will be a hugely long post. Now, where to even start? So, basically, high school has ended, and it went out in style. I'm scared to death about the future, but I could not have asked for a better end to senior year. I'll start with my personal favorite topic (and just about the only thing I've talked about since it ( Read more... )

Well, C-team has officially ended. The trip to Washington that I have been counting down to forever has come and gone. And it was worth every second of it. C-team truly was a ride; I felt every emotion possible in relation to it. And through the stress and the tears and the not being able to break down, I can honestly say it was all worth it.

Well, folks, I'm officially 18 years old. And something about being that old just makes me a bit depressed. Although, as far as the birthday goes, it was a good one. Probably the best yet. Seeing that it was my last day of being a true teenager, there had to be some wild and craziness involved, right? And by craziness I CLEARLY mean karaoke ( Read more... )

Yeah, so just to throw this out there: WE HAVE BEEN STATE CHAMPIONS FOR OVER A WEEK and it hasn't lost any of its appeal. I heart C-team so much. Believe it or not, I actually miss caselaw. And penological. In other news, Benihana is the coolest restaurant ever. Um... I know I had other stuff to post... hmm... Oh well. At least I'm posting,

So I'm back from my vacation. Maine is a gorgeous state, and it was cool to see Washington, DC, even if it was about 1000 degrees. I liked seeing all the monuments and stuff, but I guess I'm kinda a dork like that. When I got back, my back tire on m'truck was practically flat -- it should have 35 lbs of air in it, it had 11. Oops. As I'm ( Read more... )
