the weekend

2009-03-30T11:28:00.000-07:00

so i had a pretty awesome weekend =]

the military ball was on saturday, so my aunt came over on friday and we went shoe shopping and stuff. we were gone all afternoon. my sister came with us. we went to this place called Dots first. we didn't find anything for the ball there, but we did find a pair of really cute boots for 5 dollars =] so my aunt got those for me. i really like them. then we went to the mall, which is where we spent the majority of our time. we went into like every shoe place in the mall. finally we decided on these silver sparkly sandals but we still weren't that thrilled with them. well after we got home, we all went to walmart, my mom and the kids and mike included. and that's where we found the perfect pair of shoes for the ball! lol. so my aunt took the other ones back the other day and i wore the ones from walmart. she also had to fix/adjust my dress a little bit, so she did that too.
then saturday night was the ball =] i had alot more fun this year than i did last year. i think the reason being i wasn't as shy this time because me and kevin have been together for a little over a year now instead of not even one month. so i was more myself this year. and we danced alot =] this girl, cheyenne (sp??), taught me how to do this one dance (i dont know what it's called ) that everyone else was doing. me and her also danced together lol. kevin said that her boyfriend was his so she said i was hers and stole me from him, haha. but yea, me and kevin danced alot. apparently i'm a good dancer lol. kevin says i am, i told him i was just moving lol. but yea, it was a lot of fun =]]] we sat with sabrina and tilson again this year. she looked really pretty in her dress. i also kept telling kevin "she looks pretty" "oh, i like her dress" and things like that lol. it was fun =]] here's a picture:

also on saturday, we had jonathan and mike's birthday party! we had it for lunch this time instead of dinner so i could go to the dance later. but that was fun too. they both got alot of the things that they were wanting so that's good =] mike is 35 and jonathan is 20 (wow!) we had two kinds of cake as well, one for each lol. tres leches and strawberry. and there were like 3 differnt ice creams. i had the Candy Jar one. it was really good! it had a bunch of differnt candy pieces in it =D
also, jon and rachel brought their goddaughter, Emily, on saturday because rachel was watching her. she's very alert. plus she holds her own bottle lol. she seems like a pretty happy baby. she was going to stay the night but she had to be somewhere the next day, so Caleb and Stephanie, her parents, picked her up later that night.
jonathan and rachel stayed here until today. they actually just left not too long ago. jonathan finished the little short film that we filmed with the kids the other day so we all got to see that on saturday as well. it's cute lol

and then on sunday, i was invited to go with kevin and his mom to see kevins birth mom and meet his siblings, and then go to jason and kelly's after. it was fun =] i really like his siblings, they're pretty cool! you can definitly tell that him and lacie are brother and sister, they're into alot of the same things. joey and leah are really cute too! leah actually gave me this blue shiny round thing. its really pretty. i put it on my BIG SISTER necklace/bracelet (me and brianna bought it the other day at walmart, mine is BIG SISTER and hers is LIL SISTER). we were there for quite a while. i talked alot with joey for the first part that we were there. he's into a lot of things, like guns and football and wrestling and card collecting and stuff. he hunts with his stepdad sometimes as well. he even shot his own deer! they have its head hanging in the living room. and then me and lacie got to talking and we're alot alike too. we talked about twilight alot and she was showing me a bunch of videos and songs on her ipod. i didn't talk to leah a wholel lot but she's cool too =] it was pretty cool to see kevin with his siblings =] he got along with all of them really well too lol. i think he mostly talked to lacie, but he hung out with leah and joey as well. and his mom showed him alot of pictures from when he was little and stuff. it was really cool =]

when we left there we went to jason and kelly's. i had never been there before, but it's really pretty! they have a nice house. i got to hold kamryn for the first time =]] she's soooo much bigger now! after jonathan got up from his nap, me kevin and him went outside and played for a while. jonathan was riding all his tractors and bikes and stuff at first and then he got three soccer balls out and we played with those for a bit. we were there for a couple hours probably.
after we left there we went and ate pizza at Red Brick. it was really good! lol

so yea, i've spent alot of time with kevin this weekend. i've also seen that he's really good with kids and that he's going to be a great father someday =] (nowhere in the near future though lol) i've had alot of fun with him. i enjoy being around him, being with him =]

so yea, now it's monday. it's jonathan's birthday today actually. we're jjust getting back to our regualr stuff, school and chores and whatnot.

on april 11th i'm going to get to meet kevin's dad! he's coming out and we (kevin, miss kathy, his dad, and i) are going to go to the Skillet concert at six flags. that should be fun =] i can't wait!

i love you baby boi

my new site

2009-03-24T16:07:00.000-07:00

so im pretty much addicted to SuperPoke! Pets lol. i've wasted sooooooo much time on it these past few days....but you should see what i've done with draco's space! he has soooo many plushies =]]] and i'm still looking for more for him! i almost have enough to get the habitat i want for him =] then i'll try to save up for Lily's habitat and get her some stuff, and then i'll do the same with elmo.

i like all the different kinds of plushies, especially the dragon ones =]] theyre adorable haha...so addicted..

draco, Lily, elmo

2009-03-23T11:59:00.000-07:00

so there's this app on myspace called SuperPoke! Pets that i've been really getting into. basically, you have this pet and you can clean it, feed it, tickle it, play with it, and you can also play with other people's pets. you get coins for all of this stuff and you can use the coins to buy stuff for your pet. it's cool lol. i actually in a way have three pets. i have draco the Dragon on my account, Lily the Frog on mine and kevin's account, and then i've been playing with elmo the Rabbit on kevin's account =]] so lots of coins lol. come play with me!

spring break part 2!

2009-03-22T08:06:00.000-07:00

ok, so like i said, yesterda was amazing! =]]

kevin and his mom picked me up and we went to six flags. they got season passes and bought me a ticket, but they said i should look into a season pass as well so i can go with them more throughout the year. already they've invited me to go see Skillet with them on April 11th, and i think kevin's dad is coming in that weekend so if i go, i'll be able to meet him =]
so yea, miss kathy doesn't really like the rides much so me and kevin went on our own alot of the day. lines for the big rides (like titan and giant and stuff) were looooooooooooong. like hours of waiting long lol. we originally were going to ride the titan but after prlly half an hour his mom texted us and said she was at the shockwave and if we were coming and we asked how long the line for that was and she said not too long, so we went there instead. and it was very short for it being so crowded at the park! lol. so we rode that and he was funny on it lol. he kept screamin things like every two seconds and i couldn't stop laughing, lol, it was funny. so then we went on go karts. those were fun too! we went on them three times throughout the day. twice back to back and once later. so i won the first two races =] on the first race he got stuck behind someone who had spun out like right at the beggining of the race lol. so i passed him and he never passed me back. i actually lapped him that race lol. and tthe second race i also passed him and although he had to stop racing before i did, he never passed me so i still won. but on the third race....he owned the third race lol. he actually spun me out lol. yea, and then i never passed him again lol. he was so very happy that he spun me out tho lol. yea, go karts are fun =]]]
mainly, we rode go karts and shockwave, but we also rode the mine train once and the roaring rapids. i had actually never ridden that one before cuz it had always been closed. so yea, we rode that, reluctantly lol. i didn't wanna get wet. but i didn't really get too wet, he got alot more wet than i did lol. so then he kept huggin on me afterwards to get me more wet lol.
he also had never been to the top of the orange tower, so i took him up there =] we asked if his mom wanted to go, but she's afriad of heights so she didnt. it was really windy up there and we could actually feel it moving a little bit. later that day there was a sign that said it was closed because of high winds lol.
there was this marines thing going on in the park where the guys have to do so many chin ups and the girls have to hang in a chin up position for so long, and depending on how long you stay or how many you do, you get something. miss kathy said we should try it so kevin did, and he did 10 chinups and he won a lanyard (sp?) thats red and yellow and says The Few. The Proud. The Marines. on it. i thought about trying it, but i didn't lol.
and earlier in the day kevin smelled funnel cakes, which he loves lol, and so he had been wanting them all day. so before we left we got some funnel cakes. they are actualyl really really good! and really really messy lol. me and kevin kept blowing and sprinkling the powder on each other lol. we sent kevin to get them cuz his mom was tired and she didn't wanna be alone, so i stayed with her until kevin was real close to the front and then i went and helped him carry things back. but his mom is funny lol. she likes to people watch =] people watching is fun! and everyone kept trying to sit at our table with us or take our chairs and she kept gettin mad after they left lol. and she'd watch them and when they left she'd be like, "oh good, they're leaving" lol. we also agreed that we should give wedgies to everyone who sags their pants =D
haha, yea it was fun. we left after we had funnel cakes and it was like after 7 by this time. and we went to walmart, which was also very entertaining lol. we seperated from his mom again cuz she wanted him to go get some food for the week since she was gonna be gone for work, so we took our own cart, and at first i pushed him and then he got out and he pushed me =]] it was alot of fun lol. everyone, even little kids, kept looking at us funny cuz i was in the cart lol. haha...

yea, so i had alot of fun with them this past weekend =]]

when i came home, we all watched Twilight =] jonathan and rachel had come over too. so we watched that. mike had never seen it before. and he said something that i never thought i'd hear from him ,lol. he said "The book is so much better!" i was like wow..lol. but yea, he said because there is so much more detail in the boook and everything and all of bella's thoughts that you just can't compare the two. i think he liked it, but he liked the book better.

so here we are, sunday morning. lol. that was my spring break. how was yours?

to be continued

2009-03-21T21:15:00.000-07:00

so i had an amazing day today! me and kevin and his mom went to six flags today =]] we were there pretty much all day and then when i came home, me and my family watched twilight =] i'm really tired though, so i'll give a more detailed day tomorrow.

goodnight everyone =]

spring break

2009-03-20T20:32:00.001-07:00

so i had alot of fun today =]]] kevin and his mom picked me up around 11 45 or so and we went to the Grapevine Mills Mall. we hung out there til about 6 or so. it was cool! we had lunch at the Rainforest Cafe. there's all these animals hanging everywhere right and some of them move and stuff. well, miss kathy is like deathly afraid of snakes, so kevin, of course, has to keep teasing her about the big fake snake that hangs from the ceiling and moves, lol. so in turn she kept pinching him lol. but yea, we had lunch there and we just walked around the mall really. went in to a lot of the shops and looked at stuff. me and kevin got some popcorn that was really good! he also got me this cute white TY puppy that's named Sweet Pea =] it's cute! and he's always paying for me and my stuff so i wanted to get him something too. so we were in Hollister and he was looking at the necklaces and picked one that he was gonna get, so i got that for him =] miss kathy got alot of clothes for Kamryn and Jonathan. they had alot of sales in this one store so she got them some stuff. and we also (well...i'm not really included in we, cuz i didn't pay for it or anything lol) got kevin a tux for the military ball =]]] he had to try it on and he looks really handsome in it!! but yea, they ended up getting that for the ball

so after that, we went to the movies and saw Knowing. if you havn't seen the movie and would like to, don't read any further, spoilers will be involved!

so basically, the story is that this girl Lucida had the gift of prophecy and wrote down all these dates and locations that people were going to die and how many were going to die, and they all came true. but she put it in a time capsule for school and it was found 50 years later. so this guy is trying to figure it out and tryign to figure out how to help save people and so there are some pretty graphic scenes of death incidents. for example, a plane crash, where it shows everyone running around burning, and a subway crash, that shows the bus hitting several people, and spurting blood from some person even. it has some really cool special effects in it! but these creepy guys keep coming to the two main kids in the movie and telling them things that no one else can hear and basically, the world is going to end in fire and the children will be saved to create a new world to live in. it then shows a classic Adam and Eve setting at the end of the movie. i really liked it because it has some real meaning behind it. you know, the world is gonna end some day and it's gonna be a sad and chaotic thing. and idk...i had so many thoughts and emotions during the movie that i don't really remember now, but , yea, it was good.

we're going to go to six flags tomorrow and maybe ripley's believe it or not as well. it should be fun. but i'm tired, and getting up early, so goodnight

quickie

2009-03-18T18:13:00.000-07:00

haha, so today was the first day that i've been home when cody is here. he's funny, lol. the boys love to play with him although him and christian get along a little better than him and brandon do. but he's cute. i was cleaning the gerbil cage today and he loved the little guys! he helped me with their food and treats and i let him pet them. he seems to be a little hyper-active but for the most part hes a good kid

poor brianna is having some trouble with division. she's been at it for hours, and she finally understands it to some extent. she's gonna love it when she gets to harder things! not. lol. but if she applies herself, she can do really well

and i have something im excited for now! =] kevin and his mom asked me to go to six flags with them on friday and the grapevine mall i think on saturday. should be fun =]

as for now, i really have chores to do, so yea...later i guess

plans

2009-03-16T16:34:00.001-07:00

well i have plans for tomorrow! even if it's not with my most favorite people lol. but it'll be good to get out of the house and i hink it'll make them both happy. belinda is working half a day tomorrow, so me her and mayme are going to lunch and then to walmart.

nothin much

2009-03-16T15:59:00.000-07:00

so i just got done helpin my dad replace the lowbeam lightsbulbs on his car. you'd think it'd be easy because it's right there and everything, but it's actually harder than it looks. but we got it done in a good amount of time =] i got one in and he got the other

also, my mom started a blog. well, she's had it for a while, but she actually posted today lol. her's are prolly more detailed than mine. this speciic post was about our weekend. it was cool to read it from her point of view =]

well, that's really it. think ima go work on my cross-stitch some more

later

crane game

2009-03-15T11:25:00.000-07:00

lol, wow...some people just dont watch their kids like they should. i just saw a video (link at the end of this post) where a little girl climbed up into one of those crane game machines and her sister (i think it was her sister) immediatley went to tell her parents. of course, her parent's didn't believe her but she kept telling them so the mom went and looked and sure enough, the little girl was in there! lol. it's finny but at the same time it's not, you know what i mean? but yea, they got her out safely and then left. i bet she was in a lot of trouble when she got home

heres the link:

memories

2009-03-15T02:39:00.000-07:00

its almost 5 in the morning. i've been reliving my childhood all night =] my mom is trying to set up her new printer and mike is...well im not exactly sure what he's doing lol, organizing maybe? idk, but anyway, im just chillin in their room and i keep saying "remember when..." good times good times =] i wrote this little prose the other dya at my grandma's when i was thinking bout the past:

childhood = carefree play and endless days

yup yup...=] this all started with my buying the book "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" which led me toshow mike all the books i really loved from my my childhood that i had kept and the ones that i had bought and yea, soon i was saying "remember when..."

fun times =]

i love my life!

there are times when i think i really have it rough, but all in all, i've had one of the best lives a person could live. i have to thank my family for that one =] they're the ones who gave it to me. well and God

Movie List

2009-03-12T21:08:00.000-07:00

so basically this is just like my book list, except with movies. i've seen like a lot of movies, so it probably won't be very complete, and i'll have to add to it whenever think of another movie i've seen, so yea. but i'll ad them as i remember or as i see them =]] p.s. just cuz i've seen them doesn't mean i like them!

that's all lol. bye

i'm still alive

2009-03-12T20:21:00.000-07:00

so, i havn't posted in a long long time, but i wanted to let yall know i havn't fallen off the face of the earth. i just havn't felt like writing. there's been plenty to write about. i just havn't felt like it.

so since i've last written there have been some main highlights...like my sister turning 10! yay, double digits =] and mine and kevin's one year!! yay =]] lol

other than that, there really hasn't been anything major. just chillin and stuff. my aunt and granmda have come over for the past two weekends so we had fun with them. they won't be here this weekend though =/ oh well. maybe i'll work more on my cross-stitching then. i started oding it again last night. i really need to get a picture frame so i can give this other one i made to mayme....

but anyway. mike finished the first twilight book the other night and i finally finished all 4!! go team edward! but yea, with a little convincing from me and my mom he started reading the second one. hopefully we'll get him to read all 4. idk, we'll see

kevin joined a band! he's song writer/backup vocals. originally, their name was Seeking Justise (such a cool name!!) but some of the guys were too busy for it so they joined with this one band, E.V.O.L. i liked seeking justice alot better...so did he lol. oh well. they're supposed to be having their first photoshoot on sunday.

everyone's getting sick nowadays. not good =/

my dad started texting LOL. i find that extremely hilarious, just cuz i never thought that day would come. but yea, he texted me one day out of the blue and said he had texting so we text now.

that's really all for now i guess. who know's when i'll update again lol. later

movie night

2009-02-09T15:25:00.001-08:00

me and my dad went to see the uninvited today! really creppy movie =] had a really good story line too. we both agreed that we wouldn't want to watch it before going to sleep. haha.

we also went and got the saw movies for our get together on thursday. they had the saw trilogy for 13 bucks! good deal! my dad bought it for me =] and then i bought the princess bride for 9 bucks, cuz it's a good movie too. i also got half of briana's gift. the book that she wanted, so that's good. i'll go looking for the other part, the G-pack tomorrow.

now we're home, just chillin. i think ima go read some more. maybe get some food, idk yet lol. anyways, later

gatordate

2009-02-08T18:04:00.000-08:00

wow! it's been a busy day today. lets start with yesterday though lol.

ok, so kevin came over around 4 yesterday, and we talked alot and then after that he asked if i wanted to go to the movies with him and his mom, so the three of us went to see Push. i thought it was a really good movie! pretty cool, a little long though. and then we went to walmart and me and him hung out there for a while while his mom was getting some things. we looked at a car magazine and he said i could get him a mustang for his birthday, lol. hey, he can hope right? anyway, so that was fun.

and then today we went to sunday school. and about an hour or so after we got home, i took brandon to see Hotel For Dogs. i thought it was really good! really sweet =] it made bran cy =( poor guy lol. but it brought tears to my eyes too so i dont blame him. i think he enjoyed going =] so that's cool.

and after the movies, i had a little less than an hour before i had to be at xcelerate. and it was ok. it's pretty much the same as it always has been. i was VERY quiet. only spoke when talken to pretty much. so i'm kinda lonely when i go there. i think it has to do with the fact that 1. everyone there is soooo outgoing and im not really, and 2. they already have their own friends ad cliches and everything. but i like listening to the stories and stuff, that's pretty cool.

so after xcelerate, i had about an hour til my dad was supposed to be here. we ran to Braums real quick to pick some stuff up and then when we got home i had to pack and eat. and my mom trimmed my bangs for me, so now they aren't all in my face, yay! lol .which is kinda strange cuz i usually fight her that i dont wanna cut em, but i was very willing lol.

and so my dad came and picked me up and we talked alot on the way to his house. he's off of work all week so either tomorrow or tuesday we're going to go see The Uninvited together. that should be fun =] he said him and belinda (yes, i'm surprised too) went to see Taken and he said it was pretty good. he said me and kevin should go see it together and that his mom might even like it as well, so we'll see. also, me my dad and brother are gonna get together on thursday and we're gonna watch all 5 Saw movies in a marathon =]]] that should be fun. he said we'll order pizza or something and just hang out. i'm excited for that. it's been a long time since just the 3 of us hung out together.

i'm also gonna see if i can find brianna's birthday presents this "weekend". i'm gonna get her a G-Pack for his DS (i'm looking for a pink one with skulls) and The Wimpy Kid Diary. she wants both of those so yea =] lol .we'll see if i can find them.

anyways, i think that's about it. so i'm tired. ima go read before bed. night foo!

attack of the cabbage patch

2009-02-05T16:18:00.000-08:00

haha, so me and my mom are in her room reading right? well she wanted something fruity to eat so she brought us some candy, some of which were Sour Patch Kids. now, she's not much for sour things in the first place but she wanted to eat them anyways. So she puts them in her mouth and starts making all these crazy faces, which was pretty funny in itself, but when i asked her what she was doing that for, she cries out "It's the CABBAGE patch kids!!" LOLOLOL i thought that was the funniest thing =] thought i'd share =]]]

also, i was tellin her about a part that happened in the 3rd twlight book, Eclipse. it was about an eagle and a fish. and i read it to her, and i thought it was pretty funny, but since she hadn't gotten to the second book yet she didn't understand. so i told she would get to it in the second book. and suddenly she has this look of heartbreak and disappointment and she says "the book's about an eagle and a fish??" lol, yea, that was pretty funny too....

my mommy's so cwazy. but i still love her =]]]

p.s. snacks

2009-02-05T09:56:00.000-08:00

p.s. the title of my last post reminded me that i gave my gerbils trix and cheerios yesterday after i cleaned their cage =]] thought i'd tell yall that. they seemed to enjoy them too lol

litter boxes and gerbil cages

2009-02-05T09:46:00.000-08:00

well, there's not really alot going on here right now. nothin new to talk about.

we went to church last night. that was cool, cuz it's been a while since we went on wednesday. me and kevin asked miss julie to help us find a bible study that me and him could do together and talk about and stuff. she said to give her a few days and she would come up with something. i think it will be cool. i know that i, for one, want to be closer to God and kevin says that he does too, so i think that this is a good idea. plus, we can keep each other accountable. so we'll see how it goes.

also, they have the forms out for Diamond J. i forgot to pick one up though. besides, that's a ackup plan for right now lol. hopefully, if both our mom's are ok with it, i can go with kevin and his mom to tennesse for spring break and i can meet his family. i think that would be really cool! but if not, then i wanna go to Diamond J. so yea.

i've also been going through my computer and deleting alot of stuff that i don't need or want anymore. i already went through all my pictures. now i'm going through reading material. not my own stuff though, things i've gotten from fictionpress that i really likeda nd decided to keep. stuff like that. i've gotten rid of quite a few of those as well. i've done A-K so far. L-Z to go.

i'm reading eclipse! i already read the first two books in the series (if i didn't already say that in the previous post) so now i'm starting on the third. i just started this morning though so i'm not that far into it yet.

well i guess that's it really. that's actually more than i thought it was going to be anyways, so yea. i should go finish my chores now.

oh, and just because i havn't been posting doesn't mean i havn't been updating. i've been putting up questions so go check them out and leave comments. that would make me happy =] lol
here's the link (also found on the side of the page): http://myjournal-amber.blogspot.com/2008/11/question-of-day.html

oh! that reminds me, Travis Clark, lead singer of We the Kings, has his own blog now =] so if you're interested in it like i am, there's a link on the side of the page. it's cool, you should check it out!

ok, that's really it this time, later

chicken pox free

2009-02-01T20:11:00.001-08:00

yay! we're finally off house arrest!!!! we actually got off friday lol. my grandma, aunt, brother and brother's girlfriend came over and hung out on friday night. we played games and stuff, the norm. it was also in celebration of my aunt's birthday =D so yea, it was fun. and then yesterday we went to best buy and my grandma got herself a nintendo DS, which i find that pretty funny lol. but she seems to enjoy it. we were pretty much out alll day saurday and then we came home and played games that night again. i won trivial pursuit, with my grandma's help =] first time i think...apart from disney trivia.

and we got to go to churh today! yay! not that anybody was real worried about us or anything cuz nobody called or sent a postcard or anything wondering where we were. but brianna's teacher seemed real excited to see her. not so much in my class. there were a few ppl who asked where i had been, but that's it.

it's also mine and kevin's 11 month anniversary today =]]]]]] i went over to his house a little before 2 and hung out with him until 6 =] it was cool since it'd been forever since i saw him! i saw him for like 20 minutes on friday, and ran into him a gamestop on saturday, but that was it. so it was good to hang out with him again =] we played his new game Unreal Tournament (3) and watched Death Race. good movie! not for the queasy type tho lol.

so now i'm at my dad's. we watched Shooter when we got here cuz we were gonna eat before we did anything. so we got some food and watched that and then we played some Rockstar. it was fun =] we tried it on hard...i no like hard...it hurts my pinky lol.

but yea, it's been a pretty good weekend =] even though i left out A TON of details that i meant to put in but forgot about lol.

workin hard

2009-01-21T19:47:00.001-08:00

ok, so it's almost the end of the day, and i'm like super tired and my feet hurt lol. i really don't see how my mom does everything EACH day...tidy the house, keep the kids in order, school, cooking...it's alot. plus having the baby during the day.

i didn't do school but i did watch the baby and do my chores and i cooked dinner =] lol. the baby was pretty good. he got to hang out in my room today and play on my bed. his mom wanted me to put him on his stomach a couple times today. he didn't seem to like it much lol. finally, instead of trying to hold himself up, he just layed his head down and i was stroking his head. he looked peaceful lol. we didn't have any problems. he slept most of the afternoon. oh, and i got to feed him his applesauce! lol. he seems to like it ok. his dad picked him up around 3:30

and i made spaghetti for dinner. and we had some sauce in the freezer and my mom said to add another can too it, so that's what i did. it was ok. the green beans not so much lol. it's supposed to cook in the bag in the mocrowave for 6 minutes, but my mom thinks they weren't cooked long enough. oh well...lol

i've almost got all the laundry done! if i keep on it tommorrow it should all be done by tommorrow night =]

my mom seems to be feelin a little better. she stayed on the couch most of the day and had a few naps. she looks like she feels better right now, but we'll see tomorrow.

i really think i'm forgetting something that i wanted to talk about but i can't member it. so oh well. i guess it wasn't that important lol. gnight yall

switching roles

2009-01-21T05:54:00.000-08:00

my mom's not feelin good. she really hasn't been feeling good for the past few days. she thinks she has the flu =( so i'm gonna watch the baby today! i'm gonna play "Mommy". well, for some things at least. mainly for watching the baby and takin care of my mom. but she's still gonna do school with the kids and keep them in order the best she can without gettin up. depending on what we have for dinner, i'll prolly cook too. so we shall see.

that's about it for right now so ill talk to yall later!

2009-01-20T18:39:00.000-08:00

so, we officially have a new president, President Barack H. Obama! =] we watched the inauguration this morning and CNN has been on all day. i think it's pretty cool that we have the FIRST African/American president in office. i was telling kevin earlier that i think him being president will come with alot of changes (well..it wasn't in those words lol, but you get what i mean). i think we need change. in a lot of things. so we shall see =]

also, i have been writing a little bit during the past few days and i think i've written a couple of my best things. i really like them. one was inspired by a picture of a newborn baby being held, and the other was with the prompt "how did we end up this way?" they are both on fictionpress and have been getting alot of positive reviews =] so that makes me happy

kevin didn't go to school today so he went with his mom to work instead and while he was there he drew this really pretty picture of our names inside of a heart =] i got to keep it. he dropped it off out side my house since we still can't actually see each other. i'll attach a picture of it at the end of this =]

poor miss kathy =( she's got a kidney infection. i hope she feels better soon! i was told that it only took a few days to go away, with shots of course.

i've started reading Twilight again! i got all 4 books for christmas and i still haven't read the last one. i was going to just read the last one by itself but i figured i would read all 4 instead =] so i'm on chapter 3 of book 1 lol.

anyway, that's it for now, so here's the pic kevin drew =]

emotional

2009-01-19T16:14:00.000-08:00

wow, there's been so much drama in the past few days it's not even funny. i am soooooo tired of crying. i really don't feel like going into details, but i'm pretty sure that the drama is done with. for now at least.

poor sammy. he's been scratching so much that my mom and mike gave him an oil bath. like oil from a car. supposedly the oil is going to help stop the itching and he won't be scratching himself raw anymore. so yea. the oil isn't coming off real well though =/

anyways...

baby, despite everything that has been going on the past few days, we are still together. and if we continue to talk and communicate and be there for each other, i know that we can overcome anything, i love you baby, with all of my heart. forever and always, whatever it takes.

he's staying!

2009-01-15T19:48:00.000-08:00

yay!!!!! i just found out that kevin's mom made a final decision on where she wants to live! she wants to be here!!!!! she actually found a house she likes and wants that's like 15 minutes or so away from the church, but if she doesn't get that one she wants to keep looking around here =] that made me really happy hearing that! i hope the decision stays final =]

i love you sooooo much baby! i couldn't stand it if you moved away from me

productions have increased

2009-01-14T16:52:00.001-08:00

haha, i just published a comment that said thep erson had found my blog by searching for "Nertz" online =D anyways, they were telling me about the National Nertz Association and the site for it and eveything. i might check it out later

but for now, i'll tell you about my day =] i'm actually kinda proud of myself cuz i got a lot done today. i got all the laundry finished, i washed my bed sheets and blankets, i did my school, i did my chores. basically, i did everything i was supposed to do today =] it feels good to be productive.

my sister was having a hard time thinking of something to write for her journal in school today, so i came up with the topic, "New Socks". and she's like, i can't write half a page about that. so i challenged her. i told her if she wrote about it, i would write about it too in my journal. she agreeed and she actually wrote more than half a page on it =] it was a cute story. funny thing is we both used Christmas in our stories without knowing what the other was writing, haha. i'll prolly post mine on fictionpress later, so if you wanna read it, check it out.

the details

2009-01-13T16:11:00.000-08:00

ok, so now that we have some summaries, we should have some more detailed things, right? right =] so let's see...what can we go into detail about....

the tuesday that we got back from Mexico, my brother and rachel came over to do laundry. and to be honest, i didn't really feel like having them over at the time, but by the end of the night, i didn't want them to go lol. we were just having fun and playing games and stuff. jonathan won most of the games we played, but i won like 4 and rachel won 2.
first, we played Dragonology, a game that i got for christmas. it was pretty cool! basically, you had to master 3 dragons before anyone else and then get to the dragon's eye. i think me and rachel both mastered 2 dragons, but jon mastered 3 and got to the dragon's eye. but it was fun =]
we then played two games of Disney Trivia. we actually played this because of my sister. she wanted to play Dragonology with us but we told her no. so jon suggested we play Disney Trivia so she could play with us. we played the first game without her because she had to eat and do dishes and stuff, but she and the boys played the second game with us. of course, jonathan won both games. lol
after that, me jon and rachel played a game of nertz and a game of cadillac, both of which jonathan won. again lol.
but then it was my turn to win =] we played two games of ERS and i won both of those. we also played two games of Scrabble, and i won both of those. however, rachel didn't play the second game of scrabble with us, she did laundry instead.
and after that we played two games of Scattergories. rachel won both of those. and i think that was one of the most fun games of the night. we were up til like 5 playing all these so by the time the end of Scattergories came, we were getting crazy with our answers. it was alot of fun =]
my brother and i don't spend a whole lot of time together, but the times that we do, we have alot of fun.

also, i now have 15 DS games! the newest three are Brain Age 2, WarioWare Touched!, and Imagine Teacher. i got Brain Age while i was in Mexico (well not really...we were right next to the border though) and for a few days, i played it every day. i kinda slacked though lol.
WarioWare Touched! i had to order online because nobody had it. and even then i got it used. but i think it was worth it =] it's alot of fun. it's kinda crazy though. if you've ever played it on the Wii, it's the exact same thing, just DS version.
and then Imagine Teacher i just went out on a limb and bought it cuz it looked interesting. and it's actually pretty fun. it's kinda more for kids than my age, but i still like it lol. basically, there's a new school and it only has 4 students. so the principal is teaching me how to be a teacher and he leaves the school because he isn't needed. the game tells me what classes i need to give the students but i get to decide what days they learn them on. and every night, i clean the classroom up. at the end of the first week i got a new student. and at the end of the second week, i got another new student. eventually, i'll have a full class. i also have to teach the kids their work and correct their work. it's pretty cool =]

The Secret Life of the American Teenager started back last monday, and American Idol starts back tonight. so i have alot of thigns to watch on t.v. for now. i'm still watching Supernanny as well. i like that show =]

me and kevin made a myspace together =] it's pretty cool. we put some of the pics we had taken together on there and then just some other ones that we had together. and there's a timer on there that says how long we've been together. it's been like 318 days i think =] almost a year! i can't wait. we've got 6 friends on there lol. kevin's best friend and his cousin, my mom and thomas, and then of course me and him. it's neat =]
we've been talking alot online the past few days. reason being i made him a yahoo account because his other one was acting kinda stupid. he wasn't receiving all of his emails. but now he is =] lol. so yea, he has yahoo messenger now and we've been talking over that. also, we've been using the webcams, as i said in my previous post. it's neat =] especially since we won't be able to really see each other for at least 2 more weeks.

and that's really about it for now. if i think of anything else, i'll let yall know. hope you guys are having a happy new year =]]

summaries

2009-01-13T12:08:00.000-08:00

wow, so i havent posted anything for almost a month. but i'm back! i have not forgotten yall! psh, lol, like a whole lot of people read this anyways, but yea.

so alot has happened in one month. christmas, new years, our trip to Mexcio, mine and kevin's 10 month anniversary! alot lol. i don't really feel like going into alot of details but i will summarize a few of these events. let's start with christmas

Christmas: christmas was alot of fun, i got alot of cool things =] my aunt got me these nail polishes that have pens on the tip, so you can make designs and stuff on your nails. it's pretty cool! first i made smiley faces and dots, and then my current desgn is zebra pattern =] haha, they're cool. and my baby really liked his blanket i made for him =]]] so that's good. i spent christmas with my family =] and rachel. having rachel there was kinda weird. she's not like an immediate member of the family yet so it was different. for me at least. not saying its a bad thing, its just different.

New Years: for new years, my family went to mexico to be with my stepdads family. we did our normal mexico things, like get Fresas and corn (i'm not much for those...i get nachos), and go shopping and hang out at his grandma's house. we spent all but one night at angie and carlos' house. tristan (their 6 month old) was my buddy when we were there =] i love babies! while we were there, kevin and i had our 10 month anniversary!! well, we didn't like do anything cuz i was in mexico and he wasnt lol, but yea, you get my point. and we couldn't really talk to each other alot because of the roaming charges. it was sad lol. but we lived.

it was alot warmer in mexico than it was here, so when we came back, we all got sick =/ we're actually still trying to get over being sick. not only that, but carson, the baby we babysit, got chicken pox. the incubation period is 21 days. because our moms dont want us to spread it, me and kevin can't see each other for another 2 weeks! it's very sad =( but he has a webcam and i'm using my mom's so we can still "see" each other. but i still miss him alot. when we get off house arrest, we're going to get my ring sized for our 1 year anniversary. he got me a promise ring =) but he wants to make sure its the right size and everything, so i get to see it before i actually get it lol. but he's giving it to me on our 1 year =]]] i think it's really sweet. also, he wants to talk to my parents about it before he actually gives it to me, which i think that's really sweet too =]]

anyways, i'm gonna eat lunch right now, but everything is summarized up to date, so i'll right more detailed things later. maybe. lol.

snow angels are made

2008-12-19T21:59:00.000-08:00

i keep bugging kevin about giving me my christmas present, so he finally gave in and i got it today =]]] it's the prettiest necklace/earrings ever!! it's a heart and it has [real] blue topaz in the middle. half the heart is gold, the other half silver, and it's on a silver chain. the earrings are the same except without the chain lol. it's really pretty =]]] and i really love them!! thankyou baby =] so now i still gotta give him his lol.

but we went to our christmas party tonight. it was fun. we had this 4 part contest thing and a white elephant exchange. and they had snakcs and drinks too. and sabrina and tilson were there!! they hardly ever come anymore, so it was cool to see them there. we're thinking that we all need to double date sometime, that would be fun =]

so now im home, and i'm tired, and i'm prolly going to bed soon. so yea lol. i kinda doubt i'll be back before christmas, so if im not then MERRY CHRISTMAS! =]

i'm done =]

2008-12-17T22:32:00.000-08:00

except for a frame i have to get, i'm done with christmas shopping!! yay =]] i finished tonight, and wrapped everything except my dad's. his is the one i have to get the frame for. he's getting a pic of me and then another pic of me and kevin. well, him and belinda together. so yea, i gotta get the frame for the pic.

me and kevin are picking the pics up tomorrow!! =]] and we're going back to his house to sort them out and see who gets what and stuff. it should be fun!

yup yup =] i'm tired, i'm going to bed. night yall

ho-ho-ho

2008-12-15T20:21:00.000-08:00

hey peeps, im back =] again, just havent felt like getting on. but i got alot to talk about now lol.

first of all, my baby's birthday was this past thursday =]] he's officially 16! kewl kewl =] i gave him my present (a picture i had taken at jc penny) and he really liked it. he said it was hot lol. hes got it up in his room =]

and we got to hang out for a while because him and his mom picked me up so that me and him could get pictures taken together. i think they're really good =] we're gonna go pick them up on thursday and take them back to his house to sort them out and stuff. it should be fun!

oh, and when we left the studio, i got a job offer =]]] so when we go back to pick up the pics, i'm gonna ask for an application. cuz i really need a job lol.

so anyways, after we left we went to dinner at Johnny Carinos, which that was fun too. and because we wanted to spend some more time together before i went home that night, kevin convinced his mom to go to walmart for a few minutes. so we hung out there for about 15 minutes or so and then i had to go home.

but then i got to see him again on friday night because me, him, his mom, his uncle and his cousin went to dinner! we went to Saltgrass Steakhouse, which was really good! he had chicken fingers (of course...hes a chickenholic lol) and i had hickory chicken. and his mom was surprised cuz i ate almost all of mine, and when i first started going to dinner with them i didn't really eat a whole lot, but i've gotten used to eating with them now, lol. and i dont think his cousin likes me too much cuz he was all shy and stuff.

but yea, anyways, after we finished, miss kathy asked if i had to be home by a certain time and i said no, so went and looked at some of the houses that they had been looking at in Saganaw. and kevin got all sad when we were there and told me he didn't want to move, and i told him i didn't want him to move either =( and his mom was saying she always got lost in the nieghborhood we were in so i said maybe it was a sign that they shouldn't move there lol. so we hung out in saganaw for a little bit and then came back, and we drove around for a bit and looked at the Christmas lights =]]] and we stopped at Sonic and got some drinks and looked at more houses.

afterwards, i asked my mom if i could go back to his house to play sorry and she said that was fine, so i got to hang out at his house until like 12 30 in the morning lol. it was really cool because i've never really been at his house before. like i've been there but just for a few minutes. this was like a few hours, so it was cool! we played sorry and kicked his butt in it =] and he asked if i wanted to play gears of war 2 with him and i said sure. so while he was looking for batteries for his controller i got to check out his room . i like his room =] its cozy-like =] but we played in the living room. and he taught me how to play and it's like call of duty and 007 put together. it's neat, but the camera movement was a little weird at first. i had to get used to that. he beat me the first round and i won thesecond =] he said i did really well for my first time. and after that we played his racing game. after a few mintues of playing that his friend sam got on and we played with him. me and him were trying to run each other over, haha. and racing down the freeway =] and kevin asked if i wanted to make my own car, so i made my own motorcycle =] the license plate says "♥AA+KJ♥" its cool looking =] i raced it a for a little bit but then i had to go home.

but i got to see him again on saturday! lol. we went to see The Day the Earth Stood Still. it was interesting...kinda strange. it was ok.

but i like hanging out with my baby =]] i love him so much!!

and then on saturday night i had my other gig. it was small, only 4 peopel dealt at that party. we had some trouble finding it though. well, we found the business, just we couldn't find the right building. we had to go through a couple gates (which we had to be escorted through) before we got to the right place. it was a really long night though! i dont know why, but it felt like it went on forever! but i had a good crowd at my table so that was good. me and my dad got taco bell on the way home =]

and we played rockband on sunday morning before i went home. and when i did go home, i took christian to see Madagascar 2. it was cute =] i liked it better than the first one actually. and after we got home from the movies, i helped my mom and aunt wrap stocking stuffers. and my sister now knows the truth about santa. shes been questioning it for a long time, so we finally told her yesterday when we were wrapping. theres like a ton of presents under the tree too!! can't wait to open them =]]]

and thats about it i think...finally lol. so i've had a good past 5 days or so. how bout you?

jigsaw

2008-12-08T19:26:00.000-08:00

so i'm done with my puzzle! it usually takes me a whole lot longer to finish it, but i had alot of time to work on it lol. so now i jjust gotta glue it and i can hang it up =] here's some pics of my little project:

my little guys

2008-12-08T08:27:00.000-08:00

these are my two gerbils, Noah (the brown one) and Moses (the black one). i've had them for a couple years now. they're really soft and LOVE to chew on everything. their favorite things to chew are cardboard and plastic. they're not much for wood. the voice in the bakground is my mom haha.

puzzles and alarm clocks

2008-12-08T08:21:00.000-08:00

i used to think the most annoying noise in the world was an alarm clock. now i know better. the most annoying noise in the world is an alarm clock that you can't turn off. trust me, i know this by experience. this morning around 5 something, an alarm was going off in my dad's room. and it kept going and going and going.....and i couldn't sleep and i just wanted to make it go away! seriously, i hate that sound....if you ever want to torture me, just put me in a room where there's an unending alarm clock.....but anyways, i finally got up about 6 and both my dad and belinda were on the computer (which is why they didn't turn the alarm off sooner, they didn't know it was on), and i told them there was an alarm going off in their room. my dad said he was sorry and said he didn't mean to wake me, that it was prolly belinda's alarm clock (lol >.<), which then belinda said sorry. but anyways, the moral of this story is:

the most annoying noise in the world is an alarm clock that you can't turn off!

i started a puzzle last night. it's 500 pieces, a Thomas Kinkade puzle. it's a really pretty house. it's actually the 3rd of 3 puzzles in the box. the other 2 are already done and hanging on my wall. i actualy got alot done just working on it last night.

makin some money

2008-12-07T09:12:00.000-08:00

so i did my first gig of the year last night! Ben E. Keith....always a nightmare lol. but it went well. it was a really slow night, but once i got people at my table it went pretty quick. i was actually surprised when my dad said to call last hand. yes, my dad. lol. he went with me last night even though he didn't have to. he was like my bodygaurd the whole night lol. he even looked like it cause he was dressed in like all black and stood in between mine and Brian's table almost all night, haha =]

oh and it was crazy! there was this one guy who had like all the aces in the shoe. he had like 15 cards, no joke, and almost all of them were aces! it was crazy lol.

so yea, i got a hundred dollars now =] we didn't even deal until 10 either. we started breaking dfown around 9 15, 9 30. plus we didn't start at 6. a couple people had a couple people at their table, but the rush came around 8 or so. so it was good lol. and we got taco bell on the way home. it was good =] and then i got like super tired, so i went to bed around 11 20. and yea, now it's today! lol

me and my dad are going to go see twlight here in a little bit and then go get a frame for the picture we painted at the Superhero night.

speaking of twlight...my brother texted me last night and he said "your boyfriend was in my store. also, we saw twilight. also also, it was good. also also also, im reading it to rachel at night now" haha, so that was cool.

anyways, ima go play pogo now, lol. so bye

after midnight

2008-12-05T22:53:00.000-08:00

well i redid my wall =] with my mom's help. i don't like hanging things up because i don't want to make it crooked or off-center or whatever, so i always get someone to help me. so my mom helped me and i think it looks really cool =] i've got the poster i made right in the middle and over it is the group picture from Falls Creek and an old pic of me my dad and my brother. and then my calendar is below the poster. there's alot of room on the sides still. anyways, its different, and i like it =]

i was thinking earlier about how my brother taught me an easy way to do subtraction. and then later, i taught one of my classmates that same exact way (this was when we were in public school). i remember this other kid telling me that we were doing subtraction not adding, and i was like yea i know. anyways, i was just thinking about that, and how my brother taught that to me, and yea lol.

anyways, i guess i should go to bed, so goodnight

which came first

2008-12-05T15:22:00.000-08:00

which came first: the chicken or the egg?

i know the answer to this!! finally, lol, after thinking about it for a loooooooooooooong time (like for years) i finally figured it out. and it's really simple actually. the chicken came first. wanna know how i know? i know because God created all the animals. and i'm pretty sure he didn't make the eggs first. i'm pretty sure when he made the animals, they were already fully grown, like humans were (adam and eve). so, there's my answer. the chicken came first.

i'm back =]

2008-12-05T14:58:00.000-08:00

so i'm back! finally lol. habent really felt like getting on until now, so yea. hope yall had a great turkey day! i had a good one, despite the fact that i don't really like thanksgiving lol. we had alot of good food though =]

me and my aunt went shopping on Black Friday. i had never been before but she's been going for the past 10 years or so. she asked if i wanted to go so i said sure lol. what a surprise i was in for too. i have NEVER seen walmart so crowded! there were literally NO parking spaces, we had to park in a different lot, and inside was like a claustrophobics worst nightmare, no kidding! people were so close to each other there was no room to walk. it was CRAZY! but my aunt got alot of stuff there. she wanted a personal dvd player for my grandma but there was too long of a line, so we didn't get it. but i saw kevin there lol. that was cool =]

so we went to alot of places. walmart, jo anns, mardels, michaels, jc penny. my aunt got alot of stuff and i got some presents out of the way =]

as of right now, i only have a few more people to buy for though. my aunt got my brother and rachels present for me, so when i see her ill give her the money for it. and my sister's ds game FINALLY came in the mail today! i've had the boys' for a little while now. so i only have my mom (i officially nominate her 'the hardest person to buy for' lol), mike, and part of my dad's and kevin's gifts to get. which isn't alot at all =] so i'm happy about that.

and we got our christmas tree up! it's really pretty this year. even prettier than last year, and last year i really liked it. so me and my sister wrapped presents together and put them under the tree =] can't wait til christmas! i love christmas lol

so i have my first gig of the year tomorrow night at 6. it lasts until 10. one hour longer than usual....but i get paid more for it =] $40 more than normal so im good lol. its the Ben E. Keith party, but its not at the same place this year. my dad is going with me though so it's all good.

exciting news!! me and kevin have been together for 9 months!!! it's so cool =] he really is the best and i really think we are meant to be. only time will tell. but i love him with all my heart =] hes cwazy lol.

ooo, and i made this collage on posterboard. i got a bunch of things out of magazines ( i actually had too many...oh well) and glued them all to this black piece of poster board! i think it looks really cool =] i'm gonna hang it up. i think it's gonna go on the wall by my bed. i'm going to redo that wall, take the puzzles down and stuff. i might put them back up, idk yet. we'll see

and i started this other thing called One Word. basically, the site gives you one word and you have 60 seconds to write whatever you want about it and then click submit. it's pretty cool. i found it from this other person on fictionpress. so i'm putting mine on fictionpress too! =]

i made this quiz the other day (link here: http://www.quizyourfriends.com/take-quiz.php?id=&a=1& ) and sent it to a bunch of people, who took it and then in turn made their own quizzes. so we were all making and taking quizzes about each other the other day lol. it was fun.

this was the kid named jimmy at my old church and we used to talk online alot, but we got distnat and stopped talking. well, he messaged me the other day on myspace and asked if i remembered him and said we should catch up. so i added him back to my myspace. we havn't really talked yet though. we're never on at the same time. but i wanna ask him about his daughter!! i wonder how old she is now...

anyways, alot has happened since i last updated (obviously) so yea, lol. i gues that's it for now, unless i think of something else. so later!

bad news + bad news = no good news

2008-11-25T11:34:00.001-08:00

well it turns out kevin and his mom aren't moving into that house in saganaw. apparently they weren't the only people with a deposit on the house, and so it sold to another person. so kevin's mom is pretty bummed about it. now they have to go back to looking for houses AGAIN. kinda sux...but at the same time, it's good for me and kevin because he'll still be here for a while.

also, my mom hasn't been feeling very well. doctors say that it's probably a bad case of a stomach virus. but she was in a lot of pain this morning. she said that apart from child birth, shes never been in so much pain. it's scary.

money made, money spent

2008-11-22T20:12:00.000-08:00

i went and saw twilight today!! it was pretty sweet =] kevin and his mom took me. i want the movie =] watching the movie has made me want to reread the book. the books are sooooo much better! but the movie was still good =]

and earlier we had our garage sale. we made close to $400 total! my mom made about 115, mike about 71, me about 81, brianna about 40, and the boys each made about 28. overall it was a really good sale =] we sold ATON of stuff, and yet we had ATON of stuff left over lol. so whatever didn't sell went to GoodWill.

now i'm tired lol. my mom is out seeing twilight right now and mike is asleep. the kids are in bed watching movies (which is where i will be soon)

i don't know when i will be back, so if i don't come back before thanksgiving, Have a Happy Thanksgiving!!

=[

2008-11-19T19:43:00.000-08:00

well....i have some good news and i have some bad news. the good news is that kevin and his mom found a house. they put a downpayment on it and everything. the bad news is that it's in Saganaw...so much for stayin in this area....

Christmas is coming!

2008-11-18T10:17:00.000-08:00

ok, im back for now =] so this past weekend was my grandmas garage sale and my aunt and i went to help her with it. it was ok. it was FREEZING outside and we didn't have alot of people show up, but i guess she did alright with what she had out there. i also got 20 bucks from my aunt for helping =] i wasn't expecting that so that was cool. it went towards Chritmas presents.

and i know what i'm getting everyone! well almost everyone. here's the list:
Mom: can't say because she reads this blog!!!
Mike: i'm actually not sure yet
Grandma: i made her a cross-stitch angel and i'm going to frame it. i also got some candy to go with it
Pa: chocolate covered cherries
Aunt Stacy and John: a tin of Ginger Snap cookies and Kung Fu Panda
Jonathan and Rachel: Pictionary Man
Daddy and Belinda: i had a picture taken for them
Christian: a DS game and a Ben Ten toy
Brandon: a DS game and a Ben Ten toy
Brianna: a DS game and Junie B. Jones books
Kevin: cant say because he reads this blog!!!

haha. yup yup. so i've got about half of it so far. i'm broke right now though so i can't get anymore at this moment. but i'm hoping that ima get some good money from our garage sale this saturday! i've got a lot of stuff to sell so hopefully it will go good.

me and my aunt are going shopping the day after thanksgiving. things will be on sale then so hopefully i can get some deals or something =]

me and Kevin are gonna go get pictures taken as well, so i might add those pictures to a few of the christmas gifts. i need a picture of us =] lol

anyways, me and Sarah have been talking some. she actually called me last night to see if i was going to volleyball aand we talked for about 10 minutes. she texted me this morning and invited me to her homeschool group on thursday for a thanksgiving thing. i've gotta ask my mom about it still, but i hope i can go =] it will be fun.

i need a good girl friend, so maybe with time Sarah will be that. i can hope =]

anyways, i guess that's it, so later

hopes and dreams

2008-11-13T20:26:00.000-08:00

i wrote a new story today to send into Highlights Magazine!! this one actually uses people as the main characters instead of frogs, which i think will help my cause, but idk. but it might be a few weeks before i submit it anyways because i want other people to review it and tell me what i should make better and what should be changed and stuff. if you wanna read it click on the Fictionpress link to the right of my page and the story is called Last One Picked

R.I.P. board games

2008-11-12T07:38:00.000-08:00

so last night was fun. jon and rachel came by and they stayed here for a little bit and then we left around 445 or so. we went to dinner with my dad and belinda at Johnny Carino's. i dont really like it there very much but i found something that was pretty good. basically its chicken alfredo but not. it was a make your own pasta thing and you could pick your kind of noodles and your kind of sauce. originally i didn't think you could put chicken on it but she asked me if i wanted to add chicken or anything so i did. i got bowtie noodles, alfredo sauce and chicken =] it was not only cheaper than just getting chicken alfredo but its also smaller and more my size. so yea it was good =]

so afterwards we all went back to my dad's house and belinda got on the computer (of course..no surprise there) and the rest of us played games. we played team 8-ball, team 9-ball, and tournament 9-ball in pool. me and my dad won both of the team games and i think my dad won the tournie. so after that we played Pictionary! and that was really fun!! none of us had played it in a long time so it was cool. we kept the same teams as pool, and me and my dad BARELY won. it was a really close game =]

by the time the game ended it was about 10 30 so we left. all in all it was a good night (good day really). the only bad thing was i found out my fishie didn't make it =( poor Cerulean. i tried. i did what i could. she was just too damaged to heal. Rest in peace Cerulean.

i also figured out what I'm probably getting jon and rachel for Christmas =]] i'm gettign them one gift together and they keep saying board games. well last night they brought up Pictionary Man. so i might get that. and we also were thinking about playing Tri-Bond and jon really likes that game, so i might get that one. i'm not sure yet. heck, depending on how much they are they might get both (doubtful tho lol). so yea we'll see =]]

well i gotta get going, lots of things to do today. chores and school mainly lol. and church later. so yup, have a good day yall =] i dont know when i'll be back

left, left, left right

2008-11-11T12:27:00.000-08:00

i went to the Veteran's Parade downtown today =] kevin's mom took me. it was pretty cool! my baby is soooo handsome =] i also saw thomas. and i like the marching bands, those are cool!

anyways lol. after that we went to World Mart to get some ginger snap cookies that his mom likes and then we picked up kevin from school and went to Chillis. it was good =] we had to take him back afterwards cuz he still has school today lol. but yea it was fun =]

and then a little later im going to dinner for belindas birthday. jon and rachel are picking me up. well thats it for now, don't forget to check back on the question of the day! =]

2008-11-10T15:52:00.000-08:00

but anyway, he got alot of cool stuff, like a DS and games for it, alot of clothes, some candy, stuff like that. so far, it looks like Spongebob Squarpants Drawn to Life is his favorite DS game. and me and all of the kids have been playing the mini-games together on Mario. he got that game too.
so yea, he had a good birthday =]

we're in the process of getting ready for a garage sale. it wont be this saturday but next, on the 22nd. my aunt is having one on the 21st and my grandma is having one this saturday. me and my aunt are going to go help her with it.

yup yup. and it's about that time to start buying christmas presents. i know what im getting for some people, but not everybody yet. i gotta start saving my money.

hopefully after Christmas if i have some money i'm going to get another fish tank at my dads house. i like fish, theyre fun to look at =] especially when you're laying in bed at night lol.

and i changed the gerbils cage yesterday and usually when i change their cage i give them a treat, like nuts or fruit or something, so i gave them so nuts and crackers! theyve never had crackers before but they seemed to like them =]

and then tomorrow i'm going to the veterans parade with kevins mom! kevin's gonna be in the parade =] he was in it last year too and mike took me for it. it was pretty cool =]

and i completley redid my myspace last night. got a new background, redid everything i had written on it, deleted some stuff, took off all my pictures and put just a few back on there. i like it =]

i use a lot of smileys lol

wow, thats more than i thought i was gonna write. i guess im done for now lol. bye!

update on Cerulean

2008-11-04T08:40:00.000-08:00

so last night i was watching the fish after Cerulean had gotten stuck in the filter, and Pepper kept bullying Cerulean. So I had to put her in a different tank so maybe she can heal. i also put some salt in her tank because 1) alot of people online said it helps fish to grow back fins and 2) it said on the box that it helps treat fish. so yea, she's got her own bowl as of now sitting next to the other tank.

my dad came in to say goodnight and he said that she kept looking longingly over towards the fliter like maybe she wanted to commict fish suicide. i told him that was funny because i was just thinkg about that. do fish commit suicude? there's a question of the day for you lol

our song

2008-11-04T08:26:00.000-08:00

so Kevin was saying that he had a strong feeling I would like this one song by Lifehouse called "Whatever It Takes" so he had me listen to it. and omgosh! i almost cried because of how much this song reminded me of us. i told him that i was going to think about him every time I heard it and he asked me why. and i told him because he always says he'll do whatever it takes to keep us together. so later that day we were talking and he said he never wanted to lose me and he would do anything and everything to keep us together. and i said i didn't want to lose him either and i would also do anything and everything to keep us together and i said that should be our song. and he "its official, whatever it takes by lifehouse is our song forever" so we have a song now =]] which i think is really cool because we never have before. we actually never even brought it up before. but i think this songs describes us perfectly. i love it, and i love him =]]]

i love you soooo much teddy bear! i'll do whatever it takes =]

(p.s. if you havn't heard the song before and you would like to, go to www.projectplaylist.com and search for Whatever It Takes)

awwww, my poor fishie =( she got stuck in the bottom of the tank filter (this is how Salt died). luckily, i was able to help get her out before she died. but she did get some battle wounds. her back fin is pretty much gone. i've been looking online to see if fins grow back or not and alot of sources say that with time, fins willl grow back, but they might not be as good as before.

poor fishie

on the other hand, all three of them seem to be pretty healthy. i can remember a time when they had a big bulge like on their stomach area, but they seem to have grown and filled themselves out because they no longer have bulges and they look bigger lol. i think albino looks the healthiest though.

money makers

2008-11-03T17:58:00.001-08:00

so im home from my little outting. i found the game i was looking for for brandon at GameStop! it was actually the only copy of it they had. it's Spongebob Squarepants: Atlantis Squarepantis.

and i had more money than i thought i did so i was able to get the fish some filters so now they can have a clean tank ^.^

yup yup.

i've got some gigs set for december! the 6th and the 13th. i'm not sure where they are yet but my dad will be going with me so it's all good. each gig pays 100 bucks =] which is really good cuz usually its only 60. so yea, 80 extra bucks for me ^.^

hi again!

2008-11-03T14:26:00.001-08:00

so Halloween was fun =] the kids all liked their costumes (the boys have been wearing theirs and playing in them) and kevin came over and went trick-or-treating with us. its only because of him that i went up to each door lol. he made me haha =D but it was fun

and my grandma and aunt spent the weekend at our house so we played alot of trvia and stuff. me and kevin and his mom went to the movies on saturday night (which was 8 months btw! =] ). we saw Max Payne, but we didn't really get it lol. i fell asleep on kevins shoulder towards the end of the movie lol. hes really comfortable =]

and then on sunday i spent some time with my sis. we went bike riding and then when we came back we played Disney trivia with the boys. we played two games. i won one and she won one. the boys did pretty good too, they were on a team together. and then we just colored and watched Balto until dinner.

so now im at my dads house just chillin. and talkin to kevin =] when my dad gets home ima go to gamestop and see if i can find brandon a game for his birthday. and if ihave enough money ill go to petsmart and see if i can find another filter for the fishtank. and then i have to take some books back to the library.

yup yup. and i've started another cross-stitch too. it's this cat and it says "A Crazy Wonderful Weird Cat Lives Here" or somethihng like that. i think ima give it to miss amy cuz it really fits her style and her kitties =] lol.

belindas birthday is wednesday. we're gona take her to dinner on sunday probably. they wanted to take her this past sunday but she had stuff to do on WoW *rolls eyes*

well thats about it for now so later!!

a fun-filled weekend

2008-10-26T16:04:00.000-07:00

so i had a fun and exciting weekend! =] on friday night, we (we being me, my mom, mike, and the kids) went to eat at SouperSalad! and then went to my brother's place for a while. technically, it's actually his and his girlfriend's place now though because she moved in with him. so we played a couple games of Scene It! and some Rockband andwe werethere til about 12 or so. it was cool.

and then the next day we (being the same we i mentioned above) all went to the Dallas Musuem of Nature and Science! it was alot of fun =] my aunt came with us too. we (everybody but my aunt, because she didn't get there til after) went to the planetarium first. it was cool. i liked the part where the dude told us about the night sky more than the little video we watched though lol. and then we checked out some of the exibits and hung around for a bit, then grabbed some lunch. this is when my aunt came. and then everybody except me my mom and my aunt went to the IMAX and they all thought it was pretty cool. it makes the three of us sick tho =/ so after that we checked out the rest of the exhibits and went to the giftshop before it closed. i got a crocodile (no, not a real one, a stuffed one) and named him Jupiter, because that's one of the planets the guy told us about in the planetarium. the other one was venus. so yea it was cool =] things like this bring out the little kid in me, haha. i was such a big "little" kid that day! it was fun, and the kids had fun too. we then proceeded to go to diner at this place called Tony's over where my aunt lives and our uncle met us there. it's an alright place. you could easily make a meal out of the appetozers and bread they bring you lol. i pretty much did. i didn't eat too much of my main meal. then my aunt came home with us and stated the night =]

and then today i took my sister to see High School Musical 3. it was good, just like the others really lol. i think this one had more music than the others did though. but yea it was cool. all of us have just been chilloin since then. my aunt left not too long ago, but she'll be back on Halloween.

brandon is going as Sub-zero, christian as Scorpion, and brianna probably as Hannah Montanna. i havent decided if im dressing up yet or not, but if i do ima dress up as a pirate. same one from the daddy daughter dinner lol. i think i might, just because its such a cool costume lol.

but yea, thats my weekend =] how was yours?

=D

2008-10-22T22:19:00.001-07:00

i like it when good thigns start happening to everybody =]

exes

2008-10-22T11:46:00.000-07:00

how come when something reminds you of an ex, you either welcome it or push it as far away as possible? it also depends on which ex it is...like there's certain songs that remind of certain exes, and i can listen to certain songs and be like "oh this reminds of so-and-so" but with other songs im like "this reminds me of so-and-so, i can't listen to it"

idk, i just find it weird. its not specifically with songs either. it could be anything. words, phrases, gestures, voices, objects...anything. memories are a funny thing aren't they?

=P

2008-10-21T17:17:00.000-07:00

well i dont really have anything to talk about right now, i just don' want to have 129 posts, cuz it bugs me lol.

so yea....um, well, i updated some threads: Book List, Awesome Quotes, and My Favorite Poems

and sometime, i'm going to go through ALL the posts i've written and edit them, because i know i've got alot of mistakes in here. but i like editing =] so it'll give me some practice!

ok thats enough for a good post, lol. bye!

monday, tuesday, happy days!

2008-10-21T12:14:00.000-07:00

today is a much better day than yesterday was! yesterday i was so out of it, felt like crap, was tired and hot and yea, not a good day. but today i feel great! refreshed even =] im not even cramping, which is kinda weird cuz normally i still would be, but whatever. im much happier today =]]

belinda stayed home from work today, so im not completley alone today either. she also made cookies!=] snickerdoodles. i dont think ive ever had them before, but they're really good! cookies are always the best right out of the oven...nice and soft and chewy....yea, hey were good lol

but my poor baby isn't feelin good =( he hasnt been for the past few days. he stayed hoeme from school today, and hopefully he will tomorrow too, cuz he needs to rest. i doubt that he'll be going to church tomorrow. poor guy...i think he's got the flu but he says it's something else, he just doesn't know what. but whatever it is, i hope he feels better soon!

i noticed the other day that one of the gems had fallen out of my heart neckalce that my baby gave me for my birthday, and i have no clue when it happened or where it is either. it was vewwy sad =( anyways, i stopped wearing it after that and started wearing a necklace that a friend, Clark, gave me. its a silver cross. i like it and all, but it's not the same...i really liked wearing the heart necklace...i need a new one now lol

so my friend mike called me the other night and asks me if i want a kitten lol. i told him i would except i can only have two =/ but he found this kitten on the way home from work. hes gotten attached to it but he cant keep it because taylor and his mom are allergic to cats. so he might bring it to the church tomorrow and see if anyone wants it. if he does, that kitten will sooooo be my buddy tomorrow lol. he thinks its a girl so he named it Katie, but hes not positive. so i told him i would look for him if he brought her to the church. i hope he finds a good home for it =]

well, ima go play some rockband now, so ill talk to yalls later =P

did i make my point?

2008-10-19T19:46:00.000-07:00

so something that's been on my mind alot latley is guys with pictures of half naked girls everywhere. i was at my brothers the other day and i noticed he had alot of new pictures. 4 of them were either of girls kissing, girls half naked, or both. and then at my house those kind of pictures are all over the garage. and to me it's very degrading and disrespectful, especially to any other girl in the house. like for my brother, it would be disrespectful to his girlfriend first and then to any other girl who visits him, like me. and at my house it's disrespectful to me, my mom, and my sister first because we all live there, and then to any other girls who visit.

i don't think they mean it that way at all, but i just don't see the point of it. it feels like 1) you're comparing your girl to all those girls in the pictures and 2) saying that you're not as good as them. again, i dont think they mean it this way, but that's what i get out of it. you already have a wife or a girlfriend to fil those human desires of yours, so why put a bunch of other half naked/kissing women up to fantasize over?

anyways, i'm not going to allow that kind of stuff in my house when i grow up. its one think to go out and see these kinds of things just because thats how some people dress or whatever, but its totally different when you purposely put the thoughts and images in your head. and i dont want that in my house.

no offense to anyone. just my opinions.

p.s. it would be the same for girls who have pictures of half naked guys/kissing guys everywhere.

a pirates life for me...Arg!

2008-10-18T20:45:00.000-07:00

so i had alot of fun tonight with my daddy, Captain Jack Sparrow =]]] i'll just start from the beggining...miss raylenes house. we all met there to make dinner for our Superheros. dinner was lasagna. (we also had salad and bread...but we didnt make that) we each did a little part of the actual cooking and then we had these little tin dishes that we put individual servings in for us and our Superhero. some of us (Super Skillet Mama, me, sarah, ashley, and amy) were a little bit late because we were waiting for the lasangas to finish cokking in the oven, so we got started a little bit late, but it was ok. we also each made nameplates for us and our Superheros so we would know where we were going to sit. so i mine said Lil Sparrow and my dad's said CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow...except for i misspelled captain, lol. i spelt it c-a-p-t-i-a-n, haha. i didnt notice this until we were eating dinner though. oh well!

so after we got to the church, i met my dad outside, who of course was Captain Jack Sparrrow =) (he stayed in character all night too, accent and everything! i didnt do the accent cuz i didnt know how lol) and we went in and we all sat down and Super Skillet Mama (known as SSM from here on out) told us how dinner was gonna work out. basically, before we got any food, SSM took pictures of everyone with their Superhero and then we got salad and bread and drinks, and they gave us the lasanga at the tables. it didn't really look like a whole lot, but it filled us up! it was pretty good too =] after that we got to make mud pies =] haha. they had made some pudding and then they had us crush some oreos and sprinkle them over it and then put gummy worms on top and then whipped cream. i mostly just ate the gummy worms lol, but my dad ate the pudding.

after dinner, the crazyness began! we were give a piece of paper to keep score of our points for the night and they had us all make up a team name. our name was "The Pirate Munkays" lol. the papers were different colors: yellow, pink, blue...and....well another color, i dont remember what lol,but basically the same colored paper people were all in the same group. my group had me and my dad (duh), lauren and her uncle and sandra, and abby and her dad. first we went to the Training Arena. we didn't do so good in this round lol. the first game (there were 3 games in this section) was called "Don't Blow It" and we had to keep a kleenex up in the air by blowing on it. it was hard lol. we came in last with 1,000 points. we then played "Bunny Brawl" which was basicaly Chubby Bunny...not as easy as it looks lol. we got to 4 marshmallows before we gave up. they were pretty much gagging me and they were hurting my dads teeth, so we came in last on that one too lol. but the other two teams tied so we got 1,500 points instead of just 1,000. then we did a three-legged race (i dont remember what they called it though) and we came in second on this one!! it was quite interesting lol. but it was fun =]

after that, we went to "Superhero Interviews" and me and my dad both really liked this part of the night. all of the girls sat on one side of the table and all the Superheros on the other, and this was a little wall made of toy bricks (i helped make it!!) so we couldn't see each other. and then Miss Julie asked the Superheors questions about their "sidekicks" and we had to write down our answers. after we wrote our answers, she had the dads say their answers out loud and if our answers matched we got 500 points. after so many questions he switched and had the Suerheros write down their answers and the sidekicks answer out loud. we had the chance to get 7,000 points. we got 1,500 lol. but it was more than anyone else in our group got!! so it was all good =]

after that we went to "Finger Agility". it was fingerpainting =D except the superheros were blindfolded and the sidekicks used the superheros hand(s)/finger(s) to paint a picture. the picture was supposed to be of our favorite vacation together. so being pirates, we painted an island with a palm tree on it and then the ocean with our ship, and the sun lol. it won first place for 3,000 points!! =] so that was alot of fun. we're going to frame it and ill prolly hang it in my room =]

then we went to the final station "Sonic Boom". we did alright here. not great though.it was SingStar, but we didnt pick the right song to sing. we did Ice Ice Baby because out of the ones we heard that was the best, but after hearing the rest of the songs, we could have done better, but oh well. we still got 2,840 points

so after everyone had finished all their stations, we went back and sat down at the tables and they told us the top three best costumes, the top three fan-favorite pictures, the top three judges pictures, and the top three overall. we got best costume for 6,000 points!!! and best judge picture for 3,000 points. and we came in 3rd over all with like 17,340 points =]]] my dad got a pen for winning. they took a picture of all the top three winners togehter.

it was alot of fun and im glad we went =] we talked about it on the way home and said they should do something like that again sometime. i love my daddy =]]

quick update

2008-10-17T22:11:00.000-07:00

so i just got home from being with my dad, brother, and brothers girlfriend. first, we went to dinner at this place called Taist of Asian. it's pretty good! makes you full, thats for sure. then wewent back to my brothers apartment and played a little bit of Rockband. but we got tired of that and started playing Scene It! i like that game, its fun =] even though i came in last both games lol. my dad won both of them.

and then tomorrow is the Superhero thing with my dad!! should be fun =]]

well im tired...i think ima clear off my bed and go to sleep. night yall...love you baby

thats all

2008-10-16T11:22:00.000-07:00

so i've got this idea for a story to write, but it's gonna be more like a letter than a story. if i take my time with it, i think it could be pretty cool =] its based off a true story too.

the Superhero thing is coming up quick! this saturday =] should be fun!

email chat

2008-10-14T06:18:00.000-07:00

so as it turns out, i didnt get any sleep last night. my ipod was completley dead (and i dont have the USB cord with me to charge it) and i couldnt fall asleep just by laying in bed. so i got up and i was watching Dexter-this serial killer show and its really good. watched it all night. ive watched the first 8 episodes of season 1. i only watched 4 last night, and then 4 the night before that. but now im at a total loss. im still wide awake, tired of watching dexter, dont wanna read...dont reallly know what else to do. my stomachs still botering me a little bit too. and my head. my head is telling me to sleep, but i cant =/

Rocky, my stuffed rottweiler (sp?) has been keeping me company since about 430 this morning. hes just kinda been my buddy. he didnt really watch dexter though, just listened. he was turned away from the tv. hes really soft lol.

i heard both my dad and belinda get up for work. and now theres a guy lawn mowing outside and its making my head hurt more. think ima go try to sleep.

catch ya later

party in the early morning hours

2008-10-14T02:02:00.001-07:00

so its 4 o clock in the morning, i havent been to sleep yet, i'm not tired, and now i have nothing to do. i already did things that needed to be done (like clear all the coke cans off my desk) and things that were just interesting (like searching the web for Twilight stuff =]]] ). so now i'm tired of reading, i'm tired of pogo and myspace and google, i dont want to play rockband because i dont want to wake anybody up....and i'm still REALLY thirsty. i dont know why, but i've been really really thirsty like all day. so for the past few hours i've been drinking Vault, an energy drink that drinks like a coke. in fact, it's probably the reason i'm still up right now. but i've been soooo thirsty and that's really the only thing i have left to drink besides rootbeer (which ive had all day) and diet sunkist (which really doesnt taste that great to me). i guess ima have to drink one or the other tomorrow though because i only have 2 cans of rootbeer left and just a tiny bit of Vault....ugh, my stomach hurts now...too much Vault. i feel wired and twitchy. i've probably had almost the whole 2-liter within the past few hours....i've got the chills now lol. well i'm not really tired, but i don't really know what else to do now, so ima go listen to my ipod and see if i cant fall asleep. night everyone, sweet dreams

our buddies

2008-10-12T20:49:00.000-07:00

so this is a good up close pic of sammy =]

and then we have Christian and Sammy and Me and River =] sammy is christians buddy and river is my buddy

i'll show you how deep the rabbit hole goes

2008-10-12T20:34:00.000-07:00

so i've kinda realized that the story to the Matrix is kinda like Jesus, because in the last movie both Neo (the One) and the Agents die. if Neo hadn't of died, then the world still would have been trapped in the matrix, trapped in their sin. but because he died, the world was set free. it's basically the same thing with Jesus. if Jesus had not diedfor our sins, there would be NO WAY that we would be free, sinless....yea, there are defintily big diffferences between the two (like the fact that Jesus KNEW he was going to die for us and Neo had to find out later) but i thought it was kinda cool that they had that similarity.

also....in the movie, it mentions both Nebacanezzer (sp?) and Trinity (like the Trinity, Father Son and the Holy Spirit)

we the kings

2008-10-11T17:53:00.000-07:00

i've devolped somewhat of a crush on the band We the Kings, lol. they're really pretty cool! i've been listeneing to their songs alot. and i've been watching The Kings Carriage on youtube, haha, funny stuff right there! i want their self-titled cd =]

TWILIGHT is coming out in the theatres on november 21st!!!! it's gonna be so coool!! i'm a little weary about it though because i dont know how well it will hold up to my expectations. so we'll see. but either way, it should be awesoem!

now i just need to read the last book

so peaceful =]]]]

2008-10-11T17:30:00.003-07:00

so today was like the best day i've had in a long time! this morning, me and my dad went out for a couple hours and we were looking for costumes for the Superhero Dinner. so we went to the magic store first, and they had alot of cool stuff! all kinds of costumes and everything. we decided we were going to go as pirates =] Jack Sparrow (my dad) and the daughter noone knew he had (me) lol. it's gonna be cool!! the costume came with just about everything you need to be a pirate =] so we were looking for just a few more accessories to go with it, but we never did find any. we went to walmart and the dollar tree, but nothing. so after we found our aweseom costumes (we're gonna try them on within the next few days and see what they actually look like, i'll post pics when i can =]) we went to taco bell for brunch. so it was a cool little outting =]

and then when i got home, me and my mom and my sister all did our nails outside (it was BEAUTIFUL outside today!!). my mom and sister did theirs pink (they have different shades though, not the same one) and i've got a pale purple. it's really pretty =] after those dried we ate lunch outside (we were feeding River and Samy popcorn lol) and then me and my mom played my Disney-Pixar Monopoly (yea, outside too lol. we were outside all day today =]) i was the rat from Rattatouile (sp?) and she was Nemo from Finding Nemo. she was winning for the first half of the game, abut i came back and kicked her butt, lol. she had like everything mortgaged by the end of the game and finally just gave me everything haha. it was fun =] after that game was over, my sister joined us and the three of us played Life. i think that might have been my sister's first time playing it, but she did pretty good. that was fun too.

we finally came in and i did my chores (most of them lol) and my mom started dinner, and all in all, it was a pretty awesome day =]]]

talking about other subjects...the cable dude came out the other day and we got new cable. it's pretty cool. we got On Demand now! it's neat =] and we still have the DVR as well. the kids are happy about it because they now have cable in their room. they watched it alot the first day lol.

and there's like a ghost in my radio. it keeps coming on by itself lol. it's kinda weird

i got a good picture of sammy today! my mom also took a pic of me and river and christian and sammy and it's pretty neat too =] ill put them up later though when i download them to my computer.

we lost one of our babysitting kids this past friday. well two actually, but we hardly had one of them. but yea, they moved so we're not watching them anymore. but we got a 6 week old named Carson and he is ADORABLE! he''s been my buddy while he's here lol. again, ill put pics up later. maybe..he's not my kid so i dont know if i'll put his pic up or not, so we'll see.

anyways, i think that's it. so ima help my mom with dinner so talk atcha later =]

time for playdough!

2008-10-07T08:59:00.000-07:00

so the other day, my grandma had this women's conference that lasted most of saturday, so my mom went to it and i watched the kids. well they had been dying to play with playdough like all week, so finally, they got to play with it lol. they made alot of food. gingerbreadmen, spaghetti and meatballs, cookies, sandwhiches, pizza...etc. i made some corn! i made each little nibblet too lol. but anyways, they had fun =] so here's a clip of them. well up there ^ is a clip lol. brandon is the first and last person you see, christian is the other boy, obviously, and brianna is the one in the middle who is saying "no stop it!" cuz she doesnt want to be on film, haha...

here's sammy

2008-10-07T08:48:00.000-07:00

so this is sammy. hes a schnoodle (sp?), a mix between a schnauzer (sp?) and a poodle. he was really really energetic one night so i taught him how to play ball =] even though we usually don't play with a ball lol. but it's fun to play with him. the best toy to use is his squeaky chew toy, that way if he doesn't see you throw it, he'll hear it bounce and chase it anyways. it's fun to throw it in the kitchen and watch him slid on the hard floor lol.
i also like to take him on walks. i've been teaching him that he has to stay to the right of me when we walk, and he does pretty good most of the time. i'm trying to teach him to sit. that one's not workin out so well yet tho.
but anyways, thats sammy!

2008-09-30T15:52:00.000-07:00

so we had my mom's surprise party this past saturday! it was fun =] mike took her out of the house and my aunt came over and my brother and rachel and my grandma and pa and we all helped get everything ready. we took the little couch out of the living room and pushed the big couch up against the glass stuff and we decorated the living room like Viva Las Vegas! me and my brother dressed up and dealt (i did Black Jack and he did Texas Hold'em). and my uncle jake and aunt denise were there too. and my uncle john dressed up as elvis and sang 4 songs. and yea it was neat. i think she had a good time. and she got some cool stuff for presents =] rachel gave her pictures of all her kids. she took the 5 of us to get our pictures taken at walmart a few weeks ago and they turned out pretty cool! i like them =] and so did my mom lol. so yea, i hope she had a good birthday =] i've got a little bag of stuff to keep from the party, like the invitation and stuff =]

so there's this song called Come Home by OneRepublic, and i really love that song! every time i listen to it, i think of this one slash story i read. the story had the song in it ,that's actually where i first "heard" the song. so i decided to look up the real thing and i thought it was really cool so i bought it =] and i love it now lol. if you wanna read the story ( cuz its really good and you should!) here's the link: http://www.fictionpress.com/s/2534189/1/Swing_Sets

and then Kevin listens to this one band, We the Kings, and he listens to the song Check Yes Juliet alot, and so i thought i'd check it out and see what it was. well guess what? its a GOOD song! like chea...it's been stuck in my head all day lol

and guess what? i'm OFFICIALLY in 12th grade!! well sorta. when we go back to school i will be. i just finished the last day of 11th grade so yea =] exciting, yet scary. i'm not sure what i want to do yet and i think i really should know by now. i don't even know if i want to go to college, which means i know nothing about college. so yea...we'll see how well that goes

my mom got a dog on friday. his name is sammy and he is like pitch black. ive been trying to take a picture of him but you can never see his face. so i tried to do a video but he was just sitting there chewing on his rawhide so i didn't keep it. but when i get something, i'll post it so yall can see him. i've been taking him for small walks each day, just around the block. since he's so little i dont know how far he can go. he starts to pant pretty quick so we're not gone too long. but in the few days that we've been going he's learned that he needs to stay to the right of me. and i'm trying to teach him to sit. it's going ok i guess lol

kevin came over yesterday and today after school, and both times he stayed for about an hour =] that makes me happy cuz i love bein with him. he's so great =] i love him lol hes cwazy and hes also a chickenholic! lol

but anyways, lol....not much else has been going on. mea nd miss julie are supposed to go get ice cream later tonight and just talk and hang out and it should be fun =]

sleepless nights

2008-09-23T09:32:00.001-07:00

so i couldnt sleep last night. i was talking to kevin for a while but he had to get up early for ROTC, so he went to bed. i tried to go to bed, but that wasnt happening. so i got up and read lol. im almost done with that book already. i actually dreamt about it too (somewhat) when i finaly did go to sleep! but anyways, it was like 3 30 or something when i actually went to bed, but i realized what the problem was then. it was too quiet. i had been quiet all day and i hadn't really been around any noise either. so i turned my ipod up really loud and fell asleep to that =D it was really comforting really, relaxing to hear noise. you get tired of the silence after a while.

so i put my sheets in the wash earlier, and after i take a shower ima put all my towels and rags in the wash too. that way when i come back, everything will be clean! =]

tink left this morning =[[ at least i KNOW she went to a good home. Ammie took her and shes going to give her to her aunt, beause theywere talking yesterday and her aunt said she wanted a kitten. so Ammie messaged me and asked if we still had kittens, so yea. she took Tink this morning....i said goodbye to her on Sunday night because i had a feeling she would be leaving soon. i guess its not as hard to saygoodbye when you arent there when they leave, but im still going to miss her.

anyways, i have to go add another thread to my random crap space =] lol so see ya later

new pics are up

2008-09-22T18:57:00.000-07:00

This is Albino

This is Cerulean

And this is Pepper

Sadly, I never got a picture of Salt, may she rest in peace...

so i went to the library earlier and dropped off my books and i've been craving chocolate so i went to walmart and got some. yay, a chocolate fix =]

my dad is really loving and caring =] he came home today and i was in my room sleeping off and on, and he came and checked on me cuz mayme said that she hadn't seen me all day (there's a reason for that) and he just thought hed check on me since he was home. he always checks on mayme too. so yea, just thought id share that lol

i'm about one third of the way through the sequel to twilight, new moon. its really good =] i finished the window earlier and started new moon today. thats really all ive done today is read and sleep. but im ok with that.

i SHOULD study...but i can never find any motivation to do it....whats the point? im not going to remember the words anyway. yea, i know i need to do it for the GED but i'm pretty sure that i can do pretty good on the test, especially if it's mulitple choice and/or gives some context. so again...i dont see the point of doing it.

but i did do one of the journal entries. now i just gotta do the other one before wednesday.

anyway, im about done on here so talk to yall later

dont be discouraged

2008-09-22T09:41:00.000-07:00

i know i havnt written in a little while, but there's really not that much to talk about...yet at the same time there's so much...

i've been reading alot latley. getting lost in the lives of other ppl. the last book i read was about a blind girl and the history of her family. sounds boring, but it's really not. really interesting actually.
ima go back to the library tonight, and even though i havent read all my books yet, im going to return them all so i can finish reading the twilight series. my mom bought all 4 books.

on saturday, me and my mom and mike were talking about some things, alot of things really, and mike said something that made me feel really good inside. made me feel like im doing a good job even when im not exactly sure what im doing. he said that my christianity is an example to him and that im not one to flaunt it, and if i do flaunt it i back it up. he said that most christians say one thing and do another, but that im not like that either. its really important tot me...even though right now i dont have the strongest faith, i still want to be a good example in everything i do, and when said that i was like at the highest point that i could be, because he isnt a christian yet and he said that i was being an example to him, and it was just really uplifting. it makes me want to try even harder to find the faith that ive been looking for.

and i guess that about it really...for now anyways.

rant about cooking

2008-09-16T11:23:00.000-07:00

ok, so what is it with people dissing women that don't cook? i've been told that if a women can't cook, then she shouldn't be considered a women, and i've been told that if I personally don't cook, then im going to make a lousy house wife. whats up with that?? just because i don't cook (and i don't because i don't like to) doesn't make me any less of a women or a wife. in my opinion, the cooking (and cleaning and all the other housework for that matter) should be left for the husband and wife to decide who does it. personally, i think that when i get married, me and my husband will share that job. no, i don't like to cook, but i also don't think it's fair to make him do it all the time either. i can cook if i want to. and people shouldn't judge others based on stereotypical facts.

peace out

2008-09-15T19:03:00.000-07:00

so i got back from my outing not too long away. i went to the library first and got my card renewed and i was there for a couple hours. i looked for the next book in the twilight series but the only one they had was Eclipse. so i read this other book instead (by read i mean i finished it at the library). it was about an illegal affair between a teacher and a student. it was good =] and then i got some other books too!

so i left there about 7:50 and went to petsmart. i was gonna buy a snail, but the lady said that the betas sometimes eat the snails =/ so i didnt. i got two other betas instead =] a bluer one namedCerulean and a white one named Albino. so now i have 3 fishies!! =] yay me lol

so me and my dad are gonna go to the store tomorrow night. and thats about it really. so yea. im eating and playing pogo so lata foo!

R.I.P. Salt

2008-09-15T10:58:00.000-07:00

awww, poor Salt. my fishie died today. i'm not exactly sure how since she was alive just last night. but i hadn't seen her at all this morning so i thought i'd look for her and i found her dead underneath the tank filter =( rest in peace salt.

Crazy Funky Junky Hat

2008-09-15T09:32:00.000-07:00

this is my crazy little sister doing the crazy funky junky hat song =]

playful and sleepy

2008-09-15T09:24:00.000-07:00

so this is Tink playing with one of her toys (it has been passed down from like all of my cats and they all LOVE it!) and if you watch closely in the background, you can see River falling asleep in the foodbowl >.<

tired

2008-09-14T18:14:00.001-07:00

so yesterday was Christians party and it went really well =] it was actually prollly one of the best saturday's ive had in a long time. we played games, ate tacos that my mom made, and Christian opened all his presents and after the kids went to ed we stayed up and playeed games. it was cool =]

so christian actually got alot of stuff for gettin a DS for his birthday. he got 5 games i think, some TMNT toys, a couple movies, some money, a big search and find color book, lots of clothes, and a few other things. he made out lol . he didn't realy act too excited about the DS but we all knew he was just holding it in. hes been wanting one and everything and thats been the main thing hes been playing with since yesterday. so he was happy with it =] he won't actually be 7 until the 16th tho.

and i found this out like one or two weeks ago, but kevin isnt moving to saganaw!!! =D they are still moving, but it's gonna be somewhere around this area, and they will be staying here until he graduates =] thats like soooo awesome!! i'm really happy about that

we started a new series about dating in Xcelerate, and i liked it alot mroe than i thought i would today. i think the reason is that we broke up into 2 smaller groups rather than being one big group. and it goes faster and you get to say more of what you want to say and stuff, and i didn't feel so much like an outsider, so that was really cool =]

and i guess that's about it really. well not really, but i dont wanna go into all the small details so yea. anyways, later

100th anniversary

2008-09-12T21:02:00.000-07:00

yay!!! we've reached 100 posts!! lets celebrate ;)

at the movies

2008-09-12T20:56:00.000-07:00

so i got home from the movies a little while ago. i went with kevin and his mom and paul. it was cool! mainly cuz i got to see my baby today and hang out with him for a few hours =] but the movie was good too. sooooo much better than the mummy lol. we saw Bangkok (sp?) Dangerous. there really wasn't a whole lot of talking in the movie either, mainly just watching and figuring out what's going on. but yea, it was cool. we went to the movie tavern so me and kevin shared a cheese pizza. it was alright. i liked it better than most things ive gotten at the movie tavern, so yea. and when he ordered it the waitress was like "you want the kids meal?" lol, i found that hilarious =]] and then we had a coke each, and the cokes each had two straws!! that amused me =] lol. usually when we're out with his mom we end up going to walmart before they take me home, but we didn't tonight so he was like "wow, this is the first time i've been out with amber and we haven't gone to walmart!" haha. yup yup, he's awesome and i love him sooo much!! =]

fluffy cheerful kittens

2008-09-12T12:12:00.001-07:00

awwww, velvet and rose just left us =( the lady that took them seemed really nice though, so i'm sure they're going to a good home. we tried to get her to take all three, but no, she only wanted two, so poor tink is gonna have to be completley seperated from her family =( unless i can convince my mom to let us keep her, but that's kinda doubtful. i almost cried when they left...still am about to really, but yea. i'll miss them

but on the brighter side of things, the lady that came this morning for babysitting seemed really nice too! i really liked her =] her son, Carson, is only 3 weeks old and she said she's pretty sure that she's gonna start bringing him here while she's at work, so that's good =]

me and kevin and his mom might go see a movie tonight. he said that she wants to, she's just not sure what time yet. so hopefully i can go. and christian's b-day party is tomorrow! he's pretty excited =]

but yea, i got stuff to do so ill talk atcha laters

another video of the kittens

2008-09-11T14:30:00.000-07:00

relief is bliss

2008-09-11T14:18:00.001-07:00

so i've gotten some things done within the past few days that have been kinda weighin on my chest, and i feel alot better! i feel relieved to have them done, whatever those things may have been. and yea, there's still some things there that i can't nessecarily fix, but im just hoping that those will get better in time. (that's a song by Leona Lewis....)

on soem other sad news...this lady is supposed to be coming to get two of the kittens tomorrow =( i don't want them to leave....it'll be another sad time

we also have a lady coming over early tomorrow to talk to mom about babysitting. her kid is 3 weeks old =] so that might be fun

so kevin had his other surgery earlier today. hopefully, they wont have to take him under again, but they're trying to make sure all the infection is out and stuff, so yea. poor guy....he doesn't like it at all. but i keep tellin him that it's supposed to make him better.

and yea, i think thats about it for now. so see ya

its been a while

2008-09-08T20:55:00.000-07:00

so i had a pretty good weekend. saturday i was supposed to go to the church for "That Thing On Saturday" but it got cancelled, so instead, me and my little sibs and my mom and mike and aunt hung out all day. first we went to denny's, then we went to gamestop and cato's, and then we went to see Kung Fu Panda (cute movie!) and after that we went to the mall. and oh yea, my mom and aunt got me carrying a bag now. not a purse. i dont carry purses. but a bag. its different. but i dont hate it or anything.

anyways, yesterday me and mike went to Six Flags, fun fun =] we are so spoiled lol. we're used to going when there's hardly anyone there, so there could be like 4 people in line ahead of us and we'd be like, man we gotta wait. lol. but it was fun. we went on the titan 3 times, the giant once (the roughest ride at the park!), the shockwave 3 times, mr freeze once, batman once, aquaman 4 times, the acme rocket once....and i think that's it. and we also went up to the top of the really tall tower thing, i'd never been up there before so it was cool. we had fun =]

so that was my weekend. i ended up not going to my dads this week, but i should be going next week. this weekend is my lil brother's b-day party. he's going to be 7 on the 16th =] he's getting a DS. hes gonna be excited about that

but i dont know, there's been alot on my mind latley, seems like there's alot of thigns going on right now, some good and some not so good. but yea. i really dont wanna say anything else so talk to you later

check out these cuties!

2008-09-04T22:34:00.000-07:00

so here are the kittens in video form!! the very first kitten you see is Tink. the one that you can barley see eating in the food bowl is Velvet. The one with it's back to the camera is River (the one we're going to keep) and the other one is Rose. aren't they adorable! i love them =]

self-control

2008-09-04T09:16:00.000-07:00

so. theres kind of alot i gotta say right now. unfortunatley, i prolly wont remember all of it =/
but my sister really liked her fish =] hes really cool looking and mainly blue, so she named him Indigo. and i decided that i would give one of the tmnt guys to the boys now, and give them each one of their birthdays, so they were pretty excited about getting it

so...something i learned from this past "fasting" is that if you tell yourself not to do soemthing, then you can do it. it's not really that hard. yea, sometimes it will be, but those are the times you have to persevere. so in that case...if you can tell yourself NOT to do something, and succeed, then you can also tell yourself to do something, and succeed in that as well. it's all about sticking with it.

i made this "picture scripture" (lol...ima start calling it that now =]) last night about the fruits of the spirits! i drew this tree and labeled the tree as Spirit and then put all the fruits on the tree like they were growing on it. I thought it was cute lol. i really like my tree too. i colored it green adn brown (like duh!). but the verse is Galations 5:22-23 if you wanna look it up

oh yea! i made this new haiku last night when i was in bed (cuz i couldn't sleep so i was thinking lol) and i think im going to call it Immoral Feeding but i'm not sure yet. but i'll have to type it up and put it on fictionpress and get some peeps to review it! lol

and i got a 95 on my test yesterday, yay! better than i was expecting so that's good...i really should study more....but studying = ennui =] lol. my teacher (mom) will get that one.

the kittens have gotten so big since like 2 days ago!! like omg! they are huge now! well not really huge but alot bigger than they were lol. my babies are growing up

theres this thing on saturday that i might go to at the church, it's supposed to be pretty fun. so yea. it's from 3-8 and we're all just gonna meet at the church and hangg out and play games and stuff. i think i wanna go.

speaking of church, i was showing my license to all my friends yesterday lol. aly, mike, miss amy, kevin (he saw it first). they all thought it was pretty coool. and thomas walked with us when we came home from church. he kinda got on my nerves a little bit tho. oh well. boys lol (no offense baby)

yea. i think thats's it. ill prolly think of more stuff i should have added later, so ill just add it later lol. so...later
