Firsts

Wow. The last two days were quite eventful days to say the least. We went to Fresno Monday then kidnapped my friend and brought him back home with us and returned him Tuesday. We spent the night at Mel's house where she accused me of things I most certainly did not do at her house. We played Rockband, went to Save Mart, had S'mores, and ate. It was lots of fun. Oh and my friend met my siblings. I'm not quite sure how they felt about him, but hopefully they liked him. It was quite an eventful two days, but I won't go into details, those who I want to know know. THANK YOU VERY MUCH for driving!!! It was quite a good way to end the year. Happy New Years everyone!

Too long

YAYYYYYYYYYY! So this weekend I get to hang out with my friend T-pain in Fresno and I am super excited. This week is going by too slow though. I'm excited for tomorrow though because MAR and I are making cookies which will be lots of fun and help the day go by a little quicker. Im so nervous, but more excited, I think I am more nervous about his parents considering the way that I met this guy. lol
Wish me luck!

All I want to do

I finally turned 18!! It really wasn't that exciting, but whatever, I got to hang out with the fam then that weekend with MAR and she got me a purse, we had lots of fun together, just like on Halloween weekend when I had to babysit my twins all weekend and so she came and relieved me of my boredom and helped me to stay sane. THANK YOU!!
Well I really needed to just vent so this was quite helpful, sorry its not a very happy post.

Just enjoy the show... I want my money back

Well I guess I should update even though there is not much to post, but I will try. I think everytime an animal in my family is killed I make a post so I guess today would be a good day to do that since my bird Petey was killed by my dog Bear. His cage was hanging in the tree, his favorite place to be, and I guess my dad took out the bottom because he was going to clean it I guess and Petey fell out the bottom, I don't know if he could fly because he has never been out of his cage, but anyways Bear got to him before anyone else could and that was the end of poor Petey's life. I was sad because I hate Bear already and I liked Petey and it wasn't even a good death for him :(( I cannot wait until the day when I can post that Bear died, I will be a little sad but not too much.
I went to Fresno the other day but still did not get to meet my friend so I was a little bummed, this calls for a road trip I guess. School is okay except I am not doing to well in anthropology because I don't think my teacher likes my posts because I don't show favorism towards evolution.

Life

Wow this year has gone by rather quickly. I cannot believe that its already the middle of September. Life has been interesting. College is so so, I cannot really say I go because I just have online classes but they are interesting I do not really like my anthropology class because it is all about evolution... ughhh its so dumb and they always bash Christianity even worse. Regina leaves this week my feelings are... iffy to say the least. I've been so confused about this boy that I "met" when we talk which is not that often he's so sweet and I love talking to him we have some good laughs. Me and his best friend talk way more than me and him talk which is kinda sad. But me and his best friend are becoming best friends too lol. They are such cool guys and I cannot wait to meet them which hopefully is in God's plan to do. Babysitting is all right except I think they may be teething... oh joy.

Simplicity

I've come to realize how much I love the simple things in life. Late night chit chats with my favorite guys. Laughing hysterically for an hour with my siblings after my brother came home. Laughing hysterically with my best friends taking crazy pictures while playing Rockband. Hearing a favorite song. Staying up late at your friends house and laughing and talking about boys. The smiles and giggles I get from the kids I babysit. Receiving phone calls from special someones. Getting a comment from your best friend. Or simply reading a blog about something exciting happening in a friend or relatives life. It doesn't take much to have a wonderful time. And I thank God for each and every absolutely wonderful simple moment in life.

"Life is not measured by the amount of breaths we take, but the moments that take our breath away."

Late night chit chats

I don't know what to write but I felt like updating so...
My summers going pretty well I have been babysitting everyday which is kind of boring saying that the kids are only 5 months old so they don't really do anything but eat (alot), sleep (a little), poop and pee (also alot), and the little boy vomits alot. Other than that life has been kind of boring. I have read several books in the last week mainly to get over my boredness while babysitting and spent way too much time on facebook lol. But I have nothing to do after babysitting but clean or go on the computer and talk to random people.

Best summer ever

Got a job, a car, and met three really cool people in the randomest way possible. My car has a delrae (cool, rockin, awesome) stereo. The kids are get to babysit are adorable despite their spitting up on me all the time, and my friends are awesome. Tomorrow is the church fair I hope that goes well. I hope Mark comes home soon as well. I also hope I can make a trip to Fresno some time soon =]]. Well not much more to write. Oh by the way congrats on 100 posts Mel I'm making my way there.

Summer Summer Time

So lets see here... My summer has gone by kinda fast kinda slow I don't some days its like wow its already August but other times it just seems like its been long. I am not looking forward to college and I am having problems registering for classes. ughh! Well my parents just came home and said they bought me a car its a Nissan Maxima!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah!!! =]]] I kinda have a job too so its been a good month.

Going to the chapel...

No I'm not getting married, yet! My cousin is on the 2nd, as usual I'm the bridesmaid its hard work being so loved! Its gonna be a busy week though with VBS, rehearsal dinners, bacholerette parties, and the wedding, it will be quite fun though! We got an email from my brother Mark, right now he is in Panama doing nothing as usual. He will hopefully home sometime in the middle of August. This week Sara is coming from Iowa YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm quite excited to see her and Kenny. And hopefully my cousin's wife Elizabeth will have had her baby soon. We'll see. Well just thought I would do a quick update. Hope to talk to u all soon!

Good Times!! Good Times!!

Well lets see this summer has been quite a fun one. I've hung out with Regina almost everday. I think I have spent the night at her house at least once every week this summer! We have so much fun. I need to hang out with Melissa but between road trips and her job i dont know when that will happen hopefully soon!! I have too much to tell her and it cannot be told in blog form. Where just wanted to write a quick update although I didn't say much. We celebrated my gma and gpa thompsons 60th wedding anniversary on saturday, today is the actual anniversary though. I can't imagine spending 60 years with someone, its pretty cool though that they have. I have such a wonderful family and have been truly blessed by them on both sides really. Praise the Lord!

hot sauce and jam

well I've been told that I need to update so here I am updating. Now lets see what can I write about. This past week I spent time at my other families house the Beelers we didnt do much but read but I had fun. I started reading a new series of books about a girl falling in love with a vampire my mom wasn't too excited but oh well its a really cool series. Hi-camp was pretty fun kinda boring doing all the same things every year for three years and melissa wasnt there so that was kinda boring cuz my other friends are kinda duds. I saw my old youth pastor and his wife and kids today. I miss them but our new youth pastor is pretty cool to. I wish I could go to Missouri sometime and visit them. Right now I am the only child because my brother Mark is in Costa Rica for who knows how long he bought a one way ticket and didnt say when he'd be back probably not till sometime in August though. I miss him alot but I cant worry about him because what can I do the only thing I can do for him is pray. Hes said he's having fun though. Well thats about all I have to say if youre wondering about the title hot sauce and jam its because its good together. Whenever i have scrambled eggs i like to put grape jam eggs and hot sauce on toast mmm it sounds really good right now except im out of my hot sauce. well i'll try to write soon if anything exciting happens.

Summertime

Well tomorrow I leave for hi-camp. I'm excited but sad that mel won't be there saying it was so much more fun when she came last year. She helps to make me more outgoing and helps me make new friends and always helps me have a good time and to step out of my comfort zone. I'll miss her. Maybe the hustlers will be there I know that sweatpant boy will be.

I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket

So yesterday was lots of fun and strange at the same time especially when a certain someone thought it necessary to dance in front of the window with no shirt on. I graduate tomorrow excited no; nervous no; sad not really I guess the emotions will hit after graduation. There are those people I will miss like melissa and spencer, ed, aaron, steph, and a certain someone I've had a "crush" on since freshman year. Of course I will definitely miss my freshman buddies too :( I'll get over it... hopefully. Well now I need to find a job and get a car. Congrats to mel who got both within a few weeks. I might be able to get a nanny job but its in motown not sure if I want to go all the way out there but we'll see if I don't find anything else I might have to. Well this will be my last post before I am a high school graduate now I'm kinda excited and sad.

Happiest Place on Earth... not always so happy

So Thursday and Friday was our Grad Nite trip. We started by driving about 6 1/2 hours or so to "Newport Beach" it was basically a lake that had painful sand to walk on. Although it wasnt what we excpected it was lots of fun and made for some great memories. Afterwards we went go kart racing then it was off to "the happiest place on earth". We started off waiting in line for quite some time waiting for the rides to open. First it was Space Mountain a 1 hour wait. I had never been on a roller coaster so it was an extra hour for me to get even more scared I just closed my eyes and held Mels hand. While waiting in line I got a paper cut on my disneyland ticket. After that we went on the Jungle Cruise a cheesy ride that had no line so we got on right away after riding we understood why there was no line. Next was Indiana Jones a ride I was scared to go on due to when I went on it when I was nine I cried and hated it. This time I though it was pretty fun though and this time it was melissa holding my hand with her eyes closed with fear she was gonna fly out. That too was an hour wait. Next it was the Thunder mountain roller coaster but we didnt want to go on that one so mel and i went on the teacups twice where we got our pic taken by a couple of nerds. Then steph finally persuaded us to go on the Thunder mountain train so we went and then she wanted to go again so once again we did that. After it was 5 and it was time to go finally. I had lots of fun and was thankful for my friends for making me go on the rides. On the way home everyone slept except me of course and we watched hairspray and more of The Office thanks to AVG for bringing it. I had lots of fun and was so glad I went. I have eight more days till graduation Im excited but still very sad because I have to leave the kids who are like brothers and sisters to me in some ways. Ive been with them for thirteen years and now I'll probably never see them again. So despite not seeing gini all and all it was a good trip.

Happy Birthday to You

Well just wanted to make a special post on my best friends 18th birthday and also to tell Spencer great job in the play... loved the accent it was wonderful!!!! Well school is almost over and with no money im stuck going to a junior college oh the joys of being poor! oh well maybe someday God will provide for now I will continue to pray and be thankful for all the great things God has given me such as wonderful friends. Well this week was wonderful because certain someones were gone all week ;) which was very nice.

ARGGGHHHHH!!!!!!! No Im not a pirate

So I'm a little angry right now. So for those of you dont know theres a boy I like but then one of my close friends likes him too but doesnt know I like him so thats not my main problem my problem is she just messaged me saying that while she is gone at science camp can I make sure this boy doesnt get a date with someone else to JSB! What do I say to her ugh sure or no because I want to go with him or what totally confused her and quite upset. Oh well Im so glad we are graduating soon and can get done with all this high school drama. I'm pretty much sick of everyone in my class but love the freshmen and the sophmores and some juniors but I know I will miss my class when I leave so I better just enjoy it while I can.

Being an organ donor

Well it has been one month and two days since Walter died I miss him but have gotten over his death. My dads bday is on the 12th hes gonna be the big 50 so we are going to throw him a suprise party. I finally finished my english research paper on being an organ donor, which after the research I found people should be organ donors. and if you are afraid that if you put the pink sticker on your license then the doctors are going to let you die well their not going to because its completely different doctors who keep you alive then the doctors who take your organs so yeah. We have an overload of work these coming weeks ughhhh! Oh well just a few more months till graduation.... June 6 baby!!!!

Tear

This definitely isnt the first post i wanted to do this month, but it seems I have to. It seems that those close to you always die on dreary days like today and today was no exception to that this morning at 9:30 my dog Walter Thompson was tragically run over on accident by my brother. Today is no good day. We know Walter was annoying, but I still loved him and will miss him dearly. I didn''t get to say goodbye. Well I cant write anymore but I hope my next post is a much happier one.
