KiNDA LONG, BUT PLEASE READ iT ALL :D

yo. a lot has been going on. nothing that exciting, but a lot of it :D. so friday i went my little buddy's baseball game. it was super cold and i had on sweats and a hoodie (while eating icecream hah). when we were coming home i saw this rent a center van with a mexican man driving it. on the door it said HABLAMOS ESPANOL meaning we speak spanish. oh my. the mexicans are taking over america !!

then yesterday he had TWO baseball games. it was a big change from the day before because i was rocking the shorts and t-shirt. hah yea and of course i was eating hamburgers and hohos !! before we left mom told me to go out to the garage and get a table for the picnic. i couldnt get it open (its wooden, not automatic) so i called audrey out to help. she couldnt unlock it either so she's like "ok, stand back" and like karate kicked it. magically, it opened .. um well half way. so we pushed on it hard to get it open. all i remember is audrey running back and just watching the entire door and track collapse. wow. it was bad. the track came totally off and the door got a whole busted through it. it just layed there. mom thought we died so she comes running out, speachless. wow .. that was scary.

so we got to the game, and told dad. he wasn't too happy, which you can imagine. but they told us it wasnt our fault, and now we actually had a real good reason to get a new door fast because it was just too old. well, at the game i got BURNT like nobody's buisness. i mean farmers tan city. i rolled my sleeves up the best i could, which didnt help because my arms of multi-colored now. total reddness. then the rest if pale white !! hah. and to make it even better i was crossing my legs so i have this huge pure white diagonal strip across my left thigh. and wow it hurts so bad :(. i just came inside from laying outside, trying to even the colors on my body. and the sunlight boiling on an already burnt leg hurt like AHHH !! but watch my "tan" disappear by monday. hah hayley always makes fun of me because i loose a tan in 24 hours. i think it gets rubbed off on my sheets while i sleep. hah.

then today was a great day, too !! first of all, we got donuts in sunday school which is always a treat :D. then audrey and i sang our duet "In Moments Like These". i was so calm before i sang, but once we got up to the podium i got really nervous. i reminded myself that this was for the glory of god, not me. i still was a little SHAKY though. hahaha. but i really enjoyed singing today for the memorial day service. i always do :D

and now we are preparing for a picnicish thing. dads grilling the hamburgers, moms making pasta salad (woo) and the macaroni and cheese. haha i love noodles. who cares if i get two different servings. but what i dont look forward to is all the studying ahead of me for exams this week. atleast today i have to study my notes for history and take ALL the self tests on pasoapaso.com for spanish, and finish my math homework//review that i totally forget from like the middle of the year about system of equations and slope and .. ugh. i really really xxxxxxxx studying, but it just has to be done. i have to keep reminding myself not to slack off these last two weeks before school is done. i also have to finish my study guide for science.

well thats all :)

ITS LIKE KATRINA OUT THERE

just when i thought it was all over .. it starts pouring like nobody's buisness. light rain is ok, but all this heavy stuff gets kind of depressing once you've been stuck in the house for like 2 weeks straight. i got soaking wet just walking from the car to my door. it was CRAZY !! and then of course philip goes and runs around in the driveway like a fool, seeing just how wet he can possibly get. hah.

well school today was pretty awesome. first period we finished up Grease, but nobody watched it because we got our yearbooks today and everybody was busy looking through them and signing eachothers. and as everybody was signing my yearbook and all that fun stuff, it made me relize WOAH SCHOOL IS ALMOST OVER AND THEN ITS HIGHSCHOOL. ah ive been thinking about that more than i really want to lately. but this summer shall be mucho fun !! the never-ending pool party will resume itself, i signed up for cross country, camp woo, and just hanging out getting black !! haha

well ok, so we got our yearbooks. then in lang we went up to the LRC to take those starmath tests, and of course i was the last one done because i take forever second guessing myself on everything :) at lunch there was a partyish thing for all the office workers. we got pizza cookies nachos .. all that good stuff. me and julie had a (pathetic) burping contest. woah .. they def need to carbonate that pop more :) um .. then we launched our spiffy little straw rockets in science. mine was a pathetic excuse for a rocket of anysort. it had wings :)

well thats today. woo woo comment me yo

Aw, Poor LeBrony-Boy

Aw, doesn't he look sad ?? :D

The Cavs lost. Go figure. They make it to the play-offs once in a blue moon, and loose it two days after they so could have won it at home had not been for #1. Mr. "Gimme The Ball, I'll Win It" LeBron, #2. Easy missed free-throws (these guys get waaaaaay too much money to be messing up on the easiest part of the game) #3. Sloppiness #4. Like 3 turnovers in a minute resulting in 3 point jumper #5. A million other reasons I don't feel like mentioning.
Now I love the Cavs. Everyone on that team is incredibly awesome. But LeBron, eh ..

This man .. ah. IDK but I don't like him. I mean yes, I did get a free Nike duffle bag because of his "generosity" (or more like publicity ??) and he is a super awesome basketball player. But this dude has some serious cockiness problems. His Myspace, and yes Jimmy it is so him, is full of people telling him he is the King and the Chosen One (total stupidity .. "oh, he's the chosen one .. ooooh" give me a break). And then he goes around telling all these little kids, "Stay in school" when he's the one who didn't even go to college before going into the NBA.

Im Alive !!

I have been failing lately at keeping you all updated on my life. One week later though, I have not much to brag about. Some things that stick out are : Monday was the track championship. The rain and wind made it miserable and freezing. I just sat on the bleachers with my hoodie and warm-up on, both hoods up, face buried in my clothes, rocking back and forth. Hah. I must of looked cool. My 4x4 relay team for #5 in the city. It's a little disappointing. I mean, every single regular meet was like perfect weather. But when it came down to the most important meet, the Championships, it was awful. What else happend .. ?? Tuesday was the banquet, where it yet again rained. We had our "picnic" inside the Ellet Community Center. We only got half of the hall because I think there was either a karate class or some polka dance lessons happening. The food was awesome. Ah. Mrs. Firtha recognized everyone on the team, but of course she talked on and on and bout some people and like nothing about others. First, she thought I ran the 800, then she asked if I was a returning eighth grader from last year. Um, yes !! Ah :( Wedesday was the booooring Academic All-Stars thing at Kenmore. Mom got lost and had to ask the icecream man for directions.

Then today was the Ellet parade//festivalish thing. Mom woke us up waaay to early. Philip looked so cute w// his little bucket of candy. Hah. We sat out in the cold, waiting for it to start. Audrey, Mom, and I ran over to Eastgate plaza to buy coffee and hot chocolate. Oh man. Best stuff of my life. The little baseball and softball players. I saw Dr. Green !! :D I love that man, he's too cool. Then I went over to Hayley's and out of pure boredomness we sat at her table, cutting out random//funny//retarded pictures out of magazines and gluing them to construction paper. Hah.

Woo, now it's time for pizza so goodbye. And I will soooo post sooner again :D

IT'S TOO EARLY

I was sooo tired last night that I went fell asleep on the Brown Chair in the living room. I was waiting up for Audrey, but I was just soooo tired that I went to bed at 11. I do remember like waking up and seeing Audrey in her beautiful dress taking her hair down infront of her dresser. I said, "Hello," and went back to bed. LOL. Right now it's 9:30 in the morning and she's still sleeping like a baby so I haven't had the chance to ask her how the night was.

But my night was great. First of all, we only ran 3/4 of a mile yesterday. Hah. Coach Jackson wanted us to take it easy that day, since he practically killed us on Thursday. So, after practice I came home and got ready for the All Daughter's Banquet. I had absolutely NOTHING to wear so just by chance when I went downstairs I saw Audrey's Easter dress from three years ago on a hanger. I was so desperate that I wore it. I felt kind of uncomfortable in it all night though. LOL. I think my favorite part was the chocolate fountain. Oooooh man, I think I went up there like a million times. Donna is officially the best caterer ever. Her chicken and those potatoes are sooo good. I gained like 5 pounds just by eating so much. Then the concert was really good too. The lady, Jan Markowitz, was hilarious. She had this puppet thing that just made the whole audience crack up. I looked over at Katie and her friends and they were literally in tears from laughing so hard. She sang a lot of good songs, too. :D

Well today is Saturday and as of right now I don't know of one thing that I'm going to be doing for sure. I have a couple of ideas, but eh the day is still young. Hopefully I will find SOMETHING.

WELL WOAH HELLO :D

Ok Ty, this is long, but read the whole thing. I know how you only read the last paragraph :D

My weekend was super grand. After school on Friday I finished getting packed && all that jazz. I took a shower and just threw on some sweats. Then we went to church, piled in the van, and set off for Kelley's Island. Woah .. we seriously sang aaaall the way there. Hah. Ok, so then we got to the ferry dock and jumped on the boat. Ty taught me this super fun hand clappish thing. Woo. We got up to Camp and it was absolutly freezing. I'm so used to being up there with like the scorching sun beating down on your neck and running around in tank tops and shorts. Nope. I was in a hoodie shaking uncontrollably. Hah. I think I have some sort of condition because I am seriously always cold. It's nuts.

After we got our t-shirts we headed over to the bon-fire. LOL. We made something close to s'mores. The marshmellows were all stuck together and sticky and they had chocolate frosting instead of Hershey candy bars. I'm like psh .. a s'more just isn't a s'more without a big slab of Hershey's. Needless to say, though, I ate it anyways :D

Saturday morning we woke up at like 6:30, went to breakfast at 7:00, and started working at around 8:30ish. Me and my crew tackled the pool. The gross, nasty, bacteria infected, reptile infested, sloppy, scummy, murky, pool. At first we started out "Ew !! Ew !! This is soooo nasty !!" but by the end of the day we were literally playing in that stuff. I mean, Audrey and I were sticking our hands in it and pulling out buckets and who-knows-what. We found salamanders, frogs, mice, snakes, skeletons, tadpoles .. you name it, we saw it. The grosses thing though that I saw was a dead frog with a stick through it's head. I was just numb to everything else after that.

&& now here's a short little thing on today :
School: boring as always
Practice : Went up to Ellet. Pretty easyish until the end. I ran 1.5 miles for my warm up. Then we ran perimeters because the Ellet girl's had a meet against Hoban. Those were pretty bad. After that we did some sprinting excersises. Out last meet is Wednesday so I'm trying to push myself.

PROCRASTINATION !!

I guess this is some sort of procrastination. Like I've been saying to myself, "Ah, I'll post soon." Well, I finally am.

So, yesterday was the third meet. Everyone did super awesome. Well, except the 4x4 relay team !! We ended up in last place in the city :'(. Two of the girls had never ran it before so I mean, yea I understand that. Julie hurt her leg really bad so she couldn't run. I was the first person and had a bad hand-off. I'm pretty happy with how I did though. I got 1:15, the same as last week. Oh well, no biggie. We'll just have to do that much better next week :)

Today was May Festival practice. HAHA .. I sat next to Libby and Hallie and got like evil glares from people because they were making me laugh so hard. The girl's infront of us were taking up like the entire benchish thing so I kept accidently kicking them and they would turn around and be like "What choo doing ?? Quit kickin' me !!" The director man who's name is Basil kept having to adjust his toupe, Mrs. Laktash was getting way too into the clapping in our gospelish song, the kid behind Libby kept spraying on her and she turns around and yells "ARE YOU SPITTING ON ME ?!?!".

Haha this is funny. Fill in the blanks ..

Will you ___verb___ my ___noun___.

Will you run my tredmill ??
Will you color my rainbow ??
Will you mash my potatoes ??
Will you bury my cat ??

Haha .. this amused me all lunch.
