Sometimes life can really suck. So far this year school has been really. And my dad is being weird. My brother and sisters and annoying. Swimming is hard. And I’m only two weeks into school. About 34 left to go. I know I sound really whiney and annoying right now but that’s how I feel.
And by the way, why is everyone leaving blogger?! Star said she was done. Griffinrider said she would be back in august and she still hasn’t come back. Does blogger slowly but surely drive you into insanity? I’m kidding but really, what’s going on?! I’ll talk to everybody later. Bye.

Hmmm... I didn't realize how long it had been since I last posted. And I've kinda run out of ideas sooooo I thought I might put up a list of my ten favorite songs and see what you guys think.

1. All Around Me-Flyleaf
2. Viva la Vida-Coldplay
3. Stacy's Mom-Fountains of Wayne
4. Send Me On My Way-Rusted Root
5. Time Warp-Rocky Horror Picture Show
6. I Will Follow You Into The Dark-Death Cab For Cutie
7. Leisure Suite-Feist
8. Guilty Pleasure-Cobra Starship
9. Check Yes Juilet-We The Kings
10. Drive My Car-Beatles

Well that's it folks! Do you guys like any of those? I do happen to have very strange taste in music. But hey, it's all about what you like not what everyone else likes.

Have a swell day!

It has been a while. Sorry. At this very moment I am still anxiously awaiting my copy of Breaking Dawn. I decided to pre-order but now I’m wondering if that was such a great idea. I hope that it will arrive in the mail by Thursday. So to all of you out there that have already gotten your copy and zoomed through it in just a few hours, please don’t give anything away. And I am also aware that it doesn’t come out until August 4^th everywhere outside of the USA.

Now on to other things. I am really starting to freak out about school. Next year’s schedule is looking busier and busier. I have all top classes so, no doubt, tons of homework. Two hours of swimming every day except Sundays. Helping with my siblings. Hopefully adding a job into the mix. And possibly a social life, if there’s time. Ahhhh. Can you say STRESSING OUT!

Well, this isn’t exactly the post I planned to write but oh well. What’s going on with everyone else? I promise that my next post will not be so centered around me. Talk to you later. Bye.

Wow. It has been soooo long since I was on last. Where is everyone?! I used to get more comments and now I have like five. hmmm. A little bit sad. I am currently doing swim camp from 7-9 in the morning and my muscles ache. I need to get in shape.

Is anyone else as excited as I am about Breaking Dawn almost being released?! I can't wait! This has been a good summer for reading. I have read so many books that I wanted to in the school year but didn't have time for.

I'm am not ready to go back to school. Summer is just too great. Next year I have a super full course load. Not excited about that.

I'm lonely, so just pop in any time and leave me a comment. It will make me smile big!

Have a swell day!

Well I'm home from camp! But unfortunately I came home to an unexpected disaster-I live in Cedar Rapids, IA. And for anyone who doesn't know why that's a big deal, try watching the news sometimes. I am so glad that my house is okay but so many others are not. We only have 50% of our usual amount of water and all bridges over the river except one are closed. It's pretty much total chaos here. So sorry I can't really blog about camp right now but I promise I will in the upcoming days and weeks. I'll talk to you guys later.
Have a swell day!

Well, today we are having a birthday party for my sister Avarie. She will be turning one on June 12th. She is such a happy little girl most of the time. Always has a smile on her face. Sometimes I wish I could go back to the age of one when everything was so simple. No major concerns or decisions. When you're a baby you don't know all of the bad things that could happen tomorrow, you just know that that banana over there looks pretty tasty. Hmmm, if only.

On another completely different note, tomorrow I leave for french camp. Yeah! So this means that I won't be here for quite sometime. After camp I go to my mom's house so my online time will be limited for aproximatly 5 weeks. Sorry, I know you'll all miss me. Just kidding. See you guys later. Bye.

Fashion. It's the best and worst thing to happen all at the same time. In some ways, fashion is an amazing way to share what you want to be and who you are. It shows our unique personalities and views. But on the other hand, fashion is something that every one wants to do. Or to restate that, we want to be cool and fit in. To be like all the 'cool' people that were creative in the first place. This fact completely takes the originality out of 'fashion' and being your self, showing the world who YOU are. Not your neighbor or best friend. What do you guys think?
Have a swell day!
