Change

Here I am at Maranatha. Who would of thought that the change would be so nice?? Its kinda weird though. MBBC is different on some of the rules...and sometimes I feel like I am breaking rules when I am not.

We had orchestra today. I got a position that I really didn't expect at all. It was very nice. Classes are good. I am looking forward to all of them. I think I am going to like History of Civ and Aural Skills the best.

The food here is soooo good. Much better than the other food we had at school. That stuff was GROSS! but don't tell them that...i don't want them mad at me!

Well today mom and dad took off with Nathan to head to BJ. It was sad. I am going to miss being there. But I am super excited about going to MBBC though. I have been looking forward to this for a long time. I am leaving tomorrow afternoon to go to Watertown. Am staying the night with Betsy then getting all settled in on Friday.

I am trying to figure out my major and my minor. I know I want to do something with Music and Early Childhood ed...but i don't know which one will be the major and which one the minor. I guess I'll figure that otut soon enough....

Their Hitched!!!

So I went to the wedding today and it was beautiful! Laura looked so pretty! She and her husband wrote their own vows, which I found very cute. (My dad says that its not cute...cute isn't the right word according to him. So if you're like my dad, you can call it "romantic". Thats the word I used to make him feel better)

Some friends of mine played the actual ceremony. They did a great job, which of course I expected. My family played the reception. That was fun, for the most part. It was kind of hard to play while people were eating food in front of me. Mostly in part because I hadn't really eaten anything all day, and it was 5 o'clock and my stomach was definitly growling.

The wedding ceremony by the way, was perfect. Not to short, and def. not to long. They presented the Gospel well, which was cool, because the bride's extended family isn't saved. Hopefully the Gospel reached one of them. So the happy couple are spending the night in Springfield tonight, and then tomorrow are heading towards Colorado for a week to spend some time at a nice little resort.

By the way, this is off topic, remind me to never again to share my dreams with my little brother. He may end up shooting them down and stomping them to bits. Just thought I'd get that out.

So I leave for Maranatha on Thursday. I am going to spend the night at Betsy's house on Thursday night and while I am there we are going to make a plan of action as to what my major/minor is going to be. I know I want to be in Music, and early childhood ed. The thing we have to figure out is which is going to be my major, and which is going to be my minor. Since both of those things can be either, thats gonna be a hard decision.

Then I am going to go do what I need to do as a Freshman on Friday, and I am going to have the help of my good friend Ruthann and Betsy as well. I am really looking forward to it.

Well folks, I think I am done babbling for now! See ya'll later!

My lovely day

So today was a good day, all except for this morning. My mom came in before 7 and woke me up. Why? I don't know. She had something she wanted me to do before I went babysitting at 8:30. I think she thought the 10 minute job would take me an hour or something. I could have totally slept till 7:30. But none the less she woke me up before 7. (For the record, I haven't slept past 7 since like May. Thats a record for me!)

After I finished what my mom wanted me to do, I went to babysit 2 little girls from my church. I got to their house and as their dad was leaving told me that they were grounded from tv and that we had to find something else to occupy their time. He leaves and the adventure begins.

Enter Max. Whose Max you ask? Well let me tell you about Max. Max is the rat tarrier owned by the family I am babysitting for. Max is very...hyper and even that sounds like to weak a word to descibe this dog. He jumps all over me, which I really didn't mind.

So there I am, and there the kids are and we are trying to find out what to do. So I make this brilliant idea to make a tent...they like the idea and ask how to make one. I was secretly hoping they knew, and when they asked how I quickly tried to figure out how and where to make one. We finally got one up...but it didn't work to well.

So then they decided to play "monster". Guess who was the monster. You guessed right folks...yours truly was the monster! It was fun...for the most part. After we finished "monster" we went out and sat on the sofa. Enter Max. Max jumps up on the sofa and starts licking my lips. That was DISGUSTING! I love dogs, don't get me wrong, but I don't love dogs kissing me, especially since a dogs mouth can have been anywhere! Thats just gross. So I finally untangle his face from mine and get him off the sofa, where he stays off.

Then we proceeded to play hide and go seek upon which the end of that game announced the arrival of daddy. I then came home and slept for a good 2-3 hours. It was great.

Now I sit here and wait for my brother to get off work at Denny's. He's a waiter there and a good one to boot. Tomorrow is his last night there before he heads for school next week. So tomorrow night my best friend and I are going to go over there and give him a hard time!!! =)

Well my computer is about to run outa battery. I should probably head off before it dies completley. Thats not good for your computer to do. So I'll see you all next time here at the Allegro! Thanks for stoppin by!

Life

Have you ever like, loved someone your entire life? I have, and its very hard to get over. I don't know...these past few days have been very blah. The real highlight of my week was going to the State Fair today with my best friend Beth, my lil bro, and my aunt. I got this really bad sunburn on my face. People at church tonight were like "dude, you got some sun". Then I had to break into the story of how I had been to the state fair and I was dumb enough not to put lotion on my face and all that jazz. Fun? No...cause now my face hurts, and everywhere I go people ask me why I am so red! Just call me a dumb blonde, and no, that is in no way, shape, or form me making fun of blondes. I am making fun of myself, thank you very much for asking.

So much to do and so little time in which to do it. I have college to get ready for. I need to work out...boy do I need to work out. Where's Joanna when you need her? She's my workout buddy. She gets me to do things i didn't know possible. Chinese pushups all the way!! =) And we can't forget those awesome crunches!! =) I think I will do that right now...yea...that sounds good. I want to loose weight so bad! I want to be healthy! I want to have no more problems!!! Go me!

HeHe!

I just got back from Music camp and boy was it a blast! I can't believe how much fun I had! It was a great week! I saw so many people that I knew and hadn't seen in a long time. I wish it had lasted longer. But all things must come to an end right? Right! So here I am...back at home and I have nothing to do. I could sleep, but that would throw me off for later, so I think I'll pass on that one. This last week was just so amazing! I don't even know how to describe it!! I hope that I can go back sometime and do it all again. Please keep me in your prayers as a situation has arisen and I need to make a major decision by Tuesday, actually make that Monday night. I would really appreciate it! Thanks!!

OH HAPPY DAY!

Oh happiness! I am so excited! I got a call this morning and guess what! I get to go to Music Camp!! They need me to be a counselor! =) I am so excited! It worked out!!! =) My aunt is going to be here in an hour or less! I am happy about that too! She and I are close, and I am glad that I get to see her. She is going to camp next week too! =) I am going to go now, cause things are getting a lil blurry...but I'll be back later!!

Yay...She's BACK!!

So today is a day on which to be very very excited! My best friend of 14 years has returned from China!! =) Yay! I am so glad that she made it back safe and sound! It sounds like she had a good time while she was there. We have a lot of catching up to do!

Last night one of the guy counselors from camp this summer showed up at my church! I was so excited to see him! It made me have happy good memories of camp! It was great! He is going to go canoeing with my church and I next Saturday.

This next Tuesday I am going to see Comedy of Errors with a lady from my church. Its our summer tradition. Usually mom comes along, but she's going to be at camp. How sad! =( Then the following week I am going to the state fair with my aunt and hopefully my best friend (the one mentioned above) is going to come with us...which reminds me I still need to ask her!

It's all good

So, I heard back from the lady in charge of camp, and she said that they are set for girl counselors. How sad. I guess I won't be going to camp after all. But thats ok. That means that I get to spend more time with Beth, Havi, and Amanda. I got an e-mail from one of my friends at camp today. I really really miss her and everybody else. It was great to hear from her, but it makes me remember camp, and it make me miss it a lot more. Oh well...at least there is e-mail and phones right?

Wait for it...

So I was talking to my friend Karen today, and she told me that Maranatha might need another counselor next week for music camp!! I e-mailed the lady in charge and told her that I would like to help with that if they need me!!! Oh I hope they let me do it! Please let me do it! I have been praying for a way to go, and this could be it! I am praying that it will work out! Oh I really hope it does work out! I want to go so bad! The Lord knows that I want to go, and I have prayed and asked Him to let this work out. It is now in His hands. Whatever His will, so be it! So today is one of those clean my room and get ready to go back to school days. I am ready to go back. I am ready for many reasons and I can't wait to just go!

Ohhhh! Before I forget Beth is returning from China today! HIP HIP HURRAY! I am sooo excited! I can't wait to see her again. Of course if I go to music camp, I leave her behind. But she should understand right? Right! lol. So when I find out whats going to happen I will let you know!!
Its 1:30 in the morning, and my body can't sleep. Why you ask? Well let me tell you. I was really tired and not feeling to well this afternoon, so I decided at 4 o'clock to lay down and take an nice 1/2 hour nap. Thats not what happened though. I ended up taking a 3 1/2 hour nap so now I am awake and can't sleep. Thankfully my body is starting to get tired. I really want to sleep but can't. So I have no idea what I am going to do tomorrow. I really need to start getting stuff ready to go back to school in the fall, but I am lazy and don't feel like doing that. Maybe I'll practice for the wedding...nah. I don't feel like that either. I really need a life, because I don't have one.
