Okay okay..

Okay I'm not very good at keeping up on posting!! But track has been keeping me extremely busy right now and there hasn't been all too much excitement to blog about.



I'm went to a district meet two weeks ago to compete in a 4 x 100, 100, and long jump. Longjump I'm still struggling with due to a sprained back but I managed and placed 7th out of 16 girls- jumping a 13 ft 10 1/4 inch jump.



This past friday I went to another invitational to compete in the 4 x 100, 100 dash, 100 meter hurdles, and longjump. Full schedule causes a very tired me! Anyways, despite not placing the best at this meet, I managed to get a new personal best time in hurdles and long jump, breaking 14 ft this time! Wooo!

This weekend is jam packed with babysitting for some family friends, but it's nice to have some money. Maybe I should get a job soon? Haha.

Anyways. I'm running out the door in ten minutes so I just thought I'd put up a quick update. I'll post pictures soon I promise!

The Notebook

I was sitting watching The Notebook, a wonderful movie that I can't seem to get enough of, when I decided I may as well blog and get something productive done while sitting on my butt!

I'm currently in the process of moving into my own room since my older brother moved out a few weeks ago. While I was quite looking forward to being able to have some space to myself, the process of doing so is rather tiring! I'm close to being done now- just a few more things to go through in my old room I shared with my sister and I'll be done!

During this tiring excercise of moving piles of pure junk around and deciding what to keep and what to throw away, I found some memerable notebooks in my closet. For one I discovered I have far too many for any person, but the more I flipped through them the happier I was that I had kept them. I was able to laugh at my tragic handwriting of the 5th grade and my misspelling of the word 'which'. I was able to read over stories I had written pretending that I was in the world of Harry Potter(my obsession from about 2nd grade through 7th).

All in all when you brush the dust off the past it can actually be rather rewarding. :)

I have some pictures to show too!!

A sneak peak at my new bedroom. :]

And on a very high note- my climax of the day...

*drumroll here*

I made varsity for our track team! So far all that's been announced is our 4 x 100 relay team, but the three girls I'm running it with I already have an amazing bond with and we've only been in track for three weeks! I'm absolutely thrilled.

Been awhile...

So I'm making an all new resolution to get in a habit of writing on this occasionally. Though I did in the past and look how it followed through. Oops?

After an exciting past few weeks I decided that I'd update!

For one I'll ask for prayers for a little boy by the name of Bryson. He recently underwent surgery to correct his feet and there were some slight complications. He's finally home and doing better but the poor boy still needs prayers to help him cope with his pain. And prayers that he will be able to walk!

Our school basketball team went to playoffs once again this year and we got farther then my school has ever gotten before, actually playing for the state title tonight. We lost-- but hey, second in state is great! There was a big fight in the opposing school's crowd which led to a ten minute delay in the last half of the game. Half of their students and cheer leaders got escorted out and we had to be escorted out to avoid their students trying to hurt us.

I turned 16 a little less than a month ago. It's a little strange. Failed my drivers test, but hey. Most people seem to. I'll retake it eventually. :]

Anyways. Long day and it's late. I'm exhausted so I think I'll go curl up in my new bedroom. (I'll post pictures soon!!)

Oops?

You think I'd be inspired by my blogger of a mother to blog more. It's been a long long while since my fingers have hit this keyboard. Visit her blog here.

Well it's the summer before my sophmore year in highschool. And so far everything has been amazing. I spent yesterday with some friends hot tubbing and then watching a movie. Which ended as me falling asleep on the floor and getting woken up by my phone vibrating next to my ear. Not all that fun. :P

I never did post that kick off blog did I? Well it's currently 9:08 at night and I have nothing better to do! I already cleaned my room today, and it took five hours. (It was a bit messy...)

Well lets see. The best way I can think to kick this off is with some pictures.

My crazy family minus a few and plus a couple cousins. :]

This would be my mother and I. Even if she comes of mature in her blog this picture shows her real side. Haha. I have an even better one of her wearing goggles I'll make sure to post later. ;)

Photobucket

My friend. Who's a boy. As my father likes to call him.

Photobucket

My best friend and I.


Wowwww. My blogs must look like weak sauce when compared to my mothers. They're like a little poem compared to her novels.

Hopefully I'll catch onto her blogging-ness someday and I can live up to what I have to help her with. Oh wait shhh she blogs all on her own.

Just teasing. She's actually become a much more independent blogger, I've only had to help her once in the past few months!

=O

Irked

Irked...I love that word, though I'm not exactly positive why I do. Well, science has been making that word run through my head constantly lately- only to learn today that we basically spent an hour and a half for nothing.

Yes, I realize I never had my official kick of post- and I'm not exactly sure there ever WILL be an urge to write a long, detailed, informative, post. So if there is, Yay me! And of course, if not, oh well. :)

Wow

So. . . .I suppose my very first blog entry should be extravagent and fun, but due to the fact that it's late, it won't be exactly that. I suppose the big kick off post shall be tomorrow- (or whenever I feel the big urge to have my big 'kick-off' post. :])

Life is pretty crazy for me right now. Juggling family, friends, and school doesn't make a very balanced teeter-totter, but it's pretty settled currently. I have amazing friends who help me through anything and everything and a wonderful family, who I don't even think could be better.
