Dark Hair for Everyone!

Well we all (Jacob, Christian, Carly and Me) kind of got our hair dyed dark! It's not black, it's a really dark brown in fact. Carly however got hers honeybrown. It has red in it though so she is going to re-dye it dark brown. About as dark as mine! You can totally tell a difference with mine, that's for sure!(: But I wanted to dye my hair for once and me and Carly were a little dumb at first and didn't mix what we were supposed to so it didn't turn out right, so then we used the darker stuff. Oh well, I think it looks nice!

Happy Halloween!

Happy actual 31st halloween everyone! I hope you had fun Trick or Treating last night! I know we did. Jacob went to the trunk or treat and went around in his Lovely costume, and stephen and me handed out candy and the two younger boys also went trunk or treating around and carly and my parents walked around. Jacob got hardly anything cause parents gave him their little bits. Ha ha! But it was an eventful night last night. But Happy Halloween everyone!

Jacob just barely got over his sickness but still has a little bit of a cough, Jackson still has a bit of a cough, I have a heck of a cough and an upset stomach, Carly is getting sick right now and doesn't feel good, Stephen is safe (for now), Christian got over his a while ago his was mostly a cough but it's gone now. My mom is Safe also, but my dad has bronchitis. Phew! That's a crazy house right there. And it stinks! We are all getting better thank goodness but it's been a rough week or two weeks. HA!

It's all gone!!

The other day I saw someone I know and I loved her hair. It was a short A-line. And it inspired my to get one. Crazy right? Well of course I was scared to chop off all my LONG hair! And who would want to chop it all off? I mean come on! But in the end I am so glad I did because I love my new hairstyle. I hope you do too! Tell me what ya think!

Busy, busy, busy!

So this summer has been crazy busy for me. The first week of June I had Pine Basin training. Then the next three weeks after that I had Pine Basin. Then I had a week off for fourth of July. And then I have Pine Basin this week. And then the next week I have a church Trek. And then the next week after that I am going to Utah probably to visit my friend for a week and go to my cousins wedding (reception). And then that weekend my aunt and uncle might come up for a couple of days. Then I have girlscamp that week. and then I think I MIGHT have two weeks of my own before school starts. This summer has been hectic for me!! But it's been buckets and buckets of fun for sure! (:

Pine Basin

This past week at Pine Basin Summer Camp was just wonderful. Me and Vanessa, on the far right, are so close!(: we are besties. This is a picture on our last day. Me, Nicole, and Vanessa! I had a blast and i am going up again this week. I can not wait! Vannessa's nickname by the way is Granny because she talks like the old whipper-snapper from the t.v show "The Beverly Hillbillies." It's super funny!

Baked Goods!

Well to earn some money i would like to do something farely easy that i enjoy. Baking! And so i thought if i went around my neighborhood, to people i know preferrably, i could sell different treats. I thought that i sold 10 cookies, sugar or chocolate chip, for $2. And then i would sell 10 rice krispies or 10 brownies for $3. And then for 12 cinnamon rolls i would sell them for $5. I think it would be fun and i MIGHT earn a little money. I need some extra money for my camp thing this summer. And i cant think of any other way to earn money. Well besides working and if i work around my house i barely get any money at all. It would take quite a while to get a LITTLE stash. My mom suggested offering to weed peoples lawns/gardens and what not. I prefer not. If im gonna earn a little money i would prefer doing it a fun way. So what are your thoughts on this? Should i sell baked goods? Are the prices okay? Or should i offer to work for them? I just dont know right now.

Lava Hot Springs

Today we went to Lava Hot Springs with honor society, journalism, and student council. Well i am in honor society! So i got to go. And it was a blast! We went on the nice buses, not the crummy yellow school buses. And then we watched The Blind Side which i love very much, when we got there we went in got changed and put our stuff on the grass outside and jumped in the water! If you have ever been to Lava Hot Springs you will know that there is 3 platforms. the third one is a little bit high! Alright i lied it's very high! But i went with a friend and we screamed together while dropping into the warm water. Haha! It was the best(: and only 1 1/2 days left of school! CRAZY :s Also with the platform thing i dont know if you can tell but its the tall blue and white things. and it's the top one. and it is alot higher when you are there or definately on it!

Journal Keeping

I have learned today in my young womens class about journal keeping. It is very important that you do keep a journal. In fact, although i didnt know this, it is a sin if you dont write in your journal and you should go and repent right away. It's obviously super important to keep a "Book of Remembrance" as they put it in the scriptures. So my goal is to try and write in it everyday whether it is half a page one page or even two pages. But i will do it, and follow the Lord!

Lagoon baby!

So next Saturday May 1st my choir group is going to go to Utah and perform at a festival! Its very exciting. We are going to leave the school around maybe 4:30 or 5:00 in the morning and head for Utah. Then we are going to go to the festival which im not quite sure the time. But then on top of that we are going to go to lagoon for the rest of the day. It will be a very fun and exciting time! And i cant wait.(:

Track is going very well. Im really happy i am doing it. I have been pushing myself very hard and then getting in better shape. I hope that soon i will be able to hold up a steady pace without huffing and puffing. It's super fun. We had our first track meet last thursday which was a great time. I love my school!(: Also we have another track meet this Thursday at our field in Thunder Stadium. It's great. I am doing the 100 and 200 sprints. We have a great team and everyone on it is so talented and great!

So this summer when it starts i will be going and being a CIT at Pine Basin hopefully. It's a great camp and i love the councilors and everyone else. They are so nice and talented. I love the schedule we are on. It's wonderful.(:

****School ends in 41 days but 29 school days****

Track season!

I am doing Track in my school this year. It's a lot of fun. We do our warmup excerises which are --5 minute jog, sprints, tippy toes, heels, sides of your feet, and monster walks across the gym, then stretches and crunches, push-ups, and just usual stuff like that-- then we either do a 2 1/2 mile jog or sprints for 25 minutes. We have done stair laps too for about 30 minutes. Its a bunch of fun! And it will really get me in shape. We have our first track meet in i think 1 1/2 weeks. Although its super fun i am super sore. But this will be a great experience.

CPR

Well i am now certified to give CPR to others according to the young women. I passed it off tonight. It's very interesting. Yeah for people you give them 30 pushes on their chest and then breathe in their mouth twice. For babies you kind of push up on their back 5 times and then move to the front and push on their chest with your two fingers 5 times. Kinda interesting!

Cell Phone

So i have been talking to my mother about getting a cell phone. Because i am basically the only person who doesn't have one. ): But she said that maybe we could look deeper into it if i'm out of dept. Sadly i owe her $89 and my daddy-o $37. How i ever got into that much dept i don't know. All i know is that it came little by little and then it caught up with me. So im wondering if any of you need a baby-sitter Please! I would very much appreciate it. And the worst part of all is that i only have $17.20 at the moment. It's gonna be a while but i know that if i work around the house ALOT! and baby sit for you wonderful people then maybe i can get one before school is out at least. I would like to get everyone's # while we are still in contact. So please call. (: I love children and i would love to baby sit your kids for maybe 10 hours. :]]

Fitness

So i am thinking that for everyday i will do the following since i am quite lazy and im not in shape whatsoever. So for everyday i will do these activites:

  • Run/jog a mile (if not more)
  • do 5 push-ups (see how wimpy i am, but with these i will be going up 5 every week)
  • do 30 curl-ups/pull-ups
  • 15 sprints

I think that if i do this every day that i will be a little bit more in shape, and once this seems to get pretty easy for me i will move up. Im ready for a challenge!

Dress Up

So my friend Mckaye suggested this website. And it is totally awsome! At first i didnt see what was so "cool" about it and then BAM i tried it and it was amazing. It's this website where you fill in what type of clothes you like, sorta like romantic, trendy, classic all of those. And it gives you stuff you might like and they are your size. Mckaye says that if you are a member of it they give you free shipping also. The stuff is kinda pricey. But the clothes are designer clothes. It is a really cool website. Check it out.

Wings

Wings by Aprilynne Pike:
This is a great book! I loved it. I think i mostly
enjoyed this book because i love fantasy's. It's
about a girl who doesnt know she is a fairy
until she grows wings one day. And she still is
shocked that she is. She doesnt want to believe it.
I liked this book very much.
"When a plant blooms out of fifteen year old Laurel's
back, it leads her to discover the fact that she is a fairy
and she has a crucial role to play in keeping the world from the
encroaching enemy trolls."

Tryouts

Well i had tryouts for my play yesterday. I think i did fairly well considering last year i did it with my brother stephen. I did it all by myself this year. And i remembered all of my lines. Yay! People said i did really well. Let's hope i make callbacks! (:
