going away...
i'm going up north to the lake today at like... 2ish until late tomorrow night. should be home around 11ish. jenna is coming with me. piano went ok yesterday and pit was really good. it was good to see everyone and to talk to jessie. :) we'll have to wear our shirts inside out like that again. ok..and it's like this... pmac d'nab. hahahahahaha. no one else will get it. ha!!!!! anyway.. talk to you guys when i get back! maybe i'll have a tan from the beach!!! HA! RIGHT! oh well. lots of love. :)

i had a great day yesterday. one of the most fun days of summer. maybe the most fun even. ha! i went to the beach with kevin, sarah and tony. we climed the dunes and stayed till sunset, and the water was just the perfect temperature for swimming. thanks guys for a great.. time :)

:)
well things are going to be ok i guess. i added nick and matt to the prayer lists at church today after i sat there and cried through parts of the service. i'm going to the beach today! yay! with kevin, sarah and tony. it should be quite fun. well kids i've gotta go fold laundry and stuff. keep praying for nick and matt and don't give up hope yet. also.. happy birthday to taryn. :)

hey guys... most of you probably already know the story about nick vandyke so i'm not going to reiterate what jessie and jessi already wrote and what you've already heard. however, i do want to personally ask everyone to pray for him. i wasn't really close with him but i was in slc with him last year and i do know he is a sweet kid and he is loved by alot of people. so if you get the chance please add him to your prayer chains at church or pray for him on your own. also keep matt in your prayers. these are two wonderful guys. please help them out by praying for both of them.

it's back...
yeah.. it's back now. i hate it. i think i know how to make it go away but i'll need alot of help. alot. sorry i'm so vague. but if you know me well enough.. you'll know what i'm talking about.. i think. hmmm..

eh..
summer doesn\'t feel like summer. i\'ve been so busy with all this piano, flute, drumline stuff.. i haven\'t had time to have FUN! i have to practice each thing everyday. and mom makes it feel like a chore.. she rags on me to practice like i\'m not going to or something. i will..but i hate her making it feel like work. i just need to get out of the house for a while. and spend some time with my friends. i dunno... i did some venting to taryn today...she\'s such a sweetie. thanks taryn for listining to me

volleyballchix8: i just needed someone to talk to :-)
put me t0gether: Well talk away, is something wrong?
volleyballchix8: i guess.. i don\'t know
put me t0gether: Well what is it honey?

put me t0gether: :-(
volleyballchix8: and i just get tired of it because my mom makes it feel like a chore
volleyballchix8: and it shouldn\'t be
put me t0gether: it should be fun...
volleyballchix8: it should be..but it\'s not...and all she does is rag on me to practice and do this right
put me t0gether: if you ever wanna get away from stuff and take your mind off things, you can always come here and we can have a \"girls night\" that always makes ME feel better for a little bit, so you never know.
volleyballchix8: that sounds wonderful
put me t0gether: You just say the words and I\'ll make plans.
put me t0gether: We can rent movies and eat junk food and whatnot. It\'d be fun.
volleyballchix8: aw...thank you so much!

volleyballchix8: aw.. what a good friend :-)
put me t0gether: :-) why thank you, I\'m just doing what I know you\'d do for me.
volleyballchix8: aww..
volleyballchix8: like i want to tell my mom... but i\'m afraid she\'ll get mad and yell and not let me do anything
put me t0gether: yeah, sometimes it\'s actually GOOD to keep something in
volleyballchix8: mmhm..but i can\'t spend the whole summer like this
put me t0gether: yeah.... when the time comes you\'ll know honey

ugh.. i don\'t know.. i just want to go away for a day. just one day. one whole day where i don\'t have to worry about practicing or mom or anything. just pure fun.

wow.. i had a good weekend. angie didn't win miss michigan :( oh well..now she gets to go to the music college she was accepted to in new york city and sing. i guess thats not so bad. heh... anyway.. gosh.. it's been a while...but i really don't have anything to say! oh well. later

it's a circus in this house!
oh my gosh! there are so many crazy people running about my house. and there's more coming tomorrow. like, 4 more. and 5 came yesterday. i'm going to go crazy!! we're going horse back riding today i guess. i wouldn't ask. i think it'll be peaceful actually. but anywho... they are calling my name upstairs...and i need to get in the shower if theirs any hot water left. oh well... later kids. :)

missing you
i miss alot of people. i miss not being at school and seeing everyone and being crazy. i haven't had the chance to tell people i miss them or talk to them or see them. ahhhh... i hate this. someone just come and see me. i miss you guys!!!!

blah blah
gosh i'm tired. the weekend i guess you could say was boring, but i did get a chance to lay on grandpas beach and attempt to get a tan. yesterday stef and i ran around for the afternoon/early evening. we woke sean up! ha! it was fun. went "swimming", went to gunnies, and to alpine for shopping pourpouses. fun times. anyway... i think i'm tired because of that allergy medicine i took this morning that always makes me drowsy. oh well. my first piano lesson is today. and pit practice! yeehaw.
