i did something very dumb. i wanted cheese so badly, that i had some. and now, i suffer. that and the possibility that i may be getting a stomach flu from my mom.... i dont know if its one or the other or both. but for now- i will blame it entirely on the cheese. it is so painful... it stinks cuz i wont be able to eat for 24hrs if it is cheese. literally. no lie.
im going to bed to sleep away the pain...

Time and Day
so beautiful:
today i printed two mae songs that i found online. im so excited! it took forever to find them. i have three total: we're so far away, prologue, and the sun and the moon. the last two are the ones i found this morning. i can play them, though there are a few areas that need smoothing. i was so stoked!!! my excitement level was intense. i think i could have sat at the piano all day today.
we just finished watching singin' in the rain. that movie is epic!! its so amazing to think that back then actors and actresses werent just actors and actresses. they could sing and dance(ballet, jazz, swing, tap, ballroom)... they had to! a lot of them were comedians as well as regular acting. maybe they still do now... the difference, i think, is that most actor (esses) learn those sort of things when they have to do a movie that requires it. then, it was just the thing to do.
geeze, every time i go out surfing, i get bruises. i dont understand how. mostly on my hip bones and knees. i dont force my weight with all my strength on the board... i just have no idea...
tomorrow, i think that we will be getting ready for the kids to come. you know, grocery shopping, cleaning, arranging.... all the normal stuff you do when company comes.

Title
hello,
i havent done much lately. ive just been home doing school... all that good stuff.
its weird.... lately, im almost excited to go to bed. i dont know why. i even almost like going to bed as soon as i deem it not tooooo early. ive never gone to bed before nine. still, for some strange reason i like going to bed right now. it can be a little hard in the mornings to get up. however, i get up because i know i should and mom my prefers me to get up somewhat early. getting up early, though, ensures that ill be tired sooner! yesss=) i dont know why i am so retarded.
i really have nothing to talk about.
though, soon julia, kyle, devin, mackenzie and emily will be here! im excited for that. it is so fun to be all together again. with a few additions=) its fun to look back on all the times we had when we were all little kids. the crazy things we did, the things we said, the places we went, embarassing moments we shared. kyle, i think, is almost clueless of the life we had before the kids moved to utah. we tell stories all the time and he sits there in a... i almost cant describe his facial expression. he does laugh a lot though.
well, since i am just rambling i will get off before i get too boring.

Strawberry Festival
Im making up for my not posting today.
the strawberry festival was fun. i think we got there at around noon. haha! the first thing mom wanted to do was eat=P so we got four funnel cakes and ate them on the lawn across from the stand where we bought them. i have to say, i love funnel cake. however, too much makes me feel sick. to help that, i just had a bite of everyone elses. that way no one got sick! =) we spent the rest of the time walking around. i didnt get anything at the festival itself, but i did go into one of the shops in a.g. and got something there: two shells and a hankie. yup. i think they are pretty amazing. Noelle got her face painted, mom got a hat, dean got a bottle of wine, carter got a rubber band gun, and jake got a soda... thats all i think. i cant remember if grandma got anything. besides the funnel cake.
i saw a bunch of people i knew there! katie, two of the doody kids and mr doody, joanna, adam d. and his sister, sydney, a couple from church, and like three or four other people from the grace bible youth group that i dont remember their names. sad.
overall, it was a great time! i love those festivals...
Drive In:
on sunday we went to the drive in with the ways. we saw indiana jones and ironman. i think ironman was the better of the two. though neither really were all that great. indiana jones turned into this alien movie! psh. i did fall asleep during ironman.... so i dont even know how it ended. zoei, riss, noelle, and i fell asleep during ironman. on the floor, outside, in the cold. we had blankets but it was still cold. everyone else stayed in the cars. mr and mrs way had zachary quarantined in the car... he was sick=(
while i was laying outside, right before i fell asleep i looked up, and i could see the clouds moving. it was amazing!! they were moving so fast! there were pretty much only clouds and a few faint stars, then it was clear! it was amazing... i wish i could fall asleep to that every night.
Pismo:
yesterday we went to pismo with grandma... it was sad, mom had a lot to do at home as well as dean. soo, they were going to stay home and we were going to have fun. we loaded up the burban abd headed towards pismo. as soon as we turned the corner on wadsworth i saw the anders car. once i found a spot ( which took a while) and parked, i called them up. carrisa told us where they were and we met up. jake and i ran over to panchos to get noelle, carter, and him a wetsuit. even though the waves werent all that great i went out surfing. i caught a couple... it was way too flat. i had fun though! oOokay... i was out there and i am walking right... right, and i step on something very squishy and slimey. i screamed so badly and jumped up on my board. (the board was backwards by the way). for some reason, when i really wanted to stay on the board i kept almost falling off (i couldnt find my blance while i was in a panic). all the while i was screaming. after that, i was done. i got out and spent the rest of the time out of the water. carrisa, nathan and i went up to the pier for a while. i got a splinter in my heel. i go up on the pier all the time without shoes after ive been surfing! i guess that was just a lucky day. i had to get it out... i sat down and prolly looked really dumb, and got it out. soon after that we left.
as soon as i got home, dean asked me to trim the bushes out front. i really dont mind doing that! its not so bad. i get to be a perfectionist. its great. i still have a few more i need to do. i really wanted to finish them today... but... my hands are so sore and stiff that mom said i should wait a few days. it is pretty bad. i cant grip or squeeze anything... oh well. we have these hand clippers that are prolly older than i am... so they were hard to use... hopefully we get a new pair. hey! maybe thats what ill get dean for fathers day!
Today:
grandma just left and mom and dean went to the gym together.
i made coffee and am really enjoying it. since sunday coffee tastes extra good to me. i dunno why... but it does.
well thats all for today.

The Smell of Coffee
last night i babysat for the first time in a long time. i babysat for this new couple in church. they are both really nice. they have just moved here, so their house had no furnature. lol! i sat on the floor and watched movies all night. the little boy, jackson, was asleep even before i got there. i was there from 9:10p.m.-1:10a.m. they had gone out to see Prince Caspian.
so, this morning i am making a bigger pot of coffee than usual. i was able to sleep in a bit too=) if i go to bed late and sleep in, its weird, but i think it makes me more tired. i dunno. maybe im just imagining it.

a walk to remember
oh my word.
there are few movies that ive cried during and even fewer books... come to think of it, i dont think ive ever cried while reading a book. i did today though. i read a walk to remember in two days. i finished the last part today, crying.
it was such a sad book and the ending is so unclear. its also kind of happy, in a weird way. well, a sad happy. if that makes sense.
i just felt like letting you know that.

after church our family (minus dean, again) went to the wrights for a going away party for hannah. she is going to be gone in nepal until sept. 2 ( i think it was). ill miss you hannah<3
after that, we went over to the ways house so zoei could get somethings so she could spend the night. we just finished watching "kate and leopold." after i get off here, i am going to put some music on her ipod from my itunes.
then tomorrow morning we are all going surfing. its zoeis first time. i hope i can be kind of helpful. im not like crazy good, as you know. it should be fun though.
later tomorrow evening, we will take her home.
other than that, not much.
im slowly getting a lot of glass bottles for my room. im going to fill them with sand, shells, and rocks. i had already had a few bottles filled. after i went to visit jordie, i got inspired to fill more=) i think i even have buttons in one bottle.
thats all can think to say. im super tired and my brain isnt working right.

my heart beat so hard, i think i cracked a rib
wow. i literaly just woke up (7:34am). i had a scary dream. ive never had a dream like this before.
i woke up and my heart felt like it was pounding against my rib cage (and for a few mintutes, that was the only sound i could her) and i was breathing fast and deep... took me a minute to calm down. even then my heart was still going crazy.
the beginning of my dream was really sad. i cried a lot. so did a few other people. it was horrible. i was crying because i felt like a horrible person!. the others were cryng because of me. all i wanted to do was fix it and make it better. i felt like i had no power to do so.
the next section of my dream everything was happy. everyone was happy. things seemed better for the most part.
after things were getting better, we went to meet some people at the beach. something happened though... my mom and i were driving seprate cars, i was in the volvo with jake, noelle, and carter. mom was in one of our other two cars, alone. i think her car broke down (or disappeared). we were driving on opposite sides of the freeway. one of those crazy bridges that lift you, what feels like, 3hundred thousdand feet from the gravel floor. we were on one of those. except different ones. so we were like half a mile apart on one of those things. so i was stopped on the other side, and she on the other.
a huge black guy in a scratchy, wool sweater and jeans was dropped off right infront of my car. all the kids had gotten out and i had been trying to keep them from getting run over and back in the car again. the guy came up to me and grabbed me. i screamed, asking him what he was doing and why. he told me it was very important. i then asked him what he wanted. all he said was he wanted a red bag. however, i didnt have a red bag. i had no idea what he wanting to do now that i had told him that. either he didnt believe me, or he didnt care. he slammed me to the gravel floor. all my sibs stood helpless. cept for jake who was kicking the man halfheartedly with an odd expression on his face. the whole time this was going i kept thinking, this cant be happening. i told myself to pull together and kick him or punch him in the throat (like i had been taught). in the end i found that i couldnt. he had a hold on me that felt like i had no way to defend myself. an arm came loose and i would swing at him. my mom was helpless on the other side. i figured she was calling the cops. in the end i woke up and never found out if i made it. its wierd, kind of remember a red bag in the beginning or middle of my dream...
hope i didnt bore you...
talk to you all later. i have to get ready to go to the beach....

Mother's Day and Such...
im so tired today. ive been tired a lot. i havent been sleeping all that well. i slept better last night but then i went to bed too late and got up too early. alas, im still tired. i slept so hard last night too!!! geeze. w/e
i got to see jordie friday and saturday... i went over to their house for maddies birthday party, then she came over to my house to spend the night. it was so amazing to see her! its been like forever and a day since i last saw her. i think it was at the nutcracker performance. and even then i only saw her for a short time. it was fun=)
so yesterday, from like 10:30a.m. i was at pismo. we went surfing in the morning and then we walked around for a while. the waves were really blown out... still, we had fun. for a while dean and i paddled out past the break and just sat out there. jake tried to get out there, however, he ended up just messing around on his board. hehe=) short legs, short arms, short... well, just short=P i dont think that we are going tomorrow. we usually go on mondays but, i dont know if we will. maybe later in the week.
mothers day was pretty good. well, i had fun. my grandma drove up. its awesome to have her here. she went to the beach with us yesterday too. she was gonna try to surf wit htme but then chickened out. haha! it was so lame. ill get her out next time. er, well, she said that she would next time. who knows if she really will. she is afraid that a shark is going to get her. ( never mind that is too shallow where we surf.... way to shallow. she is convinced). anyway, off subject. grandma and i took the volvo to church so that we could go pick up a few things for my mom. after church, i drove her around town... starbucks, the mall, albertsons.... then home for an amazing dinner. i think that both my mom and grandma had a good mothers day. i hope they did!
im so excited!! im going to go get my hair fixed on tuesday! its way to grown out and looks horrible. i really am gonna keep it short for a while. maybe al ong while. i was thinking evem a new style. i just dont know what style. ill prolly just keep the same style...
