post #80...woohoo.

it's only taken me about 2.5 years. but i'm finally at 80 posts! yay. :)

right now i'm not in school. no. i'm not skipping. it's a "cold day" . dumb. that's what i say. i mean i guess i'd rather be sitting around doing nothing than being in school and freezing my butt off. so today i woke up at 6 in the am. and then deirdre called and was like there's no school today...so i fell back asleep. best story ever right? haha. i know im great.

this is week number 2 for being at dad's. not much has been going on.

kristin has been on a cruise in the carribean --grrrr...she's tanning and im trying to get warm by sitting in every window with sun in it. also, kristin's coming back on saturday but i probably won't talk to her until sunday because im not sure when she's exactly getting back. today i'll probably call her and leave her a message.


josh came over for a few minutes on sunday and we talked and decided that we're going to have a LOST party tomorrow. more like watch LOST and eat lots of food. sounds like loads of fun iknow. then on monday we were over at the Pope's house and doin a little surprise thing for Mrs. Pope and i was looking at all of josh's music. holy crap. he has a lot. i mean...it's insane. but awesome. i really need an opportunity to take cool pictures of him because it's fun and i have a really cool idea.

erin hasnt really talked to me at all since my birthday. she's probably thinking that im not talking to her. but really the last thing i remember actually telling her was i was thinking about getting my hair cut really short. cause i'm really fed up with my hairright now. and sh'es like "oh...well good luck with that." and then i was like oh well thanks for your support...
later she was talking about getting her hair cut shorter....i was thinking seriously>!?!?!? so i said back to her..."well good luck with that." and jsut kinda ignored her. i mean. nvermind.

so this post has been sitting here waiting to be finished. and im talkin on the phone to my bestest friend in the world. joshua. ok we just figured out that we're headed out to lunch and then to hang out for a while. love you all and ill talk to you later.

yay for cold days.... :P

oh man. ive been on the computer for way too long this afternoon. ive just been updating stuff and making my blog look awesome...you know stuff like that.

anyways. so a lot has happened. selah was diagnosed with diabetes type 1 a few weeks ago and then we went to a class thing for that. for school we had our winterim class. that was a really fun time. i was in world religions with staub. he's a really great teacher and i learned so much. we sang at St. Paul's with choir and then i had erin over after that. we went and saw P.S. I Love You. It's a really cute movie. Kristin recommended it so we went and saw it...i LOVE it. :) then Josh picked us up and we went to dad's and hung out. we went and played in the snow and had some cake and just had a good time. then i hung out at NSAA a lot last week waiting for dad to pick me,ethan and aidan up from there to go home. on my birthday we went to the LDS church thing in WB with the world religions class. that was an experience..but i did get to eat out for my birthday. :) and i found out that isabel and michael broke up from erin and then josh later. i was mad. cause isabel was being stupid. anyways. after school we went to NSAA and hung out. we ate some ham sandwiches and pringles and watched the HSM practice. then dad picked us up and we came home. when jen and isabel got home we had cake and opened my presents. I got the new Matthew West cd!!! and the movie Amazing Grace and a necklace from Omi and GrandpaDu. i was soo psyched for the new cd. it was really cool. i put it on my iPod and fell asleep listening to it...because i was tired. not bored of the cd. :) this weekend I worked and then on sunday josh came over and we watched some of the Packer game. then we had to leave so we could get michael and go watch Cloverfield. we got to the movie and josh and michael were obnoxious. haha. actually they were just being fine.the movie was really good. i think we're going to go see it again because we're a little confused but in a good way..if that makes any sense. it was a good time. the best i've had in a while. so we watched the movie and stayed through the end of the credits and then we drove around just relaxing. it was a really nice time to just hang out and talk. and listen to the Defying Gravity remix that josh has! AHH it's amazing. and then we were singing New day to michael cause he needed to hear the words..haha. it was more like we were chanting to him. yesterday i hung out around home because we had a day off and i worked.
that was basically the quick catch up of my past couple of weeks...with some things left out of course. :D anyways. now i'm off to watch the boys and make this scarf for Nic because he wanted one.

"God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains; it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world." - C.S. Lewis

oh mw's new cd rocks. yay!

later.
