hey. so right now im in class...yet again. this class isnt too bad. it's computers I. we do lots of typing and learning more about word documents. so yeah. i already finished my paper so i have free time. and my teacher is like " you blog teia?" um.. yes i do. :)

ok i really need to go study for a quiz i have next hour. :) thats the way it goes i guess. hope you have a great day!

love . me. ♥

its november. i love it. its fall time. im a little sad that the leaves are basically done changing colors and falling off of trees. now im looking forward to buying everyone christmas presents. just because it'll be tons of fun. and that's my favorite part of the season, getting everyone else presents and seeing what they think of them. yay christmas.

the past few weeks have been really neat. ive had amazing friends to hang out with and we've become closer. last weekend was dad's birthday. saturday we cleaned the house and then later mrs. pope, kristin and josh came over. all of us had a blast and we ate tons of food and desserts. we had a bonfire in the huge bonfire pit that we had. and then some of us went and sat out on the pier. i love that pier. its just the perfect spot to go and talk. even though its no different than sittin right next to the water. i guess its kinda like youre not even a part of the yard anymore. you become on your own little island and you can talk about anything and everything and noone will hear you. thats what i love about it. so for a while kristin, isabel and i sat out there and talked. it was just about the week and how excited we were to see each other but it meant the world to me. it was a great time to just relax.

josh and kristin are my best friends in the whole world. its funny when i read that sentence because it sounds like a little kid saying it. it sounds like im in 3rd grade and its one of those friendships that lasts for like 2.5 years and then you totally forget about your "best friends" but. the funny thing is is that there's no other way to put that sentence more perfectly. i can tell them everything and they listen. sure they might think im annoying sometimes but it happens. they dont look at me with that "i-have-no-idea-what-you're-saying-but-ill-pretend-i-do" look. they just know. for the first time in my life. i finally know what its like to have that friend who i can tell everything to. its the first time that i know i might be soooo angry at them that i cant talk to them but in a little while....i just get over it. i finally just have those people that i can think about and then just laugh or smile to myself because i thought of them and that's all i need to make my day. these two wonderful people are probably going to be the only ones who understand this but that's ok because if they understand it...thats all i need.
i realize more and more why God put these two in my life. i dont know what i'd do without them. i love them. the end. :P

oh and here's some great pictures of us.

we act like this on sundays only guys..---> :P

alexis is my cousin. :) so we talked last night for the first time in ages. ok. maybe it's only been about two or three weeks. but we're family i think maybe we should talk a little more than that. so the two of us talked for a few minutes and i realized how much i missed her. i dont know what else to say but i miss her and i love her. and i cant believe she's 16...we're the same age now!! yay. :) but not for long...my birthday is coming up.

to end this post i've decided to add one of my favorite songs right now because i love the lyrics. and plus. whitney houston sings it. and she's amazing.

Where do I go when there's nobody else to turn to?
Who do I talk to when nobody wants to listen?
Who do I lean on when there's no foundation stable?
I go to The Rock
I know He's able
I go to The Rock
Chorus:
I go to The Rock for my salvation
I go to the stone that the builders rejected
I run to the mountain and The Mountain stands by me
When the earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ, the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to The Rock
Where do I go, where do I go,
When the storms of life are threatening?
Who do I turn to when those winds of sorrow blow?
And is there a refuge in the time of tribulation?
I go to The Rock
I know He's able
I go to The Rock
I know he's the rock for my salvation
I know he's the stone that the builders rejected
I run to the mountain and The Mountain stands by me
When the earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ, the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to The Rock
I go to The Rock
You can go to The Rock
Oh I can go
I go to The Rock
When the earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ, the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter, when I need a friend
I go to The Rock


really this is the end.

i love you all soo much. and i miss you.

love me. ♥

May It Be
May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home

Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

May it be the shadows call
Will fly away
May it be you journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun

Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

A promise lives within you now

♥ me.

new blog time. lots has happened since i last wrote. school started. the whole first week was pretty crappy. im not gonna lie. whatever. um. so that tuesday night kristin and josh did come over. it was a blast. we were going to get a movie from blockbuster. and then decided that we were going to drive on paradise drive. first of all. it was foggy. really really foggy. you couldnt see anything. so we drove up there. and yeah. kristin, josh , isabel, kellen and i were all in kristin's car. i think that we all freaked (tweaked) out at least once while we were on paradise drive. it was crazy.! then we came back to dad's and watched vacancy. yeah. i dont think it wouldve been as scary but all of us were still freaked out from the drive we took before. so we were screaming and hiding under blankets even though it was really warm outside. we were freaked out. then the next day isabel, michael, kristin, josh and i all went to king's buffet. and it was sooooo good. i love chinese food. so we went there. and ate a ton of food. and then met kristin's cousin or something...at culvers it was hilarious. hm. after that we hung out at josh's house for a while. and just hung out. nothing in particular. weird. then we drove michael home....it was the last day of summer. :(
school started and that was ok. i struggled through my first day. i almost ran into some walls then i couldnt open my locker. that sunday kellen, mom and i went shopping in the wb. and we went to noodles for dinner. and josh was working. it was really funny. last week during the week was pretty boring. i didnt do much. and then this past weekend. we had the back to school dance and that was fun. i danced with sarah. :) she's so cute. then saturday josh, selah, elise, ethan and i hung out at the park and made some videos. i went to the java house and bought a smoothie. cause josh was working and i told him i was going to go bug him. so i did.....so the 5 of us hung out at the park...we videotaped the whole thing it was soo much fun. and we had a sprinkler fight...that was really funny. cause josh didnt want to get wet. and then he wore dad's clothes for the night.
on sunday we just hung out. i cleaned the garage. then we went to michaels for a bonfire. and videotaped taht .....it was nuts. monday. i went to the beach with mom, sam and mason. it was sooo nice out and we had tons of fun eating on the beach. anyways i have homework to do. and maybe people to call. so im gonna go......BYE.
♥ me.

i didnt realize that i havent written since last sunday. wow. im a dork. anyways. so school starts on thursday.. :( yeah. well actually i dont really know if i want it to come. i think the hardest part about it coming and being in school is taht i really dont want this summer to end. i dont want to forget anything taht happened cause that would suck. i just i love everything that happened this summer from mason's baptism and party all the way to craigs "pool party" haha. which really ended up being not a pool party cause of the rain. oh well. its been raining for like 4 days straight or something. well not the entire time.but off and on. its just beenr eally cloudy and stuff like that. what a pain in the butt. i dont like rain. i do but its too cloudy and overcast and its depressing and grrrrrrr. im gonna have enough of this in winter.

ook so ..on friday i was supposed to watch a movie with josh cause i was incredibly bored. and wanted to watch a movie. but then he totally ditched me. ;) haha. i was really really mad. i mean come on. but he's like oh i promise well do it tomorrow. after i get off of work. yeah. right.
i had this message from kristin sayng that josh was going to chicago for the night. and then i went to work ....really really mad. so i got off workat like 9 andwent home. iwas so mad. i talked to kristin. and josh was there. and i was being a real bitch. sorry.but i was being mean. i mean thats the second night in a row. so yeah. theni went and read. and came back down and kristin's like we're gonna call you. so they did. and josh told me that i shouldnt evenbe mad at him. and i was like are you kidding me? i just was blown off yesterday and you told me youd be here tonight. but no. you did it again. then he told me that kristin and him had been talking about isabel and me the whole night...so thats why i shouldnt be mad. kristin was telling me how she was coming ina few days and then we'd hang out and watch a movie. and drink koola. and maybe get isabel to climb in a few cupboards. haha. im not really mad at him now. all i wanted to do was watch a movie but whatever. i guess tonight will be exciting.
tonight kristins coming and hopefully we'll hang out. well with josh . and watch a movie. cause i still havent watched a movie ...and already really early last week i told kristin i wanted to watch a movie with josh. yep. still hasnt happened. well if you dont count the best of broadway thing. :) so then tomorrow michael, isabel, josh and i are going to have dinner and hang out before summer ends...then school starts the next day.
yeah thats my week.

yay. aly read my blog. haha.

ok. write more a different day.

♥ teia.

right now i am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo mad. it is driving me nuts. you know what. i HATE it when people dont let me know if that dont want to do something. or if they just decide that they "dont need me" anymore. you dumb stupid people . just let me know. i think -no i know- i would be less mad if you just told me instead of totally blowing me off. i mean seriously are you kidding me. i sit and wait and sit and wait. and then only to find out that im not waiting for anything. STUPID > ahhhhh. i am so angry. i hate it. gr. gr. gr.gr. so lets see.. calming myself. ok. so today i cleaned my room for three hours. it wasnt that messy its just that i took my time on it. and went through EVERYTHING. like all my clothes figuring out what i was getting rid of and went through all of my drawers full of crap and looked through all of it. i threw away and got rid of a lot of stuff. then after that . i had dinner. and was on the computer. and up in my room trying to stay sane by myself. haha. funny right? yeah i know. so lets see. um. because i was so bored i put on a sparkly, glittery butterfly and flower tattoo on my left shoulder. it looks cute. yes. tahts how bored i was. hm. im so tired of being on the computer just because im bored and have nothing else to do. so yeah. i really really dont want to go back to school. just cause im bored of that too. hm. waht else. so isabel was just sitting in the recliner and all of a sudden she's like i just peed and it felt sooooooooo good. and i turned aroundand said WHAT? ...shes like. oh i meant. wow . sorry. 20 minute late reaction. but when i peed it felt really good.
anyways. that was really funny.
the best part about hanging out with isabel, michael and josh. is that i laugh so much and really hard when im with them. i never realized how good laughing feels...for the first month and a half when we hung out we laughed all the time. then josh left for his "fun week" in chicago with kristin and hunter and them. and i didnt laugh that entire week. well i did but it wasnt as often. but then when whatshisname got back and we hung out together ...we were laughing and it just felt like this huge blanket was being taken off. i felt soo much better after laughing and letting all the crappy parts go. it felt so good. and i realized how much i really really love laughing. how did i live without it before these three wonderful people hung out with me....? i really dont know. anyways. so yeha. i got to talk to josh's friend kristin on the phone when we were at six flags and it was really funny. she's really sweet. i cant wait to meet her. it will be sooo much fun. anyways. hm. im still really bored and its taken me forever to write this thing becuase ive been spacey and crap like that. i really gotta work on my website sometime soon and change the pcitures around. i gotta put up some sweet ones from this summer. so yeah. um ....i m gonna go. i know noone reads this but anyways. so yeah.
i love this summer. and i love the people i hung out with times 1000000000000000000..however taht much is.

hey. guys. so yesterday we went to six flags.it was sooo awesome. i got up cause mrs. pope called and was asking about what was going on. then i got ready and stuff. hm. josh came over and we went to mom's to go pick up isabel and michael. we drove and were talking and crap. then we got there right at ten. right when it opened. there was hardly anyone there because it was supposed to storm really really bad i guess. well it didnt ...really. it was about 90 out and beautiful and sunny. we first went on the superman ride. ahhh. first upside down roller coaster guys!! it was awesome.! hm. what else. we went on like every ride. and all the lines were about 15 minute waits. it wasnt bad at all. it was great. um. this isnt the order or anything but its what we went on and how many times.
raging bull- 3 times
superman- 2 times
vertical velocity- 2
batman- 1
american eagle- 1
iron wolf-1
giant drop- 5 times. :-)
viper- 3 times
demon-1
deja vu-1
swings-1
the car things- 1
also we stood on the bridge for the splashwater falls and stood there cause the line was too long and not worth it. we were soaking wet. i felt bad for the people going on the rides after us cause the seats were probably all wet. gross. so yeah. isabel and michael both got sick and josh felt like he was going to. i felt fine the whole day. um. we had lunch after the first couple of rides so we wouldnt feel sick.then we had water bottle fights the whole day to keep cool. and i ran into a billion and one things. lets see. i ran into a lady who worked at six flags, a wall coming out of the viper, some gate things before superman. it was a struggle the whole day. but it was sooo much fun. we talked about josh's friend phil like the whole day. well not really. isabel and i saw this key chain that said phil on it and we're like hey josh. phil ...phil. and he didnt hear us so for the next 15 minutes we tried telling him about the superman phil keychain. it was great. but he didnt hear us ....then we thought of phil for something else too. anyways. then michael, josh and i were waiting in line for deja vu and kristin called u s. her and i had a great conversation. it was great. josh got sunburned and his hair is like blonde. cause of his highlights from the sun. and we all got really weird suntan lines. anyways. kristin called. and we were talking to her. then she called back when we were on the way home. and yeah. they were struggling too. it was so funny. like all of josh's friends were talking at the same time. and just pretty funny.
"hey guys. look at the water slides. LOOOK AT THE WATERSLIDES!"
so yeha. um. it was a fun filled tiring day yesterdya. i had so much fun. and i loved it. i got to hang out with my favorite people minus minte. we rode on awesome rides. oh i love those people so much.

ok. ill write more some other time.

"there's a peacock in the room"

man. this week. could be the best one of the summer. well i've already decided that this is the best summer of my life. and i dont know if there will ever be a better one. ever. this summer. it started out with us having a bonfire almost every week with just friends. well actually we figured out yesterday taht the first bonfire was isabel, kellen, me and josh. the day before mother's day. so we had a bonfire almost everyweek after that for about a month i guess. that day was amazing . we just hung out and talked about everything. we were up till like three in the mornign talking and watchign movies and stuff.
i just love hanging out with them. i think the best thing for you is to hang out with family and the people you love. well just with those four people its the best thing. they're funny and they make me laugh. they are the best. i cant really describe how much i love them all cause there are no words for it. when i hang out with them there is no doubt of anything in my mind.
ok. so this week. monday minte, michael, josh and i all hung out. we went to the beach and decided to hang out there. then we went to josh's apartment and watched bounty hunter...then dropped michael off.
tuesday. josh, isabel, kellen, minte and i went to go see harry potter. it was really good. minte and isabel were bouncing off the walls hyper. we blasted the music on the way there and on the way back at like 3 in the morning. we had tonsof pixy sticks and mountain dew.. yeah that stuff keep s you awake. the movie was really good by the way.
wednesday. i dont think there couldve been a better day. i got about 4 and a half hours of sleep because of the harry potter movie and then i had to get up early yesterday. then isabel decided to wake up josh at 930 in the mornign. he was not too happy about that. then at like 1030 we headed over to michaels. we stopped at pdq and got gas and i looked for pixy sticks and there WERE NO PIXY STICKS AT THE PDQ!!! what the heck. so i got fun dip. josh got new sunglasses. they were white. haha. then we drove to michaels and were talking to kristen and kelly. and then josh was like i know where we're going. so we went and were rocking out in josh's car on the highway and isabel, michael and i had no idea where we were going but we were dancing in the car. and this semi driver saw us and honked his horn and we were like YEAH! HI!! . then we saw him for passing us and we kept waving at each other. it was soo funn...
so we ended up going to the beach and the rocks and stuff. the day was beautiful. we hung out on the rocks and then went to this beach. well i dont know if it was a beach cause...yeah. so we skipped stones. or at least attempted too. i really suck at skipping. my high was like three. josh's was 8..i think. we walked to the beach beach and saw lindsey kobin. and talked to her. then we were starving so we were driving around. and stopped to take a group picture at a park. the lady that was taking them was soo funny. she was like ok. happy picture. and now a serious one. do something funny now guys. and she was using different angles...it was great. josh asked us if we had heard this song and we were like um. yeah its in how to lose a guy in 10 days. then we drove to mcdonalds. yeah. um. we walked in and isabel remembered something kirin told her..so she was like" TEIA! kiki was like 'does teia like josh?' and she was like 'NOOOO! they're really good friends.' 'oh..well it's not like they're blood-related or anything...' " i was like ewwwww. nothing against josh. but that's weird. yeah. im just gonna leave it at that. so i told them i only had 2 dollars in the car and josh was like 'ill pay for you ...it's like a date..' 'weird....um.no'... so yeah. we had mcdonalds then we drove to josh's apartment. watched part of bounty hunter again.and then hung out. almost fell asleep then drove to michaels. josh played the piano..he was making up music for any action that michael or anyone else did. so this kid fell of his bike and we saw it and all of a sudden theres like BOM BOM BOMMMM. ...dramatic music and he gets up and its all lifting and ...it was hilarious. and we ate dinner. yum it was good. then josh and i drove back to mom's house. on the way there we were talking. well actually mr. chatterbox was. :-D and he talked about a ton of stuff. it was really cool. we made brownies and watched camp.it was a good movie. in the dvd player though was how to lose a guy in 10 days. the movie josh was talking abou tearlier. it was really weird. so then we just hung out and i dotn think any day couldve been better. it was great.

so here's the song of the day...well yesterdday. cause half of the stuff actually happend.
table for two.
Danny and I spent another late night over pancakes,
Talkin' 'bout soccer
And how every man's just the same
We made speculation
On the who's and the when's of our futures
And how everyone's lonely
But still we just couldn't complain

And how we just hate being alone
Could I have missed my only chance
And now I'm just wasting my time
By looking around
But you know I know better
I'm not gonna worry 'bout nothing
Cause if the birds and the flowers survive
Then I'll make it okay
I'm given a chance and a rock
see which one breaks a window
See which one keeps me up all night and into the day

Because I'm so scared of being alone
That I forget what house I live in
But it's not my job to wait by the phone
For her to call

Well this day's been crazy
But everything's happened on schedule
from the rain and the cold
To the drink that I spilled on my shirt
'Cause You knew how You'd save me
before I fell dead in the garden
And You knew this day
long before You made me out of dirt

And You know the plans that You have for me
And You can't plan the end and not plan the means
And so I suppose I just need some peace
Just to get me to sleep.

so all the stuff in bold basically happened yesterday. i ♥ that song. ok guys. hope you have a great day.

♥ always,
teia

yeah. so............um. tomorrow well technically today. is the fourth of july. i just love the fourth. its soo much fun. first of all you wake up. early. well not really but in the summer it's early and you get dressed for a parade. then you see everyone and get candy. and its just fun. then you walk to the park and listen to music and partay. all day long. then you wait till night annd you watch fireworks. how great is that. i mean. all for celebrating the freedom of our country. ok that was my smart comment thing of the night....well ok. maybe not. the whole title of my blog is really what sums it up though.

anyways. im really missing practices right now. well in a way. i miss the people. they were all really great. and nice..but the being tired from practice. not really missing that.
so something exciting to tell you. oh yes. sometimes i talk in my sleep. i dont know why tahts so important but i guess i do. and minte and isabel make fun of me because of it. so what. jsut becuase i have too much to say during the day that i have to say it during the night does not mean you should make fun of me. :-P haha. oh well.
that was a secret of mine. great secret right?
wahts another one. hmmmmmmm. oh. i really dont know what i want to do for the rest of my life. although right now i really really want to make a cd cover of some sort. like if isabel or josh made a cd then i would do the cover for it. you know how awesome that would be? so if you're looking into recording a cd and need a totally awesome cover let me knwo cause that would be really cool if i could fool around with it........
the other day. yesterday i guess i made a summer goals list. yeah. one of the goals is to take 1000 pictures over the whole summer. i guess taht wont be too hard considering i probably already have about 500 maybe. yeah. actually easily i have 500. but thats one of the goals. another one is to do soemthing really spontaneous. no not really i just made taht up cause i cant think of anything else that i had on the list. so yeah. im gonna go to sleep and listen to some great music from "Josh's Mixerooni" ....and probably read and fall asleep while listening to the great music. ttyl

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

♥ teia
^that is sooooooooooo much funnnnnn. :-) haha

man. i really suck at the whole blog thing. i really thought i posted a ton more in the month of june and then i look back and it wasnt that many. there were only like two posts. stupid me. :-) anywho.........so yeah. i guess june couldnt have gotten any crazier for me. or my family. the second week of june i did FIL's vbs. it was a blast. all the kids were sooo cute. and really sweet. although i got the kids that were all over the place. good thing i knew what i was doing. otherwise some little 8th grader wouldve gotten stuck with them and probably wouldve started to cry. just kidding. they werent that bad. anyways. so....i had vbs and then nights practice for the Best of Broadway. on tuesdays, wednesdays and thursdays. it was soooo much fun. first of all the group was just a really good group. everyone got along really well together and they were all great. secondly, my dad and sap were in it. do i really have to go into detail? i will just a littl ebit. ok. so the first day. sap walks in and josh yells out.."ROGER! WE"RE NOT ALONE!!!!!!!" ....the producers. yeah. and sap just starts laughing the whole rest of the time sap and my dad were talking non stop in the back row thing. chit chat. :-) it was funny. then they were singing in weird voices. so those were my nights. lets see. third week i didnt do much except practice. and i found out that i got a job at out and out in downtown cedarburg. YAY. it was really cool. and i was excited. and really nervous. so i started on isabels birthday. which in a way sucked but then afterwards i still got to hang out with everyone. and EVERYONE was at her party. omi and grandpadu, deirdre, her kids, josh, noah, heidi, naomi, all of us. and i think thats aobut it. anyways. josh, isabel, kellen, brennick , minte, heidi, noah and naomi decided they were going to walk to starbucks and then walk over to my work and say hi to me. :-) well. that was interesting. i got off work like 5 minutes before and josh was walking around outside looking in all the windows. and then he walked up and said hi is teia there? and they were like um no...she just got off of work. so then he left. and the next day they were like hey teia this guy. i think it was your cousin or your brother stopped by looking for you. i just kinda laughed cause .....i was not going through the story of how josh is not my cousin or my brother but my uncle. it takes too long. :-) haha. anyways. so yeah. then strawberry fest. i didnt even walk downtown at all. it was quite upsetting ..i love walking down there jsut to look around. o h well.on the sunday allof us in BEST OF BROADWAY . went and performed some stuff in the bandshell. it was really fun. i waskinda nervous but i had a blast. lets see. on monday the 25th. isabel went to michaels and then he came to practice. he helped some people with whatever. otherwise i think he was pretty bored. then isabel, me and josh took him home. but first we decided we were going to stop for ice cream. and nothing was open so we ran into picknsave. and got a half gallon of ice cream and spoons. then we drove to joshs place so he could burn a cd. then we drove to michaels .and were listening to the music REALLY loud and singing obnoxiously loud. and were eating ice cream all at the same time. :) it was a blast. i dont think ive had so much fun. then the ice cream started to melt. and the box started to break. yeah. that was interesting. so we stopped and shoveled the ice cream in. and believe it or not : isabel, josh ,michael and i all finished that ice cream. yes you do. haha. it was great. thne we took some random pictures and finshed driving to michaels ...and we got stuck behind two cars that were going to race. yeah. that was different. but cool. and frightening. cause you're like dont get in a crash yet at the same time you're like YAY. this looks fun watching you do this. so yeah. then we dropped michael off and drove home. except the drive hoem was pretty funny. josh was running out of gas. and we were on a back road. so yeha. we had some good conversations about how we just passed about three tri-pars and one bp....but we still hadnt stopped. oh well . we made it to the tri-par. and it was like pitch black. it was great. anyways. then we practiced crazy. for the next few days for our performance. i didnt see mom for a week cause we got back home and she was sleeping. but during the practices i had a blast. and EVERYONE did such a great job. all the soloists were amazing . and those who didnt solo were great too. mary and josh did stuff from the phantom of the opera. OH MY GOSH! theywere amazing. and i didnt realize that she's as old as isabel. her voice is great. and what else. um.......CHRISTINE. ah. she was wonderful tooo. she doesnt think so but she was and i told her that like a billion times. hm. what else. oh yeah that was the same week that i had vbs at st. martini's in south milwaukee. that was interesting. it was a blast acutally . and i had tons of fun but by the end of the week i was pooped. throughout the rest of the week we had tons of fun and more adventures through picknsave and having a blast with josh. and isabel did a great solo. i dont think there couldve been a better one for her. she was great. plus it was sooo her. popular. yeah.. and she was leaping aroudn teh stage in high heels and a little dress and spinning i was laughing soo hard.
anyways. im glad that josh is home. its really fun. it used to be weird hanging out with him and stuff i guess probably cause he was a few years older but now its just awesome. cause we talk all the time and just get along great.

ok. well i really gotta go and get some actual stuff done.
:-) haha. ill probably eat and read. YUMMMMMMMMMM. and wake mint and isabel up........
