Goodbye, Friend

Today is the last day of summer.

In fact, tonight is a school night. (That means earlier bed time but you stay up until 4 A.M. cause your insides are all fluttery.)

I don't really want to talk about it... I'm kind of emotional when it comes to the end of summer...
We shared so many memories - it's also my last summer in highschool. Eep! That makes me feel a little scared inside.

I've been in school every year for 12 years. Pre-school totally counts. I have discovered now...

They can't trick me.

I know what school is - I know what homework is - I know what late assignments are - I know what projects are - I know what group projects are - I know what gossip is - I know what rude people are - I know what having seizures at school is like...
I KNOW EVERYTHING!

But I also know that everything will be okay. Things are always okay. I love how it works that way!
I have a good schedule - I have many many friends - I am smart - I am brave...

I'm sure things will turn out great. If not... I'm totally fine with homeschooling. *wink wink*

Sometimes I don't feel like I'm old enough to be a senior in highschool, I still can't do 3rd grade math very well ya know, but then I think of how long I've been going to school and it feels ready. I've been going to that highschool for two years now. TWO YEARS PEOPLE!! What an accomplishment!! Through all my hardships and stumbles along the way, (some real stumbles and the rest are the metaphorical kinds) I have loved highschool. Lucky me!

I Am A Very Ladylike Kind of Person

I decided that saying "WHAT THE POOP" probably isn't a very ladylike thing to say on a blog. But if you have to Google if ladylike is one word or two words or has a hyphen and then you have to Google how to spell hyphen..

You're probably not very ladylike anyway.

What the Poop

I can't comment on my own posts!

WHAT THE POOP

Sometimes My Brain Is Forgetful

"I feel like I didn't do anything."

After talking with my mom, I felt like a big loser for saying "I feel like I didn't do anything." HA! These are somethings I did this summer:

• Went to the American Idol concert! Casey Adams? Yes, please. He is absolutely DREAMY. So much fun to go to a concert with the fam though! It was amazing and we had a BLAST!


• Mom, little sister, brother, and some of their friends (and I) went to an art museum and a creative buzz was exactly what I needed to last the summer.


• Girls Camp!


• Babysitting. I can honestly say that I enjoyed some of it. Some of it.


• I had an online class this summer. English. It was really good for me, again, just what I needed to last out the summer.


• EFY!!! Just two weeks ago, I went to EFY, Especially For Youth, and it was delightful.


• I played with my brother and his wife. They are the two cheeriest people I know. Love those guys! Went shopping with his wifey and had some deep chats with my brother. Brothers can be bums sometimes, but I really love them. Sometimes.

Turns out I did a lot this summer! Whoop!

She Has Surfaced!

I haven't blogged in ages.
It's been really nice.
I get bored of blogging.

But my passion for blogging has been re-birthed and the fire is raging!

Summer is over. Almost. Sometimes I feel like I don't do anything. And when I say "Sometimes I feel like I don't do anything," I mean it.

This summer:

• I've gotten better at brushing my teeth. (You can "hip hip hooray!" if you'd like)



• Guitar has become easier for me. I've even learned a few bar chords! That is a HUGE accomplishment for me. My fingers are weak sauce.



• I started doing "cardboard art." I'll have to post some pictures but I'm too lazy so that is an empty promise. ANYWAY. I paint something on a piece of old cardboard (I feel bad painting on paper. Feels like a waste.) and then I shave down the cardboard around the paint so it's like, cool. I CAN'T EXPLAIN! Oh well.



• BIG CHECK!!! I wont a big check! That was on my bucket list, to win a big check. It sits proudly in my bedroom and my pride swells each time I see it. I make sure I see it a lot.



• TOMS. I bought some. Olive green Toms. They are beautiful. Yum.

I can't think of anything else. I'm back to that "I feel like I didn't do anything" feeling. That's okay. What I did, was delicious.
