Only nine more days!!! I can last! (I hope) Sorry I haven't been on here in like a million years!!! I've been busy and outside and such!!! This weekend we're going south to go camping!!! And there's a good chance that we might go to the same place as Jodi!!! What a coinkidink!!!!! That would be so fun!!! I could like wake up and go to her tent and be like hey!!!! I hope you all are spending lots of time having lots of fun outside!!!
I love life!!!! That was really random, but it's true. And I mean that in a completely serious way. Even the retarded stuff that I hate, I still love. Because without it, I wouldn't learn and know better and I would be less experience. And even though I suck because I am a hypocrite for saying this, I hate when people say "Just wait" or "Not right now" because (and this is kind of depressing) you could die at any moment!!! So why wait? You have to LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't wait!!! But I'm not saying you should rush rush rush all the time! You should still have time to sit and relax and close your eyes and be happy and thank God for living and loving and laughing and everything you have, the good and the bad!!! Because everything he throws at you is an opportunity, and you have to every opportunity you get!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But don't waste it! And if you make a mistake, then that's ok, because then you'll know exactly what not to do next time. Sometimes God even gives you opportunities to make mistakes. So go do everything you said you would wait for!!!! Skydive! Scuba dive! Run a marathon! Play with your siblings! Take out the trash! climb a tree! Overcome your biggest fear! Do whatever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just go and do SOMETHING, because every moment is a moment that could be great!

Happy Mother's Day!
I hope you all are having fun with your mothers!!! Yesterday I went to Rainbow and Cub and I saw Alex E, Kevin and Kyle's mom, and Sheridan and Shaefer's mom. Then today we went to Walgreen's and I saw Jennifer's mom and sister and we said hi. Anyway, I have a 'lesson-y thing' for you all!
Everybody takes everything for granted!!! I know you hear that all the time, but it's true! Like there are people out there who have nothing, and here we are in America with so much, and we're not in the least bit thankful!!! We have music and sports and houses and TV's and school (yes, you should be thankful) and everything, and yet we still complain!!! And the birds when you wake up in the morning, and the warm sunshine, and the awesome friends, and the people who are really nice and do random acts of kindness. And now I'm reminding myself of Mrs. Merchant, but it's so true! People should be nicer!!! But that's not the point that I'm trying to get across! The point is, you should be thankful for what you have. Even the little stuff. Like sunny days or mothers. Or baby birds or llamas (that was random. Tia's sister wants a llama) So just take the time to be thankful for everything that you have. Be thankful for life!!!!!!!!!

Move Along
It's funny how so many people freak out. Like whether its a test, or a lot of homework, or something lost, or whatever, they just completely freak out and worry. Even if it already happened, like they didn't do so great on an assignment, they'll worry and worry and worry even though it already happened. And I'm not saying that I don't do that. Like for instance, in the past two days I have managed to lose quite a few things, and I have been worrying so much. But OH WELL. That's like my motto. Why worry if it already happened? You can't change it. You're only wasting your time. Think of all the other things you could be doing instead of worrying. And worrying causes wrinkles! Relax, because chances are whatever you're worrying about is STUPID! Think of it this way: in ten, or even two years, will you remember this??? Probably not. So forget whatever's on your mind, okay??? Tomorrow's Friday! Don't worry, be happy!!! As Louisse/hippies would say: Chill out, dudes!!! Be mellow!!!!!

Joy
That title is because I'm happy!!! Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I haven't been on the computer in a long time. I have the song Pocketful of Sunshine in my head. It's really good and inspiring. The song Breathe by Anna Nalick is really good too. It's not that common so in case you haven't heard it here are the lyrics:
2 AM and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake,
"Can you help me unravel my latest mistake?,
I don't love him. Winter just wasn't my season
"Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all to criticize,
Hypocrites. You're all here for the very same reason
'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button, girl.
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe... just breathe,Oh breathe, just breathe
May he turned 21 on the base at Fort Bliss
"Just a day" he said down to the flask in his fist,
"Ain't been sober, since maybe October of last year."
Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while,
But, my God, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles,
Wanna hold him. Maybe I'll just sing about it.
Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table.
No one can find the rewind button, boys,
So cradle your head in your hands,
And breathe... just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe
There's a light at each end of this tunnel,
You shout 'cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
If you only try turning around.
2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song
If I get it all down on paper, it's no longer inside of me,
Threatening the life it belongs to
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud
And I know that you'll use them, however you want to
But you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understand.
and breathe, just breathe
woah breathe, just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe.
Also, the song Angels by Jessica Simpson that is soooo good:
"Angels"
I sit and wait does an angel contemplate my fate
and do they know the places
Where we go when we're grey and old
'cos I've been told that salvation lets their wings unfold
So when I'm lying in my bed thoughts running through my head
And i feel that love is dead I'm loving angels instead
[Chorus:]
And through it all he offers me protection a lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong and down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me I know that life won't break me
When I come to call he won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead
When I'm feeling weak and my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
And I know I'll always be blessed with love
and as the feeling grows
He breathes flesh to my bones and when love is dead
I'm loving angels instead
[Chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]
Listen to it on YouTube! It's really good. Another good song is Fall For You by Secondhand Serenade, but I won't put the lyrics on here. This post is longish so bye now!!!
