My little sister is growing up!

My little sister is going to be a freshman in high school this year! And didn't quite hit me until.....830 this morning when I dropped her off at good ole CHS for her freshman orientation! HOLY CRAP! When did this happen? Since when did I leave Central and now she goes there? I just think it's the strangest thing. Last night she got to cheer for the first time at the jamboree and it was so much fun watching her! I even found myself watching Central play and cheering for them?! And then morning when I dropped her off, I felt so many emotions! I was happy that she's in hs now, I was confused that she's in hs now, I was (I can't believe I'm about to say this) a little bit jealous. Don't get me wrong, I do not, I repeat, I do not miss hs at all! But freshman year was SO much fun. It was the best year I had at Central. I'm just glad that she's going to get to go to a much better Central than I did. Not that anything was wrong with it, because in all honestly I loved Central. I just didn't much care for hs itself nor did I care for pretty much anyone in the school. I did have my favorite teachers of course. I still keep in touch with several of them. Those teachers meant so much to be, because they weren't just my teacher, they were my friend too. I guess I'm just excited for Jordan to experience everything I did while I was at Central. I hope she meets those favorite teachers who she can have relationships with outside of class. I hope she befriends all the principals so she'll never get in trouble. I hope she buys Mrs. Pratt's DECA cookies and I hope she takes Marketing so she gets to bake them! I hope she gets to take drivers ed with Coach Patty (who I'm still in love with and going to marry one day). I hope she gets out of class to do favors for teachers. I hope she has a class with Skip so she can secretly call him Skip behind his back. Gah, I sound like a sappy mom writing this! But seriously, I think I like Central now more than when I was actually a student there.



If you really knew me you would know that I move into my apartment tomorrow and I'm getting very anxious/excited/nervous!

I Can't Think of a Title

Today has been a really good, eventful day so I thought I'd tell ya about it. I babysat this morning for a few hours...and I'm done for the week :) WOOP WOOP! Well, I'm babysitting for Mrs. Pratt Saturday but I'm pumped about that. After I got done babysitting I had these big plans to go to the pool, but it's just too hot, and mom had some errands to run so I tagged along. We took Jordan, my sister, to get her Lettermen's jacket ordered. It's going to be super cute. Obviously. I mean I helped pick it all out lol. Just kidding, but I really did and she kept getting pissed at me. I can't help it. I just want my sista to be the coolest girl in school. After that we went to Lowest to get some new filters. Then we went to a pet store and got some new fishies for our pond! We've had a pond for forever and we used to have lots of big fishies, but as some point a cat ate them....and them our pond messed up real bad. So now that it's back in order we decided to get some new fish. I have a picture I can put on here. The yellow one is honeysuckle. The black and white mixed one is Dooley...yes for Darek Dooley. And the white one with creepy all black eyes is Grim Reaper. He's really scary but he's my favorite, and of course I named him lol. Oh yeah, we also got a half priced drink at sonic. That's a must if you're out and about on such a hot day. Then we came home and started cleaning house because mom thinks it's just absolutely disgusting. I don't really like to clean all that much, but I do love to clean things out and throw things away! That is my favorite thing ever to do. So now I'm just really tired. I got up at like 7:30 this morning to take my sister to cheer practice so my mama wouldn't have to since she's on vaca this week. I know, I know...daughter of the year right here. Well, today has been a really great day. Oh yeah....I move into my apartment in 16 days and I am reeeally excited!

This is my sweet baby Colt. I watch him pretty much everyday of the week. He's my buddy. I love that baby to death. How cute is he!?

If you really knew me you would know that I love raspberry tea from sonic.

LAZY

la·zy/ˈlāzē/Adjective

1. Unwilling to work or use energy

 

Yup, that's me. I am unwilling to use energy. I feel awful saying that, but I have been so lazy this summer. Granted, I do babysit every morning so that might be why I chose to sit and do nothing all day once I get home. But I wish I would do something! Today I got done babysitting around 1. I had these big plans to come home and go straight to the pool. Well, as soon as I got home I realized how hot it was...then I slowly but surely talked myself out of going. I mean, come on! Really? All I would have to do is change into a bathing suit, make a water to drink, drive to the pool, and sit. SIT! I could be lazy there yet I chose to be lazy indoors. Why do I do that? Now that I'm typing it all out I'm getting kind of mad that I didn't go to the pool now. Gaaah. It's such a pretty day and I'm waisting it inside. Maybe I should go for an hour or two....I really could use some sun. I look so pale! And I hate it.

 

 

If you really knew me you would know that I've never been this pale during the summer in my whole 18 years of life. I think I was darker even when I was a baby!

Woops...

So, yeah.. I'm really sorry I haven't posted on here in FOREVER! Most people would say it's because they're having such an exciting summer and they just don't have time. But I haven't had an exciting summer and I've had lots of time. Actually, this has been one of my worst summers to date. It's been extrememly boring. I don't do anything but babysit, which I do enjoy, but it makes me tired. I hardly ever go to the pool. I don't see anybody. And it's just not been very fun, except for the beach with Courtney and her fam. I just wish something exciting would happen. Honestly, at this point I'm jus ready for school to start. I really do miss it. And I'm even more exciting to move in to an apartment next month!!! I'm so pumped. At first I really wasn't all that excited about it, but now I'm ready. I know I'll do much better in school being away from home, and I really enjoyed living in a dorm last year so this will just be an extension of that. Well, I have to go babysit here in a little bit and I was just trying to kill some time. (I always give myself so much time to get ready when all I need is like 15 minutes.) I'll be back soon with a most interesting post hopefully.


If you really knew me you would know that I love the show Big Brother!

The Bachelorette....

...is my guilty pleasure. I hate to miss it. And if I do miss it, I make sure I watch it as soon as I wake up the next morning. But to be completely honest, Ashley is on my nerves already. She needs to chill out and stop being so whiny. And even though I don't like her very much, I have to watch it. I just do. I'm kind of addicted to tv in the summer. It's really bad. But oh well, I have nothing important to do! SUMMER IS SO GREAT!!

ps I'm really in the mood for some crafts. I just thought I'd tell you. I've been on Etsy all day long looking at Christian art and I want to do something soo bad!!!

I HAVE A JOB!

Well.....I wouldn't really call it a job. I'm just babysitting for a family 4 days a week! And let me just say that I am so pumped. One because I really love kids, and there are 3 of them! Two because it's money. These kids are so cute! Camryn is the only girl, she's 6. Rhett is 5. And Colt is almost 11 months old! I start watching them tomorrow and I am so excited. I have prayed and prayed and prayed about finding a babysitting job this summer, and now I finally have one! I'm just really excited to be working with little kids and making some money too.





If you really knew me you would know that I really love to watch movies.

Summer Nights

This week has just been really good, and I haven't posted in a while, so I thought I'd tell you about my week! Let's see here....

Sunday I went to the lake with Brooklyn! I love the lake. I wake boarded and got up (woop woop). But boy were my arms and shoulders sore the next day!
Monday I went to the lake with Courtney and her fam! I seriously love the Horner family. They're pretty much my second family. I spend so much time with them and I love it. Oh, Saturday was her mom's birthday so I went out to eat with them. It was great fun. Monday night I hung out with Abbie, Eric, and Chase. We just drove around, went to Dunkin', and sat by the fire at Erics house.
Tuesday I went to the pool with Abbie, Eric, and Chase. I didn't stay long cause it was hot and I was hungry. Jordan and I went back down later that night to swim.
Wedneday I think I went to the pool again with my mom. And Abbie came down. And Brooklyn and Jeannie and Tim and Camryn came over. It was great fun. But for some reason I got totally fried! We went and got Mexican and then went to the mall for a little while.
Thursday I just layed around all day long. I helped mom around the house a little bit. Then Jordan and I watched Easy A and I took like a three hour nap. Then that night I took Jordan and some of her friends to the pool for a little late night swimming session.
Today, mom had a garage sell. And then we closed her up early and went to the pool for a few hours. We also went to grub at Cheddars....SO GOOD. And I just dropped my sister and her friends off at Alice Bell and now I'm sitting at home posting this blog. I'm just way too cool...actually I just have way too much free time.
Tomorrow me, Abbie, Eric, and Chase are going camping! And on a hike! I'm so pumped.


Sorry this post was totally boring. I just thought I'd fill you in on my life.

If you really knew me you would know that I love sour patch kids!
