Super hero/Croquet

Sorry I haven't posted in... 2 days. Maybe I shouldn't be apologizing. I'm not obsessed or anything. The last couple days have been fun, actually. I went to Brittany Menzies's 21st birthday party. Totes fun. The Swanby's gave me a ride, so that explains the sign picture. I'll never forget Emily Swanby's "superhero"...
"I am kung-fusion! I have gold belt in kung fu, but blank belt in brain... I will kunfuse you!" Quite hilarious, I must say.
Today, me and Jorba went to Acacia's grad party. I'm going to miss that girl. But don't worry, I'll be visiting her tons. Jordo and Jake played croquet, and the African Croquet Dance was invented. After Jake left, Emily and Taylor came by.
New discovery: BRAWNER/SWANBY NOT GOOD AT CROQUET.
Taylor and Emily came back to the house, and we sat around being lazy. But it was still totes loads of fun. Taylor's still here, but Emily left to celebrate her two years of college. We're celebrating with her in our minds, don't worry. As far as school, I'm starting a new book to finish by the 30th. ...Yeah. We'll see how that goes. That picture of the laptop? That's my story that I head to write for English. It's coming along great...
isn't it.

Funny, I don't have much to say. And that usually doesn't happen.
But there's still hilarious pictures, so that makes up for my boring words.
Peace, Chickadillies.

Birthday Crazies/Coke Dedication

I didn't get a great night sleep last night. The only problem with the heat is that I cannot fall asleep when it's the slightest bit warm. It has to be freezing in my house before I can have any time of sleep whatsoever. So you could say this summer (sleep wise) is going to be difficult. A couple of my friends decided to have parties just when I had spent all my money, but I managed to pick them up something. Plus I put together Acacia's graduating present today... and I'm still working on Sarah's. And everyone else's? I'll worry about that when they have parties.

Jordan decided that he is going to support the handy mart's decision to put in Mexican Coke (the one that uses sugar, that's why it's incredible) by buying about ten every week. I'm proud of how dedicated he is, but I'm afraid my health is going to decrease significantly. At least I'm not one of those people that goes crazy/hyper every time I have sugar, coffee, monster, rockstar, etc. Then I wouldn't drink a lot of it. But I'm totally addicted at this point, sense I've been used to crap Coke forever.

I'll talk to you chickadillies soon. Remember, no mountain to tall, and good luck to all.

The Call-Jorbaba

Jordan took a touching song by Regina Spektor and turned it to something even more beautiful. Please enjoy.

Permit Day

Today was something I considered special. The day started by me working out in the lawn for about two hours, and by the end, I was covered in bugs and various nature crap. But I got to be out in the sun and listen to TBTL and WWDTM for two hours. That made up for my dirty experience. The sun has taken a wonderful tole on me. From good moods, to awesome pictures, it's wonderful. But the best part of the day was I found out that early in the morning (when i was asleep...) Jordan passed his test, and got his permit! Twas exciting. I went with my dad and him to an empty parking lot and was in the car he drove... I thought I was going to perish. But I was proud of him. He did very nice. He also drove home, up giant the 228th hill. Good job Jorba. (: Only a month until he can drive me anywhere my adventurous heart desires. Wonderful.

Another reason today was exciting was because my mom succeeded on picking the right sausage and making a vegetarian hot dog. Yeah, that's right. It can be done. All of our vegetarian needs are met at PCC, basically. But seriously, I was so surprised on how good it was. Good job Mom. (:

As far as school, I'm still trying to accomplish that. I'm probably going to finish by June 30th. Hopefully. I pray that it will go away pretty quickly.

I have more to say, but I don't feel like typing it.

Good night Chickadillies!

72 Degrees

As it was the first day since September that we've had a day where it was over 70 degrees, I thought I'd post some of the pictures I took. It was going to be more interesting, since Jordan was planning on getting his permit, but we didn't want to wait 2 hours to do so. So we went home, and I got out the camera. I know, some of the effects on them are a little over board and insane. But I couldn't help it. I'm just experimenting.

Mixtape.

It's 12:53 am. My mom isn't home from the store yet. I just finished editing about five copies of this. I used paint, picnik, and some other rando things. Sean Detore (mixtape) inspired it. Hope you like it. (:

Revised. :)

Hello All.

I've just deleted all of my previous blog entries, just because they were random and stupid, and from a really long time ago. So you could say I'm starting fresh. Which I'm happy about. (:

I've been thinking lately about how much I love Seattle. Obviously I'm not the only one. I can't wait until I have the freedom to adventure around the amazing city, going to coffee shops and walking on beaches. That day will come soon enough though. I've been contemplating whether I should skip a grade and move out when I'm 16 or 17. I'm not saying that I don't completely adore my family (which I do, that's the only thing that's stopping me), it's just that I feel like it would be cool to have a year or two on my own before I start college. Just to get more stabled and on my feet. I shouldn't probably be thinking about this so early, but I want my adult-ish life to be stable and enjoyable, not stressful and worrisome. I'm praying about it. I'd miss my family terribly, once I move out, I might end up wishing I hadn't.

I'm also thinking about speech and debate. Now that Jordan's gone, everyone has given the thought of me filling his shoes. Let me explain something to you:

1. I don't feel like I have a passion for any type of topic that TP offers.
2. If I did do debate, I'd try LD first.
3. My family wants a break from speech and debate.
4. I don't have money for tournaments, or basically anything else in that area.

So you won't be seeing me in speech&debate for at least another year. Probably two.
But don't worry, I'll still come to tournaments to support my awesome buddies who kick serious butt at it.

I think my life (my high school life) will be surrounded by drama. I feel like I really could excel at that if I keep going on it. That, and photography, which as you all know, I am IN LOVE with. I'm currently trying to find enough money to buy a DSLR (I've been dying to get one for a while) and to do a SummerStock show next year. I think I'll have to decide which one of those things I want to do in the end. And that will NOT be pretty.

I'll see you later Chikadillies.
