Hello From Arkansas

Hey guys! We got here (Arkansas) yesterday. Yup. It's true. Today, we went swimming and that was fun. This time I remembered sun screen (thanks to my mom) so I won't have that horrible burn like last time I went swimming here (about a week or two ago).

I've been texting Luke's friend (I guess technically my friend too) Craig like all day lol. Allison and my cousin Lauren are here in the same room with me also on computers, and we're all emailing eachother lol. It's fun. Especially since I am in the mood for typing.

I took two different quizzes on facebook to see how well i knew Twilight (they were supposed to be really hard and they sorta were...) and they said I was an expert at Twilight lol. I've read the first book almost 4 times, then second one twice, and the third and fourth once. I also took a quiz to see which Twilight character and I got Edward! Ew! I don't like Edward.. well I do sorta, but Jacob is SOO much better. :) As you can see my "Team Jacob" sparkly picture over there on my sidebar -->>

I took another quiz to see what decade i should have been born in and I got 1980's the first time, but when I looked back over it, some of the answers weren't really that accurate.. so i did it again and got 1970's, which is sorta what I wanted :) Disco! *dances*

Sometime later today, my dad and my aunt, cousin, and my aunt's boyfriend are supposed to be coming here. My dad didn't come yesterday cause he had to work yesterday (his shift at his job is from 2pm-11pm so we don't get to see him that much ): ).

Guess who will be at my house Monday-Friday that I haven't seen since last August?? MY BFF JANA!!!!!! I can't WAIT!! We have like so much planned :) Don't worry I'll be posting during the week and keep you updated on what me and her are doing :)

I have Jason Mraz's song I'm Yours stuck in my head... Just the beggining though. Not that you guys would care, lol. I'm just typing random stuff here. Earlier this morning, when we were swimming in the pool, there were some worker guys working on the house (about 20 feet away from the pool) and me, Stephanie, Allison, and Lauren were swimming in circles singing (really loud) random songs like Mary Had a Little Lamb, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, the ABC's, Hakuna Matata (a very awesome song), and Best of Both Worlds (hannah montana). And then we came up with our own song (I wrote it) and we sang it loud enough so the workers could here us. Sing this to the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star:

Two, two workers on the house.
List-e-ning to this song.
I hope I'm not annoying you
I hope I am entertaining you
Two, two workers on the house,
List-e-ning to this song.

Isn't it awesome? And I wrote it all myself :) I wonder what the workers were thinking... we sang until finally mom yelled at us to stop. So we had to :( Sad story, ain't it? But it was fun while it lasted. We wanted to make a whirl pool in the pool (where else?) and so while we were all going around, and around, and around; I started singing Hakuna Matata on the top of my lungs, and then Stephanie and Lauren joined in (but not as loud as me. I don't think anyone could get that loud), and it was so much fun. I bet it sounded horrible though since I was singing it so loud. By the way, I was only singing the only part I know lol:

Hakuna Matata
What a wonderful phraaaaase
Hakuna Matata
Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries
for the rest of your days
It's our problem freeee
Phiilooosiphyyyyyyyyy
.......*dramatic pause*........
HAKUNA MATATA
...............
HAAAKUNNAA MATATAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!
Hakuna
Matata
Hakuna
Matata
Hakuna
Matata

And so on until I decided to stop. Pretty cool, huh? You should try it sometime. ha ha. Sorry I feel like really random right now and just feel like typing whatever I think of.

What's a motto?
Nothing. What's a-motto with you?

Omg you have to go to this website (http://www.lionking.org/lyrics/OBCR/HakunaMatata.html) and read the lyrics to HM. it's so funny. BTW that HM does not stand for Hannah Montana but for Hakuna Matata.

Ok well this post is really meaningless and probably boring for you, so I will quit this post RIGHT now.

Ok now.

Ok, seriously, I'm done now.


Until next time, my friends!

Quickly catching up on things

Well, I need to finish catching up on everything that happened in August, so here I go:


August 6th: Stephanie and Allison came over one day and spent the night! That was a lot of fun. We got a piece of wood, and wrote on it 'No Swimming' and drew a person swimming and crossed it out. We wanted to go swimming and hold the sign up and take a picture. The other side of the wood, we wrote 'no diving' and drew a person diving and crossed it out. We ended up going swimming (the next day), but we forgot to get the sign, so instead we stuck it on top of the toilet. :D



August 7th, Me, Adam, Luke, Stephanie, Allison, and Luke's friend Craig all went swimming in our lake. It took forever before Craig got in. Me and Luke swam to where he was standing on the shore, and pulled him in.


After we finished swimming, Luke's two friends Jonathan and Lexi came over. We all hung out in the living room for a long time, until Stephanie and Allison had to go home. So Craig, Lexi, and Jonathan left, and Luke went with mom to take Stephanie and Allison home.





NEXT!


August 7th: That night, my mom and I went to a small theatre, and we were ushers! We handed out programs as people came in, and we got to watch the play! It was High School Musical. I think their performance was better than the movie! It was soooo funny! The person who play Ryan was HILARIOUS. After the show, the cast came out back, and everyone got to meet them. I got (I'll use their play names) Ryan's, Sharpey's, and Gabriella's autographs. :D I had a good time. :)




NEXT!!




August 8th: Well, since Crayon, Mikaela, and Polo (all the puppies I wanted to foster) got adopted, we decided to foster Jessica. :) Jessica is a 1 year old, brindle female pit bull mix. She (along with Ranger and Amy) is the BEST dog EVER! I want to adopt her, but mom and dad said only two dogs at a time *rolls eyes*. She is a little bit smaller than Amy, and is so cool. In the mornings when mom comes to wake us kids up, she follows her upstairs into our rooms and just follows mom everywhere around the house. Sometimes she can get VERY hyper, it's so funny. She loves Ranger and Amy, but Ranger doesn't really like her that much. She and Amy play a lot. I've taught her to sit, shake (with both paws *wink*), lay, and basically rollover. And I'm working on stay. I will post a slide show of her later. I also have several videos of her, I'll try to post later.



NEXT:



August 10th: I was walking Jessica by the lake (barefoot) when she jumped away and slipped out of her collar. I jumped after her, and my right pinkie toe hit a stump. I fell down, and quickly put the leash around Jessica's neck and put her collar back on. I was in a lot of pain (my toe). I sat out there for like 30 minutes before I finally slowly scooted on my rear up to the house which was kinda a long way to scoot. I didn't walk on that foot for like a week, and I figured I broke my toe. I didn't walk on it until you read another paragraph.

August 14th: My youth pastor's wife Andrea had her first baby Kaylee Grace *******!! She was born 10 days before her due date. The next Thursday, mom, Luke, Adam, and I went to see her. She's so tiny and cute!!!


NEXT:


August 16th: The animal shelter held a 'Pet's in the Park' thing at some place. They had a tent with things to sell, and they brought some of their dogs (we brought Jessica). They got k9 police men to come and do a demonstration. They had a dog sniff out marijuana in a car. It took him a while, cause there was a lot of people and other dogs around, and he gets a little bit distracted. I filmed that, so I will post it on here ASAP. The video is on the other computer (I'm on the laptop), so I'll have to wait till I can get on there. But a lot of people showed up at the 'pet's in the park' thing, and brought a lot of dogs. I saw soo many different breeds, and some funny costumes, I'll post pictures later.

They had a small dog show too. Only two dogs entered the tricks contest, and only one did tricks! LOL! It was pretty obvious on the biggest dog smallest dog. The biggest dog was a really fluffy Samoyed, and the smallest dog was a 4 month old teacup poodle in a tutu. She was so cute!


NEXT:


August 26th: At 9:30pm this day, my piano/voice teacher Mrs. Mica, had her first baby, Maci Renee ****. I haven't seen her yet, but I can't wait to see what she looks like. She was 3 weeks early. Her due date wasn't until September 14th.

August 30th (today): GUESS WHAT!?!? My friend and her brother (Luke's friend) live in Florida, and Luke and I are going to fly by ourselves to visit them!! We leave tomorrow, and will be back Friday. We will have to switch plans in North Carolina. I'm so excited. It's one of many adventures ahead of me.
One flight mom found would have taken us to Michigan, then to Flordia. CRAZY!!

I will take my journal with me on the trip like I did when I went to Utah, and write in it everyday, so I can tell you about all the fun I had on this adventure. Speaking of Utah, I still haven't posted pictures from my trip there. I need to do that.

I have to go pack, and do some stuff, so TTYL!!!

FREAKING OUT/swimming/other blog

I'm freaking out people! FREAKING OUT!!! I've been posting a LOT lately, but.. but.. hardly anybody if nobody has been commenting! :( *cries*. HOW COULD YOU! jk.


Oh! Go to my Training Valley Blog. I did another post. And don't forget to vote on the polls!!!


Yesterday, I went over to Zoe's to go swimming with Adam, Addie, Zoe, Amy, and Nivek. It was fun! I got to try the jumping on the trampoline and into the pool thingy! Zoe was right. It's not THAT much fun. But watching Adam and Nivek doing flips, cartwheel-like things, and other stuff from it was pretty coolio!!

I tried a LOT to get Nivek underwater (dunking I mean..). But dunking is not my specialty. It was kind of funny actually. He would just stand there, and I'd pull on him as hard as I could in any direction. Didn't work.

At one point, I was on the deck, and I ran and attempted to jump on a ski bob. But instead of success, I got a small bruise on my right leg. LOL.
