Want You Back

Missing my sissy :( She's always there for me and encourages me :) Long night talks in bed when mom and dad think we have gone to bed :p Two years older than me and practically the complete opposite of me. Yet I love her soo much and can't wait for her to come home. Life is very different with her 6 hours away at college in Erie, PA. Miss you Rachel :) <3 Come home soon!

:( No Sports

Sooo I fell down at practice on monday (no biggie) but had and still have this headache, and a little bit of dizziness. Scheduled doctors appointment and they tell me I can't play sports for 1 week. Including practices, running, tumbling, jumping, etc. No biggie considering I had a lax game today and one Friday :( And only if my headache is gone am I cleared to play again. This is not fun at all! Well I am thankful that I do not have a concussion and I am only off sports for 1 week - it could definitely be worse.

Hurt Little Ducky :(

Home Sweet Home

They're finally home! The seniors left 10 days ago to go to Europe for their senior trip. School was very very quiet and I couldn't talk or see any of them :( But today they came home and had soo many stories to tell. My best friends megs was soooo sooo happy and phil was right there to greet her and hug her tight :) Hunty was soo surprised to see me and was soo smiley :D It was sooo good to see them and drive home with them. The stories keep coming and I can't wait to hear some more. Hunty got me a BEAUTIFUL scarf from Rome gosh its very soft and its gorgeous if i didn't already mention that. He said that the cities were beautiful and it was hard to believe they were standing in and near and seeing these famous sites. Thats all for now until I hear some more :)

p.s oh and the time change threw off hunty so when he got in the car he thought that the sun was rising and he had a whole day to go through, he was very realized that he could go home and sleep...hehe awwwww hunty :)

Coffins With Legs?

Just finished practicing and recording a little skit for my literature class with the best group of guys. We had to pick a scene from the book Tale Of Two Cities and reenact it. So, naturally we chose the scene where a little boy gets smacked twice, a husband throws a boot at his wife, and a little bot gets chased by a large coffin (with legs?). We all went to Jerusalem Mill to do the filming, figuring it looked the most like pre-French Revolution England with all the old buildings and fields. From smacking to shouting, "flopping" to boot throwing and digging up a coffin to running from a screaming coffin with legs; we finished our skit/scene and laughed through the whole thing :) Once my friend nick finishes putting it together I'll put it up so you all can see :)

Germany...Immigrants..& Food

In History class we are learning about immigration to the United States in the late 19th century. We all had to choose a people group that immigrated to the U.S and do a small presentation on it, I chose Germany :) For part of the project we get find and make a recipe that that country would have eaten. Germany has a lot of things but whats better then soft pretzels (yes a German food) & berliners (or jelly filled, sugar coated donuts). In doing my project I found soo many interesting facts that I did not know. Most of the food we think of as American is actually German: hamburgers, hot dogs (and other sausages), and of course chocolate. The Christmas tree you put up every year is actually a German tradition, as well as gift-giving Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny :) So many interesting things I never knew. The Germans (of which i am part) are wonderful :)

Lax Practice....Frozen (first) one

WHOOOOO HOOOOO :) Today was the first lax practice of the season. From 4:15-6:15, from 35 degrees-25 degrees with wind, we made it through :) Being at lax creates a wonderful atmosphere; it was great to be able to be running (even though i hate running the most), catching, throwing, and playing defense again. Our teams a little rusty this year but no worries we can do it! Team work and communication are key, even in the freezing weather. But i am happy to say with numb butts, fingers, toes, faces, lips and a little bit of numb pain we made it through our first practice and i can't wait for our first game :)
