I love storms

It was a very nice memorial day becuase well it rained so I didn't have to march. I was very happy about that, so I just came home and slept for a long time it felt nice since I was exhausted from my rough week! haha its ok now though.

Saturday night my brother came home which was good. I didn't end up seeing him until sunday though because I was at Greg's house helping him out with his graduation stuff and looking at pictures. It was fun. Sunday I slept in some more becuase I was still super tired and then I worked on some chemistry and went to cession. That was fun also, but then I headed home and had a dinner with the fam. and I miss that. My brother left and I was stuck studying chemistry. Yick. I think I will do ok on my exam though, it is on Wednesday. I was bombarded with phone calls that night about the texas hold 'em... and I wish I knew how to play and I wish I wasn't doing stinkin chem. Then some large looking storms came and I had to go watch them come in by the beach(it is definitly nature in its works and I couldn't pass it up) with Greg... but his mom wouldn't let him go... so we just watched them from his house, and then I went home and did some more chem. That was kinda a bummer because they turned out to be wimpy, and it is always cooler to watch them from the beach, especially the lightning and stuff! I highly recommend going sometime, maybe with me! But anyways, his mom's intentions were probably good I bet... makes sense if a tornado came then there wouldn't be anywhere to go. Hmm!

Now it is Monday I think and I did a whole bunch of homework today. I sat on here doing chemistry, and my euro project, and I even read! The reading was hard though, I ended up falling asleep in the chair. Now I am just plain old tired and I am going to head to bed. Tomorrow I shall feel all refeshed and i'm even thinking about going for a run in the morning.... crazy huh! Well, good night, and peace out!

Catchin up!

Well I thought I better write since I haven't in a very long time! It has been a very rough week and I am so glad to finally get through it. Track is now finished for me as of today which is awesome. School is winding down, thank goodness because it is very stressful this week. Anneke and I had fun today though. We decided that we are going to go camping together sometime with Elbow! We are all really good friends, and get along so well! I love them dearly!

Hm something not good happened today. I got my first "talkin" to by a cop. Yes that was not good and I almost cried!! I was all shooken up, and I was going to Greg's house and his mom had to calm me down becuase I was shakin in my boots... plus my parents weren't home, so there was no one to comfort my scaredness! Hmm I wonder what the rents will say!! Ahhh well I need to get some sleep before I get any more stressed out! I am indeed a good driver... but I was just at the wrong place at the wrong time!

hmm Sunshine?

what a craZy day

yeah yesterday was insane. It started out to be just a really bad day and everyone was emotional, and exhausted from everything. We were just a wreck in school... so yes. just ick!

Then track came along. One of the reasons why we were all stressing out. Once our relay was over, things started to go uphill. Everyone did SOOO freaking awesome in their races. Jess got 3rd in her mile, I got 4th and we beat our times by 18 seconds... and we weren't even expected to place! Ha beat that!! Then Neckers got 5th in her 800, and that was awesome! The race of all was the 2 mile, when Leah and Danielle took 1-2... which is just amazing! They are going to state!! So our days all turned out to be excellent. Getting home at midnight is rough, but hey, we did it.

That's all for now

It was so awesome, I am just way excited. I got 6th place in the 2 mile with my best time ever and i feel really good about that! OH its just great to see everyone kick butt and want it so bad. That's all... it was just a good day!!

Sigh...

Well today didn't go as well as we expected for our relay. We had a good time for the most part, but we didn't improve, and we also didn't place how we wanted to. Zeeland and West Ottawa still beat us. We are just bummed out.

Yeah, haha, and I was making rice tonight, and I spilled the steam from the top of the pan on my foot and it hurt like a banchee!! Yeah, not good! Its ok now though. I am going to head out, I feel all stuffy... hopefully i'm not getting sick... I have my 2 mile tomorrow, regionals friday, and another champions meet or something on monday. So yeah, can't get sick!! Anyways... see yaz!

Cats and Dogs

Well before track, it was raining cats and dogs. Freezing cold too! So I wasn't looking forward to practice at all... there was a whole lot of complaining coming from me running in the rain. Luckily, the rain stopped at the perfect time, so I didn't have to do the hard workout in the pouring rain! Woo woo!

Big minus though... I'm getting a sore throat. I hope I don't get sick, because it is a very big week next week and yes, I can't afford it!! Well I have to work tomorrow morning with my dad at 7, and I think i'm going to be very very tired.

Greggo just asked me to hang out, so I am going to go chizzill with him for something to do. I will assure you that there will be no hurt pie... i'm not going for it. Later!!

Sunshine!!

Hm I know this is the 3rd one today... but...

I have to write about the storms! I love them. A Lot in fact. This makes me so happy that storms are coming!!!!! ahhh good stuff!! I am feeling better, I realize i'm a wuss when it comes to mouth hurtness.. but its ok now! Hahaha... and i'm excited Ellen found me paper bags. My mom couldn't find any at the store, so I use ellens, and I've used this one bag for about a week now. Good stuff! Well i'm headed out to wait for the storms to come in!!! =) Woo woo!!!

Perfect

Now my blog is all back to normal... but I'm hungry and I can't eat because i'm all numb... jeeeshh! hahaha ahhhh

Well today just wasn't a very good day!

I guess the beginning of the day wasn't so bad. I got an A on my math test so I am happy about that... but its hard not to think grades are over rated. Greg helped me study a whole lot for my euro test that I took today, and I understood like everything I swear... even when I took the test I understood it... and there were only 4 choices instead of 5. I just found out that I got another D on it... which makes me sad, I just want to mope about it. Then I got out of school early (big plus) and had to go to the dentist. They gave me 3 fillings so now my mouth is numb from the shots. Yeah everyone was laughing at me in track... and it was funny, but now it just hurts so i'm cranky! I am going to go for now... take a nap or something!!

Hullo

Well we had a great storm today. I was out on our boat with my dad and brother, fishing, when that huge storm came in. We had to floor it out of the channel, and by the time we got to the launching ramp, it was really dark and super windy. We could hear the thunder going, and it was lightening out!! There were actually caps on the water, so it was really hard to dock the boat and get it all set! But luckly we made it home safely...

Went to the relative's house today. It was fun, my family is pretty insane but funny! They just say some really random stuff, and i'm actually pretty calm over there! haha it was good stuff

As for everything else... I really don't know. Things just seem weird, and I feel like i'm at a point again where everything around me is changing... i'm really caught off guard. I just kinda don't know what to do about it.

That's all folks

On an island in the sun, we'll be playin and havin fun!

That sounds like a lot of fun, playing on an island in the sun... we've had so many cloudy days that its time for a sunny one! (eventhough it was yesterday!) I like the bright sunshiney days. They make me want to go outside and go rollerblade a long ways, bike ride, run, or even take my cool dog for a walk!

Right now though, its storming a little, and that just rocks too! I have been waiting for a storm to actually come, hoping that it would just ramble all day long and rain. Storms are just pretty!!! Plus when it lightenings that means that God got a strike when he was bowling. hehehe It looks for as of right now the storms are going to miss us, at least the big ones.

I enjoyed the weather yesterday. It was sunny when I went to practice, and kinda hot! The four of us cranked out 8 85 second quarter miles, tough, but we are all proud of our accomplishment.. and we are getting ready for WO... they are going down!!!! I saw ashley at the track yesterday, and that was a HUGE suprise, I didn't remember that she had a game friday! Sweet dude!

Then I went to look at some concrete with my mom that my dad poured. It looked good, and he does a very good job. Although, he was very upset becasue something happened and the whole thing shifted... and no one knows why because they measured it over and over. Sad to say, but the only thing that seems possible of what happened is that someone my dad was working with moved the blocks... but we don't really know. Its just a huge bummer

Then I went to greg's house and we watched Master and Commander. Let me just say that it's a very good thing that I didn't take the AP test because in the movie I didn't know what was going on... and its about waht we learned all this year in that class, hahaha. It was fun though. I think I am a little smarter from the movie, lets hope!! Then I got hungry, so we got food... that was that! He thinks that I have a bottomless pit... i'm always hungry!!!! It wasn't a big deal though, just hangin out

Well, that would be it for me. Nothing new, nothing old! I am a michigander... I like to talk about the weather!

A reason to start over new.... and the reason is you

Well this is a super good song, "The Reason" by Hoobastank. Ahhh.... I like it HUGELY! But anyways, when someone tells you part of the song that goes... "I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you " I think that they are trying to tell you something. At least that is the way it goes for me. The final show of Friends also did it. Come on, if you haven't watched the show then I won't give it away, but it turned out to be a good ending!! You probably have no idea where i'm going with this, but I am not going to say anything else about it. It's time for me to just stop talking!! Weird.........

YO YO

Hey everyone!

It was a usual day for me. I got a D- on my Euro test, suprise suprise! I am just not smart in that class... but I tried!!! Yeah grades... psh!

Um not much else. I honked at a cop today by accident becuase my hands accidently pushed the horn!!! Yeah, I looked dumb because I was pretending to wave out the window at someone... and uhh... there were no cars or anyone around! Hahaha. My mom thinks i'm a dork hahahaha! Ellen, don't worry, we will find someone!!!! Has to be extra cool and pass my test, so my eyes are peeled!! And sorry to hear about your car Dontrell!!! That's such a bummer! Maybe you'll win the lotto or something, then you could get a new car! Anyways, later!!

You're silly. Number 32 is just to look!! Goldfish memory people are kinda strange to me... but hey, I can still be cool with number 32. And the other one, well.... nah!! At least that is how it goes tonight. I am so tired though from running! I think I killed myself running 4 events. But the exciting part is I got under a 6 min mile!! First time ever!!!!!!!!!!!! Well i'm exhausted. Seee you!!

Life is not what I thought it was... 24 hours ago...

Hello!!!

What is up!! I am very wired right now, as always. I must say, I felt wired sunday night also! I felt that the free:cession went very good! I had fun, and everything that went on was sweet. VERY SWEET. I really like hanging out with everyone there, they are so much fun and I can really be myself!! that is worth 2 thumbs up!! yeah hahaha... especially cool

Track was pretty good today. It was nice and easy, and we had a good run! There was only a few of us that ran saturday that went out for a run with our coach, and the rest stayed back and worked hard with mrs. richardson. I felt bad though because Kyle Moreland died today, and everyone is sad about it. He was in marching band, but I never knew him actually. I hate it when young people have to go so quickly!! It sucks to see everyone upset, but with God they will be able to get through it. Be prayin for them...

Well, I have some laundry to do, and maybe study some more for my Euro test tomorrow. I hope I do good because I have really tried this chapter, but of course, i'm no good at history! Well have an awesome week. Much love!!!

Katie

Test.....

~*~*~*~

Hey everyone!

It's been a while for sure. I am up pretty early because I have to write half of my paper, and I have a busy day today! It will take me a long time to do, and hopefully I will get it all done. It is a must that I get it all done for sure!! We have our free cession today and i'm kinda nervous about it. I hope it's not boring or anything... I don't think it will be, but i'm still kinda scared! I have to get back to my paper, can't waste a minute! haha
