Music... life...

So yeah, its finally thanksgiving break! i'm so excited because we have a whole week off from school! YEAH! FREEDOM! but anyway, i figured i would try to blog a bit more... i mean, not everyone reads this, but its still fun to blog anyway, hopefully no one gets bored of me doing it! but yeah, i've been going to the movies a lot this week, i've seen two movies actually... fred claus and dan in real life, both were good movies, but when i go to the movies, i always listen to the music in the background... which leads up to my question...

What is currently your favorite song?

(Mine currently is What if His People Prayed by Casting Crowns)

Lights, Camera, Action?

So yeah, in sunday school today, we found out that we get to do this play thing as one of our "buckle it in" things, so we've been working out a skit/play/production thing... i think it could turn out pretty cool and stuff, but we'll see... so yeah, this made me think of my next question.

Who is your favorite actor/actress?

I'm almost as bad as Aaron...

So yeah, wow, I realized that I definitely don't know how to maintain a blog because I'm really bad at posting more than 1 time a month. We'll try to keep it up though, its so much fun posting! So yeah, lots of stuff has happened in the last month, I think. It would take too much time to write down what has happened, especially since most of it is school, which I am currently in right now. I'm actually in Chemistry... ;D (rachel and kay know how much "inspiration" i get from chem) but yeah, I just finished taking 3 quizzes, so we have free time! So yeah. actually. tonight should be really fun because a ton of my friends and I are going laser tagging with the youth group... like... hm... kelsey, bethany, dan, scotty, brock, logan, josh, and joey... i think thats it... yup that sounds good! but yeah, i'm gonna whoop them all! yay me! *ahem* just kidding, we're going to have fun, then go back to church and listen to aaron give us a "short" devotion, then CTF! or FT! yay! ok... so yeah, after all that, here is my random question for the day... its kinda funny because it has nothing to do with my post at all! yesh...

Do you find that facebook is the one site that you go to the most? (and why?)

It's too warm for October...

Well, now that my beloved Cubs are no longer in the run for the World Series... I guess i can't really talk about them... but I can still talk about the Packers, who, although they lost to the Bears, still have the better record... :D , but yeah, anyway... here's the question for the day... (I'm doing this one for Marissa)

Have you ever worn picknick baskets as shoes?

Fall Already?!

So yeah, it's definitely been almost two months since I've posted on here, so I thought I'd update everyone on how school has been so far. I can't complain, school has been pretty good, and I'm doing well in all my classes... yay me! lol, anyway, I have been super busy with school, band, church, friends and all that fun stuff. homecoming was cool (except our football team lost... *cries*) so its been pretty good the last 2 months... and now that it's fall, there is one thing that most everybody is watching (especially me!)... baseball playoffs! I have to say that this year I'm really into the playoffs because my favorite team is in! Go Chicago Cubs! It's definitely cool because I really want them to win! I mean, come on, its been 99 years since they're last win, so they deserve it! (for those of you who aren't Cubs fans, I'm sorry, you need to pick better teams... :D) Also besides baseball, football has begun, and I have to say that my Green Bay Packers are doing AMAZING!!!!! They are currently 4-0... they haven't lost yet!!!! *tear tear* I'm so proud! ok well enough with my gabbing, here is a question...

Do you think the Cubs will win the World Series this year?

Complete Klutz?

Hey again! I've noticed that I have problems posting... maybe its because I always forget... I hope I can remember to post more when school *GASPS* starts, but I can't guarentee anything... :(

anyway, here's a question.

Have you ever tripped over nothing?

(Because I have done it so many times, I've lost track... )

Back From Down Under... Mississippi!

So yeah, I haven't been on here very much in the past month. I blame Aaron... Just kidding...

I just wanted to post a little bit on what has been happening in the past month since I've been gone. Mississippi is the biggest thing. I can't even begin to describe how incredibly awesome it was being down there, and I would just like to say for the record that I would totally do it again!

I would blog more about Mississippi and all the good times we had down there, but I'm pretty sure Aaron has covered most of it... and if you don't believe me you can check out his blog www.centralbiblechurchyouth.blogspot.com

so besides that, I have officially finished up drivers ed. and now I just have to drive for 25 more hours... maybe if i drive to Mississippi and back I'll be done... :D

so yeah, since I've haven't blogged for my viewers in about a month, I decided to dedicate a question to my blog about Mississippi!

Do the pigs in Mississippi snort with a southern accent?

(is there a drawl in the noise a pig makes... and why do they smell so bad?!?!)

Me? Slap-happy? Never...

So I was lucky enough to go to the midnight premiere of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, and I just have to say that it was amazing. It was so close to the book, so it should have made fans happy. I can say I enjoyed it so much and I would totally go back and see it again and again; I just wish more of my friends were into the whole "HP" (Harry Potter) thing because it is more fun when your friends go. Besides that, the only bad thing was that it was at midnight, and if you know me, you will know that I can get quite slap happy when I don't get a sufficient amount of sleep... which leads to my question...

What is the weirdest thing you have done when you are slap happy?

(mine would have to be when Kathleen said, "I want a hippopotoma for Hannakus..." and I ran up two stories to go tell my parents at 11:00 pm... they weren't too thrilled... then Kathleen tripped down the stairs... which made me laugh more...)

Crazy Trips...

Yeah, when we were in North Carolina we did some crazy stuff... like scream whenever the Jonas Brothers came on tv... or skim the beach for cute guys... or boogie board on killer waves and name the waves after the Jonas Brothers... if you want to know about the naming of the waves ask me or kathleen, yeah our parents made fun of us the whole time about liking the Jonas Brothers... hm... what else did we do... well tons of stuff I guess... we went to see a "moon rise" which was interesting... we celebrated the 5th of July, or at least Johnny did... he screamed when people were lighting fireworks on the 5th and he was like "HAPPY 5TH OF JULY!!!!!!!!!!!!"... yeah, it was so much fun... anyway... here's a question...

Have you ever bought ice cream, but it was really hot when you were eating it, so you left an ice cream trail?

(cuz i did that, and then i spilled it on myself)

Dreaming...

(Mine would have to be where I was driving to school with Nick Jonas, and I asked where Joe and Kevin were and all of a sudden they popped up from the passenger's seat. I said hi to Joe, and he took off his "joe-hawk" and he had bright blonde hair... I think I watched way to much Hannah Montana that day...)

What is the weirdest dream you have had?
