Wow...I'm so lousy!

It's been like 3 months since I've posted. And you better believe that A LOT has happened! First, I was in my very first play and I LOVED* it!(: I just love being with the drama club!!! Then school got out. And last month we went to Atlanta Fest. It was so. freakin. awesome!!! Casting Crowns are my absolute favorite and they freakin rocked there! I also discovered a new band named Anthem Lights! THAT is a band you need to look up! Then, this past week, I went to Jasper, Alabama with the Estuses for housesitting and I absolutely love the people there! I just wish I could have been able to spend the 4th of July here at my Nana and Papa's. And the last week of July, I'll be going for my 5th year of AIM Southeast Church Youth Camp. I love it every year! But of course, everyone goes to the beach while I spend 85% of my time at home doing nothing! I hate being poor :/. Well anyways, School starts next month and I'll be a sophomore! It seems like the worst year of high school so I'm not really looking forward to it. But anyways, I'm tired of typing and I dont think anyone even reads this dumb thing because, quite frankly, I don't even read it! So goodbye peeps (yes, that is the whitest kid ever trying to act gangster).

Stuff

Well of course, I haven't posted in a while. So here's what's been happening. During spring break, I did basically nothing except go to my cousins' house. Then I hadn't really done anything because I'm a loser. But Saturday, I went to StadiumFest in Birmingham and it was completely AMAZING! I even got a picture with Mark Hall from Casting Crowns AND an autograph!!!Toby Mac was also there, but that was the first time I've ever heard him (shocked right?) and he wasn't that bad, I just couldn't understand him. And since then, I've been trying to get a tighter relationship with God. Now our youth group is wanting to go to Atlanta Fest. It is reeeeeeally expensive though, so we will probably be fundraising all this month. But this Saturday, I'm going to the zoo with Morgan Tew(: and some other little kids from our Sunday School classes. ALSO, it's play season at ECHS! (: So I will be rehearsing every week (:. And above all that, it's Easter month, so the choir is wanting the teens to do stuff...and if there's something else, I'll think of it later...but here's the picture of Mark Hall and me and Abbey! (:

Good Week

I've had a pretty good week. It was graduation exam week. Before you freak out and think, "IS HE CRAZY??? HE LIKED TAKING TESTS ALL WEEK?", you need to know I didn't take them. The freshmen don't take them so we could either stay on the football field for five periods or check out after second period. Well, I checked out with Jordan Curlee with a bunch of other people. We had a BLAST! We are now addicted to Super Mario Brothers! But anyways...the Wild Game supper at the church is tomorrow. It helps raise money for the youth to go to camp. I get to serve food. That should be fun. I'm a little scared right now because I'm home alone because my parents are at a National Wildlife Turkey Federation (I think that's it) banquet and I did not want to go and Jacob's doing something with Abbey. I am so sick of her. I do not even care if she reads this. She spends all her time with Jacob and Courtney now and acts like we were never best friends. One time her and Jacob were fighting and she treated me like her best friend again but when they made up I was kicked to the curb. And ever since they started dating, I have only hung out with her (just me and her) once, and that was freaking TWO MONTHS after they started dating and she was texting him the whole time I could talk to her that night (because we saw a movie). I'm sick of it. I've played this game too many times with her and I'm done. It's just time for me to move on and just forget about her like she forgot about me. I've wasted too much time on her but not anymore.

Burnin'

Well today was fun! We burned our fields today! Apparently when you burn it, the junk that grows back is greener and prettier or something like that...but anyways I LOVE burning! Today I've burnt the most I've ever burnt! At one point it got too wild! Mama makes fun of me because I like to burn stuff a lot! Mostly because I almost burned down the house before BY ACCIDENT!!!! But anyways...it's all good! I had so much fun today though! Next weekend I'll be attending some kind of Kid's Day workshop at the art gallery but I think I'm going to have a chance to do something different than the kids. Then I just found out that there's and arts achievement appreciation night and the ones at Trumbauer will be attending (I am one of them)!!! I think that's all on my mind at the moment! Bye!!! (:

Winter Jam(:

Well, I just got back from the Winter Jam in Birmingham with my youth group! (: I grew up in a small church with a lot of old people and only a three person youth group, so I didn't know a single band there, so I really didn't want to go, but I am SOOO glad that I did! I heard a lot of great bands! I really liked KJ-52 and I LOVED RED's and the Newsboys's performances! It was sooooo great! I definately want to go again next year! I also got to see my lovely long lost Amber Jones that I haven't seen in two months!  Got church tomorrow with my wonderful youth group! (:

Fun Night (:

Well, tonight I went to the movies with the Estuses (: . Abbey, Mama Shar'n (my nickname for her), and I saw Sanctum...that is a really really really good movie! AND it's in 3D!!! You know what that means...I got some poppin nerdy glasses! I'm glad I finally got Abbey away from him and spend some time with me. Tonight was the first night we hung out together without him since they started dating. But I'm about to go to bed now because we have a fun day at church tomorrow from 2-5....come if you want to! Love ya'll!!!

What Is This World Coming To?

Things have been happening and they are NOT good! First of all, Auburn has had an undefeated season AND won the National Championship?!?!?! Hell MUST be freezing over! Then last week there was a drive-by in Eclectic and killed an six year old girl and injured a senior at my school. Then there was a bad shooting in Arizona that killed a BEAUTIFUL nine year old and severely injured a congresswoman. Then just late last night (from my understanding) a girl that already graduated (her brother is in the drama club with me and we know some of the family members) was stabbed fifteen times. Mother and I just got back from the hospital visiting her family. Please remember these people in your prayers!
