Hey y'all!
So this week has been kiiinda crazy. :) But a good crazy.
This Monday I was supposed to get my e-mail from the Virtual Learning Center saying that I can log in and do my orientation for the VLC courses I'm taking. however, since there were a TON of late arrivals, I'm not getting that e-mail until TOMORROW. So I have 2 days in which I have to cover everything I usually do in 5. Not fun. :(
OH well. :)
Plus, this Monday (in other words, two days ago) I had my first guitar lesson. :) I'm just doing chords, none of the classical stuff, and I really like it. ^_^ But my fingers ACHE. :( and i have white welts on my fingers where the calouses are forming. not fun.
But it's worth it! I can play anything in the key of G Major now. :) I'm so happy. lol we'll be adding a new key and couple of chords every week.
Plus, I got my SusieMagazine yesterday in the mail!!! :D Yay! I'm happy about it. ^_^
I won a free book from them called "Girl Perfect." It's really good. the first chapter is a bit descriptive, and so I'm letting my mom read it first... then she can tell me whether i'm allowed to read it or not.
So yeah! Katie did her first Figure Skating lesson this Monday too.. same time I was doing guitar. It isn't everything she wanted, but it's better than nothing!
Only at the beginning of class, since she hasn't been on the ice in months she fell right onto both of her knees. She now has a tensor bandage on one leg, and they're both very puffy and purple. :( Poor girl. She can barely walk up and down stairs!
Soooo that's about it. :) I updated ibeauty and completenewbieguide if you want to take a look at them. :)
also, if anyone wants to be added to my mailing list on any of my blogs tell me ASAP! Thanks!

We started school on Tuesday. Hmmph. =p My VLC courses start on Monday, and I'm reallly really excited because my friend twin Alison is doing it with me this year. =D It's gonna be awesome.
So Katie and I have discovered the beauty of the webcam. I did know it was there, and have used it for skype, but as of yesterday and today Katie and I have had three photoshoots, and have taken over 1500 pictures.

So what are you all up to? =)

Hey everyone!
In case you didn't know, I was away at a girl's camp for the last two weeks. sorry I didn't update! I just didn't have time!
Camp wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible. I had my breakdowns, since I don't like going to camp, but on the whole it was good. :) I learned how to do more things in windsurfing... and I only fell in once! (last year I fell in every 5 minutes approximately.)
also i learned that I LOVE.PAINTING. with watercolours. :) I made a really pretty picture of a beach scene with them. I might post a picture of it soon. :)
I almost wrote to the end of my journal... oops! lol I'm going to need a new one now. :) Man it's nice to be home.
thanks for all the comments and e-mails, guys! I love hearing from you!
I'll update ibeauty sometime in the near future.. hopefully.
I'm busy with getting ready to start school and everything, so give me some slack! lol
by the way, I converted livelovelaugh16 to loving pickles. go visit her blog. it's great. :)

All by myself...

Ok, so maybe not completey by myself.
Katie's gone for the weekend at a friends house, while mommy's gone with nana down to the states. :) so it's me and daddy for the next day and a half.
I can't say i really mind being practically alone in the house... no hearing mommy yell "Girls! Someone needs to wash dishes!" or "Laundrey time!"
lol
so something weird happened today... I slept in until 10.00! I never do that! :O I must be beginning to start the hibernation phase lots of teenagers go through... where they just sleep for 13 hours at a time. Lol
Last night, after dropping Katie at a friend's house out of town, Daddy and I were driving back, and the GPS said we shoul get home by 8.00 approximately.
it was wrong.
Unfortunately, GPSs can't see and pinpoint traffic jams. there had been a HUGE accident where a truck flipped and rolled off the road down, rolling about 15 feet down a hill! the truck was completely gone, and it was obvious the guy inside hadn't made it. he couldn't have. unless he jumped out before it crashed.
Because of all the fire trucks and ambulances etc, they had to take what is normally 3 lanes of highway and make it into 1 lane.
we were in traffic going about 5 kph for about 45 minutes. this NEVER happens where we live! It's always smooth going. we call having to wait to turn left bad traffic!
So we were pretty tired when we got home at 9.45. i passed out on the bed and then woke up about 12 hours later.
so here I am!
btw, if any of you guys have facebook, look up the application "Restauant City" by playfish. It is AWESOME! and addicting! extremely excellent entertainment.
there. I alliterated. ^_^
Ok so that's all for now!

Hey everyone!
I'm back from a camp that's near our house... we went the day I last posted, which must have been Sunday. ^_^ So we're back now! I'm really glad to be home, although we did have a great time.
We met an amazing family there who had a boat and tubes! They brought us tubing twice! The first time was with my cousin Alex, Katie, their daughter Blythe, and me. Alex and Katie weren't so good at the fast stuff, and while Alex was screaming I was going no-handed, hands behind my back and my legs crossed as if I was relaxing on a beach in Hawaii. Lol
That was on Katie's birthday. :) She's 12 now! as of Monday. Which most of you know already.
She says thanks for all the birthday wishes!
That night our friends Liam and Paul came up to the camp, and they were staying with their grandparents who have a trailer there. We were with them basically all day every day, since we really only get to see them during the summer and on New Years. Even though we live pretty close to each other. We're both just so busy.
But anyway, we played lots of board games... learned some new card games, taught some new card games, and I lost at president. Miserably.
I hate being scum. :(
Anyway, the second time we went tubing, it was Liam, Paul, Katie and me. Anne and Dan--the people who brought us out--had lots of fun too! Paul and I had a competition going: first one who flips loses!
I lost.
But when he was congratulating himself, he stood up in the tube, and started punching the air with his fists and did a faceplant into the water! It was HILARIOUS! We will never let him live it down. ^_^
At the end: Paul flipped seven times, I flipped five times, Katie flipped twice, and Liam only flipped once.
It was fun, but I'm glad we're home.
I'm about to go and update ibeauty... and in a couple days I'm posting the first chapter of my book if you guys want to see it. I'm just hoping if I get some people telling me that it's good I"ll be fired up to write more. :)
Have a great day!
