ok, I am going to post about Awakening Fest..hopefully with pictures!! soon. when I have time. and hopefully I won't forget. :)
This is a copy of an e-mail to a friend...I thought why re-type everything? I just took out the really personal stuff. :)
Ok so we get there..blah blah blah...my mom is the head of the nursery...I tryed to go into the big room, but the doors to get in were locked so I had to wait....and then Sam said that she thought she knew the way..and thank goodness she did cause I really didn't want to get lost in there. I would never find my way out!! They would find me days later starving from only eating mints....
Anyways, I walked in...and walked over to where Michael, Ashley, Ashley W, and Mandy were standing. First thing I noticed was Michael's hair...I said, "Wow! We have the same haircut!" He said, "no...your's is longer.." But really our hair looks alot alike. weird. Mandy looks really summery with her blonde highlights. Ashley W. looked like Ashley W. Ashley (Mike's sister) looked the same. We found out that our class was going to be cooking. I was really really excited cause I LOVE to cook..and plus that meant I would do really well...and also there probably wouldn't be any homework. :)
Oh yeah, a boy named John who was here last year is in our class too, and so is this kid named Josh...he wasn't here last year. But josh isn't really in our class...more about that later.
We walked to the Annex, I walked with Ashley. Our teachers are Mrs. Shelly who helped w/ art last fall and this other lady whose named I can't remember. We made Lasana and Salad. Then we got to eat it. Actully we didn't get to eat the one we made cause it would take too long to cook. Instead we ate one Mrs. Shelly made. yummy!! and we had bread with it. And soda.
While we were cooking, Ashley W. says, "oh yeah, my brother is coming for P.E." I thought that meant just for that one time but after we ate we went outside and Ashley's brother starts talking about how he's going to be doing P.E. with us. Coolness!! He's really nice and fun.
We played Dodge Ball. I had Ashley (mike's sister) and Josh and some junior highers on my team. First round: I'm out before I was even in. somehow I ended up across from Mike so when I ran up for the ball, he grabbed it and poked me with it. great. we won that round. 2nd round: I stayed in alittle longer. we won again. 3rd round: stayed in even longer. go me!! we lost though. :( 4th round: I was doing great. dodging mike's balls left and right...he seemed to have it in for me. yeesh! then he threw it and it was coming toward my knee...I tried jumping out of the way...but it hit. :( we won that round.
Sometime during all that, Josh said something about something...not sure...but anyway what came out was that he isn't really in the high school class. He's in the 8th grade and thus is supposed to be in the junior high class. Not that I blame him for wanting to be in our class...mmm...cooking or presidents and current events...mmmm not a hard choice. he was nice and won 2 of the rounds all by himself.
When we started walking back I asked Mike about his gf...he said all was well. (my words) but the convo ended there. I ended up walking with his sister. She's really nice and I think I could become pretty good friends with her..she's really quiet which is great since I'm loud. :)
anyways all in all it was a nice start to D-days. |
