Long time, No talk.

So basically, its been forever since I have written a blog, and I can't really remember how long it has been.



Probably in the last few weeks a lot of stuff has happened but I don't remember hardly any of it. This week is going to end my last football season as a cheerleader, and I am kind of feeling kind of depressed. Its crazy to think that in less than 4 days, my cheerleading days are over. As well as it being my last game it is also Senior night, which makes it even more sad. I never realized how much the last day of cheering actually bothers a Senior cheerleader, even last year with only having one Senior, she was so affected by it, and I have a feeling I will be too. Thursday will also be my last pep rally...ever. I know that most people do not care about stuff like that but for me, and I believe for the rest of the girls we are ending a season that we hate to love and ending a season of all of us being together. Its almost like a wake up call that says "Hey, you're growing up! Are you ready?"



School is easy. I seriously never thought my Senior year would be this easy and I actually kind of miss being forced to do my homework and it being a grade and working hard to try and make things happen the way that I want. Now, it just all comes easily and I don't really have to try, it just happens to be the best for me.



Although everything is good at school, home and every where else I have decided that my church needs help, and now I am going to do my best to help and make the church a better place to go. We had a meeting to discuss this with the Seniors and we all finally came together, and I seriously loved all of it. This was the first time we had all been together pretty much since camp, and it was as though nothing was different. We all talked, laughed and had fun and ended up leaving on the same page. I thought it was something that was going to be awkward and difficult but it was the complete opposite. I left feeling as though things were going to get better, but its honestly up to us to make it get that way.



In the next few weeks my church is having Katalyst weekend which I am quite excited for. We found out that all of the Seniors, boys and girls, are going to be together in the same house! This hasn't happened since my sisters' Senior year, and I truly think it will be a good experience to bring all of us together and to allow all of us to almost have the same mind. But I also think it is essential because we are never together and it will bring the boys and girls together as a class instead of us being strong as a boy group and a girl group. But it really is not so good because my cousin's wedding is on Saturday and we have to attend the rehearsal dinner on Friday night. So I will miss most of Friday night, and most of Saturday night, but you win some you lose some, what can you do?! Plus, I already missed my other cousins wedding and I really don't want to miss the next one, it just sucks because I won't be able to get all out of it that I really wanted but like I said, you can't always get what you want.



I think this is all I have to say, and its all that is on my mind for now.

Oh and I applied to...

A Weekend to Remember

Its funny when you are in your 2nd six weeks of your senior year in high school and already visiting colleges.

I went to Baylor this weekend to visit the campus and see the people that I haven't seen in forever. Baylor is my dream school, the one that I have wanted to go to for a while and have only been there to visit one time. This visit was different, it honestly changed my view of where I wanted to be and what I wanted to do. I still want to be a Pharmacist but I don't know where it is that I am supposed to go to school. Everyone can choose to go to whatever college without a problem, and it feels like I have no idea where to even begin to go.

Sunday night I spent some time with my cousin at dinner and ended up spending the rest of the night with one of my good friends. I got a tour of the dorms that night and ended up going out in the middle of nowhere to look at stars. I loved that night and then the next morning seemed like it was going so slow.

Nothing else was that exciting, I just realized I have to learn what it is that I want from a college and I don't know what that is.

The things that can happen in a week.

Its funny when you think that things are going so well only to have it end up that they are going so wrong.

Last Monday everything was going great, I was helping Mario with his Tiger Tails and watching Heroes, getting excited for the upcoming week. When, my sister called and I got the most horrible news I had heard in a while. I found out that a lady that I treated like my grandma had passed away, and she was one of my good friends grandma. I had no idea what to do, all I did was just cry, and Mario didn't know how to respond. I texted the guy that this was going to affect and got no response, but his sister was grateful that I was there for her. Tuesday seemed to go by so slow, almost like it was never going to end. I played in a tennis match against GP and we beat them 17 to 2. Wednesday was slowly getting better until I got a text from the guy that lost his grandma asking me if I could hang out because he had just came in from Baylor and he didn't want to be at home. We hung out until around 11 that night, just sitting in silence and talking every now and then.

Thursday was when the whole week started to change. I had to go to the viewing and I stood in line for a good hour before I could leave. Then, Lexy and I had to go to the City Council meeting for our history grade then to Starbucks to finish our questions. We left there and started to plan the cars we were going to "tag" for the Irving vs. Nimitz game. I left my house around 10:30 to pick up Shayla and Amy to go "tag" Ross, Barrett, Tyler, Jacob and Tyler Lear's trucks/cars for the game, putting Viking stuff around them and Irving stuff, they weren't to happy. Friday wasn't so bad...but it wasn't so great either. We had fun at the pep rally with the glitter and the atmosphere but we lost the game 27-0.

I had to take the SAT on Saturday at GP, my mom and sister went to Houston for my cousin's wedding shower, they came back on Sunday and I did nothing on Saturday, for the first time in awhile. Except, I went to Sonic and talked to Glen, which led him toasking me to homecoming because the girl he was going to take can't go. I was shocked and freaking out because the boys that I know there didn't want me going because they all think that I'm too good for them? I don't know. So, I call my sister and the problem is that I don't hav e my other dress because my best friend is borrowing it for her homecoming that is on the same night. So, my cousin is letting me borrow her dress, my friend is going to see if I want to try on her dress and I am going to continue to freak out until after Saturday night.

Sunday was when everything seemed to turn...My best friend Tyler texted me around 4:20 to tell me that his grandma had died and he didn't know what to do. He told me he wanted to be alone but I knew that he really didn't. I left him alone, not texting him or anything unti he decided he didn't want to be at home when he texted me and told me he was coming over to my house. He stayed until 10ish and decided he needed to go home, but we watched "The Notebook" because it is his favorite movie, not even joking and that made him feel a little better.

This week will be interesting because of I am supposed to go down to Baylor on Sunday until Monday and see one of my friends and my cousin. But, you never know what could happen in a week.

Boring Life.

I can't even remember last week, its been that long. I got my schedule changed out of Accounting luckily because I hated that class and am now taking Lab Aid which is good because it keeps me from ever having homework and getting all the college stuff done that I need to finish. I go to PALS today for the first time which should be fun because the teacher I am working with is pretty cool.

The game on Friday against SGP was absolutely horrible, we lost 27 or 28 to 0, the field is horrible to cheer at and our fans were not so nice to the players or to the cheerleaders. We had a 5th quarter after which wasn't too bad but we stopped by Sonic to get some food and basically all of Irving was there and Laci and I were still in our uniform and so they asked so much stuff and I felt so stupid but the football players that were there said that the game this Friday will be interesting to see who wins, that was kind of encouraging. Saturday night I finally had my family birthday party with more food than someone should ever eat and my cake was AMAZING! I got Burberry perfume that I have never even smelt and it is incredible. I got money and a gift card which totally made my life since I HAVE NO MONEY, because I have NO time for a job, so I don't get money except my allowance which I don't do anything to get it so its kind of pathetic.

All in all, I had a pretty boring week last week but this week will be interesting to say the least. We play GP in a tennis match tomorrow, I have a city council meeting I have to get too on Thursday and finish everything for it to turn in on Friday. I have a book report to give on Wednesday and I haven't even started reading the book, I take the SAT on Saturday after a football game and I have to make Tiger Tails for the football players by Thursday.

Its going to be busy and interesting. :D

Oh, the fun!

This weekend was crazy...I think that is the only way to describe it.

Friday night was a night to remember, literally. The homecoming game started off winning within the first two minutes of the game we were up by 7. But of course, the other team always has to come back and beat us, no matter what. Lou Lou Rice was crowned Homecoming Queen, which was the best thing ever since she is the sweetest girl I know. We lost the game 51-27, I think. I stopped watching the clock after the 3rd quarter because I didn't want to see us lose, again. But, the first string starters were taken out in the beginning of the 4th, we had a fight during our Alma Mater and Coach Hohenburger has continued to ask the cheerleaders to be at the Field House before the football players get back so that we can cheer them on. So now, after every game we rush to get to school just so that we can beat the players back, even when we lose. We started to cheer for them as soon as Coach got off of the bus, chanting and cheering, not being obnoxious just basically showing our support even after a loss. Some of the guys were respectful and enjoyed having us be there so they know that we are behind them 100%, but the others were solomn, not wanting us to even show that we liked the game, telling us to stop clapping because they didn't deserve it. That made us mad and we basically wanted to stop doing anything and everything for them because we were upset. We walked in our locker room and decided that we weren't going to do anything for them again because of how much they didn't care if we were even there to support them at all.

Saturday was a rushed and crazy day. I got up after a long night to go and help decorate for Be True to Your School, which is a huge pep rally at my church for the whole community. I planned on staying until 11, ended up staying until 12. I had to help hang the banners and got pulled in to helping the band practice for the next day, which pulled me in to sing the next morning with Jacob. When I left I had to go and mow my grandpa's yard and didn't end up getting home until 2:20, had to go tan and got done with that at 2:50 and had to meet up with Tyler to get his tie for homecoming at 3:00. I got home at 3:30, took a shower and was ready to go by 5:50. It was crazy! I felt like I had no down time, and the only thing I wanted to do was take a nap. We took pictures and left to meet up with Shayla and Brian at her house, left her house went to pick up Tori and Mario, met up with the parents at the Duck pond in North Irving to take pictures. Mario and Tori left to go eat with another group while Shayla, Brian, Tyler and I went to Benihana and had a lot of fun. We left there and went to the dance, I fully expected to dance, but I am not such a good dancer so that didn't work out so well but we watched and danced toward the end. Manny Armijo won Homecoming King, I really thought that John was going to get it but that was ok. We left and had planned on going to Main Event but changed our minds because we didn't want to spend that much money so instead we went racing and then back to my house for an ice cream party. Random right?! Everyone stayed at my house until 1:30 and I had to stay up to wait for any girls that were going to be coming to my house for Be True to Your School the next morning. Only one girl showed up at 2:00 and we ate and went to sleep at 3. Got up at 7:15 the next morning, went and cheered/sang/danced at Be True to your school. We did well, but couldn't do our dance because the CD player messed up which was fine because I didn't even care. Our drumline had a drum off against Mac and of course we won. They tried doing our songs but they just made it sound ghetto and loud, not actually better. I went home and went to sleep until 5:45, watched the Cowboys game and went to sleep again. I did no homework by the way.

You know what I realized, my Senior year is actually easy and pretty much a blow off. I didn't actually think that, but I seriously don't do anything all day. Its crazy.

This is really long, but hey, I really don't have anything else to do...except this for your class.
And I kind of like it by the way.

Do you read all of it?

September 15, 2008

It's my first time to blog, so I do not really know what to put.

Today is my 18th birthday. I seriously doubt that I feel any different, but yet some how I kind of do.

Its the fourth week of my Senior year, and already things are going pretty fast. Homecoming is on Saturday and I am still not ready for my last Homecoming ever! I am so ready and excited, but I am still kind of thinking that everything is just too fast. Every friday night seems to go by faster and faster, watching the clock on the football field is like every minute the game is about to end, and my high school life is coming even closer to an end. Its weird to think that way, but yet its so true. Its going to be weird when football season is over, the fans are gone, and school is just week by week trying to get better but it only seems like it is getting slower and not going anywhere. I have never had so many decisions to make in one year, much less in a couple of months.

Tennis is going well, 3-1 including non-district. Cheerleading isn't so great...constantly fighting with a coach isn't so wonderful...even if you think it might be. haha!

This week in reverse:
Everyday went by slow to start off. I was asked to be on the District Improvement Committee, the tennis match we were supposed to have against Irving on Tuesday got moved to Wednesday because of the rain which then got moved to Friday because it started to rain and we couldn't play Thursday because JV was playing and because Irving had a football game. I had a pep rally Friday, so I came out after to play, ended up that the girl I was supposed to play is also a cheerleader so she wasn't there, so I didn't get to play and supposedly I am going to play today, but I don't know that for sure. The pep rally was alright, still not the best but my mom was there and that made it all better. I had never had someone come just for me, and most of the other girls had, so I kind of felt special knowing that I had someone in the crowd that was there just for me. Friday night Jeremy Delorge and Brandon came over and watched Transformers until 2, and as tired as I was, I stayed up with them to watch it. Saturday I went with my mom and sister to take my dog to the vet because it was going to rain and I am actually afraid of storms, so I got up early to do that. Saturday night, we celebrated my birthday...ish. Tyler, Shayla, Brendan and my sister went to Krispy Kreme, got rear-ended but nothing happened, played Lunar Golf at Grapevine Mills and got a shake from Steak and Shake. Seriously the most fattening I have ever felt. But it was my birthday, and Tyler said I had a right to eat whatever I wanted, so I did. Sunday we went to church, decorated Tyler's car, and went to Discipleship where they had an Ice Cream cake just for me! That is pretty much my week in reverse.

And the only reason I am writing this is because it is for a grade, otherwise I wouldn't write at all :D
