Why I loved Memorial Day weekend

1. I made it to state!!! :]
2. I finally got motivated enough to go out and take some senior pictures.
3. I cleaned out my car for the first time in ages.
4. I had the opportunity to do nothing for the first time in ages :]
5. I went running - on my own!
6. The ever looming graduation date is a few days closer.
7. I finally secured a prom date...thank God.
8. I fixed many things in my life.
9. I went to Clear Lake, sat in a 200 degree sauna, and sunbathed on the dock.
10. I regained a bit of trust in mankind.
11. I got to catch up with Chanel after her trip to the Cayman Islands.
12. My mom's car has an iPod port so I can not worry about mix CDs.
13. Campfires are the best.
14. My mommy took me to Express and we went a bit nuts.
15. I didn't do any homework - and it was fantastic...until tonight, when I had to do it all.

Wooooo!

Oh hai.
Just thought I'd drop in to say that:

I'M GOING TO STATE!!!!

I'm pretty excited, if you can't tell. Especially because it's what I've been working towards for three seasons. This is what I've wanted.

I'm jumping next Saturday at 10am for my last "hoorah!" as an Emerald Ridge track athlete.

14 reasons I hate rain

1. It makes freshly cut grass smell yucky.
2. It is May 19.
3. It soaks through my clothes at track.
4. My hair is naturally a mess of frizz and curl.
5. High jump pits get really disgusting & soggy.
6. It makes everything smell gross if you go from outside to inside without changing RIGHT away.
7. It's just dreary.
8. It ruins rollerblading plans.
9. Sticking your arm outside the window when going through drive-throughs gets your money (and your arm) all wet.
10. If your jeans are just a BIT too long, they get all nasty on the bottom.
11. Taking pictures is difficult without a really expensive waterproof lens.
12. It makes me squint when I run.
13. It can feel like a shower, only you don't feel clean after you're done.
14. I just do.

Mrr :[

Thank you Taylor Swift. Thank you for appealing to 13-year-olds and writing music that applies to my sad, sad life.
I promise, this will be my last emo blog for a long time...


All this time I was wasting
Hoping you would come around
I've been giving out chances every time
And all you do is let me down

And it's taking me this long
Baby but I figured you out
And you're thinking we'll be fine again
But not this time around

You don't have to call anymore
I won't pick up the phone
This is the last straw
Don't wanna hurt anymore

And you can say that you're sorry
But I don't believe you baby
Like I did before
You're not sorry, no, no, no, no

Looking so innocent
I might believe you if I didn't know
Could've loved you all my life
If you hadn't left me waiting in the cold

And you got your share of secrets
And I'm tired of being last to know
And now you're asking me to listen
Cause it's worked each time before

But you don't have to call anymore
I won't pick up the phone
This is the last straw
Don't wanna hurt anymore

And you can tell me that you're sorry
But I don't believe you baby
Like I did before
You're not sorry, no, no, oh
You're not sorry, no, no, oh

You had me falling for you honey
And it never would've gone away, no
You used to shine so bright
But I watched all of it fade

So you don't have to call anymore
I won't pick up the phone
This is the last straw
There's nothing left to beg for

And you can tell me that you're sorry
But I don't believe you baby
Like I did before
You're not sorry, no, no, oh

It's really over

It's over. My days consumed by learning are done...until September at least :]
This week has been amazing! Zero stress for the first time ALL YEAR!
I've done nothing but watch movies, play games, and sit around in all of my six classes. It's incredible and I'm pretty sure it's going to stay this way until the end of the year when I graduate...which, by the way, is in 29 days. Hallelujiah.
Track's been going decently, too. I qualified for districts yesterday in high jump, and I triple jump tomorrow so hopefully that goes well.


RELIEF is all I feel. It's amazing. I love it.
