Alrighty Then

Yeah. . . school is prety cool. Depends on the day is what I say. Anyways yeah I'm liking a few of my classes better and better each day. My favorite is yearbook and jazz band. I like yearbook cause I think it would be awesome if I could be a photographer. Jazz band rocks cause I love jazz. I play tenor sax for it and its a little harder cause its different from the clarinet and I just picked it up about 6 months ago. Its all cool though. So yeah its raining today. I kinda like that though, playing in the rain is always fun. Once my friend Ben and I had a puddle hopping fight. That was the bomb diggidy dude. For sure. Have a grand ball!

to twinkie: is to rub a twinkie on another

"So yesterday my church's youth group spent the afternoon on my pastor's house boat over on the St. Croix River. It was a blast, the water was really cold and my friend Anthony jumped in and swam for a while. Also we twinkied this guy named Randy, I'm hoping to have pictures soon! (To Twinkie: To bite off the end of a Twinkie and rub white contents all over ones face) Also I got twinkied a little bit too, but that was payback for what I did to Randy. We also had a grape fight, which is when you throw grapes at eachother until an adult stops it. So that was very much fun.On the way home I rode in Randy's trunk because there wasn't any room. He blasted the music very loud and decided he'd race the other youth members who drove, and to take the corners really fast. It was scary but really fun. So there ya go, that's what I did yesterday. Oh and I also watched all three Star Wars yesterday morning. Star Wars RULES!" words stollen from Erin so I didnt have to tell the story myself.

me and the little sister i call erin 

Day of Wonders

Heck Yeah! Today, oh what an awesome day. So it starts out that my sister and I have to wake up early to go to see you at the pole. Well it was raining and there was a thunderstorm. We went anyways and being that it is a private school they had a flag in the gym and everyone was standing there praying instead of outside in the dangerous lightning. Also today is my sisters birthday so that's cool. To add to the already well started off day my school has chapel every Wednesday and so we went to chapel after first hour. I had to leave early because I was in a skit that we did for it. That was cool and went well. Here we go chapel started with the worship team doing a rockin job leading the songs then the skit then Rebecca K. went up and started a prayer and anyone in the room could pray. To let you know more in our chapel there is 7-12 grade students. I was so suprised when people just started praying one at a time and you can tell who the leaders of are in this school. God blessed it so much. After the prayers Nate went up and he is in my grade and he tought us to have a pure heart and stay away from the line of temptation. He makes a great teacher. Last of all he called up the people who want to ascend (become closer/go from the level you are at to a higher level) to God. It was awesome to see all of my peers go forward to pray. To know that God can be in our school and talked about and shared in every class without being persicuted is so amazing. We stayed up there and the teachers went around and prayed for every student. A few of the seniors and I went around and prayed for the younger kids. It is so crazy to think that I am now one of the leaders in this school. No matter how small it is. God touched everyone. To be used by Him, there is no explanation of how good I felt. The almighty Yeshua is amazing!

my birthday!

hey, today is my 18th birthday. I am getting so old! Yeah, today was a great day. I went to school like always and then at 11:00 I went out to lunch with my brother, I'm able to do that because our school has open campus for seniors. Him and I went to Fizolies, a fast food Italian resturant. Very good food. That kids named Joe rocks! The rest of the school day was cool too. I'm in yearbook 7th hour, that is the most rockinest class I have had yet at Meadow Creek.
Oh yeah yesterday I worked from 4-8 and there was the newest member of Holiday getting trained in. His name is Joe, we were talkin and he was born the day after me, in the same hospital, and has the same car as me. He found this quite interesting. Its all cool i suppose. I hope it made his first day on the job a little more interesting. alrighty, well off to do some more homework. . .

school

okay so i didnt write about the first day of school, but it was prety boring like all first days because of all the lectures about what is going to happen through the year and so on. it was crazy and i was half dead. erin and i had stayed up the night before and not gotten a wink of sleep, quite the story but dumb thing to do. than yesterday i was a little better but almost fell asleep in chapel. today, okay here we are now back on schedule. today was a great day. i got to start playing in jazz band and i hope mr. r lets me stay in it even though im not the greatest tenor sax player. i am in yearbook this year, that is going to be the greatest class. hopefully my favorite too. last of all i gave blood today! yeah! then i went to volunteer and i was a half and hour late because of drawin my blood, i didnt think it would take that long. but after i was done giving blood they give you snacks and stuff and this girl who is named britt in 5th grade at meadow creek came and talked to me and we really hit it off. i hope i see her in the hallways. i told her that someday she should volunteer too. i hope she does cause she seems like she would be good at it. anyways onto my homework now.

if you will just turn your head slighty to the right, a little more. ah, yes, you will find my sister 

oh dear, it's me again, at 1 in the morning 

Zzzzzzzz

hello friends. Today is good. I cant believe that tomarrow school starts. Thats crazy.
Yesterday was great. I went to church like always then went out to lunch with one of my bestest buds, Dena. She is such a sweet heart. That was quite enjoyable to finaly spend a little time with her. Oh and the other day I talked to Jon which was awesome. I have the some really awesome friends. Anyways after lunch with Dena I had to go straight to work. Work wasnt too bad last night because it was raining all night so not too many people came in. It was actually kinda boring because of that but oh well, I like that better than busy. Have a great afternoon.

another day in history

yeah so last night I stayed up late, I read until about 3 o'clock. yeah crazy me. so I than slept in until 12 which is always good but I had to be at work by 2. so i got up, took a shower, sat around and then went to work. work wasnt too bad today, ya know there are the good and the bads. but. . . okay this lady that has come in some other times when I'm there, a regular customer I guess you could say. she asked me while I was checking her out if I like art and I said I do but I'm not the best at it and I asked why she asked that and she told me that I should be a graphic designer. I didnt know why she told me this and I asked her is she was an art teacher or liked art and her friend said that I should listen to her, she has that kinda thing to tell someone what they should do and it is what they are supposed to do or whatever ya know that gift I guess. that is crazy. wow. and than a few of my friends came in and said hi and so on making the night better and better. it is just weird how the littlest things can make a huge differance. last of all my register came out well which is always a load off my shoulders. now I'm home. I think I am going to go outside and watch the stars for a while. God Bless! He is so awesome!

gas stations

yeah so I work at the Holiday gas station by my house. I used to think it wouldnt be to bad to work at a a gas station. yeah right. so I am all fine and dandy when I am doing the floor work, but it can be quite stressful when I am doing register. its labor day weekend and so everyone is getting their gas now to go up north for the weekend. crazy! I wont say anymore.
Oh yeah on my way home the moon was beautiful, it was an orange/red color just comming up over the horizon. God is so cool. than when I was driving up my long driveway a deer ran across about 10 feet ahead of my car. its not too cool when that happens. anyways there ya go

someday, I want to become a photographer 

We are all so super! Oh that is Moses in the middle.  

Hey Jon, remember this picture. We were quite the youngins.  

Heck Yeah!

Today, oh wow. It's like sooo interesting. Yeah I woke up around noon which rocked. I dont have anything to do besides going to work at 4 o'clock. I have a really bad feeling in my gut that something bad is going to happen at work or else I just really dont want to go. Either way it's not cool. Talk to you later, hope your day is better than mine.

another road to be less taken, but still worn if i am not mistaken

Melancholy Day

So today, what a day. Like all summer days sleeping in is music to my ears. I didnt have much to do besides volunteer. That went well though. I didnt play uno or dominoes this time. We went upstairs in the loft and put labels on letters for a group of people that came in from I think it was the YMCA or something. It reminded me of a factory or something like in the 20's when they were making war machines. Hazel, one of my favorite people there, said she was done and then she would get another stack of letters to address. She said she was too tired to play Bingo tonight. That just isnt cool.
Other than volunteering I just hung out around home. My family and I live in the woods, 19 acrees of it and swamp. I have a few favorite places just to go hang out, read and stuff. There is a place where a tree fell down back hidden in the woods and I love sitting there in silence thinking and stuff. Just listening to the breeze and the crickets and so on.
Oh yeah I almost forgot, my sister is taking my senior pictures and we did some of that today. She told me that I should climb this tree, which would look awesome if I sat in it. But as I was climbing it (I like to climb trees) I slipped and had to hug it as I slid down. Erin got a picture of that and now I have scratches all up my arms. Very funny and enjoyable though.

Love Denied

Ever after do I find
You are always in my mind
So much have I made lost

I now have to pay that great cost

strewn about

The place where seated
Thoughts lay strewn in disarray
Reminiscences are imbedded into the ground

Their seeds than erupt into a bountiful bouquet

A Place

I do not want to remember
That dark and pale December
Showing snow upon the ground
Nothing else was around
Where my life had once played

My body was now laid

Of Love

Every midnight stroll,
Had its hurtful toll.
He had bought her heart with all the stars,
Knowing next that he would give her mars.
She understood she would have to say goodbye someday,

Which harmed her heart in an enormous way.

Just One Day

Today, what a day. I woke up late cause I have to use every hour of my last few days of summer to its fullest extent. Erin and I went to our school and talked to one of my teachers. He had given us homework over the summer to read some things off a websight and then do a short overview of it or something. Anyways the websight is not there or isnt workin so I talked to him about that. He said not to worry about it! Yeah!
While we were at the school my sister and I went to the playground out back and took some awesome pictures of me. I am taking my own senior pics. So that was grand and then we went to the library and took some more funny pics and checked out some books of course. Then we stopped and got some jones soda cause I had the jones for some jones. I then dropped Erin off at her friends house.
The rest of the afternoon I watched Lain which is an anime tv show that I am borrowing from my bro. Very cool indeed. Last of all I went to church with my family. God is good!

How Awesome Is Our God!

God is so awesome. I just look over my day and can see God's might and power in everything. To see what He has blessed me with I just become awe struck.

a sister intrigued 

Herman, the fat dude!

Herman

Herman is my big white dude,

He does ask for a lot of food.

I do indeed love him much,

But if he sat on my leg I would need a crutch.

He likes to keep my feet warm,

And does me no real great harm.

His purring is more like roaring,

But never worse than his snoring.

When push comes to shove,

He has nothing I could not love.
