                <description><![CDATA[ So its been a while since I have written here.  I have been so busy lately...  Not counting the past four days but before that I had been getting a headache everyday for about 3 or 4 weeks and they weren't normal headaches either.  They were really bad migraines ones that sucked the energy out of me and I couldn't do anything but lay in bed.  But the past four days I haven't gotten a headache which has been nice.  Also I have just been doing a lot of homework and school.  <br />I signed up for a cake decorating class and it will be on Mondays 6-8 so that should be something fun for me to do.  and I haven't updated lately but hopefully that will change.  I plan on taking more film pictures.  In my moms old Pentex K1000 35mm camera the internal light meter broke so I need to either get a newer film camera or a light meter that is external.  So when I start doing that again I will have new pictures to upload. I guess that is all for now.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hey everyone!!<br /><br />So the past week has been really long.  But I made it through the first week of school, though I have been thinking of changing my major from German to something else.  And the reason why, is well I love german and all but when I get out of college if I can't get a job with the CIA what can I really do with German?  except teach but I am not getting a teaching degree and I don't really want to be a teacher.  So I was thinking I could just Minor in German and then Major in something else.  And then I was thinking about what I like to do, and I actually like to cook when I can.  I mean I made really good ratatouili the other week and I love watching Ace of Cakes.  So I am thinking Chef, or Pastry Chef.  Also I like designing things like my room, and I know what colors go with other colors and what not so this made me think of Interior Design... Then when I took Sociology I realized I liked psychology so much better.  There is also Photography but that field is really competative.  Anyways so I was thinking if I major in Psychology and minor in german I can still join the CIA or if that doesn't work I can be a counselor.  Cause I am still interested in taking Russian.  And I was thinking maybe I could double minor in German and Culinary and I know those two things don't have anything to do with each other but I mean so what.  Or if I majored in Culinary art and minored in German then I could make german food... And you wonder where is the interior design... Well I don't know....haha So yea this is all I have come up with so far.  Though I am almost finished with my Associate of Arts degree at NWACC so I am going to finish that instead of having to start completely over.  And I guess I will have to see where things take me.  I know its all very confusing..<br /><br />And on top of that I have a small cold or allergies.... Which this is the first year to have allergies.... And the only allergy I deffinitely know I have is a Milk allergy.  So yea....<br /><br />So that's just about it for now.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So hey everyone!! Guess what??  I got a Macbook Pro 13" finally.  Though it will take me some months to pay it off, oh well.  It is completely awesome.  <br /><br />So the reason why I am scared is this semester I am going to two different colleges.  MWF at 10:30-11:20 I am at the UofA for Advanced German (and since I didn't buy a parking pass for one class, I have to park at this other parking lot and then ride a bus up to the stop near the class.  this is not the hard part, the hard part and the scared part is coming back on the bus to the parking lot and getting there in time, so that I will have time to get up to Bentonville and to NWACC for a class at 12....)  So yea and I love school and I can't wait till it starts but UofA is so much bigger compared to NWACC.  I have been going to NWACC for the past year and there are only two buildings at the main campus and so yea it is really small, and now going to a huge college with big hills and new things it is a bit scary.  And I will almost be alone cause all my friends go to UofA and so they will have a parking on campus and everything.  I know I can do it though.  But I am wondering if I should take my laptop on the first day.... What do you all think?  Well I guess that all about the scaredness.  I am glad school is finally starting, I mean don't get me wrong I like summer but what is there to do for 3 and a half months or 4 months???  <br /><br />So yea today and tomorrow I will probably be getting ready for school and putting all my things from our PC desktop to my mac.  hehe<br /><br />Well I guess that is all for now.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hey everyone!!<br /><br />I haven't updated my journal in forever.  I have been so busy this summer and when i work during the week I try not to get online at home much because I am already bored of the computer.  So I decided I needed to update this thing.  I do have some new photos but since I am at work right now I can't post them.  <br /><br />I am so happy because my boyfriend is coming to visit this Friday and I haven't seen him since May. Thats like four months...  So I am so excited to finally see him.  And we are celebrating our 13th month anniversary!!!  So I made him an awesome gift and because I worked really hard on it...like three months of hard work..yea i know he is really special to me.  Well anyway he gets to do a scavenger hunt!!  and during the hunt he will find three smaller gifts, one of them i have made and the other two are bought.  So today I am working which even though it is boring it is probably good so I don't start going crazy.  Then tonight I am going horseback riding with sforzando!!!  YAY!!! I get to ride Rocky!!  <br /><br />Then tomorrow I have to vacum the whole house and make sure everything is clean.  I can be a little OCD about these kinds of things.  <br /><br />So I don't know if I will have time to upload any photos, but if I do it will probably be tonight or tomorrow night.  <br /><br />Well I guess this is all for now.  I will try to update you all more often.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I thought since I uploaded some new pictures, I should write a new journal.  Though this is going to be shortish...  <br /><br />Lately I have been thinking about getting a tattoo, well actually I have been thinking about it a lot and so yea I know where I want it and I know I want either a word or phrase in another language like hebrew, greek, arabic...  But I am doing a lot of thinking so I know for sure what I want and don't just get something done on a whim.  What do you all think? <br /><br />I also saw UP today and I thought it was really good and funny.  I would probably go see it again as well. But lately I have been working for my school and for my neighbor which isn't that hard, then I try to hang out with friends and about a month or two ago I bought the 2007 Writers market cause it was like three dollars at this used bookstore.  For the past few days I have been looking for literary agents and book publishers that might publish my stories or actually I only have one book done so far.  But that took a lot of skimming, now I need to look them up online and see what I have to do to send my manuscript to them or w/e they want me to do and so that may take longer too.  But I have the whole summer so yea I am hoping to send something of what is needed to every place I wrote down.  Which I found 18 Literary agents and 71 book publishers....sounds almost boring but with working and sitting in front of a computer all day I think I can fit it into my schedule since I don't have anything else to do usually...  So wish me luck and I hope I don't go crazy.<br /><br />So I guess that is all for my update.  Hope you all like my new pictures.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well it has been a long time since I last wrote a journal or even updated my deviantart.  But I have to say I have been so busy the past month of school.  I had four finals, which my two hardest were Honors World Religions and College Algebra.  Well somehow even though I had made bad grades on all the tests in World Religions; but I did do all the other homework I made a "B" in the class which surprises me.  Then College Algebra, I had done really well on the homework and most of the tests.  But also I usually suck at math and tests and so I was worried about the final.  For a class to transfer at my community college I have to get a "C" in the class or I would have to retake it.  Well I did just that, I made a "C" and really I am happy with that grade even though it did bring my GPA down which makes me mad.  But I don't have to take College Algebra ever again!! YAY!!<br /><br />So Yeah that's all good and it feels like eons ago when I was in High School.  I mean now I am official a sophomore(smore) and I wont ever be a freshman(freshy) again!!! I also already picked out my classes for the fall semester and I know most of them will be easier, but then I will be taking Advanced German and Principles of Biology(my harder classes). My easier classes are Tennis, Communications, Western Civ, and Beginning Piano; and I know how to play piano because I taught myself when I was five but I have never had lessons and so why not.  <br /><br />Lately I have been practicing my flute because I told my boyfriend I would play some songs for him and it actually feels good to practice just for the fun of it and not for school or anything.  One of the songs I picked is called Largo and it is winter from Vivaldi Four seasons.  So I can't wait for that, and I should be visiting him in about two weeks which is really exciting!!  I haven't seen him in person since February 20th and that is a long time for me.  He lives about five and a half hours away so I can't visit often...<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />  But dating him long distance is worth it... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />  <br /><br />Well I will try and update some more pictures later.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So yea I have been very busy the last few weeks and that is why I haven't been on much lately.  So most people have three weeks left of school, but I have only nine days left and then four finals.  I am pretty excited.  Now I just have to get through the next 9 days.  haha...and I keep getting so much homework...eekk!  So I hope to upload pictures soon on here because i have a few new ones.  <br /><br />So I really can't wait till summer even though I will have to work and other things, but then I can see my boyfriend more and that always makes me happy.  <br /><br />I guess that is all...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So NWACC(the community college I go to) messed up and so all my friends and most public schools have spring break this week and I have it the week after...yea it somewhat sucks.  And it is messed up because some people have classes at both places (NWACC and the UofA) Which I will be one of them in the fall. Which on a good note: I got into UofA, though I only need to take one class the next two semesters.<br />I finally have decided exactly what I want to major and minor in.  <br />I want to major in German and Russian and minor in Arabic.  And I know plenty people have told me that it is going to be hard but I know that I can do it.  Plus Russian is supposed to be easy once you know German which is awesome.  I can't wait to start.  hehe.  So yea I don't know what else to write.<br /><br />laters<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So these past few weeks have been some of the best weeks of my life.  We all go through our own lives and sometimes life throws us challenges that we must face to succeed to the next level.  It reminds me of a video game where if you die you have to keep trying till you succeed.  Though in life you may not have as many chances as one would have playing a so called video game.  Lately I have been doing a lot of thinking about my life and other little things.  Such as my Major and Minor for College went from German and Arabic, to Psychology and German and now I have chosen to change again.  It seems that it is my calling.  I am changing my major to Russian and German (and I will get my masters in German, I can't get my masters in Russian) and I will minor in Arabic.  Now yea these may change and I will be ready if my mind does change.  But that's how college is, it is our decision time on what we want to really do in life.  I have grown a lot through the years.  And even though life has thrown me some hard challenges I know that I always have my friends and family around to help me get through these challenges.  I also have my boyfriend who means everything to me and he is so awesome in how he goes about things.  Even though he is younger he is also more mature as well.  And maybe that is hard to believe for some people but that is how I see him.  I don't even think of him being younger because he acts so mature.  But he makes me so happy all the time.  But just don't take life for granted.  Live it fully and how you want to live it. <br /><br />Well I guess that is all for now since my arms are getting tired from typing so much and I am tired from today and I have work tomorrow.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Since then I have driven to Texas to visit my boyfriend which was so much fun because we celebrated a late v-day and early b-day for me.  But it was a longish drive.

                <description><![CDATA[ I finally had time to upload some ice pictures from the big ice storm we had...yea I was out of power for six days and it got very cold in our house, but we ended up staying at a neighbors after two nights in our house.  I would upload more pictures but I took over like 300 pics and i am going to make a movie of them so if you want to see the rest of my pictures you can click on the link once i upload the movie.  So yea I have had a lot of homework lately and this is just going to be a quick update journal...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So here I am sitting in the computer lab at college.  Apparently I need to check my email in the morning because my English teacher cancelled class and I didn't know about it untill I drove up here.  And so now my next class isn't till 12 which would be nice if I could hang out with some friends or go somewhere but it is kind of cold outside...And around 11:30 we are supposed to get snow, sleet, and w/e else the weather person said.  I really wish I was home right now because I don't like the cold weather and I don't like driving in the snow and ice.  It is kind of scary.  And I already finished all my homework so I can't do any of that...ugg... Soo...I don't know what to say really.  I wish I was home!!!!!!!!!!!!!  well that's all for now I guess...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hallo!  So I am feeling so much better now, which is better than how I was feeling.  So I got through the second week of school alright with only a little bit of homework, which I think is strange since I am taking two honors classes...  But trust me I ain't complaining, this is nice because then I have time to work on other things, or sleep.  Also for the past week or two I have really been thinking about my major which originally was German with an Arabic minor, but now I am not so sure about that.  So now I am thinking about majoring in Psychology with a minor in German, because I really like German but I don't know what I would do with it.  Besides teach (which I don't want to do), or the CIA but then I would need another language, which I mean wouldn't be that bad.  So anyways I am really interested in Psychology but I don't really want to go to medical school.  <br />But yea pretty much that is all I have at the moment...  I will try and add some new pictures soon.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So yea my four day weekend was going pretty good, especially Friday was fun spending time with my friend Terri, and then Friday night I went to this pottery painting place called different strokes with Philestino.  That was a lot of fun to be around people.  Saturday was a pretty good day as well since my mom was home all day.  But then Sunday wasn't so fun....I went to church mostly to get my shirt that I let a friend borrow and I know it wasn't her fault but I was really looking forward to having it back.  And now we can't find it because she put it in the closet at church....and I had woken up with a horrible headache.  So after church I did my German homework and then took some Tylenol 3 with codeine and went to sleep for about three hours.  Which was really good, and after waking up I did English homework because I thought of I will finish all my homework today and then have none tomorrow so I can have fun .  So yesterday I cried a little bit because I was in an emotional mood and today I slept in because I talked to my boyfriend online for a while.  But I am supposed to do certain things today like help out around the house and go to the public library and Petco(I need snake and bird food).  But idk I just don't know what me and a friend would do if we hung out.  I feel so alone sometimes because all my friends have their mom and dad and siblings and I feel like an only child now that my brother is gone but really I miss having someone here.  I used to like being home alone but now it makes it so hard.  I feel a little left out from when families spend time with each other and I guess I kind of feel like a black sheep.  And I know I shouldn't think this and that I have the greatest boyfriend and really great friends but when I am not talking to them or hanging out with them I feel alone.  I hate feeling this way though. And I know other people have hard times as well I just don't know.  And I am not saying crying is bad or anything.<br /><br />So there I went ranting about random stuff.  Well now I don't know what I am going to do because there really isn't much to do here in my town.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So yea I started school on Monday and so far it hasn't been too hard, just a little homework here and there.  Mostly reading of Sorts.  So pretty much my schedule is MW- English composition 2 with honors 10:30-11:45 (pretty easy class though it is honors..) then Honors World Religions at 12:00-1:15 (a pretty cool class so far) and then College Algebra from 1:30-3:20 (this is my longest class and my teacher is kind of strange...but haven't had much homework in here.)  Then Tuesday/Thursday I have History of the American People to 1877 from 4:30-5:45 (teacher seems nice so far)<br />and German 4 from 6-7:15 (and I know most people are like eww night class but it isn't that bad really.  I really enjoy my german class.)  And then I have Friday's off so that means sleeping in and doing stuff at random, which also means three day weekend every week!!  And this week so happens to be a four day weekend because of Martin Luther King Jr day next Monday!! So very exciting.<br />So yea I haven't had much time to take a lot of pictures recently because of school and the cold weather (brr) but I will try to take something this weekend.  Or maybe just play a little bit on Photoshop...hmmm...I don't know I am kind of in the process of writing a story of some kind while editing another story...But sorry I am not going to tell anyone right now.  I still have much work to do on it and so yea, don't even try and ask...Philestino the answer is no. I am sorry but I just need time right now to get my thoughts straight. And so this concludes my journal entry!!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well let's just say it has been a while since I was on here.  Since school ended I had my appendix removed, along with my wisdom teeth and then Christmas came around and then I visited my Boyfriend!!!  It was SOOOOOOOOO much FUN!!  Though now I really miss him and this week is hard because I am not in school which sounds nice but really there isn't much to do unless you like cleaning everyday.  So yea it has been a little sad.  <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> but I am getting through it.  and then I have classes Monday thru Thursday and then I will have Friday's off. So yay there!!!  Well I guess that is all<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hey all, <br />So wow my summer has been so great!! Just looking back at it now makes me happy.  I did just about everything that I wanted to do, and this is the summer right before my first year of college.  <br />I can't wait for college, I know that may sound strange because usually when you think about school you end up not wanting to go back and having to start with a new school year but, this is like a new beginning; a new chapter in my life.  Three more weeks until I start school and this time I am starting at a new school close to home but still only five classes and wont be at school all day long.  <br />Even though I wont be going to school with all my friends from high school, I will still be seeing them every once in a while and spending time with them.  I still plan on going to the High School Football games for my school with my best friend; Philestino!!  I mean not for the football but for the band, because once you are a bandy and you have done Marching band you will always have bandyish traits in you....hahaha sorry...Yea so we are band geeks/nerds I keep forgetting which one...hmm oh well.<br />And even though in college I wont be in band so what.  I am majoring in German!! and it will be awesome.   <br />Oh but before I start school two exciting things are happening!! That's right my summer will end with the most perfect things!! yay!  So this Friday my boyfriend is coming into town to see me and I am so very excited.  You don't even know, I have been cleaning since yesterday and everything looks nice and I plan to finish by Thursday!!  And then next weekend I am going to visit my other best friend in Missouri!!  And it's going to be soo totally awesome!!! I haven't seen her for like two years and also while I am there, there is just things I want to see and do.  I do talk with her just about everyday though.  So yea then I start school after that well a week after that but whatever.  <br /><br />But yea about my title, it is a title of the this song from Pride & Prejudice I have been listening to and it helps me meditate sleep...  Doing that calms my body down and brings me more intune with everything around me but really the whole Pride & Prejudice soundtrack is awesome!<br />So I guess that is it for now..Hopefully I will be posting new stuff soon!!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yea so I have been checking things on here; though I just haven't written anything in a while. But let's see I had gotten a job and it was at an Animal Hospital but it turned out to be stressful because I asked for full time and it was just too much for me and it stressed me out so much that I had gotten sick.  And so when I went to the meeting at work my boss talked with me privately and I decided to do a mutual quit just because I really don't think working there was my "Cup of Tea" even though I love animals, it is different. And I was having these weird dreams about working and so I thought that this must be telling me something.  Now I have been sleeping more peacefully which is really good.<br />Though I had this other interview at another animal hospital though it would be less hours I don't know if i should say yes; if they want me.  I just don't know and I am hoping a sign comes up and shows me what to do.<br />On a good point I am going to this Mission Project which will be work but fun as well.  Also my boyfriend is going to come up and visit me!! yay!! I am very excited.  Then the next weekend I am visiting my best friend from MO.  So fun times are coming.<br />So the only thing I am worried about is the whole job thing...grr...if anyone wants to give me input I would gladly except anything.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yea weird title, but really for the past week life has been just throwing random stuff at me that some of it has been hard but I have been getting through it the best I can.  <br /><br />I have been living my life more lately; like actually doing things and not just sitting around doing nothing.  I have been reading a lot and so yea I get more done on my reading list.  Part of me can't wait for college to start and I just want it to be time.  And the other part of me is a little nervous and just wants to relax and sleep and all that good stuff.  So I was just writing this little update.  <br /><br />I hope to be posting more pictures soon since I have more time.  <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=)" title="=) (Smile)" />  Anyways later!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So yes it is the first week in June!!  I have been out of school, and hanging with friends.  But there have been some bad things that have happened; such as our air conditioner stopped working and so we have had to use fans and everything and it's been really hot.  <br />Second thing is my bf broke up with me for some stupid reasons.  That I don't even know which of his two stories is the truth....sad I know. But I have been thinking since the whole thing went down and really I am going to college next year and I will meet guys there, and I heard it's weird going into college with a boyfriend already so yea.  Now I am single and I will still be friends with my ex, but I am still angry at him for somethings I wont say on here.  <br />And I told him even if he does find someone else this summer (even though he said he would wait till college) (he will be a senior next year in high school) I will support him and he said I didn't have to but you know what happened between us happened.  I can't go back and change the past so I might as well not dwell on it too much and just have fun for the exciting things that will happen in my future.  And I still want to be his friend even if it may be a little strange.  but life seems to throw difficult times at us and either we break down and get right back up or break down and have trouble getting back up.  I will pick the first one.  And why my journal is named Love Autopsy is b/c of the song from Music and Lyrics "Figuring out you and me it's life doing a love autopsy, they could operate all day long and never figure out what went wrong love autopsyx2 i. what went wrong.  <br />And while listening to this I thought it reminded me somewhat of life and of when you love someone in life and then they break your heart that it is hard to go back and see what went wrong with it all, unless you want to be spending your time figuring that out and getting more confused. So what I am getting at is when things like this in life happen get back up and keep going and you can figure somewhat out but really just know that it happened and you can learn from the whole experience and know that in the future you can avoid the same mistake.  So I guess that is all and right now it is raining outside and I love the rain!!<br /><br />I am joining: <a href="http://birds-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/b/i/birds-club.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconbirds-club:" title="birds-club"/></a><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So last night I graduated!!  And I went to this Party that the school holds, called Project Graduation.  Which was fun some of the time but tiring as well.  I didn't get home this morning from it till about five and then I went to sleep, but only slept for four hours before waking up again and not being able to sleep at all...It was frustrating.  But I am excited, I will actually have more time now to post new things that I have!!  And I will have to work but I will have time for myself and time to spend with friends and my boyfriend.  Tomorrow I am having a graduation party and I have been cleaning all week and just finished tonight.  So yea but that is my update.  Hopefully I can get some new stuff on here soon!!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yea that is right this week starting tomorrow and Tuesday I have two AP Exams.  One for Ap music theory and one so Ap psychology.  Then Wednesday and Thursday I have regular school. And Friday along with next Monday I have three finals. It is so exciting.  But I know it is going to be crazy and I have Senioritist.  I know two days of normal school don't seem like that much but I have so much I have to do in those two days.  Like when we take Ap exams we can have off the rest of the day but on Monday after I eat lunch and after the exam (it being a morning thing) I have to go take two German quizzes, then I have to go develop film in photo class.  Then I get to go home and do homework.  Tuesday I am going to go to my first two class periods but 1st hour instead of band I will go to photo 1 and 2nd hour English b/c I have to.  Then I take my psychology exam in the afternoon and afterwards go home and finish this ridiculous English assignment.  <br />Wednesday i have to try and go to photo 1 to work on my final "photo" which is worth a lot of points during 7th hour where i have psychology and so I am hoping that isn't a problem.  and I want to do the same Thursday.  While studying for my Photo 1 and English final which wont be too hard.  <br /><br />This weekend I can see Chris, My boyfriend and study for math final which I take Monday and then that Thursday I graduate.  So yea I am going to be super busy with everything.  I might go crazy!!  AHHH!!!<br /><br />Well that is all for now.  Wish me luck with this week.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So yea I have six more days of high school and it is crazy.  Like I want out of school because this year has been crazy but I know I am going to miss my friends and most of them are staying here in town and going to college here but still we will have different schedules since it will be college.  And I have to take four finals but only study for one of them and next Monday I take the AP Music Theory Exam and Next Tuesday I take the AP Psychology Exam.  Which is crazy but I hope I do well on both of them.  Then Summer which I can't wait to relax and not have to worry about homework or graduation stuff and just get to be me.  <br />Also I have a boyfriend and he is so sweet and cool and amazing and so I can't wait till he is out of school.  He goes to a boarding school about two hours away which sucks but we are both out soon.  And next year in college for fall semester I am taking English Comp. 1 with honors, German 3 or as they call it Intermediate German, General Sociology, Intermediate Math and Bowling and Bowling is going to be the fun class but I need two p.e. credits and that sounded fun.  So I know I haven't put up anything in a while but I have been busy with this 1500 point English project where my teacher doesn't even give us part of the assignment till the day before it is due.  Which sucks 'cause we have to guess how to do it.  But I am almost out so w/e.  But I am going to go since it is late and I need sleep.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So Yea I know I uploaded a bunch of random stuff last night but I was kind of bored and thought "why not?"  <br />So for those who don't know what Parkour is, it is the art of displacement) is an activity with the aim of moving from one point to another as efficiently and quickly as possible, using principally the abilities of the human body. It is meant to help one overcome obstacles, which can be anything in the surrounding environment Â from branches and rocks to rails and concrete walls<br /><br />And I found a team in the city where I live and I have been wanting to learn for a while now.  So I am happy.  I get my first lesson next Saturday which I am really looking forward to.  If you want to learn more about this French sport (that's where it was started) just google Parkour or Freerunning.  Though some of these people will have been doing it for a long time and so yes it will look hard but with everything you have to practice to get better.  <br /><br />So this is a new thing for me.  And I just hope I don't run into too many walls or anything like that.  Since I seem to do that when I am not paying attention.  <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=)" title="=) (Smile)" />  <br /><br />Well that's all for now<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So yea today was "Senior Skip Day" but I went to school for my morning classes 'cause I had to at least go for part of the day.  I mean I wasn't going to be doing anything in my afternoon classes so there wasn't really a point to staying.  So yea like I don't know why this happened but before lunch today I hadn't eaten like dinner, breakfast, lunch since yesterday morning and my stomach was like feeling hungry but I didn't have the will to eat and so today I ate greek food and well my stomach feels sick...I kind of wonder though how long I could have gone without eating...hmm...Don't worry I am just a little crazy sometimes. <br />So yea like my mom decided yesterday that we would have a garage sale tomorrow and that meant getting everything I didn't want anymore out of my room.  Which doesn't give me much time but I guess since I clean my room so much it was sort of easy 'cause over the years I have gotten rid of a lot of the junk I have.  Some of it I wish I could keep but I know it would all just keep sitting there and so like I will be selling my Beanie Babies and I am keeping my very favorite ones, the rest have to go.  But I took a picture of the ones I have to let go and I will put them on here when my mom gives me time.  So...it's Spring Break, but I have Ap Psychology homework which is dumb but gotta do it.  Ummm....I can't think of anything else really...So I guess I am going to go..Laters<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ You can ask me THREE questions<br />
No matter how crazy, inappropriate, or random they are.<br />
I will answer 100% truthfully. (or as close to the truth as I can)<br />
<br />
Now here's the dare.<br />
You must put this in your journal<br />
See what other people will ask you.<br />
(You don't have to post it in your journal if you've already done it this year)<br />
<br />
I know it's risky but take your best shot!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay so it is Christmas Break and well I am trying to finish my first Short story so it can be published.  I already am on Chapter four, but am almost done with it.  there will be 9 chapters + an epilogue.  so I know that is a lot to write but if I make each chapter about 7-10 pages each and write two chapters a day I think I would be able to finish.  Now I have picked out an illustrator for my book; Philestino!  And so if anyone knows how exactly to publish a book that would be helpful.  I need to find an agent.  I am planning on getting this book at our library that tells where to publish it or how to pick a genre.  But then after I send that one in I am going to start editing my other one I have almost done and try to get that one published but see that one will be longer than this one so it may be harder.  So i will need some help.  So anyone have any suggestions??  Just write me something please, even encouragement would help!!<br />

I want to Major in German and English and minor in all the other languages; Russian, French, Arabic..  etc so yea now I just have to convince my mom which will be kind of hard.  But it will kind of be a work study college.  Gosh I wish it wouldn't be hard to convince her.  My mom is hard to convince though....geez....<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Omg So today is an away game but I have to go because of band.  But its cool because it is going to be really fun!!  I get to leave school at 2:15 which is awesome but I have to go get my hair done and then go to senior pictures.  yay!!  Then I come back to the school and go eat dinner with Philestino and such.  Then have to put on makeup and get ready to leave for the game.  I am excited but my mind is racing thinking about it all.  I am thinking i may not have enough time to do it all even though i will.  grr...  I dont know what to do about it all.  This period which is period 5 ends at around 1:40 and then I go to German.  I am in Digital Photo right now.  There is this girl right next to me and she is talking about how much she likes Boxers ( the dog)  It's just kind of funny.  We have to do this big layers project and I am doing mine on band and when I am finished i will post it on here.  I hope it looks really cool.  I will try to explain what it is going to look like.  so the background is going to be our band room and then i am going to take a picture of the band and I am either going to make it where they look like the band is coming out of the band room or that they are marching into the band room.  I am picturing that as really cool.  Then on one side there is going to be someone doing some colorguard thing with a flag and then on the other side with be a band student with their uniform on either facing the front or facing the back  i guess as you might call it.  Tell me what you all thik of that.  I hpe it will be good.  I want to get a good grade on it so that i dont have a bad grade in one of my easiest classes.  <br />
Today i had a math test and an Ap music theory aural test which were pretty easy.  Then in german i have a german quiz over easy stuff and so i will only have to practice colorguard this weekend and do English and Ap psy which is prety cool to be doing nothing on the weekend.  I am so happy not to have to do anything this weekend hardly and hopefully i will get to work on my story this weekend .  sorry if i spell anything wrong i am not looking at the screeen and probably typing about 70 words per minute.  well i guess i better go and get ready laters<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I was walking out of Wal-Mart today and it wasn't ranning too hard but enough that I was looking all over for my car.  (I lost where I had parked it!).  But I started thinking of reasons I liked rain.  So i had this idea that I am going to make a list of things and people will either tell me why they like that thing At least five reasons, or if you dont like the thing then you can say five you dont like about it and maybe make them positive.  Its just an idea.  Here are the first four. <br />
<br />
1. Rain/ Rain storms<br />
<br />
2. Music<br />
<br />
3. Friends<br />
<br />
4. Pets (like your own pets or if you dont have any pets your favorite animal and why)<br />
<br />
EnJoy!  This is just for fun!  And if you want you can make up your own and have people go off of it.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay so i have been really busy with life lately and well there is this guy I really like and i will tell you all how it all started.  It was at the begining of this school year and I was doing summer band practices.  And he was new because he is a smore.  But anyways I saw him and started to like him and i guess it showed because he figured it out and so then he would like ignore me and stuff but see during the begining i would be in the band hallway where he now sits and his friends would be there and say something like "Hey cody wants to talk to you"  And then Cody (the guy i like) would act all embarressed about it and be like "I was only joking guys i dont need to talk to her."  So I kind of just forgot about that and some of the time he seems like a really cool guy to hang around but then other times he would act imature or embarressed.  So then he would do stupid i guess to try to stop me from liking him but it never worked so I still like him all this time and he has called me a "ho" a couple of time but guys are like that.  I know he didn't mean it in a bad way.  So now to present time if I ignore him i can feel him looking at me or I catch him staring at me.  But if i pay attention to him he ignores me. And it gets me all confused.  And today I went to the band hallway for the first time in a long time and this guy named ben was all like "Robin's not a virgin" and he kept yelling it then he said something like "Hey cody was Robin your first?"  (like asking if we had sex) and Cody came over and tried to beat ben up.  And i knew Ben was joking around but somehow i think maybe cody didn't mind or something.  So then after school Ben said i should just talk to cody like normal but i need confidense and i haven't had much of that since my last relationship.  But yeah I need help with figuring out what to so everyone please help!!!  I kind of think he likes me....<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hi everyone!  Sorry I haven't written on here in like forever.  It's just I have had too much crap going on at home.  Which I might as well tell you all something about.  Ok it all started back in February like before the 9th and my dad said that he wanted to move out of the house.  Yea it was kind of a shock to me to but anyways.  So the weekend I went to Rally in Liveingston Texas with a bunch of hyper active people.  It was really fun and I met a lot of really cool people.  If anyone doesn't know what Rally is, it's this not really a camp but you stay at different places and they have lessons and you meet people and like our theme was the Wizard of OZ.  yea but its for Unity Chruchs.  But when I got home from that which lasted from Friday night to Sunday night/Monday morning.  Then since then my parents have been fighting on and off.  Which really sucks since I am around all the time.  So even though I love both of my parents I think its better if my dad moves away out of the house.  But its been about a month since he said he was going to move out and he is just now today going to move.  And him living at our house still for the past few weeks has upset my mom a lot and she yells a lot and so I have been stressing out about it all even though i know its not my fault I just am around it all the time.  So I hope my stress level will go down soon because then my body has been acting all strange from all the stress and I have gotten this very bad cold.  Also a few days I have gone home from school almost passing out.  And I dont want to miss anymore days or i wont be able to exempt any finals.  So yea.  I know all my friends will be there for me its just that sometimes around everyone I still feel alone in the world.  I have mostly stopped obessing over guys which takes some stress off myself.  But I have been trying to think about my books and I get stress from that with writing and stuff.  So my mind and body is out of whack and I think actually it is still kind of messed up from when my ex broke up with me about a year and three months ago.  I haven't talked to him since he broke up with me and he broke up with me on an email.  I was depressed from that for like a whole year.  So i really dont know what to do.  I have tried to meditate and clear my mind, think positive, just about everything so I need some suggestions from everyone on what to do.  I need a little bit of help with this because i need to fix it.  I know this is a long entry and I have to go very soon because my History class ends in like five minutes.  SO EVERYONE LEAVE SOME COMMENTS AND HELP ME OUT!!  By the way my birthday is next thursday March 8th!  And I am getting a corn snake for my birthday!  YAY!  But yea so once I get him I will post pictures of it.  I dont know what it's gender will be yet.  But yea I am signing out.  Bye<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well its been a while and i just uploaded some pictures!  Yay!  And yea it has been snowing here lately or it was but there is still plenty of snow left on the ground.  Although we didn't have to go to school on thursday and friday that means 4 DAY WEEKEND!  But yea it was cool.  Not really boring even though I have had a little cold that I have been trying to get over and yea.  So thursday I worked on my jeans.  I bought these jeans at the disney store and they have drawings of disney characters on them and so i decided after one of my friends ideas to draw another character on there.  so i drew thumper and at first i didn't think i would be able to free hand draw it so i tried tracing the pic i was going to do and then poking holes into and onto the jeans but that didn't really work so i just stuck to trying to draw him free hand which i did and at first he looked really bad untill i shaded him in and now he looks great.  Then I drew simba on the back right hand side pocket.  Also i colored in a bit of the characters so yea.  And i have been working on my stories.  I am getting tired of writing but i am still deciding what to do about some guys so if any of you have anything to say leave me a comment.  Well I guess i will go for now.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I went to All-Region today with the band and I got nervous in the room I played my music and scales.  And even though I didn't make All-Region I dont really care b/c I know I am good and I am not going to let my score get to me.  But anyways.  I did pretty good on the two songs and the sight reading but I did horrible on the scales.  There is always next year though which should be better,  I will practice more next year.  Enough of that I like two band guys.  One of the goes to Springdale school and one is in our band and I dont know what to do..  Does anyone have any advice??  They dont know I like them.  And then there is this one guy I think is really cute but the only thing is that he is like 2 and a half years younger than I am and I am 16 and a half.  So I dont know what to do!!  HELP!!! SOMEONE!!! <br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well yeah my computer has been down for a while and the laptop would be hard to hook up to the scanner so i am not able to upload any pictures.  So sorry about that but anyways my break has been pretty good.  I beat Ocarina of Time Master Quest which was a relief.  And I haven't been able to work of my books b/c i haven't gotten ideas which is kind of bad but I will just have to try and work harder.  So well I dont have much more to say but I have been having fun and well haven't really hung out with friends b/c most have been gone but maybe i will the last three days. So i go back to school on Wednesday and Saturday is All region which i have been practicing for and hopefully i will do pretty good.  Well I am gonna go..<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well we had thanks giving break this last week and it was really fun.  Even though I was mostly sick with a cold the whole break I did a lot of fun and exciting things.  Monday I stayed home by myself and played video games, read, and cleaned.  Tuesday more reading and cleaning and my brother came home from college which was cool.  Wednesday well i didn't really want to help with the cleaning up part so my brother made a deal with me where i would read the three parts about Malaria and DDT and tell him what each part was about which was a long thing.  The first part was about 3 pages and the second part was about 1 page but then the third part was 8 pages and that was long.  It was actually very interesting information and stuff and during the third part most of it wasn't stuff my brother needed to know it was about some guy named Paul Muller but it had two dots above the u so it was german but yeah i guess thats what i did most of the day.  Then thursday i sat around and watched the Macy's Day parade and that was cool.  We ate around 1or 2 in the afternoon.  Hmm Friday I woke up at four in the morning to go shopping with my mom to circuit city and it was insane with all the crowds.  My bro also went and i went with him to some of the stores.  Also the new nintendo Wii came out and I really want to try it out but i dont have one so maybe sometime soon i will get to see someones.  Then today I finally finished cleaning my room and everything and i finished the eight book of the Princess Diaries series and I have been reading about one a day which is really good but also a lot of reading.  So tomorrow I have school and I guess i dont care about it that much.  I met someone new and he and I might go out but I am not sure yet.  But I better go and get ready for school tomorrow.  More later if I have anytime with school being soo busy. Later<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ok I have been soo busy lately but decided to write one finally.  I wont be updating my art until hopefully this weekend.  So I will tell you all what I have been up too.  I have had some confusing weeks and I will tell you about them first.  But First of all Marching Band Is over!  I am a bit sad b/c I liked having all that fun with the football games but it took up a lot of my time.  But we may have to go to one more game b/c of play offs.  hmm...  But enough of band.  Okay I have been having some guy trouble b/c well I think i like a guy and then the next day I dont know if I do or not.  And there are two posible guys I may like right now but I am not for sure.  Both of the guys are sophmores and they are both in band.  One plays and percussion instrument and the other brass.  So Does Anyone know what I should do???  Have any suggestions?  And then We had tryouts for the musical we are doing at our school this year yesterday and today and the Musical we are doing is Guys and Dolls!  Yay but I tried out for singing and acting part and I think I did pretty well but i wont know how I did until tomorrow after school which is going to bug me all day...grr..  Back to band we have band tryouts next tuesday for band placement.  Our band has to have three different bands b/c we are soo big.  Are band contains like 200 people and are band room is too small for all of us to fit in there.  So they music we have to play off isn't that bad.  The flutes have to play the c cromatic scale two octaves (easy)  Then we have this one song and its a bit slower and that one is always easy.  Then we have this faster piece and i can play it slow but i need to practice it faster.  So thats whats been happening this week.  I am getting my hair cut tomorrow after school which will be fun.  lol...  Hmm what else.  Oh I have been working on my elf book a lot lately but i am not even half way done with it.  Oh I have also been getting a lot of homework lately  but I didn't get any tonight which I am very happy about but I think this is all I can write about.  I cant think about anything else.  I will try to upload pics soon!  Well later<br /><br /> ]]></description>
