Writing and Singing

These are both things I'm no good at.. but wish to be. I can hardly play music as well. I've always found it very difficult to "express" my emotions passionately! When I get close to a girl I'm interested in, I trip over my words like I'm running a three legged race. Most girls think it's "adorable" that I don't speak correctly... I think it's annoying.

I thought, maybe if I practice writing poetry the song part will follow shortly after. So far, no such luck. But I'm not giving up just yet. I'm full of passion without an outlet... this is never a good situation.

Skydiving

...it's definitely something I could do as a hobby. It's an adrenaline rush for the first 10 seconds and after that it's like flying towards a huge painting at 120mph. My sis came with me but didn't jump so I think we're going to plan another trip on her birthday to come do it again.

My First Blog...

I'm just going to let you know right now... I use these "..." A LOT! I just like them, and it's kind of a habit.

My hobby's are running and filming and do quite a bit of both. We're starting a small video editing company. I'd tell you the name of our company but we keep going back and forth about that subject.

Enjoy.

This week is “national turn off TV week” so the majority of the family is trying not to watch TV. Dad and Tab don’t care though. Mom and Dad got in a big fight on the phone today, which ended in mom slamming the phone on the hook. Then mom called dad back to ask for forgiveness and mom quickly hung the phone back up. I don’t remember if I told you, but Zane got a convertible. He paid about $2,000 for it. The day after Easter, I got mad about something and I had all this stored up anger. Well I went outside to get away from every one and I stood up on our old bbq grill holder and fell. When I got up it felt like nothing had happened, then I looked at my left thumb, it was bleeding badly. So I asked God to forgive me for my anger then went and washed it off from the dirt. It’s just that now I can look at my thumb and remember, not to store up anger. I’ll be able to look at my thumb and remember how much pain it cost me. I just thought I’d tell you something funny that happened at school today. Zane, Brian Bradfute, and I were eating lunch in the cafeteria today, we were playing with a ketchup packet as if it were drugs or something. A cop was watching us and we knew it. So I left the table early and the Officer didn’t say anything, I guess because we made it look like Zane had the “drugs”. So when I got home from school Zane told me what had happened after I left. As Zane and Brian were leaving the table, the cop told Zane to come over and empty his pockets. When he did, to the Officers surprise, Zane had pulled out that ketchup packet, the two cops started busting out laughing. One cop later said that we better not try to sniff that. I got a kick out of that. Sam out.

I went to the homecoming dance with Tab Friday. It was fun at the end but I wasn’t sure what to expect at the beginning. I danced with Tab (slow and fast songs), one of here senior friends (slow song), and Briana (slow song). For the most part it was fun. I know what to be ready for next year. I talked to Christina again at the end, she didn’t come with anybody. At the end of the dance we (Tab, Adrian, Heather, Candace, Briana, Andrew, and I) went to the Brett’s house and spent the night. I had a little talk with Briana that night about why she couldn’t stay in public school. She didn’t tell me much. I got 2^nd place in the cross-country district meet. The first place runner was just a few yards ahead of me. Our freshman team got second. My amazing time was 12:13 for a two-mile. My average two-mile time is 13:36. I lowered my time by around 49 seconds. I got to sleep now.

I had a bike wreak today on the road. It cut open my finger and scraped my elbow. We got two new cars, one for Naomi and one for Mom. Tomorrow is Andrew Bretts b-day party. I’m also starting to mow Joshua school again. I feel free now and I’m looking forward to driving. On the other hand I’m intimidated of public school, at the same time I’m exited. I feel crazy and loony and just aaaaahhhhhhh, I don’t now what to expect when I grow up. We are even thinking about moving because we didn’t get the land next to us. My favorite show on TV is Small Ville, it is a show about superman as a teenager, I feel like I can relate to it some how. And I really like the introductory song. It’s 10:00pm and I have to take a shower.

It’s been a while, summer has just about past and I’m gonna be home schooled this last year. Tab has her license and Jacob is gonna wait until he’s 18 which is just around the corner. Jacob M. and I have started a band, it’s called “DAWN”. We’ve started to go to the Ark Family Church, my dad really likes it and I think it’s pretty good. I’m going to do their light system this Sun. because the person that usually does it is going to be at a wedding.
