Saturday-Sunday, December 18-26,

I think this is the longest I have gone without posting. My bad. I've been kind of busy. I remember some things but not all. lol. Here it goes.

December 18- I went Christmas shopping. We went to Belk and I got Sperry's (finally!!)! They are really cool! We went to the Christian book store and Hallmark, too. We then, went to Walmart, and I got Samantha and Katie's gifts! We went to the other Christian book store after that. Then, we picked up my medicine from CVS and went to Mickey D's! YUM(: Then, we went home and I don't really remember the rest! My cousin was induced for labor at 12!! Baby Chase was soon to come!

December 19- Baby Chase Colton Haberer was born at 2:09 a.m.! He was 7 pounds and 4 ounces, 21 1/4 inches! I tried posting a picture but it didn't load. I'll try again later. We went to the hospital about 12 and didn't get home until around 2:30! He's so precious. The rest of the day was pretty boring.

December 20- I went to school. First period was boring. Second period was fine. Third period sucked. Mr.Nemec wasn't there again. He was at home with his new baby girl! Instead of encore and expo, we had basketball intermerals. I didn't play but I talked to Samantha, Hayley, Jackie, Lauren, and Megan the whole time! It was so much fun! Fourth period was okay. I came home and just hung out.

December 21- I went to physical therapy. It was okay. I skipped Mrs.Gentry's class even though we had a sub. Mrs.Hall. I don't like her either! Second period was okay. Third sucked yet again. No Mr. Nemec. Encore was okay. We really didn't do anything. Expo was okay. Fourth period was, too. I came home and went to Granny's and Papa's. My cousin, Samantha, was over there. I haven't seen her in a while and she'll be leaving soon for Coast Guard so, it was fun.

December 22- I went to school. We got out at 1 so, it was a messed up day. And it was the last day of the semester so, everything was crazy. We had a Christmas assembly for 3 hours! 3 HOURS! It had people dancing, and singing, and all kinds of stuff. Then, we came back to the room and went to lunch. We were suppose to be watching A Christmas Carol but being 8th graders we do whatever we want! Especially with a sub! Mrs.Gentry's class is at the very beginning of the hall so, I went all the way to the end of the hall to through away my tray! Samantha and I went to Mr.Nemec's class a couple of times and then, the bathroom. Then, I had to go to the home ec room to get the gingerbread house I won. We drew names and I got the one my group made! It looks really cool! I went home and hung out with Haley and Colton for a while and Colton took pictures of me and Haley. They look really cool! Then, I hung out with Colton for a couple minutes. I went inside and waited for my mom to get home.

December 23- Marked 6 months. 6 months without my Ellie.</3 I miss her so much. I woke up early for physical therapy even though I didn't have school. Mom got to come so it was more fun! (Don't tell dad! lol) Mom went back there with me so it was better. Then, we went home and I had a lazy day.

December 24- Christmas Eve!!!! I woke up and hung out for a while. Then, we went over to my grandparent's house. It was my parents, my grandparents, my other grandma (Grandma Sheryl), my 2 aunts (Aunt Rhonda and Tammie), and my cousin (Amber). It was pretty good. Half of the time we talked about old stories about my mom and my aunt's younger days. And my uncle's (Uncle Barry) too! He is in Georgia for work right so, he couldn't make it. We went home and I went to sleep!

December 25- Christmas Day!!! I woke up at 9 and woke my mom and dad up! I went to open my presents with my mom and there were 2 32 inch flat screen tvs sitting in our living room! Daddy had gone and bought us both one!(: I started opening my gifts and the first was my iPod! Even though, I asked for a 32 GB, I got a 64 GB!!!! It's awesome! I got my camera, too! I got 8 dvds! 2 cds! 3 books! A cookie monster hat! 2 jump drives for my laptop! And a lot more stuff I'll post later! It was awesome! Then, to top that off, it started to SNOW! YUP! A WHITE CHRISTMAS!!!!! I was so excited!!!! We were going over to my brother's in laws house and we bumped that up a couple hours because we were afraid we would get snowed in. First, we went to my brother's house so we could hear my niece play her new drum set! You haven't heard loud until you hear an almost 3 year old on a drum set! It was so cute though! Then, we went over to my brother's in laws. We hung out for a while and then, we ate dinner! We opened presents! I got Scrabble Upward and a new jacket! Then, we drove home at 25 mph. Haha. The city didn't put salt on the roads so, the snow was sticking to the roads. We got home safe though and Haley came over. We looked at my new stuff. She got a laptop for Christmas! That's what I got last year. xD. Then, she went home and I went to bed.

December 26- I woke up and it was STILL snowing!! We weren't going anywhere today! I got my new iPod working and then, my mom and I played my new Scrabble game. I laid around for a while after that. Then, we got my new tv working so, I watched Eclipse and Camp Rock 2. Then, I laid around and now I'm typing this about to go to bed. I have to get up early tomorrow, the next day, and Thursday for physical therapy. I have to be there by 9 so, it won't be as bad as 8! I'll probably read some of my Cole book before I go to bed. Rest in peace, Cole<3. He's so precious. I'll post his story about his battle with adrenocortical carcinoma later. He was such a brave 3 year old! Anyways, good night! Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas(:

Sunday-Friday, December 12-17,

I haven't posted anything in a while.With the holidays right around the corner, I find myself being distracted a lot. I'll tell you the truth about this post. I don't remember half of what happened. So, they won't go into any great detail if any at all. I have to go back and read the last post to remember. So, here it goes.

Sunday- HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AUSTIN! So, I think it was a lazy day. I didn't do anything but lay around. I don't remember exactly.

Monday- I woke up and went to physical therapy. I did a bunch of stretches on the bed and then I did a couple on a machine. Then, they hooked me up to this machine and it has sticky pads to stick to your skin. It feels like someone is massaging you and it's vibrating at the same time. It feels really good! But, it made me sick at my stomach both ways. Ugh! But it felt REALLY good! Anyways, then, I went to school. I missed Mrs.Gentry's class (Thank God!). Second period was okay. Third period, we were in Mr.Clayton's room instead of Mr.Nemec's. Mr.Clayton's projector was broken and he needed it so we were in different rooms for both classes. Well, Mr.Nemec's wife was pregnant. In the middle of class, his phone starts going off. His ringtone is "I'm Too Sexy for My Shirt." So, it's playing in the middle of his lesson and he's bobbing his head like a chicken to it! It was so funny! So when it stops he goes over to his phone and looks at who called and it was his wife. She left a voice mail so he listens to it and it says, "Uhhh...I just got out of the doctors office... Uhhh... Call me." So, he calls her and says "Emergency or not?" and she says, "Not, I just wanted to let you know I'll be bringing you lunch." Haha! She was due any day and she calls to tell him that! Home ec was okay. We sewed paper again. Expo was okay. Fourth period we had a lady come and tell us about our classes at the high school and careers and stuff like that. Then, I came home and laid around.

Tuesday- HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KATIE! I woke up at 9! We had a 2 hour delay because it was really cold! Haha! Yep! It was like 15 degrees! So, our classes were all mixed up and this is how it went. 1st- 30 min., 3rd- 30 min., Lunch- 30 min. (normal), Home ec- 45 min. (normal), Expo- 45 min. (normal), 2nd- 25 min., 4th- 25 min.! It was awesome! It makes the day seem a lot shorter! First period we watched movies. Second period was okay. Third period Mr.Nemec wasn't there, hmmm. Anyways, we had a sub and she didn't teach us anything! Oh well! Home ec we started making ginger bread houses! It is so much fun! During expo, I had to take my history test I missed when I checked out last Friday. Then when I was done, I got to go help Mrs.Land with Samantha and Adrienne. It was just putting grades in her grade book. 2nd period we still were putting grades in. 4th period was okay. I came home and went to my grandparents. Then, my uncle called and said he needed a ride home because his truck and his wife's car were in the shop. So, we got him and gave him our car to use until he got his fixed. Then, we had to run by my house because I forgot my medicine. Then, we had to run by my uncle's house because my grandma forgot her billfold in the car. Then, we met my grandpa at Cici's Pizza! It was really good! I ate 3 pieces of pizza, 2 brownies, and 4 cinnamon rolls! They were so good(: Anyways, I went home and laid around.

Wednesday- We had another 2 hour delay. 1st period sucked! We had to take a stupid chapter test and I swear I failed it! She gave us literally 10 minutes to take a 20 question test! WTF?! 3rd period, Mr.Nemec wasn't there again! They had the baby Tuesday night around 9:30 p.m.! They named her Savannah. We got to see pictures of her. She's a cutie! She's so small compared to Mr.Nemec! She weighed 6 lbs. 7 oz. Tiny! Haha! 3rd period sucked! I don't like that sub. Home ec we continued with our houses. Expo was fun. We didn't do anything really. 2nd period was fun!!!!! I was high as the sky! I'm not evening playing! If you put a plastic bag over your mouth and nose and you suck in as hard as you can! OMG! That is amazing! Haha! It was hilarious! I fell out of my chair a couple times! 4th period was fun too! I got into the Geography Bee! We took the test Tuesday and you had to get 25 out of 35 and I got 26! I got one right that NOBODY ALL DAY got! It was inside joke so I knew it! lol! Anyways, it was awesome! Then, I had a BETA meeting after school to talk about convention. I can't wait! It was fun! I'm going Living Literature, the back drop for it, Song Fest, and photography. I can't to get my new camera so I can start taking pictures! I already have a few I'm looking at but hopefully, my new camera will take better pictures. So, I went home and then, went to Katie's. We watched Charlie St.Cloud and I showed her the bag thing. We then went to church. I was high at church. Wow! Haha, not really. Before church, we had to go pick up Jay and Grayson. We also had KJ with us. We got to church then. Then when it was over, we had to run a space heater out to camp. So, we drove out there and dropped it off. We dropped Grayson, Jay, and KJ off and they took me home. It was about 10 so I sat around for a while. And went to bed.

Thursday- It snowed! We got off school! We got about 4 inches. Mostly it was ice though. I woke up at 7:45! On a snow day! It should be illegal! Oh well. It was snowed pretty good when I woke up but didn't last long. It sleeted mainly for the rest of the day. Haley came over for a while wanting me to come outside. We ended up staying inside for an hour and left Colton out in the snow! Haha! Oh well. I didn't feel like going outside. So later, Katie and Grayson came down and I went up to her house. We started to build a snowman but it was really cold so we went inside with Drew. We hung out in the basement playing Guitar Hero and just chilling. I got my Christmas present from Katie! I already knew what I was getting but I had forgotten! lol! I got a pillow that matches my room with peace signs all over it, zebra print duct tape, and Toby Mac's new cd! It's awesome! Then, I came home about 5 before it got really dark and hung out.

Friday- Today, I woke up at 11! Finally, I got to sleep late! Haha! We got another day off of school! My road still hasn't been cleared! People were driving on it yesterday anyways! Haha, Nothing stops them! I've just laid around on the computer. I got Taylor Swift's Christmas cd yesterday as an early Christmas present. My mom didn't think I would want to listen to Christmas music after Christmas. Truth is, I don't care! lol! I've been listening to it over and over. It's really good! I'm about to go watch Eclipse. I haven't seen it in a week!0: That's a long time for me! lol! Anyways, physical therapy was canceled this morning. I go back Tuesday and Thursday of next week at 8 a.m. Anyways, hope everyone has a good day!(:

Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, December 9, 10, and 11,

Well, Thursday I went to school. First period sucked again. Second period was really fun! We had a senior from the high school come down. She wants to be an actress or a 8th grade English teacher so she came down there to teach us some. We did this skit. I was the shoemaker's wife. Christian P. was the shoemaker. Austin was the gentleman. Yoshi was the narrator and Jake and Gray were the elves! It was so much fun! We had like the 6 shortest people in our class up there! It was really fun though! I love plays. Third period was okay. Home ec was okay. Expo was fun kind of. We played silent ball several times and I think the least place I got was 4th. So, it was pretty good! Fourth period was weird because Mr. Shogan. :/ He's such a weirdo! I came home for a while then, went to assisting. Jessica and Rachael were both there! That almost never happens! Anyways, it was fun. The kids haven't started their dance yet because Lisa didn't want to until they came back from Christmas. The next time we go, they will start it. Then, I went to Mickey Ds and came home. Then, I remembered I needed to get Austin's birthday present so, my mom and I left to go to the mall. I got him a shirt from Spencer's and it says "Legalize it" and has a picture of a weed plant and a bracelet to match it that says "Legalize." It was really funny. I hate that he does it and he knows that but it was still cute. Then, we came home and I hit the door frame of my room. I broke 2 of my toes, I think. Then, I watched Eclipse, finished my report for English class, and finished my algebra homework. I went to sleep!

Friday, I went to school again. When I walked in the door, Austin came running toward me wanting his present. He knew that I had gotten him something and he was so excited. His face when he opened it was priceless. It was like a little kid's on Christmas! It was adorable! He put on the shirt and everyone was telling him, he was going to get in trouble. He took it off after a while though and put it in his locker. It was so funny though! First period was fun because we had a sub and she had the old seating chart! So, Samantha, Austin, and I got to sit next to each other again! It was amazing! Second period was fun! We had this project to do on different countries about how they celebrate Christmas or some holiday around this time. It was split up into 8 groups. I had Austin and Chestnut. I did most of the work but that's okay. I had to say a speech in front of the class. Austin talked about the symbols and was suppose to point to where it was on the map but I ended up doing it. And Chestnut said about our real objects. I have this kit that makes lanterns like the Chinese people so I made those and brought them. I did all 7. We hung them on the tree in Mrs.Land's room when we were done. It looks really good! It even has a pinuta (sp?) in it! The people that did Mexico brought it. It was full of jolly ranchers. I got a watermelon and blue rasberry but I traded the watermelon for a grape. Either one works for me. Jason brought Jewish brownie cookies! Those are some of the best things I have put into my mouth! Samantha brought muffins! They were good too! Emily brought some kind of cookies, too. Third period was horrible. We had a chapter test and I think I failed it. Fourth period I checked out to go to an evaluation for physical therapy because the doctor at Duke wanted me to. So, we went there and my therapist, David, did a bunch of measurements and stuff. Then, he showed me 4 different stretches to work on. All of them hurt like crazy!!!! Ugh! I go Mondays and Fridays at 8 for at least 2 weeks. Maybe 3. Then, my mom and I went to DQ and got blizzards! I got a Reese's one and she got the new Reindeer one. Then, we came home and later, I went to Robin's church with Katie for their play practice. I was there until about 10 and then, we had to go to Walmart to get Grayson a Christmas present. Then, we came back to my house and we watched Paranormal Activity until 1 in the morning. And we stayed up talking for a few minutes after that. We went to sleep.

Today, Katie woke me up kind of. It was like 11. Haha. We got up and watched the ending of Eclipse that she feel asleep watching last week. And then, her dad called and was going to take her down to Camp Selah and shoot his new shotgun. I wanted to go but we were going to put up the tree. So, me and my dad put the limbs on it while my mom's gone Christmas shopping. I know she's going to get me something, too! Aha, I can't wait for Christmas! I've asked for a new iPod and camera. Now, I'm sitting here. I'm kind of tired and I have to pee. So, I'll get off here and go pee. Hope everyone has a good day.

Wednesday, December 8,

Today, I woke up and got on the bus. It was boring. First period sucked. From now on it will be. Mrs.Gentry moved Austin and Samantha away from me and now I have stupid Andrew and Dillion. Everyone around me is stupid school wise. I have a feeling Tuesday when we take our chapter test I will have some cheaters. Well, then, I'm going to get her to move me so, she can't keep me away from my friends for long! Ugh, I hate her! Second period was fun. We were suppose to be working on our project but we never did! Austin, Chestnut, and I talked the whole time. I colored some of the Chinese symbols if that counts! Third period was okay. We just did some boring study guide worksheets. Home ec sucked. Mrs.Gimbel was there and we had to do stupid worksheets. Expo SUCKED! At first it was fun! We played a girls game of silent ball and I WON! Then, the guys played a game and Brandon won. Then, me and him faced each other and he won.): Oh well! We then played a whole game class and I came in 2nd. Taylor won. Then, they came over the intercom and said the BETA meeting was canceled so, I had to go call my dad. When I got back, we were playing thumbs up and they were going crazy. We then played four corners and they got a little crazy and Mrs.Gentry made us sit down. We were suppose to have 5 minutes of silent but thanks to Lee we had to read out of the health book and they still wouldn't shut up. Now, we have to do a report on it for homework. Ugh! Well, fourth period was okay. Boring as usual. I came home and sat around on the computer. That brings me up until now. Once I'm done with this and making me a Tumblr I'm going to watch Eclipse. I'm skipping dance tonight but thankfully, we won't do anything new because we would have forgotten it by January. This is our last week. I'll go tomorrow for assisting but we'll see if I stay for my other classes. I'll probably will try to at least. Well, I'm going to go finish it up.

Still trying to make it in this crazy world,

P.S.- I'm SOOOOOO cold right now! It's freezingggg! Summer, I miss you<3 Come back!

Wednesday-Tuesday, December 1-7.

 I'm soooo overdue to post! My bad! The days have just gotten away from me.

Wednesday- My granny dropped me of at school. Her and my papa left right after that to go to Oklahoma. My granny's family lives out there. That's where she's from originally, so she went out there to visit the family. We went in June this year and will probably go again next year. I can't believe it's December already! Where did this year go?! I can tell you one thing, this year has been the best year of my life. I hope next year is even better! 1st period was okay. Second period was okay. Third period was okay. Home ec was fun! Jake and DeAsia brought biscuits to make cinnamon bubble ring! It was so good! I finished gym for this 3 weeks so, I went to Mrs.Clayton's class for expo. We played Scrabble Upword. I love that game! Last period was okay. I came home watched tv and read my book some then, got ready for dance. I had it for 2 hours. I had ballet first and then tap. I was really tired afterward. Anyway, we stopped by McDonald's and I got a happy meal with a large tea. My mom got a McDouble which they didn't even put in there! So, she paid for a McDouble and didn't get it! We also got a bag of ice. Then, we came home. She was so mad but she got over it. I ate and watched tv for a bit and then went to bed.

Thursday- I went to school. First period sucked! Austin got 2 days of ALC for screaming in the cafeteria again. The next time he does it, he's going to get suspended. That will suck! I know he will eventually though. He's just like that. Second period sucked, too! Third was alright. Home ec was too. Expo was fun! We watched funny videos! It was hilarious! Last period was okay. I came home played on the computer some and then got ready for dance again. I had it for 3 hours. First, I had to assist. I help with a 3 and 4 year old class so I did that. And then, I had modern and jazz.We went to McDonald's so my mom could get the McDouble she wanted. I got a tea. I did homework and went to bed.

Friday- I went to school. First period sucked. Second period the same. Third period was okay. Home ec was okay. Expo was okay. Fourth period was too. I came home and laid around. Ate supper, and watched tv. Read my book too. It was a boring day.

Saturday- I had a lazy morning. I went up to Katie's that afternoon and we went to Camp Selah for our Christmas dinner at church. It was really fun! We had this really good group called the Needhams. They were really good! (they had a really hot son, too! lol) They did really good! I went home and got my stuff to go to Katie's house to spend the night. We watched Eclipse at 1 in the morning and both of us fell asleep before it was even over! Haha.

Sunday- We woke up and the root menu was on the tv screen. Well, we snuck that movie because her parents don't let her watch that stuff. So, we got caught by her dad. Thankfully, he didn't tell her mom. She would have flipped! We went to church and the Needhams did their stuff again. We went to San Marcos afterward! It was really good! I came home and laid around watching Eclipse. Then, I went to bed.

Monday- I went to school again. First period was okay. Second was okay, too. Third period was boring. Home ec sucked. We had to do these career things and I had to help the special needs kid and I didn't get any of my work done. Expo was fun. We played games and we never do that in Mrs.Gentry's class. Fourth period sucked because I had a headache the whole time. I came home watched Eclipse more and went to bed.

Tuesday- I got up hurting. I went to school anyways. First period sucked because Austin wasn't there again and I was hurting really bad. He said he didn't feel like coming today. Second period, I went to the nurse and checked out. I came home and watched Eclipse 3 times. I went back to my room and watched tv some and that leads me up until now. I'm exhausted. I'm going to go to bed as soon as finish this. I hope I feel better tomorrow. Well, I'm going to go. I'm not going to post prayer request because I'm just too tired. Hope everyone had a good day. And I'll leave you with that.

Tuesday, November 30,

Well, today I woke up and had 2 rolls before I went off to school. First period sucked. We had this big chapter test. I hate those things. I did get on it most likely anyway. I usually study right before it but today I just didn't feel like it. I have listened to this lesson the most out of all the ones we have gone over so I'm sure it's good anyway. Second period was fun. We did one little worksheet that took about 10 minutes. Then, we changed seats around. I didn't move but that's because I sit next to Samantha and Austin already! They both are 2 of my best friends! I don't ever want to move! I sit next to them in 1st period and 4th period I sit next to Samantha. Austin isn't in my 3rd or 4th though. Home ec was okay. I talked to Jake a lot again. Him and AJ are the funniest! You may wonder why I help AJ. Well, AJ has some developmental delays and in home ec I help him with his work and try to get him involved. So, home ec is always interesting. Gym was okay. We had activity day again! Yay! And it was my last day until January! For some people, it was their last for middle school. They will take a foreign language next semester and will be in either Spanish or French. I had the choose but I didn't want to do one. I wanted home ec and computer skills next semester will always be a high school credit. I'm taking Algebra 1, too, so I don't want to take 3 high school classes. Anyways, fourth period sucked. Those stupid boys need to grow up. They wouldn't shut up! We didn't do anything but a little worksheet though. Then, I came over to my grandparents and ate dinner. I had 2 chicken legs, mashed potatoes, and an ear of corn. It was good!(: That brings me up to right now! I'm listening to Taylor Swift and typing this. I want to read my book some but it can wait.

Prayer request (this does not include the ones from yesterday):
Nathan Moran- Rhabdomyosarcoma cancer, remission, age 1
Kenny Moffit- Osteosarcoma bone cancer, relapsed 7 times
Chloe Wadel- Brain cancer, sent home on hospice, age 1

P.S. I wrote this Tuesday but never got it posted. Sorry for the delay.
