Devil's Lake trip 2010

Oh my! What a fun day. :) 3 outdoor adventure classes went up to Baraboo, Wisconsin to Devil's Lake. We had a difficult hike but we were with friends so it wasn't too bad. Justin and I took our own nature hike and ended up around civilization. Well not really, just vending machines and stuff. Here is a major fail.

Seriously who puts two guys bathrooms next to each other? The other side had girls bathrooms and they were both locked. Why would you lock a bathroom? Wisconsinites have no common sense. 

The beach where all the "civilization" was located had gnats. Pesky little creatures. They were flying at our faces. So we walked over towards the railroads.

That, my children, is called a "banjo" signal. Justin taught me that. Ahaha!

So overall, it was terrific. My only complaint is that my legs hurt like crazy and my face is sun burnt. Not attractive. Oh well. This trip was worth every minute of it. :)

Happy Easter

APRIL FOOLS DAY YA FOOL!

Hey all. Ten minutes into the first day of April. My shoulders are still a bit sore from the shots I got yesterday. Gardasil in the left because they didn't know how I'd react, and two more in the right. They said that the Gardasil shot hurts like a mofo, but I was fine. I think the two shot in the right combined hurts more. Anyway, I'm just lying in bed talking to Arthur dearest and Jean-Luc. I can see the bright moon through my blinds. The weather today was really nice. It was in the lower 70s. Tomorrow even warmer. Thank you to the Christians. We have Friday off because of you. :) I hope it's just as warm. Unseasonably warm this year. I don't understand why. We also had a really short winter. And we're in Illinois. Not really complaining though. I love this. I'll spend a lot of time outside tomorrow because I won't have to do homework. Hehe ^_^

Good night lovelies! peace and happiness all around.

p.s. My heart goes out to the family of Eddie Garcia. He was a transferred senior at Fremd High School. Over the spring break he was stabbed and killed during a heated argument over a girl. His life was far too short. He will be taken care of in the heavens. God bless you child.

I'm Back!

Hi loves. I know I haven't been keeping up as I promised. I just always forget. Today was a rather riotous day. I went to Chicago with my mom, her piano student, and her student's mom. We went to Pandas Express for dinner. After dinner, Mrs. Toda checked her purse and her wallet was missing. It wasn't even in her pockets. It had been stolen! I'm guessing it was the big African American woman sitting behind her. It wouldn't have been too hard to reach around the take the wallet. I filed a police report, and Mrs. Toda told her husband to cancel all of the credit cards. Then she turned off her phone for the Mitsuko Uchida concert at the Orchestra Hall. When Mrs. Toda called her husband during the intermission, she found out that the person who stole it had bought a digital camera and other miscellaneous things at Target. Scary stuff.

The lesson to take away? Arthur says "keep your shit close when you're in the city!"

I'm on my way home from the northwestern symphonic wind ensemble concert. I'm on the bus with other tri-m (modern music masters) music honors society. Awesome concert! Mallory thompson was an amazing conductor. :D love!

Hia

Sowwy. I haven't been on since january. I'm still feeling a little down in the dumps. I don't know why. But now I can't miss any school. *sad face* I don't want to take the senior finals so unless i want to, i can't miss more than 3 days. Blah! Anywhozzle, I have a 3 page paper to write about biological evolution. My stand point being that it is the only explanation for our existence on this earth.

Today I did one of bodyrock.tv workouts, and I'm burning! I will start my 30 day sugarfree challenge. The only thing sugarwise would be my gum. No more candy, no sugary drinks, no dark chocolate. I'm gonna die. Sometime today, I'll go out and buy protein powder to put into my water after workouts. Just wait. I'll be an inch or two slimmer by summer. I'll make it happen! Peace out ya'll!

Blah

What a day. I woke up sick this morning with a splitting headache. My inner vampire was coming through. I cringed at light. Mom tried to wake me up, but I just rolled over and cried. She was a little annoyed, but what was I gonna do? She had me call the attendance office to call in sick. Then I just fell back asleep. woke up again around 11 to eat. I still wasn't feeling my best but I wanted to go to choir. Now I'm sitting in the lab for English. I need to revamp 2 essays, write an intro and conclusion for the portfolio, and organize the journals. >_< wtf.
