Girls' Camp!

Journal: Girls' Camp was awesome. We didn't even stay in a tent. beat that, guys. We stayed in an awesome cabin that was bigger than my house. We went rappelling on Saturday. my sister and I made the top 3 worst crashes. I'll have to post pictures of mine when we put them on the compy. Everyone slipped in the exact same place. I ended up upside-down. freaked me out so bad that when i got to the bottom it hurt to open my hands due to my white-knuckle death-grip.
The beehives got attacked by an invisible bat. We were sitting there and we heard screaming. we ran out and the beehives were all screaming about a bat in their room. no one saw it after that, and even the girls still cowering in the corner of the room couldn't say where it was.
I tripped on the hike. the young women's leaders were very escited for a chance to use their first aid stuff and amde me stop so they could apply liquid bandaids. my shoulder still hurts.
Awesome pranks I helped pull: lock all the doors and the snipe hunt. Katie was furious about the snipe hunt. She doesn't like to be fooled.
We watched Chrissa: An American Girl. We got a little to into the movie. It was about a girl who was being bullied and we were shouting at her and insisting we were about to go into the movie and kill Tara. A mob of 30 teenage girls against one fourth grader. right.
We also had a warline of cows against us, and found 10 bones in the river. We named the bones: Don, Neck, Tie, Can, Stan, Bone Buddy, Butt, Kick, Blade, ...and another I can't seem to remember. we told my sister we put them in her sleeping bag and she freaked. She's such a prep. There's probably other stuff, but I can't think of it now.
My cousin's farewell was today. he said he didn't think this many people would be there (3 missionaries at once) then quoted a scripture from king benjamin about how there were so many people they couldn't here and said deacons would be copying down anything worthwhile for people at the back to read. sure no one thought there'd be that many, which is why you had the scripture ready, right?
My sister just threw a tape measure at me because I didn't want her reading over my shoulder. she's just charming, isn't she? now my arm hurts.

Thought: We're probably the only state where being a mother is not only a perfectly acceptable carreer option, but practically a No Duh thing, you know?

Review: Mall Cop. So stinking funny. "We don't have an oath." "I sort of made up my own. it's on a plaque in my room."

I need to post already cuz I'm a slacker

Journal: Well, school's out. that's cool. I hope everyone is having a great summer so far. I set up a website. *smile* it was fun. The thing with not posting is when I get on I have nothing to say. You'd think it would make me have more to say, but it doesn't. I just don't put any details about anything. I need to change that.

Thought: *static buzzing in my brain*

Review: We watched X-men on monday. I thought it was awesome. Storm's line was kind of anti-climactic, though. "do you know what happens to a toad when it's struck by lightning? The same thing that happens to everything else." He's got to be thinking: seriously? that's the line I'm gong out on?

This post was way short. Deal.

The man in the lavender suit

Journal: We finished our science end of levels. I have to do my Math and Biology end of levels this week (I have two science classes.) I also have my spanish and computer tech tests, I don't know when they are. I have two and a half weeks left of school. Nyah!
I tried out for the talent show, but I didn't make it. I'm kinda sad, but not really. I think my tryout was the worst I've ever played that song. If that was me panicking because one person was listening, what would I have done in front of my whole school. Also, I practiced to much. If I do something too many times, I can't do it right, don't know why, I'm just weird like that.

Thought: English is such a stupid language! seriously: i before e, except after c or when sounding like as in neighbor or weigh. And on weekends, and holidays, and throughout may, and you'll always be wrong, no matter what you say! It's all the fault of the man in the lavender suit! seriously, though, I think some words are designed purely to make fun of what they describe. lisp? seriously? "I have a really bad lithp." are you trying to torment whoever has it? and isn't attention deficit hyper disorder a bit of a long name for a condition that makes it so you can't focus? and how about abbreviate? why do we use such a long word to mean making words shorter?! About the lavender suit thing: in grade 6 someone asked the teacher why english was so confusing. He said "there's a man in a lvaender suit, who lives in a lime green room who makes up all these stupid rules for english and then breaks them." about half the class bought it, too. We should totally try to spread that just to see how far it gets.

Review: Tennis Shoes series. It is awesome! It's about Some people who find this cave that transports them back to nephite times (for those who don't know what that is, it's from the book of mormon. My religion). Later they find another cave that transports them to biblical times. There's some scripture stuff, but a lot of it is really just action and adventure.
