I am excited to announce that I got a facebook account and if you have one too, and I know who you are, we can be friends! If you don't have a facebook, you should get one because it is totally fun! Plus you can stay in touch with all of your friends on the planet.

Only one week left!!!
Exactly one week from today, on the sixteenth of July, is a day you don't want to miss, because... it... is... my... BIRTHDAY!!!!!! I am turning 14! I know, it's crazy. I don't really know if I am doing anything on my birthday but I'm hoping for breakfast in bed. It's a tradition, at least in my family, to have the ultimate, whatever you want, homemade, breakfast in bed. I love it. It always makes me feel special. Plus, I always have great memories from those breakfasts... ahh, the memories. =)
This year I want to do something a little differently. Often around birthdays, we get kind of greedy and a little selfish. Instead of all of that, I want to give back to God, thank him for all that He's given me. Sure I can do that on a regular bases, but I especially want to make sure that I don't lose focus of God in a time like this, where everything seems to be self-centered. I made a list of 14 things i want to do. Some of which include, cleaning someones yard for no pay, or make recycled art that praises God. If you have any cool ideas, email me or post a comment. I'd love to have other's input.
TTFN Ta Ta for Now :)

My summer addiction
They say the first step ingetting rid of an addiction, is realizing you have one. Well I have come to realize that not only do I have an obsession but an addiction. I know, I know, I can't let it get out of hand or i'll have to seek medical help, but I can handle this, I can. I think...
It all started on a boring summers day at home. The only other person home was my sister Kelsey and she was upstairs, reading. I was bored out of my mind so I decided to try it. It couldn't hurt. Right? I typed in those two magical words and BAM! I pressed the enter button and millions of results filled my screen. I chose on of the first links, that seemed the most reliable for my needs. i clicked and KABOOM! there it was. The colors flooded my eyes, the motion captivated my body and mind, it was exhilerating. Each arrow I pressed moved the pieces, building rows, creating lines, advancing my score. My obsession or addiction, you may say, came to the point that I was clicking those arrows everyday, constantly trying to defeat my personal record, at every chance I had. For a few nights in a row, I even went into a state of "post-tetris-play-mode", where I invisioned the screen and all of the pieces forming into place and what I would do to keep my high score in different challenging situations. I am addicted to free tetris. (click on free tetris to play)
