Oh, hey there Nigel.
Anyways, I just wanted to get something up before I want past a week.
Today is the 3rd anniversary of The Dark Knight!!! (No, I still won't let it go...) And I'm ashamed to say that I can't actually watch it like I have in past years. ):
I'm a terrible fan!
Aside from that, I have done anything particularly news-worthy.
All I've really done is babysit, draw and watch Star Trek.
Why yes, I am a loser, thanks for noticing.
Haha, not really. Well, kind of...
Look I promised I'd be completely honest, so that's what I'm going to do.
Being completely honest, I didn't really have a good time.
The talks were generic, boring, and not at all compelling or thought provoking. I was really disappointed, because I was expecting a lot more substance in these talks.
And the chastity talk, boy was that fun.
The music was, well, to put it lightly, it was very christian music. So yeah, not really my style. And they sure did play a lot of it. Oh, so much music...
The food made me sick. And when I say sick, I mean literally sick. The orange juice gave me heartburn, the burger almost made me puke, and everything else just made me feel nauseous. There wasn't a single healthy thing to eat, and I felt really gross after every "meal."
And to top it all off, there was this really stupid drama surrounding me. Heck, the drama was ABOUT me.
I can't really tell you the whole story, but I'll just say this; it was one of the most embarrassing experiences of my life. No joke. The story just get's worse and worse every time I hear about it. It kind of ruined whatever fun I did end up having on the trip.
I don't know if this is too brutality honest, I don't know if it sounds like I'm being a downer, but I did not have a good weekend. I was sick, tired, and the drama was unbelievable.
I've never been more happy to be home.
I've had a very good weekend so far.
On Thursday night Lilly and I had a sleepover at our friend Dehja's house. We watched random movies and Lilly acted like a total spazz. It was fun.
On Friday I spent most of the day with my mom. We went shopping and just talked. Then we met my dad for a nice lunch. When we got back home we all went to the pool. It was a really, really good day.
Yesterday we went to my Abuelo and Abuela's house to celebrate my Abuela's birthday. We had a great lunch, and I had a great time visiting with my family, (I always do.)
Today we're going to the grocery store, (Wegmans!) and other than that I don't know yet.
Tomorrow is the 4th of course, so we're going to see fireworks with some friends.
My brother Sam's birthday is this week! He's finally going to be 13! I can hardly believe it! And just when I'm feeling a little more sentimental than usual. The years just roll by don't they?
This coming weekend Lilly and I are going to a Youth Conference in Ohio. I have kind of mixed feelings about going, (to be completely honest I don't really want to go at all,) but my mom says I'm supposed to go with an open mind. I'll tell you how it went when I get back, and I'll be completely honest, no sugar-coating it.
I love Summer.
