Tweet My Happiest Childhood Memory (English thing) I don’t have one specific memory, but I do have memories that I will never forget. Probably my two happiest memories are barbies and ballet. My best friend Megan and I would play barbies for hours. We built houses and lives for them, marrying them off and planning different events for them. Summer pool parties, dances(I was little), and many other things. I know, most of you never experienced this joy, but it was was of my favorite things to do. I finally broke the habit in 6th grade, although there are times I still contemplate getting them all out. My second favorite…

Darn Computers
Tweet Darn Computers I’m trying to do homework and check my e-mail, but my retarded computer is running so slow..it won’t do anything!! It’s probably cuz my dad is downloading songs, but it’s frustrating. Anyways, I really did have a reason for posting other then ranting over my slow computer..just thought I would leave you all with this thought.. What we think about is what we talk about; What we talk about is what we do; What we do is who we become

Friday night laughs:)
Tweet Friday night laughs:) Friends are awesome..they are always there to make you laugh or encourage you. I have so many awesome friends, and periodically we like to get together and hang out. This usually brings out many sides of people you didn’t know existed. Such as Jon’s burping..well, I suppose we could have figured that one out.. and his great effort to tip the pizza delivery girl. and micah’s tips on how to burp..I don’t think flapping like a bird really works. Or take Adam for example, he’s always throwing in surprises. (no more needs to be said) And I don’t think anyone will forget Kelly’s “Is He Hot?”…

The Room Suddenly Became Quiet
Tweet The Room Suddenly Became Quiet The room suddenly became quiet as Mr.Grass came over the loudspeaker saying he had a very important annoucement. Usually Mr.Grass’ important annoucements were about people he needed to see or something we needed to improve on, however this day was different. The tone in his voice was different, more concerned and shaky. There was something terribly wrong. As he started, he explained that one of the twin towers had been hit by a plane. Our biology class was silent. A very rare thing in my class, but that day you could have heard a pin drop. He continued telling us the events that had…

Survivor
Tweet Well, it’s Thursday again.My favorite night of the week..:) And although you all think I’m crazy for loving survivor, I’m going to keep you updated anyways. The two tribes this go around are Drake and Morgan. Tonight Drake came out on top-winning both the reward and immunity challenges. So Morgan went off to Tribal Council again and voted off Skinny Ryan. 2 survivors gone, 14 more to go. So far Morgan has lost every challenge. And I am rooting for the Drake tribe! 🙂 Anyways, I shall leave you all until next week..

My Imaginary Friend
Tweet Ok, I’ve lost this dumb post twice and I’m mad. It was really good and really close to 100 words and now I have to start over. I have no idea what to say, I never had an imaginary friend that I named. See I always had lots of imaginary friends. I talked to them and told them all about whatever was bothering me. One day my mom walked out and said, “Amanda who are you talking to?” Well, embarassed, I said no one and lowered my voice. I always liked having imaginary friends. They never told your secrets and never had anything bad to say. They would listen…

CIT
Tweet Well, it’s storming really hard outside and the rain reminded me of camp this summer. I was at the Wilds for two weeks in their CIT program, and it was a blast. I made so many awesome friends and have so many memories. Such as many, many meals in the pouring rain. And can anyone say freaky aliens hiding in the woods. I don’t think I have ever been more scared in my life. But with all the fun times, came many many times for spiritual growth and challenge. God did so much in my life during those two weeks..I can truly say they were life-changing. Not only did…

My Greatest Fear
Tweet Well, Our topic today is our greatest fear. And I can’t really think of my greatest fear. One that is high on my list is being kidnapped by some weird guy. (I’ll let you ponder what else could happen) I guess I have watched too many shows about that. Who knows, although not very many people my age seem to get kidnapped. I also have a great fear of heights. For some odd reason, this has plagued me for many years. And it comes up at the oddest times. Like the one time a few of my fellow classmates thought it would be funny to push Amanda around the…

Some Day
Tweet You ever have one of those days that wasn’t really bad, but wasn’t really good? The kind you look back over and think, man, I blew that test or I have so much homework. You can’t really seem to recall much good in them, however sometimes you just have to search a little harder. I was sitting here tonight dwelling on what in my mind was a bad day, and all of a sudden I remembered what a fun cross country practice we had. And how most of teachers seemed to be in good moods today. And the many good conversations and laughs I had with my friends. In…
