Randomness

Hi, sorry I haven't updated in FOREVER, the Internet was down all yesterday. =-(

Swimming on Thursday was GREAT because we didn't do any hard stuff- we just did drills and stuff, only 50s and we didn't need the clock, which was awesome, because I hadn't been to practice for like, two weeks before then. And yesterday the only thing we did was dryland, warm up and then we played SHARKS AND MINNOWS the entire time. It was amazing. But we had to do wall sits, and I hate wall sits. And when we were playing S&M Dave made it a rule that you could drag people up to the surface. As you can imagine (if you know how the game works) it was really quite painful because that game the guys were the Sharks. Collin, John and Juan (this weird freaky guy) all decided to show up on the same day, and it was really violent and annoying because there were only six Minnows, and all three guys would drag one person up each round. But besides that, it was really fun, cause Sydnie was there, but she had to leave early. =-(

And Ms. Chea sent out a huge email today! But it's really sad, because Ms. Chea was really nice and cool. And I kinda want school to start really soon, because I can't wait to see everyone. And I really wanna we in tons of classes with everybody, and I want to know which teachers I'm gonna have...... It's NOT fair, because my cousin in Norway gets a class list and knows which teacher he's gonna get for the next year at the end of the school year, so he gets to know all summer.

And I'm also really excited for San Diego, because the Yans are going the same week as us, and I've only seen them once in TWO YEARS (because "Auntie" Alice has been so sick and "Uncle" Jerry's dad was also really sick, and sad stuff like that) and they're really good friends, and I've known then since, forever, really. So yeah. And we recently saw the Sanders and the Tus, and it was really fun, because Leana and Alison are really good friends, and Rachel is SO BIG now (she's 8, I think).

And soooooo many people are in mission trips in Uganda now, the Chinens, the Morgans, the Barthels, FOCus people...... It's kinda sad, because a lot of my church friends are gone and stuff, and I'm gonna be in San Diego with Uncle Dave (ugh. I don't really LOVE my uncle all that much....) the week they get back. AND ECLIPSE IS COMING OUT IN TWO DAYS ON AUGUST 7!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait. The other day (because Oma decided to randomly send me a $50 gift card in the mail) I went to Barnes & Noble and bought Twilight. And a ton of girls at Westminster Woods were reading Twilight. So yeah. I'm excited. Something to look forward to. And I checked out this great book at the library, but it's really short, so I finished it really soon. I really like the writer's style of writing. (The book's The Fruit Bowl Project)

And I babysat for Keiko and Ethan on Thursday and Monday I'm babysitting a little girl on my old block. And the house passed an inspection, so they're starting to work on putting the subfloor and insulation in, and there's part of a wall up! Hopefully it'll be built soon.

Sorry this entry's just really random stuff. =-D
