2005: Every day is one step closer to ________.

Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:25,27,34

i ran 3.5 miles the other night. it felt good.

steph and i talked on the phone last night for like an hour. it was a good conversation, and yet again steph- i love our friendship! :)

ya know whats funny.....when they have commercials for medecine on tv, and they have one person talk about it and then when they're done talking, they just sit there and try to look hot n sexy for like 3 seconds while the camera is just on them......its funny because usually its middle-aged people, and frankly, i dont find middle-aged people hot n sexy.......

i have to pick a new number for soccer, a number from 2-7, and not 6.....what do u think i should choose? i'm leaning towards 4......

wow....new meeting format for student council. very productive.

ya know what else is funny? on sunday we had a game, me robin and rachel were the only ones to show up. so we asked caitlyn dodge from dominican who is totally and completely godly if she could play with us, she said no. she asked some of her teammates if they could and they didnt say anything because they don't like us, which is rather funny. SO THEN, i asked these girls i saw, who i didnt know, if they could play with us, and they said yes. so, 4 of them came and played, and it was amazing. we had fun, even thought we didnt know each other! and then 1/2 way through the game 2 other girls came. way fun! i love it how some people love the game so much. and the girls that played with us, it was their 3rd game in a row. wow, i love them. in the end, we won 4-2 BOOYAH!!!!

SOCCER STARTS IN 19 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!! HOPE SOME OF YOU CAN MAKE IT OUT TO A GAME- ESPECIALLY WHEN WE PLAY PREP: APRIL 27TH, 3:30, AT KETTLE!!!!!
note to steph~ you better go out!!!!

i miss waterskiing :(

well, take care all of you..........miss some of you, love you all!

wow it has been one AMAZING weekend......

So Saturday at the dance....we had a swell time. Steph and I thoroughly enjoyed playing tricks on people.....lol. we enjoyed drinking our soda and watching people dance. then steph got a flower from mike tews....no comment. "You are so beautiful.....to me.....can't you see?!?!" ha ha so fun.
Rachel and I left at about 9:00. we came home, ate some candy...got in our jammies, and chatted a lil with my rents. we then scavenged through the *Truth or Dare Jenga* pieces. it was a titillating time.

We called Robin and told her we werent coming. yes, we're lazy, so scratch that game. went to church, then made steph's calendar, which I totally love. It took me forever, and we had company over. Angie came over while I was still working which was rather distracting, but yet a fun time. I frantically managed to finish and laminate the calendar......angie picked out my outfit.....wash my hair in the tub.....pack my stuff....grab all the t-shirts.....get $ from dad.....blow dry my hair and try to make myself look semi-presentable.....angie punched the holes in the calendar.....put pics in the frame and wrap it.....get out the door and on my way w/o breaking a bone while trying to run on the ice to the car with heels on. wow what a mouthfull......

my life is no where near busy!! :)

So Steph opened her presents, and we played catch phrase in the basement. We came up to go to applebees and her mom replies with "Here's your suprise....*your chariot awaits*" we look and sitting in the driveway is none other than a white stretch limo.....steph cried, we all screamed......i think everyone was on the verge of tears. wow it was AWESOME.....I've never been in limo, and that one had the colored lights, bar, tv, strobe lights...and so on. we went picture crazy and everyone was going wacko!!the lady at the gas station was very rude.
rachel, megan, britt, and i stuck our heads out the window.....i felt like a dog. lol. it was totally awesome!! wow. i'm still.......just wow.


applebees was wonderful when like the whole restaurant was staring at us get out of the limo. our waiter WAS a geek........our waiter BECAME a geek with my phone number......THANKS GUYS :-p my friends thought it funny to leave my name and phone number with the bill.......
*Stacie's mom*

We went back to steph's and watched Zoolander.....very funny movie. Mel's mom picked us up in "shifts" lol. ha ha ha.

mel's hot tub was amazing. i got my foot almost frozen to the trampoline pole. ouch.
advice: don't go in the snow and on a trampoline when you are wet. we slept with table cloths.
*fat hobbit* lmao!!!
classic line: Brittany-"What's a laxative??" HA HA HA HA I STILL LOVE YOU HUN!! lol

we woke steph up......and took her to breakfast, just to profess our love to her! I LOVE YOU STEPHANIE! the grandma's were sad we didn't invite them to our pj party. and one of them is going to be 90 in 2 weeks! lol. ask to see the video tape. it was a very good breakfast. mel's house again and we just basically laid around. i went home.

basically didn't do much of anything for the rest of the day. I fell asleep doing my religion. I fell asleep again a couple hours later in the same position with a pen sticking out of my mouth, yet again doing my religion....hmmm i wonder if that's a hint at anything.

and here i am today at school....we suprised steph with our:
Front: "Happy Birthday (or birtday in britts case) Steph"
Back: *16* SWEET
shirts. they are saweet. wowzers.......

random: i miss marcus.....havent seen him in like almost 2 weeks......

I miss all you camp people dearly and i can't wait until the teen retreat!!
SOCCER IS GOING TO BE TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY __________(you fill in the blank) hope some of you can come to our games! :)

i should probably get going sometime this year..........
love and miss everyone!
em

p.s. mr. bowe took the call. that is sad sad news. :(

if you found a cardboard tube in your locker wednesday, it wasn't steph and i, i totally swear!

we got our new jerseys.....they are totally AWESOME!!! I AM PUMPED......except for the whole liner in the shorts thing....its GROSS!!! PENIS LINER PENIS LINER....

my parents and i got into this huge argument,,,,like for 2 hours, and i just cried and cried endlessly. it was sad.....

survivor on thursday......was good. jenna left, i felt bad for her. it was sad,,,i am still awaiting beth's appearance on survivor and i will of course support her totally.....all i ask is that when she wins the million, she will buy me a new baby grand piano...thanks beth! ;)

my xiphisternum hurts really bad........

friday was a breathtaking, electrifying, exhilarating, intoxicating, thrilling, titillating, spastic day..........
i went over to rachels, we looked at the scrap book and reminisced......then we made these awesome shakes with oreos, ice cream, and milk....they were amazing!!
we waited for steph, talked about some provocative things, then ate our pizza. stephanie came over and we had an amazing time.
read steph's blog and it will explain the super-de-duper hyjacking the bus plan we had.
we then planned to steal a cart with my jeep. we will put hosiery over our heads, and play the mission impossible theme song blasting out of my car as the car bounces around. the whole parking lot will be looking at us as we steal the cart.....the cops will arrest us and my dad will laugh at us when we are in jail......and rachel will say "bum-mer" lol just wait for the mug-shots! WE ARE GOING TO STEAL A CART!!!

this summer we are going to protest about the price of lettuce.......we are going to stand on the corner in west bend with signs of large lettuces with sad faces. we will be dressed up as: a carrot, a lettuce, and a dressing bottle....people will throw tomoatoes at us to complete our salad, and we will eat the tomatoes. we will shout this out in unison.........
"Don't be a savage, give us our cabbage..."
"we eat lettuce to stay healthy, but the prices are too wealthy...."
"lettuce is the anti-vegetable....."

then edward and tim came over.....we went outside in the snow......lol we jumped off of the pool deck, but rachel kicked me in the head...it hurt. she then tried to tackle me, i didnt see her, but i moved and she tripped over me. it was funny. we jumped off the pool deck and got stuck in the snow....it was very fun. we tried to hide from tim and eddie....."THEY CAN'T SEE US!!" i had snow in my pants from my knees all the way down to my feet, it was freezing.....!

we watched a walk to remember and taught tim and eddie how to treat a girl....eddie passed with flying colors....here are some things we taught him:
do anything for a girl, kisses on the cheek and neck and forehead, always hug her and never let her go, visit her when she's sick, always stand up for her and get in fights for her, bring her unexpected gifts and flowers are always a big plus, hold her hand in public, dont be embarrassed of her in front of your friends, do romantic things even if you don't want to-act like you want to atleast, tell her that you love her because you never know when it might be too late, comfort her when she cries, if she is sad on the phone don't let her hang up until she is truly o.k., don't force her to do anything, share your feelings and what you feel towards her often because it makes her feel special...and there are some more but ask Eddy because Rachel, Steph, and I taught him everything he knows. But if you ever do any of these things you will get BIG points!!!! (wink wink) ha ha
it was a really good talk with Tim and eddie....and steph slept! lol

we watched the little mermaid this morning! it was awesome....:) very good movie......

tim and eddie came over today we played foosball, sledded, and and played video games and pool......
I have to go to school today for student council set up.....i should get goin, but i miss you all and have a super valentines day.......i miss marcus :'(
love you all..........em

steph was sick yesterday....bummer.
its her birthday monday!!! WOO HOOO STEPHANIE!!! :)

i was confronted by rachel to go to a party, after our soccer tournament, where there will be drinking... her comment was "we dont have to be around that stuff" lol this is a made up scenario...good times in health.

pretty kitty....fat cow......if you ever need a picture of a cow, call me up, i'm always ready ;) HA HA. our book was amazing, we should be authors and come up with pet names (fake names).

i miss angie.
oh man, camp is in 30 days.....

im thinking.......oh yes
so we had student council today. it was a very VERY frusturating meeting....so much went wrong, we are so unorganized it isnt even funny. we tried to figure out the dance, that really didnt get anywhere, then the flowers were all insane, then the marker ink was all gone and there was like 2 ft. of paper for steph and i to make a sign, yeah that worked wonderfully....GRRR
people just dont understand how much effort we put into stuff. like today in religion when people were goofing around for the compatability quiz, gosh i just wanted to scream..... and then "blame student council..." lol

I always enjoy good times with good friends.

Friday night was a good ol’ time with Rachel as usual. We made some things, ate some food, and played guesstures with my family. One word my mom had was “belly flop”, so having the photographic memory I do, I can still see her basically flopping on the floor. SUPER FUNNY.

Saturday, I had to help with pizza making for youth group at church at 8:30. Rachel, being the sweetheart she is, came and helped  Terrance and DJ were very amusing when they sang their version of “oompa loompa” he he. Terrance then licked the sauce off the table…good times are never forgotten. We came home and finished what we were making, and Rachel went home. I worked on my health a little, and ate dinner.

Ok, so my Grandpa told my dad we should see the movie Whale Rider. Taking his advice, we ordered it on PPV. Terrible movie. Don’t ever see it, oh man. I won’t go into much detail, but it was really stupid.
My dad brought me to rachel’s where we were later picked up by Teresa, Katie, and Freddie. Our game went rather well, we won 7-4. I had a horrific game, it was, probably by far one of the worst games I’ve ever had in my entire life. Wow I was ticked. We went into this very creepy gas station. Freddie-*back and forth and back and forth* lol Slept over at Ray’s.

Sunday-church. Then went home, took a shower, and talked to Marcus. We left at about 1:45 for Brookley and Brandt’s hockey games in Brookfield, followed by the superbowl and dinner at the Roger’s house. It was a fun time. Brookley is so adorable, I love her. She’s my little sister!
I drove home on the freeway for the first time, pretty scary. Ha.

Monday, my parents made me get up for parent teacher conferences at 8:50. I was so mad; first of all, it was a day off when I should be able to sleep in, and second of all, I was sick. Oh well.
Most all day Monday I worked on health. Yuck.
Marcus came over, despite the snow. My parents said he was crazy.

Now I’m at school and I’m bored. PT was at chapel today for all you camp people who know who PT is. I miss hanging out with Angela Bowe, we don’t get to talk much anymore, its sad….. 
I totally can’t wait till the retreat. Super excited. I get to see Jones, Matthew, Anne I hope, Beth, Vandenburg who I haven’t seen in forever, and I don’t know who else…..maybe Kas, and Yorkie….we’ll have to wait and see.

Oh yes, here is a gross story for all of you. So the people whose house we went to for the superbowl, the dad is a doctor on stomachs. That day (Sunday) he pulled 4 forks out of a woman’s stomach….yes FORKS. Not the handle, she broke that off before she swallowed the top part. He said she is skitsofrenick, and he’s already pulled pieces of glass out of her before, and even before that, more forks. She also has cigarette burns on her arms. I think she should be in an institute because that’s just insane……oh man.

I wasn’t too impressed by the Superbowl commercials this year….some of them were funny, many were lame.

41 DAYS TILL SOCCER STARTS……BOOYAH.
I have a cold,,,,,,,,,yuck.
I never get any sleep. Last night I talked to marcus until like 11 maybe, and I need sleep. Urgh………………
I haven’t seen David Schlotthauer in a long time. Bummer.

Sorry this is so long….I’ll get going. Miss you all. 
