"We did it! We did it! Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. No eating here tonite-woo!"

Awrighty, so we had our second soccer game Monday and it was awesome. We won, 2-0! I was so happy! So far, we're on a roll....that's going to come to a swift end next Monday when we play Storm. Actually, I shouldn't say that. After all, there's always a slim possibility that we'll win. Very slim though. Anywho, yeah, it's at 8:00 Monday at Mike Rose on field 7 (my lucky number! that's always good!). Come on by and cheer us on. Well, I got to be going, so I'm done for now. Later days!

Woohoo

My game is over. We tied, 0-0. It was a great game, although I played like crap at the end. Anyway, I've been thinking about shutting down my blog and going only Xanga, because no one comments on here anyway. Leave me some feedback. Later days.

Sick of being sick

I'm semi-sick still, and it's killing me. I hate it. I think the worst part is the sneezing though. My nose gets tickled by all the crap in my nose, making me sneeze, which then makes my nose run. Gahhh! I hate it. That's the worst part. I'm coughing some, but it doesn't hurt, although it sounds like I'm gonna cough up a lung...or a toe. Yeah, I'm hoping I'm better by my game Thursday. Passion Play is going well, and I love going up there to hang out with my friends and my guardian angel. Junior Senior banquet is in 3 days! It's going to be fun, although I'm more excited about the all-nighter. I'm just hopin' they have Mountain Dew, or I'm never gonna last. I'm trying out the self-tanning stuff too. I think it might work out good, but it could make me turn orange. I'm just keepin' my fingers crossed. All for now. Later days.

And what's so wrong with Northerners??

I'm on a roll with these "You know" things. I promise I'll stop...sometime. It's just my life is pretty boring, so when I have nothing to say, I write "You know"s. Here's a pretty good set. And I'll have you know I've done most of these things.
YOU KNOW YOU'RE FROM CHICAGO WHEN....
-You can name three or four taxes nobody else pays.
-You say Chicawgo and not Chicaago.
-You think going to a Bears game in single digit temperatures with a wind off the lake (and freezing rain) is fun.
-You guard your shoveled parking space with an old chair and unusable broom.
-You know why they call it "the Windy City".
-You know when the last time the Cubs won a pennant.
-You know exactly how many cars are "legally" allowed to turn left after the light turns red.
-The "Living Room" is called the "front room".
-You don't pronounce the "s" at the end of Illinois. You become irate at people who do.
-You measure distance in minutes (especially "from the city"). And you swear everything is pretty much 15 minutes away.
-You refer to Lake Michigan as "The Lake".
-You refer to Chicago as "The City".
-You think 35 degrees is great weather to wash your car!
-You know what goes on a Chicago Style Hot Dog.
-You know what Chicago Style Pizza REALLY is.
-You know the difference between Amtrak and Metra, and know which station they end up at. You have ridden the "L".
-You wear gym shoes, not sneakers.
-You live 2 miles from work and it takes you 2 hours to drive there.
-You don't flinch when you pay the 5th toll of your 45 minute car ride on the highway.
-You know Lincoln Towing is Satan incarnate.
-You're not ashamed of wearing a big fur Russian hat, or a headsock with one hole in it, in public from November through March.

You know you're addicted to Star Wars when...

-When trying unsuccessfully to snare that last Cheerio floating in your cereal bowl, you remark, "The Force is strong with this one."
-You've been pulled over by a policeman, and when asked to see your driver's license, you reply, "You don't need to see my identification."
-You've held up an onion ring and said, "Look, sir...droids!"
-Whenever you catch sight of cars behind yours, you say, "Fighters, coming in, point five three!"
-Someone else in your car says, "What about that tower?"
-You respond, "You worry about those fighters, I'll take care of that tower!" and moments later your car slams into the water tower the passenger was referring to.
-When your alarm clock goes off in the morning, you reply, "Unexpected this is...and unfortunate!"
-You tell your younger brother at the dinner table, "Use the fork, Luke!"
-Anyone who doesn't like Star Wars you proclaim is an Imperial.
-You type in the terms for a search engine as if entering coordinates, then shout, "Punch it, Chewie!" as you click on search.
-You listen for Obi-Wan while attempting to parallel park.
-When accelerating your car to enter the freeway, you tell your passengers to strap in and prepare for light speed.
-When your dad says, "I am your father," you begin to scream uncontrollably and shout, "NOOOO!!! It's not true!!" at the top of your lungs.

Pirates of the Caribbean

"What's your purpose in Port Royal, Mr. Smith?" -First guard
"Yeah, and no lies!!" -Second guard
"Alright then, I confess. It is my intention to comandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Tortuga, raid, pilage, plunder, and otherwise pilfer my weasley black guts out." -Captain Jack Sparrow
"Hey, I said no lies!"
"I think he's tellin' the truth..."
"If he were telling the truth, he wouldn' have told us."
"That is of course, if he told the truth and knew you wouldn't believe it even if he told you."
"???"

"Lenny! Squiggy! Zip it!!"

Ah, not much happenin' today. I went up to the Bookstore to see Leslianne today. It's quite fun being a "sidekick". Other than that, it's been a very boring day filled with school. I should probably go run, but I'm not exactly in the mood for it. Oh yes, if you're going to come to one of my soccer games, we should probably review the dates. I'll save you the aggravation of having to read all the game times (especially if you're not even planning on coming to one) and just write down the more recent ones...

March 24th- field 9, 8:00 PM (our first game, so come out and cheer us on!!)
March 28th- field 11, 6:00 PM
Apr. 4th- field 7, 8:00 PM

That's all for me. Later days.

David Beckham, hands down

Ok, I'm having problems on my xanga. Courtney has been so bold as to say that no one thinks David Beckham is hot. Just for that, she will go down. Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating a bit. A bit. but, if you think the dude is hot, and you love me, then please go to my xanga, or here and tell everyone that David Beckham is the man. Thank you. That is all. Later days.

"It burns us, it burns us!!!"

Chemistry lab today. It was really kinda fun, except we were using 3 solutions that could be harmful to your skin if it came in contact with it. While we were working on one test tube, my lab partner turned the eye dropper upside down...the dropper was filled with hydrochloric acid, I might add. Now, you might know that you're not supposed to turn a dropper upside down because the solution will get in the bulb and rot it out. I quickly (and a bit loudly) informed my partner that you're not supposed to do that. He panics and squeezes the dropper, shooting hydrochloric acid at me. Thankfully, my lightning fast reflexes kicked in and I jumped away from our desk just in the nick of time. The acid spilled all over our desk, and I accused my partner *cough, cough TOMMY! cough, cough* of trying to murder me. We were laughing so hard though we were crying and having to support ourselves on our chairs. We couldn't keep it together, and our teacher was like, "Are you guys ok over there?" We managed to stop laughing to tell her yes, and went back to our experiment, which didn't work anyway. So that was the only interesting thing that happened to me today. Yeah. Later days.

Farewell to Dr. Rogers

Tonight was Dr. Rogers last night as senior pastor. I'm really going to miss him. He is an amazing man. All of this has just made me want to get to know him even more. He seems like such a fun guy. And who knew he went bungee-jumping?? That in itself is amazing! Anywho, I gotta go to bed, but I sure love you, Dr. Rogers and I will miss you! Later days.

"Do the chickens have large talons? Large talons?"

Today was the first meeting for Honduras. It was exciting. I'm really looking foward to it all, although I'll admit I'm a wee bit nervous. It's going to be so awesome though. I went out to eat with Anna after the meeting and we hung out, talking about past camp memories and such. I came home and played a little soccer with Leah, trying to teach her some moves. My dad threw the football with me a little bit too. It's an understatement to say I have a rag arm. I need to work on throwing. Maybe I just need to work on my muscles period. Anywho, I'm out. Long live Napoleon Dynamite! Later days!

"Trot, trot, trottin' in place, trottin' in place...YEAH!"

You guys should be so proud of me...I did 9 miles tonight. "Oh, yah, I can hardly believe it also!" I'm feeling it now though. My legs are absolutely killing me. And the worst part? We didn't even have practice tonight! It's like Spring Break or something (whoever heard of spring break for soccer?!?!?) so we don't start up practices until March 15th (which is so retarded...if we want to win any games, we need to practice!!!!!!), but myself and 2 other girls did not get this message until we were already out at the fields (which, by the way, are 30 minutes away from my house). We decided we wouldn't let a cancelled practice keep us from running. So we went back up to the gym, and ran. While I did not run 9 miles, I did run. I'm just not a long distance runner. I'm a sprinter. So running and running is just not for me. Soccer's not even like that. You sprint, then jog, or even walk, then sprint again. And although running is good to build stamina and get you in shape, I see no reason to push it when you're already in shape (I'm all for running, just not running so fast that you pass out after the first lap). I already did myself an injury bookin' it at the gym. So I'm ready to just chill for a little while. We need to have practice, not marathon training. Ok, I'll shut up now. Later days.

"I must hold on before, I too, go totally mad...too late."

If you haven't caught on yet, you'll notice I'll put movie quotes in the title if I can't think of title. Today's quote is Puss in Boots, from Shrek 2. Not much today. Just been doing school, and school, and pouting over another cancelled soccer game, and school. I'm sick of rain. I want some sun so we can play some soccer! Our next game isn't until the end of this month! Ugh. I don't think I can wait that long. Thus, the reason for my excellent quote. Alias is on tomorrow, and I simply cannot wait. After I read the books, I got hooked, so now I watch the TV show, and it's quite awesome.
Still thinking about going to the Jr.-Sr. banquet. I really wanna go to the all-nighter, but the only way you can go to that is to attend the banquet. Poo. I don't mind going with all my friends, but...I dunno. I'm thinkin' about trying to persuade this guy to take me (as friends, of course). So we'll see how that goes. Ok, I'm out. Later days!
