Soccer

CHECK OUT MY

BICEP

I usually think that I am generally unlucky, but this morning went fantastic for me! First, I got brownies in orchestra (it's the last class of the semester so we had to do something special). Then, I managed to get out of English because they were watching some sort of thing called Shakespeare Abridged or something like that. It's quite entertaining the first time, but for some reason I have watched it four times already in my high school career, and the fifth time it's just annoying. So I asked to leave, and, surprisingly, was allowed! And instead of going to art, I went with Jen to Subway and had a delicious chicken and bacon wrap. Fridays at our school are half days so I had no classes after that. So we played

SOCCER.

And here are the millions of pictures that I took to go with it. I was playing for a while, but soccer isn't really my sport (actually it's my least favourite sport, next to golf). I've just had too many accidents involving double nosebleeds and one of those wretched balls. Anyway ...

The game commences. Let's see if I can remember who everyone is. Melissa was playing goalie on the side closest to me at the time, so you can't see her in this picture. Starting from the left, there is Jackson, Nathan, Tamara, Jonathan, Jen, Ryan, Allison. Allison forgot to wear soccer playing clothes today.

We were joined later by Chris and Landon. This picture is so hilarious to me.


Simon says go left!


Simon says go right!


Here I am, the lovely photographer ;), and Delena, who was working on homework.


I had to give this vending machine mention! I wanted some Chews and was very pleased to find that there was a quarter in it already! I was so very pleased. Thank you, kind vending machine. I got twice as many Chews as I would have had (which is awesome for me, because they are a little addiction of mine)!

It was over 20 degrees by the time we were finished the soccer game, and I decided to go outside and read in the sunshine. I also brushed my dog. She hates getting brushed but it must be done! And she always gets two treats after for behaving.


My love chunk Alex and I took her on a nice long walk after dark. I love hot days because they make for nice nights for walking. She is getting pretty old (about 11 or 12 years) and sore and she was sick twice today (once on my leg!). Her fur is still soft though! I hope she stays for at least two more summers.

VICTORY DANCE!

Hello.

So this is a new thing I am trying. I have kept a journal for a long time which I fill with my daily events, thoughts, and photos. But it was tiring because I had to print out, cut, and glue them into the pages, and all that writing was such a bother sometimes. I have decided to be kind of lazy but not, and try to keep up with technology. Here goes nothing.

Today was GORGEOUS. I am so excited for such a hot spring day! I saw the first bug of summer today as well. SO exciting! :D I was off to a bad start this morning... do you ever have mornings when you just feel so incompetant and nothing is doing what you want it to? I restarted my makeup four times! But my daddy bought me cookies before I went to school so I felt better.

You don't want to hear about my boring school day ...

After school, my friends Sarah and Jen, and my siblings Em and Jackson and I went to No Frills, which just opened today. The prices were terrifyingly low, it just blew my mind! I rode in the cart and stared in awe at the $5 frozen pizzas. We bought two of those pizzas, three different kinds of popsicles, and some weird drinks we had never heard of that were only $0.69 each. Those drinks ended up being pretty disgusting unfortunately ... but it was fun to try them. The popsicles and pizzas were excellent though!

Sarah went home because she had some stuff to do, and the rest of us went on a walk and Em practiced unicycling. I broke my toe a couple of days ago and it was feeling better but after the walk it felt sore again. Oh well, broken toes heal fast! ... and STILL, waiting for them to get better is annoying.

Today a girl with one of those weird back-combed emo-mullets told me my hair looked stupid ... I'm too nice, but I wanted to ask her what does she know about hair?! Being a pacifist though, I chose not to reply.

That pretty much sums up today! Oh, but I think I may have lost the locket that was on my necklace on our walk. It was such a pretty locket too, it was heart shaped and engraved. No sentimental value, but it was really nice looking and I'm disappointed that it disappeared. Maybe I didn't lose it on the walk and it will turn up. Hopefully...

Good night!
