It's time

Time i wrote in my blog! last i wrote was .. a week ago! so on tuesday i decided i was not gonna go on the computer all day and do school and bible reading all day instead . it worked out great! i got alot of school and bible reading done! that night was awards night and it was alot of fun . i led my cubbies to "inside my heart" and the parents loved it . let's see , wednesday night i helped my kids write letters to my teammates and they thought that was cool! thursday i went to youthgroup all alone without leann there! because she is in nevada at her brother's wedding!! it was lame without her there . friday i got ready to go to valdez ( 6 hours away ) to go to an airshow with my grandparents , family , and uncle and aunt and cousins! we took off at about 12pm and got there around 6:30pm i switched moterhomes after 3 hours of driving and i must say going with the cousins was more eventful! it was SO much fun though! i played games with the cousins and they all love me so much . i don't know why but they do , i must be pretty amazing! but yes , now i am home and supposed to be doing school! i have to leave to an appointment to get shots for South Africa and i am so freaked out! i hate shots!! SO SO MUCH! but i'm glad to get it over with . so i have to leave! ill write more later , but i'm really rushed at the moment .

and so it ends..

our sunny , warm , amazing weather has come to an end . today it was in the 50's it was slightly sunny , but really chilly . i'm so sad!! this is gonna be a short post today because i didn't really do anything! i stumbled out of bed , ate breakfast , actually did school .. then i pretty much Instant messaged with alana and jonathan the rest of the day . this evening after dinner the whole family went outside for awhile and it was pretty fun . but i got cold and came in! so that was my day in a nutshell , super boooringg .
see yas,

Heeeey you are my sunshine..

i'm starting to notice a pattern with my titles now .. haha the last one i posted was called "in the blink of an eye.." which is a song and now i did "Heey you are my sunshine" which is also part of a song! wierd huh? speaking of sunshine , this week has been SO BEAUTIFUL! amazing amazing amazing! so! today! got up early for church , went there , went home .. i sat at home kind of bored , wanting to go on a bike ride but nobody to go with .. so i called up paige and she wasn't home so i had to wait for over an hour before she called back! so we decided to head out to awana on our bikes , well actually the original plan was to bike to some tennis courts near the church and play until awana begins .. well , i decided that this one way was better than the way paige told me , and it was a foolish decision .. and paige was all mad at me . but oh well! i learn from my mistakes!! so we ended up taking so long that we arrived at the church right at 5 ( the time of our awana) had a great awana time! and afterwards me , paige , leann , ronnie , ethan , and jacob all went to mcdonalds for some snackage! me , leann , and ronnie walked , paige rode on her bike alongside us and ethan rode his bike following jacob who was driving his bronco . it was alot of fun! we got home and hung out for awhile and i got to chat with mrs v( my team leader) for awhile on facebook! it was really nice because i got alot of info from her about what i'm doing this summer etc..
i'm tired and it's coming very close to 1am because i always end up writing these posts while i'm in bed! sad but true! i should get to bed earlier!
Sunshine and blue skies,

In the blink of an eye..

"In the blink of an eye , that is where , i'll grow closer to you than i've ever been.. time will fly but until then , i'll embrace every moment i'm given.."
In the blink of an eye , my brother graduated , in the blink of an eye i'll be going to South Africa , In the blink of an eye i'll be graduating , going off to college
life is so short! that's why we should live it to the fullest! do our job here on earth , then go to heaven where it'll be amazing , even more than amazing , absolutely indescribable.
Graduating is just another stepping stone through life.
at my brother's graduation today , i kept getting "you're next krista!" and it really annoyed me for some reason .. i want to grow up .. and graduate and go on with life .. yet it's all coming too fast! i'm only 16! i want to enjoy my life right NOW , and not be so fed up with when i'm gonna graduate , i like focusing on here and now , not so much the future or what's gonna happen next , even though i want to .. it's all in God's hands and there's absolutely nothing i can do to change it , so i'm gonna step back and let God lead my life where He may.
to be honest , i have NO clue what i'm gonna do with my life .
i have no awesome skillz that are extra ordinary . i don't .. know .. and yes , i'm worried about what college i'm gonna go to , if i even want to go to college , what i'm gonna do after college if i go , where i'm gonna work , and so many other questions ..
yet like i said before .. i gotta leave it to God . He's totally and completely in control of my life .
well this particular post turned out quite great! i guess i had alot on my mind but didn't know .. i just started with "in the blink of an eye" and kinda went from there! well , here's a quick recap of what happened today!
got up , the rest of the family went to a book sale at our library and i stayed home because i didn't really feel like going , so i sat out in the lawn chair listening to my ipod and soaking in the sun .. when they got home we headed to the graduation, i waited around there forever before it started and when it finally did it ran very smoothly!( it actually kept my attention span! 'record!!!') i got good pics of the diploma handing out and it was great! the reception was boring after awhile and we were there forever until FINALLY we started heading out . went home , changed , and headed to golden corral and the food was AMAZING! it's like my new fav restaurant now! we headed home with our stomachs full and hung outside and played frisbee for awhile , then headed inside and watched the rest of slumdog millionare . there's my day for ya!

Graduation tommorrow! YIKES!

what another BEAUTIFUL sunshiny day! and ANOTHER day i got no school done at all! went to the store with my mom and will this morning , then ate lunch at Qdoba . not my favorite place ever to eat , but OH WELL! the rest of the day i spent with my cousins building a toy robot with ethan and playing outside in the sunshine! it feels so much like summer it's pretty CRAZY
went to my brother Jacob's graduation rehearsal tonight and it was pretty crazy boring! we just went and walked around bored , i took will to the playground in the back of the church and it was a pretty AMAZING playground! most fun so far that i've seen!no wait , that's probably a lie .. i've probably seen better , but it was pretty fun . they went through everything they had to do for the ceremony , i have to take pictures of my dad and mom handing jacob the diploma and i really hope i get a good picture! i'll feel terribly if i get a bad picture!! oh well .
watching slumdog millionare right now , i've only seen some of it before at leann's house , but that was on clearplay .. pretty good movie so far
i guess that's all i have to say for today,
Peace!!

there is nothing funny about feline near sightedness

the title has nothing to do with what i am about to say , but i did think it was a great header! today was quite lovely , but once again i got zip school done! i haven't done a tad bit of school all week! ahhhhh! walked to fred meyer today , pretty amazing walk , it's so AMAZINGLY gorgeous outside every day i want to scream! i bought twizzlers and icecream and 'incentives' for my kids at bible study , speaking of which my 'incentives' are still yet to work! i have a group of 7 kids at my bible study that i take care of for 2 hours .. it's exausting .. well , had a great night tonight , and it didn't include youth group which is FAIL! i decided not to go , because it was my cousin's birthday and i'm pretty sure i'm his favorite cousin , so i decided that was more important! so i stayed and became the life of the party ( to the kids at least) we decorated cupcakes , he opened presents ( i'm pretty sure he hated my present but felt bad to say it) , we ate the cupcakes and had icecream , and we played outside ( sack races!!! ) we played olympics .. and did like dancing and swimming and gymnastics and jumping in piles of leaves to see hwo far we could jump! it was great fun! then we proceeded to play that we were indians! i'm always the queen and my name is Wan-Wan . i had a colorful throne of awesomeness that only i could sit in! it was great fun until they had to leave . too bad i missed youth group! but there's always next week!!
ahh tommorrow , i have to go to some graduation rehearsal for my brother's graduation .. and then saturday his actual graduation! i have a pretty full day on saturday! it's kind of CRAZY! yeah , so i'm gonna watch lost now before it gets a little too late! ( current time : 12:42AM)
