This has been an interesting couple of weeks. I don't really know what to do anymore. I started making new friends at school from Young Life and now all my friends from church thing I don't like them and I feel like I don't fit in anymore. One of my "bestfriends" won't even talk to me anymore, I hear everything from other people. And I seem to be constantly getting into fights with different people. Some of the people I used to hang out with at school have been calling me stuff I am not even going to type and mom and I got in a big fight. So lets just say this hasn't been the best of weeks. I feel really bad now, I don't want to lose the friends I had but so many things are happening and I just can't seem to keep a hold on all of them. What do I do? I can't lose my friends....not now.....I need them........

stressed

I am so tired, but this weekend was so much fun. I went to camp with Young Life and I am so glad that I did. I was planning on going because nobody I knew was. But I signed up and decided to try it anyways, and I am SO GLAD that I did. After the West/South game...that West won...I headed over to the parking lot to get on the bus. We were supposed to leave right after the game, but we stopped at McDonalds to wait for Shannon to catch up with the extra girls she got to come. So we left Albany a little after 11 instead of 10. We headed off for Twin Rocks. (Tilamook Area)
I knew nobody and that can be kind of intimidating. We didn't get there until around 1:30. We were so tired. They ebded up canceling club that night because everybody was coming in at such random times. All the girls headed up to the room we had and rolled out there sleeping bags and went to sleep. I was just getting to sleep and then Shannon, one of our leaders, cam in with cookies and of course everyone wanted one and so we all got up to get them and then when we were done we headed back to bed except for the fact that two of the girls got the giggles and would not be quiet. It was so annoying because I was tired and couldn't go to sleep because they were laughing so hard, but they were finally quiet.
We got up way to early the next morning in my opinion. Got dressed and we all headed down to breakfast. After breakfast I started to get to know people. I met Liz, even though I already knew who she was because she went to my middle and elemntary school, but I got to actually know her. She is really nice. After breakfast we had a quick lesson, the one we were supposed to have the night before, and then when back to are rooms to talk about it. I had so much fun this weekend. We had lessons and sang songs, both christian and some other random rock/pop stuff. Are lessons were good and made me really think about my relationship with God. And the speaker was awesome.
During the day Saturday we were playing these games outside after lunch in the rain and 35-40 mile an hour wind. It was so cold because we were playing games with water balloons and running in the mudd, it was bad. Then they brought out this slush stuff....which I am still not exactly sure what it was made out of, but we were throwing it at each other anyways. Then we had a free time and Sue, Liz, and I went down to the beach. It was so much fun, but so cold. The wind was holding me upright and I was standing at an angle just so it wouldn't blow me over. Liz and I were laughing so hard, but I was talking to Sue and wasn't paying attention and the ocean came and soaked my only pair of shoes, I know stupid on my part, but that would be me. So the rest of the weekend I had no shoes. After we got back up to the camp I took a shower and then Liz and I went down to the gym and played basketball with the guys and then we fell asleep on the couch later in the day. Tim and Elliot played for almost five hours, which I think is psycotic especially since all the guys that came with us were up the night before until three playing soccer in the gym. But it was so much fun.
Saturday night a little after 11 we played this "game". It was so much fun, we formed groups and had to come up with skits with the item and celebrities we were given. We had to sell whatever product we had in a covercial type set-up. Liz, Tim, Cody, Steve, Kristy, Sarah, Shannon, Nicole, Natasha, and I were all in a group. We got Gas Relief for our product and are celebrities were Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey. It was so much fun because we decided to set it up kind of like a Newlyweds show and have it be that Jessica had really bud gas problems and then after some technical difficulties Nick tells her she has a problem and tells her about Gas Relief. I was Jessica Simpson and Tim was Nick. It was hysterical because we had Natasha be the door and Sarah was the toilet. Then Shannon introduced the comercial then I said that I was Jessica Simpson and that I was here today to tell people about Gas relief and how it had changed Nick and my life. And then we showed Shannon introducing some friends and they talked about how I always had had horrid gas and then we cut back to me. I was sitting on the toilet, and by Steve's reguest i threw out my arms, scrunched up my face and yelled "RELEASE THE DEMON" in a really deep voice. It was so funny I almost died. And then Steve and Cody, who were supposed to be guests at our house, were walking to the bathroom and Cody opened the door and did this fake faint and steve picked him up and carried him away crying. Then Steve cam running back on and whispered, loudly, in "Nick's" ears that he needed to talk to "Jessica" about her problem. So Tim sat me down and told me that I had a problem and that I needed to get it fixed and then he showed me Gas relief and told me I probably need to take SIX a day to cure my problem. It was pretty funny, and we had everyone laughing so hard. This weekend was awesome.
On the way back Cody, Tim, Liz, Steve, Scott, Elliot, Nate, Nick, Sue, Jeremy, and I were on the bus for the ride home. Jeremy was driving and Sue was sitting in the front. Scott destroyed the floor in the bus. First he was throwing water bottles around, mainly at Nate because he was being rude. And then we opened the small windows along the top and we were trying to get either the waterbottles or the cups out the window. It was funny because Scott discovered that if you opened two right next to each other and pour water out the front one it will blow back in throught the other one and hit everyone behind it. It was funny. And then Scott and Steve were trying to "surf" by staying standing when we tool the corners. But when they got bored they started throwing stuff again. And they got bored throwing them at Nate so they redirected there aim. I was sitting in the back on one side by Tim and they decided to hit him, but he didn't want too so he picked me up and put me in the line of fire. It was fun. We hit Elliot and Steve and lots of other people. But when we got bored with that Scott was drying to pick up a bag of chips and flund all of them all over the bus. Tons of mashed up chips, an entire bag, and then it was candy wrappers, and then popcorn. By the time we got back into town we had to go to Sue's house first to Sweep out the bus. Nate got sick but atleast we stopped before he did so it wasn't on the bus. We made a video which is going to be shone in a couple weeks at Young Life.
Overall it was a fun weekend. But I have homework so I will be on later. Hope you can read all this. I know it is long.

Breath In...Breathe Out

WoW!! This has been a really odd week. One of my best friends started dating another one of my friends and then they broke up less then a day later. And this was a really stressful weekend. A lot happened that I shouldn't have let happen, but I guess what is done is done. I am cold and I have to go to bed so I will right more later, but I went to the JV football game tonight against South. It was so cold. At one point the wind was blowing sideways and it was raining and I got wet and cold. Then I got attacked after the game by Ashley who had gotten back from her choir concert just in time to see David play his only game this year. The doctors finally said he could play cause his arm had healed enough. He was so excited, he had major helmet head though. It made me laugh, Ashley and I made it into a mohawk. It was funny. Anyways we won and I am cold and not I am going to bed. Write more later. Night!!
