washington was awsome!  i had so much fun.  i made at least 5 friends (i hope...).  no, i made more than that.  but who knows how long the friendships will last?  i mean, i spent 5 wks with ppl in sewanee and the only friendship i got out of that was stephanie.  but that's a really good friendship, tho.  so maybe i'll get a good one out of this trip.  doubt it...  i've e-mailed everyone, and so far 2 have e-mailed me back.  and only 1 more than once.  but that's okay. 

i don't want to go back to school.  there's still a month b4 we go back, but i'm really dreading it.  we're going to be seniors!  that'll be great, but that also means that next year we're not coming back.  i don't know if i'm ready for that. 

well, i'm supposed to be cleaning my room right now.  i've got about half of it done.  i do a little section at a time.  actually, i just move all the junk from one spot to another so the first spot looks clean.  now i've forced all of it into half my room and i don't know wat to do with it.  but instead of going back into the heat, i'm going to play the sims.  it's miserable up there.  there's no a/c.  i have 2 windows and a fan, but that doesn't really help a lot.  i'm up there in shorts and a tank top sweating, and i come down here and i freeze to death.  no happy medium.

i think i've rambled enough, so i'm going to turn the internet off and turn the sims on.  nice chatting with u, my imaginary friends...

well, I just got an odd call from Tusculum (sp?) college.  some lady asked if i got my information to apply and i said no, and then she hung up.  odd...

anyway, i'm leaving to go to washington tomorrow.  early in the morning.  i'm excited and nervous at the same time.  i need to go pack.  well, i also have to finish my speech.  i'm supposed to give a three minute speech and i wrote it last night and i was almost done so i decided to time it, and i've gone over the limit by at least 40 seconds.  but if i talk really fast i should do it.  but i'm not done yet.  i think i'll eat lunch and then pack...then maybe i'll work on the speech.  or i could just stop....  hmmmmmmm........

well, i'm about to go off to chuch camp with stephanie.  wish me luck.  i've never been inside a church of god church, much less spent an entire week surrounded by it.  i'm methodist, but i guess all that really matters is jesus as ur savior.

i'm kind of bored right now.  i've got another 30 min. at least b4 we leave, so i don't want to start anything, but i have nothing to do for 30 min...

well, i got my hair hacked off.  it's so short!  i'm not sure if i like it or not.  i've got to get used to it, i guess.  i always hate my hair when it's long, but as soon as i cut it off i go "okay, time for long hair."  sometimes i wish life was like the sims.  they can have long hair, then short, then long.  and go from brown to blonde to black to red to green or watever.  so now i have short hair and pierced ears.  i'm ready for summer.  see ppl say to do weird stuff during the summer, b/c ppl don't see u.  well, a lot of ppl r going to see me this summer.  i've got horse shows, church camp, and a trip to washington.  not to mention band camp and senior pictures.  i got pictures made tuesday with long hair, no earrings.  and the 27th i'm getting more made with short hair and earrings.  i think i'll like these first ones better.  mom's getting on my nerves with this stupid speech thing.  no one else from SVEC wanted to do it, so i got stuck with it, and i have to give a 3 minute speech about something i don't really know anything about (or care about, actually).  i'm about to have to go wash horses for the horse show tonight (tomorrow is when i show, but we're going up tonight).
