Experience 25(:

Well hello there!!(:

These past few days have been exhausting!! lol once again, you know the drill! ;p

Saturday: First day of Spring Break!! Best way to start it off, waking up early in the morning to take the SAT's!! yeah not!! lol I didnt reallly study or prepare for them at all. My studying consisted of opening the book the night before and looking throught it for like i dunno 15-20 min(: But the test wasnt that bad. It was just hard to focus lol I kept day dreaming :p so boring!! I had it at Chandler High. I saw a bunch of prople there that i knew though, so that was good(: hmmmm oh yeah!! After the SAT's i went prom dress shoppin with Katelyn and Jacque!! So fun!!! Oh man, you guys shoulda heard some of our convos lol we were crackin up!! ;p heres a lil tid bit of just some of the funny stuff Jacque said....

"JUST 'CAUSE YOU FOUGHT IN A WAR DOESNT MEAN YOU CAN GO ANY SPEED YOU WANT!.....stinkin veteran...(in a hushed voice).."-Jacque

"BAHAHAHA! I make you guys laugh!!" -Jacque "An you make Emilie squeak!"-kate

ahaha oh man, if you guys dont think thats funny, then i guess you just had to be there(: Your loss lol ;p haha welll, we didnt find any dresses we wanted, but I have mine now so does kate and Jacque just has to buy hers(: they are all sooooooooooooooo pretty!! Then, after shoppin I went home and had a girls night with my mom and Angie, my bros gf. I asked Ange to bring over some prom dresses that she had, so i was thinkin like maybe 2-3 dresses to try on, yeah um she cands and had them bring their dresses too. So i had over like 27 dresses to try on. I eventually found the one i wanted, oh man its sooooooooooooooo pretty!! I love it!! Chris came home a lil later and i had to try on my top three for him so he could help me make my final decision, and we both picked the same one(: hahah he helps me pick my clothes and i help him with his(: love it!!(: Then after trying on all the dresses, we watched the movie 27 Dresses!!!! lol weird... ;) haha

Sunday: Woke up for church. Went to 5th and 6th grade and Andrea was teaching!!(: She did sooooooo good!! GET IT GIRL!(; ahahha then went to service with the mother. Worship was freakin amazing!! Oh man, the song selection was awesome!!(: After church went home for a lil had lunch, cleaned Abbys pen, then got ready for Experience 25 with the 5th an 6th graders.

EXPERIENCE 25

Sunday from 4pm till Monday at 5pm. Fasting for 20 hrs.

Got to the church and one all the kids were there we started building their cardboard houses that they were gonna sleep in at church(: So fun!! Then after that we(me, trav and lindsey) took about 20 of the kids to the neighborhood next to the church and went door to door asking for no perishable food items for a food drive(: The kids did sooooo good!!!(: Then went back to the church for the lesson. Had some speakers talk about Helping Hands in Africa than after that we had free time. For free time, we had a big dance party in the auditorium and then some kids went to the portables with David and either watched a movie or played games. Once we finally go the kids to bed and in their appropriate rooms, the leaders could finally rest and go to sleep!! Then back up in the morning for some work projects around the church!! Free time again, and then finally a feast! All the kids were like, "ugh im starrrrrrrving! Im huuuuungry!" all day long! No you are NOT starving, kids in Africa are freaking starving! So we go them Hungry Howies (idk spelling on that) pizza and some cookies. Then after that a few more lessons and then free time till their parents came to pick them up. All in all, it was a great experience for the kids, just a little preperation for when they go on real mission trips and all that fun stuff(:

The girls working on their houses!!

Then the boys working on theirs(:

theres Lindsey, trav and me!! takin pics on the computer while the kids were having their dance party lol what great leaders!! ;) haha then thats the group of girls we took to go collect canned foods(: The video i was trying to upload, but didnt work is just of one of the games we had the kids play(: It was to kinda immitate the carrying of water jusgs that people do in Africa many times a day. It was also to wear the kids out before bed but man they were like the freaking energizer bunny! they just kept goin an goin and goin!!! haha

here are a few quotes from the night(: haha remember, we were all realllllly exhausted!!

(our room we were in for leaders was quite, we had just stopped talking and were all layin down) "im glad i dont live in another country.........this sucks!" -David lol we busted up laughin after that hahah

"Silly David, monkeys dont live in houses!" -Jesse

"Way to be literaturish!!"(trav) "Wow, you tell her travis! David, youre the English major, you correct him." (Jesse) "Awwwwwwwwwww hes probably judging our grammer!" (lindsey) "YUP! and your spelling tooooo!" (David) "What? how the heck is that possible?" (me) "I can hear how you spell it when you speak." (David)

"Maybe theyre going to the bathroom, its harmless." (David) "or maybe they are playing with switchblade in the hallway." (Jesse)

"I cant sleep!" (one of the kids standing at our door at like 1 am) "Why is that our problem?!!" (jesse)

"DAVID!! Matthew is giving me dating advice! Hes trying to be all Dr. Phill on me!" (Jesse) (matther is one of the 5th and 6th grade boys)

"Why do they call it a cat fight?" (one of the boys) "Well its because the girls act like cats and us guys apparently act like dogs" (matthew)

"I dont think the girls havd ears." (Ross, one of the lil boys)

"Yeah! well i can do a triple salchow over a burning truck while holding a baby segal without letting the olympic torch go out!" (Jesse) yeah im not quite sure what we were talking about there......lol

hahah oh man, we all had a blast!! But we were soooooooooooooooooooo glad to be home lol we were exhausted!!! haha lets see, once i got home i got in the shower and then went to bed!! haha

now to today!!(: Woke up early and went to this spa/tanning place it was awesome!! I did this like deep moisturizer thingy. so pretty much a steam bath i guess. I felt like i was going into space or like in a lil space ship thingy lol it was pretty cool! then after that i did this mystic tan thing. My mom wantedme to do it before my sr pics lol. While i was gettin it done, i just kept laughin to myself thinking about the Friends episode where Ross goes to get a spray on tan and he messes up and keeps spraying the front of his body lol oh man the lady incharge waled by and asked if i was ok cuz she heard me chuckling hahah so funny! Then came home and got abby ready to go to her new home :( I didnt cry!! i was so surprised! I held it all back, so eventually somethin will hapen that will cause the dam to break and it to alll come pouring out at once lol :p but Abby should be happy at her new home. The dad has just become her new best friend(: so im not worried. Katelyn came with me. Once we got back home, me and her went out to lunch at Arbys(: thats like our place lol hung out with her for a while then came home and did chores and all that not so fun stuff!

Thats been my life for the past few days! Tomorrow should bring about happiness too!!(: I will be dying my hair in the am then going to the movies with Brett and his sis in the pm!!(: lol So excited!! Going to see Alice in Wonderland!! ye yeah!!(:
