Sorry for the lack of updates here lately. It's been a really fun summer so far.
#1 thing I’ve learned this summer-for some reason the day boys get their paychecks their way more generous.
Jake started dating Amanda (yes, Troy's Girlfriend, yes, that's his "best friend" and yes, they broke up like 3 days before us) the last week of school. Whatever, I was a little ticked when I first heard about it, but I got over it real fast, I had plenty of other stuff to occupy my mind with. Everyone else couldn't get over it though, people asked me about it and talked to me about it everyday for like a week straight, and it drove me nuts! I don't really care, it’s his life, and I’m not in it anymore so why should I care? I can just hope he's happy, and He seems like he is…so…um…yay.
On top of everyone bothering me about that crap^ All these rumors got started towards the end of school about me and Ben Dennis, which totally sucked! Apparently I made out with him or something while he and his last girlfriend were together and I’m why they broke up. After that I'm going to be very careful who I accept rides home with 'cause that’s how it all got started. Rides home = Makin’ Babies.
The first Saturday after school let out (May 28) I went to Catherine's Graduation/Birthday party with Jay. It was pretty hot, met some cool people: Brad, Sean, and Phil. I've hung out with Brad and Sean almost every night since then. The day after the party I saw Brad and Sean again at Abby's Graduation Party (also a hot party) that night I went with them to meet up with their youth group and see Star Wars, It was pretty cool. I met their cool friend Andrew. I definitely didn't pay for my ticket either so that was nice.
The next night me, Lanie, Lindz-O, and Sean met up at the pool hall and hung out there till it closed then we wanted ice cream (but not Coldstone, you only get their over priced crap when he's paying) so we drove around and discovered that Kernersville is closed at 10 and coldstone is the only ice cream place open to 10:30pm but by the time we got over there and met up w/ brad it had just closed and sitting at the tables in front were some kids it turns out me brad and Sean had in common. We decided to go to the FOOD LION next door and bought a $2.50 carton of ice cream and got free sporks. All 5 of us sat on 4 chairs around my table in the back yard and ate straight out the carton and talked all night, soon the left over Chinese food from me, Lanie and Lindz’s dinner was gone and me and Lindz-o decided we wanted coffee-yum-brad got his first cup EVER. The boys left at like 3:30am in the morning.
The next day was pretty boring other then brad calling and asking me out on a date for the next day. That night Lanie came over and soon we were joined by Ben for a little while then Sean and Brad came and we all went and got Zack’s yogurt and hung out in my back yard again.
The next day: Me and Brad's First Date, Picked me up at 6:30pm, Dinner at Olive Garden and then back to his house to watch movie but we realized we didn't have enough time since i had to be home at 10 b/c i hade to catch a 6:30am flight the next day (Cali baby) so we discovered Salad Fingers "you taste like sunshine dust." We shared our first kiss-yay!
Left that Thursday for a few days in Cali visiting the Grandparents and various other people, saw Rick Springfield in concert, went garage sale shopping, saw sisterhood of the Traveling pants, and was further convinced my family is nuts. Got back on Monday and went straight to Lanie’s house from the airport hung out w/ Lanie and Lindz there went home the next morning and brought Lanie and Lindz w/ me. We cleaned up the house for Lindz's birthday party there later that week and then we went out to dinner w/ Sean, Brad and Andrew. Lindz had to leave after dinner then the rest of us went back to Brad’s and played Scene It, it was fun. (SAY ANTHING!) It totally forget what happened the next day o yea Lanie got her license an drove me around doing chores for mom then we went shopping at same w/ Lindz and her mom for stuff for the party
The next day i spent getting ready for Lindz’s b-day party that night Joe helped a whole lot, I love that kid! that night was cool except for the 5 mins I spent being "anti social" or whatever. Super fun though, Mom called Phil hot. U can read more about it here. Their was lots of licking for some reason. The end of the night found me, Lindz, Lanie, Sean and brad snuggled together in my bed.
The next day me and Lindz went to the lake with my church and afterwards hung out w/ brad and Sean till 3 in the morning, fun stuff.
The Next week was mostly a blur of hanging out w/ Lanie, Lindz, Sean, Brad and Andrew at various places until mostly late at night or early morning depending on how you look at it.
People came over to swim and stuff a few times and I saw Phil once or twice. One Night we went to the movies and ran into some people from school and Kerron and Justin Craven came back to the house and hung out w/ us. Me Justin and Kerron ended up snuggling all on the same lawn chair at like 4 in the morning.
Tuesday June 21st-Joe's Going Away Party
Sadness. Met some cool people though. Cool guy named Nick. Fun stuff. Kissed Joe (He's my one and Only. duh.) and wrote him a long letter about how lucky I am to know a Mormon like him. Even if he did hit on Lindz.
After the party which ended rather early (Joe had an early flight) Me, Lindz, Andrew, Lanie, Sean and Brad got McDonalds and went to my house. Shortly I discovered in fact I wanted Arbys. Then I kicked Brad out of my house and then I had the pleasure of having "the talk" w/ him (on the way to and from Arby's of course) It ended in disaster and awkwardness.
The next night I went over to Sean's House to wish him good bye since he was leaving to counsel at a camp for a month the next day, Andrew and their friend Caroline was there. Brad unexpectly came over also, awkward to no end. After I stole a pair of Sean's shorts Andrew drove me to Lanie's house where I spent the night there.
The next night I had a date w/ Phil...El Palenque for dinner then we hung out at Fourth of July Park. We caught 3 crawdads-Astrid, Billy-Bob, and Fluffy. we also Walked around and played on the swings. I had a pretty good time. I was home by 9 (with no good night kisses) and then Lindz, Lanie, Andrew and a Awkward Brad came over, at 2 am in the morning i was exactly where i wanted to be, with Brad on my back porch looking at the stars while laying in very comfy lawn chairs. The next night me Lanie and brad went to Hams and to play pool and aimlessly drove around K-Vegas. The next day Brad left for the beach for a week and mom and Maddie went to Bermuda for the weekend. I and Dad did yard work and bonded, we never talk. The next few days were low key and full house work, with Lindz at her dads and Sean and brad gone too. K-Vegas was pretty boring.
Friday, July 1st- Amandine Arrived from France I met her in the DC airport and flew back to Greensboro w/ her. She's staying with us for about 2 weeks and then I'm going home with her to France for about 2. She’s super sweet.
Brad stopped by on the 1st for a like 15 minute’s b/c he got home that day. It was really cool to see him even for a little while. Cheri came into town too.
The next day, Saturday, My Grandma Joe, her Best Friend Joan and my Aunt Dot came into town for the weekend. I and Amandine went with Andrew, Lanie, Brad and this cool kid named Daniel to Play Laser Tag in celebration of Andrew's 19th Birthday, that's some fun stuff.
Sunday we went to church and that Afternoon we had a Huge Party at the house complete with Fireworks. Illegal Fireworks. It was so much fun lots of people were there. There was swimming, food, fun, family, friends, and fireworks. Which are all Great American Traditions and Values.
The next day everyone from out of town left. Me and Amandine Went to the Warthogs Baseball game with Brad and his family and saw the huge Forth of July fireworks-we had sooo much fun. It's been pretty relaxed since then, Me, Amandine, mom and Maddie went to the mall on Tuesday and yesterday we mostly just laid around and hung out at Lanie’s house. Today were playing poker at Brad's and meeting the famous Mike.
Somewhere in all this I hit Brad in the crotch, Ran into Chris, Got asked if I had any plans for boys after I’m through messing with Brad, Got called a Bitch and drove a car.
3 days till Myrtle Beach with Mom, Donna, Lindz, Lanie and Amandine.
w00t.
If the rest of summer is half as good as the 1st part I should have the time of my life.
