*Amanda*

RANDOM Q: MWAH HAHAHAHA

"Pete and Repeat were in a boat, Pete fell out......Who was left??"

Funny :p

"BET YOU CAN'T LAUGH WITHOUT SMILING"...this is a weird video. :)

"EVIL BABY FACE" this is soooo cute.

umm- ya. thats all i have for now. : )

Summer past to present info..................

Wow- there is so much to catch up on because i have not been typing on my blog.....Hmm, where do i start?
Before Texas: The girls came here to visit their friends and family...and on day after cheer pract. i was going to watch the girls and my dad was golfing with a friend so Jeanene and the girls picked me up! I was so so so sooooo excited to see them. That was a fun night. We did craft, walked around the old neighborhood(they used to be my neighbors-), had smores, listened to music and then their mom came to pick them up. : ( but it was all good because after that i would see them in 3 weeks. YAY!

Texas: Texas was sooooo amazing! i had the best time. We went to Galveston Beach, hung out at home, It was Morgans birthday and for her party we went to the movies and watched HANCOCK. It was a pretty good movie, except it was not the best for 10 year olds...the movie cussed quite a bit, we went swimming,went running 3 nights in a row( I've found out its a lot easier to run with more people instead of by yourself). I love being with them. Their so much fun to be around, I always have a smile on my face when i see them. :) Heres a short funny story- one day the girls and i were in the back seat while their mom was driving and her husband called...and when she answered the phone it sounded like she said "Long time no stinky" and then girls and i just burst out laughing so hard while she was on the phone and after she hung up we found out that she really said "Long time no speaky." so ya. Last year we all slept in the same bed. This time we only did that like the first night i was there and the last night. During the other days one of the girls would sleep with me and the other would sleep on the floor. On the way to the airport when i was going home i was proud of myself because i did not cry on the way there. The only time i started to get really teary and bite my lip was before i was going through security and the family i was with was leaving me. But it felt really good to be on my own- like as i was walking through the airport. That was the first time i have ever been alone on a flight. Normally i have been a minor.
On the way to Texas when my dad took me to the airport i had butterflies. i was okay- going through security. I was biting my lip at that time, because its kinda embarrassing to cry in that big of a public area. But i was standing at the gate waiting for the people to let us on the plane and for a sec. i could not hold it in any longer and i rushed tot the bathroom and started to cry- i called my mom and then i cooled myself down and boarded the plane. the first 2 hours felt like FOREVER- i have been so fortunate every time i have flown to and from texas i have always had nice people next to me. It always takes me a while to start talking to them- normally i say hi and thats it for a while...unless they ask me questions. On the way there i told the lady next to me i was so bored i feel like my face is going to fall off. : )

Wow- i have typed a lot. How about some pictures now? so, that way you won't get bored reading all of this. : )

PICTURES OF TEXAS:

-Just a typical day.
-Maddy and Me


-SWIMMING!!

-Morgan and Me

-Just Being Silly


-At their friends house for dinner.(the night before i left.)

-Got Peanut Butter?

okay-next subject,hmmmmmmmmmm

CHEER CAMP: Cheer camp was awesome. it was a UO! GO DUCKS!!!!!!!! the camp was held behind Hayward Field. :) Tons of awesome athletes have been there. we only got the spirit stick once. : ( ummm when we got evaluated on things such as our stunting, crowd cheers and preformance, we got one superior ribbon(the best!) and 2 excellent ribbons( 2nd best). so they had this thing called All*Stars and like 70 people tried out, including me. We had to do the cheer that they taught us. I thought i did good and was confident that i would get it, or make it. But i did not sadly. And if you were on the JV team only 2 people from that team could try out. so my room mate laura did it with me. :) at least i can say i tried out.

I am kinda getting tired of typing at them moment.

Today- i am going to go re-take my written test and then go see my uncle chuck! its been so long since i have seen him. I love him tons.

okay- well gtg

Love,
Amanda

Summertime hi-

So totally out of the blue this girl who i went to middle school with send me a IM on AIM. Its been like 3-4 years!! Its kinda weird but cool. I wonder if thats what High School reunions will be like. I am excited for those! but i still don't want to skip ahead, i want to live every moment of the day.

I just got back from Texas! This is my 3rd year in a row. : ) I will post pictures as soon as my camera decides to cooperate with me. (Its battery opperated and sometimes when i plug it in it will die when the pictures are loading and then the whole loading process stops.) I will post more pictures of texas in another blog when i load pictures, and then i can explain what i did.

Tumbling yesterday was like wow! I am sooooooo sore. When i was in Texas i missed 3 classes of tumbling, so i payed for it this time. We did lunges with weights, A LOT of back-handsprings, GOOD AB WORKOUTS, i am slowly getting toned.

After being in texas and living with the family for 12 days i started thinking to myself that i need to start better eating habits and exersize more. While we were there we ran 3 nights in a row- the girls are training for a triatholon. Cool huh?

I want to start doing runs, i will need to get more in-shape for them, but i think it would be good for me. : )

I turn 16 in 3 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-I am still on the hunt for a car. Right now i know how to drive my dads stick....(its a BMW, VERY VERY nice car) I really just don't want to drive a stick. I told my dad i would learn. And as of August 2nd it is MY car. so we'll see what happens in the end.

Right now there is not much to say.

Cheer Camp is soon. I am excited to go to UO!!! GO DUCKS! If i have not mentioned this before i got on JV again, I was really dissapointed. I am sure i told the whole story in a blog below- if not i will type it later, i am just not in the mood to type it all.

LADIES AND GENTLEMAN-BOYS AND GIRLS-INTRODUCING THE BEST SONG RIGHT NOW!!!!:

"DANCE FLOOR ANTHEM"-GOOD CHARLOTTE

THEIR CD IS WORTH BUYING! and they are outstanding in concert. They opened up for Justin Timberlake!!



This is also my ringtone! I like running to this song.


okay thats enough for now. BYE!

Okay- now i remembered why i was origionally typing this- i was reading old blogs and sometimes i can't believe what i wrote. I wish i could make a book but i don't even know where to start. Maybe someday i will print all of these blogs. lol-

Today i studied my WA State Drivers Guide- gotta get ready for my knowledge test, its like 20 questions and if we miss 5 we have to re-do it. Then once we pass it we have to schedule a drive. YIKES- i am nervous for that even though i will do fine. :)

kk- ttyl. BYE NOW!

♥,

Its been a while, So heres all the info:

So i honestly have not been in a mood to blog lately, but i am anyways- because i have nothing better to do at the moment. Theres been so much, Hmmmm, Where to start? well for one thing its officially been SUMMER for the past WEEK or two. Yesss. I love it. Its so nice to sleep in = )

Cheerleading: Well i had cheer tryouts and this year i was pretty confident that i would make Varsity, but it turns out....I did not make the cut and i made JV for the second year in a row. I was so dissapointed. After that i was considering not to do JV again because of the coach. Last year was her first year coaching.....idk how to explain her. I might later on...anyways, I was going to do ALL STAR CHEER like i did several years ago at VCA (which now is history because of a scandal of the coach.) But it cost soooo much! I called my coach when i decided i was not wanting to do HS cheer, and told her i wanted to do ALL STAR CHEER. After that she said well...Some people have better tryouts than others and some are just better. I totally thought that was way out of the line to say that. Basically i felt that her message was that i was not good enough. I could not afford ALL STAR CHEER so i stuck with High School Cheer.

CHEER PRACTICE: One day at cheer practice we were practicing stunts for like the first time, sorta, and when we were stunting a groups Back Base was not doing that well, so she became a side base, and now the group needed a back...so i said i knew how (I've never done it before but i still know how-). I did it! And i did a very good job. I lifted the flyer up high so the bases holding her felt no weight. Coach was like "WOW! Your doing a good job!" she totally under-estimated me. And then there were 2 stunt groups and one was progressing faster than mine, and then coach was like well' lets watch the "more expierenced" group and watch how they stunt. (because apparently they are doing it perfect of what ever-)She could of just said lets watch this other group and watch your part so you can see what you need to fix. Ok, enough of HS cheer.

TUMBLING!!!!!+ME=I LOVE IT! Tumbling has been so amazing. I prettymuch have my Standing Backhand-spring by myself. I just need a to get more strength in my arms and change my technique. I love it! I have gotten more out of Oxford Tumbling and progressed more than i did at VCA. Its an amazing place. I am getting so strong! We do major ab workouts, and whats nice is that every time we have tumbling we work out for 30 minutes, but she changes up the workouts so we do not get bored! Thats always nice, and they don't really feel like a struggle.

SUMMER: So far i have been really mellow. I WILL BE 16 THIS SUMMER!!!!!!!! OMG- wow. Its scary and i am now a Junior! Weird. Life goes way to quick. I was so excited i got to see MORGAN AND MADDY! I love them so much! They came to WA to see their family. And the day they were going to see me they picked me up after Cheer Practice, and then, The girls hung out like until 10ish while their mom was out with friends, and we had the best time ever. I can not wait until i go see the girls in Texas There is only....
Countdown Clocks at WishAFriend.com I am so excited! I want to get tan~ lol. So, the other night i was considering getting my ears pierced, Because i am in Texas for almost like 2 weeks and that will give my ears enough time to heal. We are not supposed to have are ears pierced, or if we do we can not wear jewelry.

ALMOST 16:THE COUNTDOWN:
Countdown Clocks at WishAFriend.com

YESTERDAY: Kendall, My Mom and I went to the TIM McGraw CONERT!!!!! OMG he is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute! This is not the best picture of him, But ya- here it is. : )

Now: I am going to call EMILY! yay- i hope shes home.

Love Ya'll

♥Amanda♥

P.S
If you did not know, I have Braces! I will post pictures later, I currently have a Aqua Blue color! I love it. When i first got them they were Pink and Yellow alternating! Lol. okay now, ttyl. BYE!!!

okay so i know i was supposed to go, but i remembered more about what i was going to sya about cheer.

CHEER CONT: After i told my coach i did not want to do HS cheer, she told the Varsity coach later on (Mrs.Botnen)-(That night there was a cheer meeting) and the Varsity Cheer coach texted me and was like " So whats this i hear about you not doing cheer?" And i told her i would get back to her because i was in the car with my neighbor and her daughter, we were coming home from target. And I told Karla (my neighbor,mom. Daughter=Riley) what was going on and i mentioned i really don't know how to tell botnen that. Karla said "The best thing you can do is be honest and tell the truth" and when we arrived at her home i hung out more, and then She asked her husband,Jim, if possibly he had any advice (he works at the high school with botnen) He gave me some good insight, agreed with Karla and said when it comes down to choices, The Choice is yours...No one else can make that decision.He also said that him and Botnen talk all the time about me, and he said that she loves me. lol. not like in a love way- but she cares a whole lot. She is a really great person. So later on i called Botnen while i was still over there, (Riley was in the room with me) and i explained its not because i did not make Varsity, although i was dissapointed, It was mainly the coach and then Botnen asked me if i could give any examples and i did...But i was so over whelmed that it was hard to think. I also told her i felt like i was letting her down by saying i was not wanting to do HS cheer. She wanted me to go to that meeting that night and at least try it for a season. So i agreed. She wants to meet with my mom and me sometime so we can talk about how i feel about coach, I still need to do that. I keep badgering my mom about it but shes always like, oh this week does not work for me lets do it next week...and then the next week comes and the routine continues. Coach came upto me later, and she was like "Can i just tell you I am glad you considered it" (her eyes started to well up but it felt like an act to me, she can be so full of herself). okay- wow lots of gossip huh? lol. I never stop talking....lol

ok- now i am going to call emily! (hopefully shes home!)

hi~

ummm hi~

ummmm hi~

I got a pair of COACH shoes today!!!! YAY~ at my moms work ( Nordsrtom) they had 40% off Coach shoes. So i got a pair, they are cute. I am coming more complete with coach....well sorta. I have a pair of shoes, purse and a coin purse.

The past couple of days have been so beautiful!!!! We had girl Scout Camp last weekend! IT WAS AWESOME!!!! Each year the older girls (thats me- we were the oldest troop there!) do a ending skit, so i brought my ipod and speakers and i played the song humuhumunukanukapuapa (how ever you spell it~) From High School Musical and i was Ryan, Tori was Sharpay, Emily was dancing in a spongebob costume and that was it. OMG WOW- we got so much applause for that! it was a lot of fun and totally last minute. iF I HAVE A video i will post it,

I just called Em' and she was at work- so i am waiting for her to call me back, and my guess is that emily is probaly the only one reading this, so HI EM'! I will talk to you soon! Hopefully!

In ASL we are signing a Fairy Tale and my group is doing Cinderella! It will be cool!

Hmmm- what else- tomorrow is mothers day! I finger painted my mom a card. YAY~ its been forever since i have done that. it turned out cool! i will post what we got my mom for mothers day later, just in case she reads this or something~.....idk.

I really don't know what else to say. I would post pictures from GS camp but my camera needs new batteries.

FACT: DO NOT GET A BATTERY OPERATED CAMERA~ if you do buy GOOD RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES!!!!!!!! so once i get new ones i will upload them. : )

I am so ready for summer- its almost here. Only one month away.

Recently i have been taking TMBLING CLASSES!!YAY~ its been fun! I have not done tumbling for life a year. My backhandsprings are good. we do them on this blow up (kinda like a carnival bouncy jumpy thing but its more firm for cheer) thing and yeah. Its cool! I take lessons at OXFORD> even though i said i would never go there, look where i am now. lol~ Cheer tryouts are soonish..... *sigh* i am excited but a lil nervous,

I was playing Piano the other night and i figured out a chord for "Free Fallin" and i want to learn the rest of the song, but i could not find how to play it on youtube. Thats how i learned to play the intro of the office theme song. lol~ anyways. BYE!


Love,
Amanda~

100th POST! WOW-

So i was watching a recorded American Idol after school today and i loved this preformance. I closed my eyes- and all of a sudden when Jason started to sing, i felt this presence of someone reaching their hand out to it. I slowly brought my hand out and (i guess i will name the presence it) It pulled me up off the couch and i started dancing(ballroom style) around the room i was in.( i don't know which room it is) Now, i know it sounds cheesy but it was cool. I only wish i knew who i was dancing with. I think it was on of my family members who have passed. Either my Uncle Dick or Auntie K.K. its hard to say who it was. But after the song was over i was just like wow! thats cool. So heres the video. I wanted to share that with ya'll and heres the video! If your just wanting to watch him sing....he starts singing at like 1:49


Today is TAKE YOUR CHILD TO WORK DAY!
So many High schoolers stayed home and did nothing. Why did i not do that? On my was to 6th period i went to go say hi to Mr.Gray and his kids Riley and Joe, So they came with me to my 6th period class (ASL). It was kinda cool. They might have been a little bored though... Then before the bell rang i walked them back to their dad and Mr.Gray gave me a ride home. That was very nice of him.

O0o0o0o0o- If i have not mentioned it yet. I DROVE MY DADS STICK SHIFT THE OTHER DAY! YAY ME!!!!!!! its really easy shifting while your driving, i just have a hard time starting it. So thats about it. um yeah.

Tomorrow i leave for PASCO,WA- oh joy! 4 hour bus ride! It is our last choir competition and we are taking all the choirs. so we will probally have 2 BIG charter buses. It will be a lot of fun with everyone.

The past few nights i have been thinking about the Seniors in our choir, and how sad I will be to see them go. I have not come close with every one of them, but their still apart of our choir and i have a feeling that next year something will be missing. There are so many GREAT seniors who have GREAT voices and know what they are talking about. So if any of you are reading this...I will miss you all bunches!

Thats all for today- or now...

Love,
Amanda


PS-
Sorry my 100th post is not too exciting..........

here i have a word that is exciting..........you ready......for this??????



BUBBLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

read what ever you choose, THERES A LOT!

So a lot has gone on lately on the past few weeks, I just never felt like getting on the blog and typing, i wrote it down in my "diary"/notebook instead. I will grab it and write what i wrote.

TODAY~
I was VERY TIRED. But i made it through the school day. It was really cold so my dad picked me up at the bus stop and and we went to Stevens school to drop off a jacket for track, because he did not have one. After that we went to the mini mart and i got a DR.Pepper for me, a MT.DEW for steven and a bag of sour cream and onion chips. Then we left to go see my Uncle Chuck. He lives in a retirement home, he has alz timers. I pray to god that he will stay by his side, keep him healthy and be his guidance. I was really bummed because we did not get to see him because he is on this new medication and apparently he is really sleepy. So yeah. after we figured that out, we went to dinner (Steven,Dad and I) at SWEET TOMATOS. It was YUMMY. I ate pretty healthy too. the only thing i did not enjoy was watching my brother eat. OMG he is like a dinosaur! RAWR!
BRB i gotta get my glasses......My eyes hurt with out them. BRB~
IM BACK! okiedokie

Um recently like this weekend, I DROVE MY DADS STICK SHIFT. I don't know how many times i cried with fustration. GRRrrr...But i actually got it, I rolled around in the parking lot. Its really easy to shift while im driving but starting it is hard for me. I saw the movie HORTON HEARS A WHO. That is the cutest movie ever. They did a good job. My favorite quote is.........
"A person's a person no matter how small"
I hung out with Savannah and Maddie for a bit. That was fun- we watched a random movie called Black Sheep. It was in WA. cool huh? not really.

The weather here has been so awkward! we went from 80 degree weather to light rain, heavy rain, hail, some light thin snow, more rain....i don't like it here. and its been FREEZING TOO! well i am very cold all the time but seriously! Its cold here!

I am learning(teaching myself) how to play "The Office" theme song. I almost got it. THe transition to repeat it is tricky for me. I learned it on youtube. gotta love it! lol-

okay now to the more past-ish.

I was stressed a while ago and here is what was bugging me:
Entry 1-
~When i was driving i kept making mistakes...My mom was grouchy (before i was driving) because our neighbors cat, Lincon goes into our garage and like to leave his "mark." Its been going good for a while, the only reason my parents get mad is because we have furniture in there...so my mom got mad, and she sorta ticked me off because she was "Over reacting" and acting silly.
~At the blazer game we left early but i wanted to stay longer. My dad said in about the 3rd quarter we will leave about 4 minutes until the game is finished...They are going to lose anyway. I disliked the comment because you should never give faith, hope or your drive to complete a task. Its always good to stay positive!!
~I always want to cuss, sometimes i do, but not loudly, pretty much in a wisper to myself. And i don't like it. But i hear it so much its almost natural.
~There is a girl in choir who annoys me, ( i will not mention the name) .I did not mind her before, but her characteristics are so BIG and EXTREME! When i listen to the choir recordings from last year i can pick out her voice in every song. Its annoying, now its hard for me to enjoy the song. lol-
Entry 2-
~Sometimes i feel like i don't have any friends, well i do, they are just really good friends! and mostly all my other friends i know are "good friends/aquantices".
~I was babysitting for my neighbors while there was a poker party, i was wathing Riley, Joe, Garin, Carley and her friend(5 kids) We played kick ball joe cried twice, the first time was becuse he was fusterated the second time carlys friend(sarah) was rude to him. Riley got hit by a door that swung back and hit her in the arm. That left a big mark. She cried. When Brenda (Garins mom) came to pick up Garin my mom was with her. SHe was not too happy about hte kids running around. And she wanted to make sure i knew where they were and stuff like that. She pretty much implied that i was not responsible . That made me feel really bad. So i apoligized to Brenda she said "it was fine"/ I am guessing she was not happy about it. When Jim and Karla got home i apoligized to them. I felt bad. Jim's response was "Its okay honey we trust you." the comment was nice but i still felt bad. Then Karla got home and said it was okay too. She was more worried about Joe running around. When i went to bed that night i sorta had a small feeling that i was not real. I fell asleep to my music. I was stressed about our comprehension test on the book Tings Fall Apart. but i did okay. I am not good at comprehending books that i have to read for school for some reason.

OKAY WOW!!!! I have typed bunches. should i stop and post another entry later? nah. i'll keep going, you can read what you feel like.

Entry 2 cont-
What was bugging me,
*School project in english
*What my mom said when i was babysitting
*Maybe the WASL got to me?
*not feeling real
*Test on Things Fall Apart

So i took my dog for a walk and i called my old neighbor Jeanene. It was nice to talk to her. Then she said its good to pray! and even though i don't want to tell my mom. So i did. I don't think she was happy that i went ot Jeanene first....But she got over it. lol- and i asked her if she ever had something that was bugging her and not tell her mom- and she said she did nto have a good relationship with her, so that ruins my scenario.


I CANT WAIT UNTIL SUMMER!!!!!
I get to go to Texas, i don't know the dates yet....

SPRING BREAK-2008!~WOO HOO~!

hi!


For the past 2 days it had been SNOWING! And its MARCH.....i think the Weather person, or who ever controls the worlds Weather thinks its like JANUARY! It had not stick but its just interesting to watch.


HAPPY SPRING BREAK TO ME!!!!!!!!!! (idk if your on spring break too, so i only said it to me. And if you are you can post a comment and say it to yourself!)

On Wednesday i leave for CALIFORNIA with the CHOIR to ANEHIEM! I AM EXCITED, but i would rather spend time with my parents, like last year we went to ANEHIEM (that was my 1st time in disneyland) and we got to go all over, like Huntington Beach, Corona(to see some friends, and eat and IN N' OUT BURGER!!!!!!!!!!!! THE YUMMIEST BURGERS EVER!) anyways we did a lot of cool things, Going with the choir kind of restricts us from what we can do. Don't get me wrong, we are doing a lot of cool things but still......
okay enough of my comlaints on that, oh theres one more, We leave WED night 8PM ( we have to take a CHARTER BUS.....it takes like 14+ hours to get there, the ride will be interesting. )

TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF MY SPRING BREAK Actually yesterday after school was, And now i do not have to look at my back pack for one whole week. YESSSS.

Last night Dad and I watched MR.Beans Holiday! It was pointless, silly, dumb entertainment. It was perfect for last night.

Well i am going to go see Danica and meet her at Vancouver Lake, her brother ummmm does Rowing what do you call that? i forgot. Well i am going to watch his meet. OH ITS CALLED CREW. and they will probably take me home after that. Its cold and wet here. *sigh* but i will do it because 1) i told Danica i would and ummmm 2)Its nice to spend time with her.

Well i am going to go dress warm and leave.

Love,
Amanda

TODAY IS EASTER

I had a first today,


I drove through 2 driver through's! YAY ME! I did it in my moms van. I went through Panda Express and Jack in the Box. I am sooo full at them moment.

HAPPY EASER EVERYONE!

I am going to go to church tonight, the late service is called accent. Its candle lit. Its so cool.

well not a first but a second i am going to wax my upper lip...i know when you read this you will scrunch your nose and say ewwwwww. Its really not noticible but its enough to where i notice it. SO yeah- but i am going to do it myself. YIKES!
My mom and i both are. This will be intersting considering one time she waxed off part of her eyebrow....and her thought was there is no way she could do that to her other one.... Can you guess what happened? Yup/ she did. lol- it was right before our Hawaii trip too. Bummer.

Danica slept over Friday night. We had fun...we were sorta zombies in the morning but we aways have fun. We like to destruct stuff. This time we smashed a fart machine that was broken. :p In the past we have smashed a alarm clock, potatos, golf balls, doorbell, light switch ummmmmm i think thats it so far. were cheaply entertained.

I also had my conference on Friday morning. Its a Student Led Conference. I did really well, i have been doing these since like 7th grade...i don't necessarily like them but in HS it is required to graduate. SO if i want to graduate I should do it. My adviror is Mrs.Botnen the Varsity Cheer Coach. She is really nice. I always see her outside of school at my neighbors poker parties. He is a teacher at my HS and there are always a bunch of teachers from school there, and my neighbors too! Its nice having my neighbor at school...he can give me rides after school if i need them, i can say a quick hi every now and then when i have time or if i ever need him for anything, i.e advice, lunch money ect. he will always be there.

Nothing else left to say....
but HAPPY EASTER AGAIN!


Love,
