last friday & Today...short version

its my mommys birthday tomoarrow. YAY!

OKay so on um, last FRIDAY:

we had a two hour late start (when we had all the SNOW) and i got up early and packed my lunch and had everything ready and went back to bed. On my way to the bus stop i slipped so many times, because you could not really see the ice and to add on to that i was wearing my converse(rubber on the bottom of the shoe) so yeah. And i was in a hurry so i left with out my lunch, and once i realized it I was like oh my gosh, what am i going to do? so i asked Tori, Kendall, Emily and then i called my mom and she said she could not bring the money. And I saw Jim(Mr.Gray/hes a teacher at SHS also my neighbor) when i came into school and then he went upstairs and was well yeah, nvm ... and so later on that day before 3rd period i went to ask him if i could borrow money for lunch( for some reason i was nervous but then i thought why should i be, when he is my neighbor and a really nice guy!) So yeah, he told me to go to class then he would bring it to me. When he came into class to give it to me, He told Mr.Selby ( Jokingly) "I had to give her some money, she lives in the poor part of town..." I laughed and said "YEP, i am just deprived of money." :-p and that was the first day i bought my lunch. I got a Cheese Burger w/ fries( it was good, Skyviews fries are so goooooood!) and i bought Pizza today. Well i am gonna go, just wanted to post a little update. So yeah-

Love Ya'll,

SNOW DAY! SNOW SNOW SNOW~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I love snow; We have had 2 snow days in a row. Yesterday i was up for school @ a regular time 5:50, go downstairs and as i did i was like hmm "Why is the neighborhood all white?" and i thought nothing of it, so i went on eating breakfast and making my lunch and as i put it in my backpack i was like OH MY GOSH! theres SNOW! so i ran upstairs and woke up steven.
conv:
Amanda: "Steven! STEVEN! wake up its snowing!"
Steven:"Huh, are you serious?"
Amanda:"Yes why else would i be waking you up this early?"
Steven:"SERIOUS?"
Amanda:"YES YES YES!, c'mon and look"
Conv:end
so yeah we played in the snow since 7Am-about 4pm and my arms are sore.

Thank God i did not take the bus, it got stuck on our BIG BIG BIG hill and that would be scary. and like all the kids got transported to school and then had to evacuate the building because they closed it around 7:30 when school starts) so because it was closing everyone had to get out of the school and wait outside. and yeah thats it for the snow day yesterday! Nadine came over for dinner last night and we had spageitti yummy!!!!!!! and i colored nadine a curious george picture.( i got a curious george coloring book from target in the $1 section) YAY ME!

Today:
I slept in until about 10:30 did not go outside until about 1 and then we had a snowball fight! it was fun except for i got hit in the eye with a snowball. :-( It stung really bad and my eye was watering a lot. I made a miniature snowman for emily!!!! (don't worry em' i took pictures) I just got back from the snow about 3:30 PM and now i am going to have some Hot Choclate. YUM! bye bye!
Love ya'll,
Amanda!

Runthrough of the weekend to today!

OKAY!!!!!!!!!! i'm here, Its been a while since i have typed.

NEW YEARS:
Well lets start off with New Years. It was soooooooooo much fun!
Danica and her family came over, we had most of the neighbors at our house... and just some family friends. It was awesome. Danica finally slept over( everytime we see each other we wanna have a sleep-over but it never seem to work out) and we stayed up until 4 AM and yeah we were so tired the next day it was sad. Danica brought over some silly string so we had a silly string fight. Anthony cam out later and started playing with us and we were chasing him and he fell in like this sewer thing in the ground and cut his leg and tore something in his knee. I offered to help him but he was being stubborn and said no. I know if that was me i would be crying so hard. (sometimes i don't like that i am so emotional but then again i don't mind) and it turns out he got a staff infection that is in his blood( if he did not get anti-biodics for it, he could have died in a month) i really don't know what it is but then again i don't know a lot of things.

Random Info:
I am babysitting garin for the next 15 weeks....about every friday....only i think i won't have to some days because they will be gone.

Saturday:
I babysat Mattea Saturday night. She was so cute, She always kept comming up to me and giving me a hug saying "I LOVE YOU~" and then i was trying to get her to go to bed, so we watched 2 movies.....One was the Little Mermaid and i am not sure about the other one. I fell asleep (as usual...lol) and yeah. I was tired from the night before. Chris walked me home and before i went in, he said "I really was the best" that made me feel really good and happy but i think i was so tired i really diddint say thank you in as much of a caring way as i would if i was more awake.Before i went over to Matteas mom and I went shopping at um,,, i don't know somewhere far-ish. We had fun, i got some new make-up i got....
Fresh Lipgloss-Satine(satine=name of color & Fresh is the brand)
2 eye shaddows (soft gold and a really bright awesome blue)
and that was about it, we were going to see the movie Dream Girls but we did nto have time.

Sunday:
I slept in and just chilled at home. I will admit at times it was boring but all in all it was fun. we cleaned the house. re-aranged stevens room, and fun stiff like that. Then we went to IZZYS for dinner. i did not wanna go but it was not that bad. I decided i need to get in good shape when i try out for my High School Varsity Cheer Team. I am hoping i get on it, but if not i will try for JV also. Morgan and maddy called me. I was so excited because i always call them, it was nice for a change! I told morgan i missed her so much and she said " I want to see you soon." that made me happy, i wish i could too, hopefully i could see them in the summer. :-) i am still a minor for one more year and OH MY GOSH I CAN DRIVE THIS YEAR! AHHHHHHHH well get my permit this year and take drivers ed.

Today:
I stayed home sick-ish. I woke up with an upset stomach and slept in until 10. It is now 11:52 AM lol, i also have a very annoying hand cramp from typing. I'm hungry.....hm, what should i have to eat? I decided last night i want a LITTLE MERMAID birthday party. :-0 lol. So yeah but i am only going to invite my close-est friends to that, lol. so thats about it. i will have major Homework when i come back tomoarrow. Thats the only part about HS that sucks, you get a lot of Homework.


Well i am going to go eat. BYE!

Love,
Amanda

PIctures/ AKA 24/7 Today

I am really feeling Lazy right now and don't want to write a blog but just because i am so excited,

So today i slept in until about 10:45 ish, I took a shower and got my hair cut. (I will post pictures later.) Its awesome, i got it layered, with bangs and shoulder length. YUP! after that Mom and I went to Safeway and got food for dinner....As we came home about 10 minutes later the phone rang................
"Ring..........."
"Ring"...................

My mom answered and she was like
Mom: "hello?"
Emily: "Hi this is Emily, Can i talk to Amanda please."
Mom: "Emily who? Emily davis? Westmorland?(sorry if i spell your last name wrong)"
Emily: "Yeah."

So yeah i won't post our conversation but it was cool. I was so excited i got to talk to her. She beat me, I was wgonna call her first on Our Christmas Eve and their Christmas. Were 17 hours apart. But really all you have to do is count 7 hours ahead or backwards from your time.
That made my christmas 100% better.(not that it was bad, it just made my day extremely better) I got an early christmas present and i get to call emily once a month and each month has certian pre-paid minutes. So thats good and we can keep in contact more.When Emily called it was about 10 in the mornin and 3 in the afternoon here My fact is proven correctly if you minus 3 from 10 you get 7 hours. even though its a 17 hour differenct all you have to count if 7 hours ahead or behind.

A cool fact she told me was that in Austrialia they go by Celcius instead of Farenheit. um, Instead of Inches they use Cinimeters. And they don't celebrate Thanksgiving because its an American holiday and the last time they celebrated thanksgiving was with my family when we were really little and ate ice cream turkeys.

----Did i tell you all it snowed? i'm sure i did, I am just very forgetfull and sometimes i relate my personality to Dory, from Finding Nemo.
I wonder if i cna post a video in my blog somehow. I can try.
I'm sure most people i tell to read my blog don't because it is so long!...I am going to post a new blog after christmas with pictures, but i betcha i will post one before then. I don't know.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PICTURE 1:
So what you see right here is my Ice Cream Turkey.

Flavor: Choclate Chip Cookie Dough

Same as always.

Their cute arn't they?
You can buy them at Basket n' Robbins.
(i wonder why thats the name of the store,) i am spacing lines because i want it to be as long as the picture so you won't have to get confused on what is what...but i bet it will get mixed up when i publish the blog, i don't know.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Picture 2 & 3:
Theres me eating my Ice Cream Turkey.

That was for you Emmy.
Every year i think of you when i get my ice cream turkey.

What flavor did you get?


okay moving on to more pictures.......................




-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Picture 4: See it snowed! This was on my back deck. My finger became numb after writing all of it.














-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Picture 5:

Heres my school picture. I don't mean to brag but this is the BEST school picture i have ever had!!!! I am so happy and proud of it. The people who took it were so fast and it was so easy, Our High School gets their pictures taken in the Summer when we pick up our schedules.









-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Picture 6:
This is not really an exciting picture but i was so happy, i put on fake nails. They look pretty. Someday i will put them on like acrilic. These were just stick on, the glue was already on them. I don't want to use glue because i don't want to accdently rip my nail of and have it break.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OKay well as much as i am having FUN with all the pictures and stuff, i am going to go downstairs and eat dinner. Its 5:37 and stuff smells good downstairs!
Maybe i will try posting a funny video or good video later tonight.
Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Love Forever and Always,
Amanda~Elizabeth~H.

There will be more pictures later.
I love ya'll
(ya'll is so much fun to say)
bui bye!

weird mood, just felt like typin 2 ya'll

*UGH* i feel like i just need to let somehting out but i can't exactly find it....Its hiding from me. I am in a weird mood, I am also sick to, So that has to do a lot with it. I have a soar throat, stuffy nose, little headache and yeah thats it, a little cough too! I was excited because i got an e-mail from emily saying she sent me a letter and asked if i have recieved it yet? and i have not, we did not get our mail yesterday so i was like just going to get it now and then my dad said he got it but there was nothing from emily. Then i had like this Magic Eraser thing that gets dust off of doors, so i was stuck with cleaning that. It was not that exciting. Mom said "I looked like Cinderella"
(AHHHHHHHH THERES MONSTERS COMMING TO EAT ME! lol, just kidding, that was random)
What does RADOM mean?
There really is no answer Or atleast thats what i think.

So how is everyone? I am bored.....la,la,la,la, Its CHRISTMAS BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tomoarrow, For Girl Scouts were going to ellens house. All of us are doing this thing that apparently gets to know ourselfs better, This will be intresting. I am listening to a weird songright now, Its "Take A Chance With Me" By:Avalon
I found the song that i never knew who sang it, The song is titled "Can't get you out of my head" By:Kylie Minogue She is like a Techno artist That song is on the CD "FEVER", My friend EMily from austrialia told me about her and also another good singer she toled me about is "Delta Goodrem" and one last person/artist is "Brian McFadden, the CD is Irish Son"
So yeah thats my update on things.
I am just on IM and pretty much doing nothign else. BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE!
only
8 more days till CHRISTMAS!
7 more days till CHRISTMAS EVE!
16 more days till NEW YEARS EVE!

all about yesterday and today!

Today was the last day of this year! well I mean Christmas Break- January 1st ( i am pretty sure) Is NEW YEARS EVE! YAYAYAYAYAY! its so lame we can't have fireworks!
The LAW is there can be NO fireworks on New Years Eve enev though its the rainest time and they allow it on the fourth of july! when its extra warm and humid..... YUP!!!!!! CHRISTMAS is in 10 days!

So today after school i went home with Sara & Emily (sarah is her sis) and we got in a car crash. it was very small. it was like just so bluarry it was weird, like we were comming down the road and its a downhil(very small down hill) road and there is a stop sign and all the cars stopped fast and we all did not notice and we kept moving while all the cars are stopped and we hit the car infront of us. Honestly there was only a scratch on their car and sarahs car is somewhat ok- Thank goodness it was very very minor and then the lady who we hit called the police when there was nothing wrong. The weird thing was is that i noticed we were moving and the cars were stopped but it was like a delayed reaction. It was weird. I just thank God that he protected us all. And don't get me wrong and think i am saying sarah is a bad drvier, SHES NOT! shes a GOOD driver but mistakes happen to all of us! thats just life.

okay, so enough about my depressing random story that happened to me,
hmmmm...... what else can i think of saying

I quit cheer! it turns out we never were going to go the the JAMFEST competiton and the Tigard one. we did not go because we were not ready. Neil was starting to get really rude and treating us in a way we should not be treated. I had to leave. I was miserable! So i decided i am going to join High School Cheer next Year, I want to get on VARSITY!(Varsity all the way bebe)

Um, we had our winter assembly at school the orchstra and band played and we sang, not offens to Band and orchstra i was about to fall asleep. lol.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE CHRISTMAS! its a happy season even though its cold

okay it was scary this morning at the bus stop i heard this chopping noise(sounded like a guy chopping wood w/ an axe) and then later after that i say this guy on the roof(where i heard the noise frrom) and he flickerd the light off and on 1 time and then dissapered slwoly, i thought I was gonna die, just kidding. it was scary though. We had a BIG BIG BIGGGGGG wind storm last night. it was scary! I got my bowling t-shirt! it says "Sweetie" and Kendalls says "Pie"
So while i was waiting for the other teams to get dones tori, rakia and i and some other people were on the bus and the wind gusts were fast and the bus was rocking. and when we got to school dad picked me up and i ran to the car it was so windy that i almost could not get to the car.....plus heavy rain. I also saw Mrs.Leblanc at freddy's(Fred Meyer)
Thats all for now.

Love Always,
Amanda Elizabeth!

Tech-A English 9-A Math- B- Choir-A ASL-A My GPA was a 3.765( how come they don't round it to 3.8? or is it already rounded?) and then i learned in tech class that if we keep a A Average this whole year we get 7 credits towards college!

sport but at least i get to be with my friends. My highest score is like a 96. Somedays a good somedays are bad....such as our last pract. i got a 45 on my first game and like a 62 on my second. i got a stike on my frist bowl. : ) YAY ME!

skyview WON!!!!!! And other stuff~~~~~~~

WOAH~ my blog is cool now, I just changed my um what do you call it. hmm, I think its a template.
I got to go SHOPPING! today. I love shopping, I mean what girl does not love shopping?
SKYVIEW WON!
N.B.L.C (nothin' But Lead Champ's!)
Next we are going to Semi Finals and I think we have to win 3 games to make it to state! That would be awesome. I missed Trey the other night. It feels weird that he is not at the games anymore. But his mom was there cheering the team on!

Okay so when I went to the game I went with Lauren & her friend Megan.. I stayed with Riley and joe and Carly and somehow my wallet fell out of my purse when I did not notice and apparently they announced " There has been a unidentified wallet, so if its yours come and get it." and later on they confirmed it was a skyview Student, so before the game was over I was with riley and I was like " Do you have my wallet?" and she said no... Then I asked Jo and Carly and they both said no, and then I asked karla and she said no.... lol ( get the pattern) we looked all over and then this lady was like well there was an announcement that there was a lost wallet found and I was like OH MY GOSH! Maybe its mine, and it was. Thank God! I was so scared!

Well yeah so that's my story about the game, and threes not much new around here. Except for more and more and more and more than you can think of RAIN!!!!! Boring.... Its so depressing.

Did I ever tell you how tall I am? I am 4'11.5 I mean C'mon only .5 more to grow to be 5'...... That's not cool! :( oh well. I decided I am going to go to bed early tonight, even though I get a ride every other morning... ( I get one tomorrow, I can never spell that word right! Did I spell it right? I hope so!)
there is more I want to say but I can't think of it. Well I will talk to you all soon.
BYE BYE!

Love always,

my trip to the dentist!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Guess what happend to me today?

I went to the dentist to get my teeth cleaned and then later on i pulled two for my "I Teeth" out. I was so surprised it did not hurt that bad. :) They gave me Laughing Gas(only it did not really make me laugh, it made me happy and relaxed.) and then my dentist (Dr. Pete) told me a poem about clouds. and he stopped in the middle of it and asked, "Are you sure you want to hear the rest?" I said " YES!" so he went on and on and on until i was about numb enough and relaxed. It was a awesome poem, i enjoyed it! and he told me a quote, ( i was scared to get my teeth pulled because i have never done that before and i have had 0 cavities! go me!) and it was by Martin Luther King "Those who are scared of Death, are afraid to live their life." and when you apply it to your own situation it gives you confidence,(well at-least for me it does.)

My mom was scared for me. But Dr.Pete just kept telling me to trust him and he would never do anything to hurt me, he is realy nice. (He wants to go see one of my choir concerts sometime, cool huh? I have been going there since i was 2)...Honestly i would not have trusted anyone else but him to do it.i am proud of myself! I did not cry!!!!! thats pretty good for me, considering( if you do not know this already about me) I am terrified of Doctors Offices and Hospitials. Even though they are there to help me i can't stand going there. I think it is because form when i was a baby i was born 2 months early(pre-mature) i got pricked with needles a lot reason 1- so i was healthy and reason 2-so i did not have any illnesses. so instead of being born in August my birthday would be in October, burrrrrrrrrrrr!

just kidding,
okay well i am going to go now. Goodnight everybody!

Love,
Amanda!

Our Varsity Football Team is................... N.B.L.C (nothin' But Lead Champions) yayayayayayay!

We made it to state finals and i think we are 4th in state! *Achoo, Achoo* (Excuse me, i sneezed.)

Random:

What would you say if someone asked you what random means? there is really no explanation for it...... even I the one and only GREAT GREAT AMANDA does not know. (lol, sorry i was having fun)

You know what i just thought of..... I am pretty much talking to myself when i am typing this because i don't think anyone i know reads it frequently enough to keep up with me. lol- hmm, i wonder if anyone reads it.... well i know some people do because i ask them 2. and see here i go again just rambling(*tee-hee* i got that from emily its kinda fun to say and type, i LUV U EMILY!) on and on and on and on.

Cheer:
It turns out we have our first Cheer competition on either Dec.2nd or 12th something with a 2. that is awesome! we are doing a JAM-FEST COMPETITION! OMG THAT IS SOOOO COOL! JAM-FEST is a BIG BIG BIG competition. we have never gone before. and were also going to nationals. i will type the list of them later.

Homework:
I really don't have a lot of homework. Its the end of this Semister already. instard of having trimesters we have semisters. I really don't see why the VANSD changed it but who cares.

School/Classes:

1st-Science/ working on a color lab, we have color wheels and we spin them and observe what color we see and write it down, we have to do a whole Lab write-up those are not fun espicially when its a lot of pts.

2nd & 3rd-Tech & Lit/ working on a project. (book project) its a really fun project though, i don't know how to explain it. and in Lit. we have a test, STUDY!!!!!!

4-th-Math/Have a Test tomarrow on Module 3 GOTTA STUDY!

5th-Choir/ there is like no Homework in that calsee, the songs we are singing is..... "Harambee", "Carol of the Bells", "Winter Carol" , " O come, O come Emmanuel" yeah thats it. their pretty coolsongs, i don't really like "Harmbee" its swahili(jamician sound to it)

6th-ASL/
We just finished our quarter projece, we had to memorize a SCARY Urban Legend(for halloween) and present it to the class, you take out words such as, like, it, to, he, she, the, they, ect. and yeah i went up and presented and i did horible! well it was not that bad, we had to present it infront of a camera, YIKES! Camera+me=BAD, very nervous.
We had to write a 1 page reflection because my teacher did not think i did it, but right as he said that my video came on the T.V. and he scored me and i got a 90/100 halleiugh. i got saved by an angel. i thought i was going to get only 50% because i did not know the whole thing or all my words. yeah i was really scared about my grade today. so i hope it all turns out good.

As far as GRADE wise i am doing realy good in all my classes except for math i think. i have like a C- or C+ i am not sure. but we have a test tomarrow and i am praying that i get a much better score on this one than my previous tests.

I will chat with ya'll later,

Sorry if i bored you with school stuff in all.

School Sports:
For Cheerleading we have to try out this year to get on the team next year. the tryouts are in May. i wanna try out for VARSITY but i am not sure if i can make it on there or not. i have cheered for 4 years....and i don't know. There was only one sophmore on it this year..... so i am going to try out for Varsity and cross my fingers i make the team.

Skyview also has a compettive Cheer team, so if they are good i will probally join skyviews cheer team, and compettive and quit VCA.

But only i really don't want to quit VCA because its where i started from and i don't know, i like it there. but you never know skyview cheer might be more fun. Varsity is a really good team!

OK seriously now i will shut up! BYE BYE!

Last night:Trey Foote

Last NIGHT:
It was tori's Birthday party.
Before that: I had a chior concert to go to. It was fun! and after that i left early to go to toris house so we could go to the skyview V.S. Battle Ground game.!!!!!!!!!!!! it was so sweet, it we came at like the middle of 3rd quarter only because my chior concert was late. and i think they should have canceled it because of whats going on this week and the football game is important!
At the end of the game everyone ran out on the field! and we got in this BIG CIRCLE (more like a huddle with 100's of people!) and we nealed down so Mr.Little could say a few words. It was sad. We took a moment of silence for Trey. after that treys dad Jim Foote said " Keep him in your hearts forever." so their idea was that we(everyone 100's of people) got flashlights and shined them up to trey and as we were doing that we were singing
na-na-na-na na-na-na-na hey-hey-hey goodbye! and then we got quieter and softer and then we all just started to hum it. and i am pretty sure i was the only one who saw it but i saw a shooting star in the sky. I wanted to cry more but for some reason i couldn't, i don't like that feeling.
Once we got home we watched the news and they all had brief news stories.
Honestly i did not know him but form this week i fell like i have known him for most of my life. The Foote family is so brave. Their family is really nice.

Friday at School:
At 1:00 (almost end of 5th per) we had a circle assembly.
circle assembly-where the whole school gathers around the balcony and downstairs floor. we all listen to Mr. Little, normally its before a game.
That day we took a moment of silence. you could just tell that everyone was sad. then at the end everyone got in a big circle in the middle of the cafiteria around the football players and at first i thought they were saying.....
"We will pray, we will prey, we will prey, for God."
and then they started to get louder and louder and i thought they were saying
"we will prey, we will prey,we will prey for trey!" (i started crying)
but what they were really saying is............
"WE'RE READY, WE'RE READY, WE'RE READY FOR YA'LL" After we were done chanting that Mr.Little said "okay lets give a Skyview shout-out to Trey one last time! GIVE ME AN "S" (S) GIVE ME AN "H" (H) GIVE ME AN "S" (S) WHATS THAT SPELL? SHS,SHS,SHS,SHS. GO STORM!"
I was so sad i could not even chant. this week has just been really rough alone. not very fun.
so yeah, aparently i have bad hearing. and it was sad. i cried going to 6th period.
It was all over the news. its pretty cool in a sad way. and then also in the huddle we started saying
"WE LOVE TREY! WE LOVE TREY WE LOVE TREY"
Last night was a very special night.
We love you and miss you trey. :)
-The skyview family.

Thats all for now.

Love,
Amanda

-Amanda

It makes me feel sad that i never told Trey or Amanda what that guy said, if you look at my blog the previous page, or under this one... i don't know.

Coach Kiezer(Head football coach) and Mr.Little (principal) were very sad. I wonder how Mr.Grey is doing- he also coached football.

I send my BEST OF WISHED to their family. Were all here for you! :)
*Hugs*

weekend update!

*sigh*(of relief! Finally its the weekend!)
Friday-
I went to the last home game for SHS, it was sweet. i have 2 stories to tell you.
#1- it seems like every time i go to Kiggins(home to SHS), i have tripped on the stairs, last time i fell on my butt and then tripped going up the stairs and THIS time i tripped down, like i went down slowly. it is hard to explain becasuse i did not really fall i just stepped wrong.
`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
#2- There is this Varsity Football player named Trey Foote, he has cancer and about a week ago the doctors said he was fine until this week and said he was not doing well and would not have long to live, he goes around in a wheelchair most of the time. Because of his cancer he can't play football so about 3 games ago they retired his jersey and he was done for the season. But he comes to everygame and sits in his car watching. Its really sweet. Everyone bought these t-shirts at school (including me) that says TREY(in white and navy-dark blueish color background, of the other way around, blue words and white shirt) and it was $12.00, the money went to MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION!!!! so i bought one. :) honestly i have never met trey in person i have only met his sister, Amanda Foote(tee-hee, she has the same name...) she is so nice. She is Proud of her brother and thinks he is a wonderful inspration.
I went to the game with Kendall, KImberly, and Ashley, then met up with Savannah and Sarah, after the game is over everyone runs across the feild to the players who are VARSITY IS UNDEFEATED!!!! GO SHS!!!! N-B-L-C (nothin but lead champions!) after that all players run over to treys car and one by one they shake his hand and people form a line that can go across the whole field to say hi, its sweet. and people were chanting "WE LOVE TREY, WE LOVE TREY!" and it was cool. he will be a legend in SHS for a long long long time!
When KImerly, Kendall and I were walking back to the car this random guy asked
"Hey!, ya'll know Trey?"
"Um no, but we know his sister." said K,K,A(Kimberly,Kendall, Amanda=me lol)
"Well, can you give him this message and say it was from Miko?"
"Yeah sure!" K,K,A
"Please let trey know that i'm praying for him and i hope when he dies he goes to heaven and god will take care of him. I am thinking about him, GOOD Luck. !"
"Aww that is so sweet, we'll tell him that."
That made us all want to cry. There was even a news special about him, it was touching.
Oh yeah, Kendall slept over...we had fun!
````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Today-(Saturday)
Kendall and I slept in till about 10 surprisingly, it felt gooood! then we went to stevens soccer game, then to costco,then home, then to the schools so my dad could run and kendall and i could walk the dogs and play on the playground, came home, were bored for a while, and ate a yummy dinner!

Nonnie,Annie Granny & Papa, Uncle Tim and Susie, stevens friend Kyle and my friend Kendall and mom, dad and steven and me! My mom made her yummy yummy yummy lasagna. and then we had a really yummy choclate cake, OMG its the best, normally i don't like rich choclate but that just hit the spot.
***OMG when we were @ costco they had free samples everywhere, and one of them was Fried Potstickers, those are da'bomb! OMG i have never had a fried on before. i love chicken potstickers. a great place to get them is Henrys Tavern(restruant downtown).*YAWN* i am starting to get tired. its 11:55 PM lol, i still have math homework to do..... sigh, i will do it tomarrow.

tired and felt like sayin hi *(Again)*

I am tired........... and i really don't know why i am on the computer.

I watched Mattea for a bit tonight. I watched "Curious George The Movie" with her. I LOVE THAT MOVIE. its so adorable! and after that we went upstairs and started to watch "Dinosaurs" but she was getting scared so then we decided to put in "Blues Clues Sing Along" so i was on the couch and she crawled up on my lap, and started to fall asleep. Chris said i could leave any time just let him know, so i was like "Ok" and then Mattea started to drift to sleep and i was like i will just wait until she falls asleep to leave because i was tired, so i kinda went to sleep. but then i woke up and they walked me home. I did not turn off my Alarm Clock so i woke up at 5:50!!!!!!!!!!! OMG- that is so not cool when its a weekend... then i got up and turned it off and woke up again at 10:40ish.
(I am kinda going Backwards in the day)
Mattea and I did a lot of Chalk and it was soo cool. We filled up the whole driveway pretty much. it was fun. and we played Hide-n-Seek and yeah just had a lot of fun!

I called Morgan and Maddy today,They all seem to be doing good. It was nice to talk to them. I honestly wonder if they think about me as much as i think about them. i think about them everday and miss them, when i went to texas i did not want to leave because i already felt like i was living at home. its nice to know i have support everywhere from family-to-friends and i met another family that was their neighbors and they are so nice.... almost like a family to me too. okay i am like seriously tired so GOODNIGHT!
Love,
Amanda
