Lazy Summer Dayz

C.O.W.

EFY... I can't even begin to do a post on how wonderful it was. From the very first day everybody in my company was best friends and essentially had everyones names down. "C.O.W.'s" (crush-of-the-week) are definitely a bigger deal when you're 14-15 and can't date anyone.
But everyone in my company just wanted to be great friends! The boys were chivalrous gentlemen and the girls didn't mind being complete crazies while at the same time being so sweet and understanding... (which is saying something because girls generally bug the crap outta me!) I drew closer to my Savior --even without the efy medley, although it would have greatly helped me to feel the Spirit-- and I learned some cool new ways to look at things we do in the church. I got less than 24 hours of sleep throughout the whole week when I probably should have had at least 50 hours... Needless to say, I was exhausted and have become a napping maniac! I didn't wake up until lunch time today! ...And yesterday. ...And the day before (but I had only woken up because I set my alarm so that I wouldn't sleep through 1pm church!)

Today I participated in a "Star Wars" marathon!! Which was fun! I know, call me geeky, but the newer movies are awesome! And the grownup Anakin, holy cow, so much attractiveness going on.  Ahem, anyway.... Although I am checking off some things on my Summer to do list, I really should be a bit more productive... Like read a good book for example.

Someday I really will fulfill my perfect Summer though. I really want to someday spend at least part of my Summer in Paris. Ride my old fashioned bicycle through town, buy some awesome loaves of baguettes -- just because I can, take walks down the streets as the sun goes down and the city lights turn on, listen to beautiful local music, obviously see all of the touristy sights, be able to see the eiffel tower/the city of love from my window, cafés, meet an attractive somebody and, and and--


--my dreams carry me away though. I just need to be happy with where I am and who I'm with. (:

So that's all for now I suppose.  OH JUST KIDDING:

That's from the movie "We Bought A Zoo" ...And I feel like i've been living by this quote lately. It makes the ride of life a little bit more worthwhile! (: Okay. I'm done now. 

lab rats

sometimes i feel like the older siblings were the experiment rats and got away with everything, but by the time my parental units work their way down to the younger set of kids, they've "perfected" their ways. (e.g. my step dad just told me that i'd be lucky to get my first phone when i'm 30 whereas my older sister got hers when she was half that age.)

it's not only the phone thing that's an issue... sometimes i feel like i have no freedom whereas for my friends its like they have immediate rights.

*siiiiiiiiigh*

on other notes, i've kicked off my awesome summer by sitting in my room all day making friendship bracelets as if i were having a flashback from age 12, and as if i had people to give them to... but lets face it, if i had a plethora of friends i'd be out with them instead of in my room.
