Costume Catastrophe!!!!

HELP!!!!! So you know how i was gonna be little red for Halloween? So my mom said she had a red cape that would be perfect and look great! But guess what?! Now she said that she can't find it and that I'm gonna have to be something else!!! I'm freaking out! So now I'm going back to my original plan to make a red cape. It should be fine because capes don't look too hard to make. but considering that I have only a mere, lets see..., ONE DAY TO MAKE! I'm going to have to work so freaking hard! EEEEEEEEEEEEEP!

Also we have our game against Taber tonight! we lost to LCI! DARN! but anyway... wish us luck! Go Pandas :)

My friend, Katie, is making a blog! I'm helping her set it up right after this blog post!

More to come later! Kate, out!

HALLOWEEN IS COMING!

HALLOWEEN IS ALMOST HERE!!!! I'm totally excited! if you haven't noticed :)

So today was Renzo's funeral and it was really sad. I held out until the end and then cried next to my sister, Kim, and other sister, Lindsay. THEY BOUGHT A PUPPY! I'm so happy now! I barely get to see her but that's okay... she's still real cute.

Ooh so before I forget I've been noticing my habits more! When I'm sad and depressed I bake! or cook. So the other day when I was down in the dumps, I baked sugar cookies! yummy! I think my parents enjoy it when I'm depressed. not in that way! but they like the goodies that I make! and they DO taste pretty fantastic! My banana muffins are to DIE for! :)



So after Kim and Lindsay left I went to Young Women's instead of Volleyball... which, yes, I know is very bad on my part, but I haven't gone since the begginning of summer. I thought we were doing YW in Excellence prep but instead we made Halloween sign thingys! At first I was like... ooh a craft. fun... nawt!... but the signs turned out really cute and homey. We painted plain ole wood whatever color suited Halloween and then we stencilled on little sayings just had fun and ate some treats! Ooh we stained the sides and the back, and let me tell you... that stuff is NASTY! It stinks and when you try to wash it off, it turns sticky and won't come off. It looks like I tanned from my knuckle to my fingertips in only a matter of minutes! ugh... but I had a lot of fun hanging out with the girls!



Ooh ooh guess what?! I'm going to be Little Red Riding Hood this year for Halloween! I'm so excited because I have this cape, that I need to find, that looks fabulous! I'm going to curl my hair then volumptumize it :) I'm gonna look so cute! I like funny costumes but guys tend to dance with girls that look cuter! Like what guy wants to dance with a ninja? You can't see their face! (i was a ninja last year BTW!) I was originally going to make a red cape from scratch but I needed fabric and Halloween is only 6 days away!! EEP! ooh but our dance is on the 29! so I really need to find that cape!

I can't wait for the dance! I really hope I get asked to dance! I don't wanna be one of those girls who stand by the side all night and wait! nope no sirree!! I'mma look really cute and get asked! wish me luck! ;)

------------Thursday- my favorite tv show night :)... School (ergh), pick up lil sis from kindergarten, do homework/reading, go to volleyball practice (2 hours), come home, eat, shower, do whatever easy chores my madre needs done, watch Charlie's Angels, Grey's Anatomy, and Private Practice! Ooh I love me some doctor shows!, then go to bed...
------------Friday- school, go home, hang with friends (maybe), slack off until dinner, eat, watch Sanctuary, blog or journal write, go on facebook and twitter, sleep.

------------Sunday- Sacrament meeting, Sunday School, Young Womens, family dinner, chatting politely with the family, home teachers/visitors, eat some leftoers, quality family time, sleep

Pretty lamesauce eh?

Omygoodness!!! So I was super tired but couldn't sleep so I thought "hey why don't I drink warm milk?" apparently it's super great in helping you fall asleep. I don't like plain warmed up milk so I added sugar and cinnimon (cinnimmon?) it tasted SUPER good! Ever had Cinnimon Toast Crunch? it tastes like the leftover milk from a bowl of that scrum-diddily-umptious cereal! Just thought I would share that random tidbit of awesome for today!

Ooh and for volleyball this week, I have 2 games!!! one against LCI on wednesday and another in Taber on Thursday! Our game last week was postponed due to, uh, recent events happening in the community.

Signing off with a tired body and brain.
My life in a nutshell...

Talk about your hard weeks... :(

Ever had those weeks where you feel as if you are getting nowhere? Welcome. to. my. life. I don't have a problematic boyfriend, difficult university classes or a lot of stress like many people I know. I just have a lot of "stuff" going on in my life that sucks... and what do you do when you need to get something off your chest?... you blog. For my sister this is very therapeutic (theraputic? can't spell) apparently. psh. whatever.

So this week has been especially hard on our little town of Magrath. 4 teens from my school were killed. They were reported missing early sunday morning (oct 16) around 2 ish and weren't found until 5:45 . apparently they hit a guardrail next to Pothole creek and rolled. They were partially submerged in the water and it's just horrible to think about.

My friends Danae Gough, Jorden Miller, Clay Card and Renzo Dainard. They died on impact so I know that they weren't suffereing. Go with God, my friends.

School has been UBER tough! Teachers have been giving us total slack all week because everybody in the school are emotional wrecks. Yes, including me. Monday I cried straight through the whole day. So did everyone else. Tuesday was getting better but still plenty of crying. Wednesday, things were really calming down. Barely any crying, people holding themselves together... Then Thursday was Clay's funeral. The tears and emotions were out again and it was like starting over again on Friday. Saturday was both Danae and Jorden's funerals. How did I do throughout the day? blubbered like a baby. but I have no shame in crying... according to my seester it helps with stress and beauty(?). Honestly I have no idea.

So not only has it been 1 week since the accident but now we figure out that in Grande Prairie, a city 12 hours north of Magrath, has had a tragedy as well. 4 teenagers died tonight in a head on collision. 1 is deeply injured in the hospital. Alcohol and speed were a HEE- UUGGGEE factor in this. In fact, the idiot who crashed into them fled from the scene but was caught by the PO-PO!!! psh genius.

Please bear with me as I try to learn the art of blogging :)
