So I started school yesterday... I already have homework and next week I have two quizzes and a test in the same class! This means I will be working on studying etc. and I will not be able to update as often as everyone would like but I will try to update as often as I can and I'll try to keep you up to date with what is happening in my life. Fridays I won't be on at all for the next few months, as I have to go to the football games because I'm in the marching band (I play flute)

So I hope you all enjoy the content that is up so far and I hope you will comment here and tell me what you want me to focus on to get up. (I can't focus on lots at once so comment and tell me one or two things please and thanks)

So I finally got around to making a new layout to match my myspace theme and I finally coded it and put it up! I think it looks gawgeous! Leave me a comment and tell me what you think! I have a new section called Donate, it is so you, the lovely people who view my site can help me keep the site going and motivate me to produce more stuff more often. Soon to come I will have a Request open for website layouts, both coded and uncoded, and perhaps custom myspace layouts or site makeovers (tell me what you think I should have!) I will however charge for these, only a few dollars which isn't that much, tell me how much you think I should charge (I will be offering premade website layouts for those who cannot pay for ones) also I should have my premade signs up soon, that is if my photobucket stops being dumb and works faster :D

So now on to My Life...on the 19th, my friend Ida and I went canoeing with my family. It was not to shabby to start with, we were amazing! We were in front of my mom and sister in one canoe and my dad in another. We were even able to stand up and canoe a bit just to be cool! Then when we all stopped to take a break and see just how far we were going things took a turn for the worse.

We got back out and we were doing just ok, and then we spotted something, Ida was like "is that a ball?" there was a fisherman-guy nearby as well, we got closer to the 'ball' and realized it was a tree branch thing and we would need to avoid it, which didn't work out so well as one end of the canoe went one way and the other went well the other way and we ended up hitting the branch thing sideways and tipping the canoe and we both fell out!

Later on down the river we became entangled in not the first tree we had passed under, however this one had larger thicker branches hanging down and we got like raped by the tree, we ended up getting loose but we shook the tree in the process and bugs in the branches fell down into our canoe so of course we were freaking out when there was a bug nearby. One incident didn't end to well for the poor spider who happened to be spotted by both me and Ida and ran to the middle of our canoe where Ida and I beat at the spider with our paddles paying no attention to the river as getting rid of the spider was more important to us!

// Edit //
Then later on down the river, I was leaning back at a slow spot when my (now broken ) sunglasses fell off my head. Everything was in total slow motion I swear lol. I grabbed for my sunglasses but they were just out of my reach, so of course I dive off the back of the canoe, in what I thought was rather deep (2-4 feet) of water but was in actuality not deep at all (1-2 feet) so I scraped my foot, but I saved my sunglasses and they were not injured. (They were broken yesterday [7/28/08] at band camp lol)
//End of Edit //

During the 6 hour, 12 mile canoe trip we got stuck probably at least 20 times, we hit more rocks sticking out of the water than IN the water, and got sunburn on our backs, shoulders, arms, chest and the top of our thighs, but we had fun! When we got home we both slept for about 3 or 4 hours as we were worn out from the canoeing plus we had went to bed at about 4 am and gotten up at about 7 or 8.


Well that's all for now, Leave me a comment and if you leave your myspace or website url or your email along with it I will reply to you!

So my summer has been going Ok I guess. It's been really boring to say the least though. I've left my house about 5 or 6 times.

Two days were of driving with my Instructor for driving school. 2 hours of driving...extremely boring, especially when your instructor insists that you are a terrorist because you do not like mashed potatoes, or crispy bacon. And when your instructor says hitting people or animals is bad, except if you hit a dog, he called it bonus points. I did not hit a dog. I like dogs...usually haha! I did get a "3" in 'Burnouts' on the last day however...We get graded a 1, 2, or 3, 3 being the best, on different aspects, such as parking, one way streets, attitude, breaking, turning, etc. Burnouts is not actually on the paper, but my instructor wrote it in and wrote a 3. So I've passed driving school. All I need to do is schedule my test and take it, so I can get my license. It's been way to long already, I'm on my second permit because the old one expired (it expires after a year) and I hadn't finished driving school yet.

So I've also left my house to go to my cousins 1^st birthday which was of course boring as most family parties for 1 year-olds are. I was soaked when I got there too. My mom and I went into Dollar General to pick up a couple more things and my mom parked in like the opposite side of the parking lot, of course. And we had the windows all the way down because it was really hot out. We go in to the store and everything's fine of course but then as we're checking out...it starts to pour. Not just a heavy rain but a rain that would mean stepping out for 2 seconds would drench you, and of course my mom had me run out to the car with the 2 bags, thankfully little was purchased. I had to run through the rain to the car. I got in it and rolled up the windows and pulled it closer to the store but I couldn't see well enough to move it to the front of the store. But then the rain eased a bit and my mom came to the car with about 4 or 5 spots of water on her shirt and that was it, while I was sitting there completely Soaked! How fair is that?

My favorite time leaving the house was when I went to a concert with my boyfriend. We went to an Iron Maiden concert with his parents, it was like a fathers day gift to his dad? well it was in Akron and we live in Mount Vernon so it was a looonnnggg drive, which was fun. On the way home Brandon and I were in the back seat again, of course lol, and I was laying down with my head in his lap. He was starving, he hadn't eaten all day, since maybe breakfast, I could hear his stomach like eating him so we went to McDonald's and his mom almost hit McDonald's only not really but it's a fun story. Plus there were many close accidents on the road too, mostly due to everyone else. Such as a car wanting to get into an exit while in the far left lane of a 3 lane highway...they were at like a COMPLETE STOP, and then Turned right in front of us! Geez!

So yea that's been my summer so far, and It's been my summer since May 31^st! I have done like nothing haha. I've spent most of my time working on my myspace and this amazing site! So leave me loads of comments, the more comments I get the more stuff I add and the Sooner I add it all!
