Kat..

     Hi guys.  I'm currently sitting in Kat's room using her charger to charge Paco.  Because now all I do is play Bing games at school....but today I even wrote Sam a note!!  So....I'm amazed that my battery has still gone down to like 14!!  Anyways.....Kat disappeared.  About 30 minutes ago, we were sitting in her kitchen eating. :)  Of course we were eating....haha.  OREOS!!!!  Well, I was eating oreos....she was eating pizza stuff.  Anyways, we were sitting there and her mom called.  She disappeared into the side of the house where her parents' room is.  She didn't come back.  I went to her room and moved all my stuff off her bed and changed into my volleyball stuff.  She still isn't back.  Haha.  On Tuesday, she forgot I was here, too.  I figure she's got forgetful problems.  Hahaha.  Anyways, now I'm sitting here blogging and playing Flowerz on Bing (of course..).  I'm jammin to Justin Bieber's Baby.  Don't judge me.  Actually, I'm going through my list of Top Played....this happens to be on it.  I'm about to listen to I'll Make a Man Out of You 12 zillion times, now and get pumped for tryouts!!  :)


P.S. Cam, good luck.  Haha.  I wish I could be there to watch you beat my own school!!  Geez.  Yall should be starting right now....so I hope you win.  I guess.. :)

Let's Get Down to Business!!

     Sooo....I'll Make a Man Out of You is our motivational theme song for volleyball tryouts.  It is pretty much the best song ever.  Anyways, we have tryouts again tonight.  We are doing circuit AGAIN tonight.  At the very beginning.  Then we actually get to play volleyball!!  After we want to go crawl in a hole and die because of circuit.  Anyways, then he said we'll probably go through circuit AGAIN at the very end.  Geez.  Sometimes, I think Coach Jordan is trying to kill us.  Haha.  
     I'm trying to keep telling myself that volleyball is not important.  Like, it really isn't.  Or well, it SHOULDN'T be.  At the moment, I'm attempting to remember my priorities.  I shouldn't be worried about volleyball tryouts right now for 3 reasons....
1. They are tonight, not right now....so there's no use worrying about it NOW.
2. The Bible says "Don't worry about anything, instead, pray about everything.  Tell God what you need and thank Him for all He has done."
3. Even if I don't make the volleyball team this year, it isn't REALLY that important.  Volleyball has absolutely NO eternal significance.  THAT is what really matters.  
     So, my goal for today....NOT worry....PRAY about it if I start to worry....try to ENCOURAGE other people....and show people God's love at school.  That's my life.

Hi guys :)

     Hi guys.  They blocked our blogs on our Macs.  Stupid.  For real.  Anyways, they didn't block blogger.com....so, we can still POST....we just can't look at our own blogs.  Ha.  Anyways, I was going to post about volleyball tryouts, but I JUST realized like 10 minutes ago that I can still make new posts.  Though, yall probably won't read them much anymore since the new blockage.  Cam will most likely still read my blog though.  Haha.  And Mal, if you can see this, hey :)  I love you!!!!  I get to see you (and Fizz and Zozz) AGAIN tomorrow night!!  Excitement....
     I'm in geometry.  Just chillin.  Haha, 60% days are my FAVORITE.  For real, kids.  I love them.  Though, I need to study kind of a lot of stuff tonight, and I kind of (meaning for real) have a lot of homework and stuff to do this afternoon.  BUT, I'll get home at 12, so it SHOULD be okay.  And then....YOUTH TONIGHT!!!!!  More excitement....  :)  And now....bing games....that AREN'T blocked....yet.  Haha, even MORE excitement....  :)  Bye guys..

SIFAT Part II

     I know I said I was going to post again YESTERDAY about SIFAT and it's amazingness....but oh well.  I'm writing about it now instead.  People who DON'T know what SIFAT is probably think I'm crazy counting down the days to some "fat camp".  Well, that is false.  SIFAT is NOT a fat camp.  It is an acronym.  It stands for Servants In Faith And Technology.  It is an incredible place.  It is my favorite place in the world.  I can't even describe it.  My big brother is on the staff there.  My older sister was a counselor for the Learn and Serve summer camp last year.  I've been to Learn and Serve for 3 summers in a row.  This coming summer will be my fourth.  I love it.  SIFAT is a mission-based camp where international students and people can come and stay on campus to learn.  They learn appropriate technologies to go home and teach their communities.  They learn super incredible things like how to purify water and how to grow different plants that are okay to eat based on the resources available to them.  SIFAT has different mission teams that go overseas and do all kinds of amazing things.  My brother went to Bolivia for 3 months about 3 years ago.  He drilled wells, so that people could access clean water.  My dad took our church's youth group (I was too young to go at the time.) to Ecuador for a week, and they worked at VBS. SIFAT is a pretty amazing place.  It changes me every time I go.  People in a America take things for granted.  I know I do.  Going to SIFAT makes me rethink life.  EVERY time I go.  It is incredible.  I keep using that word, incredible....but it really is.  I can't think of any other words to describe it.  SIFAT Learn and Serve camp teaches you about other countries and the need around the world.  You learn how other people live.  You learn how God works in awesome and amazing, unbelievable ways.  It is a cool thing.  I love SIFAT.  I've done a TERRIBLE job at trying to explain it to yall.  Feel free to go to sifat.org if you'd like to see for yourself.  And if you HAVE been to SIFAT before (Fizz, Zozz, Cam, and Emily) feel free to comment and attempt to explain is better than I attempted. :)

Letters....

Dear ACT,
    I hate you.  And I did progressively worse as I sat in the stupid desk longer.  I totally failed.  Just letting you know.
Love,
     One of many people who epically killed your test this morning


Dear random people who cuss,
     I don't understand you.  Why??  Just wondering....
Love,
     Kennedy


Dear girl who was sitting diagonal to me in the ACT this morning CHOMPING ON MINTS THE WHOLE TIME,
     Please learn to NOT chomp on your green peppermints.  It is incredibly distracting and awfully annoying.  I definitely didn't read like 3 questions before marking a random letter on the Reading section thanks to you.  You DID, however, remind me that I'm supposed to love everyone.  Even you if you were chomping like crazy in the middle of the biggest test of my high school career.  So, thanks for that, I guess.
Love, 
     The quiet girl who wanted to punch your teeth out this morning :)


Dear Zozzy,
     I love you!!  I miss you.  Movie party soon??  PLEASE.  We also need to give life updates VERY soon.  For sure.  Love you.  Text me.  :)
Love,
     Your best friend that misses you terribly


Dear Fizzle,
     You're kind of my favorite.  I went Easter dress shopping today with my mommy and I thought of you.  Especially when we walked by Claire's and some little baby was getting her ears pierced!!  Haha. Thanks for your blog post.  Lovely.  Love you!!
Love,
     Ken (aka: Fizz-a-holic)


Dear Cam,
     Sorry I suck at tennis.  And I'm sorry that I'm leaving you to sit on the couch with Jan and watch country music videos on TV while I write this blog post.  Also, sorry I'm in a really bad mood.  It is been a LONG day.  For both of us.  
Love,
     Kenn (aka: wimpy girlfriend)


Dear Dress Shopping with Jan,
     I used to like you.  But after testing for 5 hours, then walking around dress shopping with my mother for the next SIX HOURS....yeah, I'm not much of a fan of you anymore.  That's all.  Goodbye.
Love,
     An extremely tired, wimpy little girl


That's all of my letters for now.....

Friday's Poptart Fail.

     Today on the way to school, I was nicely eating my cinnamon poptart with a fork on my little plastic orange plate.  Well, normally, when we get to the Pearman's house to pick up the boys, I'm finished with my poptarts, so I open the door and dump the poptart crumbs sitting on the plate out on the ground.  Well, I wasn't done with my poptarts when we got to their house today.  Not a big deal, right?  So, when I finally finished, we were driving down the road in Pontotoc.  Well, I rolled the window down to dump the crumbs out....and instead of going on the ground, they blew all over me.  There was poptart all over me.  It was in my hair!!  Haha, geez.  Then Mama was like, "I thought that might happen."  I looked at her....I was like, "Thanks mom."  Anyways, it was really funny.  It was quite sad though.  I felt really stupid.  The boys in the back seat asked what it was.  Jan told them it was my poptart crumbs.  Apparently, it blew back on them, too.  Ha.  Anyways, that's my lovely Poptart fail of today.  :)

Jerkfaces.

     I'm sitting in advisory right now.  I just got back from lunch.  I'm trying to figure out how the crap I'm supposed to love everyone in the freaking world.  A while back, I posted a lot about how hard it is to love people, but how we're supposed to anyways.  Jesus loved everyone he met.  God loves everyone now.  I was sitting at lunch, updating Emily on all the small town drama of Pontotoc....when I got hit in the head with food.  Real life??  Yes.  I don't even know what it was.  It hit the right side of my hair and flung off when I immediately grabbed the spot where the unknown substance hit.  After that, I stopped talking, and attempted to let it go and not think about it.  That was kind of impossible since the group of people who threw it were constantly looking back at me and laughing.  Then someone from behind me threw food back at the group who originally hit me.  It was awful.  I was not happy, obviously.  Who would be in a good mood after being hit in the head with food, then having 12 zillion people in the cafeteria turn and laugh at you??  Yeah.  My life.  I was extremely mad and distraught.  I simply don't understand why people feel the need to be stupid, idiotic jerks and throw food in the first place.  It is wasteful.  I'd love to see those people go to another country and see the people dying because they don't have anything to eat....when they are just throwing their perfectly good food around the cafeteria.  Anyways, I was really mad and I looked down and tried not to cry.  I'm a wimp.  But I wasn't about to cry because I was upset.  I was about to cry because I was mad.  Now, my point in this long post....
     When I walked in advisory, I wanted to go punch those jerks in the face.  I'm a tad calmed down now....but still not at all happy.  That kind of just ruined my day.  Kind of.  My question is....how am I supposed to love the awful, idiot, jerkface that just threw food across the cafeteria and hit me in the head??  Honestly, I still want to go punch whoever it was in the face.  I don't understand why I have to love those kinds of people.  I don't want to.  Not at all.  
     I'm so frustrated.  With myself because I am being so dramatic and wimpy.  And because I'm refusing to love someone that I don't even know.  That is completely ridiculous.  Even if they did hit me with food.  God calls us to love EVERYONE.  I'm trying.  I'm trying really hard to find a reason to love that kid.  I'm working on the whole forgiveness thing as well.  
     It is so hard to forgive people sometimes.  People you don't know (that hit you with food).   People that hurt you so deeply.  People that are just mean all the time.  It is so hard to love them, too, even after you forgive them.  I just came up with the reason we're supposed to love those people....because Jesus did.  So, if Jesus could forgive all those people who rejected him....I can forgive the kid who messed up my hair in the cafeteria.  If Jesus can love ME, after all the stuff I've done to him, I can love that kid who I wanted to go punch a little while ago.
     Now, I'm sorry I just bored you with this long post and terrible story.  That was my process of trying to forgive and love.  I knew that it'd take a lot of writing for me to actually not be mad again.  I thought I'd just post it on my blog anyways.  And I'm not mad at the unknown person who likes to make scenes at lunch anymore.  I don't know that person's story.  I don't know anything about them.  So, I guess the only way I can love them is to pray for them and let it go.  My life..

Disney Princesses!! :)

     So....I'm a kid.  I enjoy watching Disney channel.  I run around outside barefoot when it's warm.  It's great.  I like to take those gummy Winnie the Pooh vitamins!!  I LOOOVE watching Disney movies.  I also like watching the incredibly cheesy Disney channel movies that come on each night.  I like to dress up and put on make up and feel much older than I really am.   I like to play board games.  I like to swim with fish floaty tube things.  Skipping is one of my favorite things.  Ever.  I cry a lot.  I like hugs.  I need to be reminded to do simple tasks everyday.  Chocolate milk is my favorite drink in the world.  I like eating donuts with sprinkles on top!! Sooo pretty!!  Winnie the Pooh is the coolest bear EVER.  I like watching old cartoons randomly on Saturday mornings or when I don't go to school.  They make me happy.  I sleep with my lovely stuffed elephant named Ele every night.  I sleep with my pillow/ frog named Todo every night.  I like to wrap up in blankets and drink hot chocolate with lots of whipped cream on top.  I like to go crazy with paint and canvases.  I just use random colors and end up with something totally insane.  Its fantastic.  My big brother and sisters are my heroes.  I have a fear of being kidnapped.  I like to use swirly straws to drink stuff.  I like to use straws in general.  I sometimes go back and read the Little House series when I get bored.  I LOOOVE exploring those play places at fast food places!!  I make messes.  Especially when I eat.  I like to jump on trampolines.  They are sooo fun.  I like to wear bows in my hair!!  I like to go to 3D movies (that are good).  The IMAX amazes me.  I am afraid of the dark.  I am afraid of heights.  I like acting like a spy.  I feel so cool.  I am scared of sharks.  I like going shopping with my mommy for Easter dresses.  Loud thunder that shakes the whole house terrifies me.  I like to be in pictures!!  I like to eat popsicles!!  Yumm yumm!!  I like to build forts out of blankets and chairs and then sleep in them!!  I get homesick crazy easily.  That's one reason why I hate volleyball camp so much.  My mommy is still one of my best friends.  I haven't done that in a while though....hmmm....I like to lay in the hammock and look at stars.  I annoy my big sisters.  I like to lay in the grass and watch the clouds.  I enjoy bike rides.  I like going to the library.  I like to go on walks.  I fantasize about my wedding.  I want to meet Prince Charming.  Ariel is my favorite Disney princess.  Ever.  For real.  I love her hair!!  She is so pretty for a cartoon!!  (Don't judge me, kid.)  I ALSO freaking LOOOVE Mulan.  Technically, no, she isn't a princess, but according to Disney, she is one.  Soo, those are my two favorite Disney princesses (and characters at all) in the history of anything that matters.  And yes, Mulan and The Little Mermaid are my two favorite Disney movies of all time.  The Aristocats is also a good one.  I like being a kid.  It is fun.  Cameron makes me feel like a kid a lot.  Fizzy makes me feel like a kid.  Zozzy really makes me feel like a kid.  Camden even makes me feel like a kid sometimes.  If you've decided you're going to be all grown up, you should try being a kid.  It is fun.  For real.  :)  And....that's my life.

Ariel!!  Love her!!

Pretty wedding dress!!

CHOCOLATE MILK!!!!  :)

This movie is SOO cheesy.  And fantastic.

Oh Winnie the Pooh....

Dress up is fun!!

Just some Little House books....no big deal....

My life..

TEVAS!!!!

     Tevas are cool.  I like Tevas.  I am wearing my Tevas today.  I want more Tevas.  I think I'm going to save some money and buy some.  I will have more than enough money by the start of summer if I start saving now.  I like Tevas a lot.  I found some purple Tevas that I'm kind of in love with.  Tevas are my cool thing of the day.  I'd also like another pair of Chacos, but they cost a lot more.  And I have a perfectly good pair now.  My Tevas are kind of worn out though.  I enjoy Tevas.  And sandal weather.  And summer.  Here are my lovely Teva pictures.....

In love....

Oh, and it's Wednesday!!!!  Excitement.....

Cool Thing About Tuesday.

     First off, my life is awkward.  Some girl in first period just tried to tell me something.  Then she turned around to another girl and said "She didn't get it."  That was awkward.  Geez.  My life.  Okay, so now for my cool thing....
     BUTTERFLIES DON'T HAVE LUNGS!!!!  Geez.  And now for the lovely picture to go with my cool fact. :)

YAY BUTTERFLIES!!!!  :)

My Awkward Life..

     So I hate when you tell your sister something, then she randomly and unexpectedly has lunch with your mom in Starkville because she had to work there today and I wasn't aware, and then that sister totally tells your mom the very important and somewhat secretive thing that you told her expecting her not to tell anyone.  Oh, and I also hate it when the sister who told your mom, tells her twin sister the thing that you told her, and then the twin that you DIDN'T tell gets all distraught that you didn't tell her, too.  So, now my mom knows my life, and my other sister is "hurt."  Ha.  My life is awkward now.  Just updating yall.

The Cyclops

     So, this morning in English, we were reading about the story of the cyclops in The Odyssey.  I'm not a fan of all the mythology crap, but I learned something interesting today.  The ancient Greeks or whoever they are in that time, were supposed to treat strangers like guests.  When a random person came and knocked on their door, they were supposed to invite them in and be kind, as if the people were gods in disguise.  Now, I don't believe in "gods in disguise"....but I think their beliefs and actions SHOULD be similar to our own in this case.  "Whatever you do to the least of these, you do to me."  Sound familiar??  Yeah, Jesus said that if you weren't aware.  So, just like the Greeks did for strangers and their gods....we are supposed to do that to EVERYONE.  We are supposed to treat them ALL as if they are Jesus.  That is hard.  Very hard.  But it is something to think about....so yeah.  :)

Ahhh!!!!

     Hi guys.  :)  Again.  I suddenly remember that today is April 1st.  You know what that means??  (Well, technically, it is April Fool's Day....but that's not where I was going with that question.  Anyways....)  I'll be 16 in EXACTLY 3 months!!!!  That is exciting.  And scary.  All at the same time.  It ALSO means that summer in in less than 2 months!!  That's freaking awesome!!  
     Another thing, please please please go vote on all my polls.  I have 3 now.  :)  And I have a new knowledge of adding "gadgets" to my blog design, so my blog might be going through some structural changes in the future.  I enjoy being able to control my blog.  Haha.  I'm trying to come up with something important or inspirational to say now.  It isn't working very well.  So, I'll just share my Mother Teresa quote from Wednesday.  "It isn't about how much you do, but how much love into the small things you do."  That wasn't the exact quote, but that is the gist of it.  I like it.  I, personally, love Mother Teresa.  She is my favorite.  What do you think??

It is FRIDAY!!!!

     Hi guys. :)  Guess what!!!!  It is FRIDAY!!!!!!!!  I'm super excited.  And overly pumped.  Haha.  I get to see my best friends tonight!!  Ahhhh!!!!!  I just have to get through the next 6 periods of school....then....FIZZ, ZOZZ, and KAT!!!!  Yeahhhh!!!!  
     Sorry, I'm a tad excited at the moment.  Now, for today's cool thing....let me think.  I must come up with a really REALLY cool one, since yesterday's was kind of late.  Hmmm.....


Okay, I have a list....here we go....
