so after nicks race, we went to arbys and walmart. cara carrying all the food, or at least trying to, was the funniest thing ever. and then we went back to my place to swim. wrestling was brutal. we got me on top of nick, and cara on top of me at one point. which was crazy. and then all of us girls tried taking on one guy at a time. and we couldnt do it. quite a few people left.

me, nicholas, wags, mase, and cara all went out on my roof and watching shooting stars til the sun came up. and then everyone left by 8am. thats the day i realized i had bruises galore from wrestling punks in my pool.

got my results from my ultrasound. not good, i guess? i have cysts. which is causing my pain. so yea, now i have that to worry about.

i love random trips to... sattlers, risingsun, mcdonalds, krogers, great scot, krogers, justins, and fremont. all in one night!!

yesterday... amy and andrew washed nicks truck for him. we look away for 2 seconds. when we look back... andrews got the hose on jet, soaking amy head to toe. and amys defense is to squirt a whole bottle of soap at him. lol the funniest thing ive seen in a while.

and then how about all of us telling andrew about lady in the water and acting like were drowning. and then him freaking out. good stuff.

thats all ive got for now.

dreams are hopeless. aspirations in hopes of comin true. believe in yourself. the rest is up to me and you.

katie

lets start with... a long time ago.

my cat scan... barium sucks. and so does when the lady misses your vein like 3 times.

and then findlay camp. was extremely exhausting. we had like 5 games each day. it was super rediculous. we didnt do too bad. but yea we definitely had our moments.   

first 2 weeks of volleyball conditioning is over!! it was a pain in the butt. nicholas and justin ran with us. they said they were gonna condition for a whole 4 hours. and they lasted 50 minutes. 50 minutes. weak. =)

midnight swim at my dads. that was the best... us 5 just sittin out in the pond, talkin crazy talk. and then we went inside where we found people taking showers together... again. then we make random trips to krogers. hmmm.

next night, party at timzims. "lets just dig holes." best idea eeeeever. and can i just say... we tear shit up. like whoa. and then we drive by the next day, just to make fun of him.

steve mix shootout. nobody wanted to be there. so we didnt play very good. and then me and camille were tryna make it to port clinton from maumee. that was interesting. it took us about 2 hours. we had fun though. and then we jet skiid with the volleyball team. which was absolutely wonderful. who doesnt love skiing up at the lake while the suns going down?      

softball tournaments are over. it was sad to say bye to everybody. good season though. its weird to have my weekends back.

blackswamp, i dont even wanna talk about it.

steve mix, is finally over. i fouled out the one game. and our second, sarah was conning me into tryna foul out the second game too. roger wouldnt let me though. dangit. "who fouls outta steve mix?!" oh and then how bout that dick of a coach. yea, suck it jackass.

tuesday, me and nicholas went to the seneca fair with timmy. we watched some horses run. and apparently my great uncle was one of the people out there. crazy, i know. and we saw ellen, reamer, and chris. which was a good time. so apparently nicholas gets whacked off by his doctor.

thursday, me, nicholas, kayla, and yoni went to frickers for supper. which was delicious. and some guy joined us too. dont remember the name though. and then we went to the fair to see the rodeo. which was very entertaining.

friday, me and nicholas did noooothing all day. then we went to see brittany at caseys house. nicholas's chalk line all the way down the driveway. and walmart. so we now have a fish!! its gorgeous. then we just went back to caseys and talked for ever.

yesterday, did nothing all day. j-app, cara, and brittany came over and we went to the fair to watch nicholas. and he did wonderful.

anooooother update:

i just want to let you know, that i am up this early because i am drinking barrium...

so me, cooper, katy, and adam went up to the lake to go tubing. it was wonderful. we were out on the lake all day. we were completely exhausted and could not move afterwards. the best air = katy flew up, no joke 10 feet, hung there, and then smoked her stomach on the water. it was the funniest thing ever. and adam thinks hes great at water skiing. ha, whatever.

me and nicholas drove all the way down to cincinnati for amys tournament. then we stayed for two nights so we could go to kings island. all the little kidds gave nick a nickname. it was muy chaostico. ummm yea we rode the rides for a day. which were brutal. but yet fun. and the water rides were sweeeeet. nicholas drove MY CAR all the way home. i was so nervous.

so then that day was 4th of july. which was great. because me and nicholas got sparklers!! yesssah. went to bettsville. we seen quite a few people. but apparently we missed most of them? like rachal... man i wish i woulda seen her.

i took tim to get her hair cut. wow, its short now for all of you who havent seen it. it looks great though.

shell shuckers with nicks friends. lol umm... interesting. its like our friends, in 10 years. they talk about the same stuff that we do, do the same stuff we do... just with legal drinking.

fire at adams house. fun fun fun. and nathans phone calls were pretty funny. and how about going to kyles house. and almost getting killed by his neighbors. wow.

hopewell volleyball tournament. went really good. it feels great to beat girls that have been kicking our ass all these years.

and fostoria league. well, first game was shaky. we went to jessies to swim. it was fun. especially the part when the dog tried to catch a fish. and then back to fostoria to kill upper sandusky. whoop whoop.

basketball. havent been to morning practices. but steve mix went pretty good. we beat genoa. which is sweet. but coach... whoa, hes making me mad. and then on the way home, me and chelsea are stopped at a train. and chelsea screams that theres something in the woods beside me. so i start freaking out and hyperventilate!! and chelsea finds that the funniest thing ever.

'optional' volleyball conditioning started this week. and by 'optional', they mean... if you wanna play, you better come. so lets see: running, arms, calves, bleacher runs, abs, pushups, jump ups, freaking blocks, killers on the football field, bear crawls, crab walks, ladders, boxes, and red shirt drill. yea steve... i better "look good in that homecoming dress." i seriously wanna kill myself sometimes doing all this. and we have a month of it!! the boys dont even do this much shit for football. rediculous.

i love heart to heart conversations with my dad.

so my physical yesterday... went fine. until my mom mentioned my not being able to walk incident at elmwood. apparently i have to get a catscan on my abdomen this morning. which requires me to drink to huge things of barrium, and a freaking iv. and then next friday, i have to get an ultrasound on my pelvis. grrrr. thanks mom. so yea... as i type this, im drinking theee biggest glass of barrium i have ever seen.

dreams are hopeless. aspirations in hopes of comin true. believe in yourself. the rest is up to me and you.
