bye-bye

I am disgusted by the ads and weird entertainment that Xanga is promoting on here. From hereon, I'm changing my blog to http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/mhafweet. They have no ads, and people have interesting things to say.

Check out my blog and join my buddy list. I'm actually competing in a contest, "blogging for progress". If you guys read what I write every once in a while, you'll boost my score.

Love you guys... see ya'll on the other side

This has to be one of the funniest pranks I have ever seen:

I am going to be murdered on March 16th, by one of my friends... which one, I do not know.

Tragic, isn't it?

Even more tragic is that my brother will be the one to feed the murderer all the information and materials he/she needs to do the deed.

*grins* This is totally going to be the rockingest birthday-eve party I've ever had.

Life is treating me abso-spiffin awesome. I'm busy like nuts (which is why I haven't updated in forever) but life is really good... amazing.

My family caught a bug-flu thingy this past week, and my 4 year-old brother, Mikey, kept asking everyone to pray for him. It was really cute, and rather profound that he had that faith that Heavenly Father would make him better. Children are a great reminder of what we should be thinking about.... The poor guy was curled up on the kitchen floor, half not-there with nausia and the only thing he would think about was whether or not people would pray for him.

I've gotta run... my escort is walking out (Priacta law... I have to have an escort to my car after dark)...

Love y'all!

ok, HAPPY STUFF!

I'm almost done reading the NT... in Revelation and things are starting to make sense. I need to read D&C before I can finish the OT, or I'm not going to have that done in time for the JSaward at Seminary graduation... I want to have them both done though. I'm running... (just did 2.24 miles last night) prepping for an ~8K in Feb. Plan on weighing pretty for Graduation in May. (still haven't heard back from RRHE about graduation OR membership agknowledgement... golly). Our Stake is having a Scripture Chase in April, which I am way excited about. Haven't decided on whether I want to shoot for the memorization challenge yet, assuming they have one. If I win, everyone will say, 'Oh, of course she won...' but if I lose, everyone will be disapointed with me, including me, becuase everyone knows I can...

I'm dying to talk to Radix people, but I don't know who will still talk to me and who is gonna treat me like the plague... dying to feel like a homeschooler, and not a truant.

Hey, does anyone want to go with me to the Jamestown Celebrations in May? I have a car and money for two tickets...

I feel vaguely... alone. (if the complete lack of comments shows for anything...) My sister runs off and gets married, and my chum and buddy goes off to college on the other side of the continent a couple days later. Brett is leaving for his mission in a week and a half and I won't see him for two years. I can't talk to my best friend about the things that are most important to me because it's painful for him and I haven't seen him in nearly a year.

Trying to get over all that.. but it's almost impossible to convince yourself not to love someone. Try it sometime. Love, real love, just kind of eminates from within you and trying to stop it's flow is like trying to tell your heart to stop beating. So I hide it, because I'm forbidden. (can't convince me it's just because I'm a girl... I'm a mormon girl...) The bottled up... whatever.. just kind of sits there, unfulfilled and eating at me.

I have no social life, outside church (where I am really a leader, not a peer) for a dozen girls all younger than me. I'm working 40 hours a week, chugging two years of high school work on the side, and helping my family remodel the basement too. Other than that, I'm Seminary President, so I have to get up at 5:30 every morning and be on time to greet people... Not getting to bed until close to midnight on average. Other church callings keeping me busy. Yeah... Call me popular.

It's a lot of change in a very short time. I'm just having a hard time keeping up with life as it rushes me along. And despite all the rush, I still feel...empty...somehow. It's just kinda sad that despite all the wonderful people around me, who love me, my heart still aches for a ghost. Trying to break out of moping mode...

I am positively DYING to have an intellectually stimulating conversation. The closest I've had in over two months was yesterday at the Taylors, talking about The Giver. I was able to remember all kinds of things about it after not reading it in four years, and I realized how badly my mind was craving usage.

Subtle, but numerous ironies in this whole mess... It's funny that I see your face everywhere, your laugh, your tilt of the head, your grin... The happiness I haven't seen in you yourself in so long it's killing me. Everyone seems to have a piece of you. I danced with your shadow even... the guy had your name, your lank, energetic movement, your ears. You could have been him 5 years ago.

The sad thing is that the one face I see everywhere is the one I didn't recognize when I finally saw your picture again.

Smiling.

I'm happy though. Life is good, just insaneo busy. I'm planning on running a 5K again really soon. An I'm going rock climbing next week with Brett, who is leaving on a mission the end of this month. I finally got to meet his brother, Jon. And he doesn't really look like Jason. He actually reminds me, at least in mannerisms, more of Nate.

Annii knows everything about me... except for not everything... how sad. =)

My friend is fine, physically at least... like I said... I'm paranoid.

Life right now is like a beautiful dancing-light fall morning with snowflakes in it for me... perfectly amazing . I am so happy. I am loved and opportuned and in tune and watched over and (if I may rejoice in all my blessings) He has even seen it fit to make me pretty and healthy and intelligent. I have the life most people only dream about.... How could I weep? The only bittersweetness will work itself out, perhaps soon, and perhaps later. It doesn't really matter... All is well.

All of you who have been asking for prayers, you have them. Know that God is watching over you and loves you, and that I try too.

How grateful I am for a perfect God.

I HAVE MY LISENCE! They signed it... wow...

I am really paranoid sometimes.

I believe it possible that a friend of mine is seriously ill, but I can't be sure because I don't have any good way to get a hold of him. I have a faulty home number, his cell phone is broken, he's not on IM (like he would be if he were sick) and an e-mail would be really weird... ( 'Hey I'm just checking to make sure you're still alive because last time I talked to you, you were pretty sick and I haven't talked to you since then and I keep dreaming up all sorts of terrible ways that you're dying.' ooooooh.... yeah... wouldn't that be funny...). Besides, if he is really sick, an e-mail to him wouldn't do any good because he wouldn't be there to respond to it.

So, I sent a random e-mail of to a sibling, hoping that if something is wrong I will be thus remembered and notified. And if nothing is wrong I should get a pretty funny reply to e-mail I sent off.
