This is probably going to seem really boring to all of you... I just want to remember it. No pressure to read the whole thing.
Howdy folks. Sorry it's been a while since I last blogged, things have been super duper crazy around here lately. I just started packing stuff recently, and it seems like I haven't been home very much as of late. Mostly due to the fact that I've gone on 2 dates in the past week! Plus it was Spencer Giddens bday on the 23, and I was at his house pretty much all day playing basketball and riding scooters and playing on the Wii with a bunch of our church friends.
My date. Dates actually. One official and one... not so official. With Colin Henderson. First, a few friends of his went over to his house to party it up, and while we were both hiding in the woods during a rousing game of Sheep and Wolf (yes i know, my friends are awesome :D) he asked me to double with him. I said yes of course, because I've kinda had a slight crush on this boy since I was like 10 years old. We went to Crackerbarrel with 2 of our friends and then watched a movie. It was pretty fun, but the people we doubled with were kind of lame- one didn't eat anything at the restaurant and the other was pretty much asleep the whole time. The car ride home was the best part because they weren't there and Colin is one of the funniest people I've ever met. :)
Date number 2: Not really an official date, but definitely more fun than the first. Colin invited me to his house to go shootin'. It was so much fun!!! We shot 3 different kinds of guns. I don't remember what any of them were called, though. We played that game where someone throws the little skeet things and we had to shoot them. I ACTUALLY SHOT ONE!!! It was pretty far away, and I just pulled the trigger and hoped for the best. (Pretty much what I did every time.) That sucker shattered into a billion pieces. After that me and Colin walked around on the property with the smallest gun looking for squirrels, but we couldn't find any because the best time to find squirrels is in the morning. Then he had a brilliant idea: to go mountain biking all over his dirt bike trails. It sounded fun and pretty easy so I said ok. WORST IDEA EVER. It wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't fallen off my bike so much. I completely wiped out, as in, was laying on my side on the ground, a total of 5 times. It was so embarrassing, because he kind of tripped like maybe once. The most embarrassing fall was when I drove into an invisible hole, fell sideways off my bike, and hit the bottom of my left ribs on a REALLY hard stump, or root. It knocked the wind right out of me, and when he came to ask me if I was okay, all I could do was make that weird robot groaning sound that you make when you lose your wind. And he was trying really hard not to laugh. He succeded for the most part.
After that, we went inside and decided to go play Frisbee Golf at Fort Yargo. He won by one point. We were both pretty bad, but it was super fun, and we only broke one frisbee. :)
THEN we went back to his house and he taught me how to play Halo. That is a fun game, and it really wasn't that hard either.
And that's all. Now that I think about it, I can't believe Colin still likes me after all that making a fool of myself. Today he invited me to come play paintball with his family, but I couldn't go because I was packing. :/ BUT HE JUST CALLED AND ASKED IF I WANTED TO COME AND PLAY GAMES AT HIS HOUSE!!! Seriously, like 5 minutes ago. :D I like that kid.
Sorry this ended up being so long...
Oh man, I can't believe you are old enough for all this. It is exciting though! I love hearing stories like this, so keep them coming. And it is hilarious that you got the wind knocked out of you. HAHAHA I'm still laughing. And I can't believe you're leaving TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
