Holy Freaking Cow! An Update!!

Yes, it's me again. After over a month I've finally returned and actually updated. It's a miracle, I know.

But anyway, quite a few things have happened since I've not updated. So, I've decided to tell them to you with semi-humorous commentary.

The Pioneer Trek - A difficult but worthwhile experience that I never wish to experience again. Now, there were somethings that were great! But dang, it was hard. I'll not go into much detail though. I'm planning on writing a post about this one.

Girl's Camp - *shudders* Please don't make me elaborate. I'll tell you this though: I'm certain you are all aware of a certain Bible story about a certain unfortunate man named Daniel who was thrown into a certain den of lions for certain reasons, right? Well let's just say I can relate.

Not going to by grandparents...yet - As many of you know, I was supposed to go to Ramah and visit my grandparents about a week ago. Well, as you might've guessed by the title, I haven't left yet. Which is somewhat unfortunate, I do want to see my relatives and the heat is going to kill me soon. But you have to understand our predicament which will be answered in the next section.

We have a new car... sort of - We've had our old car, the green one, for almost ten years now (and we got it used). It is dying. The AC doesn't really work, it overheats about once a week, and it's just old. (Sounds kind of like my computer.) Anyway, my mother, for good reason, refused to drive six hours in something as miserable and unreliable as that. So, we've been trying to get a new car. Event after event has tried to stop us. It's been pretty crazy. Anyway, at this point, we have the car sitting in front of our house and we can't drive it. Our latest setback, no lisence plate. And the car had all it's bin numbers scratched off, it had been stolen, recovered by the owners, and sold at an auction, which makes it difficult to get one.

I'm all by myself, kind of, until Thursday - Ok, not completely by myself. Dad's here and Max is also. But Dad is at work most of the time and Max is, well, a dog. This story is basically a continuation of the previous two. See, my aunt, Marlie, decided at the last moment that she was going to leave on Sunday morning and offered to take some of us. Origionally, it was just going to be Sheridan and Brenna. But then, shortly before they were supposed to leave, Mariah and Mom decided to leave also. I might've gone, but there was no more room in the car. We'll be going up on Thursday though. I don't know how long we'll be there.

New Computer - Ok that's kind of a lie. I actually got two new computers. So now I have three somewhat functional computers in my bedroom all serving different purposes. My old laptop, the pretty looking one, is dying and turns off at random but has all my stuff on it. My new/old laptop plays Starcraft and is very portable. My new computer, it's a desktop machine, is for my online math class and it can play DVDs.

That's really all for now, I'll update more as I remember too. Cya later!
