Second Day of torture. (RV)

           There are no adjectives to describe today. It could be a natural disaster, but I'm pretty positive, (negative) that the stuff that happened isn't natural at all. I hope your not to traumatized by this post. Good luck!
       So the camp we stayed at last night was very outdoorsy. We left at, well I'm not sure when we left. So we went to get deisel fuel at a gas station, we didn't fit so we had to go to another. Well when we get there just randomly, the sliding glass door that covers the door knobs on the main door just totally shatters. I'm starting to think this thing is haunted. I think I have really bad luck with glass, first my phone, then the door, whats next. Okay, so it's 3:28 right now, and I think we are lost. Why, You ask? Maybe it's because we just pulled off to the side of the road right next to a dam with a sign that says, "When horn sounds, water level rises suddenly." Nothing to worry about. Especially when theres a sign that says "Stay back 150 feet", and we are not even 20 feet from it. Ya, it's perfectly safe..... What makes it even more funny is that we were following the GPS. What's up with that. Map Quest and GPS's can't be trusted. Now my moms complaining about how GPS's and Map Quest sucks. LOL. "You'd think these things would work from the amount of money we spent on them!"  "These things suck!" I love you mom. Now she's talking back to it. Sometimes she amazes me really. We are also trying to figure out the time. Our phones say 3:35 but the GPS says 2 something. My dad thought we had a time change. Hello!!! We are in Michigan. It's on the same side as Pennsylvania. I know where I got my smarts from.
Another problem is that this stupid window next to me won't shut, it keeps on sliding open. Even with the lock on it. Yes, it is locked.... I think. And Someone... dad..... keeps forgetting to shut and latch the doors. So every time we go around a bend or a bump I hear. "BANG CRASH BOOM, ALI! SHUT THE DOOR!" Your welcome mommy dearest, I would love to shut the door even though I didn't even leave it open. Wow, I'm rude. I don't know where we are right now but I guess we aren't lost yet because we are driving, and my parents aren't fighting. 3:41 I wouldn't recomend going over train tracks in an RV. It feels like your on a plane with the worst turbulence ever recorded in history, throw in a mixer and turn it on to full speed, and throw in a couple tornadoes. Sounds like Fun. Seriously I think that if everything in the Rv wasn't like atttached to the floor and walls. We would of been buried alive, but we would of been dead. Wait, that doesn't make any sense. Oh well. Nothing interesting is happening now. So I'll probably put up another post later on to finish off day two.
Pray for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Road Trip....... Day 1.

........ Hmmmm..... How do I put this nicely? It was an... adventure...? Before I tell you about the actual trip let me tell you about the morning. So, we were supposed to leave at 11 or 11:30, my mom and I were ready at 8 o'clock. Dad wasn't. He still needed to download the GPS update, which didn't work at first, but with my dads "excellent" skill with technology, it took about an hour and a half to complete. But wait I'm not done yet, theres still more.... that's a surprise. The next problem is that the bike rack hitch that was for our car doesn't fit on RV's. Hmmmm I wonder why? So dad had to run out to 1 bike store, an auto part store, and target. When none of those places he went to had it. He had to call another bike store, who told him to go to U-Haul Luckily U-Haul had it. Then he had to attach the bike rack to the RV, get the pedals off of the 3 bikes, get them onto the bike rack, and secure them. This process took about, maybe an hour. Well by then my mom was almost ready to throw a full blown hissy fit. What makes it worse is that we were leaving that day,(Saturday) and we still didn't have a place to stay that night or Sunday! By then my mom was kinda fed up, well not kinda, really fed up. So she took charge and booked us 2 places to stay, one for Saturday, and one for Sunday, in like 10 minutes. If we hadn't of been able to book a place, we would of had to leave on Sunday. But all of our stuff is in the RV. We took pity on my dad so we let him get a shower, we had a quick lunch, put the dogs in the RV, and took off at 2:10. Which we consider a lucky number because it's our address, or so we thought.
I'm hunkered down as far as I could get in the seat reading my second book that day. (My parents said no more because I'll have them done in the first week) We get onto the turn pike, and who would of guessed, when we got to the turn pike tool booth, dad hits the right mirror on the side of the building. Hilarious. We then had to pull over on the side of the road, where we spent about 15 minutes trying to re-adjust it. My dad had me sit in the drivers seat to tell him if it was in the right place when he was adjusting it. I've never drove a car before, I'm only 13, so I had no idea what was going on. I have to admit I threw a little bit of a hissy fit my self.
But other than that everything was fine the rest of the trip. Just kidding. There is so much more. So after we got back on the turn pike, we followed my moms map quest directions to a T. Can you guess what happens next. Well it turns out that they were wrong. We were in the middle of NO WHERE, well somewhere in Michigan, I think, when we realized that we couldn't find the camp. Of course my mom calls for directions, (men never admit they are lost) and we find out that we are like 80 miles away from where we are supposed to be. (okay that might be a slight exaggeration, like 40) We eventually get there where we check in. My mom gets out of the car when we get to the lot, but I had to stay in there with dad while he was pulling in. A guy who was in the front office when we checked in came and helped dad back in. Well we couldn't make the swing into the lot 58 so we just took 59. Ha Ha. When we got out he asked us if we were the one from Pittsburgh. They probably had a pool going to see how many times we got lost, which is confidential information, (around15) and about how much help we needed pulling in. So embarrassing.
But in the end God gave us a beautiful sunset, that I got pictures of, to let us know that everythings going to be okay, ha He's hilarious, and that everythings planned.
Can't wait for tomorrow! NOT. Yesterday we got in really late, because of all the driving around in circles. That's why I had to post the first day on Sunday.

4th day at vacation bible school- water day

Today was really fun. The kids were nice and it was hot outside. Good day to get wet! We hit each other with water balloons, sprayed each other with hoses, and squeezed sponges above our heads. We even got sparkly tatoos. mines a purple dolphin with teal water. Its really sparkly!!!!!! Sorry I got distracted. Over all it was great.
I forgot to show you what I gave my mom for her birthday. I drew her this dress.

When I got home I had to pack my art stuff for the trip. I sharpened 132 prismacolor colored pencils and then organized them in color darkness and rainbow order. How can I do that, but not be able to stay awake in math. Hmmm, any answers? The last time I was organizing them I had just got done and was putting the lid on when I dropped them all. Ya I cried. Two more days until the trip and I have to say. I am getting kinda excited! I think it's going to be fun.  The picture underneath is my friend, Erin, and I on the bus going to duquesne universcity for the Duquense english Festival

3rd day at Vacation Bible School

Yep, I was right. The kids absolutley positivley (well negativley) very much dislike me. They're cute and all but scratches and punches do hurt. I don't think I'll ever have kids. Sorry mom and dad, no grand children for you. Unless I change my mind, which doesn't seem very likely with the way things are going.
Other than that everythings the same. I mean it's mostly only like 2 kids that hate me, but when someone hates you it feels like the world hates you, or is that just me? Tomorrows water day and I can guarentee that I will be hit in the face with a bunch of water balloons and noodles. Maybe I should just stay home. But then what kind of person would I be. I signed up for it, so I'm going to stay with it because that wouldn't be fair. Although it's not really fair when 5th graders and throwing stuff and you and zapping you with hair bands. Esspecially when they are your friends brother and his friend. It's really not nice when they punch you in the back too.
You know what forget the crap. I guess I deserved it, I mean I did a wasp on them with my hair band, but only after they shot it at me.
Karma just doesn't like me. Neither does my horoscope.
Have a great day! I know I won't be!

(pray for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE)

Idea from Kiahra

I had asked you guys to give me ideas for my blog. Since I'm running out of them. Kiahra, Teen Sass, told me to "You could try talking about what you want to do when your older, or post your writing ideas:) Those are amazing!" So I'll tell you that. Don't fall alsleep yet.
When I grow up I wanna be a toys r' us kid. ha ha jk, I want to be a marine biologist, an archeologist, and an astronomer. I've always been obsessed with the ocean, the fish, coral, (mostly fish, not sharks) but not so much stuff that can pinch you. I really want to study marine biology because it would be such an interesting career. I could work in an aquarium although thats not really in my interest. Because I want to get out and see the world.
Archeology because I'm really interested in old artifacts and clues to our past. (Incas, Aztecs, Native Americans.) My dad has been studying our family tree, and he found out that we came over (on his side) in the 1700's. Maybe earlier. One of my ancestors married the grand chiefs niece of the Shawnee tribe, (native american) for horses. Thats why I'm part Native American. I have a huge rock collection, which I guess I could be a gemologist. I've always been amazed by rocks and stone pieces.
Astronomy because hello space. I wouldn't like to be an astronaut but if I could study the stars, planets, plasmas, comets, and things like that. The stars and night sky have always facinated me because you feel so small. Just looking at the sky not even through a telescope, is amazing. When I was younger I got a really good telescope for christmas, the sky was really really clear and all the lights were out because we went out around midnight. My dad was able to postion it perfectly on the moon. It was amazing. There are so many craters and valleys, mountains, you name it. Its not just one flat surfave, or a perfect sphere. My sister and her husband were up and so they were looking through the telescope, and when I ran inside to get my camera, he moved it and we couldn't reposition it on the moon. I still am angry with him for that. Shhh don't tell.
Thats what I want to be when I grow up, I hope you aren't asleep, which you probably are. I write so much when other blogs are just quick easy reads. Why am I soooo wierd.

Siblings

I have been an only child my whole life. I mean ya sure, I have a half sister. But she has never lived with us. My dad was married before and had cassie. They divorced then 10 years later he married my mom and they had me. Cassie has always lived with her mom and step dad in ohio. Thats what people don't get, I'm an only child but I have a half-sister. It's really confusing.
When I was little I used to ask for a little brother or sister for christmas. I wanted someone to be able to look up to me and learn from my mistakes so she wouldn't have to make the same ones. I wanted someone who would ask me for help on doing make up and would let me play with thier hair. Someone who would cry with me and would cry on my shoulder when a boy broke our heart. Someone who would always be there for me, and I for her. Someone who would hold my hand when I will hopefully get a second piercing in my ears, and someone who will be able to ask me if I'm okay when I walk into a door, then laugh at me of course. Someone who will always be there for me, someone who understands me. Someone to have fun with and have inside jokes with. Someone who knows me better than I do. But after a lot of years I've realized that all of those characteristics and little things are a best friend. They are like your sister, some times you fight and don't talk to each other. But in your heart you know that even in bad times you are still there for each other and love each other like a sister. With those kinds of friends, some last forever, but some walk away from the friendship, but will always be close to your heart. Some might move away, but you'll still keep in touch. You never want to loose those kinds of people. Some times you'll meet people later in life and instantly become friends. You might even hate someone and judge them, but when you get to talking you realize that they aren't that bad and you have a ton in common.
I know that I got a little sappy, but I'm just so happy that I have amazing friends, because even though I never really had a little sister or an older one around, they became what I never had, we were just the same age. We make mistakes together, and really don't learn much off of them, but have a good time.
I guess that what I wanted to say was Thanks you guys (girls) are amazingly awesome people and I never want you to change.

Vacation bible school day 2

Okay so today was the second day. It was mostly the same but we played more sports. Theres nothing really to talk about. Thursday is water day, I can't wait! Unless they tell us we aren't allowed to participate, that it's only for the kids. Grr. For the 4th of July we are going to be in Mackinaw City Michigan. It will be really cool, because we are right on the beach and they set off fireworks from 3 different locations. BIG fireworks. What will be funny is that we will have the chihuahuas with us and they are really afraid of loud noises. Ha ha, but so am I... I'm such a freak. My mom wants to put glow sticks around their necks. So we won't loose them. I'll take lots of pictures. We are leaving this Saturday and I still don't have my new phone. That's really irritating me.
I'm running out of topics because my life isn't interesting like Kiahras.

1st day of vacation bible school june 27 2011

They say that kids are a good at judging character. Or maybe it's dogs are good at judging... Oh well same thing. Today was a lot of fun, although I don't think kids like me very much. They must be smart... We started off the morning with a skit. It wasn't very funny but the kids seemed to enjoy it. Except for one. Maggie, She was so funny. When ever they told a joke she would go, "I don't get it, or thats not funny!" She also had the best pout face I've ever seen. Then we went to hear a bible story, then to do an activity, then to music, and then to out door games. After that we had snack. It was surprisingly really good. A tortilla, some cream cheese, and grape jelly. I know what your thinking... eww gross. But your wrong. Although it's not really that fun because, sure you get to be with the little 4 year olds, but you don't get to participate in any of the sports and stuff. Maybe tomorrow will be better.

test run.

Okay so this is a test run from my phone. I'm not sure if it will work or not. But i'm planning on blogging on the trip. So ya

Giving back and Stuff

I would like to be a bone marrow donor. When I read the 3 book series "Angels in Pink" You'd have to read it to understand, I realized that even with a slim chance, you can save someones life. My mom doesn't really want me to be, but it's my decision. Even if my hips hurt a little for a while, it will all be worth it, Right? I think she's concerned because you have to go under silly gas. I'm not sure how to spell the other thing. :P  I just feel that I really need to do it, and there might not even be a match for mine, but at least I would of tried. I was looking at the dashboard on here and I looked at the reading list. You guys should really check out the blog called, "Alice's Bucket List." She's a 15 year old girl with terminal cancer and she created a bucket list, (things that she wants to do before she passes on) like swimming with sharks... etc. I just started following her today, but it's really amazing. Another thing on her list is to make everyone a bone marrow donor. I'd already wanted to be one before I saw her blog. She has over 14,000 followers. But this really gave me a push. But I think you have to be over 18 to do it. Grrrr. Btw if I ever get in a car crash or anything that makes me die, I would like to a organ donor. Since I don't have my drivers license I don't have any written permission anywhere that says I would like to be. Well on here I give my full permission to be a organ donor.

6 more days until the horribly dreaded road trip, I better get a new phone before and quick because mine cracked and it's irritating me. We are going to be gone for a month up to the great lakes, so I can't say for sure if I'll be able to blog or not, it's okay I'll right it in a journal and then type it up when I get back. Which I might have to call someone to pick me up at the air port a few weeks early. :P Does anyone want post cards? I'm also going to draw a lot on this trip so you'll be able to see them up in aughust. I think I spelt that wrong.
Katie W. and I are going to be helpers this coming week at St. John Neuhmans Summer Son Bible Camp. We are going to be with the little preschoolers!!! They are sooo cute.
My parents bought me a guitar for Easter and they got me lessons. So far, I think I'm doing very well. I'm going to bring it on the trip and play Green Day, to annoy the crap out of my parents. Tee Hee. Unfortionatley it's an acoustic guitar so you can't really play any rock because it will just sound pretty. Does anyone have any song recomendations for me??? Prob not.

I'm soo boring on here, I just right soooo much and who wants to read all that. grrr.
But it's getting kinda late and I am tired so Night!.
