PUBLIC SCHOOL!

Finally, I'm in high school and now going to public school! It's very exciting!! There are a lot of things that are VERY different. For example, cussing. Also very short skirts. Oh also, my stalker. Yes, I said stalker. It all started by my mistake of accepting his friend request on Facebook. On the first day of school, he waved at me during lunch. I thought he might be waving at someone else, so I didn't wave back. Then the next day he came up to me, gave me a hug (awkward!) and started talking to me! SO weird! Finally I said, "Well, I have to go meet a friend." And he gave me ANOTHER awkward hug!! This kind a thing went on for a few days. One day when he came up to me, he said, "So, I'm single now." I was freaking out! So I quickly said, "I have to go to class." I didn't want him to try to ask me out. From then on I tried extra hard to avoid him. That didn't work out too well. It seems that when I try to avoid him, he shows up even more. Bryce, my brother that is a senior, was wanting to come to school with me and act as my boyfriend in front of stalker boy. So, he came with me one morning before school. BUT we couldn't find him! So frustrating. "One day he messaged me on Facebook and asked me to Homecoming. All I could think was WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME?! I decided to reply back with, "Oh, I'm not going sorry." So as of today he's still talking to me. And he's still creeping me out. Why does this happen to me?!

Volleyball

I have been doing volleyball for a couple months now. I'm not good at it, but at least I'm getting better. Here are a few pics of my volleyball season. Sadly this Saturday is my last game =( . We'll see if I can continue or not.

Tillamook + Beach + steem engine = FUN!

My mommy.

My friend who I found out is mormon at my school!

Lilypads.

Katie.

Devil's churn.

Amber the cow..with ice cream.

Cold, wet ocean.

I'm very tired of this long day.

Today I went to the beach, Tillamook, and went on a steem engine ride today! This is to Rachelle: I did eat alot of samples! I got a free ice cream too. The steem engine rocked alot! It felt like a boat. It was very hard to keep standing. It was very cold and was raining throughout the whole day. I got some pics to share, prepare for alot! And somehow, my pictures are above.

Sad!

I was so excited! I asked my friend, who only comes to church on Wednesday night activities, on Wednesday to come to chruch, and she said yes! So, she couldn't come on Mother's Day, and then this week (today) I called her asked her to if she could come to church. She then replied no.... It was really sad =( I don't think I'm ever going to get Missionary experience since I'm homeschooled =( SAD DAY!!! But, on the upside, I get to go to Tillamook Cheese Factory tommorow!!!! Well, hopefully I will be able to post some pictures of that, if I get any.

Poisin Oak

Still, I haven't gotten around to posting often enough. I have poison oak =( It's really bad on my arm, it's now a huge blister scab. It used to be a million blisters, then it turned into one huge blister and now like I said a huge blister scab. I also have some on my face, my legs, my neck, and the side of my stomach. My birthday was pretty cool. I am now a teenager.

Mom: Now that you're a teenager doesn't mean you can be moody.
Me: I know..And when I do I don't mean to -roles eyes- I love you still.

Ah, Mom... Sorry if I cause trouble with my attitude, I don't mean to be a nuisance. My cousins, Caprice and Max and Max's wife Stefanie , came to visit us from Oregon about a week ago. It was really fun! I went to the coast with them for a whole day! I also finally got a Facebook!!! I spend most of my time on the computer on there now. It's fun...

What's Been Going On

Well, I haven't posted in forever! A little while ago, I went ice-skating with the youth in my ward. It was my first time ice-skating! I was so scared, because of the story of James falling and cutting his head open on the ice. Also, the story of the Olympic ice-skater slicing his leg open! -shiver- Though I didn't get out with-out an injury! When I was skating with this guy, Joe, I tripper (for the thousandth time!) and he came down with me and skated over my finger...OUCH! But I felt bad for Joe cause he was feeling bad.....Besides that I haven't really done any thing spectacular... Though I was emailing my friend that goes to my church, and almost everyone that goes to my school goes to a church so I asked her what church she went to......She replied and said she was....... MORMON!!! How great is that?! It was awesome to find out! I'll try to do another post soon!

Taekwondo and French Club

Thursday, again, I had Taekwondo. I LOVE Taekwondo. It's a good work-out, its fun, my instructor is awesome, it teaches me discipline, etc... Also, I did 23 push-ups in a minute! French club is right after Taekwondo, in the same room. So the people who come in get to smell sweaty me and the stinky room...yummm....My French name (and I requested this) is Rochelle. Which is my middle name and it is my AWESOME Aunt's name. I am sooooo excited to go to Portland to see my cousin, Henry, get baptised!!! Wait...can he be that old yet?! That's not possible! Time goes by very fast..... Too fast in fact. Well, I'll try to keep up.

2010!

I can't beleive its already 2010! That means school is halfway over!!! I get to wear my new orange belt to Taekwondo for the first time tomorrow! I'm going to start taking French club, and guitar along with Taekwondo. I can't wait till I can play guitar really well! I just recently had my cousins, Valerie and Anthony, and my aunt, Marsha, and Uncle, Daren, come over to my house. It was really fun to see them! I miss all my other family in Portland =( I need to see them soon! I also need to see my Utah family. Can't wait till the summer!

Christmas!

Hey! I love Christmas! I got a new MP3 player! I'm so excited, it has 8GB! I also got a cute, plaid zipp-up hoodie, an oragami book, and more. Leave a comment and tell me what you got!

ORANGE BELT!!!

So, I tested today in Taekwondo. I was really nervous. It was in front of about 70 people. But.... I got promoted!!!!! I am now an orange belt =) !!!!!!!! My instructor was telling my that when I sit down (we were sitting on the floor) that its disrespectful to show the bottoms of my feet to the judges. But, when you sit criss cross apple sauce for a LONG time your legs get numb. My instructor (Mrs. Baker) was telling me a story about a girl that was sitting criss cross apple sauce and became numb. When her name was called up she stood up and sprained her ankle, but didn't notice it until half way through her form....Ouch! Also this one guy did the same thing, but he broke his leg. I can't wait till I'm a black belt!!!

Yo!!!

Yo, What's up guys?!!!! I can't wait till Christmas! So yesterday (Tuesday) I had a whole bunch of tests =( It was OK I guess.... I really dislike tests, quizzes and pop quizzes. I have some very, very, very, very sad news......the Eckstines are moving ='( . Who are the Eckstines you may ask? They are an AWESOME family from my school ACE. They were one of my first friends. Any now they are moving......This Saturday I am having a Belt test!!!! It is at 10am in Drain, Oregon. I'm very nervice and I hope it will be alright. I'll blog after I test, and wish me luck! I hope some of my taekwondo buddies will be there, I am the only person in ACE that is testing =( SCARY!!!!

Taekwondo Uniform!

I got my Taekwondo uniform!!!! I sowed the patches on myself =) Here's a picture of me in my uniform:

OK, I know I look really stupid in the picture, but That is the top half of my uniform =D . Now I can test for my Yellow(?) belt!! Hopefully I will pass it. I now can beat people up if I need to (like Bryce, robbers, kidnappers). I am totally prepared for danger, lol. I'm excited to wear the uniform for my first time Thursday! I'll post soon!

Strep Throat =(

I have Strep Throat =( . Saturday I got home from my friend Shay's house at 11:00. I was dizzy my throat was a little soar. I had a head ache and and I was soar all over. We were guessing that I sadly had the swine flu. I missed church Sunday, which was the worst Sunday to miss church! One of my best friends had just turned 12 and was going into Beehives! (We have a surprise for the new coming Beehives. We put ribbons into their hair, each ribbon different colors and each symbolizing the Young Woman's values.) Sunday night I could NOT sleep because my throat was so soar! Monday my mom insisted on taking me to Urgent Care (I didn't want to). We sat in the exam room forever! Then finally the doctor came in and asked us some questions took a look at my throat and went away. Another doctor came in and took a quick swab step throat test. It came back as posistive. Thankfully, I got some "drugs".

Updates

Well, I don't have really have any updates, but I thought I should blog. I went to Taekwondo Thursday. We did 80 jumping-jacks! It was a little painful. In December, I think, I am going to be testing for my orange belt. But I have to buy a uniform and the testing before I can test. So we'll see how that goes.
I have been missing swimming =( . I think a I'm fish or something! If I stay out of the water too long I die! I can't wait till next year's synchronized swimming!! Since I got promoted to a champion last year, I'm trying to pick out music for my solo. Any suggestions?

Halloween Costume

So as I said I would do, in one of my earlier posts, I am posting a picture of my Halloween costume.

I have a hat that I found in our storage that my brother, Bryce, used for his pirate costume years ago. I have a bandanna, an eye patch I made, a hope earring, a really poofy shirt, same black pants, a pumpkin orange sash, and a pair of ballet flats.

Disappointment and Fun

I had some disappointment Thursday. I went to my first Taekwondo session Thursday in Cottage grove. I sat down (along with the other students) and the instructor told us to take off our necklaces, bracelets, earrings, glasses, etc... Well, I just got my ears pierced about 2 months ago so I can't take them out yet (actually 9 more days!). So I raised my hand and asked what to do if I couldn't take my earrings out. She said I couldn't to Taekwondo =( . So I had to sit the for an hour and just watch all the fun they did. I was very disappointed. But I got to go to my friend Leah's house Thursday night so I was happy for that. After spending the night at Leah's house I got home and my other friend Shay called and I went over to her house. I went to the Oregon coast with Shay and her and it was miserable!!! It was so windy and cold and I went into the ocean until I couldn't stand it, ha ha. Then we went to her house and watched a movie an went to bed. The next day we mostly hung out till 4 o'clock then we went to a Young Woman's Activity at Green Hill. It was fun. Then we were heading to Splash (on Saturday's Splash is open from 1pm-9pm) and found out it was closed for the week. That was sad also.
