Something I've sort of always wanted to do, record my personal diary as a blog for others to see. It's completely embarrassing, reading what is mostly from my middle school years, but also interesting to just see how much I have changed over the years. So with that said, here is my mad, crazy, diary. *names changed to protect privacy, and my dignity ;p

Dear Diary,
Ok..first off, I don’t really “like” that Matt kid at all..and also Ben says he’s stopped smoking. But on to today! In gym today Mrs. D made us run 10 laps around the gym! This lady just wants to kill us! And in Mrs. Weller’s class she said “Does anyone else have something to add about Asia? Yes Chris?” Then Chris said “I am not Asian..Mike” Haha. At lunch Holly and Dani were playing volleyball so me & Anne gave Brian some “presents” (I give him trash everyday) and talked about cold backing Mitch. Why? I’ll tell you why..Well yesterday he tried to be funny by knocking over Emmett’s lunchbox. And Emmett is uber awesome! (but I don’t “like” him) So now all I say to Mitch is “Rude!” or “You know what you did” Cuz he can’t remember. And I know I’m making a big deal over nothing, but 1. It’s fun. 2. It’s Emmett!! Anyway..for Spirit Week (which our class as awesome 8th graders chose) today it was Sports Day. Yesterday was all-school-red white & blue day/decorate door contest. Tomorrow is Nationality Day. All I’m gonna wear is a green shirt. Ha! I don’t have much to choose from...Oh yeah & Holly’s wearing her contacts to school now. I wish I had contacts..Oh well!

Dear Diary,
I just got back from [camp] with Holly and Maya. It was really fun! But I already wrote about it in my Happy Bunny booklet and my xanga. But other than that nothing else really happened except me telling Denise I like Dave, and buying Etnies & checkered Vans. But since I’m on the topic I might as well give you the top guys I like, like I did last summer.
1. Dave Cartwright 2. Brandon (from [camp] last year) 3. Matt ([camp] this year) 4. “Woman”/Kyle ([camp] last year)
And I know I haven’t seen Brandon and Kyle in over a year, and Kyle’s a stupid little looser, but I hardly like them at all so it doesn’t matter all that much. Ok enough about guys I like, just go to my xanga or read the Happy Bunny thing to be entertained with my life.

P.S. I found out Ben smokes pot...no kidding..

Friday
On Friday our only class was swimming. It was soo cold! Me, Maya, Kaylen, Holly, & Travis mostly stayed together the whole time. Every now & then one of us would say “1, 2, 3.” And we’d all go under water, and twice Maya & me didn’t and we saw Kaylen & Travis kissing, but Kaylen said (I think) it was just on the cheek. At morning free time I took some pictures. But before that we were supposed to have skit prep with our cabin, but we did it yesterday.
At Free Time Maya & I were on the swings & see saw at the play ground. Then us, Holly, Kaylen, Aisha, black Rob, white Rob, Travis, and I think that’s it were on the merry-go-round. Until everyone had to go to the lake. But Holly & me didn’t swim, and Maya had her one on one, Holly did too later. Then after dinner in the ball park was skits. Ours started with Kaylen asking questions about jokes at [camp], and the rest of us as super heros answering them. Then we did “Boom Snap Clap” 4 times and 4 speeds, and made everyone think we would do it with them, but did Hand Jive and then “Superhero song and it goes like so...” Then there was an old man skit, a chicken/dance skit, then Robin did a pillow fight where Gariboldi ended up killing them all epic style, then a dance, then a Moses story skit, a hand clap thing, Weird Al’s take out the trash skit, a treasure hunt skit, and an artist skit. Then snack shop, we were all running around, and there was some thing about Samantha & white Rob.
After Vespers and cabin discussion (where I saw a shooting star, & we had hot chocolate with cookies) we set up to sleep in the ball field on tarps in sleeping bags. First I had my one on one with Amanda which was cool. Then I talked to Holly, Tori, & Gina before going to sleep. Also we won Honor Cabin by giving the people a “spa.” I did a head massage.

Thursday
Ok so we got back from camp out, took showers & ate breakfast in the Dining Hall. I don’t think we had Bible class, but we did have crafts. The girls drew and thought of ideas for painting the wall, & the guys did something with bottles. Then we were supposed to go to slingshot, but they were broken so we all played 1 up, 1 down & the pyschiatrist game where we were all the person to our left & Kaylen tried guessing what our problem was. Then morning free time there was this annoying kid we call Devil, but his real name is Jaden. We hung out with Luke, but Leon ditched us, Daniel’s giving us cold back, & Kaylen hung out with her boyfriend Travis. It was the same at extra free time after lunch. Now it’s FOB......
OK it’s Saturday now, but I’ll try & remember everything. Free Time I only remember me, Holly, & Maya going to the lake for like 2 minutes just to say “hi” to Kaylen and them. Then the game that night was pushing a watermelon in the lake. Girls vs. Girls, Boys vs. Boys. That’s all I remember.

Wednesday
First I got a shower. Then breakfast & Bible class under a car. Our class today was only ropes, with Robin. First we did a kind of hold-hands-and-be-all-tangled game. Then a game called Willows in the Wind. Where you fall and are passed around. Then some ropes if you wanted. But the only one I did was where you have to cross this wire, grab ropes & get across. Everyone did it, and I was sorta good and it was fun. Then morning free time (MFT), lunch, and now Fall Out Boy..I mean flat on bunk! At Free Time we didn’t go swimming, so we hung out with Leon, Daniel, Luke & Gariboldi. Brian we just think is dumb now.
After Free Time we got ready for camp out. We collected wood, roasted hot dogs, ate barrik, & went to girl’s Vespers, where a white deer appeared. Then Maya, Holly, Kaylen, & me did the “Carlton” & sang shoe songs. We slept in a tent.

[the following posts are from my journal at summer camp. not entirely sure of the dates, but here you go]
Tuesday
OK...so it’s FOB (Fall Out Boy haha) now..not gonna talk about yesterday cuz it would take forever. So this morning we had 3 “classes” with Robin the boy’s cabin. We had sports first. But it wasn’t really a sport it was a really easy game called French Rock Paper Scissors with another boy & girls cabin. Each team picks one of the choices. Then whoever wins chases the other team. Our team kept winning. Then it was archery, which I sucked at, thus missing every one. Next was crafts. We were supposed to make tie dye cloths, but mine was just a purpleish blue blob. Then for morning free time me, Maya & Holly went on the granny swings. But it was sorta annoying cuz they kept doing the “Boom snap clap” thing wrong, which is really right, but not to me. After that was lunch (enchiladas & cornbread) Then...this.
Right before Free time we talked about a game we were gonna play, we were on Red Team. At Free Time we didn’t swim, instead me, Maya, Holly, and later Kaylen were on the granny swings talking to “Brian” AKA Brandon. But he sorta left so we went on the merry go round and a guy named Leon pushed us. After dinner they said we were having a random dance party, but it was a tennis ball game. They only person whose flag I pulled was that guy who looked like Will. After Vespers we got ready for that game. I wore blue marker under my eyes & next to one. During the game we all just hid. Except for the while me and Holly lost everyone else.

Dear Diary,
A couple weeks [ago] me and Anne went to horse camp. Then this Wednesday we went ice skating. It took me a while to get the hang of it. But eventually it was fun. And in the end..I got a huge blister! Yay! No. On Friday, Dani came over for the day. And she mostly wanted to play Sims 2. (of her and Shawn) Yesterday my family, Anne’s family, and her two German “cousins” (who were actually pretty old if you ask me - like 50′s or 60′s) went to a Minor League baseball game. [talking about the different mascots] [and there was even] a celery. Yes, a CELERY. They were creepy! The [home team] won, and then there were fireworks. They were really cool because Anne & me bought these awesome 3D glasses that made all light rainbowish. Then today we painted my room. (finally!) it’s about the same color of the ink on this page [blue]. It took almost all day, and I got to put some cool posters (er mini posters) and stuff up on my walls. Tomorrow Holly’s supposed to sleep over, so that’ll be cool. Hopefully she’ll bring her Barbies! Haha. You’d have to be us to get it. Ok...well..dunno..!!! Yeah felt like writing those things.

Dear Diary,
Tiffany’s b-day party was so fun! Once we were all there (except Victoria & Tiffany’s cousin who came later & Holly who couldn’t come.) we went swimming. We played Marco Polo and me & Maya never even got tagged. Then we roasted hotdogs. After that we were all hit soda cans with a baseball bat. I accidentaly hit Maya with the bat! Then we roasted marshmellows & made s’mores. We also called Ryan to listen to his ringtone of Temperture by Sean Paul. [BTW] Maya broke up with Ben; cuz she has a boyfriend who looks just like Chris! Then we went inside and danced and listened to music. After that they made us play “Inchy Pinch” & “The Funnel Game” Inchy Pinchy was funny cuz they put lipstick on your face by pinching you. But I knew it cuz I was like “I bet there’s make-up on my face. I can feel it, I can SMELL it!” Haha.
When we were watching TV for a while, everyone but me fell asleep! So after a long time of thinking this one girl Melissa was awake, I turned it off and went to sleep. Then we (had to) wake up at 6:30 a.m. to get ready for Hershy Park. But first we had to pick up 4 guys at Tiffany’s church. On the way there (in the church van) me & Maya were listening to Tiffany’s iPod, but after 20-30 min these two guys named Evan and Really-long-name-with-a-K took it the rest of the way. (AKA Tommy & Will) So we just had to be bored. But this other guy named Tyler only listened to one song on Victoria’s ipod and gave it back. So Maya said he was a gentleman. So then I said “gentleman” like Chase at [youth group] and we kept saying it through out the day.
When we got there our chaparone had to put sunscreen on us, and Maya sang “Sun lotion so good for me, you’ll protect me hehehe. A daba daba da. ‘UV light - bad. Sun lotion - good.’ Blop. Blop. Blooop. Smiley” We sang it all day too. The first ride we went on was the tilt-awhirler or something like that. Then just me & Maya went on the swings twice (four times all day) The only other ride we all went on was the pirate boat. It was the best one. We went on it twice. Except the 2nd time I had to sit next to that annoying kid Evan. Then everyone but Maya, Melissa, & me went on rollar coasters. Of course we were stuck watching bags. But me & Maya just looked for guys with cool hair. Pretty much all day. And there were.
For lunch Tiffany’s mom had to buy Maya, me & her friend lunch. While everyone else got what they wanted. But our lunch was pretty good. It was chicken tenders with whatever sauce (I got BBQ), applesauce, chips (which I gave away) & Pepsi. (From this point I had a wedgie all f’in day!) After lunch, was more waiting & watching. Then everyone went on this water ride except me (left my bathing suit in my suitcase), Melissa, Victoria, & Hope. We were supposed to take “shifts” watching the bags, but Victoria & Hope spent most of the time talking to a guy named Jeremy who worked there. After about an hour of waiting, everyone but...take a wild guess..me, Maya & Melissa went on the Great Bear. So me & Maya went on the swings for the 4th time. Then we went to the arcade with Melissa to wait for everyone else. The only thing me & Maya did was ask two random guys for a quarter to watch a weird puppet thing. Which was extremely creepy by the way.
Then we all went on this tour thing with singing cows..I mean, what the?! But Maya, Victoria, & I didn’t even pay attention. They talked about Victoria’s new boyfriend, and I just drank my Pepsi. Even though Coke is better..But at least we got free candy and a bracelet! Then when we were waiting for the guys, we were feeding this little bird Twizzler pieces. And it ate it! On the way back Maya & me had to sit with Tyler and this other guy Marcus. We were mad at first since Evan & K had the ipod, but after we saw this car run into cement guard thing, we just talked to Marcus and Tyler and it was fun. Except for Tiffany, Hope, Victoria, Evan & K singing all out of tune.
When we got to the church I asked K if I could call him Kevin. “No.” “Then KJ.” “Ok, since I am whatever jr.” Then when Marcus & Tyler left they hugged me & Maya good bye. Which was sorta weird. And then stupid Tiffany said “Is one of you guys going out with them?!” And we’re just like “No. What the heck?!” Then we went to [our school] & our moms picked us up.

Dear Diary,
School is finnaly out! On the last day Maya & me saw Mrs. O’Connor playing the drums, so we made up that all our teachers were in a heavy metal rock band. Mrs. Weller with spiky blue hair on drums, Mrs. Michaels on electric guitar, and Mrs. Tilly singing “It’s a heart issue! It’s a heart issue! Do youuu love Christ??” And when we told them Mrs. Weller said it reminded her of a skit; Mrs. Tilly said “You girls have too much time on your hands.”; and Mrs. Michaels said “Did you two have anything to drink this morning?” ha! Then the long award thing. I had to sit next to Mitch & Brian. Then when Emmett went up I cheered for him cuz I wanted to. Then the middle school (6th & 7th) had pizza, and icecream. Holly, Mike, Will, & me were dead last in line! Oh well. My Volcom hoodie came Thursday. It’s so cool! I wore it last night to [youth group]. It was a little boring though, and Dave Cartwright didn’t even come. He was at that [concert] thing last week though. Him and all his friends just skateboarded the whole time. Even “Kyle” or “Puppyface” as I like to call him (in my head) was there. With blonde hair! I’m pretty sure it used to be brown! Anyway, today was wasted on the computer and all that crap. Ok well I’m going to bed now...um good night?

Dear Diary,
This morning me & Holly had to open car doors. It was funny cuz a lot of people got their own doors. Then when Chris came and went in, I said “You know it’s getting late when Chris comes.” Cuz Holly wanted to know what time it was. Mrs. Driscoll subbed 4 Mrs. Michaels...uhm..had our HBJ final, and I also finished my math final. I’ll probably get a B or C on that one. Maya got to go home before lunch to help her dad clean. Then she said she was going to go swimming! Then when our little “group” or whatever, was walking, Maya and her dad drove by, and she leaned out the window and waved. And we all started shouting “Hi Maya!” Oh, & Holly tore a leaf off a tree that Alexis wrote on that said “LEX was here” Yeah I know random. We also got our yearbooks right when my bus was called. So only Emily signed mine so far. But they were fun to look at. Will’s picture is so funny! It looks like he’s trying to be all pimp and stuff. And as much as I hate to write this, Ben Miller actually looked sorta hot in one of the pictures! But only cuz he had longish hair. And no I do not like him again! I hope I never will! On a lighter note! I watched Cheaper By The Dozen 2 tonight. With Jacob Smith. (my fav actor) yay.

Dear Diary,
Today me & mom went to Mommom’s and Poppop’s for lunch. They had good burgers and pie called Shoo Flie Pie. I admit that it was pretty boring after that. So I just read that Chloe book I’m borrowing from Tiffany. When we got home I started writing a story. I know, I’m a little looser. =P Too bad! Anyway, I might add a 2nd chapter. Key word being “might.”...I just noticed my diary..er you? Is ripping a little. Not good. My other 2 are really crappy, so I hope this one’s OK. Back to the whole story thing. So maybe it will end up like the other ton of stories (mostly Sims 2 ones) I never finished. Around 8:00 pm Mom went shopping so I listened to random music and acted like a moron. As in dancing and lipsyncing. Bleh. But there was a cool Irish song and I made a sad attempt at Irish step dancing. Never again! I also made a preview thing for Rocky XIVV (17?) starring Mike and Shawn. And some other stuff for my sims TV. Well me & mom just finished watching a Mr. Bean movie. So it’s what? 11:14 pm. And I gotta go to sleep so I can go to church and [youth group] and stuff...C ya

Dear Diary,
If your wondering why I haven’t writen in a while, it’s cuz life is extremely boring. Like when I try buying hoodies off eBay I forget (Yes I’m serious) and someone else gets it. Anyway, yesterday our whole class (& the 6th graders but no one cares about them) went to Philly. AKA Philadelphia. Well except Maya, Victoria, Dean P, Will & Anne who was away. It was awesome cuz I brought my camera I got for Christmas and took lots of pictures and even videos! Shawn’s “tuskin raider” was the best. Anyway, our bus broke down on i-95 (I think thats it) So 3 cops came and got us another bus. Then we were divided into two groups when we got there. I was with Shawn, Mitch, Brian, and Michelle. So I hung out with them mostly. Mrs. Lake was me, Shawn, Brian, Hannah Anderson, Michelle, & Becca Johnson’s chaparone. Yay..she kept yelling at us to hurry up. So we didn’t get to see a lot in the Constitution Center. Of course, there was time to walk all over and look at boring stuff! On the way home we rode a white bus. Mike thought it was a jail bus. haha. I sat with Holly & Dani again and Scott was behind us, so it was fun. Well until Scott’s fan got stuck in my hair and I had to rip it out..

Dear Diary,
This morning the Power Team from the Wingfield thing came. They were pretty cool. They broke 8 cement blocks with their elbows, tore a phone book in half, squeezed cans, bent a metal pole 2 1/2 times, and broke a baseball bat. Yeah..in gym we ran the mile. I wanted to run more than I did, but my leg hurt really bad. So I got 11 min. 50 sec. Even Maya & Holly beat me! On Tuesday I showed Holly a picture I drew of Cartman from South Park with glasses, and she wanted to keep it, then Mike wanted me to draw him Kenny yesterday. So I did & he put it in his binder cover. Then today I had to draw Butters for Chris. Confusing I know. Anyway we had to make musical instruments that could play a tune. I just put fishing line on this birdhouse Chris’s relative brought us last year. Well actually dad made it (put strings on)..but I hammered it! once...I couldn’t figure out what to play until like 5 min. before my turn Chris played “Hot cross buns” on mine. Well almost everyone else played it! Mike’s was the coolest looking though. It was an “electric” guitar made out wood. He got a 75% though. ha.

P.S. My Hawk Nelson CD came today! =)

Dear Diary,
Ok, I have to say this, Ewww! I can’t believe I wrote all that stuff about Ben Miller! As you should know by now unless your stupid..that I like Dave Cartwright. But on to today! In gym we did the usual/sometimes 6 laps. Then we did push-ups. Tiffany & Maya said it looked like I had my butt in the air while doing the push-up. It was awkward. I got 27 push-ups. For the bar hang I got 20 seconds. At lunch I just ate whatever Tina Phillips in 8th didn’t want cuz she was giving it out. I also had an air head thing from Regina. Wanna know why? Well me being the smart person I am left my lunch in the car...Yes I know brilliant...Then me and Anne digging up wild onions and Mitch put it in his mouth but spit it out. Adam actually ate one! Haha. This afternoon I did half of my research paper. I took a long time cuz I kept putting it off. Then I spent an extra half hour looking at pictures. So it hurt my eyes. Great..but they had a bunch of crappy pictures of me on the [youth group website] thing. They should be sued! I will sue them. Not really! Ok...well...

Dear Diary,
Today is actually Monday, not Sunday, but I have to write about yesterday. So first in church me & mom were greeters. After the service the members voted on a new name for the church. Mom told me today it ended up being [name]. Over the weekend I bought the new American Idol magazine. It’s cool. Then Lena came over for a while. When she went home I went to [youth group]. At first I though Dave wasn’t there but he was outside. Then they put us in 4 teams and we had to pick someone to be the mummy to be wrapped. They were going to pick me, but did some other guy who was smaller. I think Dave was the mummy on his team. haha. Before the talk thing they told us to all pick either the activity team, the praise band, or care givers. Me & Denise picked activity thing. We met in the trailer. Dave & Trey came in right before we had to pick what we wanted to do. At first I thought Dave was in the band group cuz I saw him there and he plays guitar. I guess he changed his mind. Before I went home last night he was playing his electric guitar. It was awesome.

Dear Diary,
Today & yesterday I had to do devotions. It’s not that bad actually. After tomorrow I’ll be done. Yay. Um what else? Oh did I mention that on Tuesday Dean dyed the front of his hair blonde cuz he was bored? Oh and we had to walk 2 laps around the whole school. And we had to pray for God to protect the school the whole time. It was so boring! In gym we ran 3 wind sprints as usual then did sit-ups for the presidental fitness thing. I got 43. Um yay? But..It’s official, I don’t like Ben anymore. I can’t believe I wrote all that crap about him. And yeah I like Dave Cartwright now. I don’t know how much exactly, but I do. I miss him..oh yeah I saw a picture of him in the old church directory when he was little, and he was so adorable! Yes I’m weird I know..He better come to [youth group] on Sunday or I’ll be mad/sad. haha. Ok..I guess that’s it
★ Jennifer ★
P.S. I was not trying to stalk him or anything like that! I just wanted to see what he looked like when he was little. Sheesh.
