OK here is some kind of aquired thoughts of mine

SO basically I haven't written alot, but oh man have I had things going around in my head!!
First of all I feel like I have been away from home more than I have actually been at home. While I have been hanging out with all my really cool friends, they are going off to bigger and better things, and I guess I feel left out alot. One of my friends, not going to say there name, is persueing a relationship, and sometimes I wish that I could......I could......I could......have something. But their advise for me is just waite and my time will come sooner than I know it. My parents I feel are trying to understand my strugles of trying to slowly become an independent person, but they have to remind me every once in a while that I am not going off by myself for another year. School is starting up... MY SENIOR YEAR!!
I am scared
and I am taking challenging classes... that reminds me I should start on my summer homework for CC English. Lastly I would like to mention how much my friends mean to me and it hurts me to see them strugle. I love everyone so so so very much and I want to let them know that they can count on me to help them out of a rut, or if they just need to talk ( I have to available ears, literally)!!

Girls Camp in a Nut Shell!!

YCL=Youth Camp Leader= ME!!

As YCL's we come up on Monday and everyone else comes on Tuesday. So as we come to our campsite there is a sign that reads... No running water, campsite hasn't had running water for the last 3 months... we were planning on running water. Then the Forest Ranger comes and tells us that due to the increasing fires we are not able to burn fires after Thursday at 12:01 am. And this was all in just the first 10 min.

All the Girls come up the next day and everything seems great untill that night when we all decide to go to our individual tents and 3 skunks are at our picnic bench eating some left over food!! The next day a girl left open her tent and a skunk found its way into there.

Thursday morning rolled around and we were greated by the leaders telling us we were moving to a different campsite because there was a fire 3 miles away that was not controlled at all! That was crazy all in it's self

That night a drunk guy wandered into our camp ground and the priesthood members nicely escorted him back to the campsite. To make sure the girls were all safe the adult leaders slept with there unit of girls, and the neglected to have an adult come and sleep with the YCL's... lets just say we were dead to the world the second our head hit the pillow!! The guys decided that they would take shifts through the night, staying up, and making sure nothing happened. That night a couple skunks and a coyote came wandering into our camp.

The next morning many girls were freaking out, one cried as she told everyone that she had half of a butterfinger in her sleeping bag!! Well, every night you heard coyotes howling and you could hear them circling but never entering a tent!!

My whole experience was crazy but I will deffinately remember my last girls camp to be
AMAZING!!!

When I turn my back...

Yesturday my Mom had to run to drop off Justin at Scouts. So My job is to keep Niko pre-occupied so that he doesn't realize that Mom has left. Niko loves food! I then thought, hey we could make a cake!! As I set him up on the counter I got out the bowl, whisk, eggs, pam spray, pan, water, oil, and box of cake mix (yes I usually make it from scratch, but I wasn't that adventures). Niko helped stir in all the ingrediants, as the batter was ready I sprayed and brushed flour on it. My back was to Niko. He is a little mistieff!! He fastly realized that cake batter tastes good!
