:[

I have officially hit a writers block. I have no idea what to blog about. School is boring, nothing is going on at church, and soccer season hasn't started. I'm bored...and have nothing to write about. I'm not one for complaining but i really do wish i was more exciting ha ha.

quirks

The RULES:

1. Link the person who tagged you...no one tagged me i just wanted to play :] hehe

2. Post these rules.

3. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours.

4. Tag 6 fellow bloggers by linking them



1) I have to repeat something out loud 99.9% of the time so ill remember it. Like if theres a joke or a quote or a saying i want to remember i have to say out loud for me to remember it. On a VERY rare occasion ill remember without repeating it out loud.



2) If you verbally tell me to remember something (even if i repeat it out loud) i wont remember what you asked 5 seconds later guarnteed....ask my mom. She can tell you how many times she would tell me to get the broom and i would come back with a rag, im not even kidding. If you verbally tell me to remember something its almost guarnteed ill forget in 5 seconds.



3) I tend to laugh way to loud on accident sometimes. For example, today in health class my friend Alex knocked over his desk and i laughed REALLY LOUD! It wasnt even that funny i just laugh to loud on accident and that bugs me about myself.



4) Along with laughing to loud, i can talk to loud. I dont really know why but the longer i talk the louder i seem to get. Lunch time is the worst cause its loud anyway so you have to speak up, but then by then end of lunch im almost yelling. Its kinda funny all my friends make fun of me :]



5)I cant walk or run straight. If i think about walking or running straight, i end up tripping on myself cause im focused on walking straight. I remember when i would be running at soccer practice my coach would yell at me to run straight.



6) I love wearing funky clothes or accessories. I have some BRIGHT neon blue skinny jeans. I love them and i practically died when i saw them. I also have these cool green 80's sun glasses that i wear ALL THE TIME. I just about cried when i had to live without them for a week when i left them in mississippi. :]


im pretty sure everyone has been tagged, and considering i wasnt tagged and i just took it off someones blog...feel free to steal!!! haha

School

So school is officially back in. I'm officially a sophomore. Most importantly, i can officially pick on the freshies :] haha not in a mean way. You know how theres always one person you like to mess with but its not ever mean its just...messing with them? That's the kinda mess with I'm talking about hhaaa. I also decided that I'm going to find some random freshman and make them my best friend. Considering school has just started i don't have much to say about it. my first class of the day is mythology, and I'm thinking that's going to be fun Ive always liked myths and stuff and in fact the odyssey is on my list of good books! My second class is health/drivers ed. 4 words...STAY OFF THE ROADS. until i know how to drive CORRECTLY i would advise you drive very cautiously :] I'm not that bad I'm just not that good either haha. my third class is English. I'm sure in going to have fun in there i have alot of friends in that class, and the teacher seems nice. On top of all of that we get to read Julius Cesar which I'm excited about because i like Shakespeare...do i strike you as a Shakespeare person? :] haha My last class of the day is geometry and so far im doing ok. I have a few friends in there and we help each other out with the stuff we dont get when were doin classwork or were working on our homework. I think if i juat stay focused ill be able to get a good grade in ther class. As the year goes on ill have more to write about obviously but for now....its boring!


p.s. sorry for the messy-ness i wrote this in a hurry its almost 10 on a school night and i need to take a shower and get some sleep :] i promise better bloggin in the future

Mississippi here i come

So my parents failed to tell me that i was going to Mississippi from 5 o'clock tonight until Saturday morning when i would be leaving from Mississippi to baton rouge for a temple trip. Its not that i don't want to go to Mississippi its just that they didn't tell me until the night before. I was hoping that maybe i would be able to hang out with some of my friends on Friday for a friends birthday. If i would of known i was going to be in Mississippi i wouldn't have even told them i would ask my parents. I know I'm only 15 and i cant always do everything i would like to but there are some things i would like to know about a few days in advanced, like this trip. On top of not knowing that i was going, its just my dad, Blake, and me going. Its not even the whole family. I sometimes wonder why parents wait to tell us stuff until the last minute but then they get mad at us for telling them stuff at the last minute. THAT, my dear friends, is an unanswered question in my house.

I MADE HANNAH A BLOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Word to the wise...

Considering that i dont often have random thoughts of 'wisdom' i guess you could call it i like to write it down when i do. I was sittin here at the computer just looking for something to do, a game, a quiz, or even just an article i could read, out of no where i got this thought. what if everyone really did care? I mean like, what if EVERYONE in the world was like the few people that want to make everything right, and actually try to. I kinda wish i could be one of those people that travles around the world tryin to save a river that no one has ever heard of but they know it will make a differene to SOMEONE if they do. Why cant everyone have the same drive and compassion as those few people that dare to do things that are completly crazy but completly sane at the same time? What if we all did one thing everyday that wouldnt benifit us in anyway, but by blessings alone? Would the world be a better place? Most deffinately. Would people start havin sudden changes of heart to help someone because they were simply inspired by someone elses good deeds? It wouldnt surprise me. I wanna be one of those people that retires and goes around the world helping others and makin changes for the better. I want to be a modern hero. Im goin to make it a point now at the age of 15 to make a difference in the world. Even if its a small difference that goes unnoticed or a big differnce that shakes the world...im goin to do it. I dont quite know how i will yet but i do know im goin to. It may not happen today and it may not happen this month but i can promise you this, i will somehow help someone in need.

EFY!!!

First off i want to say efy was hands down the most spiritual experience i have ever had. I had the best time of my life in 5 short days. The first day was registration. My cousins and i signed in, got our t-shirts, our efy handbooks, wristbands (which i still have on), efy CD, and name tag. After we signed in we got to walk around the church for a little bit. As i was walking around with my cousin one boy thought i was someone named Mena and called for me. I turned around and introduced myself. I met my first friend who I'm still in touch with. His name is Jordan, and he lived about 20 minutes from the efy church building. Along with him my cousin and i also met his 4 friends. Tyler (who i still talk to), Broc, Stratton (i still talk to him too), and Taylor. They all lived in Ogden and had known each other since they were little. We hung out with them until it was time to meet our group. We got into our group and got to know each other there were 9 of us 10 if you included our counselor. We had a fun time the whole week we got to be like a little family. We met with our group twice a day once in the morning and once at the end of the day. We told each other everything, and our lessons always ended up with us talkin about which boys we liked haha. Our counselor's name was Jessica, she was 19 so she was pretty much one of us, we treated her as more of a best friend then a leader :] After we met our group, we got to meet our company. Our company consisted of two girl groups and one big guy group. When we met our company we had our two friends from earlier in our company, Tyler and Broc. Once everyone was situated everyone had to stand up and introduce themselves and tell where they were from. For the most part everyone was from Utah. We had one person from Las Vegas, one from Oregon, and one from Arizona. Of course i lived the farthest away...when everyone heard i was from Alabama, they thought i was kiddin but as i talked more they believed me cause of my accent :] After everyone introduced themselves i made some more friends, Alex from Utah (I'm still in touch with him), Bret from Arizona (i still talk to him too), and Nate from Oregon. They were all brothers, not biological obviously, they were all half brothers. Through out the week i hung out with them alot and my cousin hung out with the other group of boys more. Later that night we had family home evening. We had a lesson with our company and we moved over to an open field next to the church for games. We played alot of games and just basically had alot of fun. Tuesday we had classes, those were fun. In one of the classes Broc, Tyler, Jordan, Stratton, and Taylor hung out with us. We were drawing pictures in our little note books the whole time lol. Later that night we had a dance. I was dancing with someone when he asked where i was from. When i told him i was from Alabama he freaked out and said "OOH YOUR ALABAMA GIRL?!?!?" thus my nickname was born :] I later found out that my friend Alex had told everyone to call me that, i didnt care i like havin nicknames. Its funny though cause every now and then i would dance with someone who knew me but i had no idea who they were just for the fact that i was the only person in all of efy from Alabama. Wednesday was classes again. During free time on Wednesday was tryout time for the variety show. I was sitting on a couch with my cousin when my friends Alex and Nate came and asked me to try out with them. so i got up and started walkin with them. They told me that all i had to do was introduce the band and then snap my fingers with their cousin Stephanie. We walked into the room and i introduced the band and moved to the back to snap my fingers. After they were done singing their song the counselors asked where i was from so i told them and then they said ok well what if you introduce half of the people that are goin to be performing? So i walked out of the tryout room introducing half the people only intending to introduce one haha. Thursday was Sunday dress day. The classes were so much fun and very spiritual. I learned alot about the For Strength of Youth too. Later that day we made knit hats for a charity. My cousin and i had to start over a couple of times because we messed it up but we finally got it write towards the end. After lunch was the variety show so i had to eat lunch fast and get to the gym so we could go through the show one time. When it was time for the show everyone started to poor in and sit down. The show went well and everyone did a good job. We had another dance later that night, and just like the dance earlier in the week, people knew me but i didnt know them. As the dance came to a close one of my friends Meghan picked up her phone only to find that the screen was cracked. She flipped out...it was kinda funny though, not the fact her phone was cracked but how she was flippin out. The next day, Friday, was the last day of efy. In my opinion Friday was the best day out of the week. We had 2 long classes then lunch and then one last class. Afterwards we all met in the gym for the closing assembly. We had a slide show and we sang the efy medley. As soon as we said the closing prayer i broke down. I just couldnt stop crying to save my life. I didnt want efy to end i had met so many people and had so many good experiences. I was very sad to leave i didnt want to. My cousin and i were invited to go to this place called Jakes over the top to hang out with some people from efy. My cousin didnt want to go but i did so she went home. I stayed at Jakes for i little while and hung out with my friends until i had to go. It was another sad goodbye BUT i didnt cry :] i was all dry i didnt have anymore tears left in me! As i already said efy was hands down the most spiritual experience i have ever had in my whole life. I dont think anything will ever be able to top it. I take that back NOTHING will ever top it. Im excited about goin again next year, im already looking forward to it.
