Look Who It Is!

Well well well! Look who decided to show up! I'm back (obviously) from my pathetically negligent "vacation". on our agenda for today is....

-My Stitches (OMG!)
-The Party (ARGH!/w00t!)
uuhhhhhh what else?? OH YEAH!
-Rock the River

I went up to Alley's cabin, and it was fun-other than the stitches. Although I WILL get an awesome scar to show off from it. Don't worry. I've already gotten the speech from everyone about how to avoid the scarring, but whatever. I'll do what I want. So ANYWAYS. We decided that we were going to hike across the island that her cabin is on, so we got halfway-ish, and then we went towards the shoreline. We guessed which way was closer to the cabin, and ended up hiking the long way around. We stopped periodically to rest and climb on the bluffs that were all over the fringes of the island. We saw a doe, got eaten by mosquitos (only a little though) and destroyed our legs on all the branches n junk that littered the ground. We continued to hug the shoreline, so we encountered some areas where the only way to keep going without backtracking and bushwhacking, was to climb up the rocks. We kept going and going and going, and then one time when Alley wanted to stop and climb (because "climbing is her favorite part!") she climbed down (so she could climb back up) and my brain said "Go for it! You like climbing too you know!" and the other -smart-part of me was like "DONT DO IT! What are you going to do if someone gets hurt?! And PLUS, she's about 40 pounds lighter than you are! What holds for her, isn't necessarily going to hold for you!" But do I EVER listen to the sensible side of my brain? Nope. That's probably why I'm so accident prone. As I started climbing down, there was a very large, sharp and also....LOOSE rock, which slid down, scraped one leg, and then got caught on my foot (since it was big, it was heavy, and it hurt) then, instead of moving the leg that wasn't caught BEFORE i dislodged the rock, I kept my leg right where it was. So the rock went down and chopped my leg open and then caught on my other foot! then, I climbed down (that rock was a major handhold since it was a big rock.) then climbed up another area. My leg was bleeding a bunch ----> ------> ------> fast forward through some hiking, we came to a cabin and got a couple bandaids to hold my leg over , the chick went and got the trashcan for the paper towels I used to wipe my leg some, and she was all like "hehe...blood these days you know..." ...um EXCUSE ME Ms. Rudeness? I would've thrown away my own papertowels WITHOUT you making your stupid comment. I don't expect random strangers to handle bloody paper towels that I used, when I'm perfectly capable of throwing them away!----->------>-------->fast forward some more...we got back to the cabin (as my leg continued to bleed) and Alley was freaking out and her brother and his friend were trying to prod at my leg, and then we (more like they... I could've handled it myself.) woke up their dad and he bandaged my leg. It didn't seem like they(doctors) could stitch it, so we just bandaged it, and checked on it. That night he decided that we'd go in to the hospital to get it checked out. Just in case. I got 9 stitches, and some fun antibiotics that I had to take 4x a day. So for ten days I couldn't bike or do cross country. Ten days later, I'm rid of them, and I'm going back to cross country tomorrow.

NEXT!!

The party is saturday, and its gonna rock! but the thing is, Mark and Lauren still haven't given me a definate answer, and I need to know by tomorrow in order to clean and plan food and stuff like that. But it will be fun anyways -if you ignore all of my sisters friends that will also be there.

NEXT!!

I went to Rock the River (It's like a smaller Sonshine) and I saw concerts and stuff and it was fun! But the thing that wasn't fun was waiting in line for two hours to get ONE piece of pizza. The food vendors were slow and stopped serving food whenever this one guy got up to give some stupid sermon. This guy came up about every hour, and he talked for a LONG time. So Everyone in line was super annoyed. I almost missed the Flyleaf concert because of the line. But I didn't so it was ok.

So now that I'm back, I'm going to try and stay on top of it. Even during sports and the school year and stuff.
So I'll ttyl (type to ya later)...

Awkward much?

Well ladies and gentlemen, the day has come again where we share our awkward stories and laugh (and cringe) with each other! This event is hosted by the lovely Tova, so follow the rules! (Post, link back, then add your linkey to her list and all that fun stuff)
So this awkwardness takes place not long ago, as in like winter break ish, so December. My sisters and dad were in tow, and that causes the awkwardness...just you wait.

It was getting to be towards the end of winter break, and it was after Christmas, and my psycho dad insisted that we take a TWO DAY DRIVE all the way back from North Carolina IN THE WINTER! That includes winter snowy storms and all of that fun crap. So anyways, I was stressed, because I had an appointment that I REALLY needed to get to. That appointment was tubing with my conference friends....aka Mark and Lauren. Luckily we got back in time. So when I got to the snow tubing place, I gave Mark a ring to find out where he was...and where the tubing was as a matter of fact...I'd never been tubing there before...so anyways, once I got to this hill thing, (Lauren wasn't there yet) there was one person in a red coat standing, and they were standing at the top of a snow packed, icy, and fairly steep slope. I immediately (ok, well not immediately. It took me like 2 seconds) figured out who the person was (Mark) , and suddenly that person was barreling down the icy hill. I, being the genius I am, went forward like 4 steps (with my stride, its quite a bit.) and got a flying tackle hug from Mark. (No, for those of you that don't know, he's NOT my boyfriend [not that I would object if he was...I mean, I only like him... :} ] he's just my friend) The hug lasted a couple (or like 5) seconds. We kinda spun a little bit (like a half turn people. NOT 'picking someone up and spinning' type thing) because he was kinda to the side, and the path was icy. Trust me. This doesn't help the awkwardness. I don't know about him, but it was kinda a body slam, and I needed a couple seconds to recover. This is where the awkwardness really starts to set in. My dad and sisters were still behind me, and I could feel my sisters gawking, and my dad trying to burn a hole in my back with his eyes. That was REALLY awkward, because even though we were just exchanging out of breath 'hi's' (we did just sorta body slam mind you!) and recovering, my family was staring at me like we were making out. Mark told me when we were all going back up the hill that he was trying to knock me over...he nearly succeeded, and I have a feeling that would've REALLY made the awkwardness worse.

So that will be all for now.

Oh the awkwardness...
-Helcar :P

Yo dawg!

What's up people?!

So I'm pretty bored right now, and I'm trying to learn hula hoop tricks. Yes. I know. I'm weird. Whatever though. So anyways, I have some very important news!!! The official party date is the 22nd, and I'm currently trying to recruit people for the date. So Alley, does that date work for you? I'm not sure of the times yet, but its probably from like 2pm-10pm (that's the generic time frame since we don't have an official one yet)
It should be pretty fun. We'll have music and slip n slides and maybe a movie! Oh. and lotsa people. Hehe...Hopefully my friends can behave. Yes that means you know who (what is this?! Harry Potter?!) is probably gonna be there. I'm not gonna tell anyone (well, except for the blogiverse, and Victoria ruined the suprise when I was talking to Clara, so she knows too...)

So camp was pretty fun, I did sailing, and we sailed keelboats (big ones) and sunfish (little ones).

I don't really know what else to say right nows though, so lets leave it at that.

Maybe I'll think of more stuff soon...
-Helcar -.- (still bored)
