oOoOoOoOoO!!!
Guess what I did today. After my bored streak (read below) Julia, Paul, and I went to Walgreens. I got some facewash, new lip stuff (its fun and pink!), and HAIR DYE!! In february I highlighted my hair reddish/brown color. Seeing as it is 6 months later it had like 3 inch roots. They weren't too pretty and I wanted to look good for the wedding, so I dyed my hair back to its semi original color. Its weird to have such dark hair again! So after my dying escapades we all went down to the Festival of Nations in Tower Grove Park. That was cool because they had all the cool booths and so much food! I got the most delicious beef kabob I have ever had in my life. It was so yummy and saucy, but some of the sauce dripped on my pants which was sad. It was also funny because I saw Paul (my friend Margaret's boyfriend) and his friend Pat there. A little while later I was thinking about how weird it would have been to introduce everyone because I would have been like "This is Julia, my sister, and Paul, her boyfriend. This is ... Paul...." and if you think about it, Pat is the name of Beth's fiance! haha I thought that was pretty funny. Anyway, after that I went home and watched part of "chicken run". Then Bethie got home! Yay! After that we went to Crown Candy with the family. That place is delicious. I love it. Yummy yummy yummy. :) So that has been the rest of my day. I have to go and hang out with the fam now. bye!
so....
So I have recovered from my cleaning craze. I think I still need to restraighten my room. It was so clean and I was being good about keeping it clean and then Julia gave me a whole box of clothes she doesn't want anymore. I am so happy! So many of these clothes I have been eyeing for years!! Yay!! So anyway, I have no room for these new clothes. So I have to reorganize my dresser and closet but I haven't quite gotten around to that yet. So my new clothes are still in the box and on the floor and on my bed. But I have time because the first family to arrive is my Grandma on tuesday around 6:00 pm or so I think. So I have time!
Today I had karate (what else is new?) only now I am getting worried. See the wedding is next weekend. The past few classes I have had I have gotten some lovely bruises (uh oh). So I am worried that they won't go away before the wedding. See I thought they would go away in a week but I got some bruises last friday (as in the 16th or whatever the date was) and they still haven't gone away. So I am a bit worried. I have 2 on my legs and 2 on my arm. I am hoping that no new ones are developing from today's class but i think I have some new ones coming. The ones on the legs don't bother me cause my dress is long and will cover them. The problem - the dress has no sleeves so the ones on my arm will be visible. I hope they won't look too bad next saturday. We shall see. :)
I really have nothing else to say. It's kinda sad that I just spent an entire paragraph talking about bruises. Oh well. I am bored and I have nothing to say and I don't want to bore you anymore. Luv ya!

Cleaning
Oh my goodness!! These past two days have been the cleanest/dirtiest of my life!!! My sister is getting married next weekend (yay!) but family starts arriving on tuesday. Since my mom now works full time she asked Julia and me to clean the house. Do you know how big my house is? I hadn't realized it until now. My goodness we have a ton of stuff (especially a lot of wood). Its crazy! Yesterday we took it easy and I cleaned the front two rooms and Julia did half the downstairs bathroom. That wasn't so bad, but it was tiring because I had to vacuum both rooms, then wash all the wood (basboards, the doors, the windows, etc), then dust all the wooden furninture (there is a lot of that downstairs). So that was tiring. Then today I woke up, watched a half an hour of Ellen (funny show) and then started cleaning. I cleaned the downstairs hall, half of Beth's room (Julia did the other half), the stairs, the upstairs hall, the kitchen, and the living room! I am so tired of cleaning! I never knew how many spiderwebs there were in our house and how dusty things could get. Blah. So now I am going to go take a shower and get all the soap/dust and spiderwebs off me. Cya'll later.

hey hey
So what's up? My weekend was alright. It had its ups and downs. Friday was a crazy day. I got up to volunteer at 10:00. I just went across the street to help them sort a delivery of food donations. Then I got to go home, shower, eat, all that good stuff. Then (mom didn't have to work) Mom and I went to my great-Aunt Katie's house. She is so sweet. She is the sister of my grandma. It is weird because sometimes she talks about when they were younger (my Gma was 10 years older). It is weird for me because i don't remember her at all (I was one when she died). Anyway- Mom and I went out to lunch with her in Kimmswick - a cute little town south of Arnold (where Aunt Katie lives). Then we went back to her house and she showed mom how to sew buttonholes on Pat's vests for the wedding. My mom doesn't have a buttonholer on her sewing machine and you need a special thingy for it. Then I went home, ate some more food, changed and went to work. Work was really boring because Mr. Jarnagin is in New Orleans for the Karate Nationals so two of the classes were cancelled because i can't teach them. So from 5:00-7:30 I sat around doing nothing. I talked to some of the guys (they are all black belts ranging from the ages of 14-17 who hang out at karate on friday nights) but they kept coming and going. Then later Kayti came in early and we played cards for about an hour. I was hoping no one would come in for the last class. Unfortunately 2 kids showed up so we had class. It was a big sparring day so we ran for 5 minutes, did sit ups and push ups, and then sparred. It really sucked because we decided to do first person to 10 or 15 points instead of time limit. So all the fights were long and I don't enjoy sparring. Another thing is that I scored a kick to the head for the first time ever!! I was so proud. (3 points by the way which won me the match!!). But then later i had to sparr with DJ (a 15 yr old black belt) and that sucked because he is really good. He went semi easy on me but it is hard to score on him. He kicked to my head and i didn't really block it too well (oops) and it kinda hit my temple. Its really annoying because i have this thing where if i get hit in the head i start to cry - even if it didn't hurt. So i felt like an idiot (and he felt bad which was funny) so yeah i felt stupid. After all of that I went to a party at Angela's house. That was really fun. Afterwards I gave Ella a ride home and we had a really good talk in the car. I haven't hung out with her much this summer so it felt good to catch up about things.
Saturday - I had karate, and then i was lazy. I helped mom and dad with the porch a little (they are replacing a lot of the wood because it was rotting a little). Then Beth came over and we ordered chinese for dinner. yummy. Then dad and i watched tv while beth and mom worked on wedding stuff.
Sunday - so far church and bread co. yummy yummy. The person who took our order was crabby though - i didn't like her. When we were about to leave i saw a girl from grade school. That was weird because i seriously haven't seen her in about 2 years. She looked basically the same. We didn't talk or anything - just waved.
Oh! another thing on saturday- i got my class schedule and all of that for this year. Oh! hah my locker is #40 and my combination is 19-1-21 in case anyone was wondering. So my schedule is good this year. I got most of the classes i wanted etc... so that is good.
I am tired of talking.... If you go to nerinx and wanna compare schedules email me (Katydidpt05@yahoo.com) or call me or whatever the heck.
cy'all later.

7.7.04
hmmm
so whats up everyone?? I am inherently bored. Boreder than bored. Yep. I have nothin to do. That is nice because i like being able to sit around and not do anything. I just wish that my relaxing time could be spread out more (like into the school year, i wouldn't be so busy etc...). So the 4th of July was fun. My family had a barbeque with Julia, Paul, Hans, Meghan, Mick, Beth, Pat, me, my parents, Marge, and her sister Liz. The food was all really good. Then we headed down to the archgrounds. The Wallflowers (or Wallpaper is what you would call them if you were my mom) were playing. We didn't pay much attention to them because i only know about two of their songs and their bass was up way too high so you couldn't hear them very well anyway. So we played cards and sat on the sheet and well sat. Then we watched the fireworks. They were good but shorter (or at least they seemed to last shorter than usual) and the music wasn't too great. The night before they played really good music (some pirates of the carribbean! (I saw the fireworks from lagniappes - the restaurant i sub at sometimes - and some person had their radio on to the music). The music was only patriotic stuff and some from meet me in st. louie because it is the 100th anniversary of the world's fair. So it was cool but not as cool as i remember from when i was little. Then I went with Julia and her friends and Patrick, Maria, and Nathan to Steak & Shake. The first one we went to was terrible. The waitress didn't come for like a half an hour and then we waited for forever and no one was getting their food so we cancelled our order and then left. Julia, her friends, and I went to another steak and shake. That one was much better. I had a burger and shared a shake with Paul. We got a chocolate shake with hot fudge on top. Its my new favorite treat. Yummy.
Monday I layed around and hung out with Julia and her friends until they left to go back to Omaha. The house feels really empty now that they are gone. So later that night (i didn't have to work - yay!) I went with Patrick, Mia, Tom, and Susanna to St. Ferdinand's youth group. We met some people from there on Project Life and they invited us to come. That was fun and funny. Then when we were driving home it started raining pretty badly. The lightning was awesome though. It was like every second with amazing bolts across the sky. It was so cool. We decided to stop at Taco Bell and get food because we were hungry and also to see it the storm went away. Then we went back to the Vons to pick up Teresa and drop off Tom (he couldn't come to the movie with us) and we went to see Spiderman 2. It was the second time for me but i didn't mind because it is a good movie.
Tuesday I relaxed and sat around (a lot like i am doing now) and then later I went to karate. That was fun. It was a good class. We didn't have to do rolls (yay). instead we did this other thing to work on our punches and kicks. Then we worked on our bunkai (its moves that we take from our kata - a series of moves put in a specific order etc - and puts those moves into defenses and attacks). After that we had to work on our japanese. We learn the japanese words for all of our blocks and strikes and also some polite things and names for some things. Then we sparred. That was hard because we sparred for the last 20 minutes of class. First I sparred with a girl (Maddie) who is 12 or 13 i think for a few minutes. Then I sparred with Tony (14) then with Mr. Jarnagin (my teacher). he was hard because he had these huge pads on his arms to make it harder to block him and also to make it hard to get any punches etc in. This was all in a row so by the end i was pretty tired. then i got to "rest" for a few minutes (where i was working on the punching bags which isn't really resting ;)) then i had to fight Caitlin (17 yr old black belt). That was ok. The reason why all this is hard because it works on endurance so I can't stop attacking or i get pushups so it makes it difficult and very tiring. Then we did sparring 2 against one. Mr. Jarnagin was the one alone. It was ok but I had to go twice in a row and the second time he kicked and caught me right in the stomach and i wasn't prepared so that hurt. But its all good, i just got really tired. That was the end of class (thank god). Overall it was a good class but just really tiring and really sweat inducing. Then I went home and watched some tv and ate. Then i went to the vons and hung out with PJ waiting for Mia and Sita to get home. Nathan came over too but he left with Mia to go to a party. So it was PJ me and Sita. We did nothin! haha we sat around and talked and then watched tv and then talked more. It was fun. Then I went home and slept.
This morning I have done nothing. I have layed around, watched some tv. all the normal morning activities. ;) Well, I am tired of writing and i have nothing else to say. Sorry this one wasn't too funny. I am not hyper at the moment. Blah. Blah Blah.
nothin to say...........
bye
