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...........
