PHEW...

Finally! Thanksgiving break is HERE! Well, not offically, I have to go half day tomorrow for Grandparents day.

I haven't posted in a while, so this is going to be pretty long.

Last weekend I went to the GSUSA 52nd national convention, which was also celebrating the 100th anniversary of Girl Scouts! I was choosen to go from GSSJC, which is my Girl Scout Council. I had to skip two days of school, but it was well worth it, as we stayed in the Hilton and got Starbucks everyday! Whoohoo! :)

We took sessions ranging from personalities, to robotics, to leadership, to college application, and the like. Everything was very enjoyable and I learned alot. But best of all was the exhibit hall, where all the vendors would set up the stations and tell you about whatever it is that they do.

I met so many interesting people, including one group of Girl Scouts from New York. We were sitting at the same table during lunch, and happened to start talking. They said I had a southern accent and asked where I was from. I told them I was from Texas, and they gasped.

One of them giggled and asked me to do 'the cowboy call.' At first I was very confused. What is a 'cowboy call?' Then it hit me.

So, ratherly loudly I said, 'YEEEEEEEHHHHAAAAWWWWW! HOWDY Y'ALL,' and they cracked up laughing! In my opinion, I DO NOT have a southern accent.

The convention was great! I met tons of new people, heard some AMAZING speeches, and took some pics with some really cool people! Some of the keynote speakers were Robin Roberts, Vernice 'Flygirl' Armour, Katie Couric, and Mo ( Can't spell her real name so I put her nickname) Coleman, from high school muiscal.

This past weekend my bro had a basketball tournment, and I had the Mariner Boat Parade work weekend. Both the girls and the boys teams won all of their games on Thursday, but lost both on Saturday :(

My Mariner friends and I glued lights, and cut paper and chicken wire, and duct taped ourselves to heck this entire weekend. But the boat decorations look really good!

All in all I've had a busy few weeks, tomorrow is G-parents day so we won't be doing much in school. Afterwards were going to have lunch and see Tower Heist. Just looked up the trailer a minute ago, it looks HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UNDEAFTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YEP THAT'S RIGHT, OUR FOOTBALL TEAM WENT UNDEFEATED! :)

Thanks to all of the AWESOME people who made this years team happen! I love you guys.

I told myself before the game that I wouldn't cry, but I broken down and wept anyways. That's why I'm not posting pictures, because I have makeup and such running down my face...

After the game we went to Fuddruckers and had a great time laughing and recalling all of our favorite moments through the year.

At halftime, our head administrator called out all of the high schoolers and said a few special things about each of us. We got flowers and rounds of applause... Can't wait until homeocming next year! I couldn't wear my Mum during the game because I was running around being crazy busy, but I hung it on the fence next to a sign with my bro's name in it.

Saturday night the 9th and 10th graders all went out to a super nice restuaraunt and had dinner. Later we walked over to starbucks and had coffee and hot chocolate. It was super fun, hopefully next year we can do something just as nice! :)

P.S. The word of the day is undefeationationism!

Football, football, football, and more...

Ok, so last week our boys beat Tomball Christian AGAIN! 76-41, that's the highest score we've ever had! :) And this week our boy trucked it out to Chester, TX (check where it is on google) to play the Yellow Jackets.

My bro got to start as center, because his quarterback is back (he's been out most of the season with a foot injury) and the starting center was sick most of the week. Plus the coaches thought it would be good to play second team, to see who can do what for next year's team.

It was a long and rainy drive, but we made it there and back, after receiving no bacon on my BACON BURGER! Whatever. I still had homework to do when we got home, and I was already in a bad mood from standing in the rain for about 2 to 3 hours.

So I came in Friday morning and poured out my sob story to my Biology teacher, and turns out I wasn't the only one! We got Admin involved so hopefully nothing like this will happen again! :)

In the meantime I've been bust making crafts and such for te finally pep rally on Wednesday and our final game on Friday. (Lord I'm praying for continued sanity now...). My sister is already driving me crazy with all of the cheers and chants the little cheerleaders get to do with the big ones! Ugh, but thanks Mrs. Hulbert for the bow, it's super cute!

Basketball practice has started, and I'm still out of shape but not like last year!

Went to my friend's Halloween party last night. She made me watch Scream 4, it scared to crap out of me! Never again am I watching horror movies, sorry, but they are NOT for me.

Football

YAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOHOO! :)

OK, so we're now 4-0! Whoohoo. My bro got three stickers from the game, but coaches haven't gone through the film so he might get a few more for a tackle or two. He had an amazing game and our grandparents came! :)

My book should be here sometime. Wednesday is Yearbook picture retakes so I think 'm getting my hair cut tomorrow.

My friend had to put her cat down today :( Please pray for her family and especially her younger sisters who are having a hard time dealing with this.

I have offically lost one game on words with friends, and I'm about to lose two more! Shoot, this is not going good. Half the boys on the football team can and are kicking my Butt! That is sad....
