My boyfriend broke his leg 2 Sunday’s ago and it was during a dirt bike race. He got a 2nd place trophy for one class he raced in, and for the other he was in 1st and crashed on the last race, last lap, and even the last jump. He would of gotten a 1st place trophy if he didn’t crash. He hit the last jump wrong and landed on his head and somehow in the tumble broke his leg. It was his femer bone and he also fractured his hip. He thought it was just a charlie horse so he thought he just needed to walk it off but his leg was facing the other way so walking it off was not an option. They didn’t have an ambulance there for some reason (when there is like always an ambulace there) so they had to put him on some sort of a stretcher and carry him to the road and the ambulace arrived like 20 mins later. He had to have a rod put into his leg to hold the bone together. Breaking his leg was horrible but it made it worst that 1. it was the first race of the season so now he cant race the rest of the year and 2. his senior prom was the saturday after. So we had to miss prom and it sucked really…really…really bad   

I dislike most girls… they dont make sense. One day they are all buddy-buddy with you and the next they are talking bad about you behind your back. Sometimes they even make up lies about you just to have something to talk about to other people. Or they will be happy for you when you like someone, then go and hangout with them and rub it in your face. I really hate the ones that don’t even know you… and still talk bad about you for no reason. I dont have a lot of close girl friends but the ones I have a good ones… i’ve had to let a few not so good ones go in the past and im glad I did!

I remember the night my boyfriend asked me to be his girlfriend and I finally said yes. He waited 8 months to date me and asked me out twice before, but I kept saying no because I wasent fully over a different guy who I was "a thing" with for 3 years before I knew Josh. Josh actually sent me a message on myspace that said "so when are you gonna go out with me?" and I didn’t see it till after I alrady asked him… but that night on the phone I was like "wanna play the question game?" and hes like "sure" and so we asked a few questions and then finally when I was going to say "will you be my boyfriend?" HE asked first and said "when will you finally date me?" and so I replied "now" and he was like "really?" and i said "yea!" so it was pretty special. I was really excited to finally say yes and to finally be over Kyle, and I have been dating Josh for almost 2 years now!

I imagin myself visiting this "two bedroom, utilities not included, no pets" apartment and being totally turned off by it. The neighbors to the left sound like they have millions of kids who like to run into and bang on the walls. The people above stomp on the floor like they are practicing some kind of dance. The neighbors to the right are a couple that fights all the time, ocassionally the police get involved. I even heard one time the man came out on a stretcher and went to the hospital. I also dislike that you can’t have pets. I love dogs and cats and Id like to have one of each when I get a place. Also the window’s don’t open so when its getting to hot in here what am I supposed to do? Fan myself? The water doesn’t look clean and the kitchen floor has many stains. Since utilities are not included I don’t feel like paying for gross looking water. I don’t think that one sounds nice… lets look for another I think to myself as I cross that ad out.

Last week I was a busy girl. It was my boyfriends birthday so Wednesday (his birthday) we went out to eat at Paridiso. Then Thursday was his party with his family so we went to his place, ate some food and some ice cream cake, visited, and he opened his gifts. He really wanted a crotch rocket from his parents as a combination of a birthday and graduation present but they didn’t get him one. If they didn’t get him that he also told them he wants a 32" flat screen tv. He said it would be awesome to play x-box on, but they didn’t get him that either. They got him a benelli shotgun instead. He was pretty happy with it.

Then came Friday, unlike high school we had school and I had my classes in Thief River that day so he drove there with me. He drove around and found stuff to do to keep him busy for 2 hours while I was in class and then when I got out we went to the casino! It was really awesome i’ve never been in one before and although I lost money (only $5) I still had fun. Josh walked out with $50 more then what he went in there with that day! He was so excited that we went back on Saturday. He lost $20 that day and I lost $10.

Then Sunday was just a relaxing easter. It was a pretty good/fun week and weekend for us.

A few years ago I was sitting at home with nothing to do, bored out of my mind… so I decided to go on a bike ride. I liked riding my brothers bike better because his had pegs and was lower. So I was just going to ride around the neighborhood for a while. I thought I seen my friend down the street so I started peddeling faster to go say hi. Out of nowhere the chain falls off, locks the bike up, and I go flying over the handle bars. I face planted it into the street (I wasen’t wearing a helmet) and slid. I woke up laying on the road (im not sure how long I was out) and I knew I was hurt. I stood up and was bleeding from the mouth. I had braces at the time but I knew something was messed up and I was hoping it was just the braces, and not my teeth. My jeans were ripped and I had several scrapes and a big gash on my legs (thankfully I was wearing jeans and a sweatshirt so it wasent so horrible). The bike was on the street probably like 10 feet away so I walked over, grabbed the bike, and walked home, which was only 2 blocks away from where the crash took place. I got home and my mom comes out yelling "why did you take that bike? its been having problems with the chain! Do you have a bloody nose?" then I took my hand away from my mouth and my step-dad yells "Get in the car!" to me and "Take her to the ER, ill meet you there" to my mom. So I got in the car and the whole time my mom was driving I was crying saying "Im going to be ugly for the rest of my life" and she just kept saying no your not, you will be ok. (I think I was crying more over the fact of knowing ill have a bunch of scars then crying over pain). When we got to the ER we didn’t have to wait… They got me a room and cut off the leg of my jeans that had the big gash into shorts. Then I had to get an x-ray of my knee and hand (becasue one of my hands got all scratched up and eventually I lost a fingernail). X-rays came out ok so then I had to get a catscan to make sure I didn’t have any brain damage. That came out ok to so then I got an IV and a special dentist guy to come in and literally push my teeth back in. I was in the ER for a total of 5 hours. Then I had to get a stint put on my teeth for 3 months, and I could only eat soft food like pudding, soup, ice cream, and yogurt for 6 weeks… which really sucked becasue then I never felt full so I was always hungry and it hurt to eat so I didn’t even really want to eat. Nowdays I look the same, I just have a couple scars on my face and that big gash on my knee turned into a big scar but all in all im okay!

100! 2 of the 3 bridges being closed from GF to EGF…

For Spring Break I am going to San Antonio, Texas!! Im pumped!! My mom, step dad, and siblings live there. I have 2 brothers, Tyler (13) and Logan (3) and a sister named Ashley (9). Im so excited to see all of them, but im kind of bummed becasue Todd (my step dad) wont be there. He is over seas right now becasue he is in the military. This is like his 3rd time being over seas to, but I think it will be his last. He has to stay there for a year and he is halfway done. He got to take a 2 week visit not to long ago, but he stayed in Texas with my mom and siblings for most of it. He did come up north though to see his kids (my step siblings) in Detroit Lakes, but weather was to bad so he couldent make it to Grand Forks to see my grandma and myself.

My friend Ashley is comming with me to Texas, so I wont be alone. I dont like flying alone. I had to once when I was in 3rd grade when I lived in Colorado and I was the only one flying up to Grand Forks to see my dad and grandparents. I remember I had to sit in the first row so the flight attendant lady could help me out and take care of me and I asked her "When can I listen to my brittney spears CD?" (since your not supposed to use electronics until your all the way up in the air) and she said "I will let you know when you can" with a big smile on her face. Then once we were flying she did her announcement and added on "and if any of you have brittney spears CD’s you are now able to listen to them" …I thought that was the coolest thing ever!!

But anyways, im just super excited to go to Texas for spring break!

One of my most favorite memories was when my play won at my high school. I was in theatre class and unlike all the other girls, I wasent considered a "theatre geek". I liked the class, thought it was fun, had fun being in it but wasent SO into it that my life revolved around theatre. I had some creative ideas but I mostly kept them to myself. So our class had to write a play and the younger theatre groups would be the cast in our plays. They had to be around 20 mins long, and we had to plan EVERYTHING!! What our play would be about, title, characters, script, lighting, sound, stage set up…EVERYTHING! not gonna lie it was pretty stressful, and I didn’t think it would all come together… but it did!

So my play was called "Clue". I based it off of my favorite board game and the movie Clue. "Who killed who with what weapon in which room…" that kind of stuff. So after we watched short videos of the younger students who could possibly in our class we picked our people, started picking characters for them, and started writing our scripts. Then came practise. Everyone added in to what my script was and it was comming together so well, I was getting very excited. Im pretty sure like nothing I planned stayed the same because these students had such great ideas.

Then the preformance night came. Family, friends, and other students filled the audience. I knew I wanted police to come into the play at the end and there was two handicap students that needed to be in a play so I picked them to be my police officers. They rocked it!! Everyone else did so well and nobody messed up I was so proud of them… and all the other girls in my class were blown away at how good my play was. We had to split up into two nights and the night my play preformed, I won best director AND best play (of that night) THEN I found out that there was an overall best play out of BOTH nights and guess who won that!? ME!! I was pumped.. all these girls doubted me and thought my play would be the worst becasue I didn’t get completly into theatre and I won the best overall play!!

I think I proved myself in the class after that!

I just joined a group on facebook and the name of the group was:
"When I Push You Away… Don’t Leave… It’s Times Like That I Need You To Stay"

I fully agree with this quote. I think we push people away when we are mad or sad or frustrated and it’s really these times when we need people (especially our loved ones) to cheer us up, make us happy, and calm us down. We shouldn’t hold these feelings inside we need to let them out to someone who will listen, so we can’t push the people who will actually listen away… we NEED them to stay!
