It's been awhile, hasn't it?

Wow! I don't know how long it's been since I've posted! I'm so sorry guys, but life keeps taking my mind off this blog and I've just been trying to focus on school. I'll try updating you on some things that have been happening.

It's springtime now. I've already been through my allergy problems, sore throat, runny nose and all that. Wasn't a very enjoyable time, but at least I'm all better now. You'd think it'd be warm outside right now, well, yesterday it was quite lovely out so I spent time outside. Today the sky is all darkened and it's all wet and yucky around, so don't think I'm gonna go out today.

So...have I read any interesting books lately? Not to say I haven't. I am reading this one book, Dragonspell at the moment, but I'm no where near being done seeing as it has 50 chapters plus an epilogue. I still need to get the second book in the series so I can start that one after I'm done with the first one. I like books that have sequels, that way I'll be able to continue more of an epic story. I hate endings.

Oh yeah! PEOPLE! I have seen The Hobbit! And I've gotta say, I've forgot how much I loved adventures in Middle Earth. That was such an enjoyable film. Yeah some people complain that the CGI effects were choppy and such, but I don't really care. I loved the whole movie! It was casted perfectly and hearing that good old music again sent chills up my spine. I loved the rendition of the Misty Mountains song in the credits. I might want to get the sheet music for that on my guitar.

 I'm outshining my older sister. Why? Because I've already decided what college I'm going to and I'm only fourteen. Yeah. It's the same college my brother is at. I've been up there when me and my dad were bringing him home for spring break. It was neat seeing a campus in action. The hilarious thing that happened is when we were trying to locate my brother, my dad was on the phone trying to find out where he was, and I looked across the street and saw some guy talking on the phone while carrying a suitcase. My first thoughts "Oh he's going home for spring break too?" and then I realized "Oh wait that's my brother!". So yeah, lol. And we had lunch at a Steak and Shake. Very tasty steak burgers. I actually ordered two, but believe me, I instantly regretted it later seeing as my stomach felt like exploding. Ugh.

Anywho, I will be going to The Wilds this year. That's a summer camp up in the Blue Ridge Mountains somewhere. Normally I'd be going to the Anchorage camp, but I've been there two years in a row, so I wanted a change of pace this year. My mom also went to The Wilds when she was a teenager. Yeah, that camp has been there awhile. But they have lots of awesome stuff there! I looked on the website, and wow, they have a zip line, some huge inflatable thing that launches you into the water when someone else jumps on the other end, and lots of other things. The only downside is that I'm going in July, all by myself. My younger sister is going a discounted week in June, and my older sister is going a discounted week in August. So I'm a little nervous. But excited.

Let's see...what else is happening...oh yes. I'll be going to a friend's wedding on Saturday, and my mom's baby shower is next week.
