redo!

you cant really see that poem so imma try this again!

Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round,
or listened to the rain slapping on the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly’s erratic flight,
or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down, don’t dance so fast,
time is short, the music won’t last.

Do you run through each day on the fly,
when you ask “How are you?”, do you hear the reply?

When the day is done, do you lie in your bed,
with the next hundred chores running through your head?

You better slow down, don’t dance so fast,
time is short, the music won’t last.

Ever told your child, we’ll do it tomorrow,
and in your haste, not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch, let a good friendship die,
‘cause you never had time to call and say, “Hi!”?

You better slow down, don’t dance so fast,
time is short, the music won’t last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere,
you miss half the fun of getting there.

When you worry and hurry through your day,
it’s like an unopened gift thrown away.

Life isn’t a race, so take it slower,
hear the music before your song is over.

~ Slow Dance, a poem by David L. Weatherford ~

ok.

so its been summer for a little more than a week. and ive been procrastinating posting. ive been telling myself that i really had too. but i just kept putting it off cause i still havent done much. i finished school last wednesday. and the next day [thursday] i went to my little sisters honors day and then they had this baseball game and cookout thing after that at the school. it was so sweet she got valedvictorian of the 5th grade and she started crying. and my mom started crying. and then my mom got parents award and she started crying again [weve been at the school for 10 years, well were at that school now. too weird to think about not being there anymore. even if ive been gone for a long time, ive still been visiting] anyway, after all that, katlyn, caitlin, faith, and i went and saw thor and then went to katlyns for a little while but i had to leave early cause i had to come babysit my little sisters.  then i had church on sunday and didnt leave the house again for the rest of the week except for tanning [no use] and taking out the trash. but yesterday [saturday]  i went to church to set up for a a dinner for all the confirmands [ill have to explain that later in case] and i was so excited for it cause all my friends are in there [im a year older than 9 of em and 2 of em started late] and so i confirmed last year and got to help them all through this. and then today i went to church again and they did the actual confirmation. then fter church i went to red robin. so, i spent a week laying on the couch being a lazy bum. with about 3 days of something semi-interesting.
also today i might add i finally got those books i won in the mail. she also sent team tamani and team david tatoos. [im 100% team tamani by the way (: ]. and the books were wrapped in bubble wrap. so im full of happpiness (: and hopefully soo i shall go shopping. bigstuf in 29 days. carowinds on june 18 with a bunch of awesome christion bands [a few being Skillet, Bob Lenz, Jeremy Camp, Tenth Avenue North, Family Force 5, Anthem Lights, and Manic Drive]. vbs june 6-10. and cape sand blas on my bday for a week (: look for positive not negative (: love y'all!!

sup my homies.

cant make my thoughts flow properly. so thoughts put into bullets this time.

• i won some books (: and not just any books. Wings, Spells, and Illusions. you know those books i posted on a week or so ago. yep, i won the contest. cause i am just that awesome (: and now im trying to decide how to have them signed so i can email Aprilynne Pike and then get 'em. 
• tryin to decide what to wear tomorrow and wishing i had more summer clothes. man i need some money and to go shopping.
• eoct's this week. and for all of ya'll not in georgia that is basically exams. standardized testing. i missed monday[math] so now i have to figure out how im going to make that up. [i stayed home cause i had a migraine. stupid devils those things are.] and ive got bio tomorrow. im worried about that cause science has never been my strong point. 
• boys are so much drama. they just are. who likes who is so hard to keep up with. then youve gotta try and impress the guy you like. and carefully put downs the one you dont. its so much work. and its getting pretty old.
• wondering about my birthday and getting my permit since i leave for the beach that day, and come back from bigstuf[il have to remember to post something about bigstuf. not sure if ive ranted about it before. but if i havent youll get an earful. in a good way.]
• had a red bull for the first time today. it has no effect on me, as most energy drinks dont.
• i need to watch harry potter 6 and 7. as well as re-read the series. watched 1-5 last weekend.
• just dance 2 is the best thing eveeer.

and that about sums it all up (: until next time...
