One of 6

Last night I when to a surprise 16th Birthday party for my friend Chase. Awesome night by the way. Anyways there was an airbrush tattoo guy there. I ended up getting 6 tattoos through out the night! I have: my life verse (Psalm 30:11-12) on my right arm, a dove on the side of my neck, a rose (my middle name) on my right ankle, feathers on my left arm, "Hosanna" written across my nickles, and finally as always Olam Ahava on my wrist. Ok I admit it the last on I already had on and I drew it with a Sharpie. But I still count it as one of my tattoos. And for those of you who don't know Olam Ahava means everlasting love in Hebrew.

Oh and the picture. Just for your enjoyment. Sorry you can't see it very well, I tried my best.

Red Light, Green Light

For the past couple of days I have been singing at Summer Spectacular (VBS, Saddleback style). Here's how it works we (the band) do 3 songs in the morning then 3 in the afternoon. After the first set we eat breakfast then go back in the tent where we sing. We like to use our spare time in there by well doing a bunch of random stuff. But something we always do is, play a group game. Today's game.....Red Light, Green Light.

Now we play this game a bit different. For one thing, ya can't laugh or smile. Another thing Taffy (HSM band leader), will try to make us flinch or laugh. For instance he came up to my friend Kyle and started dinging "A Whole New World" from Aladdin and wrapped a pink feather boa around him. Or he'll pop a balloon in your face, weird stuff like that. That is why we will not be asking Taffy if we could play Red Light, Green Light anytime soon. Or never again.

Oh and about the picture, just kinda shows what Taffy put us through. In this case my friends Hannah and Kyle. Once his work was done he to people to take pictures of them, haha. This makes me laugh every time.

Shamwow

So one of my brother's (Zac) spent some of his birthday money to buy 8 Shamwows. Don't ask me why, just continue to read this post and try to understand his weird ways. Any who, ever since then tall three of my brothers have been "spilling" their water on the floor and then cleaning up their mess with their brand new Shamwows. Not to mention they have also been showing me the absorbency powers of the Shamwow.

I know,

I live a strange life.

But I love it.

How Can I Say This?

I have not written a good long post in a while (not promising that you will love this one). I think it's because my life hasn't been interesting to blog about. I don't know, point is I think it's about time I blog a long one. So with out further of due, lets get started (sorry I couldn't think of anything better to say).

I really love my TOMS. Even if they are a wee bit too small for me and that it's time I get new ones. Fortunately I have to wait until next week because I am watching a neighbors house and they won't be back until Tuesday. Then I have to wait until the 1st to get them personalized. All I know is that I want Olam Ahava (in Hebrew text) somewhere on them. I'll think of something.

I'm in the middle of Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire. I really love the book. The weird thing about me is that I will only read at night when everyone else is sleeping. I don't like reading during the day because I dislike being tired in the middle of the afternoon.

I am in love with the song "A Drop in the Ocean". If one of my guy friends sang that song to me I will love them forever. It is so dang cute.

Speaking of music I am so excited for the new Hillsong album to come out.

I have a busy week ahead of me. Me and the rest of the HSM choir will be singing at Summer Spectacular (Vacation Bible School). I can not wait.

I have not done drivers ed in such a long time. Half of me would love to be able to drive around and what not. But the other half is too lazy and hates being lazy and feels like I don't deserve it for that reason. At the same time it also feels like a competition. Whenever i hear about one of my friends saying that they are doing driving stuff I think, "Ahh, lucky". I mean it's easy but also just plain boring. Well no one promised it'd be fun.

I'd like to get a new phone a.s.a.p. I could since my contract is almost up but I'm not sure when I'd have the time to go to the Sprint store and get one.

Speaking of buying things there are 2 major items I'd love to have right now. A Mac Book and a Nikon camera (the big one). The camera is everything I want in a pro camera: small, easy to use and the best part only 280 bucks! I can get that money no problem. But the Man Book could be a problem. I mean it's $1,200. I was thinking I could pay a fraction of it and the rest is for both my birthday AND Christmas present. The down side, my birthday's not until December.

At Girls Day a group of my friends and I realized Halloween is not so far from now. That subject was brought up because we were talking about Pumpkin Fest (HSM's Halloween party). Then we were thinking of what our costumes should be. I was thinking maybe '80's or a mouse. For that I'd wear my black/gray dress, rosy cheeks, blah, blah, blah.

Olam Ahava

In English means everlasting love. I came across the 2 words when I was reading a Psalm and I instantly fell in love with them. Then I thought, Wonder what that looks like in Hebrew. So I went on Google Translator and found out. It looks pretty awesome. Now I am addicted to writing it all over. In fact I am going to get my TOMS painted on the first and somewhere it's gonna say Olam Ahava (in the Hebrew text that is). Also if I ever get a tattoo this would be it. Don't worry mother, I'll wait until my 18th birthday. But for now I'll be writing it on my wrist every now and then.

Post Script: In the picture, excuse the awkward arm. And a little F.Y.I my arm is not fat in real life at all.

I Love my Friends!

Chase and I aren't creepers or anything...pshhh

Oh Refinery Photo shoots you never fail to make me smile.

:)

Monday, Monday, Monday

My friend Meredith and I will be going to see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. I am so excited that I made shirts for us to wear when we see the movie.

You may be asking yourself why I made the shirts.

Ummm because it's A W E S O M E!

Out of Place Much?

A few days ago I went took a little trip to Fashion Island.

Just when I thought I was having a normal day, well I spoke too soon.

Why? Because I saw 3 Chinese monks.

Shaved head, sandals with socks, long robes, the whole 9 yards.

Weird right?

Right.
