A couple weeks ago I hung out with two of my friends, dann and sarah lyn. we painted pots. I painted a cup and saucer that I get to pick up on tuesday.

Yesterday I hung out with jennnnn at grand valley! We went to meijer for hours on end because it was air conditioned, then ate dinner with her roommates and neighbors. We held hands and prayed :D It ( Read more... )

Last saturday I got back from being in canada. We had to leave at three in the morning, which was yucky...but I got to sleep most of the way, so that was way rad.

The time up there was really super. I got to see my cousins and we went swimming, tubing, and played lots of apples to apples. We watched the video from the wedding which was really funny ( Read more... )

Last tuesday and wednesday I went to chicago with my relatives and we did cool stuff. Pictures later.

Yesterday I had the wonderful privilege of seeing connor for the day.

Today I hung out with my mom, rachael kingma, and her mom.

Tomorrow morning I'm leaving for canada for a week. I'm super excited.

1. my camera died for good, but I got a new, better one for not too much money.
2. thanks to jenn webber, my ipod is working wonderfully now.
3. my cell phone's fine now. it was moody, but is ok now.

Nothing I own wants to work. Let me explain myself:

1. If 'i turn my camera on' (name that tune, and i'll be a slight bit happier), it shows me somethings that says "E18" and turns all black, then turns off, but the the lens part is still out. But if I get past that and actually am able to take a picture, everything turns out really dark and unable ( Read more... )

Last tuesday I drove from my little home in holland, michigan to gabriella's house in birmingham. We walked to get slushies at gefari mobil (i knowi spelled that completely incorrectly). Later connor came over and we went to royal oak to meet up with mikey. We shopped in lost and found vintage, then went leo's to eat, because holland still doesn't ( Read more... )

Jess' wedding is in less than two weeks. It's extremely odd to know that soon she will be married. Today me and jodi picked up our bridesmaids dresses, and I like them a little more. It helps that I have a little more color, so I'm not so washed out from the bubblegum pink ;)
I can already (without trying to sound melodramatic) see our relationship ( Read more... )

So, here's how it works:
Open your music player (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, etc).
Put it on shuffle.
Press play.
For every question type the song that's playing.
When you go to a new question press the next button.
Some songs fit perfectly.

I'm nervous for how this is going to turn out. I might get really embarrassed.
