More useless information.
My legs are super restless right now. I ran 2.75 miles Monday, 3 yesterday and 1.75 today. I haven’t run that much in a long time. It feels good, but it makes my legs really restless. I jut need to get used to running again.
Ugh.
Go away body issues. My Daddy loves me the way I am.
I hate how skinny minis are plastered all over my world and the media. And I hate how I want to be one of them.
I am teaching myself how to skateboard.
I went outside for like 20 minutes today and tried. Because I snowboard, I sort of have an idea of how to do it. I just need to practice. I’m excited about this!
My mom and grandma gave me $80 in Kohl's cash.
I’m pretty excited about this. But I also feel kind of guilty about it….:/
My friend recently introduced me to Deas Vail.
AND THEY’RE AMAZING!
Check their purevolume out. Seriously. So good.

I am excited to see:

Too bad I always want to go see movies, but rarely do.
Fact 63
Twilight is a guilty pleasure. A very guilty pleasure. I am slightly ashamed I read all the books I am slightly ashamed I have seen the movies thus far. I am slightly ashamed I own the books. But mostly, I’m ashamed I enjoyed every minute of it all.
Blast you Stephenie Meyer and your stupid love triangle.

What do you call twin boys?
A sunset.
(Get it? Son. Because they’re boys. Set. Because there’s two. BAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I told Graham [Sharefest boy] that one. I think it’s so good.)
Why do shoemakers go to Heaven?
Because they have good soles.

Sharrrrefest.
I went over to Cherry Valley after work today. I was doing some touch up stuff. And every year, one of the janitors is always at the school just helping clean and stuff. And to lock the building up. Usually, they’re older, if not really old. But this guy is young. I talked to him a tad bit yesterday. Just apologizing because I kept passing him while he was sweeping. A nice kind of thing. And...

Goal for the Summer:
Lose 15 pounds.
Sounds like a lot, I know. But you guys. I weigh 175 pounds. Yes. I really do. I don’t think I look like I weight that much, but I do. So tomorrow, one sweet thing a day. I don’t think I can cut out more than that, but if I have one small little candy-like thing at night, I’ll be golden.
If I can get down to 159, I’ll scream. That would be incredible....
Rockford Sharefest: Schools Project 2010
This will be the fourth year my church (Heartland Community Church) has done Sharefest. And when I say Sharefest, I usually mean the Schools Project part.
Sharefest is a way for our church and the Rockford community to love on local schools and the rest of the community. It started out as a Spring Break project and turned into a huge summer project. Now, every summer, volunteers go to designated...
Wowz. Too true.
Personality Test
Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You like serious, smart and determined people. You don’t judge a...
Workout for the day.
I swam laps at the Y today. It was pretty tiring, in a good way. I’m not really sure how many laps I did, but I swam for about 25 minutes. Obviously it wasn’t 25 minutes straight. I’m not exactly the greatest/faster swimmer on the planet. But it was a lot of laps. Anyway. And then at 5:30 I went to a deep water exercise class. It was pretty cool. A lot of middle aged woman, but...
Lost.
I’ve been feeling kind of lost lately. I’m very much a people person. I grow attached to people easily. And I want to build strong relationships with them. Yet I’m kind of shy.
I don’t have a whole lot of friends at home anymore. After going to IMSA, I lost/grew apart from a lot of them. And so going home kind of sucks friend-wise. I’m at home most nights and...

My upper body is killing me.
My dad got a new tube and we tried it out yesterday. And he killed us. Dang. He was whipping us around like crazy and my arms are so sore. And it’s waaay worse now than it was this morning. Crap, so much pain. It feels awesome, though. I love the pain of a good workout. Especially when I had no intentions of getting a workout.
Someone posted this somewhere...
I didn’t just stumbled upon this, but it’s too good not to share. I don’t know if it was on fb or tumblr, but here it is. A spoof of an Old Spice commercial. So good.

Goal for this week:
To get rid of a lot of my stuff.
Clothes, books, toys, electronics, etc.
I don’t want to sell it (unless I sell it and give the money away). I want to give it away. And my dad’s probably going to kill me for this, but I have too much. I’m watching a Francis Chan video about being rich (which we all are compared to the rest of the world) and how it’s so hard for the rich...

Stuff
I really feel this pull that I have too much stuff. I feel like I need to get rid off a lot of the stuff I have in my room by donating it to someone or some place. As well as not spending my money, except in ways that really go back to God. (The only problem is that I tend to want to hold on to everything for sentimental reasons…)

Hey Daddy,
That was really frustrating. And I don’t think I dealt with it very well. I think it was hard to have that conversation online and at 1:30 am, but I think I could’ve done better. I don’t think I was relying on You, which is ironic because I was talking about how much I trust You.
God, I want to live Your Word through my actions and my words. I want to make You known and I want...
Please stop talking to me.
I know you like me. But I’m tired. And sometimes you get on my nerves. You are too clingy. You’re a nice guy, but you’re too much for me.
God, help me keep it under control.

Church was amazing, cont.
The past couple of weeks I’ve been trying to tithe properly. I don’t have a lot of money, and I know I’ll have a lot a lot of bills when I get out of school, but I really feel that God will take care of them. I know that means I’ll have to work hard and will probably have to give up a lot. And I pray that God will help me do that.

Church was fantastic today.

Today is my ex-boyfriend's birthday.
And it brings up a lot of hurt.
His sister was a senior when we were dating (We were sophomores.). She spread some rumors about us and our relationship sexually. And she told her mom those rumors. Unfortunately, their mom believed her and not him, even though he told her the truth on many occasions. Their mom called me a whore, wench, skank, etc., even though she had never met me. I’ve...
