its cold.
its almost april.
it should be warm(er)(ish).
i can think of someone right now who is somewhere VERY WARM and im not happy. =D
annddd when he comes back and reads this...he may not be happy either. =P
but having just sampled some peppermint tea ((tehe)) given to me to try...i must say that my EXPERT opinion is its quite tasty. =]
so this is just me talking and trying to write a blog and amuse myself when i could be doing any number of things that may or may not include: sky diving, working on my science project, writing the 67th amendment, sleeping, studying for math test, studying for science test, applying to colleges...the list goes on and on...
before i end this pointless babbling...i must say one thing. by this time next week, i will have something new and not so exciting to show the world. you can draw your own conclusions...
HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S EVE EVERYONE!!! =D

Happy Easter!
my crazyyy family got together today to celebrate with food, games, and family.
im really tired so i'll just overview the day.
we ate.
played games.
ate randomly.
talked about whatever.
played more games.
went home.
well keeping the little ones ((mostly trent)) occupied, i pictured myself with my own kids. AHH! haha.
i always have these dreams that im getting married. but the groom's face is blurred out, like when they sensor things on COPS or something. and when i ((very cleverly)) look at his side of the church as i glide down the isle, its either like looking out at my church on any given sunday, or complete strangers.
and then its like:
preacher: "do you take him to be ur husband"
me: "uhh maybe if i knew who he was?"
preacher: "im sorry but you're not allowed to know that."
me: "GAHHH!!!"
so, like those dreams, i picture myself at one of the family gatherings, with kids and a husband, but an unknown husband. its aggrivating!!!!!!!!!!
anywho.
that really has nothing to do with Easter.
but yeah.
as mrs. k would say>>> "RABBIT TRAIL!"

Daddy's Little Girl
my dad and i started a puzzle last night...at like midnight. haha we're slightly crazy. =]
and we got pretty far. and he started talking. about moving. about cleaning/organizing things. and suddenly he was saying stuff out of nowhere to the effect of my mom getting remarried. it took me a second to realize that was saying he's expecting to die. like soon. i almost lost it. but i didnt want to for some reason. i just felt too shocked to cry, to react at all. and then it was suddenly almost 2am and i had to get up early, so i got ready to go upstairs. then he said he wanted to pray with me. so he held me and he prayed. and when he started to cry, i cried too. but not really. its hard to explain what i felt. i felt like i needed, wanted to cry. but not in front of him. he seems so weak and struggling. i feel like i need to be there for him. so i sat in my room for a while and just cried and prayed, crying out to God in my anguish for my daddy. i felt like i needed someone to just hold me. its at times like these, that i wish i had a boyfriend. ((half joking folks)).
but this daddy's little girl needs to put her trust into her Father more often.

So...
as i sit here with my steaming mug of green tea with peach...i ponder this past week. and well i must say that this break has been quite pointlessly relaxing. =]
so far i havent done anything too crazy or exciting in the real sense of the word. but to me, i've had a blast.
tuesday night i had show choir. my knee popped out. not fun. so the whole night i was dancing and running around ((not by choice, really)) and that made it worse. so by the time i got home i was in some pain. and i've iced it numerous times this week. so that put a damper on my relaxation. ice pack and hobbling. woot woot. anywho. wednesday i slept in til 11:30. which is a unber big deal for me. cuz im like physically unable to sleep in anymore. and i then preceding to do nothing with my day pretty much. thursday i didnt feel so good. but it got gradually better. my headaches are getting worse. so im popping more pills. haha sounds really great i know! =] i made peanut butter cookies on thursday afternoon. the parental units were gone with the little brother and so i had the house to myself. i just made cookies and wasted time away that i could be doing "valuable" school work/projects with. good me! i then headed off to mandi's house for a night of fun and more fun! ((no BUBBLE WRAP as someone who i wont name mentioned.)) we first went to rita's to get some free water ice. and it was COLD! and green apple is goooddd! =D
then we went to her house and abbey ((along with her new braces)) joined us there. we stayed up pretty late watching movies and taking pictures. then we woke up, had some pancakes, took some more pictures, wasted lots of time, then abbey left and i followed soon after. now im home with an awful headache.
so thats pretty much all for now...so exciting i know! tomorrow im helping with my neice lana's birthday party. then my mom and i are probably going shopping to get me an Easter dress. yes folks, A DRESS! woot woot! then probably off to the kasitz's for a night of fun and fellowship and coming home smelling like a campfire. YAY! im excited. then its Easter and a full day of church stuff, family, food, family, food, more family and a TON of food! i cant wait!

SPECIAL REPORT
"WMZRT NEWS AT NOON"
*cue music*
"Good afternoon. I'm Martha Smith. Today, we have a special report, happening now in a small, remote, sometimes called "hickish" town in Pennyslvania. Boyertown was last on our station when a farmer was robbed of his tractor. *pause* It is reported that two girls are running wild through the halls of Boyertown Junior High West at this time. No one knows how to stop them or why they are on this rampage. Our reporter Bob Jones is live on the scene. Bob?"
"yes martha. im here with the principal of the school, mr. g and the superindent of boyertown schools, dr. m. mr. g., what do you have to say on this matter?"
"well bob i must say that we never expected anything like this from joanna manthey. she's been on the high honor roll every quarter in her three years with us. she is involved in music in many ways and has contributated in many ways to our school. all the teachers and most of the students are quite shocked. no one saw this coming."
"yes...but our reports say that there are two girls...who is the other one?"
"well...*looks embarrassed*...we really cant tell you that at this time. she seems to have slipped in...supposedly in joanna manthey's purse this morning. we have some rumors flying around that she is actually joanna's best friend, goes to daniel boone, and is here to "deal with" some problems. but these are all rumors."
*hours later*
bob: "martha, we have confirmed reports that the two girls who were wrecking havoc on the school are in police costudy at this time."
*cue video of gym scene*
"this is a video of when the girls were finally cornered in the gymnasium of the school, where this whole mess started. the trail of destruction they left behind is dizzying. it is reported that at least 15 students were injured in the gym itself. also there were about five other people throughout the school that were taken down. they seemed to know already who they wanted to go after. makes you wonder..."
*camera zooms in on two girls standing in the middle of the gym, armed with hockey sticks, but looking quite innocent, while the swat team moves in.*
"it has been confirmed that Erica Hamel is the accomplice in this crime. she does in fact go to daniel boone and has been known to be a trouble maker before. some teachers are saying that no good has come of her close friendship with Joanna Manthey. some are even considering the possibility that Joanna was brainwashed by Erica. neither girls' parents have been able to be reached. no word yet on any charges or lawsuits. we'll keep you posted. from boyertown pennsylvania, im Bob Jones. back to you martha."
"thank you bob. in other news there was a five car pile up at..."
THE END
:NOTICE:
please note that everything in this story is completely fictional and made up in the minds of ERICA DANIELLE HAMEL and JOANNA SHARON MANTHEY. some real names and places were used for the purpose of making the story exciting and moving it along. but the actually story line is not true. thank you.

babysitting...
last night...well it was fun.
babysitting 5 kids, aged 11 down to 1, plus my little brother. it was crazy. it was mayhem. its my family. =D
at one point i was thinking of what else i could have been doing. i could have gone to the dance. could have slept over at erica's. could have been at home wasting time. but in the end, i was very glad that i didnt.
you know, in school, they give you the Baby Think It Over. its supposed to "prepare" you for having a baby and show how much work it really is. well i think that they should expand the program to a live, FAMILY think it over. its very much more effective. and the "live" part really hits home. speaking from personal experience here. =]
as i was putting the munchkins to bed; brushing teeth, telling stories, tucking in...i found myself thinking into the future and the past. i guess i was sorta dreaming? haha.
i saw myself living alone in a lighthouse by the sea, perfectly content with the life i had chosen. then, i went to babysit my sister's family. and i suddenly wished i had one of my own. but it was too late, for some reason. ((its hard to explain how i knew that...you know in dreams you kinda just KNOW stuff that really doesnt make sense for you to know)) anywho.
then i saw myself in my mom's position. tons of little munchkins running around and me going crazy(er). but then i realized that i was running a daycare and none of them were actually mine.
THEN i saw myself in a nice house somewhere in the suburbs. i was rocking a little baby to sleep. and i knew that it was mine. i didnt know who my husband was, or even if i was married. but i was content to just rock this baby forever.
so yeah. random thoughts of the day. when i say im not getting married, all my friends tell me that i just HAVE to...that all that MOTHER in me cant be wasted on animals in a lighthouse by the sea, or someone else children in a daycare. i guess they're right. im not planning any marriages anytime soon, for those of you who might be thinking that this is all leading up to something. and im not pregnant, so you dont have to worry about that. =]
all im saying is that God works in mysterious ways and no one ever knows how they're life will turn out. so im gonna try to keep an open mind about my future...
PS: a lighthouse by the sea would be a good summer home...=]

wow-o what a weekend! ((alliterration))
haha. i've had so much fun this weekend. ok...here's the condensed verison:
friday: no school. made fudge. and brownies. got myself ready for friday night. went on an adventure to find the magical land of douglasville with my father. we found kristen's house and dropped off my stuff. then kristen and i took an uber long journey to richard's ((four whole houses!!! *GASPS*)). there we partayed for hours and hours. lots of fun. lots of pictures. i got up to medium on guitar hero. a great success i must say. i still stank pretty badly. but still. i attempted it. even tho, according to some not-so-reliable sources, i looked like forrest gump... *COUGHCOUGHCOUGHRICHARDCOUGHCOUGH*
anywho. then i headed off to kristens. where we stayed up until three, watched hitch ((greattt movie...mmmmm PUMPKIN!!!)) anywhoo. then we decided that we would sleep for a few hours. around three, kristen set the alarm on her mom's cell phone for 6 so that we could get up and do whatever. well...we woke up alright....at 9. apparently...kristen doesnt know the difference between AM and PM. so we got more sleep than we intended. then we drank coffee and attempted to play pool. ((still working on the video)), bugged richard and eric with our giggles and country music, and had lots of fun doing so. =P
i just got home a bit ago. i had much fun and took too many pictures. thanks to those of you that helped make it so much fun. <3
