Camping May Have Been Enjoyable, But Family Made It Better/Other Things...

Hey there! I am going to tell you guys/gals how my camping trip was.

September 23rd, 2011

The first day of camping was off to a good start but the rain got the best of us. Then it cleared up and made it for a wonderful afternoon. Everything is now set up, and its becoming quite nice. Sat by the campfire and it was made for a wonderful evening.

September 24th, 2011

We wake up on a beautiful sunny Saturday morning and my family has the assignment to make breakfast which to everyone is just good. Afterwards, we hung out since my cousin had a volleyball game and everyone went to that. I, however, stayed behind and enjoyed my relaxation before the chaos came back. Lunch was served later on and my aunt made a wonderful meal. I had a grilled cheese using this concoction my uncle brought with him. Which was simple at first but I didn't want it to be over burnt because that just doesn't taste good. Walked around for a while, and later on my grandpa made a wonderful meal of mac and cheese w/ pork chops. It was a very nice dinner. Our cousins & my sister & I walked around the campground to see what all the happenings were. I enjoyed it. Then later on me, my two uncles & my aunt performed for everyone around us. Some songs were "Drive" by Incubus, "Rock N Roll" By Led Zeppelin, etc. We ended our brilliant performance around 10pm due to the curfew the campground had which was 10:30 pm. UGH! It majorly sucked! Slept later, and around the middle of the night it begins to rain again. Fantastic.

September 25th, 2011

Today was the final day of camping! I had such a fun weekend with my family! Got everything packed up, said goodbyes, and took the camping picture of all of us as one beautiful family. Headed home, unpacked and that's what became of our camping trip that day.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Besides the camping trip going on, I had my friend of who I wasn't talking to over again this past week and it's getting there with her. But her habits drive me up the wall. Corsets? Really? If you want to live in the Renaissance, then get a time machine and just friggin' live there! UGH! Sorry about that mad part there. It trying to ease my stress level down some. I went back to group today (9/30/2011) and it was so nice to see everyone again. Of course, me being different wore my black feather earrings with diamonds on them with a Hello Kitty shirt and a new 'do. I love it! It was a challenge not realizing we had a physical challenge later I decided to wear flip-flops. What a no-no! Bad mistake I did. We had a new member to the group and he was a very flamboyant character. He is such a nice guy! I'm glad he came. I will be there if he's there. Then later after all the challenges we did, it begins to rain. Ah! I am in love with this! Came home later, and just enjoyed my evening with my sister around. I have my adult group session tomorrow (10/1/2011) at Longhorn Steakhouse then to Barnes & Noble afterwards. But the best part, my former friend won't be coming because of getting another friggin' bird! She has enough pets, good lord! So, I will see what becomes of me tomorrow and the rest of my life.

New Things Come & Go, But Everything Will Always Remain The Same

Hey, there! I am finally home! Just got back yesterday (9.20.2011) from being on a train for 8-9 hrs. What a ride that was. Anyways, I came home to drop my suitcases into my bedroom and noticed that is has been Feng shui'd in a new approach. My bed and nightstand is on the opposite wall near my door (not that close to it) and my desk, dresser, and bookcase is on the opposite wall where my bed used to be. I just had a huge shock reaction into seeing my bedroom so pretty and cute! Also, my bathroom is painted a lovely hue of blue. Just loving it so far!

Anyways, I called my Grammy to check in to know I am home and safe. But there was another thing on my mind; calling my former BFF to get the drama off of our chests and throwing it away. We got that over with and talked like it was old times reaching us again. She said she liked hearing my voice again after the drama we went through. Then later on, I got each of my family members something while I was on vacation; my mom recieved a Grumpy mug from "Snow White" movie, a hand santizer in the scent of fresh picked strawberries from Bath & Body Works, and Lip Smackers lip balm in strawberry (she's obsessed with them), my dad a Coca-Cola shirt with the soda brand in all different languages in the shape of a peace sign, and my sister got some new clothes (didn't fit later- sorry.) and a Own The Night CD by Lady Antellebum and watermelon lip balm Lip Smacker brand. Enjoyed the evening and I can't be any happier to be with the people I love so dearly.

9/21/2011- Had another day at home, did usual chores and ran some errands when my sister got home. Chilled, ate Spaghetti and watched a DVR recording of Project Runway. So fun to watch! Then, my former BFF calls me again and we talked. I didn't enjoy it very much, so yeah. Hung out the house until bed. Night to all!

September 23rd-25th, 2011: I am heading up to Staunton, VA for a fun camping trip with family. I can't wait! I always look forward to it every year. I leave tomorrow (9/22/2011) to prepare for all of the excitement heading our way.

As always I try leave you amazed and inspired by something I say; yet I will do that for you. Even though I have been dealing with some drama in my life, I managed to put in the back burner and focused on myself. My enemies are always following me, but they will never see me as long as they live.  I hope that is something many of us can focus on, but sometimes we can't. Lots of things come with drama, but they can end by never hearing about it again. See you all soon, I will update camping hopefully Monday (9/26/2011) and take care. Enjoy yourself, you are all you got, live it the way you are supposed to. Peace out!

We Will Remember, But Never Forget/ My Vacation Cont'd.

As we know, today is September 11th and that day was the day the planes crashed into the twin towers, pentagon, and in Pennsylvania on Flight 93. I think about that day here and there to which it makes me sad whenever its portrayed in anything to do with pop culture. I was in 3rd grade when the attacks occurred, and we were called out of school early due something bad happening and I had no clue what was going on. I arrive home on that day and saw it on the television: the twin towers were going kaput after the planes crashed into them. I prayed for people to be saved, but that was highly unlikely to happen. Thanks to all of the people that manage to get people saved and back to their loved ones. That day was a time turner for the history books.

Anyways, my vacation has going splendid as usual, with more shopping and me helping out with abandoned dogs with my aunt. The time has been nice down here with the people I love surrounding around me. Besides that, I tried a new Italian restaurant one night for dinner and it was delicious to be exact! Of course I had spaghetti as usual and everything that happened later will be somewhat momentous. I brought a game with me called Pass The Popcorn and you have to name the cast, characters, quote, and storyline of a movie. It was fun. The new things I got were new clothes from American Eagle such as a hoodie, two flannels, two tanks, a color block shirt; Hot Topic- a Lady GaGa hoodie and a small purse, black feather diamond earrings, a black heart necklace and a Vampires Everywhere! CD; Macy*s- a pair of Roxy Houndstooth/Tweed Shoes; a lace shirt from Belk. That was a nice shopping outing day with my aunt.  I also went to other places on other day by getting a Rolling Stone Magazine, a Glee Uno Game, The Hunger Games book, a Vera Bradley pen and pencil set, and a Harper's Bazaar Magazine with Lea Michele on the cover. The day I helped my aunt with the abandoned dogs was overwhelming at first but I managed to get through it nicely. I would definitely adopt this yellow lab named Jenna, and this pitbull named Macy. I am going to be home, as you already know, on September 20th, 2011. I am getting homesick here and there but I make it through every single day as if were yesterday coming back to me.

I hope everyone is enjoying the last times of summer, and then fall comes around the corner. I go camping the week I get home and it will be nice to see even more family. I will come home with a new attitude and lease on life. Drama is in the past, my life is in the present, and my future has yet to be set for me. I love all my family and friends and I know they love me back. Bye, everyone! See you soon! :)
