Oodles & Noodles

So far my summer has been...slow. As stated previously I attended Camp Brethren Heights in late June with Sami. It was definitely not what I had been expecting. I had genuine fun! The food was good (not Prager good but close), the people were entertaining to say the least, and I just had a good time. Sadly that was just about the biggest thing I've done all summer.

My 17th birthday came and went on the thirteenth of this month. It was nice not a big party but then again it never is. My family got me a cowbell! Pretty wicked huh? I bet you wish you had a cowbell? Jealous? You should be!

My various gardens are doing well. This year's edible lineup includes: Zucchini, pumpkins (which I did not plant), bell peppers (green orange and purple), six variations of tomatoes, basil, chives, oregano, lettuce, spinach, raspberries, blackberries, and pickling cucumbers. What a list, huh?

On a side note I will be a senior come fall. Scary isn't it?

Well summer break is finally here. Took way too long if you ask me. It's gonna be a good one I can tell! What are my plans you ask? Well let's see...
I'm going to go to church camp with Sam in two weeks. Then we have district conference for our church near the middle of August and those are my only definite plans. But I have other things that I want to get done...Like finishing The Order, When the Music Ends, War Games, and Of Fairy tales, Birds, and Suspenders. (i.e. the stories I've been working on) I've recruited some of my friends to be my new editors/beta readers/plot bunnies/muses/whatever I need them to be. (If you would like to be a part of this select group, give me a jingle). I've also started a 'letter writing campaign' of sorts amongst my friends because I have a deep-seated dislike for the telephone. Oh I also plan on getting a heck of a lot more sun than I did last year. I refuse to be the color of printing paper any longer! Seriously I was the whitest person out of everyone I knew. It was both hilarious and kinda creepy. So ya that's about it. Check in with y'all later.

Spork On!

P.S. My gardening is getting better every year. I'll have to post pictures when everything hits full bloom!
P.S.S. I'm a senior now! I totally graduate next year. Just thought I'd let you know.

Thursday's Shirt of Pure Awesomeness!

Alright, so I was meandering around the Alma Highland Festival last Saturday, ogling all those beautiful swords n' such when this little beauty caught my eye. That's right Bagpipe Hero! And here I was completely oblivious to it's existence. And you though Guitar Hero drove your parents nuts!
(Note: I did not attend the highland festival just to see some exceptionally good looking men in kilts...for the most part ;)

Spork On

Hehhehehe!

Best weekend ever! Wolverine tonight and prom tomorrow! *squeel*

Thurdays Shirt of Pure Awesomness!!

I thought this shirt was appropriate due to the new Star Trek movie coming out in a few weeks. Ah Star Trek, I can hear the legions of Trekies now...*sigh* But seriously it's those poor nameless characters that always turn into cannon fodder, isn't it? Todays shirt is brought to you by J!NX and can be found here http://www.jinx.com/men/shirts/geek/crewman_6.html?catid=2&cs=2&csd=2
