So this is my first

So this is my first blog, and I have to say that it feels good. Even though I did this for my family, I think that it is self-satisfactory, and I can see myself keep doing this. Yay. And since I am going off to college soon, I figure this as a way to keep it touch with my familia. Lately, I have begun to appreciate writing more and more. Ever since I got my new laptop, as a way to practice getting used to the “keyboard,” I have just been writing/typing on it, and thoughts of mine came out that I didn’t even knew existed. It was almost as if I was in a different world. When I write…anything…I feel better about myself and the path that I have chosen to take. No one really knows, except God, if it is the right one, but the more I think it through, I feel assured that I am correct and that life is good.

I never realized how much I appreciated home until I was gone. I only really have one more week left ‘till I go back to Cho-Yeh. No matter how much fun I may be having, there is truly nothing like home. Thank you , Mom.

Singing off…this is Court…lalalalala

Sooooo. First off, don’t expect

Sooooo. First off, don’t expect me to be writing all that much (like every day). I’m only writing diurnally because it’s new…that’s it.

Today, my mom’s friend’ family came in. They are really cute even though there are 5 of them. Sophie, Joey, Clarks, Brooks, and Christoper. It’s a handful! I don’t know how long they should be here, but for the mean while…it’ll be good. Tonight we’re having John’s Beef Stroganaff…yum..

MY life now is still pretty good. I am still battling with the issue of only having 2 weeks here. I mean, I love Cho-Yeh, but I am not going to have the chance to say good-bye to all my friends in a formal way. What I know is going to happen is me coming back, after Fish Camp, and having everyone gone, and them out of my lives. And yes yes…I know that all this is doesn’t have to happen. People always say to always “stay in touch, ” but in reality, does that every really happen? NO. Of course not. i’ve noticed that things always get too busy, and no one has time for any real relationships. Now adays, it is more important to have acquaintences than true friends…bahhh. That kinda sucks, but I can’t change the whole world. I just live my life as a deem appropriate and satisfactory to me. Yes, it’s great. I live by morals, and morals I shall keep.

Enough about that. Dinner’s almost ready….talk to you later.

So, I guess I’ll update

So, I guess I’ll update everyone what I did as of Friday. Well, Friday, I went and enjoyed “Charlie’s Angels—Full Throttle” w/ Osama, one of my close friends. It was a little funny though. When he went to pay for his ticket, the cashier person thought that he was paying for both of us, and so it turned out that he paid for mine too. And what that did was remind me of when Osama totally liked me. :) Which was weird, but all the same—reminescent. Then, I had a horrible night sleep because I was on the floor all night. BAH, and I think i woke up about 20 times. But all the same, I slept a little and woke up at 7:30 IN THE MORNING. (that’s a first for me) I helped my mom make lots and lots of pancakes. (we tripled the recipe), and then we ate them…of course. The kids left, and me and my mom went swimming for about 30 minutes. Afterh that it was time for Gisele, my step mom, and Hannah, my half sister to come over, so that we could see “Finding Nemo.” We watched the movie, which I found was absolutely the cutest. (once it comes out, I want to buy it…AS SOON AS IT COMES OUT) Then, after Hannah played in our wading pool for about an hour, we had hamburgers. Yum.. But of course, I got a call from Brandon, and he said that he was throwing a party…(he was leaving for a week to go to Colorado), and I said that I would go. He picked me up about 7:15, and before we went to his house, we bought a leash for Rex. And I picked up some free doggy treats for him. Of course, Rex was thankful. :) Then, we went to his house, and I wanted to go play basketball…And so did everyone else. We played basketball for about 1.5 hours; it was a total blast. yay yay yay. Then, me, Jason, Jordan, and Brandon were just talking for a long time. It was fun. Then I went to sleep. YUm

Sunday …I did nothing. Besides swimming and winning $4 from poker…that’s about it.

Monday…I went swimming with Kari for an hour. It was great fun. In fact, we’re going tomarrow at 10. That’s about it. I’m pooped today. Pooped Pooped Pooped.

Luv, Court
