I don't ever write in this thing...especially lately, because I haven't got a computer to use, except in first hour. I really don't have time for it anymore. Work keeps me busy 3 of the 7 days of the week, and when I'm not working, I'm doing schoolwork or enjoying the days off that I have. I got my second level license the other day. Now all I have to do is take my road test and wait 4 months until I turn 16. All that's been on my mind lately is work - what I have to do today, what I had to do that day, when I have to work next. It's really crazy, but I'm earning a lot of money, so it's a good deal. I think I definitely earn my money.
I watched the final episode of Friends last night, and I admit that I cried. It was extremly sad that the characters will never be how they have been for the past 10 years again. I loved it.
Okay, I just lost the ambition to update. I'll edit this later.
Love, Katie |

The last time I updated was during Spring Break! I'm horrible with keeping journals on the computer up to date. I loved Spring Break, that's for sure. I can't wait until the summer.
So, back to school again. We had two late starts last week, which were very nice. On Wednesday of this week, Katy and I are going to breakfast. We have three more late starts this week (tomorrow, Wednesday, and Thursday). This weekend was fun, too. Friday, I went home with Katy and we went to Chelsea's house with Kevin to have a bonfire. It was really fun. Saturday, I worked from 12-5, then Katy, Chelsea, Alyssa, and I saw 13 Going on 30. Aw, it was so cute! After that, we went to McDonalds. Wow, some fun times there. Sunday, I rented Win A Date With Tad Hamilton!. Sunday was my lazy day. I had a lovely conversation with my father, as well. [sarcasm] He has an unkempt way of making me cry and making me so angry so easily. I didn't fall asleep until around 1am last night. Today, I have work from 3-7, then Edge from 7-9:15. I feel so busy lately. I like not just sitting around my house all afternoon and night, though. It makes me feel more accomplished. :)
Love,
Kate |

I'm so disappointed - today is Sunday. Today being Sunday means that tomorrow is Monday, and Monday means school. Break has been too much fun. I was with Katy most of the time. She has become like my best friend. I hung out with Kris a couple times too. Ash, Renee, Steven, Cameron, and I went over to Kris's house last night. We watched Big Daddy; I love that movie. Speaking of movies, over break I saw two movies. One was with Channing and it was The Prince & Me. The other was with Kevin, Kates, and Aurora - Jersey Girl. Both were really cute. The other activity that I did was miniature golf with Kates and Kevin. That was soo funny. I can't wait to get my pictures developed; I took a whole roll just at mini golf.
The weather has been awesome the past few days. It's only 11:45 and the sun is really bright. It definitely feels like spring. I'm glad, too, because we've had enough of winter. The only good thing about winter is snowboarding, but in like Colorado, you can snowboard and be cold up in the mountains, but then come down and be in 70 degree weather. Michigan needs to be able to do that. Oh well, spring is great.
Last day of break...I'm probably going to go tanning with Kates, and no idea what else. It's been fun, though. :)
Love, Katie |

Today is so perfect. I haven't done anything to make it perfect, but I think I'm feeling "Spring Fever!" I was sitting at the computer in a pair of jeans and a tank top, and I was looking outside on the deck at the sun and how pretty it, and all of a sudden I got extremely hyper and happy. For the past 45 minutes or so, I've been dancing around my house and the deck to country music like Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney. I feel so good.
I think Kates and I are walking to TCBY to get ice cream. Oh wait, Kris corrected me the other day...it's FROZEN YOGURT. So sorry. Anyway, I think that's what we're doing this wonderful afternoon. We're going tanning later, but nothing tonight yet. (hint: PLANS!)
Love,
Katie
Look at how cute my Kates is!! I love her :) |

Last night was really fun. Kates, Kevin, and I went miniature golfing. Wow...Katy is soo good! haha sarcasm. It was funny to see how mad she got and her attempts to play well. Kevin put his head in the fountain and his hair was soaking wet. After mini golfing, Kates was hungry, so Kevin suggested that we walk over to Burger King. Walking over the bridge was scary; Kates and I kind-of jumped when a car went by. At Burger King, these guys came in, and Katy was looking at them. She said how hot they were and how she wanted the one blond kid. When we were walking out of the restaurant, two of the guys stood up all of a sudden, and Kates & I were like, what? They come outside and say to Kevin, "wanna fight? i'll beat your ass" Katy and I were soo confused! They went back inside after a minute and we say to Kevin, "what the hell was that all about?!" and it turns out that Kevin flicked them off because they were looking at Katy and me. Katy was so mad because she thought that one guy was hot, but I thought it was funny. I took an entire roll of film last night, and I can't wait to see the pictures.
Kates slept over last night, and we watched our show (101 Starlicious...)and then Degrassi and Daria. I couldn't fall asleep until around 5. Lauren was supposed to stay over, too, but there wasn't a way for her to get home this morning. I have to work at 3. Katy and I are going tanning around 7, when I get off, and then who knows what. We'll find something. :)
Love,
Katie |

Spring Break has been so fun!! Kates and I have been doing stuff everyday minus Easter Sunday. We saw Jersey Girl the other night with Kev and Aurora. Channing and I saw The Prince & Me the first night of break. Both were really cute movies. Katy and I have also been going tanning everyday. I've gotten really dark, and Katy is getting there. Break is not even close to over though! Katy is becoming one of my really good friends. I haven't even really talked to many other girls this break. I had a conversation with Lauren today; the first in a long time. Some of the guys came over before I had to work yesterday and almost made me late! Tonight, Katy and I went shopping. Sarah, Janey, Aurora, & Diana were there, too. It was pretty fun spending money. :)
Not much else is really going on. It always seems like there is a lot that I want to say, but either I can't say it or I don't know how to. I'm talking to Alex and Katy online right now. Alex is such a good friend; too bad that he goes to Rochester.
me & kev :) except i look sick
me, kevin, & katy
channing & me :)

Spring Break starts tomorrow at 10:35am! I'm so excited to be able to sleep past 6:45, relax all day, and hang out with my friends. A lot of them are going to be gone, but that's alright. I am looking forward to not worrying about assignments having to be done in one night and all the stress that goes along with school. It's going to be great.
I had my first day of work yesterday. :) It was pretty good. There are a lot of benefits from working at Ridley's including discounts and college savings. You should definitely come visit me. I'll post my hours and stuff later, because I don't have them yet.
That's about it that has happened so far today. I mainly updated because Alex yelled at me to, so there ya go, Alex. I might add to this a little later.
Love,
Katie |

| Carpe Diem 04 Retreat |
[Apr. 4th, 2004|07:39 pm] |
Wow...this weekend was by far the best weekend of my life. I went to Spring Hill for the Edge spring retreat with Channing. I only knew her and Nate when I first arrived, but I made so many great friends in two and a half days. Before I came to Spring Hill, I was extremely stressed with school, friends, and life. There was just too much going on, and I had no idea how to deal with it. Being around these loving people at Carpe Diem has changed the way I think about life. "It's not for us. It's all for You." I allowed God to enter into my life in an entirely new way. There are really not words to describe how I feel now. Last night, we did an activity called The Labryinth. We went through a series of events which brought me closer to God. It was amazing.
I love everyone at Carpe Diem. The members of my small group were so supportive and loving. These people barely knew me, but they embraced me and cared about me. It was astounding how these strangers connected with me to become some of my best friends. I can't really explain how I'm changing right now because I'm still in evaluation.
Channing said that change starts from the inside and then moves to the outside. You probably won't notice a change in me right away...you may never notice the change. I know the change, though, and that's all that matters. Channing and I were even talking about transferring to Oakland Christian high school. It's a little early to be talking about it, but I think that it'd be awesome to go there. Tom was really supportive when I told him about it. Tom is a great youth ministry leader. Everyone at Edge and Carpe Diem was amazing. This weekend was life-changing.
Love,
Katie |

Hey, LiveJournal looks almost exactly the same as Blurty...oh well, I'm starting one of these journals again, mostly out of boredom.
School has been crazy lately, what with the end of the card marking period and all. I've got a lot of pressure to do well this time. I found out today that I've brought my biology and geometry grades up by a whole letter grade. (That means that I'm not grounded!) I definitely need Spring Break so I don't have to worry about grades and homework for a whole week. I'm not going to California after all, since the baby is due in a week. I'll be at home, relaxing. It almost sounds as good as the beach, sun, and sand. Suuure. :)
Ashleigh and I are getting so excited for a concert in August! Rascal Flatts & Kenny Chesney are together for the "Guitars, Tiki Bars, and A Whole Lotta Love" tour. I get back from Florida, that day, so it will be a rush to get to the concert on time, but I'm definitely there.
Love,
Katie |
