I've noticed that there are two ways you can approach a problem. You can either be mature about it, or immature. I have a lot of respect for a person who doesn't point fingers when trying to solve a problem. When they approach it in a grown up way and try to evaluate the situation before they get mad. It makes things a lot better when everyone can share their side of the story, and actually be listened to. If you come to me with a problem, I will be honest with you. On the other hand, I have NO respect for anyone who just goes around pointing fingers and assuming that they know everything without talking to the person they have a problem with in a mature manner. Trying to look all big and bad by calling someone out or talking about them behind their back is not the mature way to solve the problem, it only makes it worse.

Senior.
Yes, my mom cried. No, I didn't. I did stay up late the night before because I couldn't sleep, I was too excited. Everything that has happened so far this year has been bittersweet. These past few months have already been full of a lot of "lasts". Last first day, last Austin v. Decatur game, last rush, last homecoming, last pep rally, last football game, last pancake breakfast, and last powder puff tournament (Class of 2011, back to back champs, BTW !) . My goal this year is to just have fun and to make it the best, even if mom complains that I'm not home enough anymore. I've settled friendships that were rocky and created MANY new ones, and I love the people in my life right now. Some days I'm so ready to graduate, some I'm not. But after visiting USA this weekend, I'm more excited about college.
A couple weeks ago, my 9 year old sister and I were jokingly yelling smart comments back and forth to each other, and she pulled the " I....just wish you would go to college !" card. It kind of hurt me a little, although we were joking, that she thought of that. It made me realize that I wont be seeing her or anyone in my family everyday anymore. Its a weird feeling hearing my sisters fight about who is getting my room, or who's room I'm going to stay in when I come home for holidays. I have a feeling that the first few months I'm gone, I will be having weekly "Skype dates" with them. As much as we argue, I know I'm going to miss them.
It's feels crazy to say that senior year is almost halfway over, but it has been great so far. One thing I'm sure of is that I love my classmates, and the fact that we are like one big family, its amazing.

It's been a while...
For my birthday, we grilled out at the campground and I had a few people come and eat. After we headed over to the Luau at Point Mallard, then just chilled at the campground. We all had a lot of fun just being crazy, which I'm pretty sure swinging around the flag pole by the Miss Point Mallard stage is illegal...oh well.
Like normal, when summer comes you see some people more than others. To catch up and manage to forget boys for just one night, and we had a girl's night at Allie's Nana's house. Its always fun to just be with the girls, and just be crazy. We ate pizza, swam, talked, and just had a good time. For some reason at one point in the night, Brittany went out to Tori's car to get something, and realized that the doors were Saran wrapped shut, and she sprinted into the house screaming " SOMEONE VANDALIZED OUR CARS ! " , we all just looked at her like she was crazy, but then we realized what she said. Haha. We are all convinced on who it is, and he knows who he is. My favorite part was probably just sitting around, talking and giving each other advice and making fun of ourselves and just being stupid. I had a lot of fun catching up with my girls (:
Since we have such a busy summer schedule, my parents thought that taking a big trip would be hard to do, so they decided to borrow my aunts camper and camp out at Point Mallard for about a month. It was nice to have, and I don't think there has been a day where I haven't been out there. Out of the many nights I stayed out there, there was never a dull one. Especially 4th of July weekend. I was really thankful for the camper when I heard how hard it was to find a parking place. Is it just me, or do the fireworks get worse every year? It lasted for a grand total of 15 minutes this year. I just remember them lasting longer in the past but, I love fireworks, so I enjoyed it.
Like last year, I am playing on the Dixie Debs All-Star team. We beat Underwood in the District Tournament again this year, and we are state bound on Friday. To raise money for state, we sold Krispy Kreme donuts. I spent the night with Allie the night before, we pulled an all-nighter ( fun, but NOT smart ), and got up at about 4 in the morning to set up on the side of the road and sold the donuts. We sold as much as we could, then we drove all around Decatur to sell the rest. Took until about 3 P.M. ( for me, this was 29 hours of no sleep ). I'm pretty sure I was ill, and probably gave too much of an attitude to some people, which if that was you, I'm sorry. In the end we raised a lot of money, and it was all worth it.
I spent the weekend with my best friend, and we had soooo much fun. Like always, of course! I can't even tell you the amount of times we finished each other's sentences, or said the same thing, or did the same thing at the same time etc..this weekend, it creeps us out sometimes.She always been there for me, and always will be. I have no idea what I'd do without her, she always knows what will make me feel better. Things as little as sending me a picture of Patrick Dempsey to make me smile when I'm having a bad day, haha. She is a big part of who I am today, and everytime we're together I'm reminded why she is my best friend (:
That is just a small part of how summer has gone so far, but it would take forever to put all the great moments. Its gone by so fast, and I'm not ready for it to be over. I take my senior portraits in a couple weeks, I think it will hit me then that this is really my last year of high school. It's bittersweet, and I'm looking forward to enjoying every minute of it.
