Just a quick catch-up. I am in the school musical this year. I am the VP for honor soceity. and I am doing choir! yay!
So on Monday I told my mom i needed treats for musical practice. So we made chocolate chip cookies, and some had walnuts for my dad to take to work. We didnt make enough just chocolate chip cookies, so i took a few walnut cookies also. I even labeld the bag with the walnut cookies so i wouldn't eat them, and i knew a few people who were also allergic to nuts. In the musical there are about 40 people participating in it, so after i set the cookies down, and all of the confusion of everyone trying to get the cookie they wanted i went to go help clean up. There were 2 walnut cookies left, and 1 just chocolate cookie left. I got rid of the walnut cookies, and i decided to eat the last chocolate chip one. well as I was eating it, i though it kinda tasted a little different. After I had eaten most of the cookie, i looked down and saw a huge walnut right in the middle of the cookie. Then i realized why it tasted differnt. I had eaten a cookie with walnuts in it. No one was near me because i was on the way to the auditorium from the teahcers class room. So i stared freaking out. I hurry and walked back to the class room knowing that it was closer, and that the teacher was probably still in there, and a few of my friends were there. As i was walking back there were on there way there, and with tears running down my face I tried to calmly tell them what had happend.
I tried to stay as calm as possible, because i knew that if i freaked out about it, everyone else would too, and that would freak me out more, and then it would become worse. So we tryed to call my mom, no answer. I called my dad knowing that he couldnt do alot since he was 40 miles away at work, but he could at least make some phone calls for me and tell me what to do. So i sat there in a panic with my friends waiting for kolton to show up and take me home. I had to constantly remind them that i was not going to die, and that i would be fine. I had to eventually tell them that if they didnt stop worrying about it then it would become worse. When kolton picked me up, and i went home and took some benedryll. My mouth hurt a little, and i had a little shortness of breath, but nothing big. It was a scarry experence, but it taught me to always look at what i am eating. Just dont assume things.
I want to give a big thanks for all of my family alwats being a big part in my life, and being there to help me. I love living so close to so many relatives, so they can be there if everyone else is busy. I am glad i have a great brother who can drive and pick me up, and a great dad who knows what to do even in situations like that. And a mom who knows how to calm me down when i am freaking out. And all of my aunts, uncles, grandmas, grandpas, and cousins that i can call to help me when the rest of my family is not able to be there. And all of my friends who were there for me when i needed them to sit with me, and help me when i needed it. Thank's to everyone who makes such a great impreesion in my life. I appriciate everything you do!

History Repeats Itself.
I lerned this in History, and then later got an email about it, so i wanted to share it with you. It is very interesting.
Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.
Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.
Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Both wives lost their children while living in the White House.
Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head.
Now it gets really weird!
Lincoln 's secretary was named Kennedy.
Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln .
Both were assassinated by Southerners.
Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson.
Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln , was born in 1808.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.
John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln , was born in 1839.
Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.
Both assassins were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.
Now hang on to your seat.
Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford.'
Kennedy was shot in a car called ' Lincoln ' made by 'Ford.'
Lincoln was shot in a theater and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse.
Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theater.
Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.
And here's the kicker...A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe , Maryland
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.
Isn't that intersting? I found it kind of scary actually!

The Pink Dress

I know i havn't written in awhile, but i just got an email about this story a few weeks ago, and i wanted to share it. It is a great story we all should remeber daily.
There was this little girl sitting by herself in the park. Everyone passed by her and never stopped to see why she looked so sad. Dressed in a worn pink dress, barefoot and dirty, the girl just sat And watched the people go by. She never tried to speak. She never said a word. Many people passed by her, but no one would stop. The next day I decided to go back to the park in curiosity to see If the little girl would still be there. Yes, she was there, right in the very spot where she was Yesterday, and still with the same sad look in her eyes. Today I was to make my own move and walk ove r to the little girl. For as we a ll know, a park full of strange people is not a place For young children to play alone. As I got closer I could see the back of the little girl's dress. It was grotesquely shaped. I figured that was the reason people just passed by and made no Effort to speak to her. Deformities are a low blow to our society and, heaven forbid if You make a step toward assisting someone who is different. As I got closer, the little girl lowered her eyes slightly to Avoid my intent stare. As I approached her, I could see the shape of her back more Clearly. She was grotesquely shaped in a humped over form. I smiled to let her know it was OK; I was there to help, to talk. I sat down beside her and opened with a simple, 'Hello.' The little girl acted shocked, and stammered a 'hi '; after a long Stare into my eyes. I smiled and she shyly smiled back. We talked until darkness fell and t he park was completely empty. I asked the girl why she was so sad. The little girl looked at me with a sad face said, 'Because, I'm Different.' I immediately said, 'That you are!'; and smiled. The little girl acted even sadder and said, 'I know.' 'Little girl,' I said, 'you remind me of an angel, sweet and Innocent.' She looked at me and smiled, then slowly she got to her feet and Said, 'Really?' 'Yes, you're like a little Guardian Angel sent to watch Over all the people walking by.' She nodded her head yes, and smiled. With that she opened the back of her pink dress and allowed her Wings to spread, then she said 'I am.' 'I'm your Guardian Angel,' with a twinkle in her eye. I was speechless -- sure I was seeing things. She said, 'For once you thought of someone other than yourself. My job here is done'.. I got to my feet and said, 'Wait, why did no one sto p to help an Angel?' She looked at me, smiled, and said, 'You're the only one that Could see me,' and then she was gone. And with that, my life was changed dramatically. So, when you think you're all you have, remember, your angel is Always watching over you.
