Blog-ception anyone?

Hey'yal! So, obviously I've kind of been away for a while. Sorry about that. In almost all honesty, I nearly forgot I even had this thing! So, I felt like I should post something, but I don't know what. Then it hit me! I'll just write about how I write about stuff! At least until I can actually think of something to write about...here, we, go!

How to Blog a Blog (Kell's Way!)

 

1. The first thing I do is I watch the people around me. I see what they have trouble with, or what trends are happening in their life, just stuff like that.
2. Second, I write it down. I always have a notebook with me, and when I don't then I have my phone. If I don't write down what I'm thinking then it never gets remembered.
3. This is when the writing process begins. Half the time I write during my classes when the teacher loses my interest. Those make the best blogs.
4. Intro time! Once I have my topic I always write my intro first. Usually it's the easiest, because it's mostly just saying "Hey, today I'm writing about [insert topic here]"
5. Red, orange, green. If you haven't noticed yet, at the end of my intro I always have the here, we, go. I'll tell you the story behind that another time :)
6. Next is one of my favorite parts, the picture!!
   If you didn't see, I haven't put one up yet, but to everyone in the USA, happy late 4th of July!
    
   
7. Body. I like to do lists, so that's usually the format of my style.
8. Story time! If I put in a personal story of my own then I just write it, but if I'm using someone else's life story then I ALWAYS ask for permission to use it.
9. C'est fini. Once my list is done I wrap it all up in a quick couple of sentences then I end with my signature...

A Potential Relationship?

So if you remember I recently did a note on how to gently end a relationship. But what about starting one. How do you start a dating relationship with someone...maybe I'll find out...here, we, go.

So, recently I think I started a new relationship with this guy. Maybe. We've been texting and flirting, but he hasn't officially said it yet. We hold hands in the halls, but I do that with some of my friends too.

We've been texting on and off for the past week or so, and oh my gosh! He is so amazingly sweet, and would make a great friend. But I don't think he wants to just be friends...


I don't know what I'll do if he asks to be more. I know that prom is coming up, but I don't know if I want to 1) even be there, and 2) be there with a sophmore.

I don't know, this is all new to me, but if this does become something more then maybe I'll be able to help other people with their own relationships.

I'll be sure to keep you guys posted, and hopefully the next post won't be this lame :)

The Hunter's Games

Last sunday was Easter Sunday, and let me just say, I LOVE Easter. It's one of my favorite holidays. Why, you ask? Well, I'll tell you. Here, we, go.

So first, you wake up you can smell the scent of eggs being cooked mixed with bacon on the skillet. When you come down the stairs you see a basket on the table. In the basket is a bunch of candies; cadbury eggs, sweetarts, ring pops, snickers, taffy, and chocolates. In the back of the basket is usually a DVD, book, or cool/funny shirt that the parents or another sibling picked out.

After breakfast you and your family part ways, doing whatever it is you do in your spare time. Usually around one the rest of the family (aunts, cousins, uncles) come over for lunch/dinner. Some leave or come later because they're family hopping.

The lunch is a buffet style, some of the family stays and eats at the table (Grandma, grandpa, mom, and aunts) some do downstairs and watch TV while eatting (Dad, brothers, me, cousin, sometimes uncle) And some stay in the foyer area where there are couches and chairs (Everyone else).

After mostly everyone is done eatting it's time for the egg hunt. Usually my brother and dad hide them. The thing is though, our yard has barely any hiding places so the eggs are just scattered in the yards (front and back).

Let me explain something real fast. The youngest person in our family (besides the five week old baby) is thirteen, and the oldest is...thirty-four.

So, everyone who wants to play gets baskets and on the count of three leaps off the porch to gather the colorful plastic candy stuffed eggs.

My family doesn't stop at that though, we push and shove, and steal eggs out of others baskets, and tip some baskets over. It's all in good fun and sport.

This year my brother tripped and ripped a tear in his brand new jeans.

We come back in, take the candies from the eggs and put the empty eggs and baskets in a large tub so they're ready for next year.

Then we eat a little more and bring out dessert. Then we have a poker game downstairs at the game table. This year I learned how to play, and I was doing pretty good, until my dad tried to help.

Around ten everyone is gone, taking some food with them for the next day. And we are left to gorge on candy before going to sleep.

I love Easter, and I love my family. I hope you guys had a good Easter, and if you don't celebrate it, I hope you had a good Sunday. :)

Spring Break!

Some schools have already taken time off for Spring/Easter but my school hasn't, yet. However on friday evening spring break begins! Here, We, Go!

Spring break is ALL about the parties! Many of my friends, including Payton, are going to Florida for break. And what am I doing? I'll be here, playing video games, watching some TV, and painting sets. I'll probably babysit for a little bit if I'm lucky.

I do get to be a model in my friend's photoshoot though, but that's only if the weather stops being so cold. I don't want to get stuck in a short sleeveless dress with no shoes or jacket in the freezing cold again. I've done it once, and it was not pleasant

When school coes back into session I will get to hear all of the wonderful stories of beach parties, or shopping sprees, or "Oh my Gosh Kellie, you should have seen the guys there!" It happens every year.

Usually I just make up a story. The one I used last year was, let me remember it...Oh yeah! I went on a cruise and a dolphin jumped right over my head, then when we landed I slipped off the dock and almost got eatten by a SHARK!

I know, I'm hilarious right. Ha.

Sometimes I just get so annoyed with other people. I want to be happy for them, and I am, and they have a right to talk about their spring break as much as they like. I just get jealous sometimes. I have this whole list of things I want to do, my mini bucket list.

I've only marked one thing off, that was flying a plane. Yeah, I flew it for five minutes, and the real pilot wouldn't even let me do and barrel rolls or anything. :(

So, anyways! I just wanted to say that I hope everyone out there had/has/is having a good spring break. If you're stuck at home, you're not the only one. Besides, that's what the internet and TV is for, to keep you from being bored.

Pay has words to share...

Sadly I've been really down today. Um, my friend Payton's mother passed away last weekend. Here we go.

Recently it's been a crying-fest at Pay's house. As well it should be. Losing someone as important as your mother is very difficult. Pay is only fifteen, and in all honesty she shouldn't have to deal with this.

Other friends and I have been trying to make her feel a little bit better, with no preveil. I wish I could give tips on how to let go, but it all depends on the person and you. I think that friends help. We're all going to go to the funeral to be there for Pay. It's the least we can do.

Payton's dad isn't much better.

He was never there when she needed him. That's what's most hard about this for her...

My dad doesn't even care. He stood there like a good ex-husband. But I knew, it was all fake. He didn't shed a tear, or hold me. No, it was K, Brit and Sarah who took care of me. Thanks a lot pops. I doubt you even liked Mom. I want to say Thank You to Kellie, Sarah, and Brittney you guys are amazing. I know that I'm in a really sucky mood, but you guys understand. You brought me junkfood even though I'm supossed to be on a diet. You know what really sucks? That we didn't really see it coming. I just thought she was sick again. She'd been sick for so long. I guess she didn't want me to know. She didn't want me to worry about her. I should have known though, She was my mom for crying out loud. I should have known, but I didn't....

Mommy, I'm sorry. I know you wouldn't want me like this, and I'll try to get better. I miss you, stay lovely...-Payton-

 

 

 

 

I didn't know she was going to do that, but it's fine. And I will let my friends monopolize my page whenever they need to. Sometimes, you just need to get things off your chest. 

 

I love my friends, and I'd do anything for them. I hope that your friendships are the same way. Hopefully nothing else will happen, and my next post will be happy and helpful again.

Ending a Relationship... :'(

So, my friend Sammie is having some difficulty with a friendship. She used to be friends with this girl, Emma, but now everything that Emma does just gets on Sammie's nerves. So, because of Sammie, I'm going to talk about relationships mainly friends, but this could also work for significant others too. Here, we, go.

First I need to say something, I don't believe in crushing friendships forever. Because once a relationship is broken, it can never truely be crack free, no matter how much glue you use. But I do believe in distance.

Distance is a powerful thing, it truely is. I once roomed with two of my now dearest friends (Anna and Celsy) at a camp, with the camp started I wasn't too sure about them. Yeah, I liked them, but we weren't exactly friends. After living side by side with them though, now they're some of my closest confidantes.

The same thing can be said true with being apart from someone. I had this bestfriend, we were practically twins. I only see her every other weekend now, and we are slowly drifting apart. It hurts sometimes, but I know that she'll still always be my 'sister'.

Change is good sometimes, you just have to get past the rough parts before you can easily coast through.

Now, on to Sammie's problem with Emma!

So, Miss Samantha my tips to you are this...distance yourself from Emma. Don't give her the cold shoulder, but if she starts to bug you (and I hate typing this, but...) you should POLITELY excuse yourself.

If even in those brief meetings you can't stand the sight of her, or the sound of her voice, then I think it's time to end it. This is the worst case senario, if you can avoid it, then please, don't break it off with her. Becasue like I said, relationships never completely heal.

If you do have to end it though, don't be mean about. Because that could lead to hate, and hate is an ugly emotion. Don't plan out what you'd say, because then you'll start sounding like a hallmark movie. Just, speak through the heart, and hope that it all goes well. (I guess I'm the one sounding like a hallmark movie)

I'm sorry that I don't have any examples to give, but I've only had to break off a friendship once, and that was because she betrayed me. And, I'm not pround of how I acted. I treated my former-friend like garbage, pretending not to see or hear her, ignoring her calls, making sure not to cross paths in the hallway. Don't do what I did.

If possible, let your relationships take care of themselves, most will slowly dissolve (like 'sissy' and I) Others you won't expect to happen (Like with Anna and Celsey.)

My final advise is this, don't worry about. Let life run its course, if people fade then people fade. If you share your whole life story with your two roommates at camps, then you share your whole life story with your two newest friends. You just have to roll with the punches, and hope for the best.

Sorry if this doesn't help, but I hope it does. Like I said, this could also be true for a boy/girlfriend relationship, even a parent/child relationship.

Table Topics Fun Time!

I was going to talk about a really heavy topic, but then I thought to myself, "K, do you really want to be all serious on your day off of practice?" The answer is no. I'll save the heavy stuff for later, for now, we're going to play a little Table Topics! Here. We. Go.

(This guy really creeps me out.)

For those of you that don't know, Table Topics is a game. You read off a question then you go around the table and everyone answers. Yeah, I know it doesn't sound like that much fun. Well you know what? This is my page and I'll do as I want, so we're gonna play Table Topics. Let's Go!

Question One: What did you get into trouble for the most when you were young?
Answer: Well, I always picked on the dogs. Oh, and I never had a 'clean' plate at dinner.

Question Two: Would you rather spend a week in jail or serve two years of community service?
Answer: This is going to sound bad, but I've always wondered what jail was like, so I'd be locked away.

Question Three: What five foods do you wish were banished from the earth?
Answer: Umm...I'd have to say Broccoli, Peas, Star Fruit, Hummus! and...Mushrooms.

Question Four: Are you more likely to be guilty of gluttony, lust, rage, jealousy, sloth, greed or pride?
Answer: I'd have to say Pride. That's one of the worst.

Final Question: What Halloween costumes do you remember?
Final Answer: There are sooo many. Hmm, okay. I was about five or six my grandmother made me this cheerleading costume for Hallow's Eve. And oh my gosh, was it a disaster. It was red and white with a little bit of black in it. My hair, which was long at the time, was pulled sloppily into two pigtails, and I was not happy about it. I looked like the cheerleader from Hell.



Thanks for reading, even if you didn't, the next post will probably be much more serious than this was, but hopefully it'll make you think.
