Random bits and pieces of stuff

WARNING: There are a lot of pictures

While biking with Nick we stopped at the Continental divide, and as we stood there trying to figure out how to tell the other that we should turn back this bike adventure hurts, we heard some snowmobilers. The sound alone was enough for Nick to launch into a rant about snowmobilers, who he, I now know, hates. Well they came up behind us and crossed the road a few feet away from where we were. For some reason there was a large group of them too, I mean since when do they don things in groups? Anyways, as soon as Nick says "They're a bunch of d**ches!" the biggest one goes by. He stops, shuts off the snowmobile and starts walking towards us. We freaked out! I was thinking "Holy fudge knuckles! He heard him!!!", just as Nick says,"Let's go South!" We headed South. Fast. The reason we went South was because it's take us away from the snowmobiler, and farther away from town. That's the reason we kept going, and it kept us from having to tell other how much pain the ride was bringing.

I felt really good the day after the bike. As long as I didn't really do anything.

I made cupcakes on Friday. They were just plain vanilla but with a surprise at the bottom. (That surprise was a chocolate chip cookie) Sadly we ran out of powdered sugar, and I couldn't thicken the frosting enough to frost the cupcakes. Instead I wound up spooning frosting onto it and just shoving it into my mouth, before it came off. Yumm

I really suck at cleaning my room. Throughout my whole life I have sucked at it. I cleaned all of the downstairs yesterday, but I can't clean my room!

I got a sweet pair of goggles and a snorkel yesterday. I am so ready for summer! And Hawaii


Yay...I know it's sideways...

Some picture's from Tuesday's track meet:

I had stolen Eddy's hat from Max. I'm not sure why Max had it... (Photo: Max)

Bay, putting a bag of melted ice on my face. We had a lot of fun playing with that bag of water (Photo: Max)

The start of my and Bay's "fight"..... (Photo: Max)


My ankle still hurts!!! I should get that checked out... Never mind  too expensive I'll just wait until my next physical or next serious injury.

Men at Work is actually funny! I didn't think that but after watching it for the past couple of hours, I've found it to be really funny!

This was my attempt at modeling. It wasn't planned, I just showed up at their house one night after skiing and this is what they wanted to do: You should check out the photographer's Facebook page HERE
Look at that sports bra! (Photo: Shoshana)

I couldn't keep a straight face! Shonna would tell me what to do and I'd realize how ridiculous I  look!
Arm muscle! Heck ya! (Photo: Shoshana)

Well I tried (Photo: Shoshana)

Hey! I finally fixed my bookshelf! Ya, one of the shelves collapsed under the weight ..But all's good now. Well not all, I still need another bookshelf. I only have one and half. you may be wondering about that half. Funny story (do you remember what I said about "funny story"?), it also collapsed  Except when it collapsed the entire bottom half was crushed. The top half came out perfectly fine though, and that's how I wound up with half a book shelf.

I finished packing! Now I just have to figure out if I actually have what I need...
Awww, Major wants to come with!

Wow, I am really tired.

HAPPY EASTER!! for the past hour and a half...

Good night (morning?)

UB Saturday

Today there was Upward Bound. We had TRiO day, which means that we visited BSU and took some sessions about college or preparing for college or careers, and partook in a college fair. This is how my day started. I woke up at 7:30  because Jake texted me good morning. The bus leaves the college at 8, I leave two miles away, my mom's at work and I'm still in my clothes from the day before with messy hair and craving a shower. 5 minutes later Jake is at my door. How'd I get ready in less than 5 minutes? I changed shirts, tossed a hoody over it, put my hair in a bun, and brushed my teeth at I found socks and packed  I wound up leaving a bunch of stuff at home, but I had my ipod which is all that really mattered. Bailey was there and so we sat together. She got to meet Colton and he complimented her on being chesty. I told him that I was the only one allowed to compliment her chest and Tim reprimanded him. Kinda. The guest speaker was funny and I liked the way he tie...

Does 2 hours count as an OD run?

Well if it does then I just did my first OD run. Btw, OD stands for Over Distance. I ran a total of 15.6 miles in 2hours 1minute and 8seconds. burned 1,467 calories, and managed not to hurt myself. Here's how it went: I started out from my house and ran along the lake to the fair grounds where I could enter the Mesabi Trail. Then I just ran along the trail for awhile in the cold, while it snowed, and was really windy. Then I decided I'd run along this branching of trail and  go to Deer River, it's only an additional 22miles I quickly lost the trail when it came out on a road and just turned around. From there I waved hi to a fisherman and his family and resumed running on the Mesabi Trail. Then I decided to follow another branch off to Gunn Park and from there run to my friend Max's. I was almost there when I realized  I was still only an hour in. So I did what anyone would do... I started running along random trails through the woods. I did come along a collapsed...

Tell me I can't

Two years ago I set an impossible goal, and while I didn't make it last year, I made it to state this year. I'm not exaggerating when I say no one thought I would ever come this far, but I set a goal and I worked hard for it. I know that to some, maybe even all, of you it doesn't seem like much. Here I am going on about making it to state and how hard it was and how rewarding it has been, when the Olympics are going on. I'm actually watching the men's slalom as I write this! But to me this is a big deal. This is my fifth year skiing, and it's been a long a road. My coaches love to remind me of how terrible I was when I first started! I mean they really have a good laugh at my expense (not that I care much, it was pretty funny). So to have come this far in what seems to me like a relatively short time, it's amazing. The reason why I'm rambling on about this is because I want to set another goal. Actually a couple of goals. What I learned is that if you...
