I missed school GRRR

Not on purpose either. 

Around 630am this morning I crawled into bed. Well not really. I have homework all over my bed, so I had to crawl around it and squeeze myself into the corner, but it was bed nonetheless. My plan was to sleep for an hour, then shower, toss on some sweats and head out. Didn't quite go that way.

I hadn't turned my alarm back on (I shut it off on the weekends) figuring my parent would either wake me up or I'd wake up to her and my younger brother screaming at each other. Instead I woke up half an hour ago to my radio informing listeners of the explosions at the Boston Marathon. At first I thought it had happened yesterday and it was still morning. Ya, no. I found that out when I went downstairs and my brother was dressed. He's never dressed until right before we leave, so I knew it wasn't morning. Looking at the clock helped too.

My mom had the nerve to call me childish and say I'm throwing away my future. Really? I just spent the past two days studying and doing homework. I was looking forward to (and dreading) going to school. I was looking forward to getting rid of all my makeup work, and get out of the house while being able to see my friends. Dreading because I'd be taking two tests, and I'm a terrible test taker.

I GOT A JOB

So in my last post I talked about how I was thinking about doing a home baking thing. I went to the Armory to give Sergeant Nelson a cupcake. Side note: A couple weeks ago I had made cupcakes and brought some over for the guys but he hadn't been there that day and therefor didn't get any, which is why I brought one today since I had baked this weekend. Side-side note: They were maple pancake cupcakes with maple butter cream frosting. All homemade. He was in a meeting so I was waiting in the, I don't know, building entrance area(?) I met this woman who was waiting for a her meeting. Side note: Turns out that due to weather her meeting had been canceled and she just hadn't been told. We started talking and she told me that she was here to talk about a party for the US that she was planning for Sunday the weekend before the fourth. So we got to talking about and she was telling me about what food she was thinking of and, I kid you not, a lig...

How Rude!

Mother Nature must be in a terrible mood. Just today we've gotten 5-8 inches with more to come tonight. Wait a second *runs to window* fat flakes are still falling from the sky! Maybe I'll just keep this short and go skiing instead... Nothing special really happened today, but there was something that I wanted to share. I just can't remember what it was...I'll remember later! Well I found out that I won't be able to go tomorrow. It;s a real bummer cause I was really looking forwards to it. I mean really looking forward to it. I was so excited I couldn't sit in class! The fact that it's now an impossibility brings a sadness to my life. It'll pass by Saturday and it's not a true sadness. It's more of the fact that I can feel this great chance at something I might never get to do again, at meeting my idol, passing me by.  Oh well. Life's full of opportunity. Maybe one day this chance will come again and I'll be able to take full advantage ...

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,...
