Strep! Whoo!

Bleh! So I got strep. Again. And this time the doctor says I have to get my tonsils taken out. Which I'd totally be ok with if I wasn't terrified of anesthesia.. I've never been put under for any type of surgery. My dad says I won't remember anything and it'll only take like 15 minutes but it still scares me. I guess I'm afraid that once they get me asleep I won't be able to wake up. Oh well though, I guess that's what I get for getting strep 3 times in the past year. and 3 times just about every year since I turned 12.. Hopefully getting my tonsils removed will help a LOT with that though.

At least I get to miss school though? Only "Jane" is pretty upset that I wasn't there yesterday and seeing as how I still don't feel well I probably won't go tomorrow. I'm sorry! I promise to be there next week though.

Bye guys!

Thanksgiving!

Well, Happy late Thanksgiving to everyone! Here's to hoping all of yours were way better than mine. I've decided my family has some serious issues. Anyway though! Onto a better subject

Black Friday?! Did anyone else go shopping? I did. Pure torture! Standing in line at Kohl's to buy one shirt for over an hour was ridiculous! But it was fun. I went with a couple of friends. Then we went and saw Stranger than Fiction. Which was a pretty good movie but I'd never heard of it. It's about the plot of a book I guess. I don't know. It was sort of weird but good. I'm glad we went.

I did decide though that one good thing about black friday is it means people aren't coming into my work! Huzzah! It was practically dead today! It made me happy. But overall today was amazing!

Have a wonderful day all you people reading my blog!

Why are people so dumb some days?

How is it that some people just forget to take their brains with them some places? As some of you probably know already, today I found out some quite disturbing news that has troubled me deeply.
Recently, a church was broken into, vandalized, and set on fire in a town near where I live. I hadn't given it much thought at the time because it's happened before, I figured it was just a stupid hate crime. However, this morning that thought came to slap me right in the face. At 7:05 this morning, I recieved a phone call from my friend who we'll call Jill. This is quite unusual as we generally just talk in person because she lives right across the street. So I knew this was important. I answered and heard news that shocked me. I was apalled. It turns out that one of my very dear friends had done those things to this church that I hold very dear to me.
At first, I was just in a state of shock. I didn't know what to think about what had happened. As I was talking about it to my seminary teacher, a girl in my class asked me what was wrong with me that I would LET my friend do something like this. (To be quite honest I wanted to slap her right across the face but I didn't) As I let myself ponder about what had happened I had a feeling of deep sorrow come across me. So I cried as I was driving between schools. Then I got to school and started talking to Jane. We were talking about what had happened and I began to get very angry. I can't believe that someone I trusted with my life would do something so disrespectful to something I hold so close to my heart. I wonder what he could have possibly been thinking to do something so horrid. The thought of him seriously disgusts me right now. I'll never be able to look at him in the same way again. I don't understand why he would do something like this. And I really want to know. Not only has he ruined the close relationship I had with him but as he is now a legal adult he will be tried as an adult. He faces at least 3 felony charges. Which could turn into 4 because he assisted a minor.
I guess the thing that makes me most angry is the vandalism he placed everywhere. To me, placing an upside down crucifix anywhere is incredibly sacreligious. Not only that but it hurts me to know that he would do something like this after just barely taking this religion as his own because of me.
Is it wrong of me to hate him right now? I'm so upset just thinking about it. I know that Jesus said to forgive.. but I can't right now. Can I be mad now and forgive later?

Bleh!

So, I made one of these the other day, and now I can't remember for the life of me what I had my user name as, or for that matter, what e-mail address I used to make it. So I can't recover what it was. But I did figure out what the web address was. Not that it really helps me much.

Today my mom had to go into surgery. It was really sucky. I was really really nervous. She had to be at the hospital at 1:30 and come 6:00 I still hadn't heard anything from her. Do you have any idea how nerve wracking that is? She finally called me about 5 minutes ago to let me know she was ok and she was coming home. So now I feel much better.

I really don't have much else to say. So, bye!
