well let me just say, i will be the happiest girl on the planet when i finally mail this backstreet boy video. So i went to Walmart on monday to pick up a video tape adapter. Well the only one they had was a Universal one, so i figured it would work and it was only 10$. Well I get home and i dont really know what im doing with the tape or how to put the small one in, but i put it in and it fit. So i put it in the vcr and hit play. Well the fuzz comes on the screen, which i thought was good cause the beginning of the tape was fuzz for a few seconds. But then it stopped. The vcr cut off. So i did it again and it kept doing it. So i decided to take it out. Well it wouldnt come out. I hit eject about 5000 times and it was stuck. So i was like well thats wonderful. I must say i have been worried about that d*** tape since its been stuck. I kept thinking im not gonna get it fixed for a while and by then it'll be too late to send it to mtv. Well i went and found a vcr repair right up the road from me and it was only gonna cost $10.
He said he could have back to me the next day for sure. So i ran up there today and i waited for a bit and he fixed it right there! YEAH! I was ecstatic. Well he said i put the little tape in wrong, thats why it got jammed. But it worked cause he played it for me. So its all good. I came home and stuffed a manila envelope with newspaper and put the tape in with a sticky note that said "yes, there is stuff on this tape, but its fuzzy for a few seconds, dont worry theres something on it." I didnt want them to think it was a blank tape that didnt record. And then i put my plead note inside with all my personal info to call me back and then on the back of the envelope i put YES there is a video in here, cause theres so much newspaper around it. And i also put I LOVE BSB and KTBSPA!(Keep the backstreet pride alive). So its going in the mail tomorrow guys! Pray that the Lord wants me to meet them and make my life long dream come true!

BACKSTREET BOYS!
well i made my backstreet boy video to send to mtv!!!! WOO!!! finally after 6 years its done! so Christin came over and i took all my bsb memorbilia and laid it out on my bed, my bags, pencils, cups, shirts, and everything else. I had my poem to read, my fan book im in, my howie picture frame with the folder he touched and some other stuff to talk about. But of course the most important thing was my i love bsb pages and i took those and laid them out on the floor. I covered almost my entire room with them. So then i took the rest and made a trail on the steps up to my room. 2 pages on each side of the steps.
So i start out downstairs with Christin filming and I walk up and start talking. I talk about me and where im from and blah blah blah and then i was like, im one of the biggest backstreet boy fans you'll ever meet. And i start talking about my pages and how long its taken me, why i did it, and there double sided, the total and i even got the smallest page and showed the front and back. Christin zoomed in on that one. And then I had a BSB dvd playing in the background and went over some of my stuff and read some poems i had written. Some drawings i had done and all my posters. Then Christin talked and i thought that was the funniest thing ever. She was like oh my gosh i promise this is all real cause ive watched her do it for 6 years and all this stuff and how i deserve to meet them and how theres nothing left except that and how she hoped i would shut up finally if i actually do. And then she filmed me talking about what i want and how much i want to meet them and me practically begging. And then today we took it to graduation practice and got Megan Humble to talk cause she said she wanted to before. She was great too. She talked about when i threw Jillian into the locker cause she insulted AJ and how noble i was for being a fan for so long. Its an awesome video. Im proud of it. Now i just gotta buy a tape to put it in and ship it on up to New York. I found an MTV address, i just pray they watch it.
Oh and we went to Anita's funeral today. It was so sad. Im just glad they didnt have the casket open cause that kinda freaks me out. I didnt think i would cry either but once the service started, woo, they were pouring. I cry at any funeral just cause there so sad. I cried at Ashley's uncle's visitation and id never met him before. Its been a long day.

well today christin called me and said she had a buttload of errands to do and wanted to see if i wanted to go with her. So yeah i went and we ran around all day.
We also went last night to Cleveland to see Joey's baseball game. We got there with 2 innings left cause Christin got lost lol. But anyway the 3 of us went to Steak and Shake afterwards. He's so funny. I figured it would be awkward cause ive met him like once but it was cool. He was fun to talk to. The 3 of us had a super huge spiritual conversation too. It was great. I've been thinking about rededicating my life too and getting rebaptized. Oh yeah, my great aunt died last night. I found that out like 20 minutes ago. The funeral is thursday afternoon. So i gotta get home from graduation practice quick.
Oh yeah Christin is coming over this week to finally film my BSB video! YEAH! Mtv here i come! Im so stocked! I gotta get all my stuff out though, thats alot of stuff too lol. Pray that my video works!

Last Week of High School
Well this is a separate entry for the past week. I wanted today to be one by itself. Well let's see, we had our last chapel on Wednesday and Mr. Wood spoke. So i'm sitting there and we sang, The Greatest Commands and Someday, those are the only 2 I remember, there the most important anyway. Well, i sat there and though this is gonna be the last time i hear these songs sung just like this. That got me upset and i started to cry. I couldnt even finish the song. I didn't think anyone noticed until afterwards and everyone said they saw me. I didn't even think about crying during regular chapel, just because. Well it hit me, it's over. That got me upset. Well i figured i'd have a crappy day then, but then Mrs. Wood comes up there to talk and says all this random stuff. Well all of a sudden she goes, the bluebird flys at midnight, and i was like wtf? And right after that i was terrified cause Mr. C played his trumpet so loud from the back. He was dressed in a hat and sunglasses. Well then all of the faculty started to go towards the stage and everyone had on a hat, mask and sunglasses. They all got up there and started singing Zippity doo da, zippity eh, my oh my what a BEAUTIFUL DAY. Well i just thought it was funny, until i thought about it and i realized we were having beautiful day!!!!! Just like sophomore year!!!! I didn;t think we were gonna have it cause Mrs. Hood had said it took so much
work, time, planning and it was expensive. They usually have them every 4 years, depending on the class, but we got one! We were stoked!
So we went and there was a spa, movie room, DDR room which was awesome cause Mrs. Hood and Mrs. Wood faced off lol, a HUGE 22 ft slide, a blow up obstacle course, another blow up game, dunk tank for teachers, free cotton candy, italian ice, chik-fil-a and pizza, drinks, fishing, tye dyeing shirts, making jewelry and pic frames, sports and everything else. It was great. We made t shirts that look awesome and jewelry and all. Me and Ashley played volleyball too. It was so funny. We haven't played in so long, it was great. We also went on the slide about 8 times. It was the best thing ever. I had to con Jillian and Ashley into going, so me and Jillian went together the first time and she fell on my head, it was so funny. We went in 2's alot. I also burned the crap out of my elbow from it too. Everyone at school has strawberries all over them lol. It was a great day. No class until economics, which we did nothing. It made my day better.
And yesterday was Senior chapel, woo that was a hard one. I was on the front row and was sitting next to Morgan, which i shouldnt have cause it made me cry even more. But i was the first one to start crying. I had a list made out. I said something to the girls in Art 1, Mrs Hood and Mrs Richardson, Katlyn and Lindley, and Ashley, Jillian and Morgan. Well Morgan got me crying the most. And i passed it along down the line and more tears were shed. Well it was finally over at 3:15 haha. Then afterwards I went over to Morgan to give her a hug and her earring got caught in my ponytail! I was crying so hard and then we pulled away and we were stuck lol. It was so funny. And then Katlyn came over and made me feel horrible cause she was crying too. And Mrs Richardson came over cause i was the only one to say something to her. She was like, no im not the smartest woman in the world, and i was like oh yes u are lol.
Well we had the alumni dinner wednesday night too at the Chattanooga Golf and Country club. It was so nice. They gave out a buttload of door prizes too. I won 2 free passes to the aquarium! WOO! go me! i got one of the better gifts. I was excited. Not much to write about it though. We got an awesome gift bag and had a magician come as the entertainer. He was okay. No big deal. I gotta update on Jr/sr still!

High School Is Over
Well today was my last day of high school. It's over. It was such a sad day and week for that matter. Well i'm gonna talk about today first. So I get to school and we'd planned to let everyone know we were leaving. There like 10 of us, who piled into Morgan's jeep and drove around the school for a bit. Now this wasnt any ordinary drive. Everyone had on glasses or a mask, something to blow (horn or pop out thing), a party hat and had confetti or candy to throw at people. So her car holds like 5 people or so, but we put 10 or more in. Morgan drove, i was in the passenger seat with allison and ashley tudor on each leg. Then I think Katie, Tiffany and Christin were in the middle and there were like 3 or 4 people hanging out the back. We turned the music up so loud and drove everywhere. We went out around the senior lot, then down into the junior lot, up around the middle school and elementary and back in front of the high school. Everyone was staring and laughing at us. It was so funny. It was the best thing i've done in a long time.
Well then we had a party in first period Bible and had story time in AP English and Mrs. Roland wrote each of us a note and gave us a hershey bar. Then office aid, Chris Foster was sent to the hospital cause of kidney and back pains. An ambulance came and took him away. Well then in Art, Wesley and Lauren sat with me and Rebecca and we were literally so wild all class. It was so funny. Those are some great freshmen i must say. I got a picture with them. Umm..then we went for senior lunch. And this is where some drama started. Well we decided that we were all gonna be late or skip 5th period and have a long lunch and go to Panera and then marble slab for ice cream. Well i rode with ashley and she wasn't coming back cause she went to Savannah, so i was gonna ride back with Meenal and Jillian. So Meenal calls us and says the line is coming out the door at Panera, so we ended up going to Apple Bees, which took forever. We didn't get our food till 12:30. Well then we went to Pre cal and had 5 minutes left. It was the last day for me to wear my Kerry/Edwards pin and i just let everyone lay into me cause i knew i wouldnt hear anymore for a while. I just told them to say whatever they wanted and they sure did. Well then we went to Economics and fooled around. And then Mrs Hood said the saddest thing to us before the bell rang. She made us put up our right hand and repeat what she said. She said something like "I, promise to always wear my seat belt, vote in every election, (and Ben yelled out Republican and everyone laughed) and to remember that Mrs Hood always loves you." It was so sad. It made me cry. The tears started in that class. So then I get to Physics and every senior girl looks horrible cause they've been crying. They all came from chorus too, so that explained it to me. And then i saw everyone and it made me even more upset and we all sat and cried the whole class. Mrs. Lev put in Shrek for us. Megan Applewhite played with my hair for the last time. We all gave her a hug and walked to the high school and waited upstairs for the bell. Well Robert had left after lunch and came back for the last bell lol. So everyone was crowded around and he started a countdown that lasted like 3 minutes lol. He'd started from 10 and we'd all count and then it wouldnt ring, so we'd start back again and keep doing it, until finally we just kept saying 1, 1, 1 and then finally it rang and we all screamed. It was so sad though. I cried some more. It was a sad sad day. I just wish Ashley had been there with us cause she was gonna stay but her dad made her leave early. It was a good time i must say. We had some problems and tears along the way but it was the best thing thats ever happened to me and i'm glad it happened. Just like our senior shirts said, "Don't cry because its over, smile because it happened."
