Well Hello
I am free tomorrow all day

I am not really sure what to do, but we really need to do something
And i need to tell you something

I was thinking about maybe Kids Kingdom at 1030?
maybe bring some $ if we get hungry
idk
but we really need to hang out
so call me!!!

~Nikki D~

Well I am back from vacation in case you didn't know
and it was pretty fun
i saw lots of monuments
including the FDR one
i was super pumped
there was a lot of walking
we went to the beach once
it was cold
but wavy
so it was fun
it was hot almost all the time
except during the fireworks
when it rained
but the fire works were pretty darn awesome
and yea

ps
I have something very important to tell all of you, but I can't yet, so please don't ask

TRANSPORTATION

So as most of you know, I got a moped! yay!
and i had to go through a big long process of getting forms and papers and take the moped course and such
so i took the course a few weeks ago
and i got the papers in the mail a few days ago
so we went to the court house and got the license plate
and my moped license
so I AM LEGAL
yay, so if you ever want to chill out or something
i have a way to get there!!!
yay

yet again....

So here we go again,
We are fighting again, or maybe even still...
It has happened before
but before, we had reasons
This time, we are fighting about absolutely nothing
yes, everyone wishes they could go back and fix things
But they can't
So we all need to move on
Forget those things
they were all stupid, we were young

History repeats it self
and looking back on our history as a group
do we really want it to?

Let's go over what has happened it the last few years

Well, in 5th grade I moved here, the posse included Sam B, Sam N, Elizabeth, Emily, and Aditi
we were all super tight
we even sat in the same seats everyday at lunch
6th grade was very similar
7th grade came along, and we were still really tight, we even accepted a new member of the posse, Jordan Thomas
We weren't all on the same team in JH, so we didn't always see everyone
Eventually, Aditi was starting to to get on everyone's nerves
We tried to live with it, but one day I finally got fed up and wrote her a nasty note
I gave it go her the next period, and she never talked to us for almost two years
Without Aditi to fight about all the time, we were really happy, hyper, fun posse
8th grade came, and were were happy, we still weren't all on the same team, but we lived with it, once again
We ended up with another member of our posse, Brianne Power
Emily made a new friend Katie, and they bonded over basketball and Vette's calves
We were good with it, until it seemed like she was favoring Katie over us
The group was not happy with being ditched by someone who she had known for a few months, when we had been best friends for many years
Things started to get out of hand
The posse had a meeting and we tried to talk things out
But that ended badly with things blown out of proportion
Sam N wrote the nasty note this time
and Emily left us
She eventually became friends with Sam again, but her and Jordan had it in for each other
and fought non-stop
We are now towards the end of 8th grade
so summer came and they still fought
but Jordan moved that summer
and they didn't speak anymore
Then finally, 9th grade
we were all super tight and finally thought we had found the final posse
the group we would have forever, we rarely fought and we were all so much fun
But boys started to take over our lives
and things started to change
We started to fight all the time
and fixing these problems was much harder than the problems in Junior High
One person always thought that they were right
and everyone else was wrong
and a bunch of opinionated people going against each other never really worked for us
We eventually got over it
mostly by righting nasty blogs, and not talking about it
but we finally realized that that was not the best way to go about things
we actually got to a good spot
and stopped fighting for a while
until now
when we start fighting about nothing
who knows why, but it has happened again
and I think we really need to talk about it this time for real
and not just say that we need to talk about it, actually do what we say we should

let's not let history repeat it self
some of these blogs are just like the nasty notes that have been written in the past
and is that really how we want to end things?
we have three years left of high school guys....
Let's get it together

Lately a lot of stuff has been happening in Iowa
the tornado in Parkersburg was terrible and it caused sooo much damage
its soo sad to see all of the houses that aren't there anymore
houses that people lived in
and now they're gone
they have nothing
and now
since it hasn't stopped raining for the last month straight
it is flooding everywhere
the whole town is all closed up
people have to evacuate
its really depressing
so many families are missing everything
I am so grateful that i have a great house
and great friends
and i don't like too close to a river
i actually have things
and a bed to sleep in and food to eat

I can't even imagine losing my house
what would i do?


well anyway,
school's out
summer has begun
this summer is gonna rock my socks
i just know it
but so far
its been really boring
and i haven't seen anyone
and i have been watcing my puppy
i have a moped but i can't get my license until the courthouse opens
and the pool is closed
and when it wasn't, it was rainging
so i hope this ends soon
and this summer can get STARTED!!!!
