JOHN MAYER! :-)

JOHN MAYER IS COMING TO WINNIPEG!! I am so excited. I went with my brother, Tom, today and we went to buy tickets. I am really excited. It's on April 26, so it's a bit of a wait.

I thought about what the year 2007 is going to be like today. I think it's going to be a really good year. First of all, I learned how to snowboard and it was really fun. I have a youth retreat at Bird River Bible camp next weekend that I'm really excited about. In March, I'll be turning the big 15 and I'll be able to get my beginners license in September. That is a little bit weird I do have to admit. Also in March my cousin Larissa is getting married, so my mom and I are flying to Ontario to go to the wedding. Then in April I have this awesome concert to go to. Then in the summer as always, there's the Winnipeg Folk Festival! I'm really excited about that. It's always fun. But that's all the new news I have for now.

Snowboarding...

Ouch. Is pretty much all I have to say. As you may know, I attempted to go snowboarding for the first time yesterday. It was pretty fun, until about 2:00. I wiped out super bad and landed right on my tail bone and it hurt soo bad. That's when I called it quits. I went to sit on some stairs outside to watch people snowboard/ski down the black diamond hill with all the jumps and stuff. I went inside after that and sat with Tim, Paul and Don for the rest of the day because Tim hurt his ankle, Paul hurt his face, and Don hurt his shoulder. It was a pretty good first trip. Now when I go in March, I'll kind of know what I'm doing. I still can't carve, but I can go down the hill without almost killing myself. But that's all I have to write about now.

Florida

It's been a while since I've written anything, but I did write three posts in two days. I was pretty proud. A bunch of people from my church are planning to go snowboarding on Saturday. I heard about it, but I never really thought anything of it. I have now decided that I want to go. I have never been snowboarding before, so it's a first for me. I hope everything goes well, and I learn quickly and don't have a sore butt at the end of the day, but I'm sure I will.

I miss the mornings that were so sunny and warm,
I miss the evenings that were cool and calm,
I miss sitting by the pool, with my feet dangling in.
I miss that bright and warm Florida sun,
I miss the days we spent together walking around in Walt Disney World,
I miss when we would come home and just laze around by the pool.
I miss it all.
I want to go back to Florida.

I know that "poem" isn't very good, but it was just kind of on my mind. I was just remembering waking up to +15 or 20 degrees celcius and just walking outside to sit in the sun. It was so nice.
That's all I have for today though.

My week...

This week has been a good week. I had three exams which kind of sucked, but they're all done and overwith. I think I did okay. I had Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday afternoon's off and then I had Thursday and today off.
Yesterday I went shopping with my mom and three of my friends. We had lots of fun. I got some awesome snowboarding socks. They're so comfy. Then we dropped my friends off at their houses and we went home. I ate supper and then after that my mom and I went shopping again! It was a good day! I got some new skinny jeans. They're pretty sweet too. And after we went to the mall we went to Superstore and I convinced my mom to buy Froot Loops. I had some for breakfast this morning, and they were delicious.
Tonight I am going to Providence College with my youth group. I've been there quite a few times and I've always had a good time. It's pretty fun. Tomorrow I think I might go shopping with my mom again. I want to find some heart fabric to make some festive PJ pants. :-)
Well that's all the news I have today.
