The one good thing that came out of today was that I was bored enough to look through old pictures which I never have time to do! And since some of you are in them, I'm putting some up.
O
ONew Beginnings when we were all twelve I believe...ha ha. I really think its my favorite picture ever. I especially like how I look like a little Chinese boy. Whatever.
And this one would be a few years ago on High Adventure!!! So my brother is going on a High Adventure this summer for scouts and I heard kind of about it and what they are doing...ya not even CLOSE to roughing it as much as we did on that trip. I also almost laughed in Young Women's when they were talking about their girl's camp this year where they will be staying at a lake house and learning how to water ski. AT A LAKE HOUSE.

This was high adventure, too, me in the kayak and Chelsey and J.B. in the canoe. After seeing this I remembered how much fun kayaking was and that I still haven't been since then! Just kidding, Crystal and I went in Florida. But I haven't been since then and its one of my favorite things EVER. I am so going to go sometime soon.
More recent obviously...the day before Grace got appendicitis when she came to visit me and about 2 hours before my front tooth almost got knocked out! Ooh, I have to tell this story. because I find it HYSTERICAL. (My part of the story at least) Idk who all I told already so skip this if you already heard the story. So...I saw Grace last spring break, too! Lucky for me, our spring break was the week before hers, so I got home from a cruise, went to school for two days, and then my mom let me skip the rest of the week because she got there Tuesday night! It was awesome. So the first day she was there we went to a movie, hung out, took some pictures like this one. Then we did the same thing on Thursday. Thursday night we were on Photoshop messing around with our pictures. It was probably about 11 o'clock and the only light that was on upstairs was the one right by the computer we were sitting at which is a fluorescent lamp type of a light. And this is right around the time when all of those DISGUSTING "may flies" come out. Well, they call them mayflies here, but really they are mutated mosquitoes that can get as a big as...I don't know...a packet of Equal? Sure. Continuing on...so we are sitting at the computer having a good laugh at the pictures we were editing and a may fly appears by the lamp. At first it doesn't bother us, but then it is attracted to the light from the computer screen so it starts flying around us in between the light from the lamp and the light from the computer. So of course it is a bit upsetting to have a mosquito as big as a..packet of Equal...flying around our heads, so Grace is ducking down to get away from it and I reach over her head to turn the light off and she comes up and hits my front tooth with her head. Here's where it gets good. So, she thinks that her head is bleeding badly because it was a pretty hard blow. And while she is thinking that her head is bleeding, I'm sitting there with I'm sure a look of complete horror on my face. She asks me whats wrong as I stand there for a minute, and then I run into my bathroom with her following and see my teeth. My front tooth was COMPLETELY crooked and, no exaggeration at all, about to fall out. It was disgusting. At this point I was bawling because, I don't even know. It was traumatic for one thing, but I also thought I would have to get a fake tooth. Not to mention, who knows how long that would have taken. We go to a busy dentist. I might have had to go around looking like a hick for a few days at the least. So we decide to just go to bed because I didn't want to wake up my mom and have it be a huge ordeal in the middle of the night because there wasn't anything we could do about it anyway. In the spur of the moment I had decided to at least try to put it back how it was supposed to be, so now it wasn't crooked, it was just about to fall out. So, whenever I have people staying in my room, I get out our camping cot and sleep on that and let them sleep in my bed because I love sleeping on the cot. So Grace is in my bed and I'm on the cot and I'm worrying out loud that I will roll over during the night and my tooth will come all the way out. And so I decide that I can't go to sleep. And during this time, Grace starts to feel sick. Three hours later, I'm still laying awake and Grace has thrown up a few times, but said she would be fine, because that's around the time she was having her stomach problems. But eventually this kept going on and at about 4 o'clock I went down and got my mom and being a nurse, she thought something else was wrong so she called Grace's parents and got permission to take her to the E.R. where we went. But as she was waiting for Grace to get dressed to leave, she's sitting in my room and I thought I should probably tell her about my tooth. So I did, hahaha. Perfect timing. It was quite the...medical emergency. So she was able to get me a dentist appointment later that day. I was scared to eat anything, so didn't. Grace ended up having appendicitis so we stayed at the hospital with her until my appointment. Her mom was going to drive down and would be there that night. So we left while she was sleeping to go to the dentist who said basically that it was a good thing I had moved it back when I had and he put a metal bar on the back of my two front teeth to keep it in place. I had to come back the next week to see if I would need an implant though! So we went back to the hospital and Grace had her surgery at about 5 after it had been postponed all day, and her mom got there. We all went home Saturday morning and they stayed with us for a day or two and then drove home. And I didn't end up needing an implant. The End.
This isn't really an old picture...actually its only like a month old. But I didn't know if you had all seen this picture that was after Extreme Makeover: Crystal Edition, ha ha.
That's all for now...
P.S. In case you noticed the random picture titles, I didn't do that. In fact I stole most of these pictures a really long time ago I think.
