Ready to be Done, but not ready to Leave
Well it seems that high school is finally coming to an end. After our long years it will all end with a walk across the stage. We’ll end our last day as seniors with The Relay for Life, it’s our last Hillcrest activity together and has became a tradition for exiting seniors over the years.
I may be ready to be done with high school but I’m not ready to leave HIllcrest. It has...

A Spring Break for the Bull
This past spring break I only stayed in my own bed three nights over the whole break. One of those nights was the Sunday before we went back to school so I didn’t really have a choice. I spent the entire Spring Break with all of my really good friends!
We did a lot of really fun things, some probably seemed stupid to others but we didn’t care. The most fun thing we did the whole break...

One More to Go
Besides being one of the crazier weeks of my life I’m a little excited. After I get done with finals this week I only have one semester of high school left! It’s weird to think about and anytime anyone mentions it around my mom she starts to tear up.
But even though it’s almost over I feel like my friends and I are making the best out of it! We went to every football game and...

Oh High School
The names of the people in this tale have been changed to protect their identities. This is a true story about the real lives of two high school students.
I have two friends that I have been close with for a long time. Their names are Robert and Karla.
The past year Robert and Karla started to get closer and closer. They became best friends. They would talk to each other constantly and anytime...

Worst moment of my LIFE!
I was suppost to work this past Saturday from 1-5. Our football team had just beat Parkview the night before and we all went over to one of the player’s house to have a 4-foot long victory sub! Oh, and there was a chocolate fountain there! We all stayed out really late! Marlee, Brittney and I decided to stay the night together and we didn’t get to bed until 3 a.m. then slept until 11.

Home Again!
I had an amazing time on the trip but i am so thankful to be home! My overall favorite city was Nashville. It felt like I was home and it was easy to get around. My second favorite was New York City. It had so many different things going on, but i could never ever live there! I think I’ll stick to my not so big apple.
I am so glad I got to share this experience with some of my closest...
Family and Fortune Cookies
Today as we pulled into Charlotte it started off with a rush! We got off the bus at Lowe’s Motor Speedway and went on a track tour. It was awesome!! I had never been to that speedway before and I had a great time! And I spent a pretty chuck of change on gifts for my family being the NASCAR lovers we are!!
After the tour my Aunt Lynn Ann, who lives in Charlotte, came and met me to hangout...
Captain George's
We pulled into Virginia Beach today with a very relaxing day ahead of us. We didn’t have anything planned to do, until later that night when we were going to eat. We probably didn’t have anything planned because nothing is open in Virginia Beach in the off season. Besides the whole 20 people we saw walking on the board walk it looked like a ghost town.
The girls, not wanting to sit...
A Veterans Story
Last night when we got into D.C. after we checked into the hotel we went to see a few monuments. We came to the Lincoln memorial and the Washington monument. After we had took a bunch of pictures as always! We started to walk over to the Vietnam memorial.
Marlee and I were walking with Caleb and as we were walking we passed by a small shop. All it had was military pins and patches and a few...
Subway Terrors
Since before we even left for our trip the thing that I most excited for was riding on the subway. I know that sounds crazy considering all the places we’re going but it’s true! When I found out we were going to New York that was the first thing I thought of.
We get to NYC and walk through Central Park, stop to take a few group pictures, then off to subway! Well we were off to Canal...
The one who got left behind
Today on the bus ride to New York from Cleveland, as usual made quite a few pit stops. We made one stop before we stopped for lunch which I stayed on the bus for. Some people headed to the bathrooms while Kelton, Michael, and Caleb played football. We all found it weird that they thought to bring a football and made fun of them.
But after everyone got back onto the bus Eli started it up and we...
Chicago Day Two
I know were suppost to blog everyday and I had every intention of doing that! But yesterday on the way to Cleveland the internet wouldn’t work. Then once we got to the hotel we could only get one of our computers to work! Needless to say I just waited until this morning to blog because I didn’t want to stay up until 2am to finish!
So now that I have that off my chest, on with my...
Chicago
Pulling into Chicago today was amazing! The sky line was absolutely beautiful and driving through downtown was so cool! I took so many pictures of the buildings and pretty much everything. If I’m this excited about Chicago I can;t wait to get to New York!
The stops to Chicago
Ok we get going this morning and get on the interstate by 7 am. We make it to the rest stop right out of Rolla when our bus driver annouces that we will be making a stop because he can’t hold it any longer. We pull off and a few of us get out and head for the restrooms. I walked in with Mehleena and we go into the stalls. As I’m starting to…..you know, someone pulled on my door....
Stressed Out!
Ok it’s Monday and I still haven’t even began packing yet! I still have to do all my laundry and I have to work today and tomorrow! I really have no clue what I’m going to do!? Oh and not to mention I still need to go get all my shampoo and toiletry things! This is so crazy! We are leaving in TWO days!! It still hasn’t totally hit me yet!
Oh my goodness I’m...
