The Homeschool Dance!

Hellooooo everybodyyyyyy. Life has been kind of crazy. I went to the fourth annual homeschool dance. It's always so much fun. I ran around traumatizing people by taking pictures until someone soniced my camera, which made the batteries finally die. Then I stood outside wishing I could take pictures. Emily still got some good ones though. :) I was finally convinced to go inside (after admiring a sunset and stepping in the mud) Sorry that this post is so short.
See ya later alligators!


PS here are some pictures from the dance.

My brothers and their friends. Hannah D took the picture.

My wonderful friends. Not quite sure who took this picture.

I decided to post this picture since I'm partially in it. Probably the only one. Hehe....just figured I should post it. Credit to Emily for the picture.

Everyone Needs Compassion

My feet hurt....really bad. But for a good reason. I was helping out at The Compassion Experience for six hours. The Compassion Experience is where you go into this tent and they have a ton of iPods with three different recordings on them, you choose which recording you want. Which child's life you want to experience. You walk up the stairs and into a room as the child starts speaking. You're standing in their house. Then you continue on through their life. The different places that influenced them.  These kids wouldn't have been able to finish school and go to college, their lives would've been awful if it wasn't for their compassion sponsors. All I did was reset the recordings and clean headphones, but so many people went out of there with a child that they wanted to sponsor. Those children's lives will change for the better all because those people experienced something. Now I'm not saying that you have to change these children's lives by sending them money. I understand that most people aren't able to work it into their budget. But you could also volunteer at an event. Give your time. Some people aren't able to do that either. So........pray. Pray for these children. Because Jesus answers prayer.

If you would like to sponsor a child or find out more about their events go to:  http://www.compassion.com/

(We see each other at a co-op and field trip kind of things pretty often atleast)......I also had a Doctor Who marathon, which was also awesomely AMAZING. :D I also want to say happy birthday to my friend Elisabeth. (It's on Saturday but I still wanted to say it!!!!!! She has a blog too. (I'll put the link down below) I really recommend it. (It's much less scatterbrained) Sorry to make this so short and random. It's late. ;)

Homeschoolers, stereotypes, and more!

Hellooooo everybody!!! Meaning Elisabeth. Haha. Anywho, I just feel like talking about some problems of a homeschooler. First up..... socialization. What is it with people and thinking homeschoolers are completely unsocialized? I mean just because we do school at our house doesn't mean we have no friends. Also, boyfriends and girlfriends. Why? Why do you need a boyfriend or girlfriend to be accepted into society as a normal person. Having a boyfriend or girlfriend is a very bad idea. Bethany Hamilton puts it very well: imagine that you and your BF/GF are two pieces of paper each time you hold hands or hug, kiss, etc. etc. you are stapled together, then you break up, and you are torn apart. It leaves major holes, rips and even pieces of the other paper. BAD IDEA! Especially at young ages. Wait. Where was I? Ahh yes the homeschooler's problems..... another stereotypical assumption is that all homeschoolers are nerdy goody goodies who all wear suits and ties everywhere and quote random textbook notes through their braces while looking down on you because you aren't as smart as them through their giant grandpa glasses. NOT TRUE! Yes, I know many homeschoolers who are very advanced, and I also know public schoolers who are advanced as well. I also have glasses and know many others with glasses and braces. But I know people who aren't homeschoolers with those too.  Stereotypes aren't fair. So stop using them! Okay. I'm done. Now you can escape my jumbled up scatterbrained post.
See ya later alligator!

Aloha! (Greetings in other languages are more fun.) Well it's been a while. (Very sorry about that.) So my month has been quite very extremely busy. I went to sports camp. Which is always quite fun. For those of you who do not know what it is......well.......it's a sports camp. Yep. That's my definition. I also went to an amusement park. The rides are extremely fun. The lines.....not so much. As for the people there: they lost their senses! The girls are quite immodest. Everyone is cussing. It's all about image rather than enjoying yourself on the rides. Ugh! Anywayssss. I'm very very very excited because......guess what! Come on. Guess. Okay. Fine. I'll tell you. My birthday is in exactly a week!!!!!! Yayyyy!!! :) Haha. Now, after reading this post you know why I titled this blog 'randomly brainy'
