Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, they both, oh yes, they both, oh yes they both reached for the gun!

I thought it was time for an update.
Last night I saw Surf`s Up. At first I didn`t want to see it because I thought it was going to be like Happy Feet. I was definitely way better than Happy Feet. I liked it. Then went to Taco Cabana. Chicken taco`s yummy but oh so messy. Took pictures. The best pictures are when you`re not worrying if you`re going to look good. :) heh.


Meow.

India looking beautiful. Myself looking....well....ummm....... Scott looking...I`m not quite sure and Shelley looking tan. Shelley`s pretty.

So i taught swim lessons today. I did them last week also. The three and four`s are my favorite. The older kids are sweet too but I like the younger ones better. So I have a weird situation. I teach from 10:30 - 12:00 and then I got to swim practice from 4:00-5:45 or I lifeguard from 1-5. So I`m never sure when to shower. Because If a shower I`m usually going to get all chlorinated with in 1 to 4 hours later.
I can`t think of anything else to say.
Love y`all

Bands are getting jazzier, Cars are getting snazzier

So Graduation was Wednesday and completely entertaining! Congratulations to all who graduated!

Tomorrow is my first day at work, I`m excited. They tell you too much in those classes, see I`m not even scared of someone drowning I`m scared of someone having a heart attack. After work is the awards ceremony! I still don`t know what I`m going to wear...

I`m listening to Laura listening to some guy playing the flute and beat boxing to Sesame Street on youtube....heh it`s actually pretty cool and quite ironic since I`m wearing my The Grouch T-shirt :D!

I can`t believe it`s June!

Love you all!

hip-hip-hooray!

guess who`s a life guard!

ME!!!!!
I had my scenario test (rescuing a live victim without being told what happened) today and I passed so I am now a "trained professional" woot.

come visit me at work ;)

My brother Jonathon got a red truck recently and the day he brought it home we found a red bicycle in it so my mom asked why he had it there and he said he needed to take it to goodwill-nothing more was said. The next day I walk outside and in our drive way there is a different bicycle just sitting there. Today i found two more bicycles standing in my garage. None of them had I ever seen before. So it`s the mystery of the bicycles at my house.

*mwa*

I was tagged!

7 random facts about you tag game thing.

*I want to drive in a taxi in NYC before I die.

*I love love love looking at notes, letters, and programs from the past.

*I love having an occasion to dress up.

*I`ve always wanted to go to Greece

*I`m generally quiet around really loud people and loud around really quiet people.

*I can`t stand centipedes and worms. Spiders, beetles and anything else is fine, but centipedes and worms disgust me.

*I know this sounds sketchy but I`ve always wanted to mud wrestle. heh.

So I had my first life guarding class today. 4 hours every day for two weeks *SIGH* I`m really tired. Eh I really don`t like the lady instructing it. The instructor left and one of the guys called his friend and was like "hey do you want to go to hooters and hang out at your house and get wasted?" What`s the attraction in that? Seriously can he really believe he`s so cool for getting drunk on a monday night? Or just getting drunk period? P-A-Lease. ugh. Sheesh! anyway once I get the certification I`ll be glad I went through it.

sorry guys, I`m really tired so thanks for putting up with my complaining. :)

I got home from the beach today!! It was a lovely weekend with the whole family. I truly had a good time. I`ll probably post more about it later when I`m feeling more energetic.

I`m off to bed-I`m exhausted.

I love everyone one of you!

*EDIT* I just realized I spelled truly like truely along with some other stuff. yikes. From now on no more posts while I`m super duper tired. lol *end of EDIT*

I know where he`s going, he`s going where he`s supposed to be going

Oh my goodness it`s humid!
I went garage sale shopping this morning with my mom. I bought elephant salt and pepper shakers. Ones blue and the other is pink, they each have a ribbon around their neck tied in a bow, it` really cut, totally un-needed but cute.

I also went to the mall today went to icing and claire`s looking for cat ears which I have wanted for several months. Neither of the stores had them. I`m walking by myself towards Macy`s to meet up with my mom when I pass Hot Topic....."they might have them...ha they might look like really kinky ears .....maybe not...should I....no....well they`re usually really nice workers in there.....gosh I feel really stupid walking in there with a shopping bag from icing though...oh well...naww...hmm" after that went through my head I decided to go in there. I was proud of myself I`m not going to lie. I`m not scared of that place I just always feel stupid walking in there. Anyway they were nice and the lady told me that they didn`t have any and I`d probably have to go to party city or some place like that.

those were the adventures of my day....so far..... :)

thursday: One is going to be so awesome!

I`m starting life guard training soon. eek! I`m nervous about the CPR even though everyone says it`s easy.

Love y`all
