Twelve.

Kids say the darndest things.

For instance, the other day at the after school program I volunteer at, the following lovely things were said.


Little girl: Did you get a haircut?

Me: Why yes I did.

Little girl: I like your old one better.

Me: Um, thank you?

Little girl: No offense, but I don't even like this one. (Then proceeds to repeat that three times)

Me: I think I get your drift.


or this one...


Other little girl: Why do you have pimples all over your face?


Oh geeze. Thanks ladies.


Or like my brother who claims that from the side my face looks like a flat screen tv. Ahaha. Truly these are all very funny because they are kids. But in that case, I wish to take back my theory that kids just say what adults are to afraid to. Because I'd like to have some self-esteem left at the end of this week. Oh children.



Every now and then I find reason to miss certain awesome things from the past. It's usually from Outtatown, which even after 3 years I still talk about like I just left. Here's a picture because they're fun in posts, but also because right now I'm missing the ugliest dog you've ever seen, who captured my heart in guatemala and I affectionatley nicknamed... "Ratface" (no seriously, it was affectionate).

Eleven.

Today has been a bit of a downer.

School, bad dreams (something I frequent), a bit of confusion, friends, family.
It's all covered.

Ten.

Happy New Year!

First, I shall attempt to feel like I'm aiming for something by listing some New Year's resolutions here:

+ go to the gym and work out at home 
+ always look to learn something
+ discipline myself in prayer 
+ devote time to the friendships I value
+ be the best youth sponsor ever 
+ grow in love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control
+ go to cambodia!

Second, I shall show off this massive knee bruised that came to be on my knee New Years day when I went snowboarding at Holiday Mountain.  I feel some pride when I look at it.  I'm not sure why.  The pictures make it look a little faded.  Really, it looks awesome in real life guys.  And guess what?  It's sooo going to turn yellow.
