Under the Skin

I have received my school schedule. It stands thus: 1st Period: American Sign Language 1, Renee Boulac instructor 2nd Period: IB Pre-Calculus, Michelle Gruber instructor 3rd Period: IB English 11, Tim Curtis instructor 4th Period: IB Psychology, Leila Starwich instructor 5th Period: IB History of the Americas, Sarah Hollenbeck instructor 6th Period: French 300, Jenny Hallenbeck instructor 7th Period: IB Biology, Beth Stewart instructor Yes, I have two Hallenbeck/Hollenbecks, and yes they're back-to-back. But one's a Mrs. and one's a Mme. (Madame). I'm excited for all but two classes. The two I'm not excited for: Pre-Calc, because I don't really LIKE math, and French 300. I love learning French, I love Mme. Hallenbeck, and I love languages, and I think that French is an extremely linguistically important language for English-speakers. All the Latin in English comes through the Normans bringing us French. All that Spanish you think is similar to English, is

I haven't been very good about posting, so I should probably say something. So, here I am in Utah, taking Beth down to college. I'm at my Grandpa's House, typing away on my little laptop (I love this thing. I bought it and I've not been sorry yet). I know that Beth has decided that I'm glad she's going, but I'm really not. I'm going to miss her being in Young Women's with me. I'm going to miss seeing her in the halls at Inglemoor High School. I'm going to miss playing the piano while she sings just for the hey of it. I'm going to miss being with her. I really while miss her. Recently, my cousin, Julie, posted her typical day. So, I figure I should do something similar. So, here it goes. Even though school doesn't start until next week, I'm going to predict my school days as well as I can. I don't know what classes are what periods and such, but I'm going to do my best at predicting. You see, they handed out the

I have milked a cow. It was amazing. I have always wanted to milk a cow. And now I have. Did you know that you don't pull? Anyways, whenever I was writing a character who was milking a cow, I've wanted to know what it's like. Now I know.

I'm back from Girl's Camp! It was awesome fun. I served as a YCL which was absolutely amazing. They might be airheads and flirts and twitterpated, but I love my girls! And besides, not all of them were airheady, etc. Just some of them. I got very dirty, but I loved it a bunch. Oh, I also fell down a ladder. That was great fun. I slip while climbing down it, and thereby twisted/messed up my ankle, skinned my shin all the way down the ladder and bruised my shin and knee. It was pretty amazing. Camp started at 1:00 pm on Tuesday and I did this at about 8:30 am on Wednesday. So, it was pretty early in camp. But I decided that I was going to go on the hike with the girls on Thursday. And I most certainly did. Any questions? If so, I'd be happy to answer them.

This week is the official week. I am to be a YCL starting this week at Young Women's Camp. Yes, the name KitKat has been done away with. I don't actually know why. You see, the Church Young Women's Camp Manual calls us YCLs. That is an acronym for Youth Camp Leader. The Bothell Washington Stake has called them KitKats (Kounselor in Training, Kounselor Already Trained) for as long as I can remember, and probably before as well. However, they have randomly decided that we are now to be YCLs once again. At this camp, I will be YCL-ing nine 2nd years. I have devotionals and certification all ready. I am to be teaching them about starting fires with the aid of matches and extinguishing them. Young Women do not need to start fires without matches until their 3rd year. My YCL colleagues, Emily and Audrey, will be teaching clouds and water purification respectively. Stars will be taught by an adult, and first aid by the camp nurse. I'm a little bit nervous in some w

So, I'm trying to fix a little bit of a problem with scheduling (but the counselor hasn't emailed back yet), and I'm getting ready for camp. I feel like I'm a bad kitkat, because I feel like I should be doing more...but I don't know what I should be doing. Anyways, today was interesting in Sunday School. I was the only one there. So together, my sunday school teacher and I discussed the disciples coming into their faith after the death of Christ, Peter healing the lame man and the day of Pentecost. It was actually really spiritual, but it was a little bit awkward because I was the only one. We discussed how the disciples are representatives of Christ, and that they could be understood by everyone in the city of Jerusalem, even though it was Pentecost and most of the Holy Land was gathered in Jerusalem, and how this translates to today and the apostles being representatives of Christ. My teacher also told me about how she recently met a Hawaiian woman who witnes
