Real Update!

I haven’t done a real update in a while, so I decided it was about time to do so.

Soooooo, I am so excited for school to start! Move-in day is getting so close. I cannot wait to see Brittany, Trina, and Amanda! I’m so bored here at home, and I know I’ll complain of boredom in once I get to school, but at least I’ll have my best friends to entertain me! lol. :)

I’m also extremely excited for my classes, even my statistics class though I might change my tune after the first few classes. lol. Only one class has the potential to be awkward (I can’t think of another word to describe it.), and that is chemistry with Britt and someone else who shall remain nameless in this post.

I am also thinking about rushing this year. I haven’t completely decided, but I think I’m still going to do it. Hopefully it will be a fun way to meet people.

Hmmm…what else?? I think that’s it about school, for now.

I guess I’ll continue with weather, since it has decided to start POURING rain right about now. I know we had the driest May and June on record, but I am really sick and tired of the wettest July and now possibly August on record! I was ok with it until the 15th of July while on my way to Morgan City to see Brittany, I got caught in the heaviest downpour I’d ever seen! I was doing 20 mph down the highway! I never got over 50 mph the whole 70 miles! Then the following Monday, I was attempting to bring Ashley to summer camp and got almost all the way there before we ran into flooded streets that our Civic couldn’t get through. Luckily by the time I had to go to work that afternoon the flooding had gone down. And then the following Sunday I went to church with my dad and Ash. Ashley had her summer camp performance, so we knew we’d be there a while. As soon as church ended we had to go across the parking lot to the rec center and cafeteria where the performance was going to be. Well by that time the parking lot was flooded! Ashley and I ran across the parking lot and got pretty wet, but my dad, who couldn’t run, was far wetter. We were the lucky ones though. There were others who had to make there way up to the church down the same flooded street (it was worse Sunday) I attempted to get up on the Monday before. And finally, my last battle with the weather was yesterday. It was about to rain and my dad asked Ash and I to go cover his motorcycle. We’d heard a couple low rubes of thunder, but nothing too close or loud. We had his bike almost covered when the loudest, sharpest crack of thunder and the closest, brightest lightning I’d ever heard/seen came out to nowhere. Ashley and I jumped and ran into the house so fast. The hair stood up on our arms and we were shaking! And my dad, yeah well, he just laughed at us. So, yeah. I’m tired of this weather! Ugh.

Okay, I think this suffices as a real update! lol. :)
