BUTTTTTT- we now have my new favorite thing ever...a Dell something or other with a 15" screen...and A WEBCAM!!! I love it! I love making my face all wierd! So here are some things to make ya laugh!

Apple Pickin' with New Roots Crew :)New Roots has crews. Each "crew" is about 10 kids with an assigned teacher that meets at the end of the day in a crew room (assigned classroom) Here's some pictures of some of our crew hanging out on Halloween Day and apple picking :) This is our crew leader, Sarah RG.

Here's Pat. He's in our crew but hes also a professional photographer. He was getting some close-up shots for his website.Here's Iysis.Yeah, it was Halloween...so I was feeling festive. I went to school dressed like this, haha.

Prince Warez Mickie Sibil Maddweto Shazzarra AnzaisonOh yeah, I named my bass! Haha, well then. Over the summer I worked my butt off and I saved up to buy myself a cherry red Fender Squire. Here's my Prince and I. He came with an amp, cord, bag, tuner, strap, everything.Here's my ex band. Yes, I was in a band. Everything really blew up and it was all bad after that...but everything's okay now. It was a great experience and fun at the time and I really learned who my true friends were. It was worth it.

It was good times, decent memories, a cool song, fun video, and a whole lotta sweet pictures!

New Roots Fun!!!Robin and Evan. These are some of my friends from New Roots...they are wicked cool. I have a ton of pictures from New Roots, but these are some.Some painting the banner at New Roots became alittle more like painting ourselves! I did the black!Heres me and my bestest paining the banner for IthacaFest. Our Dean of Students had this on his phone and he emailed it to me.

Headshot!One of my bestests is a photographer. Mady took this for me, and I love love love it. One of my favorite pictures of all time, and get this...IT WAS TAKEN IN A BARN!

Anyway, I used this is run for Cutest Vegetarian. Unfortunately I didn't win, but it was fun anyways and alot of people voted for me, which was really cool!

Oh hello! A new arrival :)So this is Marley Marie. She's now like 6 months old, but what can I say...I've been busy! Marley is my friend Sarah's baby.I finally got to meet her at my friend "Uncle" Dawn's baby shower. That's a whole new story. Marley is sooooo cute now. She's got light hair and light eyes and is all around a beautiful little girl! I think she looks more like her momma, but you never know whats shes gonna look like :)

Hey everyone!

Okay okay, I know I keep saying I'll keep up with this...so I'm gonna kick butt and try to add abuncha posts (VERY outta order) before my parents get home and I have to can :P

Okay loveysss! I know I havent bogged in FOREVER but you will have to forgive me for I have been SUPER busy! First things first, I am at school. Yes real school. I go to New Roots now, awesomeness. And I'm in study hall so thats why I can be on the internet and blogging. This school rocks...hahaha. Another thing, we moved. Yeppers...and I will tell more about that laters. But we've been saying it and it happened. We now reside in Enfield...anyways. Gotta go to class!!!!!

YEAHHH!!!

Okay so no pictures yet...but I FINALLY got to hang with Adam! YEAHS!!! Happy dance! So first he kidnapped me from the library, we (me, him, and his mom) went to Garcia's for dinner and then we went to go see Angels and Demons. Which was a really good movie, btw. Just incase anyone was planning on seeing it. I was totally surprised cuz I didnt even realize he was in New York! I *kinda* tackled him when I saw him, but I dont care cuz I missed him WAYYY too much! So there...I dont really think he was too bothered, lol. We had alot of fun...and I really enjoyed being in his company.

Thennnn-I invited him to Elanee's birthday party. (happy birthday, elanee!!!) We all chilled around and roasted marshmellows...well kinda. Mostly we ate them "raw" or whatever you call an uncooked marshmellows. lol. Adam, Ravyn, and I hung out outside while everyone else went inside to be crazy. We sat around at like 11 at night listening to AFI and talking about anything. His dad finally picked him up at like 1am, I was so tired that by 2 I was asleep lol.

Acouple days later, Elanee spontaneously decided to go see "Dance Flick" and so I called Adam to see if he wanted to see it. I kinda figured he wouldnt want to cuz he would have thought it was lame...but while I was (IN MY PAJAMAS) at the neighbors he showed up at muh house. I was already over there so I was like "Hey Ravyn want to go see a movie?" That movie was so freaking funny and SO worth it cuz I am over-obsessed with dance movies, and so to see then ripped to shreds was somewhat entertaining. Anyways...we had a great time!

After that we all went back to my house and started messing around in the yard. Adam got my purse stuck in a tree...moron.
When we finallly got it out I realized that a bottle of black nail polish had broken inside of it and everything I own was covered in it. Oh joy...
I walked him down the street where he was meeting his family and some friends.

Basically...I have the best friend ever...step off.
:P

A VISIT WITH MY FAMILY!

While we were in Rhode Island, we made a point to visit my sister, Angelica and see her and her pregnant belly! Of course Jon and Javari were there and we had a great time with all of them and even had some extra visitors this time! We got to meet Angelica's mom, Evelyn and Angelica's older brothers.

My momma soaked up all the "Grandma" time she could possibly get! I think he looks JUST like her!!! Cant you see it?!?! Hahaha!

Javari has gotten HUGE since we last saw him! He is crawling like a maniac and making cute "muh muh muh" sounds at everybody! He can pull up and tried to eat my potato salad!!! He just loves company and everyone loves him!

Just look how much he has grown!!! Still as handsome as ever! Can't wait to have another baby nephew to play with!!! I think he has Angelica's eyes but Jon's mouth.Everyone got a kick outta my mom and Javari chillin together and blowing raspberries in each others faces!!! It was very very very funny!!!

And here is me with my amazing nephew! I just didn't want to leave him or my sister even after HOURS of visiting!

South Carolina Beach!!!

So I know I am kinda backtracking a bit but oh well this is muh blog so step off!

When we went to SC, we went to a beach. I couldn't swim that day but I did waddle out into the ocean a bit just to my knees and the rest of the time I spent with my mother. We walked along the side of the ocean while everyone else swam. We seriously found some freaky critters including live starfish and live sea urchin! I haven't ever seen that kinda stuff up close!!! It was sooo cool! I found quite a few funky shells!

FARMERS MARKET!

My mom and I spent a day at the Ithaca at the Farmers Market. It was Earth Day so there was a whole festival going on with TONS of people! We worked the Art In Ithaca booth and answered questions. Then we ate Cambodian food which was REALLY REALLY REALLY good!!!! And we just had a blast spending the day together!

Norman Rockwell Museum!

Man I think I forgot what real art is all about. But that was all refreshed when I walked into this museum of REAL honest to blog Norman Rockwell paintings. Some were so ridiculously real looking you wanted to touch the chunky paint! AHHHH! It was amazing! But-no cameras allowed so here we are squeezing together for a picture. BUT IT WAS JUST AMAZING!!! Anyone who has the chance to go-artist or not-GO!

South Carolina Baha'is!

So when we visited the George's in South Carolina we realized how AMAZING the Bahai Community is in the Hemmingway and Conway areas. Our family actually considered moving to South Carolina just to be with families like the Gores! Here are some of the youth we got to hang out with-Tavin, Isaac, Khalif, Quddus, Vahid, Thomas, Russel, and Danielle. And this time a ton of the youth were at Project Mona! I loved having some Bahai Youth to hang out with!

This is Me, Elanee, and Danielle. We hung out at the park after devotions.

We're just a bunch of crazy teens!!! Thats Isaac in green, Vahid in the sweatshirt. On the bench are me, Elanee, Maya, Danielle, Khalif, and Tavin falling over! Hahaha.

DEVOTIONS!!! Its just wouldnt be right for the passionate Baha'is to NOT break out an instrument! Russell kicks BUTT on those drums! Everyone shared there voices!

I was so cool to see that alot of people knew the songs without the songbooks!!! We even had some new Bahais with us, one person had declared and this was his first devotion! It was a rockin one!!!
