That One Thing

Don't you just hate it when that one thing you were looking forward to is cancelled. That one thing that you were excited for. That one thing that would get you through this week and the week after that. That one thing that relieves all the stress because your so anxious.That one thing that can make you smile.Well, that has been taken from me. That one thing. Mind you, its small and I should be thankful for everything else. But I was really excited for it. And now I can't go because its cancelled at least for me. Nobody really ended up wanting to go so its off. So now I have to find a new thing to look forward to this weekend and get me through this week and through homecoming next week. Update: I still don't have a dress, but apparently a lot of people don't. So maybe something might go my was and I'll be able to borrow a beautiful and flattering dress from a friend. I'll have hope. Hope is what gets me through.


Have hope.

Homecoming?

So I have homecoming in about 2 weeks. And I don't have a dress. And I don't know if I want to go anymore. I just dont want to feel awkward, my friends are really excited and want me to go with them. We are all going as a group, but they already have their dresses. Or have some idea on what they're going to wear. I could either go and wear my graduation dress or see if my friends have a dress my size and are willing to lend it to me or buy a dress somewhere whenever I have time. Or not go. I just don't know. But on the bright side, high school is treating me well.(knock on wood.) Or as well as i hoped. I still haven't found anyone cute. All of the cute ones aren't in my classes. :( But I'll find them soon enough. How are you guys? I miss you!

Please Pray

I know I haven't been on in forever, but if you could could you please do me this favor. I would like if you prayed for my uncle Paul. He's been in and out of he hospital since October and now he has an infected toe. Soon he has to have surgery to remove his toe and my aunt sadly doesn't think he will make it. And I really don't know what I would do without him. They both come over every Thursday to see us and I don't know what I'd do. Please Please pray. I was going to go sleepover there niece's house today but I can't because my aunt has been crying since she heard the news of the surgery. I've been crying too since I heard what might happen.
Please pray for him and I'll keep you updated.


All my love,
Shannon

An End. But a Beginning.

Reflecting on the title. This is the end. But its also a beginning of my new blog Summer Forever!! So I want to thank everyone who read, followed, and commented on this blog. I've met so many friends here and I hope that you still have at least a remnant of hope for me after being AWOL for months. But I finally did something about it. I'm really looking forward to this blog and I think I will do well.

Thanks for the good times and bad,
Shannon

I need help.

Okay I need some help from you gals (or guys?) Someone just reminded me that our end of the year scrapbook is due in 3 weeks!! And I haven't even gotten a scrapbook or even finished all of my entries. But I was wondering if you could help me find 'a timeless quotation as my motto-either as a summarization of my year, a description of myself, or a projection for my future.' I don't know, is it too personal? Well what I'm really asking is if any of you can find a timeless quote that tells like a general girls 14 years or a graduation. Please, I don't care if its not good or whatever. Maybe even some of you if you know any good scrap booking places if you could tell me.

Thanks so much!!
Shannon

P.S. I did make that new blog by the way. I haven't posted anything yet, because I'm still tweaking with the backgrounds and gadgets. Here it is, Simplicity.

I am 13 going on 14

It was my birthday yesterday; I turned 14. My friend came over the night before for my birthday. We went out for breakfast in the morning(I had delicious chocolate chip waffles) and then my sisters and I went to our school play with my friends. We went and saw the Sound of Music (hence the title) and it was hilarious! Missed lines, screechy high notes, everything! All my friends were there, C,L,J,K,L,L!  Then we went out for dinner with my sister's friend.

So it was a very successful day! And I'm really excited because my class and I are going to New York in the end of May! I'm psyched!

I hope you guys are as happy as I am or want to be.

Shannon

Plan

Okay,  So I do have a plan(finally)
and it goes like this: Be Happy, Be Proud, And Blog!

Okay But to start a blog you need a name and a URL and I was wondering if any of you have any suggestions?
I was going to do something like Simplicity or Simple and True. But I actually want people to read my blog. So if I want recommendations who better to come to, readers?!

So thats my plan and I am feeling better much better actually.

If I had a Happy wagon like Stargirl from Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli I would have 17/20 pebbles in it.

Always,
Shannon
