Liz has given me the opportunity to do the Christmas Mime but I don't think I'm going to do it. I have a crazy schedule as it is. I thought I was busy in September but I was wrong, this is busy! We are spending an average of 10 hours a week at church. And 6 of those hours is play practices! The other 4 is just regular church services. Then you add in 6 hours of bball practice a week, soon to be more when start having games. Even though I'm not practicing I'm still there for most of the practices. Plus Bobby and Courtney are working at the flower shop with Uncle Steve.
It's too bad I can't get my permit. With everything that's going on with my knee I probably won't be able to get my permit until December. I pray I get to play bball in December. We have a tournament in Claude that I really really want to play in. Nicole goes to school there and it would be awesome if we got to play against each other. That would just be cool. Maybe Courtney will get her drivers license soon. It would be helpful.

Mime and B-day
Mime went well this weekend. We had 3 performances, one on Saturday night and two on Sunday morning. I only messed up in little ways. I don't think I messed up in the last one though. One of the guys in the mime was shaking in his solo on Saturday night. But he did OK. Putting the make up on was kind of a hassle though. We had to be careful not to get it on our shirts. White make up and black shirts just don't mix.
On Sunday we were all glad that it was over and that none of us messed up too bad. I lost my voice on Friday so the whole weekend I sounded either like i was going through puberty or a cricket on helium. It was annoying. Everyone kept saying to me " well at least you're a mime." The first couple times it was funny, but after about the tenth time it was annoying.
My b-day went well too. There were 18 teenagers and who knows how many adults. We played basketball for a while. It was boys on girls. The boys beat us. Before the game i had set my earrings and my glasses on a air conditioning unit that was on the side. During the game a ball went wild and hit the unit and my glasses broke and I lost an earring. Which kind of stinks cause it was one of the earrings Courtney gave me.
After the ball game most of us went inside and played apples to apples. That was definitely interesting. Then I opened my presents and ate cake. I got a lot of really cool things. I got about $105 worth in gift cards, and $65 in cash. And I got several pairs of earrings and a couple of necklaces. And then after I opened my gifts we played spoons. Nobody got killed thankfully. Ha Ha.
Then about that time people started leaving. So all in all it was a good birthday. Except for me not really being able to talk. That did get annoying. But other than that it was awesome!
(side note: I didn't get my purity ring because when mom and dad went to go pick it up, they saw that it was not the right one so the guy had to reorder my ring. I should get it today)

Birthday
Yesterday I got my birthday presents from Courtney. They are awesome!!! There were four and I had to read the notes that went with them before I could open them. I love her sense of humor. You can tell our dads were brothers. The first gift was a book called For Young Women Only. It's really good. I definitely don't know as much about guys as I thought I did. I also got a bookmark with the book.
The second gift was a mix CD with songs that we both like and have inside jokes about. The third was a pair of earrings and a necklace that she mad for me! They are awesome! The necklace is a heart that has a ragged line down the middle. The earrings are spirals. Both the earrings and the necklace are made out of silver.
The last present was a sock monkey that she made for me. It came with a tag that said " Hello my name is: Van the Monkey and I'm the perfect boyfriend." I thought it was hilarious! I hope she gets to move here.
My parents are giving me a purity ring for my birthday. I've been wanting one forever it seems like. I got to pick it out yesterday. It's pretty! I'm so excited that my birhtday is tomorrow!! I can't wait! I also have my first mime performance tomorrow. I think it will go well.

Mime
So this weekend I signed up to be a mime. It should be interesting. Our performances will be on October 4th and 5th. Which kind of stinks because the 4th is my birthday. So I'll just have to have my party that Sunday afternoon. I still have no clue where I'm going to have it. I can't think of any where I can have it that would fit all the people that I want to invite. Because I'm kind of tired of having it at the park. But I might have to have it there. Oh well.
Currently I'm trying to talk Bobby into praying about playing keyboard for the youth band, but he says he doesn't want to do it. I don't know why. It's not like God's going to punish him for praying about it. I just don't understand him. Or any boy for that matter. I guess I'll just leave him alone for now.
