What do you call a birthday party, not on your birthday?
A PARTY!!!!!
As some of you may know, my birthday is on the fifth of July. But, because I am going to a highschool camp from the fifth to the ninth of July, we celebrated it today. Burgers and chicken were on the menu. Very tasty-THANKS MOM!!!
I did receive a blue m&m's t-shirt. That was cool. And from Malachi, who obviously stopped by the dollar store on the way over, some sidewalk chalk,bubbles, a sand pail and shovel, a squirt gun, and.....*drum roll*.... A JONAS BROTHERS BIRTHDAY CARD!!! It was obviously my fav present. Oh, and money from the Geisserts. A very thoughtful gift.
But, one downside was that, we had roughly two days to throw this party together, and so, because of that, we didn't have many activities planned. So, when groups of teens get together, what do they do?
They chill........that's right...for 3 hours we just sat around and chilled. Aside from grouping together in the hot sun for like a billion pictures by my dad, and watching me blow out some candles, we just sat around and talked.
Typical teens we are. Talking about......well, maybe I just wont say.There might be an adult reading this....
You know, it's kinda funny these days, but there is something I have noticed, at least where I am. I think you are more likely to get ratted out by a lurking adult than the teens you are hanging with. Just something to think about. It's not going to be one of your friends, no, it's going to be there parents, standing afar off who just "happens" to notice something, and then just happens to talk to your parents later.
It's NEVER a good thing when parents are talking in a little group afar off.
I've have said this before, and I'll say it again. It's IPPAC.
International Parent Plot Against Children
Our parents have joined together in a unified front against us. That's why there is slave labor*work with no payemnt*, and parents who abuse their parental rights. The list is ENDLESS!! They have also agreed to spy and report on each other's kids. Making it increasingly difficult to simply hang with your friends.
Mark My Words.
In other news, I saw Transformers 3 with Malachi and Alex. It was a very good action flick. Tho, it did go on a little long, almost three hours! There was good humor, not to dirty, no sex scenes, and the language was nto as much as the second. Oddly, enough, it seems like a lot of the language comes from his parents.
I give this movie a weak B+. Simply because of all the awesome butt-kicking robot action!
On a side note, I am a very,fortunate guy...and no, I do NOT like the jonas brothers....

So when life throws a curveball, what do you do?
You charge the mound and take out the pitcher!
So, in a shocking and irritating turn of events, I will not be going to Creation. I am very disappointed and uber bummed. The only silver lining I can see is that I will be able to purchase a lot more cd's now and STILL save money. We will be going to Montana to visit, but on the 22 of July and only for like 3 days. We will be able to attend Eric's wedding. That will be most enjoyable.But, just not the same as Creation.
I will not be able to see my friends or my wifey. Very disappointing.
I will be going to a Highschool camp July5-9. That will hopefully be fun.
There is an opportunity for a possible job that has come to my attention. Seems there is a jerky maker in a town just north of us, and the person who was distributing his jerky to Crescent City, doesn't want to do it anymore. The job would mean, once a week buying the product from maker, then selling it at stores in Crescent City, hopefully making a profit. Eventually to do this I will need my license, but my father has agreed, should we try this, that he would take me the first couple of times till I could drive.
She's still there, much to my surprise.....

What The Future Holds
Well, I can see I need to post more often, but when the your not motivated,well, your just not motivated.
Life has been moving on at a pretty rapid pace recently, for me anyway. I now only have year left in highschool. I am about to get a job(who doesn't say that). And now, after sorting through several different accounts of how to get a permit. So, hopefully I can get that done before the end of July. Family camp has come and gone. Fun as it was, I'm glad thats just once a year, otherwise my stomach just couldn't take it.
As for creation, I'm just not longer sure it's going to happen.An unfortunate circumstance threw off our plans and well, everything costs money.
Now that I am a senior, college is much closer than it has been. And, I don't want to go straight to college anymore. I want to work for a couple of years and maybe then look into college.
Samuel, fyi, I have met someone, and it's not a HB.....lol

Prayer
I am here, again, at my great grandma's side. She had a stroke while in the hospital recovering from ulcers. She is now unresponsive, and we know, this is probably her last week on this earth. Pray that it comes quickly and easy.
One of my best friends, Nathaniel Hemingway, has today fallen roughly 40 feet out of a tree and is now in the hospital with possibly a broken back or hip. Pray that he is not effected long term from this.
Just Pray.

Don't make people with heavy accents mad, cuz then they sound funny when they talk.
Yes, so, we were stopped at a gas station. We park, open the doors, get out, and as I am walking towards the store, some guy walks out and starts cussing at me. And I mean, f bombs....
I said "what"? Unsure if he was talking to me.
According to him, we hit his car twice with our doors. Now, how from inside the store from the opposite side of his car,he saw that we're not sure. And we never heard the cars collide. Anyway, he was not happy, and the woman travelling with him has her panties all in a wad about "informing the proper authorities"....lol.....They left soon after.
I am walking down the hallway carrying two watermelons in front of me when my little sister, god bless her, looks at me and says sweetly, "joshua, you look like you have big boobs"!!....lol.....what wonderful siblings I have.....
My grandma is doing better. Sorta. They found out that she had 7 ulcers in her body, and one of them, like, exploded, and caused bleeding in her. She's recovering in the hospital. Keep her in ur prayers.
I am done with school. I will be a senior next year. Kinda exciting.
BEACH PARTY!!

Nearing The End
At about 11:20am yesterday, my family picked me up from school, and we drove to Oroville Hospital to my great grandma's bedside. She was admitted to the hospital around 9am yesterday morning with severe bleeding. She was weak over the day, and stayed in the hospital last night. She will be 90 in December, but, really, we're are not sure if she will last that long.
So, here I sit. At my grandma's computer. Posting on fb. Posting on here. Waiting.
Please pray for my great grandma. That if she goes, it will be quick and painless.
