TOP 10 STORIES OF '08!

1- New Years Eve/Day -- Best Friends for LIFE! Hank and I are inseperable. We do everything together, we're literally two peas in a pod. So, New Years Eve we decided to hang out, like usual. But, we had to babysit my little sister Sarah. We were both not really looking forward to it, causeI mean seriously it's babysitting. We ended up creating one of the most memorable moments of my life! :) We ate and drank (pop) away the night and had so much fun!

2- April 27 -- After a straight year of a hectic life for two people (other than myself) my life finally seemed to fall into place. The day Alex and I became more than just friends. It was rather awkward and ungraceful but in the end things turned out just how I wanted them to. Perfect.

3- May, June, July -- Summertime is finally here! Where my school life ends, my summer job picks righttt up! Unfortunately, I don't get any salary or anything like that for my job, but that's fine with me. If I never got paid one cent to do this job, I'd be more than satisfied. What's my job? Softball, I play softball pretty much 10 months of the year! I live, breathe, feel softball. PERIOD!

4- Late July-- Family vacation! It rules. Some people takes a vacation to the mountains or to the city or somewhere like that. Our family is very boring, we go the same place every year... that's right! Beach baby! For the past three years we've decided to vacation, no matter what. For 2 years we went to Myrtle Beach, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. One of my favorite places on earth. Last year, though, we changed it up a little bit we went to the panhandle of Florida. The Emerald Coast. Even though we could hardly get in the water because of a hurricane headed for Mexico, it has topped the list with my favorite place that I have ever set my little foot on.

5- August-- HIGHSCHOOL BABY! A small step for sophomores, juniors, and to a lesser degree seniors but a huge leap for freshmen! I mean everything changes in highschool, and my friends and I had pretty much already come to that conclusion. I mean we had put together through observation and watching. We all knew we would gradually slip through th cracks, find new paths. And so far we have all slipped apart a little bit. But highschool gave me, personally, a whole new outlook on life. It showed me that there can be more to your world than your little group of you and your two closest friends, and thats the only way you can survive. Expand your outlook. But I have also found that you will not survive without that one person or two that you can lay your life into. Keep them closest, everyone else at arms distance for good measure.

6- September-- Megan's birthday is in September and she's just growing up so darn fast! Jake (her boyfriend) Alex (my boyfriend) Megan (Foley) and I all are like best friends, adn so we all went out to dinner at Chili's, and then we went to see a movie! It was so much fun! We literally laughed until we cried, we made fun of how the boys eat and so they just stopped. Then we went to see The Dark Knight and it was 87,498,276,874,875,632,476,583,264,328,582,365,832,894,658,732 hours long! Not to mention it toally sucked... but that didn't even matter because we had so much fun! :) Love you Lil MEGGI!

7- October-- Halloween, Halloween, Halloween! Oh it totally rules! Becker came over and we were watching scary movies and screaming our heads off like little babies when my mom yelled to us that someone was here to see us. So, scared, we walked out into the living room to find that John McCain and Barack Obama were wlaking towards us. We ran back into our TV room and they followed relentlessly, and just about as they were reaching to touch us they whipped off their masks and much to our dismay it was Nick Frost and Tania. Oh gosh, after that we laughed until we just about wet our pants. It was awesome, they really got us.

8- November-- Tania's birthday is in November! For the past couple of years we have always gone to her brithday and had a whole bunch of fun. Usually, we just hang around at her house or whatever. This year she decided to change it up a little bit, we went to a hotel with, Megan, Claire, me, Jake, Alex, Matt, and Erica. We swam and had so much fun, then we went back to the hotel room and chilled. Eventually, the boys left and we stayed up basically all night! It was tight! :)

9- Middle November-- Basketballllll! I love it! So, of course, I was super pumped when it started. We had a tournament last weekend, we didn't do real great but it was our first couple of games we did alright. It was really just fun being out there again and to be in the flow of things. I can't wait to see what the rest of the season has in store for us. :)

10- Late November-- Have you ever had your heart broken. I'm sure most people have. What abput ripped out and literally jumped on. I'm pretty sure if you have ever been cheated on, you know what it feels like. I feel like that right now. It hurts like a whole bunch. But it doesn't matter, everything happens for a reason. God had it in his plan for me.
