kinda a sappy saturday

hi y'all!

today was a long but good day, had orchestra rehearsal, senior pics and now I'm at my gpas house.

this week was fun, homecoming was really good.

on top of homecoming, i had many appointments.  I'm getting hearing aids, have the fitting in november  i also saw ENT, they did a scope (note mom did not tell me this was happening -_-)  but it was ok (they numbed up my nose and then put a camera stick down it- same path as an ng tube, but only to my mouth i got to see my vocal cords!), just a bit uncomfortable.  i have what they though i have and its easy to treat :) VCD/PVFM
i also had OT, looks like i will be in OT tell late december

next week i have my eye doctor, dr sing, reumatology, ot and dr chris

liz and i have monday off of school but i have docs :P

IN EXTREMLY EXSITING NEWS (lol soooo many spelling erors) MY DOCTOR AND I WERE SELECTED TO RECIVE A TEAM BEAD CARRIED BY AN OLYMPIAN!!! i got the email today.  how that worked was i wrote a short nonimation on how my doc shows olyimpic spirt with my care <3 they got reviewed and we were chosen :)

so today has been good!
annnnnnddddd SNL is on tonight- I'm tired and won't be staying up for it but ill watch it tomorrow :)

sappy saturday- winser castle and ambulances

hi y'all

hope you are having a good day!!!

today started out on a good foot, we all got up had food and loaded the car for a fun day at the castle.
we parked about 4 streets away and waited 20 min to get passes in (witch we did not end up getting...)

...because i suddlenly lost control of my face (talking and swallowing) then the rest of me, and long story short because i am tired, i ended up in an ambulance, er and finally a room to myself.
i was discharged and am at home now :)

very frustrating and very embarising :(

also very scary as this had never happened
they are not sure what did happen.  at first they were gonna run a bunch of tests, but then i got a bit better and they said it could wait tell i get back home to the states. (yay)

they had called a few specialists (from oxford, only the best for me :)  and i have there number if anything else happens before i get home

on the plus side i don't think we will be charged for todays events as there is public health care here and they did not take much info from me :)

when they were gonna run the blood tests they gave me a numbing cream so i wouldn't feel the stick (i don't think they knew i get blood sticks a lot lol) i love those creams for IVs.  the cream is very effective as i still can't feel my arm (haha)  but it also burnt my skin its all red and uncomfortable

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

on the other side my 2 year old cousin LOVED seeing the ambulance and had lots of fun playing with the toys at the hospital :)

always makes me smile
ok im gonna go to bed now

i think ill have a better day tomorrow...

sappy saturday... ELCA youth gathering version!!!!

last monday, i headed to my church and got on the bus to make the 26 hour trip from minnesota to new orleans of the ELCA (evangelical lutheran church of america) national youth gathering.

i had gone in 2009 and it was life changing

despite many buss issues on the way down, we made it there by tuseday afternoon.  we were assigned a very VERY nice hotel just across from the super dome were evening worship takes place

tuesday night- dinner with the youth group
wednesday- spent expiring NOLA, i ate an oyster!!!
wednesday night- opening 'dome' (dome is a MASSIVE church service/ worship- 34,000 lutheran teenagers!!)
thursday- we headed to the convention center for a morning of worship and a day of exploring the convention
thursday night- dome
friday- our day of service, we weeded at a local park...  it flashed flooded!! 6in of rain an hour!!! crazy but fun!!!
friday night- dome
saturday-  morning worship then bible study, then in the afternoon we went exploring more!!!
saturday nigh- dome
sunday morning- worship
then we loaded buses and headed home... but we had A TON of mechanical problems and lots of delays!!! i won't go into that hole drama!!!

more about the dome...
its a teenage friendly worship with 34,000 other people!! these things are massive!! they are filled with music, speakers, sermons, more music, more speakers and a BIG finish

ps i had some docs today, ill post about that tomorrow!

sappy saturday!

i woke up today and relized it was sunday... opps...

i don't have a theme for today... so beads!!!

on some of my boc necklaces i 'feature' a bead.  most of the time i put a charm in the middle of the string and put both ends of the string back through the bead, then string the rest on the strings separately, but today i got creative and put the bead on the string then tied both ends, and strung the rest of the beads.

then the string was to lose so i tied more around the bead.



this post makes NO sense.  oh well, i gave a noble effort... to be fair it is 10:50pm and if you know me, i lose my ability to think at 9...

dumbledore!

 “Happiness can be found in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”

HAPPY SAPPY SATURDAY EVERYONE!!!

had a good talk with some friends last night, was not feeling well and was just sad in general.  
they made me feel better <3


my hands are tired so I'm just gonna post more dumbledore quotes....

 “It’s the unknown we fear when we look upon death and darkness, nothing more.” 

 “It is important to fight and fight again, and keep fighting, for only then can evil be kept at bay though never quite eradicated.”

“It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.”

and lastly...
 “After all to the well organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.”
