Hello

I've been on vacation. Just got home today, I hope you didn't miss me too much :). I wish it wasn't over, it went by so fast. Oh well, at least it's still summertime. I can never get enough of the beach, maybe I will live on a beach one day. We stayed a week in Long Beach, Washington and that was great. There was beach access from the campsite, couldn't have been more perfect. My favorite part of Long Beach is the small town feel, most of the houses are nearly one hundred years old. For the second week of our trip we went to Seaside, Oregon. Seaside is one of the best cities I have ever been too, I love the town. I got to watch the Miss Oregon parade for the first time, it was fun but it rained that day so it was very cold. I only had tea once! I'm getting better. We went to a beach everyday and did most of the shops, it was a blast. I have to say that there was a outlet mall, so I couldn't help but spend tons of time there. Bought too many things to say, but lets just say I'm about done with my "school shopping" that is very good considering that I usually wait until the week before school starts. When I had extra time in the mornings and nights I did some reading....tons of reading. I read the new Harry Potter book and also a new book Beauchamp Besieged. It was a medieval romance... medieval has been my favorite lately. That was my first romance book though, and I thought it was good. I am very glad to be home, it will be nice to sleep in my normal bed tonight and use my own shower. I swear my cats lost at least five pounds while we were gone, they are skin and bones. They need a bath as well but I don't like to be the one to do that and I will probably end up doing it sooner or later.

Of course I got back to checking my sims on The Sims Online. Everything is pretty much the same, except for a few updates...finally the update I have been waiting for forever, clothes racks yay! I'm in sims right now actually, working on my cooking skill. Almost maxed cooking and charisma. I wonder if Trunks has played TSO at all since I've been gone...

I love Tazo teas...iced...mmmm. I have only tried a few but they are so good. So far my favorite is called Om. It's a kind of green tea. I like it must better than regular green tea. I like it much better than regular green tea. Om doesn't give you that weird aftertaste. I also really like one called Awake. To me it just tastes like normal iced tea, just better I guess. A few days ago at Starbucks I tried the one called Passion. In my opinon it was really gross. When I looked at the ingredients I saw that it has licorice and cinnamon in it. Maybe that is why. I would not really expect tea to have licorice in it. It was a hot tea also, so that might have made a difference. Even though I wasn't too crazy about the taste, it did smell really good. I did buy some other flavors that I haven't tried yet. I'll have to try them sometime. I tried a new one about a hour ago at my cousin's house called Peach tea and I thought that was really good. Ever since I gave up pop I have been drinking tons of tea. Which I think is a much better choice, but I don't think going to the bathroom every hour is a good thing. I made a lot of health goals this summer. No pop, no chips, no make-up, and no hairdryers. AAAHHH. It's actually been going great though, and I'm not really craving any of it anyway. Just need to stop eating gummy bears....

Hey, this is my first time writing this way, and first time writing freely like this for anyone to read. This should be fun. I want to start by writing a bit about me. I love to swim and play music. I like almost every sport, if im the one playing. I'm a pretty hands-on person. I odviously like to write, and I owe that to my love of reading. I love to read about non fiction history, journals and diaries. I am also addicted to The Sims Online . If you haven't played it, you would probably love it almost as much as me. But beware, it is very addictive.

Enough about me. I was to just say a bit about how I'm going to be writing. I'm going to try and write this like I would my regular journal. This will be basically just for me to read, or some curious friends or whoever takes time to read these. Sometimes I write about my day if something cool happend or if something boring happend. I will usually write about friends and stuff that goes on when I'm online. I sometimes write poem, come up with quotes, write down parts of a song, or talk about certain topics. I will make different kinds of lists, or write about a particular person. I might even copy pages out of my regular journal. I really love to write, and I consider this great practice and a great way to remember what I do everyday and what might have been thinking. I often write things I regret writing, so there might be some weird posts. I will most likely do a lot of deleting. I hope you have just as much fun reading as I do writing.
