Providence

today was long, but ok, i guess. once we arrived we took a tour of the campus- so small. it is about the size of the middle school i would guess? we then went to a class and chapel. the class was ok- boring, but the teacher seamed really nice, and there were only about 10 kids, so if you had a Q, you could ask. chapel was pretty awesome, too. a group had just gone down to Costa Rica on a service trip, and they talked about that. then we went to lunch, and the people were so friendly! we sat with 3 or 4 other girls, and they were all super nice. later they took us around to the dorms, which were HUGE! there were about 4 girls in a dorm. laundry is free, which is cool. then we went and talked to some people about financial aid and all. something that made me happy. the total cost is about 24,000 a year. if you score above a 1500 on the sat, and have a gpa above a 3.8, you can have 75% off!!! thats 18,000. which leaves 6. if i get the scholarship from valley, that is an additional 1,000 off. plus -500 bc i go to a reformed church. amazing. it would be awesome to only have to pay 4,500 for a Christian education. so ya, it was a pretty good day. and they are only about an hour away from here- very easy to get home for the three day weekends

first of the season

i got my first layer of red today! i went to the beach with amy and grace. the weather was perfect- warm, but the breeze made it nice. we didn't go in swimming, though. much too early and cold for that. we sat on a blanket and talked, and i ate subway, which was verry yummy.
now, i feel hot and itchy, though. i didnt know i was getting burned.
tomorrow should be fun. (not). i have to go visit Providence. it is something good to do, i just don't want to- especially not on one of the last days of vacation.

my random life

my fingers are blue- coloring easter eggs with a two year old is not a neat job!

i need to start homework tomorrow, and i dont want to.

i have an adorable little rosebush in my room.

i am going to work at julie's 2 saturdays coming up- hopefully i wont have much homework.

my sister is getting married in 2 months 11 days 13 hours and 30 minutes.

we have ants in our bathroom.

some of my teachers may be at my sisters wedding- including bras! kind of freaky...

i have been on the computer way too much this break,

but i have also been taking a ton of walks this week too.

im going (99% sure) to new zealand this summer,

my uncle thinks i should get an international license incase i get bored and want to go driving while im there- not going to happen, since everything is flipflopped!

i now own 2 pairs of shorts! hoorah. up until now, i have hated shorts, but the past two summers ive been wearing them anyways, and they arent so bad....

to be continued on a later date. here are some pics from when we were young'uns
