Isn't senior year supposed to be the best year of your life? Why do I feel like this year is going to be the worst year of my life? I used to be semi excited for the first like week, at least, and I dread going back tomorrow. I hate my classes and the majority of my teachers. I have no one in any of my lunches.

Canobie might as well be over. Almost everyone is gone and now it's just weekends. We always say we will see eachother over the winter but we never do. I'm not going to see alot of my friends until next summer and some people arn't even coming back next year so I won't see them agian. And even though some of them are older than me I consider them friends and I dont know what to do without them. I just don't know what to do...

Anybody have classes with me?

I don't know how this is going to turn out but I felt like writing so I am.

Let's see... yesterday I worked 2-10 in the village. 2-5 I was at Long Shot with Joe, 5-7 I was at Coconuts with Julie, and then back to Long Shot but with Kenny. Then today I was in the village again (Rock Wall) from 11-5. It was soooooo slow. The whole park was dead.

My stupid car got rejected and has like a million things wrong with it. Something about my driver's side tire falling off and my brakes letting go (probably not a good thing to be driving in, so it's getting fixed). I kind of got used to having a car and feel weird without it. But I'll get it back in a few days... hopefully.

Tomorrow I was going to go to Canobie but now can't because of my car. I have 4 passes that I need to use before the end of the summer and I don't know when I'll be able to use them but hopefully I don’t waste them. Then after close tomorrow night is our last cast party... Canobie Idol. I'm excited but not. It's going to be a good time but I can't help but think about the fact that it's getting closer and closer to my friends leaving for college. Kathy leaves Monday to go 10 hours away and Kay leaves at the end of next week for Keene. I just don't know what to do. I absolutely hate change but this is something that is going to happen whether I like it or not. I'm just not ready for it and I know that I'm going to be stuck here by myself. I know they will be back for breaks and stuff but it's just not the same. Ugh... I hate being the youngest. Everyone always says they will stay friends but it's not always how it works out. They are going to go to college and meet all new people. And I will probably be forgotten. My senior year is supposed to be the best but I don't see how it can be without my best friend of ten years and all my other close friends...

Last night I went to Nikki's house with Kathy to watch a movie. We picked Robots. It was soo good/funny. LoL. But Nikki was tired from work and fell asleep at like 10. I threww a nickel at her and she woke up looked at me and went back to sleep. LoL. And even though I couldn't breathe the whole night (allergic to Nikki's cat) Kathy and I had fun!!

Today my 6 months is up!! Woot woot!! Kathy picked me up and we headed to Canobie. I once agian had the village. Ugh... I'm hated. LoL. I had the damn rock wall... stupid game. It was cool out with the wind so I was sitting out in the sun and now my face is burnt! LoL. I had to climb the wall for the first time... omg I was sooo scared. Emily and Laura did my break and when I got back there were like 10 poeple at my game. I was like dude no one's played all day. LoL. So I got my harness back on and what not and Emily filled me in on who was next in line and stuff. Then I heard Laura say to the little girl on the wall, "Do you need someone to come up with you"? And of course the girl is crying and is like yeahh... So I'm like CRAP I'M AFRAID OF THIS WALL!! So I somehow managed to get up along side her. And for like 10 minutes I was like trust me just hold onto the rope and kick off. My arms were getting really tired and hers were too. She finally kicked off and got down. Then I was up there and I was uh oh now I gotta get down. I don't understand why me saying trust me, just kick off the wall from the ground didn't work, but w/e. I was much more comfortable when I had both feet planted firmly on the ground. LoL. I finally got down and I was like shaking but I did it and survived to tell the tale. Let's just hope tomorrow I get a better game!! Well that's all for today...

Yesterday I was opening day at canobie!! WOOT!! I was so excited. Kathy and I got there at like 11 even though we started at 12. LoL. We got our new name tags and then they told us where we were all going. For some reason Methuen got shafted!! We were all in the village. LoL. Kathy had Balloon Race (poor kathy), Javi had The Nikel (poor javi), and I had Long Shot. ugh I hate the village. LoL. I did nothing till about 3 and then all of a sudden crazy amounts of people started playing. I can only imagine what that game is gunna be like when it's a nice day. I got to do Rock Wall break so I was glad to get away from that game. It's so isolated from everyone else. LoL. They decided yesterday that we wouldn't open today because of the rain. Bummer. So now I have no clue what I'm gunna do all day. LoL. Well that's all for now...

Ok... I always say I'm going to start over and post agian but I never do. But I am going to attempt this one more time. LoL. TOMORROW IS OPENING DAY AT CANOBIE!! Woot! So now when I do post it will probably be about Canobie but w/e.

So today was very... whats the word... interesting. LoL. I WAS KIDNAPPED!! LoL. I love my crazy friends. For those of you that don't know... when ever it is someone's b-day (or close to it) everyone else in the group kidnapps that person. Well, I was kidnapped and I fell over in the process becasue Ryan put his sweat shirt over my head!! LoL... love you Ryan! They took me laser tagging!! It was so fun. LoL. And I got 4th place so I was excited lol. After that we went to the North Shore mall for lunch. Kayla and I split a brownie sundae with chocolate ice cream and hot fudge and whipped cream. OMG soo good. LoL. It was wicked funa dn thanks to everybody for putting that all together!! Love you guys!! LoL.

Hey Kay... what'cha gunna do wit all that blue all that blue upon your shirt? I'ma gunna work for Kurt, work for Kurt, Kurt, work for Kurt! AHhhaaha go Javi for comin up with that! LoL. Well that's all for today...

Ok so I typed this crazy long post last night and then x'ed it out by accident... so let’s try this again

Friday~ SNOW DAY!!!!! YaY! Not that I did anything. LoL. But I did get out of sign language with Preston long block!!! :-) (Ok so this didn't happen Friday, I think maybe Thursday, but mentioning Preston made me think of this... Some day last week Preston was teaching us new signs and what not. He was teaching us an alternate sign for "Halloween". Then he asked a girl to sign it. The sign is near your eyes but the girl had her palms facing out, the wrong way, and it looked like she was doing a disco dance. **I know this is confusing if your not taking sign language so if you want me to show you I will LoL** So Preston starts laughing at her and DOES THE DISCO. I sit rite in front of his desk so I had like a front row seat. I started laughing so hard that I was crying. Now every time I see him I laugh.)

Saturday~ I had to get up early for track... yuckie. But I didn't really do much because Thursday I pulled my quad coming out of the blocks for my time trial in the 50. I went to the weight room and biked. Whoa what a practice. I don't really remember what I did the rest of the day but I think we decorated the tree and stuff.

Sunday~ I did this weird thing with my aunt, her friends from work, my mom, my cousin, and her to-be-in-laws. We went to this really nice hotel and had tea and like pastry things. Although I didn't really like much... it was fun. I was also able to meet my cousin's to-be-sister-in-law, who is an American Sign Language interpreter. It was cool because we were signing back and forth and stuff. After that we did this like "walk through" thing. I think it was done by like a museum or something. And like you walked through all these houses with like different years in history from like the 1800's to the 1960's. It was kinda cool.

Monday~ We had a varsity track meet and beat Lowell!! Nice job to everyone that competed. Especially my best friend Kayla with second place!! WooT WooT! Don't worry you'll make states no prob the next meet!! I had to stay because I was an alternate but it was kinda ok because well we kicked butt. LoL.

Tuesday~ Yay I had preschool long block!! :-) LoL. I love those kids. So we had departure and we took the kids down to the ramp/ ice rink area. For some reason i was run up and down the ramp with them. LoL. But it was fun. One of the boys, Patrick, kept kissing my hand and I was like omg what do I say to this kid. So I was just kinda liek Patrick we don't kiss people while we are in school. LoL. This really didn't surprise me becasue this is coming for the kid that the other day said hey sweet heart to me. LoL. He's so cute though!

Wednesday (Today)~ So I was pretty hyper today before lunch and through long block. **DayQuil will do that to a person** Anyone that had lunch with me... if you thought I was bad then I was 20 x's worse in Chem long block. Apparently while I was "whispering" I was very loud. And then I fell off my chair which was also very funny. I was leaning over to get my purse that was on the floor and I completely fell out of my chair. Ahahaha what a day...

Random Stuff~
*Well I found out that I am in the varsity meet Monday and I am very scared. LoL. But w/e.

*Tomorrow I have an assembly block 5 for ASL. Which is psycology with McCormick and I have a test. I guess I'll just have to make it up. LoL.

*I have also decided that I really wish I had a boyfriend. I dunno if it is because the majority of my friends have boyfriends or girlfriends, but I've never really cared just all of a sudden I do. Lately I just kinda feel alone and I dont really know why... it's hard to explain I guess and I don't even think a boyfriend will help that but I still wish I could find some ya know?

Well I guess that's all thats really goin on so yeah...

This is my rant... if you don't like rants then don't read it

Well I haven't posted since the summer so I guess I'll post. So school has started… fun, fun. It has pretty much sucked and I already want to leave. I hate my classes and the majority of my teachers. For some crazy reason I've never had so much homework before in my life. I'm sick of everything including losers on my bus that piss me off. I'm sick of sophomores that make up stories and I'm sick of people that talk shit (also sophomores). I just got over a cold and now have this awesome stomach bug thing. Now instead of not being able to breathe, I feel like I'm going to throw up. Personally I'd rather have a stuffy nose. And every time I stand up I get wicked dizzy and feel like I'm going pass out. I forget what class I was in but I stood up and like lost my balance. It's quite annoying.

Friday August 19th through Today

FRIDAY- Talk about an awsome day turning into the worst night ever! I went to the mall with Kayla and Ryan during the day. They got posters and I got some earings. We went back to the car to put the bags down but ended up going to Best Buy. We were walking around and I was like THEY HAVE DDR SET UP!! And was all excited because it was the Playstation one that had the song Never Ending Story, that I memorized at my cousin Mel's house. I did it like 5 times. LoL. It was great. Then we left cuz Kayla and I had to work. So I get to work and Im goin to Lobster Trap (if u don't work there that is just about the worst words you will ever hear out of your boss' mouth other then Whac a Mole, Froggie Fishing, Golf, or YOU'RE FIRED). I heard that it was a really slow game and that I'd be bored out of my mind. Well who knew that the first game of the night would make everything a complete disaster. I set this lady up and this guy up with their lobsters and then went to hand out the hammers but the guy was like I won earlier with my hand I don't need it. And I was like you really do u could hurt yourself. Then I hear BANG OUCH MY HAND! And see this crazy lady holding her hand. And I was like do u need me to call first aid and she was like if I had hit my hand any higher I would have broke it. And I was like I can call first aid. And she said somethin to me and walked away. I was like hm ok? So Josh (the assistant group leader thinger) came over like right after it happened and I told him. And he calls Kim (one of the bosses) to let her know just in case anything happens. Well she comes back later and was like asking me all these questions and stuff. So now I'm freakin out and thinking I just lost my job. Krista (the group leader thinger) came to do my break and I went to the Lake Arcade to talk with Kayla. When I was walking back Kim, Donnie, Greg, and Matt (all the bosses) were waliking and Donnie yelled out "GET HER". And I was like GAH!! Kim by later agian and I had to fill out an accident report thinger so if she comes back and is like blah blah blah canobie didn't do anything they have it filed. After talking with Kim I felt a little better and went on with the night. I made two 14 year old boyfriends which was kinda funny cuz I had nothing else to do. But goodness kids these days know TOO MUCH! LoL.

SATURDAY- Family Reunion at my cousin's house. It was so fun! I got to hang out with Mel. And we went four wheeling and "hiking" in the woods.

SUNDAY- Went back to the reunion in the morning and went four wheeling agian. I got to drive :-P It was fun! But then I had to get ready for work. I wored 2-10 in Jamie's building which rocked my socks! LoL. I was there with Cathy and then at 6 Meghan came!!! YAY. But then this crazy lady yelled at me cuz I wouldn't let her try agian for free. So I told Jamie about it and she had to tell Matt just in case she went to Guest Services or w/e. So I went on break and told Krista. And she was like O no Ashley and I was like ya people hate me. Then later on at night Kim came by and I told her and she was like man people aren't being too nice to you lately and I was like I know huh? But nothing ever happened... as far as I know. Jamie sent me to Fishing Well at 9 cuz Jessie's knee was really bothering her and she couldn't keep getting up and down and what not.

MONDAY- Worked 12-6 in Jamie's building agian!! YAY. With 2 15 yr olds but at 2 Jessie came!! YAY. It was fun!!

TUESDAY- I read 100 pages cuz u know I might wanna start my summer work sometime soon. LoL. Then worked 6-10. We got there and someone said that they wasted $2.50 driving to work. And Greg (boss) says it costs you $2.50 to get here? It costs me $2.50 to start my car. It was so funny. LoL. Then we started talking about gas prices and how Emily gets the cheapest gas but its to far away to get. LoL. I was at Water Gun and it was so craazy! I had like every working water gun going all nite. No 2 player games. It was madness.

TODAY- Rode my bike to Ryan's house and hung out with him. Later on we went to the mall for back to school shopping. It was a good day!! Then I came home...

Ok so I’m going to start on Sunday, August 14

I drove to church in the morning and then I drove my brother to Jay Gee’s to meet up with his friends. I decided to stay and I went on the Go Karts and went into the batting cages a couple of times. The first time was really bad but then I was hitting them all. Go me. LoL. I came home and Kayla was outside so I went to talk to her and we ended up going inside my air conditioned house to cool off. She was telling a story and it ended with saying that they got slush at the end of the night. And I was like I want slush now and she was like so let’s go. I was like where? And she goes Howe Street, the best place for slush. The nice people we are we asked our mothers, brothers, and brothers’ friend if they wanted anything. They did, so Kayla came up with a GENIUS idea to eat ours first then get everyone else’s so it didn’t melt. It sounded good to me. So we ate ours and then got the rest of the slush. Except the guy filled them up like over the rim and two of them were looking kind of melted already. But the guy gave me a thingy from Dunkin Donuts to put the 4 cups in. So whatever. Let’s just say the ride home was me screaming every time Kayla hit the brake or turned and her screaming back at me to tell me to stop screaming. I got home and I think I had half of my brother’s friend’s slush on me than what was left in the cup… along with some of another one. I got home and my pants smelt like pina coolata/ watermelon… kind of weird mix. After that Kayla and I had to go to work. I was at Water Gun but I don’t remember where Kayla was. (Sorry Kayla) It was the night with all the thunderstorms and we ended up closing at 9. We were driving down the road and the road had steam coming up off it… because of the rain. And Kayla was like DID YOU SEE THAT?!? And I was like what??? And she’s like something keeps jumping out in front of my car. And every time it happened Kayla like *high pitched* screamed. We finally figured out that they were FROGS. (Minus the one mouse) They were jumping everywhere! It was kind of creepy.

Monday
I had to work 12-6 and Ryan was working too!! I was at Skeeball and he was walking up toward the game and I was like YAY RYAN!!! But he’s like I wish. And I was like where are you? And he goes Frogs (poor Ryan). It extra blew because it was rainy and cold. Skeeball was good as usual and on my break I hung out with Ryan at Frogs. His dad brought me and Brian home. Ryan ditched me and stayed at Brian’s so that he could go to the movies. (**love you Ryan**) So I was alone with Ryan’s dad but it was cool because we talked.

Tuesday
I don’t remember what I did during the day but I worked at night and I was at Can Alley. I found out that they were shooting a commercial at that game and I was like AHH I don’t want to be in it!!! They got there at like 9 and closed me and Ring Fling. (Which I must admit was pretty cool) Thankfully they had someone playing a Cast Member and I was like SCORE!!! And the girl at Ring Fling and I got to go home. Kayla was thirsty and I was so hungry I was shaking so we stopped at the gas station like we do sometimes. So I got my snack and Kayla got her crazy apple soda thinger. We were in Theresa’s car and they wind shield wipers randomly went off. And Kayla was *high pitched* screaming and I was laughing hysterically. She switched it and thought she shut them off but they went again. It was so funny. She finally figured out how to make them stop.

Wednesday
My mom was home and we went to my grandmother’s (most likely for the last time ever **sadness**) to finish up cleaning and stuff. Then we went back to school shopping!! YaY!! LoL. We had our last Cast Party (Canobie Idol) tonight!! **Sadness** But it was fun!! We got year books, ate from Friendly’s, and watched some pretty funny performances!! I got home and talked with Kayla for a little while and did laundry at 1:15 in the morning because that’s what the cool kids do!

Today
Kayla was working at 10:45 and I was working at 11:45 so Kayla brought me with her to work. So I was up partaying last night and had to drag my butt up in the morning. We got there and were all (Kayla, Emily Paulah, (LoL) some other people and me) just talking. Then it was time for them to all punch and so I was like I will find out where Kayla is then go hang in the Café. She was going to the Lake Arcade and needed to be trained so she stuck around for a little bit. Then Matt (supervisor) asked if I wanted to go to the Main Arcade. And I was like I don’t care. So I punched in and went down to the arcade. It was a day of firsts let me tell you. It was the first time I ever had anyone give me a plastic cup full of pennies, nickels, and dimes and ask me to count it all out. And it was the first time I ever saw a guest pick up the phone, dial it, and answer it when it rang. LoL. It was so messed up!!

So ya that's all...

Let's see I dont exactly remember the days or whatever so I guess it will just be stories

I think it was last Wednesday that Kayla, Liz and I went to Canobie. It was so fun!! Liz beat the system on the Psycho Dome. LoL. I was on the inside and apparently that is the side where you get squished. So liz was like holding onto the bar and she goes " I BEAT THE SYSTEM" and we laughed the rest of the ride. Liz wanted a Candy Apple and Kayla and I wanted some ice cream. So Liz gets her apple and we started walking to get some ice cream. We got it and then sat down at a table to eat. Then Liz goes oh ya that's right everytime I eat and apple my throat closes up. So I just kinda looked at Kayla and then I was like so why would you buy one. She ended up throwing it away when she was like barely able to talk. We went to go visit Emily at the gift shop in Castaway Island. Then Jackpot. (Earlier in the day I forgot to take my watch off at Castaway Island and my watch stopped. So I was gunna play games until I had the 75 tickets to get a new one at Skeeball) But Jackpot was closed and Kim and Greg were fixin stuff. Liz wasn't feelin good so we all got in the car and Kayla drove her home. When me and Kayla got back we met up with Christine and her sister and Sara. (oh ya and I kicked Sara's butt at Skeeball!! haha luv ya Sara) Me and Kayla sat in the front seat of the Canonball... it was crazy fun!! Over all it was a good day.

I was at Balloon Race. I had to write out like a million refund slips cuz the game was being retarded. I got to see the back of the Canobie Can Can. LoL. They sang a song from Chicago and I was like YAY. We used to have crossword puzzles there cuz the game is usually slow but they took it away. And now there is like computer paper stapled together that says " Balloon Race Art". And people drew and wrote random things in it. It kept me occupied for a while and was pretty funny.

I was at Skeeball during the day for the first time. It was kool. Kurt (group leader) hung out there for a while and laughed at me while I sat peoples watches for them. He was like u dont get paid to do that stop doing it. But I did. I mean this lady asked how to set them so i explained it but that wasn't good enough and I couldn't get her to go away so I just set them.

I was at Coaster Chase (yuck) and lucky Ryan was at Chuckaball. DARN HIM!! So I got there and opened up and there was no one win prizes. I was like AHHH. So I called Jamie (group leader) and she found them in a trash bag but no Homers just the girls. She was like just take Hommer off the display so I did. And then I had to restock, sweep, and windex because it looked so bad. it must have been too busy the nite before to clean. I watched Brittney and had some guy ask me if I was one of her dancers... even tho I wasn't dancing just lipping the words. W/e weirdo.

Last nite I was at Duck Pond and Cathy was in the building with me. It was fun. It was a busy building so the nite went by pretty fast. Kayla came to see me on her break and asked if I knew how to turn on the fan at Water Gun. But I didn't so on my break I went to go see her and asked if she asked Josh (group leader) to turn the fan on and she said no. So I was like fine I'll go find him is he doing a break and she was like ya. So I went to go leave and we walked in her game and I was like hey Josh can u turn the fan on for Kayla? She was mad but hey she stayed cool. At the end of the night Kayla and I were in the parking lot by her car talkin to Steve about how annoying people are. And a girl parked next to Kayla joined in and we talked for like a half hour. It was kool.

Today was my day off and I've just been bumming around and decided to post so ya...

THIS IS ASHLEY'S SCHEDULE!!! COMMENT IF YOU HAVE THE SAME LUNCH/CLASSES WITH HER :) THANK YOU COME AGAIN!!




PS KAYLA <3'S WRITING IN CAPS!! :)

this is Kayla.... I am at Ashley's house & your not so there :P

So last nite I worked 6-10. Kayla was taking and I was on my way out and she was in my house. I was like whoa?? Then we (mainly me) were talking to the sky for the storm to pick up. There was a guy across the street looking at us funny but thats ok. LoL. So we were driving and it started to rain. We got there and Kayla was like figures it's raining and the parking lot is full. So she just parked at the first place she saw. And we walked up in the rain. Of course when it was time to work the rain stopped but w/e. I had Main Arcade agian and Kayla had Wooden Nickle. I was with the same kid (Justin) that I was with when I had money issues and he broke the door. LoL. It was SOOOOOOOO dead. On my break I went down to go see Kayla and she was going on break. So we walked around together. The midway was EMPTY. It was madness. LoL. I came back and was with Abbey (maybe its Abby? I dunno?) until Justin came back from break. I got my money all set at like 9 cuz I was that bored and had a monkey load of quaters to count. I tried to help Justin windex ( we have to windex every game and the doors... if u haven't been in the main arcade... there is ALOT to windex. So I locked my door and started windexing and the phone rang. I was like. Ahhh and I had to like unlock the door and grab the phone. Then a couple kids came in so i couldn't help Justin with the cleaning. So the whole clean up sheet is initialed my Justin. But w/e. Abby came up and was like I love you! And I was like why? And she was like cuz ur money is all done! (It was sitting in the bucket on the counter). And I was like ya and even better... I'm even. LoL. it was funny. She brought my money down and then back to help us close and what not. But in the mean time she was singing "I'm singing in the rain" and running/ spinning around the umbrella that just was at one time swirling over his head. It was funny. Then I found Kayla and we left. We stopped at the gas station convenient store thinger cuz Kayla needed Tylonel PM. I was like Tylonel PM is convienent so it should be here. So we walk in there in our uniforms (red shirts) and I had on my name tag. When we left there was a guy on a motorcylce like staring at me and he was kinda creepy. He went and sat on the table under the umbrella. I told Kayla he needed to get a head start on a good place for shade. And Kayla was like it's night time what shade? And I was like no he needs a head start for that shade tomorrow. And Kayla was like ya there are just so many hobo's at the gas station near Canobie. LoL. Then we were behind this truck and at first we thought it was soda and wood. So we decided it was a Home Depot truck (even though it wasn't big or orange) that was gunna fill up the machines at home depot and had some extra wood in it. Then we discovered it was wood, soda, and dollies. When the truck turned we were like now we can see what kinda truck it is. but no of course it was blank. I guess we will never know...

OK so Imma gunna start from Wed the 13th

I worked at Skeeball with these two kids Al and Brandon. And it was a kinda crzy night. Al shut the sliding door on my hand and Brandon throw a prize at me for me to catch but I kinda missed it. And it hit me on like my collarbone. It kinda hurt but w/e. Then I'm with someone trying to get them their prizes and Al is behind me pulling my ponny tail up and like the people were like staring at me it was kinda funny. We found out we were staying open till 11 but Al "had" to leave at 10. Around 9 he decides that he wants some girl's numbers and gives them his cell phone. They take off saying that they will come back. 10 oclock comes and Al "leaves". Then at like 10:30 ish he came back and was like "did those girls ever come back?" and we were like "nope." So then Brandon checked all the machines and what not and we closed up. We were in the parking lot and Al was like "hey guys have my phone?" and we were like "umm they never came back"

Thur- I got to work and Kim told me and Sara that we were extras... at the time I had no clue what that meant. So then Kim (supervisor) asked me if I wanted to go to Skeeball or Gun Ball. And I was thinking it really didn't matter cuz either way I'd be with people. Sara wanted Skeeball so I went to Gunball. I knew two of the people there (there were 4 of us which was totally unneccesary because it was so dead). One I knew from school (Kelsey) and another I had worked with before. Josh (group leader thinger) spent like the whole day with us. It was great. He's a kool guy. Brittney came on and the now 5 of us were dancing and singing along. Then at like 5 another person was added and we were singing along to Bozo and doing the Hokie Pokie. "I'm talkin bout I'm talkin bout the strongest kid in the world". LoL. Darn show. Pretty good day over all.

Fri- I was the Main Arcade cashier. It was cool. I mean I sat there and made change for people. We got the call that we were staying open till 10:30 wait maybe it was 11? No I think it was 10:30. W/e. It was so cool I got to sign to someone!! YaY!!! Then it came time to count my money. Haha how funny that was. The first time I did it I was 100 under. Then I'd be like 40 over. And I couldn't figure it out. So I called Kurt (group leader thinger) down and he was like "is that the number u got?" And I was like "ya at one point in time" and he was like "when i checked ur money earlier that's what I got. So I was like ok and wrote it down as my total bank. Then I had to fill out this thinger that was like how many nickels? how many dimes? how many quaters... ect. And I totally filled that out so wrong. Then the other kid that was there for when things broke down... sorta broke the door when we were finally closing the game. He pulled down on the chain and the chain snapped. I don't think it was his fault though. I think whoever pulled it... it was gunna break. We were so late getting outta there. When we finally did Kim was like what took so long and we were like "Ashley had counting issues and the door sorta broke" And left.

Sat- I was at Bonaza. *stupid game* And Ashley had a mental break down. Abby (group leader thinger)said to watch out for counterfit ones. And I was like counterfit ones? But w/e. So I go about my night and then I come across two dollars that looked really weird. I was like hmm. Just as the people left Kurt (other group leader thinger) walked by and I was like " I think I have counterfit ones" Assumming he would know how to check them. He looked at them and called Kim (supervisor). So i was like darn it they must be counterfit. Then he came back and was like "you have a description rite?" And I was like "ya". And for what ever reason I now decide I am going to cry. God knows why. So Kim comes down with the marker thinger and is like "nope these are good". And she (or maybe it was Kurt) told me to take a 5 min brake. So I got myself together and came back. Then the office called to say we were staying open till 11. Which was expected cuz of the fireworks and the mad crazyness of people that were there. So she said to go to the back of the game and call. So I finally had a minute to myself and went to the back of the game. My brother answered the phone and I said "Don tell dad we are staying open till 11 tonight" And he was like "Umm I can't dad is in the hospital." And I was like "What?" Then I heard people and was like "Donald I gotta go". I came out and kurt and Abbey were there. I was like "hey guys". And stayed at like the opposite end of the game. And Kurt was like "this isn't a secret meeting you know". And like made an "X" with his fingers. So I went over and talked with them for a while. Mainly about Harry Potter and how it wasn't fair that right when the new book came out they decide to get rid of allowing us to read at work. LoL. Abbey was said cuz she was on like page 20 something and wanted to read more.

Sun- Kayla and I went to go see Willy Wonka. So good!! LoL. We went to Borders and Kayla wouldn't let me check page 606 of Harry Potter. But thats ok my info is confirmed. I know alot of what happens in the new one. Dang spoilers on lj then confirmed by one of my friends who read it.

Mon- Talked to Ryan in the morning and found out that another group leader (Krista) knew about my breakdown at Bonaza. Word travels fast around there. I guess Ryan was talking about it for w/e reason and Krista said she had heard about it. So now Canobie prob thinks Im retarded ( Main Arcade thinger) and a worry wart/ freak out kinda person (Bonaza). Alex came over in the afternoon and then agian at like 7. We were playing baseball and we found out that "Toothless" was on disney channel. So we watched that and then at like 9:30, when the movie finished Alex went back to Kayla's.

Tues (today)- Alex came over at like 11 and is still here now (3:16). We played some games and then he started playing Halo with Donald so now I am posting. I have to work tonight at 6 with Kayla and am praying that I am not in Abbey's group (unless it's Skeeball) considering her group hates me. (The whole Main arcade thinger and Bonaza thinger.

Today well maybe it's yesterday now? Considering it's 1 in the morning? W/e. I just got back from Raft Races at Canobie. It was cool. We watched some races, all hung out ( Me, Kayla, Meghan, Sara, Darren, Emily, and Ryan), and watched some people get thrown in. LoL. One of the games teams game in 3rd but rides won it all. That's all rite we'll get em next year. But over all it was pretty fun. Around 12 I was getting kinda tired and the party was kinda ending and then Kayla was like let's go home. So she drove Darren, Ryan, Russel and me home. Well now I'm going to bed so g'nite!

June 30th - July 12th

Thursday- We drove down to Connecticut to pick up my two cousins (Michael and Steve). Then we went to Six Flags for the day. it was so fun. I went on Superman (even though I said I wouldn't) twice. It was so crazy. We also did this crazy ride called Tomahawk (it's kinda like a pirate ship but it's round so u spin and swing... kinda a round up meets the pirate ship) three times in a row. Not many people were there so we didn't have to wait in long lines. We also went to the water park for a while.

Friday- We went to Six Flags again with Michael and Steve but this time their mom (Pat) and her sister's son (Matt) came. (I know that's kinda confusing but Michael’s mom isn't my aunt... she is my mom's cousin so basically Michael and Steve are my second cousins) Matt has never been on a rollercoaster so we decided he needed to go on one. So we chose Superman. He must have liked it because he came on two other times with us. He also did the wooden roller coasters and Batman but refused Mind Eraser. Which was a good thing because the ride Donald, Micheal, Steve, and I got on broke down. Thankfully we were already done the ride (like we were where u wait until the other train goes) but the one going up the hill got stuck. So we were just waiting there until they finally fixed it. We did Tomahawk 3 more times and Superman 4 times that day. LoL. We left the park early and ate supper at Pat's house. It was fun.

Saturday- We went to my Aunt's cottage on some lake. It was fun. Me and Michael went canoeing and Donald and Steve went out on the paddle boat. Michael tried to flip the boat but was not successful so he decided to SOAK me. LoL. Then we came back for lunch. After that 6 of us went out on my Uncle's boat and swam in the middle of the lake. Then at night Matt set off fire works.

Sunday- Driving day. We were told we were going to the Cape but that made no sense because they kept saying it was an 8 hr drive to the Cape from Connecticut. And I was like umm not thinking so considering the Cape is in MA. We were in some other state (maybe NY) and I was like ok we obviously aren’t going to the Cape. And then my mom told us we were going to Virginia. She also said we had a 4 day bounce pass between Busch Gardens and Water Country.

Monday- We went to Williamsburg... it was kinda boring and VERY hot. I thought I was going to die. LoL. But I mean my dad doesn't like Amusement parks so I mean I could be nice enough to deal with one day for my dad. At night we went to Busch Gardens to see 4th of July fireworks. We went on Lochness in the dark... which was really kool.

Tuesday- We were supposed to go to Water Country but it rained all day so we went to go see Bewitched (which wasn't really even that good :-/ ). Then we went swimming at the hotel. The pool is like an indoor/outdoor pool. Picture an outdoor pool then like a half wall thingy into an indoor pool. It's hard to explain but it was kool. Then we went out to eat at this Japanese restaurant. It was so good. It's basically the same as Yokahama if any of you have been there.

Wednesday- Back to Busch Gardens. Went on all Fearsome Four roller coasters (Apollo's Chariot, Lochness, Alpengist, and Big Bad Wolf) We ate at the smokehouse there. Omg it was soo good. LoL. My brother got a charicature, which came out pretty kool. While he was getting his picture done, me and my mom dipped candles. It was kool/fun.

Thursday- Went to Water Country all day. When we got back to the hotel we were watching TV and found out that the city we were in had a tornado warning. Ya I slept for like 2hrs that night.

Friday- Ok so I got woken up to a fire alarm around 8. All me and my mom could think about was TORNADO!! But it was just something in the kitchen. Like not a fire but like something burnt. After we got back in the hotel we got ready and my dad decided that we were going on a cruise thing to look at naval ships or w/e. And on the boat we felt the wrath of Tropical storm Cindy. LoL. It was kinda choppy and the Captain wasn't even sure if we were going to go out, but he did. It was a "three hour tour" *music*.

Saturday- LOOONGGGGG drive. Stopped for supper at like 9 o’clock at nite at we still had a long way to go. So my mom told my dad we needed to find a hotel and spend the night. My dad finally gave in around 11

Sunday- Drive home. Saw my Kayla!! YAY!! And Alex too!! We went to Canobie to get my schedule and then had a crazy random cook out at Kayla's!! After supper Alex got thrown in the pool and I got pulled in from the steps. The water was like ice cold. LoL. But it was fun.

Monday- Went on a bike ride with Alex then he came over to play XBOX in my air conditioned house. It was definitely way too hot for a bike ride but it was fun. After the video games I had to go to the dentist *sadness*.

Ya so that’s my incredibly long post about my vacation...

Tomorrow I'm leaving for vacation so this will most likely be my last post for the next week and a half. I really hate the way my family packs... the night before we leave for a ten day trip. My mom is yelling and complaining about how she has to do it all herself and then I say what to u need me to do she freaks out. "THAT'S WHAT I CAN'T STAND JUST GO AWAY AND LEAVE ME TO DO IT ALL." So u know me and my big mouth a shoot back with "WELL IF U DON'T WANT HELP TO COMPLAIN" and stormed down here to write about it. Errr...

**Liz we need to hang... I haven't seen u or really talked to u since the last day of school!! :-(

Today was ok. I woke up at 10:30 so it made the day go by fast. Me and my mom went shopping and out for ice cream. Then it was time to show her my report card. Yesterday I took it out of my mail box in front of Theresa (my next door neighbor/second mother) and brought it with me to work. My brother told me this morning that Theresa told my mom... which I figured she would. So I kinda had to tell my mom tonight. The thing is I got an F 4th term in Geometry. I am so disappointed in myself. This year I got my first D (also Geometry) and my first F. I feel like a failure... which I guess I am cuz that's what F stands for. The D's and F brought my GPA from a 3.6 (which I was kinda proud of) to a 3.1 (which I am kinda pissed at myself for). Thankfully I passed all of my finals. But next year I am going to work my butt off. No more not always doing homework and not studying for tests. I need to do kick butt next year but I am not giving up soccer or track for it. I am going to have to find a way to manage sports and academics. Which should be ok cuz I know alot of "smart kids" that do sports. The thing with Geometry is the same thing that happened to me in Spanish last year. The teacher and I didn't get along. And as a result I didn't try very hard. I don't blame the teacher because I'm the one that passed in a quiz blank and I'm the one who got an F. Granted I hated the "teaching style" of this particular teacher. but hey we make mistakes and we learn from them right?

YAWWWWN just got in from work. I had Bonanza... for those of u who don't know it is like a shooting game. But there are no winner sheets (no prizes) so that was cool. I had all quaters which is so annoying and I counted them 5 times. I also read 150 pages in my book. Can u tell how bored I was? I'm lucky to be alive tho. There is this mannequin (yes I looked that word up cuz I can't spell) guy (Peter) sitting at a piano and he randomly goes off and it is sooo loud. It scared the crap outa me every time. LoL. Ya well I'm going to bed now because I am wiped and my back is killing. Those freakin stools are so uncomfortable.
