WOW!! It has been a long while since I've been on here!! I'm so busy lately!! School is driving me crazy!! It's a good thing it's almost over!! Finally!! But summer is gonna be so busy! Basketball and Volleyball are very time consuming sports. Especially this year. It seems like we are gone all the time. But hey, if that is what it takes to get a STATE TITLE.... then so be it! haha*

Well, life has its ups and downs just as it always has. Mom is always at school and work.... dad is always rude if he's in the house, and if he isn't he is out on the farm. Katie.... o gosh she's a brat, but that is nothing new! I'm doing ok I think. The past few days have been my sports break I think. I needed it tho!! That's all I have for now! Who knows when I'll update next!!

I'm out!! mL*

S T A T E     C H A M P S!!!

need i say more?? 

^^^ Us after our Championship Game ^^^

^^^Our pep-rally at our school once we returned as STATE CHAMPS!!!**

**A Huge thank you goes out from our team to all the fans and parents and all of their support..!! It's so hard to explain the feelings and the emotion that I think our entire team is feeling. It's so incredible! All the hard practices, long nights at Daugherty Court, open gyms, and busy summer weeks finally paid off. To the team**Girls-we made it!! We accomplished our #1 goal!! We were in it to win it and we did! It was a great season full of ups and downs and we got through a big loss beginning and mid season, but we stuck together and fought through it!! Our "Circle of Trust" is never ending and neither are the memories we've made this season!! I love you all and thanks so much!!**

*RIVER VIEW LADY BEARS - UNCATCHABLE!!*

Ok!! So Monday was my 17th birthday! Yippy for me!! I got $5 and like 4 cards!! O our basketball team beat Circleville in the Regional Semi-final game Tuesday, so that was freakin awesome!! We play DeSales Friday..... Zanesville High School @ 6:30!! Total Sellout.... I Hope!! Anyways!! Basketball is goin great, obviously, but school and family on the other hand SUCKS!!! Chemistry is kickin my ass right now! Go figure!! Thats about the only thing I'm actually having problems in. Life at home...... where do I even begin!!

Things here are way to complicated for me to even start to explain!! If you don't know the history of it you wont understand. Basically my dad is an ass and even though he's dying, he doesn't seem to want to change his ways of doing things. He kicked my brohter out of the house tonight and fired him from his job. Then, my dad, being the nice guy that he is, called my brothers case worker and told her he had no job, so now another warrent for his arrest will be issued because he can't pay child-support. NOT GOOD!! O did I mention my brother has nowhere to live!! Yeah, no one in my family even knows where he is rite now. I feel awful!! My dad, he's treatin everyone like crap lately, not just my brother. It's really hard to focus on everything that's important right now because of all the stuff happening on the side!

To all my important people:

*TJ* !! WOW!! I'm so happy to have him!! I donno where I'd be w/o him that's for certain!! I'm glad he's so understanding, trustworthy, and loyal!! I thank him so much for being there for me when I need him!! I know he knows what has been going on at home and I'm so greatful to have him!! Everything I have in this world and all that I'll every be, it would all fall down around me, just as long as I have you right here by me!!*

*Kasey-So glad we are talking again!! It's so nice for things to be getting back to the way they should be!! It's crazy how time is so important in friendships ya know>?! LoL* Love ya!!

*Katie- Well, where do I start?! I love ya babe and you know I'm here for you just like you're always here for me!! Thanks for puttin up with all my shit!! You truely mean the world to me!* Thanks dear!

*Bob- Thanks tons for bein there for me lately!! It's nice to know some1 like you with problems of their own has time for a good friend!! Thanks for bein there!

I'm very happy to have these four in my life! Times are rough on every1 and it's good to have people you can count on!

Basketball*It sux! But it's awesome! We are in tournaments!! Finally!! We played and beat Morgan and John Glenn and we have New Phila on Tuesday.....at Zanesville!! Its gonna be an awesome game!! Other then that i have not a thing to say.....

the only people you need in your life;
are the ones who need you in theirs . .

Life** Yeah, it's true, it's a bitch. But it's also true that you gotta live ever hour to the fullest and enjoy every second of every day or your gonna find yourself lookin back and regreting the way you've lived. Life isn't always what you might think it is goin to be, but then again nothing ever is!~ It's amazing how things and people can change with time. Sometimes, people that you think you wouldn't be able to live without can help you more then you know when you learn to let them go. Don't get me wrong, letting go of someone you care so much about isn't easy by any means, but you have to realize that you just have to make the best of what you have. Give other people a chance and you might find the people that you least expect are the people that you need most in your life!! I love the ones I hold close to me and the ones I can't help anymore I can't forget!

School** It isn't so great!! I really need to work harder with stuff so I can get through a little easier!! I barely have time to hang out with anyone! The time I do have I'm so tired I just lay down en sleep. I feel like I'm missing out on my life.....I always use to have time to hang out en now I have no time and no friends! I screwed myself I guess!

Basketball** It's going good! We finished the seasonwith a victory on senior night against Zanesville (a very good team) and then an away game at New Phila closed our season with one loss. (first game of the season) We are really playing well!! I hope it continues to go this well throughout tournaments!! Wednesday @ Zanesville High School @ 6:00!! Talk at all ya Later!!*
