The Project Right Now

    Right now I am kind of in a stage where I'm ALWAYS bored. Right now while I'm bored I crochet. I'm crocheting a blanket for my room. The main color is kind of a misty blue. And the less used color is a color named The Gray Beard. I love both of these colors so I hope the blanket turns out alright.

  
       One of my friends in Malawi, named Jessica, used to be my crocheting buddy. I still wish we could crochet, but the time I had doing it with her was well spent.  I still hope I will be able to crochet all the time, and never ditch this hobby. It's been fun!

Tupelo

          This morning I woke up at 6:40 this morning to go running to practice for the cross-country team at my high-school with my friend Claire. We ran at least 1 1/2 mi. straight without stopping. I felt accomplished. Then after our run I went to her house and then we went to Tupelo, MS. We were going there to buy room items for her room because she was re-decorating.

         We went to a T.J.-Max and we were looking for a small lounge chair and a off-white bed spread. We had no luck with anything there. Then we went to a Bed Bath and Beyond and were looking for the bed spread. Still there was no luck there.

          Next we went to a Ross store. We were just looking around, not looking for anything in particular. We tried on all of the highest heels and put on a lot of hats and took pictures. It was fun. It reminds me of a time when I went to a store with my friends in Malawi and we tried on hats and took a ton of pictures! That was one of my favorite days in Malawi and I will never forget it.

          After Claire and I went to Ross we went to the mall and walked around and looked into clothes stores and talked about both of our own personal styles. It was very fun. After we were done with clothes we went to Bath and Body Works and smelt a lot of the scents. Then we got a pretzel and came back to Corinth. I enjoyed my day in Tupelo with Claire. I hope I can have more like them.

What's Next?

                Who knows what will happen next? Pretty soon my family and I are going to move up North to Corinth, MS.  I’m pretty excited about it. The move from Malawi to the States was ok I guess. I’m really going to miss Malawi though… especially my friends. I just hope that I will be able to meet someone similar to them. I was blessed to have people like that in my life though.

            I’m different…

                 I’m spastic, sometimes psycho. I love to read. I like to also read comic books (especially Batman), I enjoy singing to myself now and then. I like art… even though I’m not fantastic at it. I like to dress up and be in character. I like to write. I’m a very weird weirdo! I like to take pictures of flowers and stuff outside. I love spending a lot of times in the woods. I pretend I’m in some book I really enjoyed. Sometimes it is so real to me I believe it. I’m a freak about animals, nature, and science. I LOVE to smile. J

             I don’t know… I’m not different, I’m ME! And I’m proud to be!

            I have this one friend in Malawi named Sarah Young. She and I are basically exactly alike! We are spastic, weirdos, sometimes psycho, and occasionally we can tell what the other one is thinking. Even when we’re fourteen years old we love to play little kid games that we made up when we were nine. We love to have tea parties and dress up. One time (with Elizabeth Trumble) we had a tea party and dressed up. Sarah was the Mad Hatter, Liz was the green version of the Cheshire Cat and I was the Joker.  Sarah’s older brother chased us around. He dressed up as a mutant. Everybody said I looked pretty creepy. See what I mean? I get into character. Well anyways, here’s a picture…

         With  Liz, we would usually get obsessed with the same things. We would talk about them for hours! I could never do that with anybody else. I hope someday I will be able to meet some people like them. I really do miss them. I miss every one else too.  I will see them again someday!

MISS YOU GUYS!

Malawian Life
