i think today, i'm going to blog about my summer.
unfortunately, i didn't go to california.
:GASP: i just had an idea!
what if i aspired to title all of my blogs with song lyrics that are relevant to the topic of the blog!
today, my lyrics are from "holiday from real" by jack's mannequin. they make my heart beat. <3
so...summer. what an eventful summer it was!
the very first thing i did when school got out was get on a plane and go to mexico. no, not for a vacation or anything like that, i went on a service trip to mexico. it was so much fun! i was in juarez, mexico for a week, and it was one of the best weeks. ever. i miss it so much! it was such an unbelievably eye-opening experience.
so that's enough about mexico for now.
the next big event that happened over the summer...probably my birthday. :]
i had a rather large shindig this year; i think there were 35 or so people there (i'm guessing some of the seniors in this class will have to disagree when i say that 35 is a big number, but for someone just finishing middle school, that's monumentally large). lots of stuff happened at my party. there were...three hookups, two brand new people, and one broken collarbone.
i'm going to make a guess and say that you're most intrigued by the broken collarbone.
here's the deal:
some of my eden prairie friends have a made up game called ball. there are no rules, except for the one rule that you get the ball to hit a designated object on your side.
an epic game of ball broke out involving 20 or so people, guys and girls.
you'd think that guy would take it easy on the girls considering, well, we are girls (not to be sexist, but the guys get WAY more into sports like this than we do).
my friend zack accidentally grabbed kelsey's ankle as she was running, and she fell to the ground in an instant. at first, we all thought kelsey was just in shock because everyone thought she'd be sobbing if her collarbone was legitimately broken. kelsey was super strong and didn't even cry! it turns out that her collarbone did break which is super sad, because she was out of volleyball for four weeks. thankfully, kelsey is coming back to the team soon!
so that's my epic summer.
ze end.

I LOL'D.
Isn't your collar bone near your neck? Did she fall like, directly down on her chest which caused her collar bone to break?
That sounds soooo extremely painful, I can't believe the girl didn't cry! Hahaha.
By the way, THIRTY FIVE IS INDEED A BIG NUMBER! :D
You -do- throw fantastic parties after all, Kayla darling. Especially fantastic considering there's no drinking and you're one of the few moms my mother trusts to have a party.
Oh, I never heard much about the mission trip from you. Did you know enough Spanish to communicate with little kids, if you saw them there? Or did you guys focus mostly on building houses and such?
