Good Gravy Train!

PHILIPPIANS 4:13! I've decided that's now my favorite verse, it makes me feel happy and strong whenever I read it.

Uhmm...I don't really have any reasons for why I haven't typed anything lately. Don't hurt me! But i'm back now! HOORAAYYY! Hehehe! I hadn't posted in a long time, but i'd been browsing my buddies' blogs and decided to check mine, and found a comment by Lauren saying she was sad I hadn't updated. No me gusta making people sad! So let me update everyone on what all the hubbub's been since my last post:

Basketball season is now over, sadly. Last year I happily awaited the close to all the sports I was in..But it wasn't like that this year for basketball. I really miss it, hahaha. (Oh! By the way, we didn't win any of our games during the season, but we won our very last one! With the help of the seventh graders, hehe) Track started last week, which benefits me sports wise and church wise. Because of dear LTC, I am unable to attend Trek training on Sunday nights, but with handy-dandy track, i'm all set! Whoot! Sports wise, it just gives me something to do, haha. You wouldn't believe how bored I get at home with all that free time. It's a wonder how I survive the summer sometimes, hehe! Hmm...I started "hard" on Guitar Hero 3, where to my dislike, I am finding unnaturally hard and crampish. I have to take breaks inbetween songs so my hands don't hurt too bad, haha.

Oh! I almost completely forgot, (I fear for my life because of the following phrase) I went to disney world the week before last. It was about 394023948235 tons of fun!
----------------------------------------
EVERYTHING ABOVE THAT LINE IS FROM TWO WEEKS AGO, hehehe. I had to restart my computer, and never finished it, but it was such a fun-filled post that I had no heart to waste it. SO IT'S BEING RECYCLED AND USEFUL AT THE SAME TIME! HOORAY! We're back in Florida now for spring break, but we're not in Disney World. We got here yesterday, and here I am at midnight hanging around on my dad's laptop thinking of reasons not to go to bed yet. Oh, the life of spring break. I guess it would have been the same at home, only with not as nice a landscape and an ocean to stare out or people to watch (and occasionally make fun of) from our balcony. I wouldn't mind owning a little condo like this when i'm living on my own..it's a nice size and convenient. DID YOU KNOW PEOPLE ACTUALLY LIVE IN CONDOS?! My mom told me that yesterday, and I am SHOCKED. WHOKNEW?! Life's a mystery, eh? OKAYOKAY, my head hurts...I guess i'll go to bed.

Ohyeah, ITSNOWEDDDDDD! I'm sure everyone already knows that. BUT THAT'S OKAY! Because I went outside WHILE it was snowing for the first time ever. Awesomesauce, I say. Yesyes, i've played in the snow before, but never while it was happening. And we even got out of school 10 minutes early! Oh course there were the new people from different states like Washington or Kansas that didn't care, they see snow all the time, what's the big deal, eh? Pfft, whatever, non-natives! AWAY, I SAY! Snow is for cool people! And so that night my sister and I built a snowman. And that was the first snowman I had ever built. Ever. (eeh..you have to understand, usually when it snows, I stay inside by the fire. I was feeling inspired that day, hehehe) Alright, bedtime! (But I must comment on the stangeness of it being exactly 12:12 and I still hear people down at the beach yelling every once in a while, hahahha) Goodnight, fellow snow friends! ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER DOLLAR! WHOOT!

SURPRISE!

GUESS WHO'S BIRTHDAY IS TOMORROOOWWWW! Miiinnnee! (And elvis presley's..but he's dead, so he doesn't count, haha)

Uhhmm..We have a basketball game tonight, the day before school starts? I didn't really have anything to say other than when my birthday was, haha. OH! But I did get a memory card for my camera as an early present, hehe! a;slkdf I'm going to die tonight..so much unhealth over the break..and..non basketball practice. Uugghh..I don't want to go. BUT ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, i'm making my mom, or whoever's going, take pictures of us during the game so I can see what we look like. This probably isn't the best game to be doing that..there'll be so many foouuullsss..Hokay, well..I'm going to stop complaining and find something to do, haha. And today, I give to you this parting gift. A perfect depiction of our games. Guess which ones are us? Haha (Hint: We're the normal ones. Click on picture for better view.)

Hmm..

Just thought i'd share this with you. C:

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

This version of the blog is going to have festive winter colors!HOORAY! tHOUGH, i JUST REALIZED THAT i WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE WHAT i' MTYPING UNLESS I HIGHLIGHT IT..bUT IF IT'S FUNNY i GUESS I'LL KEEP IT FOR ENTERTAINMENT. nOW BACK TO THE BLOGGING SUBJECT.

I just noticed that I put everything in caps. Hm. Oh well, hehe. NEW YEARS WAS A BANG! We spent the end of the year at Chef Preston's house, in which Hakeber and I drowned ourselves in a chocolate fountain and Harry Potter. And Eclipse. JAAACCOOOOOBBB! For a slightly large portion of the night, we found her camera of some use. One of us would sit on the floor beside her bed with the camera ready to take a picture, while the other ran at the bed and jumped on it. Meanwhile, the cameraperson would try to take a picture of the person right as they were about to land. OH THE PICTURES THAT WERE PRODUCED. I hope she posts some, I do.

ALSO! I was the first person to use the bathroom in their house this year. AND I HAVE A GINORMOUS BRUISE TO SHOW IT! OHYEAHOHYEAH, ANDANDAND, MY BIRTHDAY IS NEXT WEEEEK!

I asked my mom today if she could take me somewhere tomorrow so I can buy Guitar Hero III. Hehehe! It's so much fun! But of course, in order for me to leave the house, I'd have to shower, brush my hair/teeth and not stay up very late tonight. (Those are all my guidelines..only the sleeping one doesn't always apply. Just on occasion.) My mom likes to leave the house for shopping things early. (ie, not usually after 1) Now that I think about it, that probably means I'd have to shower today, because there's no probably way that i'll get up before 10:30 tomorrow, and if I do, i'll very happily post a blog tomorrow telling so. And just so it's not completely pointless, i'll put something in it..Like a video or picture or something. Or a game. Thing. I DUNNO. Haha.

Welll, I guess i'm done for now. I hope everyone had a good year and stuff. Sorry I didn't write about my New Year's resolutions and stuff, like most everyone probably is. (Truth is, I didn't make any, haha) Buuut..OHWELL! Happy 2008!

THE INSANITY OF IT ALL!

I just can't contain myself any longer! This is just..MADNESS, I SAY! Oh, the sheer luck of me coming across this in the hour of my self-proclaimed bedtime! Let me stop the talk..LET US WATCH!




(I'm also thrilled that I unlocked the key to all youtube videos! AHAHAHA! It really was very simple, I don't know how I could have overlooked it before hand.) Those were some robots that Sony built..I am overjoyed that they used their advanced knowledge on robots to make them do something completely idiot such as dancing. If they had made them talk, I would have been disgusted.

And so, I'm offering this simple phrase..

MERRY CHRISTMAAAAS!

Welcome to Taylor's Christmas edition of The Taylor Page! hahahaha..Well, leave it to me to get on the computer and blog about nothing on christmas day! But this is somewhat relative, though, hehee. I got an awesome digital camera this morning! AND IT'S BLUUUEEE! Right now it only holds around 15 pictures..My mom said I should put "memory card" on my birthday list and maybe i'll get one, hehe. I only have to figure out what memory card I need, and i'm all good. So, to celebrate this cherished event, I did what all cameras long to do: Take a picture! And this isn't just ANY picture! Ohno, it's the very SECOND picture taken on this camera! (Unfortunately, the only thing I caught was this strange creature) I figured I might blind the viewers by showing the first picture. (Yep! You guessed it! The first picture was of me! haha)

I want YOU to tell ME what's going on here. I think she was attacking me, because everything that happened after she lunged at my throat (as seen here) was a Christmas blur, and then, hours later, I woke up in a potato sack out in the backyard with 6 huge bumps on my head that were oddly shaped like that computer mouse she's holding. Who knew. But! After I escaped the evil clutches of the potato sack, I went exploring and found many wonderous things! So I took pictures of those too!

Here we find a strange device that dangled from a metal pole. Most likely used for sacrifices many a year ago.

The trees kept talking to me. I swear!

The is the boundary line for this strange country. Is also used as a bridge for many of the natives..They're quite frisky little things, with their small bushy tails and yummy acorns!

But alas! When I returned home, no one came and welcomed me back from my long and perilous journey! All I really wanted was a hug..

And thus concludes today! Back to the regular Christmas mumbo jumbo, I also got a lot more awesome things (one of which is a rubix cube!). Hehe! And my cousins are coming tomorrow! Tonight my aunt is coming over and we're going to have a traditional christmas dinner, full of HAM and SWEET POTATOES! My aunt makes the best sweet potatoes EVA! WHOOT! Okay, well, I best be off now to spend my new itunes cards! Farewell, and GOOD TIDINGS TO THEE!

Ha! How many times a year do you actually get to say stuff like that?

10 FACTS!

Hmm..Okay, thought of doing this in my spare time due to lack of any well being and boredom. I'm going to post some 10 random facts about myself that you might not know, just for the fun of it, hehehe! (Yes, yes, I know, it's all been done before..But, whatever, these things are fun to do, hehe) Also, before I begin!: BOREDOM BUSTER OF THE DAY - www.freerice.com

It's for a good cause, and you save yourself from boredom! Test your knowledge, I say!

1. My birthday's on the same day as Elvis's. (January 8, for those of you who don't know, haha)
2. I hate it when my feet get wet and then grass sticks to it..a;sldkf Ick, drives me nuts!
3. I can play the flute and the piano..And kind of want to learn how to play the guitar, hehe.
4. In fifth grade I had surgery in my mouth.
5. When I grow up, if I don't live here, I'm probably going to live in Virginia.
6. I prefer the hot over the cold
7. I like to make up a lot of stories in my head based off of stuff that happen to me in real life..Usually they're stupid, and hardly ever go anywhere besides my head..But I do a lot of story writing with my friends. (aka, roleplaying..though without the dumb costumes and crazy WoW like games or whatever, hehe) I would explain how that works, but..Then this post would become ridiculously long like most of my others, hehehe.
8. ALRIGHT. I ADMIT IT. I'M A HOPELESS ROMANTIC SOMETIMES XD I love love stories! *cough*PhantomoftheOperaPrideandPrejudiceTwilight*cough*
9. I've never broken any bones before.
10. I've lived in the same house all my life..Though I wish my parents had bought a two story house or the house across the street or something, because it's really cool, hehe. My house seems too flat. (And there's hardly any kids my age in the neighborhood D:)

OKAYOKAY, I HAVE EXCITING NEWS, CHILDREN! THEY CHOSE WHO'S PLAYING EDWARD IN THE TWILIGHT MOOVVVIIIEEE!!! His name is Robert Pattinson..He's not amazingly handsome like they describe in the books (because that's how vampires are), but i'm willing to hold out. He's the guy that played Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter movies, so at least I know he's a good actor. Hehehehe! It makes me so excittteeeddd! Okayokay..I need to..go..do something! Farewell!
