Love.
It came easily,
Left abruptly,
Whirlwind of jitters,
Whipping in and out,
Only to leave the thought,
"Am I good enough?"
"Soon"
You tell yourself,
As in the day you say "I do"
Walking down that isle,
All your unsettle thoughts scurrying,
Leaving that one man,
With the words of,
"I love you!"
This past weekend has been a crazy one! Ashleigh came over on Friday and we stayed up till 4 a.m hanging out with Dexter, Jackson, and Mark! It was so fun! Saturday we woke up early and all of us went out to breakfast! Me and Ashleigh came home and got ready to go to a Graduation that my dad spoke at (yes, I decided to go and support him!). He actually did really well! Today has not been a good day. Lets just say I think teenage love is a waste! I let myself fall in this position where I am liking a guy and I only set myself up for a let down. Boys are stupid but so awesome. I know I am contradicting myself... But its just hard. I love them and hate them all in one. I wish boys got girls feelings, I wished they cared more, I wish they realized how we get hurt easily! I guess thats just a huge difference between boys and girls! :(
Well I am off to do more studying... I have a HUGE exam tomorrow! I am so NOT ready! haha. Ok goodnight!
Here comes just another Monday!

Hey yall! Wow its been like 2 -3 weeks since I have been on! Insane! Let me tell you about what's going on in my life right:
Well about 2 weeks ago Chelsea, my dog, got hit by a car (yes, this will be her SECOND time people!!). I was telling my grandma about this and she quickly responded, " wow! Its like a cat with 10 life's." I don't know if she got the part about it being my dog or if she got the fact that Chelsea has never died?! I guess thats just how G-ma's roll.
Last weekend was amazing! Amazing - definition: surprised, greatly filled with astonishment. Well I can tell you thats just how I felt when I heard my Nonnie was coming in town! Nonnie - definition: My mom's mom :)
You see Nonnie NEVER comes to visit us. And if she does, its a 2 hour layover. I mean We were surprised! We had a fun packed weekend with going to Greenville to visit my aunt and uncle, to shopping all day on Saturday, to eating at the Cheesecake Factory! This was one weekend I will not forget!
This past week on the other hand... lets just say I want to forget Monday. Boy, was it a STRESSFUL day! We had to memorize a monologue from Shakespeare and recite it to our class. I had the hardest time memorizing it. I mean unless thy, hast, woo, and thou come back in our everyday conversations.. I do think this assignment was pointless. But I am not the teacher so I can't make that decision. By the way, I got a 91 on reciting it. :)
I am looking forward to this weekend with Ashleigh Whalen coming over, and Jackson's prom! Oh, and my dad is doing a graduation. He asked me to come when I said, " Dad, honestly I wouldn't be much of support. I think I would have to hold back laughing with you having no clue what your doing." Yup, this sentence didn't help. Thanks to my dad who commits to everything... I will be attending a graduation this Saturday... yay! (did you catch the sarcasm?)
With all this said... Good Thursday everyone!!

Hey! Good Morning!
This week has been a pretty good week... The only thing that wasn't good was waking up Monday morning! I was on spring break last week so when Monday rolled around I just couldn't get myself out of bed. I pressed snoozed at least 3 times! It's weird because Sunday night and Monday night I tried to go to bed on a decent time so I could wake up. Those mornings it was very hard! Then last night I went to bed very late and this morning it was easy to wake up. So yea I don't know why that is. But I am not complaining because I love to stay up all hours of the night! I wouldn't have to worry about all of this if I was on spring break... :(
Today I'm off for yet another day scurrying through the halls of high school, worrying about homework, and trying to keep the drama away! Whew.. This will not be an easy day.
Hope

Guess what my day consisted of?! Ok here is the play by play:
1. Alarm went off (you know how in those cartoons when the alarm is jumping side to side when ringing.. yep thats how mine was!!)
2. Check my facebook. (this is a must!)
3. Pull my body out of bed and get ready!!
4. Wash Ashley's sheets (this is because i have been sleeping with her).
5. Leave!... and guess where we go?! To be on the Oprah show! No I'm not making this up! We drive 30 min away... and no i don't live in Chicago we did it over satellite! When we got there they made sure everyone was looking good and put us on with Oprah. It was very nerve-wracking but we overcame it! I stood beside my mom for nearly 2 hours without sitting down. I swear if It went any longer i would have died. Wow. I can imagine it now.. Hope TerKeurst died while being on Oprah! haha. What a death.
Some of you may be wondering why we went on the Oprah show when we disagree with her religion. Well in the Bible it does not say sit at home and talk only among Christians. No it says go out and teach others about Christ. So today was a teaching experience we had with Oprah. She may not go home and become a Christian right away. But i truly believe God made this happen for a great reason! We may never know what that reason is, but i know there is one
6. Finally we came home and packing to leave again and go to Florida! We are going to my Grandparents house! How fun! .I cant wait!

Happy April Fools day!
Today was full of pranks and laughter! First the girls put tampons and pads ALL over the guys bathroom. So to get the girls back, the boys saran rapped our toilet and rubbed grease all over the toilet seat! And someone actually peed!! How embarrassing! After school I had my best friend come over and we played the wii! So much funn! We then fueled up our bodies by eating some Chick-fil-a! Always a favorite! Today was defiantly a high on the chart of "good days"! To top it all off... NO HOMEWORK this week! WOHOO!! This week is show week at my school. Everyone in the play is stressed out to the max. So because of that they enforced no homework this week! Which is always a great break to have! :)
With all that said I need to finish up some laundry and clean my tornado like room! ugg!

Hey yall!
Since tons of people read my blog :) I just want to say, "I AM SOO SORRY!" I have like neglected my poor blog. But I know I'm forgiven.
Ok great now since thats over I would love to move on. Lets talk about what's going on right now in the TerKeurst home...
Well right now I'm sitting in Ashley's bed watching champ (my dog) tear up the bed. I mean does a dog have to dig a hole in the bed to find the "right spot" to sleep. I mean since when do dogs sleep inside in a humans bed?! I have to admit he does keep me warm and cuddles with me when i have no one to turn to. But I always have to remind myself he is just a dog!
Then we have my family downstairs watching american idol. I would be down there but I do get bored of that show. My brothers are off, of course! I mean Jackson is graduating and he is always gone! It makes me so mad because I'm going to be gone almost all summer. Oh yea, guess what?! Instead of moving to Ethiopia (if you didn't know.. Ethiopia is in Africa) we are going for like 6 weeks!! I am so beyond excited! Before Ethiopia we might be going on a safari in Kenya! How cool! I mean what's cooler then that people?!
Johanna (my friend who i am going with to africa) is getting a blog :) and she doesn't even know it. I can't wait. I have like nobody on my blog roll :(. So I can add here! yay!
Ok well i am going to head out. My friend Jo needs my URL! How awesome?! I have my OWN URL!! Wow!
Word.
Hope
