Eahhhh life :)

I cannot wait for softball to start. Like ... It's unexplainable. Oklahoma had an extremely good day today..:) Boys Basketball beat No. 5 Kansas and the softball girls started off the season in Phoenix 4-0. 3 of those 4 only took 5 innings because we run ruled them. Keilani Ricketts had 2 no hitters. Man, they are beasts. Hahaha leave in 6 weeks for Oklahoma!! My brother is going to an OU drum camp because he is trying out for the Pride of Oklahoma. :) So proud of him! Looking into buying a new mitt for catching down there at Academy (much cheaper than scheels) and we are also going to the Oklahoma vs. Louisville double header on that Saturday. :) so excited. This week, we have 2 early outs for conferences and no school Friday. Mama lis, is taking some of my friends and I to Safe Haven on Valentines Day because we don't have school Friday. So I have a feeling this week is going to be pretty easy. Haha High School registration in 2 weeks -____- i am now obsessed with batman and Wanelo. (new app, you should try it!!) shall I share some pictures of what I have been doing? Roll.

Update on...Life?

Hey girl, Hey... hahahaha

I've had so much going on the last month, I totally forgot to keep blogging! WOW! I have had lots of fun managing the boys basketball team at BVMS and we still have a few games left! I'm just chillin in my room now. This morning, I put the first run of 2013 in the books. Nothing real good came out of it...haha. It was 20 degrees at the start and it wasn't too bad. The route was suppose to be so the wind was at our backs...it was the opposite. My legs were also the color of a watermelon when we were done. I got 13th out of 14 in my age divison...yeah not my best race! haha I'm ok with it though, because I set a goal of 40ish minutes and I finished in 40:27. Goal made! This race was also a 4 mile not just a 5k (3.1 miles). So, farther than ever before. :) Our friend also got 2nd place overall and third place in his age! He is a very good runner...obviously. I am going to the Skyforce Military night tonight, and am looking foward to a day off tomorrow. (Well not really, I have softball practice.) But, I am having some friends over for the super bowl. Right now, I am going to take a nice hot shower and do some homework!

HAPPY WEEKEND FRIENDS!

This is also adding onto the mile clubs (i.e. 100 mile club, 200 mile club) I am a member of the GREEN group making me 393.50 miles away from the BLUE group! (That's a lot of miles...but with Half training this summer, I'm confident and BLUE shouldn't be a problem.) I am also 73.50 miles away from the 300 mile club. :) Current Milage: 226.50

Happy New Year!!

I know, I'm a little late with the whole "Happy New Year" thing. I have had a insane sleeping schedule since New Year's Eve. haha! Up until 6am January 1st, 3am the second and 3 last night as well...I have a feeling it's going to be a great year! I don't really make resolutions but I do have a goal for this year: Run a half marathon. Stretching it a tad, but who cares! I will post my 2013 race calender next! :)

Happy 2013!

Is it wrong to be happy?

Is it wrong to be happy? I've been telling myself this a lot lately, and quite frankly, I hope the answer is no. Why do I find this so great yet so... unrealistic? Yes, I have my good days and bad days. But the last few months, all good, for the most part. (Okay every time I walk into Mrs. Schilf's classroom I want to puke, but what's 45 minutes?) I have some of the most amazing friends, family, and so much to be thankful for. I recently had a Christmas party with some of my best friends and I realized then that I had, had a drama-free semester of school. (For the most part.) I absolutely hate drama. I don't feel that I'm putting friends who create drama "in the garbage", I just think that I've been less "drama-prone". I don't believe in having one best friend. I think it makes all your other friends feel kind of left out. I have lots of girl best friends and one really great guy best friend. It's an amazing deal, and I've been blessed from the big guy! I was recently put on a new softball team, and don't get me wrong, I'm going to miss my old team so much! I was just ready to advance. Being a catcher, I don't really want to "compete" for my playing time. My family is doing well. My brother will leave in about 4 days to go to Florida with the Marching Lynx. He was also excepted to the University of Oklahoma on 12/12/12. :) Day in history. My sister and her family were here for the weekend. Her husband and two kids, Lane and Kyia. We had so  much fun! Lane got a new Nerf gun from Uncle Spencer for Christmas and we had a few violent Nerf wars. (Is that even possible?) I think Kyia likes me just a little bit. ;) I have also been running as usual. Wednesday I became a member of the 200 mile club. With my mom asking me that morning, "Didn't I just buy you your 100 mile sweatshirt?". The miles add up pretty quickly. With Christmas break already, here and one semester of middle school left, brought semester tests. I still don't know my semester one Algebra grade. :( I'm hoping I did good enough to stay in the class. haha. Christmas Eve is just 24 hours away and I'm gonna be honest, I'm not so much into the whole "present thing" this year. Of course I like gifts and all, who doesn't, I think I've just realized the true meaning of Christmas. If you must know what I want for Christmas, here it goes. Garmin watch, OU yoga pants, a new bible, and a punch card to legends. An Under Armour sweatshirt would be nice too. :P (My sister also got me a Scheel's gift card! Who doesn't love Scheel's? I found myself receiving a lot of gift cards, from relatives  this year as I have no idea what sizes I am anymore. I consider that a good thing. :) I also would like to start a journal with my personal thoughts in it. Like a keepsake of 2013 kind of. I have a feeling it's going to be a great year! My brother and dad and I also had to do some shopping for Mama Bear today. Procrastination at its finest. That's the Smith way!

Agenda for tomorrow consists of:
Getting new glasses :)
Giving puppies a much needed bath
Baking Jesus a birthday cake
Eating :)
Church
Opening presents

First weekday of Christmas break! :)
As you may see I am very scatter brained, but once again, I am happy. I just cannot wait until I can see my friends again! :)

Enjoy your holiday!!
P.S. I am in the process of trying to add videos to my blogs. We'll see how that turns out. If it does, however, maybe I can show you what I received for Christmas. :)
