Watch it. Now. I know I haven't posted in a while but please. I am desperately waiting for this book to come off hold at my library. Watch this book trailer of Lauren Myracle's new book "Bliss."
Enter the world of Bliss, a former resident of a hippie commune who has just entered the "pretty and pampered" real world.
With love,
Angela

Oy Vey.
I have been gone FOREVER.
So many things have happened.
I'm pretty sure I shall just have to skip them and give you a current update on everything, which makes me sad but at least you'll get a little knowledge on what happened.
W-F-Camp Edwards
Gianna calls it:Camp-o Edward-o
What is it?- A School Trip up in East Troy, WI for three days.
More details-One of the best times of my life! They tell you you're going to "make new friends" and we all rolled our eyes and were like we KNOW everybody but I really got to know some people much better, and have some rock solid relationships now.
These three days also changed who I like from Nick Leno, though he'll still be at the back of my mind a little, to Jake. I realized that after spending three whole days with these people, barely any of them got on my nerves. And let me tell you another three days with Jake was sounding pretty good to me. We're all stuck out in the middle of nowhere forest[kinda like Hiawatha] with well water and other stuff, and he STILL appealed to me. I spent some of the most fun experiences of my life in these 3 days with him and it was awesome.
So I guess I have to tell you about Rice-Tacos.
What is it?- A game we played out on hilltop Thursday during Recreation Time.
Origin-So we're racist. Haha. Not in a mean way. But Stace,Carlyn and Praveen are the "Azns"[Asians] aka oatmeal raisin asian. I'm macadamian caucasian. All from the song Cookie Jar-Gym Class Heros FT.The Dream. And so on so forth. We make jokes, pretend to be offended and laugh. We are those kinda people. So Rice-Tacos is this AMAZING keep-away game we played with a volleyball, that we had been using the whole time as a soccer ball. So the game was basically tackle soccer mixed with keep away. Boys versus girls. Most fun I think I've EVER had. So Carr was like" Tackle Soccer= TACOS!" and then Stace wanted rice to be in the name for asian representation. So we named it Rice-Tacos. One of the sad things is, we'll never play it again. Not the same way. not with a volleyball with the SAME group of people on the SAME hilltop.
That's the thing about CE. It was fun, but we'll never hang out with the same groups of people we did when we were there. Our school just isn't that diverse.
Then Saturday and Sunday I went up to Leanna' cottage in Michigan in Dowagiac. That was amazing and I can't even begin to tell you.
There was some drama between a couple of our friends here but there was MUCH texting and calling and things are basically back to normal. We'll see.
And me Jake,Carr,Copple,Niamh and Jess caught 18 fish! Well technically Jake caught 11 and Copple caught 8, but we all contributed.
The "table" was the best. Since we were there for all three meals we couldn't possibly call it the "lunch" table.It was just plain awesome. I don't know what else to say about that. =]
So, here's my schedule for the weekend and why I might not be able to blog.
Friday-School.
Soccer.
Movies to see Housebunny with Carr,Stace,Prav,Mike and them.
Saturday-Game.
IT'S STACEYS BIRTHDAY!
Party @ the Park. =]
Sunday-Cousin Claire's Baby Shower.

Wowsers...Two discoveries.
So I realized today. I have abandoned what small amount of readers I have. EEEEEK. to the 10th power squared. I also realized my life is pretty interesting. So I hereby promise,on Tuesdays probably, to try and do my blog weekly, excluding Mini Blogs for exciting events.
Since my next post will probably be EXTREMELY long. I'll wait a day or two to let all the drama add up and all the suspense build up. Yes? Okay.
-Angela.
Oy Vey!I almost forgot. Who has ever had a Costco Night. For those readers who don't know Costco is the equivalent of a Sam's Club aka A REALLY big store that looks like a warehouse, instead of packages of twos and threes try twenties and forties. EXTREMELY fun. You'll see why next blog. =]

A Week At HYC
Hiawatha Youth Camp.
Where I have been residing for the past week.
Cabin #3.
Crammed with 4 bunk beds with paper thin mattresses that turned out unusually comfy.
Always a slight smell of Febreeze on EVERYTHING!
Going to bed at 2 am EST, waking up at 830 for breakfast.
Doughnut Day.....Hoppy[the cook] makes her fried doughy goodness from scratch resulting in the best donuts you will have ever had. No joke.
About 20 hour days,sometimes more. Activity after activity.
Service in the morning about an hour after breakfast. Service at night,right after Workshop.
This expierience changed me so much. It's a Christian Youth Camp and I say that with much pride. The things we do there aren't what you would think. We learn about God and follow him in all we do but the activities aren't ALWAYS "Christian" We have a Mud Pit. Literally. It's a pit on the Waterfront filled with dirt,water....MUD. There are competitions. Farthest slide. Biggest splash. Mud football. Bumbleball. There's also the Obstacle Course and the Amazing Race. There are about 3 places a person can be at freetime[which is about for 1-3 hours 2 times a day].
1-The Sweet Shop.
2-The Rec Hall
3-The Waterfront/Blob
Descriptions:
1-The Sweet Shop-Connected to the Nurses Cabin. The Sweet Shop is a medium sized building with booths and tables and a little counter where you can buy things such as pop, candy, personal pizzas that the fantabulous B-Lo has been preparing. There is also a couple shelves in the corner with games.
2-The Rec Hall- The long building next to the Sweet Shop. Pretty much the main place to be at freetime. There are PingPong tables,Fooseball tables, Bumper Pool,Pool,Shooting Games[Basketball] and couches and chairs.
3-The Wtaerfront/Blob-Obviously, since my sister Linda was the Waterfront director [aka. WaterSafetyInstructor...aka Lifeguard] I have to add this on here. Ever seen that movie Heavy weights? The one about the kid who gets sent to this "fat camp" where they are supposed to lose weight but end up with this pyscho(Ben Stiller) who turns the camp crazy.....You know the Blob in that movie? Well, we have one at camp. A multicolored plastic blowup that you jump onto from a ladder platform in the middle of the water. Then you climb to the end and a counselor jumps on the other end and "blobs" you up about 20 feet into the air, arms flailing until you hit water with a huge splash.....amazing really. =]

Terry Prisk, was the speaker this certain week and amazing.His sense of humor is like no other. He really touches you and his approach is terrific. He also had a knack for making you remember things. He split his sermons up into Witnessing and Hurt among others. While most preachers speak ON passages. Terry spoke out of it. He would take one passage, then tell stories and make points about it. It was like nothing I had ever listened to before.
Oh and guess what? During one of these workshops I talked about before. I learned how to correctly sign the alphabet and sign a song called "Give Me Jesus."

Centennial Pool Part:1
So, yesterday I made cupcakes. I failed. They were really muffins. The thing is, I was chowing down on the frosting container while waiting for the cupcakes. Some advice;don't take out the frosting until actually needed. Because believe me, even if you're not a frosting person, you'll eat it.
Scene:Kitchen
Smells:Cooking Cupcakes
Food in Sight: Batter on the floor and Frosting.
Status:Hungry
Effect:No more frosting.
Today, I didn't do anything half as foolish. Today, I did something sensible. I went to the pool with the girls. Well, most of them. Adrianna is in Europe, so obviously she couldn't go but Gianna, Leanna,Kayla and Stacey all came along with Kristine, Stacey's older sister.
That's right. Robert needs a paragraph of his own. He is, and I'm saying this in all truthfulness, one of THE creepiest people I have ever met, and we are even counting this strange guy Gianna bumped into while pretending to be dead for the hot lifeguard today. Robert,Matt and Luke were at the pool. Now I don't mind Luke, he's ok. Matt,well he's not gay but he is really strange in his way of being more "in touch" with his feminine side. Robert is downright scary. So the whole time Luke is being all nice and not scary while Robert and Matt keep stalking us around the pool. And I think he was checking me out. But I can't like him. I can't even kinda like him. Cause he's Katie's. Katie wasn't at the pool but I know that from her profile even over the summer where she's not seeing him every day at school she loves him still.
