Havent posted much lately. Still caught up in the concert. Lets see... last Friday after the zoo me and Meredith went to the beach with Eric, Alan, and Cory. As odd as those guys are, it was pretty fun. Didnt do too much until the concert. Went to an awesome pimped out party at the zoo with Mere on Wednesday!!... haha yeah right. Me and Jimmy watched The Backstreet Boys: All Access going to Dayton. I didnt realize how young they look in the We've Got It Going On video. Oh and I put a link to the video page on my blog, just incase you want to figure out what I'm talking about. Yesterday I watched some more Backstreet Boys videos.

^^^The Shape of My Heart video was quite... interesting. Does this sound right?... they're on a stage that out of context looks like a bathroom, under the table they are sitting at is Brian's wife "acting" with this guy that looks like Ricky Martin, they are just ignoring it, all while Nick is sticking his head under the table and laughing... of course its Nicky that does that. I l-o-v-e SPHYNKTER!!!!! They are like the best band ever!!!... ok so I watched the Just Want You To Know video too many times to count. Me and Jimmy were watching the 40 Most Shocking Celebrity Mug Shots and guess who was on it at number 15... Mr. Nicholas Gene Carter of course... and his family. He had felt left out. Maybe wanted to compete with his sister's 3 times in the slammer... but we still love you Nicky!! I watched Tommy Lee Goes To College last night. I dont know how to feel, sometimes he tries and still sucks... even at the drums, and then there are times when he just partys. But you gotta cut the guy SOME slack... 43 years old and still in school cant be easy. After that was Gene Simmons Rock School. Um... good luck Gene.

Story from Tommy Lee Goes To College in the title, Rad. He was with his maybe chemistry professor and they were in the lab. Tommy was like dude, all this equipment is rad. The prof. said no Tommy, this is rad... and showed him what a radian was. Haha Tommy was amazed... didnt we learn about radians in 8th grade?

Yeah. Done some of that lately. I just feel so weird. Well this is what's been happening. My Storm cheerleading coach, Sean announced one Monday that he got a teaching job in Cleveland. I was so upset, cried the whole practice. Then some of my team mates got in my face that I didnt know Sean because I was new to the team. That just really made me mad. I can be hooked to someone in a week, while Ive been on that team for three months. He was just a real character and practice will never be the same. I went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, first with my mom and brother, and then with Meredith. I loved it! Johnny Depp was just so hilarious, yet mysterious. The zoo has actually been okay. Last week I had the worst helper imaginable, Noah. I said that I would even rather have Austin, who we were slightly not impressed with the first week to say the least. Almost everyday me and Mere have gone to hear Ron talk. He is the head director of the gorillas that we've kinda gotten to know, considering we've listened to his keeper talk 11 times and counting. I went to my first Reds game with Matt and Jimmy. It was sooo much fun!! I cant believe Ive stayed home watching the same thing on tv. Im really excited to go again sometime, and maybe even a Bengals game. By the way, I feel bad for Terrell Owens at the moment. Oh and me, Eric, and Cory hanged out and Annie's one night. It was cool watching Hitch, but the rest was kinda awkward. I did something near breaking my nose that night and for some reason the Backstreet Boys music was just making me sad. I havent been too impressed with cheerleading, both of them. We did have a pool party for the school squad, but the only good part of that was riding in Mackenzie Bell's car. I dont know, I just dont feel like Im any good. For instance, yesterday they were having random people flying when we were doing pyramids at the gym. For some reason I had to go up and I was terrified. It was just an unstable, higher balance beam. I freaked out in the air and even though I want to face my fear, I probably wont get the chance to again. I dont know why Im afraid of those kind of heights because I love randomly falling. Because of my little faith in cheerleading Ive turned my attention back to gymnastics. I was told that Patrick Clark was doing private lessons at Gymnation. Patrick is honestly my hero. He was one of my old coaches and when he left to pursue music, I was heart broken. I was never the same with gymnastics and maybe everything else. He is the one person that can motivate me. Im praying that Ill get to work with him again. I cant help but cry just thinking of him. Anyway, volunteering at the zoo was probably most fun this week. Both of us are having our worst kids. It made my day to hear Mark saying "Wendell, Wendell, Wendell, Unicorn!, Wendell!" There was also Kara with "Do you have a question?" and Donovan answering, "My name is Donovan." All the staff were cracking up and the kids didnt seem to get it. But we have gotten to know the best people this week. Mere's instructor is Mark. He like just turned 21 and is so nice. He says thank you at every chance he can, loves the kids, and has the cutest laugh. There is also Mike Oehler. Haha I think he's darling. He is an incredibly nice volunteen. I thought he was practically mute. He just sits there with the calmest look on his face and will smile once and a while. We've agreed that he has no sense of direction. I dont think he has a car, but the other day he walked around the parking lot before going to the Rhino Cafe, came back for a second, and then walked around the parking lot again. It was interesting. A couple weeks ago he walked up behind us, rushed down Bear Hill, walked into the LaRosas, walked right back out, and went back up the hill. That boy is just too strange, but not in a bad way. Lastly is Nathan Hall. He's like 17 and also a teen. We've become friends with him. He's quite funny and today he ate lunch and walked around the zoo with us. It was really nice. Im really excited for the Volunteen party Wednesday. Its gonna be sweet! Well I've got tumbling... no comment, so see yall.
