*oww* I feel good! *na na na na na na na*...

Ok. So this post is going to kinda tie in religion FYI.

The steps to repentence/forgiveness are as follows.

• recognize that you have done wrong (oops. that didn't go right.)
• don't repeat the wronging (never again...)
• recommit yourself to living a better life (yay! party!)
• make restitution for the wrongs you committed (that means apologize. duh)
• feel remorse for the wronging (awh. i hate this feeling.)
• know that repentence requires time and effort (how much longer!?)
• resolve the feelings of retribution (no hard feelings... right?)
• receive forgiveness (from everyone)

So we had this lesson in sunday school and the whole time, I just had this nagging feeling that I hadn't fulfilled my repentence. There are a couple of girls that I've had rough friendships with and the second my teacher said "Our lesson is on repentance", I felt the pit in my stomach grow. Throughout the whole lesson, it just kept getting deeper and deeper. I promised myself that I would do what I had to do when I got home to make the whole situation better with those girls. I've been feeling remorse from what I've done for a while now, and since I moved schools, it has gotten worse. I feel terrible for everything that I have done in these fights we've been in and I needed to do my part to make it better.

Today, I sent a long, heartfelt email to the 2 girls apologizing for every thing I'd ever said, thought or done to them that hurt them. I asked their forgiveness and I sincerely apologized. The minute I clicked the "Send" button, I immediately felt better. The pit that had grown on Sunday was gone. I know that I did my part in the apology and I took another step in repentence.

AC Joints SUCK.

So I got back from the Chiropractor today with some devastating news....

But before I tell you the news, I have to tell you what happened.

I was at swim practice about a month ago and I was doing a pulling set. I wasn't fully inshape yet and I grabbed a set of hand paddles. Big Mistake. I was just about to glide into the wall and I took one last stroke and I heard a huge "POP" and felt my whole shoulder move in a way that shoulder's aren't meant to move. I sat out the rest of practice and just stretched. I only went to one other practice and then I left on my cruise.

Monday (June 15), my mom took me to Dr. Rosquist (chiropractor) and he told me that I had just sprained my Rotating Cuff Tendon and that I'd be out for like 2 weeks at the most. Wrong.

Today, I went to a different chiropractor who was really good. (Don't get me wrong, Rosquist is amazing. He just wasn't as specialized in this injury as this other guy). He had spent like a year studying shoulders, elbows, ankles, arms, legs, and etc. So anyway, He did some tests on my shoulder and came up with the following diagnosis: My AC Joint is a complete wreck. I'm not allowed to lift my arm at all which means....No Swimming. I can't swim until my shoulder is better. This is devastating. He said it could take a few weeks at the LEAST.

Pray that I'll get better, please.

SUMMER ALREADY!!!

Alright! It's officially summer and I'm ready to party!!! (:



So last week was my cruise...here's a few pics....and this isn't even the half of it. not even a quarter of it. not even a HUNDRETH of all the pics we took.

(last pic: that's my whole group minus the other 5 guys who didn't go. L-R: Jessie, Lauren, Me, Stephen, Bethany, Angie, Preston, Madi, and Madz)

So... Yeah! I've had a great time. Except I got home from my cruise and I threw up. It was so lame. I'm recovering right now tho so I'm good.

I've also really badly sprained my rotating cuff tendon *shoulder* while I was at swimming. I'm out of swimming for probably 2 weeks, as long as i do my stretches. (what if i don't!?) kidding. Well yeah. It sucks.

Gimmie a call my friends. I'm bored.

HAVE A FANTASTIC SUMMER!

- - 120th post! - -

So it's my 120th post! wow, that's a lot to post! I feel so accomplished.

Anyways....Me and him broke up. I realized that I don't want a boyfriend. I'm too young. I like being boyfriend-less. Then I'm free to have crushes *crushes are super-fun(: *, I'm free to shamelessly flirt with whom ever I please *and i very muchly enjoy flirting.*, and I don't have to worry about the whole stress of being a couple. He was pretty sad about it, but I think he'll get over it soon enough. School's almost out and after a whole summer of not being together, he'll be long over me. (I hope...)

Well yeah, 3 FREAKING DAYS OF SCHOOL LEFT!!!! WHOAH! I'M SO EXCITED! Go Summer! Woot woot! (: and on the 7th, I'm going on tour with my dance studio and we're going on a cruise! I'm so excited, I'll have to post about that when i get back on the 14th!

Then....party time. *evil summer laugh*
