Wow! I am getting old, I can harldy believe it myself. I don't feel like I am ninteen...yet. This is my last year as a teenager, woah...I won't be able to be a "teenie bopper" anymore, and that was FUN. But I will make sure this year is everything I am hoping it to be. I am so excited! My birthday was SO much fun. I thank everyone for all their lovely cards and gifts : ) They were all so sweet. My friends here in Hawaii made my day really special too.
This Thanksgiving was definitely not the typical thanksgiving day... this is why: it was a warm sunshinee day, and my friends and I got to go to the beach, I even got to SURF again! It was great that my family got to see me on the Waikiki Beach Camera. That was so cool : ) Dinner was spent at our pastors house, and it was delicious! I am so thankful to God who has blessed me with such lovely friends and family. You guys are so great! I am also thankful for the beach, sun, palm trees, polaroid photos, sand, YoungLife, music, christmas songs, talking on the phone, tutoring, laughing, Campus Crusade for Christ, carmello puppy, sharing memories, having adventures, living my life to the fullest, dancing, smiling :)... those are just a few of course!
