I'm Baaaaack!
Hey! Wow! It sure has been awhile since I posted! lol So sorry. LOTS has been going on, some exciting stuff too. I dunno if I wanna type it ALL...i'm kinda afraid the ppl that i'll write about will read it. :os But i'll use fake names. lol (this is so korny)
OK...there's this guy named...uhh...Tristan! yeah! lol I found out that he liked me about a month ago...but I didn't know him to well, so we started hanging out and stuff and he's actually a pretty kewl and funny guy. And about a week ago he asked me out, but I'm not aloud to date him and I don't think I could like him like THAT. So I had to tell the guy no. :( I felt kinda bad...but he's so kewl..he hasn't held any grudges against me and has just stayed a good friend to me. I admire him so much for that, most guys wouldn't do that and it's so kewl that he does. And I'm SO happy that we can stay friends. Even though he is kinda flirty whenever I see him...lol...it's kinda cute though. And every time we IM he always says goodbye with "XOXO". It's sooo cute! I was really afraid that I would lead him on in some way if he didn't ask me out...b/c sometimes I feel like I'm being flirty w/o meaning to, but he's been really great about just keeping the relationship at a friends status. Which I like very much.
OK...now theres this other guy, who I'll call...ummm...Mark. I swear I'm falling luv w/ the guy! It sounds so weird to say that, but he is soooo kewl! And sooooo hott! lol My word! I know that might not sound like the greatest thing for a girl to say...but HO-LY COW!!!!!!! Everytime I see him my heart flutters and my stomache does flip flops. And when he smiles...that's it...i feel like i'm gonna pass out! OH man! We've been chating a lot lately and I've been trying to get to know him better (b/c I don't know him as well as I would like to ;) ), and it's been really fun! He's so nice. He dosen't short change me or act like I'm an annoyance when we're chatting or anything. It's so kewl to meet a guy like that. I really enjoy the times I get to talk to him. Everything about him is just soo kewl. *sigh* This is gonna sound so So SO dumb...but I really want to hold his hand. LOL! Like if we started forming a relationship and stuff and doing stuff together it would be so kewl to just hold hands. I don't even care if I don't get a kiss (which wouldn't be bad! lol) or anything...if I could just hold his hand once I would be soooo happy! I'd be floating on cloud 9 I swear!
Well...enough babbling about boys...lol..I'd better get off. TTYL! mWAH mWAH!
Later Days!

Happy Birthday To Me!!!!!!
Well, I'm not really holding up my new years resolution am I? But I can explain, you see, I TURNED 16!!!!!! Whoohoo! And then I had a PARTAY!! lol OK, OK, lemme back up a bit. The 8th was my actual birthday. And that was also the 1st day back to gym and choir. I missed gym a lot. It was kewl to go back. Even though some people that drive me kinda crazy were sadly there, there were friends there to fix it all. Jenna Stoner came! That was kewl! She wished me happy birthday like 20 times. lol And the Wagars (Joe didn't pay much attention, but he's a Wagar, so I guess he counts. And Mrs. Olive was there too, with Dave Ramsey in hand! lol That's my girl!). Lisa wished me happy birthday Kronk style. (for all you sheltered people out there, watch Emperers New Groove.) And, then that night at choir Pam had the WHOLE choir sing me happy birthday! (even this one lady that I ABSOLUTLY can not stand. Grrrr! somebody tell her she stinks and to quit being so annoying! GOSH! Take a shower lady! But I won't mention names b/c I have this phobia (sp?) that the people I "bad mouth" will read what I write and hate me for all of eternity.) So that was embarrassing yet very fun. Even though I hate having Happy Birthday sung to me. I like it, but I hate it. Like, I never know what to do except stand there and smile like an idiot. But I DO like the recognition. It's the one day I'm aloud to be self-centered and get away with it. :)
Then on Friday (the 9th) we had book club. We finished up Peter Pan and watched Hook! I luv that movie! ("Come on explode out of there! Stop the sherode!" just to let you know, I have no idea how to spell sherode, so just deal. lol) And, of course, the Buchanan's didn't come. (this is a time when I hope they never read this) They act like thier to good for us or something. Like, whenever we talk about things we like, they don't like it. Lindsey always says, in her whinny voice, "well, we kinda don't like that. I think it's stupid." about just about everything. It's like, well why did you even join then if your gonna hate everything we do! For petes sakes! It REALLY get's annoying. And not to mention her mom is rude too. And Becca is just annoying. She tries TOO hard to be your friend. If she just lightened up a little bit I like her. And thier brother is WIERD! He spiked the front of his head red! Ickerumba!
But anyhoo, enough dissing people. Then after book club the girls and I had lunch and then we went to the mall for the rest of the day. And I had just about the best mall experience I have ever had! lol We went to the Build-A-Bear-Workshop for the 1st time! It was sooooo fun! I picked out a little black bear, and got him stuffed and picked out a heart for him. They make you do all this funny stuff too. Like warm it up, then tap it twice to get it beating, then rub it on your belly so it can eat, then on your head so he'll be smart, then on your ear so he can hear, and then the guy had me do the CHICKEN DANCE in front of the WHOLE store so that it could dance! I was like "umm, no, I don't really want to dance in front of everybody." and he's like, "well, fine then, it's your black bear, I guess I just can't give it to you then." So after some more persuading I did it. And I think it made the guys day b/c when we went back into the store later we kept catching each others eye across the room and laughing at each other! It was kinda odd but very funny. So anyhoo, after all that I went to the "bath tub" to brush him out and blow all the x-tra fuzz off of him. Then I picked out his clothes! I picked out this cute little camaflouge (sp? lol) outfit that says "B.A.B.W." on the shirt for Build.A.Bear.Workshop. It's soooo cute! And then I went to the computers to print off his birth certificate. I named him Jack after Captain Jack Sparrow in POTC. lol And then I went up to the desk where they printed off my certificate. And they gave me a free calander. And the lady and I got to talking and she's like "so is there any special reason your getting this bear?" and I said "well yeah, yesterday was my birthday." and she goes "oh happy birthday!" and she asked how old I was and she gave me a birthday CD. And then she's like "well could you please stand up on the counter?" I was like "ummm, no, I don't really want to. The other guy already made me do the chicken dance." and she laughed and said "oh come on, it won't hurt." so I did and she rang the bell and had the whole store wish me happy birthday! And Lisa, Sarah, Jenna,and Bethany were dying at this point of course. But it was all too much fun to hate. And then they put this happy birthday thing on my bears house and we were off. Later on we went back and Bethany got a Valentines Day teddy and named it Candy, or Candy Lou is her full name. She's sooo cute! And then on Saturday we played Dutch Blitz! I am so in luv with that game it's not even funny! In fact we ordered one on the internet today! It'll be here in about a week or 2. And then later on we went and saw ROTK!!!!!!!! It is sooooo good! I almost cried. Bethany thinks i'm evil b/c I didn't. But I had to hold it back so hard that the lump in my throat was burning. Some parts were just tear jearkingly sad. But I made it. My DAD even cried! It was so cute. And then we dropped Sarah off at home, Dutch Blitz and all. And then Bethany and Lisa didn't go home until like 11:00 b/c her dad and joe were at a basketball game!
But it was all fun. That's prolly one of the best birthdays I've ever had. Although Jenna could prolly kill me b/c it's made me obcessed with B.A.B. lol
Well, I'd better get off. School tomorrow and who knows what else. lol And I really want to work on my site tomorrow. Later!
Luv Always,
:-: Jasper :-:

It's Getting Cold!! YaY!!!!!!
Yesterday was pretty boring, but I did get a lot done! I made a page on my website devoted to one of my favorite movies, Signs. And I added a pic on the My Horses page. And I'm going to completely re-construct my LOTR page b/c right now it's just a jumbled mess! And I'm going to build a POTC page! (Pirates of the Caribbean) And a writing page. But I have to think of a name for it. hmmmmmm, is a puzzlement (as the king of Siam would say on the King and I).
Guess what? IT'S FREEZING!!!!! Isn't that awesome?! The thermometer says it's like 30 degrees! How kewl is that?!?!
Guess what? I'll be 16 in 2 days! (That's Thursday, January 8th for all you people w/o a calander) And I'm having a party on Friday and Saturday. I'm having Lisa and Bethany and Sarah over to spend the night! We have book club that day, so they will just stay after book club and then we're going to the mall! ALL DAY! Whoohoo! And then Saturday we're going to go see a matinee of ROTK! That'll be the kewlest part! I probably all ready told you this, but oh well. lol Lisa and Bethany and Sarah all pitched in and gave me $20 dollers so that me and my family could go see the movie. So if the tickets aren't more then $5 a piece (which I doubt they would be, espectialy for a matinee) we can all get in w/ my money! I'm sooooo excited!
And Thursday, the day of my birthday, is the 1st day back to Gym! I can't wait for that either. Now that I've been going I really missed it over Christmas break.
Well, I'd better get off. My mom wants me to run the sweeper AGAIN when just ran it like, 2 days ago or something like that. Later!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!....late :os
Hey Hey!
What's goin' on? Happy 2004! That just sounds so wierd. I can't believe 2004 is already here! That means I only have 2 more years of school! WHOOHOO!!

I was just on Sarah's blog catchin' up on all of her entrys. Man, she makes me look so bad. She writes in her blog practicly everyday! I write when I feel like it. lol So my new years resolution is to be more dedicated to my site and my blog writing. And I admire her (Sarah) so much. She is such a Godly, sweet, nice, funny girl. I wish I could be like that. I mean i'm totaly comfortable with myself and who I am (all except for that lower stomach that never wants to go away! wuts up with that?), but I just wish I was as Godly as her. I'll be doing really good with communicating with God and praying and bible studying, and then I just stop, for no reason. She's Godly all the time! I need some lessons here or something. I mean, I've been taught to be Godly and read my bible and pray my whole life but, I dunno, I guess I just sort of let that all go away.
OMG! Before I get off I HAVE TO write about Friday! OK..Lisa and Bethany said that they wanted to have me and Jenna over for a sleepover b/c we hadn't done it in a long time. So I was like awesome! When, where, and what time! So Friday I get there and we sit all our stuff down and the house was really quiet! It was wierd. So miss wagar is like "the girls are in the basement Jasper" And I was like "well...Jenna's staying too ya know." lol But I didn't really pay much attention to that. So I walked down and it was still dead quiet. So I just thought they were watching a movie or something and I tried to be kinda quiet coming down. So I looked to one side and then when I turned my head to the other Sarah jumps out in my face and a camera and flashes it! And Lisa screams surprise at the top of her lungs and claps stupid little clappers in my face (that i wish i would have broken!), and Bethany honks horns at me! I felt like the press was following me for some big story! So I ran away screaming and laughing and trying to remind myself to take a breath! And the girls were just dying laughing. Bethany looked like she wanted to just pee all over herself. omg...it was great. I have never had a surprise party before, this was a great 1st one. And then they all pitched in a gave me $20 to go see ROTK! And Sarah bought me a new zebra CD case and a matching change purse w/ ear rings in them! It was the best party that I didn't know was coming that I ever had.
Well, I got to go, time to go to bed. I promise I'll try and write a lot more soon! I have to compete with Sarah! ;) Later!

Spiderman Can!!!!
There ya go Clint, the title is for you! Of course it would have helped if i'd have givein you the address to this yesterday at the Christmas thing, but hey! It's all good! lol
Man, yesterday was SUCH an awesome day! I had Christmas with my dads side (and Clint. lol!), it was soooo fun! I got a jewlry box from my Step-Grandma Becky. It was so cute to, she wrote "From: Grandma Becky" on my name tag thing on the gift. It was sooo cute! It's an awesome jewlry box though. It's cherry wood with light pink lining on the inside and a stained glass door! it's soooo pretty!
And then Jenna (my little sis) got a really kewl bag that says "All Star Athlete" with lip glosses, a key chain, body glitters, and fuzzy socks in it!
And then my mom got this basket with all kinds of stuff in it! Like 2 candles, smell good stuff, bath gloves (those are funny!), and a bunch of other stuff.
And my dad got a $15 gift card to home depot. my cousin goes "every man needs a home depot card!" lol! it was funny.
And then I played and ran around with my lil cousins, and my big cousins. (winks at Clint, Careis, and Brian. Well...Careis, your not really my cousin yet, but your with Clint, so you count. lol) It feels and sounds so funny to say that I played. lol But I did! And it was fun! teehee
Omg, i'm practically bouncing off the walls here, we open presents in 2 days! Christmas Eve morning!!!!!!!!! whooopeeeeeeee!!!!!!! My parents are starting to get really irritated with me b/c I keep reminding them. lol And my mom hasn't even wrapped our presents yet! I want to be held in some sort of suspense! It wouldn't be Christmas w/o that! teehee. I think I already know what some of my presents might be. I think Jenna got me a horse paint by number that I want and this little figurine of a horse that you paint. And then I think a couple of the things my mom got me are a belt and some more clay. And possibly some clothes, makeup, and *ahem* girls undergarments. :os But I did ask for all that stuff, so I can't really complain much. But I hope I see the "undergarments" before anybody else when I open them. IF I got them that is. lol
Well, I'd better go. TTYL! I'll try to write about what I get Wednesday! Later!
Merry Christmas!
:-: Jasper :-:

Updates And More Rambling *sigh*
Hey Hey,
OK, for an update, did ya'll notice that I changed my blogs name? Thaaaaat's right! It was plain old boring Jasper's Blog, now it's A Penny For My Thoughts. Is that creative or what? I think so!
OK, what else has been going on? ummmm...oh yeah! Wednesday was the Alternative Christmas party! That was fun. Jessie was kinda being all wacked out at the beginning and I was having the hardest time figguring it out. (dumb old me, I thought she was mad over some candy. lol i'm such a retard. shoot me now before i destroy the world in my stupidity) But then it was all good later, we hugged kissed and made up. (if there was anything the make up about. Frankly i was so confused I just went along with her. lol told ya, i'm a 'tard!) And I got to see Toney and Jacob! How kewl is that! I missed them guys so much it wasn't even funny. I know they'd prolly think I was weird for saying that, but it's true. They are genuinly very nice guys and I luv them to pieces. And Jessie: Yes, I luv Toney too. But don't go all gangsta on me, you can keep him. lol
And then Thursday we had the last Homeschool Gym Day before Christmas. That was kinda bitter sweet. Nobody cried or anything, but it was still bitter sweet just the same. But it was kinda kewl b/c some people that don't come very much came. Like Josh Moody was there! That was kewl. I hadn't seen him since we had gone to Kings Island this past summer. He's really kewl and nice and stuff. I thought he was going to give himself a heart attack playing basketball though! His face was blood red! My gosh! It was almost scary! lol But it was all good.
And then Mike Koon came with his sister Mandy. I'm tellin' ya, they are some of the kewlest kids I know. They are soooo nice to everybody. And they are REALLY funny! Mike cracks me up! He was reacting (sort of) Star Wars with my LOTR poster that Lisa got for me for Christmas! lol It was HILARIOUS! OMG! And then Lisa did something totaly bad but histaricly funny! She locked the keys in the car! And it was like the 2nd time this month she said! Sarah, me, Mike, and Johnanthan were like DIEING laughing! It was one of the funniest things I've ever seen! But luckily Joe had his spare set of keys and we got them out. We thought that she was about to lock BOTH sets of keys in and we all sceamed at her and she like "Chill out! I have them!" lol It was sooo funny. *Sighs* it's the simple things in life. lol
And then my parents had to go to a Christmas party, so my mom took Jenna and I to Hollywood video and we rented some movies to watch while they were gone. We got POTC (oh yeah! savvy poppet! lol!), Santa Clause 2 (adorable movie! i luv it!), and Finding Nemo. I luv that movie. It's hilarious!
Oh! And guess what! IT'S BEEN SNOWING ALL MORNING!!!!!!!! It stopped just now, but we have about an inch and a half. It was soooo pretty all morning. I'm so happy. And on the news they said that there is a very good chance that we will have snow for Christmas!!!!!!! How great is that!!!! Whoopeee!
Well, I've rambled enough for now. Glad I got you caught up on my life. lol TTYL! If for some reason I don't get to post before Christmas, have a blessed and very Merry Christmas!
Luv Always,
:-: Jasper :-:

Busy Day!
Whew! I'm beat! Today was really busy. First of all, I'm so happy because yesterday my dad and I put up our outside Christmas lights! They look spectacular! (i luv that word!) It was fun. Not to mention that I thought of an ingenious idea to helpt he process along. * Bows and does the queen wave* Thank you, thank you very much!
Anyhoo, then today we got up at 7:00 am (as usual) for church, went to church, sang in the choir, and Tara Thurman came and sang today! She was sooooo great! My church is in luv with her! She sang "Mary Did You Know?" beautifly. Then we went to Kroger and my mom took FOREVER to get the groceries! Then we came home and ate, after stopping in the Wendy's drive through and seeing an old friend working the window. And now we're all just chillin' and my dad is watching the Bengals play. But what else is new? lol

Signs of Christmas!
I got my first Christmas presents this week! The book club wrapped up for the year yesterday by reading The Christmas Carol and then watching Muppet Christmas Carol while pigging out on snacks. lol Then we exchanged gifts! To be honest, my heart was about the thump out of my chest the whole time we were watching the movie! I couldn't wait for it to be over so that we could open our gifts. I've only seen a billion times...but it was still good. Bethany made all of her gifts! They are soo kewl! She made me a picture frame with hearts on it and put a picture of Orlando Bloom in it from his new movie! I about fainted! And then she also made me this little Gandalf, he's sooo cute! And she made me this really awesome coin that looks just like the one from Pirates of the Caribbean! (also an Orlando movie. :D ) It's awesome! And her and I made all the girls Arwen necklaces like the one from the movie! But Jenna's came apart and then Jenna and I were goofing off and she BROKE mine! I about died! But we glued them together so it's all good. And then Sarah got me some bubble bath, lotion (cucumber melon, mmmmmm!), a journal and a pink gel pen! And Lisa got us stuff too but she forgot it. lol She's goofy. But it was so much fun. Oh yeah! And Beth made Sarah a pipe like Aragorn and Gandalfs! (I call it Aragorns, but I think i'm partial to him, so everybody else says it's Gandalfs. lol) It is soooo kewl! Sarah brought her camera and took pictures of us all with it in our mouths. It was a riot.
Well, I had better get going. TTYL!
:-: Jasper :-:

Rambling For The Sake of Rambling
I want more snow! ACK!!! This is how I get every year, in December I get CRAZY for snow. Then after Christmas and when it gets to about the middle of January I'm like "OK, go away now please, I'm done with you." lol I'm odd I know.
I'm starting to get anxious, and I don't really know why. Well actually, I do. I'm getting anxious to go shopping! I luv to shop for Christmas, and once I get my mind set I can't wait to get out there and shop. It's like I have to go now, now, now and I can't stop my mine from rushing things. I don't WANT to rush things, but my brain does. I keep telling myself "just calm down, you have 3 weeks until Christmas! That's plenty of time!" but it doesn't work that great sometimes. It's like I get so excited that my brain starts to rush it. JUST STOP! lol But, you gotta luv it though. It's part of what makes this whole time of year enjoyable for me. Other people panic. I take a deep breath and tell my heart to slow down, and my brain to shutup for a minuete and take a chill pill. That usually works. ;D But I can't wait to shop. Sarah and I are prolly gonna go shopping together in a couple of weeks. I can't wait! It'll be a blast to shop with her!
Well, I think I'm done rambling for now. I had better get off. TTYL!
:-: Jasper :-:

All The Snow's Gone
Well, the light dusting that we got yesterday evening, yup, gone...all gone. Sad isn't it? Oh well, if my hunch is right *leans in and whispers* I think we're getting more in the near future!
Anyhoo. What did I do today? Well, I went to church. I had nursery duty today so I didn't get to talk to my girl Jessie. That always makes me sad. But oh well. I luv that girl so much it's not even funny. I would kiss her if my gut wouldn't stop screaming NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! :)
And then I called Sarah b/c she can't write a clear e-mail one day in her life! She's asking me when i'm going to pick her up on the 17th. For wut? Why? Does she REALLY want me to do that? I mean, I have no license! She'd be asking for it man i'm tellin' ya!
Ummmm, and then I've been online since like 3:30 probably and it's 6:02 now. My eyes feel like thier dying! (If that's at all possible)
Oh yeah. And today, in sunday school, we played this game where we pretended that we were going to see LOTR: ROTK (translation: Lord of the Rings: Return of the King) and we had to come up with something (realistic or silly) that we would bring to the movie that started with a letter of the alphabet. And it didn't have to be in order. Then we went around the room saying what we would bring. And you had to repeat everything everybody before you had said IN ORDER! It was chaotic. Let's see, can I remember? OK, Joe: and apricote, Mark: a Bible, Justin G.: carrots, Justin S.: chocolate, Teddy: Popcorn, Dan: his hamster Bubbles (HA!), Dean: magic markers, Eric: a watch, Jessie: orange juice, Me: a Xylophone (sp?) with a Z (will explain in a sec), Jenna: an apple, Jen: Lembas, Amanda: BOTTLED water, Alyssa: shoes, Jacob: a trashcan, Josh: a duck, Darren: Sting (read the book for this and Lembas, you'll get it), 2nd time got half way around. so ON TOP of allll that stuff you had to add, WITH YOUR EYE'S CLOSED BTW,: Joe: rubber biscuts, Mark: a girl (rolls eyes) and I think thats all. Whew! Preasure! lol OK, about the Xylophone with a Z, I said Xylophone, but then i added "yeah, you have to have something that starts with a Z!" and Mark's like "ummm, it starts with an X" I was embarrassed. lol But everybody said "Xylophone with a Z" the whole time. Grrrr! I'm so annoying! I even annoy myself! (Mark, if you ever see this, don't EVEN bring up the annoying thing. kk? thanks)
Well, since i've bored you to death, I've gotta go. TTYL! Pray for more snow!
