Fundraising. Help!!!

^^^^^Choir Banquet Picture^^^^^

Okay. so. the first thing i tried to do to raise money for my europe trip was to sell candy bars. for $1 each. So if you ever want candy for cheap....COME TO ME!

2nd. Garage Sale. We had a garage sale where i made close to $80. That helps but i still need more help.

3rd. We made our awesome great hot sauce!!! it is $5 a jar. there is hot or mild (depending on your personal style) lol. So if you are a salsa person you can call me and i will be sure to sell you some.

4th. Mama (Carolyn) said that she might make me cakes to sell at like $12 each. Thats a great deal for how wonderful these cakes are.

5th. Another garage Sale. I am having peopple donate their unwanted things to me so that i can sell them at a garage sale that i am having very soon. so DONATE! PLEASE! lol.

Anyways, I'm on my way! I have made lots but i still need a lot more. So $3,000 is my total goal. plus my mom is going so thats $3,000 more. So about $6,000 dollars. I still need a lot. So if anybody wants to help me out in any way that is very much appreciated! Or if anyone has anymore fundraising ideas please help! THANKS!!!

Love,

Rocky (Loves Kemp)

School Starting, Europe fundraising. HELP!!!

I just got back from youth camp on Friday... So i have like absolutely nothing left except SHOWCHOIRCAMP this summer! Which i'm excited about because i'm in Show Girls and Varsity MIXED Choir..... Only like 3 sophomores are in that which is very good. I'm very excited about school starting which is like majorly surprising. I'm taking Chemistry, Algebra 2, BCIS, Spanish 2, Varsity MIXED Choir, Show Girls, English 2 Pre-AP,and AP World History. It will be a very tough year to schedule homework and Choir-wise. But I think I can do it. Pluss... I am going to try to do Athletic Training sometimes when I have off-time. But i doubt that will happen very often. But anyways....

I ussually don't enjoy school... BUT. Choir will be AMAZING.

We are going to Austria and a part of Germany. It costs a whole lot of $$$. So this SUMMER and SCHOOL YEAR I will be fundraising and saving up my $$$ like crazy. I have only like $50 or so at the moment. So it is safe to say no more shopping trips (like i do that anyways) till after Spring Break at least. I will have to be away from Kemp for like 10 days. I really wish he could go. I know I have not written in a while but i just haven't had the time this past semester. It was very difficult to find time for anything. So please forgive me. I'm trying to keep my GPA and Class Rank up there. The Fall Semester I was 23/734 people. so it was pretty good. So keeping up that standard will be HARD. But i'm trying. And blogging isn't like a #1 priority but its fun to do when I have the time.

So if anybody wants me to babysit i will do that for $$$. Cause I really want to go to Europe. BAD!!! I also will dog sit lol. or Cat sit even better but yeah lol. That would really help a lot. Just give me a job and i will try to help..... I need it. lol. Or if you want to work at six flags for me if you have a day or weekend off or that you are bored. thanks!

Let Me Know! lol

Bye!

Love,

Rocky! <3

sorry it's been a while...

I know it has been a very long time since i have posted. school started and i have been so busy!!! i wish i could have had time to. but i just haven't. we just took semester finals so i acctually feel refreshed, the new semester. my first semester of high school over. finally. i know i made a's in explorations, geometry, biology, athletic training, and choir. not sure about the other 2 yet. they havent posted grades yet.

I have had a crazy time lately. finals stress me out so much. wow. i have had crazy headaches. finals was actually a stress reliever. just that they were over. lol. I am not sure what to blog about. but ya know. Life is crazy/ high school is stressing and not the word scary but close like, ummm... intimidating. gotta go. bye!!!

Love, Rocky

So thats not the real story...

But this is......

So 2day me + Kemp r @ bishop which is my mom's work. this lady just had a historectomy. So she couldn't move anything. SO me + Kemp were volunteered to move all of her stuff out of her portable into another portable because hers was being condemned. Because of Mold. eew! That made me not really want to do it but i helped anyways. evn though i would have no choice anyways.

To be continued.......

FAT CAMP Continued....

Those r pics frm camp.

I am not sure where i left off exactly. so. I will tell u sum more. i ges. so we had a girls + boys night at camp. The Boys had a ton of fun, a blast. The girls. didnt. I HATED IT!!! The boys did this: Played tug of war with a truck, mud wrestled, whacked each other with things, + other "boy" things. + had a 15 minute talk about how 2 b good to girls. The girls did this: had an hour talk about how God owns ur body + stuf + then had wedding cake + mints. + then had a "surprise" Lual!!! omg! jk. I SKIPPED IT!!! IT SOUNDED DUMB! + i had already swam that day. i didnt feel like hanging out with a bunch of freak girls in a pool. Not fun 2 me. Me, Robyn, + my mom all skipd it. We packed instead. + then went 2 bed. aftr hearing the "human juke box" game till 2am!!! The othr church group was so loud! + we wer tryin 2 get 2 sleep!!! gsh.

My mom got a call @ 6am saying that Katie my sister had rolled out of bed + hit her tooth on the corner of the bedside table. She hit her tooth back into her head, her gums. She + my dad were in Slidel, Louisisna for Softball Nationals. So we had 2 leave camp early with Kemp + JD. Kemp didnt put n his contacts bcuz he was hurrying so fast so we could all leave. He couldnt see. atall. He is BLIND AS A BAT!!! lol.

SO... we left for Slidel. a 6 hour drive from Pineywoods. it was so fun! We had ran out of clothes. So we had 2 stop at a washateria wen we got there. it was kool. Oh + i got a surprise on the way. a new phone!!! A motorola razr!!! blue. navy. It was sooooo kool!!!!! OMG! lol. So then we got there + went 2 her softball game. she had been 2 a dentist + they told her 2 not play. but she did it anyways. lol. so we stayed at a reely nice hotel + went 2 all her games. she didnt win but she still has a good scar. lol.

Ok. so.....it was a 9 hour drive back. + i was craving SUBWAY!!! so i got it. i was so freaking happy!!! yay. 6" sub w/ ham, chz, mayo, + blk olives! ik weird but so delish!!! lol.

Youth, I mean, Fat Camp/Louisiana

Ok. so i got back from youth camp + Louisiana on Sunday @ 7pm. we left for youth camp on Mon. With all the youth. it was kool. i had sooooo much fun! omg omg omg. well anyways...heres my story(s)...lol...

We had jst got there + they had told us that we could only walk places + could not ride in any cars or vehicles of any sort. so we all decided that it was secretly a FAT CAMP. esspecially after we tasted the food. it was gross. they bought gross stuff so that they wouldn't have to buy as much because some ppl wouldn't eat it. ick. So at Fat Camp we walked prbly 500 miles all week! jk. maybe idk. jk. but a lot! lol. divide that by 10. hehe/ lol. And Aaron, you know, our youth minister, he didnt get to come to youth camp. he came down on Thursday night + left, well, thursday night. so we had Jon (the helper of Aaron). he was a boy chaperone. + so was Jackie B. + my mom + Cheryl B. were the girl chaperones.

i will finish this l8r..... g2g. bye.

Love, Rocky. to be continued!!!

Thank you. + more.

Thanks to all of yall that commented my blog about Callie. i kno i would not be able to deal with it as well if yall wernt n my life, and of course my family and other friends.

Okay so here is another very small story about Callie, this reely shows that she has a very strong opinion about things. lol.

We were in the car and we were all takling about how many children we want and if we want to have them at all. i said that I wanted to have 3 kids. and this is what callie said,

"I only have one word for you Rocky, Ouch."

Isnt that hilarious? lol. Well this is the 2nd of 2 incidents like this. before it involved tears. like this...

Okay so we were in the car and Callie was asking about children, she asked if it hurt to have kids, and mom of course said, "yes Callie, it does." And she burst into tears!!! We had no idea why. We asked her what was wrong and she said she didn't want to have kids. We told her she didn't have to. she said, " i dont? i thought evryone had to have kids." but she kept going on about it so i finally said, " Callie! No kid with alstrom has ever had kids!" We had been waiting to tell her that bcuz we didnt kno how she would take it. she sed," thats good to kno." we all laughed. hardcore yo. not evn kidding.

She talked about how she was gonna adopt a nice kid and feed it amazing foods. Yes she is for sure an Alstrom Syndrome kid. They are all obsessed with food. Speaking of Alstrom and food.

At the conference this little girl who has Alstrom wouldnt eat anything. So Callie went over there to her and sed, " You are an Alstrom Syndrome! You are supposed to always eat! And always want to eat!" So the little girl went and ate. It was hilariuous.

Okay well sry but i must go. lol. ttyl. bye!

Love,

Rocky (loves Kemp+ her sis Callie duh.)

Free MySpace slideshows, photo and video editing at www.OneTrueMedia.com

lets see if this slideshow reely works. Its one of me + my true buds! yeah! Then another blog about Callie following. please read it.


Hey. This is something that i need to say and saying wat i reely and truely think.

Well, you know how in a past blog i worte about how Callie, my sister has Alstrom Syndrome? + ecrything about it? well not evrything but sum? This is some more things that I need to say. It is very difficult to have a sister like Callie, or evn a family member. There are many mor things you hav 2 deal w/ than "normal" families do, well if there are any "normal". It makes life a lot tougher. But it is also a blessing. It helps you and lets you understand how other ppl feel who hav special ppl in their life and you kno to stand up for any one who is special. EVER! I ♥ Callie.

She has taught me so many things in my lifetime that she can't even begin to know or understand. I appreciate so much more because I have her in my life. Callie is one of the happiest, funniest, funnest and all around beats people out there. She doesn't let being blind, deaf, diabetic and many othe disabilities stop her from doing anything. Except eating sweets, she can't do that. :) She runs into walls, poles, and trips over cats, dogs, and everthing else in the floor and just jumps (not exactly) rite bak up and says, " I am bind! Hello! What do you expect?!?!?" She always makes us laugh with that one. and almost anything else she says. I mean she evn has excuses for not doing her homework. SHe says, " I am deaf! I didnt hear you say our homework! Speak louder next time if you want me to hear it." She is hilarious. I mean what can you say back to that?

She is now going into 6th grade. Middle school. ahh! i hate that i am moving 2 high school and wont get to be there for her first year. man. Another kool thing about her is that She gets sarcasm. She has since she was like 6. Its amazing. wat other kid do u kno that gets that wen shes that young?

With Callie having alstrom, life is a lot different, well duh u prbly r saying, but in many ways. I mean, you have to chng the diets of wat you eat sometimes, you have to sighted guide her, you hav to talk louder to her, esspecially wen she dznt hav in her hearing aids. The othr day Callie sed, "Kemp, Can you ask mom such + such?" He sed, "yeah." Then she asked him that like 3 more times + he sed "yeah" over and over agin til he finally sed, " Callie! I hav told you Yes 4 times!" then i sed, " She's deaf!" It was so funny.

Callie trys to be very independant, and she is. She will walk off by herself bcuz she thinks sumthing is sparkley or shiny. ik that sounds dumb but think about it this way, if u wer almost all of the way blind wouldn't you think that shiny or sparkley things wer amazing? Dnt deny it, u kno you would. Wen we wer in Boston after Callie had jst finished 2nd grade, We wer at Quincy Market + she ran (well walked) off by herself because she saw a clock which she thought was amazingly shiny and kool. We panicked and looked evrywhere 4 her and found her ooh-ing and aww-ing at the clock. She did get in trouble, but. ya know. She also LOVES things that feel good, silk, velvet, and those kinds of fabric. I mean she cant see em so she likes the feel of things, if ya know wat i mean.

Alstrom has emmotional things also. They some of the time die wen they are younger. i think the avg years of living is 17-19 years. It is sad, ik, but I can a lot of the time handle it betr than i used to could hav. But ya kno. She has jst been diagnosed w/ prbly having a heart defect thing. It hurts my feelings and jst me in general. but. Ther is nothing i can do about it. I jst hav to deal w/ it. hardcore, ik. But ik that I can do it. At least i have family and friends and That Callie does too that have to deal with all of this stuff with me. I mean Callie has SOOOOO many ppl that love and support her. We hav a coins for Callie donation jar thingy that ppl who dnt evn kno us hav supported evrything and Callie w/o evn knowing how much it helps! It does break my heart to kno all of this stuff about Callie and all of evrything. But i am greatly glad that ik it all. I would hate that 2 b a surprise. I nprmally love suprises but that ouwld b a SUCKY suprise if u kno wat i mean. It would b much harder on me if it was sudden than if its over a period of time. If u get wat i am saying. Dnt u agree? well anyways I jst felt like saying that now. It helps a lot. Thanks.
