Becca and Becca.

One of my best friend's and I share the same first and middle name: Becca Mae. On Monday, Becca and I met at Hagerstown City Park to walk around and talk for awhile. I, of course, brought my camera with me so I could take pictures of our adventure.




She chased a few ducks/geese that day, and this one is my favorite shot of her doing so :)


Cowden, you're a truly unique person who is beautiful inside and out. I love you dearly.



We'll always been friends... even when we're far away from each other :)

He did it!

Jon graduated! I had to sit there for 2 and a half hours for a moment moment that lasted 5 seconds, but it was worth it. Congratulations Jon! :)

Hebron!

Today Jon took us on a hike at Hebron Rock Colony Falls. Imagine a river that goes down a hill (kind of like a water fall, but it has rock all underneath) and in this river there are HUGE boulders that you have to climb over in order to hike. When you get really close to the top there's a big poll of water because of beaver dams. It's really cool! I'll post pictures later :) Unfortunately mom fell and did a split and is now in a lot of pain.

Since arriving in Boone, I haven't had a decent cup of coffee. I tried some of the coffee at the free continental breakfast at our hotel... It didn't taste that delicious. I also had a raspberry mocah later and it wasn't that great. I'm pretty sure she burn the milk when she steamed it and the shot was way to bitter. Oh well.

I'm still really full from lunch. We went to a place called "The three amigos." I had chicken and cheese quesedillas. That was at 3 and now 5 hours later at 8 o'clock I'm still full. At 9:15 we're meeting Jon and some of his friends at Ruby Tuesdays for dessert. I'm kinda sorta very much so looking forward to this. I want to sugar to help me stay awake.

I was fortunate enough to be able to talk to Cody for a few minutes last night/this afternoon for about 5 minutes. This weekend he's at Aquire the Fire in Baltimore. It's really nice that we're both out of town the same weekend instead of two separate weekends.

And now I'm heading to Jon's apartment.

Farewell!

North Carolina!

I'm laying here on my bed in the hotel in North Carolina. After the 6 hour car ride me and my family are finally here. Unfortunately, mom has a head ache and wants to take a nap before we go to see Jon. Luckily for me, she brought her lap top and the hotel has free wi-fi.

My brother's best friend McConnell came down to see Jon as well. They're both at Jon's apartment waiting for us to get there.

I think tonight's plans are going out to eat with Jon's roommate (David) and his family. After that we're doing something that I believe Jon called an "Art Crawl." There is a street in the good ol' town of Boone that is pretty much all art galleries, and every Friday they open their doors to everyone. You start at one end and visit all of the art galleries and buy art if you wish to do so (and if it is on sale). The turn out is apparently pretty good. However, I think most people go for the free food and alcohol.

The hotel bed is hard and not very comfortable... Maybe it will grow softer the more tired I become.

51 days!

Today, Mom and I went out and ordered my graduation announcements. I can't believe that in 51 days I'll be done with high school forever! Actually, I'll be done before then, but that's when graduation is. Life goes by so quickly... It seems like just last summer me and my family were getting ready to send my brother off to college, but it was really four years ago... And now he graduates from Appalachian State University on Sunday (Mother's day).
I have four years of college to figure out exactly what I want to do with my life... Actually, I have two before I have to pick a major. I have no idea what I want to be when I 'grow up.' I know I want to get married and have kids... but beyond that, I don't know. Maybe I'll figure it out soon :)

Dumb Doctor

The Doctor said, "Drink fluids, you'll be fine, see you!" I was literally there two minutes. Such a waste of time/money. Luckily, I'm feeling better. My throat is still a little bit raw, and my ear aches a little bit, but I'm able to move around and I'm beginning to be able to eat a little bit again. My mom took really good care of me. She got me whatever I needed and stayed by my side :)

Cody was truly wonderful and came over to check on me a few times. He wouldn't leave my side for hours at a time. We sat on the couch (well, he sat, I was laying down) and watched LOST. He would fetch me whatever I needed. He even brought me a dozen pink roses to cheer me up :)

I'm officially done with finals at HCC! I think I got an A in photography, and a B in English. I'm content with both of those grades :) Only 110 days until classes start at Liberty University! I can't believe how quickly that it is approaching.

Since I'm graduation highschool, my parents are buying me a lap top... but not just any laptop... A MAC! I'm getting a macbook pro. I'm really excited. We're not ordering it until we get a free ipod with purchase (every year at the 'back to school' time, they do that as a promotion).

I'm off to get some more rest,
Becca

P.s. Niquil is my friend :D

Cinderella is sick!

The performance of Cindy and the Godfather went really well! The dress rehearsals we had on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday really helped. Unfortunately, on Monday I began to get a sore throat. I drank tea with honey (thank you for the honey, Cody) and tried to limit my talking. However, when I was on stage, I pushed myself to be the loudest and to really try to be in character. I felt so bleh every night. The performance started Thursday. I began to feel sicker and sicker, but I refused to let anyone know... Sadly, I woke up Sunday with no voice, and completely sore and unable to move... I shouldn't have pushed myself as hard as I did.
I have a doctor's appointment in a half hour... Guess I should leave. Here's hoping I get better.
