High School Soccer
Even though this blog is mainly about my book I will continue to relay events in my life. I am on the Union High School Soccer Team. I am number 34. I have had fun and have learned a lot and even though I am not the best player on the team I am glad to be able to participate on the team. We have so far played eight games. Union at Morgan, we won Varsity 4-2 and JV 2-2. Then Carbon at Union, we won Varsity 8-0 and JV 4-1? Then Union at Delta we lost Varsity 3-1 and JV 3-0 but Union at N. Sanpete we won Varsity 8-0 and JV 4-1. I am on the JV Team.

Update
Okay, so we got a new computer and either it's having a hard time doing what I want it to do or the blog thing is being stupid because it won't let me post any pictures... so this is what you get.
So the book is coming along... I am going over it again and fixing up some new things and some mistakes... changing names is the hardest to do because you can't miss one or it will throw everything off especially when you have the book completed and you realize that the name you have isn't working... also when you don't like most of the scenes you've written and want to edit most if not all of them and you have to go very slowly and figure out what you want to do. Especially when you try to read it out loud to see how it sounds and your family doesn't like it... well, I'm grateful for what they say and all... it's just frustrating when my goal is so close to being passed by me... well my first goal anyways.
So far I have 336 pages and I am still going. I just hope that I can get it all worked out soon and that I can finally turn to my other book. Yet I won't turn to my other book until I have officially finished this one.
I need boy names... There are four main characters, Sendra, Mitch, Tyrone, and Bracken... I need to change either Sendra or Bracken but I like both names where they are. So I'm trying to find a name that appeals to me more than Bracken but so far none have. If anybody has any ideas it will be greatly appreciated but a note of caution... if I don't use the name I don't want people feeling bad... I try to fit names according to their parts.
Writing a book is so complicated and stressful... especially when during the summer you have both parents working so you get stuck with the job of babysitting kids who are so difficult to watch when trying to focus on a book and them when they hardly listen to you anyways. I think I know how some moms feel and I feel bad for them. Sorry... you have my pity.
However, despite having troubles... it has been a great experience to babysit my... siblings... the little darlings. Sometimes, surprisingly, they can be a help to my book... like a listener or giving their point of view and what they think or personalities of... certain characters.
I haven't really kept this blog up very well but hope to end that as I change it's status to my book instead of me. I guess it should be plural... my books. I hope I don't bore you to death with them... they intrigue me.
To my listeners, thanks for listening to my book, it helps for me to understand what mistakes I make and different possibilities and points of view.
I hope to keep this blog about my writing dream better updated than when I did before. Thanks to those who help.

I had to get a picture of Katelin when she was asleep!!!
Haha there's my friend Joshua Price who is posing for the camera... it was hilarious.
Haha I kept trying to get a picture of my fellow flutist, Kinley Mccook don't think I spelled it right, but anyways, this was one I almost had!!! I did get her but thought I'd show you this mess up.
Haha I was trying to get pictures of random people and would scare some!
This is Kamila Olsen!!! I like her too, she is a good person. It was fun to have her on the trip!!! I think the one behind her is Jessica Ivy or something... I'm not for certain I'm really bad with names!!! Sorry.
Here is some of my stuff and all. My souvenier's I think I spelled that wrong... sorry
Katelin got a necklace and I wanted a picture with it on her.
This was on the ferris wheel and I thought it was pretty good of a moto.
This is our band director, Mr. Forsyth. I found this picture very amusing I hope you find it as funny as I did.
I got a picture of Forsyth in line for a ride and some of the people he was with. There's Eddie Krismouskie I know I spelled that wrong I'm so sorry, and Gideon Hatch (I have no idea if I've been spelling his name wrong but if I have I apologize.

Here is a good picture of the big buildings in the city... well from where we were at. Yeah this is while waiting in line for a roller coaster. There was also a train that was e ........ x........... t ......... r........... e............. m........ e........... l.......... y........ l................o.............n...........g.......!!! It was ridiculous!!! But kinda cool to see.
We got bored waiting in line and kinda just took pictures. There is Katelin and Amee... by the way besides being bored we are all really happy!!! We may look like we've been crying but trust me we weren't it was simply the wait in the line!!! I loved Katelin's face in this picture... you had to be there to see it in full details but too bad for all you out there I got to see it HAHAHAHAHA!!! Just kidding!
I loved Katelin's smile in this picture... another had-to-be-there- moment!!!
Katelin was kidding of course but kinda nice to see someone's eyes that look totally ligit and really funny in that kind of a situation and still get away with it!!! It was awesome!!! I just wish that I could do that cuz then I would freak you all out. (BY the way that is not how you spell because!!! I just did it to see what'd you say!!!)
We did a spur-of-the-moment picture and I loved Katelin's pose!!!
