Wow, I still didn't put up pictures from my camping trip on here. Oops. Oh well, I'll put in pictures from other people's cameras and then you'll think they're cool and awesome (: Hahaha.

I have some cool news to report. Today I was elected Vice President for the Fellowship Club at school (: I'm so excited! I hope I do everything okay. I'll work hard! Hahaha. The club is pretty small, and it reminds me of SCAC. Hopefully it'll grow some more and we can get more people to learn about God (: Yayyy. So join if you go to Bolsa, got it?

I cut my hair too. It's pretty short. Well, Noel didn't see much of a difference. Hahaha. I don't think it looks that great (the lady ALWAYS cuts my bangs too short) but it'll grow back (: I've got that Pantene 'Beautiful Lengths' conditioner that will hopefully help my hair to grow. Hahaha. Yay Hair!
I think I'm starting to feel a bit more chipper than I usually am. Looking back at my other entries, I noticed that I felt kind of blue a lot of the time :O I think this year was one of those years where I could 'mature'? Hahaha. It felt like I went through a lot of growing pains this year, but I'm getting back on my feet and feeling a little bit happier every day. I think reading the Bible with Sam is helping me out a lot. I'm reading Pslams with him, and they really focus on giving God your everything. I hope I can be that kind of person (: I want to depend on God for EVERYTHING, from my triumphs to my failures; my insecurities and my hopes, my friends and family... I know I can depend on him; it's just a matter of learning how to do it, I guess.

I don't know if I should join cross-country or track next year. My coach is sort of being a jerk. I was thinking of joining only cross-country next year and that's that. I don't want to do anything else. I don't know why, but I think I'd like it better if I ran on my own. I feel too competitive if I run with someone else. I feel mean. I just want to be able to motivate myself and make my mindset SUPER POSITIVE! 'I can do it!' Hahaha.
Well, that's it for me. Should I make a Twitter thing? :O Hmmm.

I'm back from Casper's, and I'm so tired and grouchy. I just gave my dad attitude, and I feel kind of bad.

Dad: Phoebe, your stuff's in front of your room.
Phoebe: I know.
Dad: Put it away, okay?
Phoebe: Okay.
Dad: Make sure you put it away.
Phoebe: I know.
Dad: Don't leave it out there.
Phoebe: I KNOOOWWWW!
Dad: Put it away.
Phoebe: Fine.

I should have been more patient, but come on. He kept on repeating himself even after I got it the first time. I'm not deaf; just grouchy,

Well, I'm also kind of pooped. I'll write more about the trip later. It was definitely fun and chill, and I got some good pictures. There aren't a lot, but I'll borrow some from the other members in WAC :) The food was great, the hikes were fun, and the games were HILARIOUS. I even learned some Vietnamese ;)

I'm going to go take a nap, but before that I'll put my stuff away. I'll write more later!

xoxo, phoebe

I know it's late (Already 12 in the morning!), but I just wanted to get a quick entry in before I go to bed :)

Well, Sam and I have this new system going. We call each other every night and read the Bible! We're currently reading Psalms, and I think my favorite one so far is Psalm 15:

Lord, who may dwell in your sanctuary?
Who may live on your holy hill?
He whose walk is blameless
and who does what is righteous
who speaks the truth from his heart
and has no slander on his tongue,
who does his neighbor no wrong
and casts no slur on his fellowman,
who despises a vile man
but honors those who fear the Lord,
who keeps his oath
even when it hurts,
who lends his money without usury
and does not accept a bribe against the
innocent.
He who does these things
will never be shaken.

This is the kind of person I want to be :) The Bible reading thing is going okay, but I think I need to spend more time MEDITATING on it instead of just reading it. Hopefully I may become this kind of person after years and years of practice, and I know God will help me :) Hahaha.

Tomorrow (or today, I should say) I'm leaving for Casper's Wilderness Park! It's one of the best trips of the year for those who are in WAC, and I'll be sure to take as many pictures as possible and post the best ones on here :) You'll be able to get in on all the fun!

Oh, and attention to all! Luau will be cancelled if we don't have enough ticket sales by Wednesday ): So even if you're on the honor roll thing, go to the bookstore and get them! We need to get 200 tickets sold and we're not even close! Luau is the best dance of the year and it would really suck to see it get cancelled ):

Well, that's all I'm going to type up for now. I am so pooped, and I still need to get a few things ready for the trip. Good night, sweet dreams :)

Yum, food :) I like food. Hahaha. Well, today I had lots of fun! Because today was Cathy's birthday, we all went out to Yogurtland for yogurt! Pastor Peter bought it for us :) He's so nice, and sometimes I feel bad because he's always paying for our stuff. Thanks so much Pastor Peter :)Wow, I already used three smiley faces, hahaha.

Well, this morning I went to church and Sam and I led praise as usual. I think we picked too many songs though, because Daniel seemed tired :P Hahaha, sorry Daniel! Let's see, after that was Pastor Peter's sermon. He made us write down some answers to some questions that were very interesting. Then we ate church food which was pretty good but I didn't finish all of it. Isn't that weird? Usually I finish it all, but I guess I didn't feel like it today. Then we went to Yogurtland! I definitely finished all of that, hahaha. It was sooo good! On the way to Yogurtland, everyone in Pastor Peter's car (Noel, Daniel, Joseph, Me, Song, and Alfred) played ABCD! Noel hits so hard! >____< Hahaha, my hand was so red! Then when we were done I fell asleep because I went into a yogurt coma. Hahaha. It was so much fun! But then I had to go home...and Song and Noel came with me!

We hung out, read some magazines, did some homework (which I'm still finishing now), went on Myspace, and it was cool. Noel left early, but Song stayed until 7, and we had a fun time :) I'm so glad that I'm getting to know Song better! Hahaha.

Today was a happy day! I like happy days. Hopefully God will bless me with more to come. I want to read His Word more, pray to Him more, and rely on Him with my whole heart. Yay! :) Hahahaha. Okay then, well I'm going to go. I'll write on here soon!

xoxo, phoebe

Wheee, I love Taylor Swift! She's my role model :)

Yay! I finally got the video on here! Hahaha. Now you don't have to copy and paste and stufff. You can just watch it on here! :)

So I went to church yesterday and it was so much fun! I love ' What Were You Thinking? ' ! It's the best game ever. Thank you to Pastor Peter for introducing the SCAC Youth Group to that game :) Next time I will DOMINATE. Hahaha.

Mmm, next week I'm going camping with WAC. We're going to Casper's in San Juan Capistrano, and hopefully it'll be a lot of fun. I'll try my best to stay safe and take really good pictures so you guys can see all the fun I had :) It'll be a blast!
Then the Friday after next I'm going to the luau at my school. Sam's coming to, so we're gonna do our famous 'sam&phoebeee ' dance. If you're going, you can see it. All the boys and girls love our dance ;) fosho! I'll take pictures then too.

These last few weeks of school will definitely keep me busy. Now I know what college I want to go too. It'll be hard, but I'll study hard, get good grades, and stay positive! I'm going to see if I can get into UC Berkely, but if I can't, then my next choices are UCLA and UCSD! ♥ Wish me luck!

Well, that's all I'm going to say for now.

I took the AP world test today. It wasn't as bad as I feared. Hahaha. I freaked myself out. I'm not sure how I did, but hopefully I did okay. Hahaha. I was supposed to meet up with a friend today during lunch, but the stupid AP testing cut in at lunch time, so by the time I got to my locker he was gone :( What a bummer. Hopefully he's not mad or anything. I'll make it up to him. Hahahaha. Here's the ling to a song by Taylor Swift. I like her music so much, and this video is very cute! ♥ It's called "You Belong With Me." Sorry I couldn't put the video on here; I don't know why it's not working :( Well, watch it anyway! It's super cute :)

I'm still feeling kind of blue ): It's very weird. I don't usually feel sad, but I guess today's an exception. Tomorrow's the Fellowship Club meeting, so maybe I'll feel a little bit better if I pray and read the Bible :) yayyyy. Hopefully the blue will turn to yellow! I'll try my best to be happy!

xoxo, phoebe

Mmm, I'm feeling so icky. I never realized what a brat I can be. My mom, dad, and brother probably get REALLY sick of me because I've always been so grumpy at home lately. I'm always like, GAHH! LEAVE ME ALONE! Well, at least I could reflect on myself and not make excuses. Now's the time to change. I want to change. Yes I do :)

Yesterday I went to the Fellowship Club meeting at our school. I remember wanting to join last year, but when I went in the room it was kind of still. Nothing was really happening. So after five minutes of waiting I just left. But yesterday Elaine asked me to go with her, and I did. I felt shy and awkward throughout the whole meeting, but it's nice to know that there's a place to talk about my faith. The club is pretty small, but it wasn't too unexpected. I got to listen to a lot of people talk about why they were a part of the club, and share a little bit of their history, and it was pretty moving. I don't know why, but even though it was my first time there, I felt secure enough to share with others. Too bad there wasn't enough time. It was definitely nice though. I think that maybe this club will help me to grow closer to God along with the Word, prayer, and help from my friends :) Besides, the advisor (Mr. Fry) seems like a very intelligent person, and hopefully I can get a lot of guidance from him.

Tomorrow's the Finals for track. I'm not running of course; I didn't even make it to Prelims! But I'll be helping out, and hopefully our track team can do its best! Go Bolsa! :)

It seems like a lot of people I know are having guy problems :( It sucks big-time. But hopefully we won't have to worry about guys too much and we can just worry about other things that are a higher priority. I need to focus more on God, I know that much. Please pray for me, or help me, so that I can become a better person! :)

Well, that's pretty much all I'm going to write. I don't think I should even be up now. I've got a lot of things to do tomorow, and I want to get them done! :)

Mmm, I've been feeling more blue these days. It seems as if I'm making more mistakes and ever, and it really bums me out. I don't know, I think I'm just being too emotional. That's what happens to girls, you know? But hopefully I can continue to stay positive and gain some wisdom. I am such an idiot sometimes.

I'm REALLY sorry Kenny! ):
