here's my first journal- I can't believe I haven't written one before!  Well, I'm in Virginia Beach, who doesn't love the beach?! Can't submit any art here, unless I draw in MS Paint with a mouse, and I just don't want to take the time to make something look good.  

I just got back from camping- I canoed 8 miles- it was tons of work, and I'm sore now... I also went horseback riding, I really wish I could do that more often.

Man, I can't make myself happy at all right now, I can just forget for a while when I do things that take a lot of brain power- I need to talk to people or something... I really miss all of my friends in Walla Walla- being 3000 miles away from friends for 3/4 of the summer isn't all that great, although I love spending time with family that I only see once a year- well, my aunt here is visiting the week I get back, but that's so she can get 50 states before she turns 50 XD she is staying with us though.  I can't wait to start high school and meet new people... Well, I'm gonna wrap this up, can't wait to be home!
