Man, I love summer!
Summer: the season of the year when young girls (like myself) can experience stampedes, parades, natural tanning, and attempt landing some hot guys.
All right, that may not be what it says in the dictionary, but that's my definition! On Wednesday we got up at 5:30 to get to the Calgary Stampede, just to insure we would get there in time for the free entry on Kids Day. Normally it only takes 1 1/2 hours to get to Calgary, but since everyone (and I do mean everyone, more or less) wanted the free entry, we were in traffic for 2 1/2 hours!!!!!!!! My parents have decided that is the last time we do Kid's Day!!!!
Other than that, we had a lot of fun, going to the Superdogz, the Rodeo X, and then the Bell Pavilion for the rodeo and chuckwagon coverage that airs on TV... hey, did anyone see me? Green tank top, near the back? On Wednesday night? Oh well, I WAS ON TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (And this ain't the first time either! I'm famous! Must be my TV looks.... The camera loves me! And no comments about "Canada's Most Wanted", I want my freedom for a few more years!)
We didn't get back til after midnight, which was bad in this situation, cuz we had to get up again at 6 to go to High River, and then when we got back we had friends over til 11, and I haven't recoverd yet, sooooo tired must sleep *yawn*
Anyways, today 3Bumps had their annual parade day, which I think is the best, how many other parades do you know of that throw tons of candy to everyone? I think even my dad got some! Goes to show ya, your never too old for candy-throwing parades!
By the way Paula... I mean 'Jack Sparrow's girlfriend'.... loved the outfit!
Terror #1 was on a float with the U12 soccer team, since they won provincial gold, and will now be heading to the Alberta Cup (Or is it the City Divisionals? Dave seems to think there is no Alberta Cup, weird), so I was in charge of rounding up loot for him, that was cool. (until the lacrosse team went by, there are people that I really don't get along with on the team, and they were all in the parade. If I hear 1 word about me acting like a 10 year old from Micah next year I'm gonna skin him) Kinda surprised that the karate club didn't have a float, would have liked to have been on it, but oh well, maybe next year.
Haven't gotten around to the cute guys yet, although there were a couple of very cute guys at Stampede... they were just a little old for me... maybe in their early 20's.... bummer, but they were cute. The military had brought a bunch of guns and tanks with them for their exhibit this year, Dad was checking out some of them, and he was mentioning that no guy would come on the property if word got out he had one of those, very happy he doesn't!
Only the 15th of July, and I've already gotten some of my summer agenda done. Yay! Now, it's a bummer I can't do camp this year (grr), but I can hang out with Cupgirl and Tina before they leave, hang out with Beca, Becky, and Jordan after they leave, maybe get in time with Jewel, Jenny and Erin, gotta chill with Devon and Tom some.... lol!

World Cup!!!!
After 2 hours of actual play, extra time, and watching a dramatic shoot-out (Gah, I hate those!!!), I am pleased to say THE WORLD CUP IS ITALY'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!! *ahem* It wasn't an easy win though, do the extra time and shoot-out tell ya anything?!
It started with one of the French players (or was he Italian? No, I think it was a French guy) getting injured in the first minute (how is that possible?) of the game, and he wasn't the only one who went off on account of injury. There were numerous leg injuries, hamstrings, shoulder injuries, and at least one head-blow, not to mention a ton of windings and a head-butt in the chest that recieved a red card for a French player. (Zidane, you twit...)
And they wonder why I don't play soccer... I think that one ball I took on the nose in Grade 2 had something to do with it! To this day I still can't head a ball at all! Anyways, back to the World Cup.
France scored within the first 5 minutes, then Italy got a point in the first 11. And it stayed like that all the way through the rest of the actual game time and the added 30 minutes, if you don't count the Italian goal that was called for an offside, dangit *grrr*
THEN we got into the shoot-out.
Have I mentioned I HATE shootouts?!?! This was the only 'good' one (by 'good' I mean that my favorite team won the game) that I had seen the entire World Cup month, Italy winning by a total score of 6-4. Yay!
Now I get to rub it in to Spoke and Paula! Hehe! Although, ya gotta agree, France was really good, they had to be to beat Brazil!
So Annacond and I didn't get to see Argentina and Brazil play, but we still got to watch a pretty good game, despite the fact it was played by lesser teams (no offense meant to any die-hard Italy or France fans)
Ironicaly, Terror #1 was playing his provincials this weekend, word comes from Dad that his team won both matches today. So now in a couple of weeks they go for the Alberta Cup, possibly playing my cousin's team. That I would like to watch!
Anyways...... GO ITALY!!!!! (until next world cup then.....
GO ENGLAND GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and if they go out, then
GO ARGENTINA!!!!!!!!!
and if they go out to, then
GO BRAZIL!!!!
All in all, quite happy with the way this World Cup turned out, yay!! Go Italy!!!!

Double time!
Yes, I know 2 posts in one is really weird, but I'm too lazy to make two seperate posts, and I have two subjects to post about, so....
PART ONE: SCHOOL'S OUT!!!!!!!
Yippee!!!! Out of school for the summer! And next year, High School!!! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!! It's annoying, Tina and 'Cupgirl' are both moving away, so that's annoying, but J and Becky the (non blogger) are staying, and I think Beca (the blogger) might be coming, so that's good.
The exams I could have done without, including the grade 9 provincials, but oh well, I did good. However........... I MISSED HONOUR ROLE BY A STINKIN' .75%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *ahem* Guess I'll get it next year though.
Cupgirl, Becky, J, and myself were planning to water-balloon Mike for some rumours that he said earlier this year, and I was planning on getting Cupgirl back for soem pretty painful burns, but the girls were genious enough to drop the balloons, and the two that I chucked at Cupgirl both bounced off her, got so mad!! Gotta get Cupgirl back before she moves, guess I'll get Mike next year.
Since it was exams, the teachers let us off with the dress code (that being no short shorts, tank tops, or shredded jeans), and I got away with my fav. outfits. Some other people, on the other hand........ Tom, bright orange Hawiian shorts and highlighter-yellow T-shirt do not go together at all!!!!! Esp on you! Orange is SO not your colour. (Meh, bright orange shorts don't go with anything! Tsk-tsk)
Oh yeah, can't forget to mention Calaway Park on Wednesday. Roller coasters.... haha!!
PART TWO: NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Before I get to the body of Part 2, let us have a moment of silence for the soccer teams of England and Argentina.....
I now will badness to the Portuguese and German soccer teams, they took out my two favs!!!!! *growl* NO soccer game should end in a shoot-out, for Pete's sake, it's a team sport!!! Argh!!!
This leaves me with a problem: Do I A) cheer for Brazil and risk Spoke's wrath/humiliation by Tom and Dave or B) find a new team to cheer for? I mean, I REFUSE to cheer for the States, call me racist all you please, BUT....... I guess I'll cheer for Italy now, just a random team that I picked out of the blue.... As long as Brazil doesn't win this time, let's throw in some variety!!!
And so summer break begins. Oh joy.
