This blog is purely about my realization of something... I have the best friends in the world!
(And please, don't do that annoying, "Uh-uh! I have the best friends in the world!" 'cause you just don't, ok?! How can I prove that I have the best friends in the world? I don't have to prove anything to you... you're just sitting in front of a computer screen reading a blog, obviously you don't have that awesome of friends because you're not doing anything with them!)
It has been a long week for me, with video filming, a spanish report, and the musicale, but I didn't want to neglect a thought I had on Tuesday evening after I left Esther's house. So, God has brought me to a wonderful school and church where I have so many opportunities for leadership and growth! Now, I love all of my teachers and pastors and I get to serve on a student council and be captain in two different sports, but I think the most special part of all that is the friendships the Lord has given to me.

Although most of us endure extended periods of teasing and mocking, we
really do love each other.
All of my buddies that fateful day were concerned about me and encouraging me to feel better by laughing with me about the absurdity of the situation. We came up with quite a few awesome quotes! They didn't leave me to fend for myself, they were constantly checking up on me before and after. And, yes, the title is exactly what happened, and, yes, I'm embarassed about it, but the whole internet world can know all because I want to thank God for my brothers and sisters! True, it was a semi-comical event, but hey, it was still disgusting and my friends were faithful even then! You'd never guess it from the banquet promo video, would you? Nope, and we had quite the adventure that day from cave-like parking garages that threatened to rip off the antenna to cell phone directions to pouring rain to gorgeous chandiliers to staying up 'til 3 in the morning. What a day... what a day... Banquet will be so stinkin' awesome! (And I mean this 100% truthfully:) It will be the best one yet!
So, to all of my friends, especially those who went to Seattle... I love you guys! I can't wait for more memories together all the way up to praising God for eternity in heaven. (Yessss! No more sickness!) You always are such an encouragment! I love going through life with you by my side during the hilarious and hard times!
As a side note: don't wear a fancy dress when you don't feel good- it's dry clean only for a reason :D (Wow... gross and funny... I love it!)

Well that must have been beautiful. I'll remember the fancy dress thing.
Natalie, I finally felt well enough to read your blog! :) All I can say is GOOD TIMES! And I LOVE YOU! I think I will remember that day FOREVER! And not just because you puked, but because of all the good times! :) Can't wait for more of those! Love you!
Oh and I have the BEST friends...
