SNAKE!

A couple months ago i was sitin on the edge of a pond on my family's farm (like a little hillbilly) with my bare feet in the water talkin on the phone. It was a sunny day, perfect weather, nice breeze, and good conversation. As i was very intensely listening to the girl on the other line i felt a slight "brush" across my foot. I casually looked down, thinking it was a piece of, you know, pond grass. But when i looked down at my foot it was not pond grass at all... it was a GIANT SNAKE! I somehow all at once (while siting down) jumped ten feet back from the edge of the pond, yelled SNAKE, and had a mini stroke. I basically started hyperventilating when i landed from the air and freaked out. My poor friend didnt have a clue what hapeened to me, all she heard was AHHHH!!! SNAKE!!!! GASP GASP!!!! OMG!!!! When i finally calmed down enough to breath, i heard HANNAH ARE YOU OKAY?!?! DID YOU GET BIT?!?! WHAT HAPPENED?!?! I slowly studdered (through my gasps) it it it IT TOUCHED MY FOOT! She started laughing, i went inside, and it was all good... until tonight. I went for a run up my 1/2 mile driveway and was heading back, right as it was getting dark. I was listening to music (not paying any attention) when i just happened to glance at the road right as i stomped my foot down probably an inch away from the head of, what else, a snake. But no, this snake meet was worse than the first. The evil little disgusting snake leaped up and snapped at my foot! It hit my shoe, i screamed and ran away only to discover, when i had got a safe distance away from satan that i indeed, had peed my pants. I didnt know whether to laugh, cry, or be horribly ashamed. I pretty much lived the first snake meet over again, but this time with much more laughter! I can find the humor in almost anything, and i promise that theres not a day that goes by that i dont laugh at myself about SOMETHING. I called my friend (same one from the first meet) and DUH she laughed her head off at me! I was not ashamed until i got back to my house and then realized, wow.. this is embarassing! I snuck through my house and went right to the shower. I decided i am never running in the dark again, never getting a pet snake, and NEVER telling my family about this incedent!

Peer Pressure

Two words.. WILL POWER! Something that me, or my friends no longer have when it comes to food and hangin out together. Last sunday my youth pastor at my church decide to DITCH US.. okay he did have to go finish college BUT whatever! So in sunday school we had a "goodbye Julian" semi party instead of speakin bout Jesus. Shame shame on us, yes i know. Well the people who planned the party thing also bought two giant extremely delicious looking ice cream cakes! When they announced that they had those cakes my friend Crystal came up to me and my other friends Meg and Alyssa and stated in a whiny little voice " i don't want no cake." I stated back "I DO!" and she immediately followed with " ME TOO I'LL COME WITH YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" (while grabbing onto my dress!) WOW... someone gave into the pressure! Then she not only got TWO pieces of cake.. but finished them BOTH before me, Meg AND Alyssa! We laughed so hard at her but then realized that we are all the same. We wont cave on stuff like CAKE or COOKIES or ICE CREAM unless someone else does. If one of us goes down.. we ALL go down! It just goes to prove that a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link!
