I don't know? :/

I hate the weather right now...I want to go smack mother nature and tell her to make it stop raining....I HATE IT!!!!! It's like an on again off again gross drizzle. It's dark and depressing and cold, it makes me tired....Gotta love Ohio!!!! NOT REALLY! :)......Sorry I got carried away...but it's gross (it's not like a cool thunderstorm) plus I have school tommorrow (did I mention I don't really like school....what kid does?). Anyway Septemeber is over and I'm 14 (my birthday was on the 15th)YAY!!! (-: Well that's all....pray for sunshine and no school. ;)

School

This Thursday was the first day of school for me and I can't believe I'm in eighth grade. I don't really know what to say about all this and I'll be really happy but really sad when I move on to high school. But I'm going to be busy with the start of the year and all things going on. I will continue to blog so keep posted.

Stupid Mistake

Dear world,
I just realized I never made a formal introduction. I'm sure that would be very helpful so you could under stand what I'm talking about. Hi! I'm Olivia...I hate bios so let's just say I was born on September 15 at 6:30pm on a Monday thirteen years ago. (I'm a very stereotypical Virgo BTW) My favorite color is purple, I live in my own little world, I'm always talking to myself , I love animals (I have 15 pets), I write stories and poems, I can sing, I'm probably the laziest person you'll ever meet (selectively hard working which is never often) and I love thunderstorms but hate tornado's. Yup that's just me at a glance.

First Race

If you didn't already hear from my mom on facebook I just ran my first Cross Country race. I ran a 2 mile course with a huge hill at the end but it was ok. When the race first started I was absolutely terrified, my nerves got to me and the I started hyperventilating a little so I had slow my breathing down. It was really hot and I had to walk a little until I settled into a rhythm but my time was 11mins and 45 secs for the first mile. The second mile was really tough because we had to run up a HUGE hill (it's quite intimidating) but running down it was really fun. The last stretch of the race was through some trees and Adrienne came running to me screaming "Come on Liv I'll run with you!!" so she ran with me untill I got to the last 50 yards. Honestly I tried to sprint to the finish ( I'm a very good sprinter) but I was really tired and in a little pain ( ankles and feet were killing me) My complete time was 23:55 I came in 2nd to last place but I'm super proud of myself!!!!

Here I am crossing the finish line!

Pie for breakfast!!!!

I know I haven't blogged in a long time so here's my first post since like forever. Adrienne (my sister) made this amazing pie last night. We went over to Benders Farm (the farm by my house) and got peaches. Adrienne then proceeded to make the pie and didn't let anyone have any for dessert (I know she's mean). But we had some for breakfast and it was the most amzing pie she's ever made!!!!! Adrienne is in a baking mood and she wants to make more pies....my mom probably won't let her.

Here I am eating her awesome pie!



2nd post: Summer Reading

Hello world,
I'm sooo tired. But who cares because I got through three and a half books on our drive home and I let my sister read my Kindle ( which has a new book on it...not including the one my sister is reading) Anyway I'm supposed to be doing summer reading for English (it doesn't matter what I read as long as it's been approved by my parents) but I have to read one book for each genre listed below (which I could read during the school year if I don't finish the ten books)
Realistic Fiction
Non-Fiction
Historical Fiction
Sci-fi/Fantasy
Mystery/suspense
Drama
Poetry
Folklore
Autobiography/Biography
Book of choice
Here's my problem all the I've read so far are realistic fiction (it's my favorite genre) but if anyone would give me suggestions I would be sooo happy!!!!

Picture Post

This is me with my horse Apollo posing for our family Christmas card. It was freezing that day but Apollo was more interested in something else.

Summer 2011: June through July 1st post

June:Summer  has been extremely busy. My school schedule was completely blown off for horses, cross country running and vacations. After miserably waiting for school to end and the weather to get better I was ready for the best summer ever!!!! Cross country started in June and I quickly found out that I was out of shape!!(luckily with help I can now run a mile in 9mins 49 secs).  I started riding my horses and doing barn chores almost all the time. June quickly blew by with parties, sleepovers, horses, track and hanging out with family and friends.
July: So far this has been the best July ever! We got to spend the fourth of July with our awesome friends in Seward,NE (it's Nebraska's fourth of July city) For all of you out there who think Nebraska is lame I think you need to see a specialist.(of course you've probably never been there or Ohio so you can't compare!) Anyway we spent almost every night staying up late and having fun (I'll post a more details later) Well...we're leaving tomorrow and I'm really sad.
