Stripes

Dear Diary,
GUESS WHAT!? our duck just had 10 adorable ducklings! they are so cute! remind me to put a picture up for you to see how cute they are! our first sign of spring!

Well during these last couple of weeks my days change with out me planning on them to do so. this morning I woke up with my Dad telling me to get my resume together and get ready to go because my Nana was going to take me and my sisters for job hunting. Job hunting is I have discovered way harder then any other hunting by the way. Like hunting deer would be easy cause there is deer all over the place! but here in Vic people are stubborn and make it harder to get a job. Anyway! so then I find myself in the car with my Nana and my cousin/sister Shae. and by the end of that 2 hours Shae did awesome! but by the time I was done... I had no such luck. I took my resume to a multiple of places but turns out they don't hire 14 year old's just 15 and up. after that I gave up and stopped going from store to store. I was pretty discouraged. so I will just have to see what happens! if nothing then I am not going to EFY this year.

on that sour note...
Another part of amazing news is that tomorrow (Tuesday) we, as in the all the Home schoolers are going to Utah for a TGED conference! (Thomas Jefferson Education) and after the conference there will be a family ball! and we will also be staying in a hotel! could this be a dream? hope not!

So yes that's my stripes! I have good things that happen all the time! but there is always something bad that follows after words. Luckily another good thing comes back up! And so on and so forth.

Uganda Africa service project.

Dear Diary,
HELLO! so I don't know if you know... but I am in a group of girls that have been raising money, clothes, and school supplies for the girls, boys and adults in Uganda Africa. pretty cool huh?
so the people in this group is me, Elsie Orrego, Emma Holmes, Savannah Holmes, Jenaya Thomson, Rachel Sacket, Ellen Watters, and Megan Watters.

So the last project that came up for us was just that- collect girls and boys clothes for the girls and boys in Uganda! The hard part for the boys was that I live in a family full of girls so I had to ask friends that had extra boy clothes to give away. and the problem with the girls clothes was that girls in Uganda are not allowed to wear pants so we had to only pack pants for them. but in the end I found just the things! and it was so great to know that I am sending the things to the right place.

service projects are always coming around for me! like reading to little kids in the library or packing clothes for Russia for a YW (Young Women's) activity, even making money for from candy bags on Valentines day for Africa's Widows and orphans. because service is what life is all about.
