Hello everybody,

I mean Triplet was great, but the ppl there weren't doing anything.......just sitting there :S but I had a lot of fun!!!!! :) :) I`m really grateful that I had friends here b4 we moved here......I was just thinking about that, I mean it would b awful if I didn't have any friends here 'cept for the ppl in my school........cuz I don't really have friends in my school......u know not like real friends.
But still I REALLY miss my friends in Italy :( :( I wish I could have all my friends in one place and would live with all of them, lol, u know like if my Italian friends would move here 2 Portugal, yeah, like that will ever happen! :( anyway.......
THANK YOU FRIENDS FOR BEING MY FRIENDS! U ARE ALL SO SPECIAL 2 ME! U HAVE NO IDEA! *BIG HUG* :)

field trip, baby sitting, friends and the love of god

mood: happy :)
hello everyone! havent been posting a lot.....sorry
so what has happened in these days? ok, so I went 2 a field trip with my class......2 a modern art museum.......there was some things I liked......but most things where pretty bad! and I didnt have that much fun.......cuz I was alone most of the time.......this will give u the picture (there reflected in 2 mirrors.....that were some of the "art" there):
1st photo: my class 2nd photo: me
lol.....but then I made friends with 2 ppl OUT of my class :D :D :D there is this girl that her parents are Jamaican but she has lived in America her hole life! (I met her cuz there was a meeting in my school with all the students that were not born in Portugal) and then I was having lunch with her (Always at school) at this guy (Portuguese) came up 2 us and started talcking 2 us in English! it was so cool 2 finally make friends in my school!!!! :D theeeeeen Friday I went 2 some little town called.......called.......oh I dont remember something that startes with N! haha anyway, I went there with 3 families (the farmers,the Uhlers and the Lasts there daughter Hilary and her Husband and son) and Jasmin. I baby-sat Eden and Noah (farmers kids) and Malicai (Zack and Hilary`s kid) with Cristian`s help :),we had 2 baby-sit because the adults had meetings about the matrix church, and talcked about a lot of stuff so we baby-sat when those meeting where going on! I had fun! :D :D :D Malicai is so cute!!!!!! :D :D he is adorable! and of course I loved everyone else`s company! :) :) then it was really cool.......I asked Jasmin 2 pray for me, because I have never had any experiences with god......and I`m really missing that! I mean,I`ve known god all my life but I want 2 get 2 know him better, like I said have some experiences with him! so yeah I asked her 2 pray for me (I asked HER cuz she is the one I am most friends with, and felt like I really wanted HER 2 pray for me, I really love her,she is so awesome) and as soon as she started praying (and Cristian was playing the guitar) I burst in tears, I mean I have never cried that much when some1 prayed for me! I was sobbing and my pants where all wet on the knees cuz I was with my face on my knees, and I felt so strange like.....I dont know just like I could not stop crying but it wasnt a bad feeling.....I dont know how 2 explain it.....and then during worship I started crying AND during communion! I just really felt the presence of god there.....even in Malicai playing with the baloon during worship! hehe :) :) it was really nice and I hope I can do that again! :)


P.S. I crashed in a cote rack....LOL! because we were playing a game (me,Cristian and the kids) where some1 would walk in the door and we all had 2 hide and when Eden was coming and about 2 walk in I didnt know where 2 hide so I just ran 2 where the rack was, where a lot of different stuff where 2 and tripped on the bottom of the rack and fell on the floor and the hangers went flying all over the place! it was so funny!!!! I coudnt stop laughing about it! hahaha :P

I learned a few Portuguese words at school, but not much: gost=like, Turma=class then I learned that: "Eu vivi em Italia" means "I lived in italy" and "Eu visitei a......" means "I visited....." then "diga" is "tell me" :D annnnnd what else???? I think thats all! then I know other stuff but I knew those already! anyway I`m going 2 bed cuz its like 22:40 and I have school 2morrow :S I wish I didnt.......I dont wanna get up at 7:00!!!!!!!!! or whatever time I get up........7:00 something.......hehe!!!! so ciao ciao

how I hate having 2 stay in the car for 2 days!!!! 28 hours in the car! GAK!! well I shoudnt complain! my dad had 2 drive all night! anyway, we got here fine, poor Tummy though! he was in the cage all the time! but he did fine, he didnt complain as much as I thought he would.......poor baby!
and now he hast 2 stay up in a room all alone because there are 3 dogs down here! y 3 dogs? cuz were at the farmers place (some friends of ares, cuz some ppl are still cleaning are house, so we cant move in yet, were moving in 2morrow!) and they have a dog, and there is are dog, and THEN yesterday a little puppy dog....(I think he is a puppy, he`s a Jack-russell so he`s small anyway) followed Paula (Mother/Wife Farmer hehehe) here, he is so cute! his name is Soja! he has a dog tag (Were it said his name and his phone number) so we called but there was no1 home so Paula left a messege telling them we found there dog and 2 call back......but this happened yesterday night.....and they didnt call back yet! poor Bingo though (the family`s dog) he is really Jealous!!!!!!!!!!! he attacked Soja 2 times! but Soja is kinda looking for it he keeps running up 2 him! hehe, its so funny how little dogs always bother big dogs!!!!! (Bingo is a BIG dog! but he is soooo sweet! I love him!) haha look at me I just moved in to Portugal and all I talck about is the animals! obviously I`m still sad about it.....but I`m trying really hard to not think about it!I keep thinking this is a vacation and I will be back soon. When we got here yesteday we had 2 unload in the rain!!!!!! it was pouring so hard!!!!! I told my mom I think the weather is reflecting the way I feel...so she said 2 get happy soon......hehe.......but we had help, some friends of ares helped + David and Franco, David is Laura and Carmen`s (2 of my best friends) dad and Franco is there Grandpa, they drove the truck here and 2day are driving back, they were such a blessing! I will miss David 2....he told me he would miss having me at there house every day :') and I told him I would really miss being there every day!!!!!!!!! anyway, Eden and Isaac were keeping my mind busy yesterday night so that I stopped thinking about how sad I was for a wile! Eden is the little girl Farmer! hehe she's 11......I think! I really like her, (I really like kids ;) ) and she is a good friend of Isaac`s! yesterday night they asked me too help them come up with a play they could do! hehe, so I did, and they really liked it.....only I played my part "too well" so instead of wanting Noah (the little boy Farmen, who is 9 or 10) they want me in the play!

Its so cool, last night I slept in the prayer room,and wile I was in that room I started feeling better, I mean I have been crying like every night in these days, and I didnt cry......:) and I prayed that I will not loose my friends and 2 make me feel a little better about living here.....I just....the thing that scares me the most is that something will change in my friend-ship with my friends, like that since I am far away and there always 2ghether, that they will be all better friends and I`ll just be "that friend that lives in portugal..." I dunno....I just hope that doesnt happen!!!!!.....anyway,hugs 2 u all! love u! and thanks u 2 anyone that has been or is praying for me! I really appreciate it! :)

mood: sad sad sad sad!

I cant stop crying......I just got back from spending the night with the girls! they were so sweet! they gave me a belt and some black and white striped socks and some chocolates.....we ate pizza and watched a movie.....than they wanted too go 2 laura and carmens house, I though it would be better if we stayed at my house but they wanted to go there so than they had 2 say bye 2 everyone (my mom my dad and Isaac) so they started crying......and than they started crying for me.....so I started crying.....than we got there and Giuditta went in laura and carmens room, and I wanted to go with her but Carmen kept telling me to wait for her.....so then we all went in the bedroom and Giudy was holding this BIG poster with all of are pictures!!!!!!!!!!!! and they rote a bunch of nice things around them! then they all read me a letter they had wrote! :'( :'( I havent cryed this much in such a long time!!!!!!!!!

mood: sadly-bored

uuuuuuuuaaaaaaaaggggggghhhhh! I`m bored.....its 5:00 pm......and no one is here......cuz one of my friends house flooded......and for some reason......my other friends need 2 wait for her :/ and I asked if I can come there and they said "no! we will be there soon" that was a wile ago tho.......I`M SO BOREDDDDDDD!!!!!!! :( well.....at least were going out 2night 2, cuz if I could only see them in the day I would be pretty bummed!!!!!!!!! since like all the day is gone already! I mean at this point if its because of "the surprise" that there taking so long than I would have preffered no surprise cuz I just want 2 hang out with them as much as possible before we go!!!!!!!!!!! jffjkfdsjsljkfdsskljsdfkljskldfklldsfkldfsklflkdfkldflkkdsfklfkldskldskldsklsdkl

yeaaaaap......ok bye bye

the weather 2day reflects the way I feel

mood: sad......really sad.....

its raining 2day.....and its really cold!!! and it doesnt help the way I feel right now......I really cant belive we are moving 2morrow!!! I will haft 2 say bye 2 all of my italian friends 2day :( :( :( :( :( :( I hate good-byes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( :( my friends should be coming over soon......I know there planning something for 2day cuz they`ve made it pretty obvious....hehe......fist off they were talcking about something the other day and I said what? and they were like "oh nothing!" and carmen smiled at me, than I heard carmen wispering to Giuditta "so when should I give it 2 her? the last day?" and than just now I called Sara and she was like "yeah were going 2 come over but first me and Giudy are meeting at Laura and Carmen's house, than we will all come over," and sara lives right next 2 my house so there would be no reason for her to go all the way to there house first...lol....anyway, hope that whatever the surprise is it cheeres me up a bit!

mood: relieved!

all is good! :) we talcked and she said she was sorry but she would act that way cuz she didnt want 2 think about me leaving cuz she felt so bad about it.

wish I didnt feel this way....

mood: worried!

ok, so there is this friend of mine,right?, and she has been acting really weird lately.......like whenever we talck about me leaving she gets this "I dont care" tone and acts like she doesnt care or anything......and the weirdest thing is that she was the one who seemed saddest about the fact I was leaving in the first place.....:-/ I mean I know she DOES care I`m leaving and stuff but I dont understand y she acts that way now,and its not only that she even kinda ignores me when its all of us 2ghether.........its weird........anyway,I rote her an e-mail telling her how I felt about all this but I know how she gets she probably will start saying "this is so stupid! and not true! I cant believe u think that" and stuff like that.....so I`m hoping she wont act like that and understand how I feel....I mean it might be just an impression of mine anyways cuz I`m really sad about leaving and stuff....I dunno!!!!!! I just hope she doesnt act the way I think she will!!!!! oh well....if she does I`ll just tell her "never-mind it was just and impression then..." but I think it was good I told her how I felt even if maibe she ends up thinking I worry 2much.......

hanging out with my buddyes :)

mood: ok

last night I went out with some of my friends, we walcked around salo` and found a guy a friend of mine likes and asked him if he will go out with her....hehe....cuz she has been bugging us about asking him for a loooooong time, so he said yes, hehe, yey! she will have her first boy-friend (maibe) :) :) :) I cant wait 2 tell her, hehe!

anyway, than me and Sara (one of my friends I was out with) went 2 sleep over at my other friends house,Giuditta,and we watched a movie.......that sucked cuz it made no sense at all! hehe! but oh well, than me and Sara had 2 sleep on the same bed....:-/ it was very uncomfortable!!!!!!! and she kept stealing the blanket from me and pushed me off once....:-/ hehehehe! anyway, it was fun, than in these days I`m going 2 go for dinner at all my best friends house! so that will be cool! :) :) :) I just wish that when I`m with my friends I could enjoy myself more and stop thinking about how much I`m going 2 miss them!!!!!!!!!!! I hate feeling sad! :( :( :( :( :( oh well......u cant controll what ur feeling.......!
