long time no see

HI FAMILY(in Amanda voice)...so it's been a while...and i'm bored between classes so i thought i would update you all on my life...

recent accomplishments/changes in my life:
-switched to a new deodorant
-heard my nephew say "ben" for the first time..i couldn't help but smile
-i bought a hat
-stayed up all night one night working on a psychology project, which a made a 98 on
-i bought 100 popsicles
-i have decided to grow my hair back out...i think
-i saved a bunch of money by switching to Geico
-i have recently decided that i would like to be a firefighter

i have three weeks of school left and i can't wait for them to go by...i'm almost tired of school all together..this is where this new fondness of being a firefighter came into play. i think i would be a good thing to consider making a career out of..good pay..good benefits..excitement..what else can you ask for

i have recently heard my aunt lori has gone skydiving...never in a million years would i have guessed she'd go before i would..much less go at all..this is a big accomplishment for the woodruff kids i must say

i am thinking it is time for another mass email amongst our family..i am getting bored in booneville and i need something to laugh at besides the views/opinions/pessimistic ways of people here. i think it is pitiful how people in booneville jump to conclusions..as soon as the first sign of trouble shows..it's all over..even with something as simple as a baseketball/football/baseball game...i can be sitting on the couch with my dad and debra and as soon as one team jumps out and has a big league..it's automatically over to debra..dad is a little different..he knows how things work and believes that some unlikely things can happen..but her..

speaking of ole pop...i saw the other day how much he and i looked alike when he was younger..it was very odd..he got out one of his ole yearbooks to show me somebody or something..then got started looking at his basketball picture and said "yea we kinda look alike here"..his senior basketball picture and my 8th/9th grade pictures (back when i was little thinner)...look exactly alike..

well i guess i'm going to get off here and go to football practice...so much fun..

peace
