You must not leave!!!!

Fr. Todds' car decorated

     "I can't believe you're leaving!!!!!" That's what I was saying practically all day yesterday. The best Priest in the history of awesome Priests is leaving us!!!! Yesterday was his going away party. I made him a friendship bracelet and a poster with us as stickpeople (I do that all the time and give them to our youth minister :)) My friend Amy and a couple other teens from our youth group (including me) sang three songs for him as a slideshow was going. As soon as we finished the last song, we all went outside to do something amazingly awesome: decorate Fr. Todds' (the Priest) car!!! We met up with a few other teens and Jill (our youth mister who is also AWESOME) and proceeded to get the supplies. We had lime green window markers, TONS of sticky notes (lots of shapes too =P) and, the classic, plastic wrap :D We did it so good!! :D And, of course, we added a unicorn horn at the front of his car :D (Wrapped in aluminun foil and held on with sticky notes, of course =P). Then I drew a picture of Gilly in the side window. You see, Gilly is kind of a joke with us, he calls Jill Gilly, and we'll randomly look at each other and say, 'Gilly???'. I took lots of pictures :D (see above :)) By the time he came out to his car, nearly everyone had left. And this is the evil part: someone had already told him!!!! Terrible, right??!? Hahaha but he was still (I think) surprised. Then he told us to take it off. He would've gotten into a wreck if we hadn't :D And now I'm sad. Unbelievably sad. I will miss him SOOOO MUCH!!!! Everybody loves him. He's so funny!!!! Well, if I dwell on this and keep writing about my sadness, I will start to cry. So for now, I will say goodbye.

     'Til next time!!

Tip #1: don't cry at night

   I would like the dedicate this post to the amazing Dr. Carson Beckett, who so valiantly gave up his life for someone elses. You will always be in our hearts, and we will forever remember your heroics.

Doctor Carson Beckett in Stargate Atlantis

     My family and I were watching the whole Stargate SG-1 series, and when it ended, naturally we went on to watch Stargate Atlantis. We have now been watching SGA for months, and are well into season 3. Last night, we settled down to watch it. The first two episodes were great, and my brother turned on another. It started out hilarious, we were laughing nearly the whole time: and then the explosion happened. The character Dr. Carson Beckett, being the valiant doctor he is, rushed right in and began to operate on one of the people who had been hurt. Now the explosion happened because one of the people had developed an explosive tumor. The guy Carson was working on had one too. They radioed him to tell him, but he wouldn't leave. So brave! Eventually he was able to remove it, but just as he had handed it to the guy who was going to contain it and turned around, the tumor exploded. HE DIED!!! I was so shocked, and horrified, and sad!! I cried so hard. I've never cried as much as I did last night. Not even when the 10th Doctor died on Doctor Who, and if you know me, you know that's big. It took me forever to calm down, and finally I was able to get to sleep. The next morning, I awoke to my alarm clock. I set it to snooze twice, then submitted to my fate and dragged myself out of bed. squinting at the bright light, I looked in the mirror. My eyes were all puffed up. I looked horrible. I grabbed an ice cube and paper towel, and held it to my eyes. Then Applied my makeup. It majorly reduced the puffyness, but it was still visible. My eyes still feel all weird, but at least the puffyness it gone!!! So the moral of the story is, don't cry at night, especially if you have to volunteer at the library the next day =P

 P.S. I LOVE Carson Beckett!!! And his amazing accent..... :D
