Going Away Party

Well, today i woke up at 8:15 to go to the fair and open the NOVA Booth! It was pretty slow because it was raining and storming for the first 2 hours, but then it got a little busier. Then i came home at about 4 and then relaxed and got ready for my Going Away Party NOVA had for me at Skate Plaza. It was so much fun! Teri and Madison got me a cake and so much more! I love them to death and don’t know what i will do without them! Poor Rachelle! It took her a while to get used to skating, but she got it! I was so proud of her! We skated and had fun, and yes, a few fell many times! Haha. Then we opened the presents they got for me, which i was not expecting! I loved them and just couldn’t believe how lucky i am to have such thoughtful and amazing people in my life! I will miss them so much and am sure i will come back and visit! It was a great party and night with friends! Tomorrow i am getting up at 8:!5 again to open the booth but will leave at hopefully 2 or 3 because i am having another Going Away Party with some of my theatre friends tomorrow night! I have such amazing people in my life!

2nd Day of the Kootenai County Fair

Today was a good day. I wanted to sleep in till about 12, however i got a phone call at 9 a.m. from someone from the fair. Tried to go back to sleep and then got called again at 9:30 by someone else. Then again at 10 by someone else. So i couldn’t go back to sleep. I got up and then went to the fair at about 3. It is hot there during the day! Stayed there and tried to get people for the agency and then came home at about 10:30 ish. Ate some Chicken Noodle Soup and now going to take a shower and head to bed. I told everyone i was turning my phone off and it wouldn’t be on until noon tomorrow because i wanted to sleep in. However, i am paranoid about someone needing something, so it will be on! We will see how long i get to sleep.

Kootenai County Fair

Well, yesterday i didn't do too much which is why i didn't write anything. I just woke up and relaxed and finished a chapter in the book i have to read for college, Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By In America, and have one more chapter to read along with the evaluation and afterward. It is a very good book and i really like it, i think it is starting to get me back into the mode of liking to read, which i haven't done in a looonnngggg time. So that's good cause i will be reading a lot in college. Today, i woke up at about noon and got ready to go to the Fairgrounds. Tami, Rachelle, Kurt, and I got everything set up for the fair along with Megan and Justin helping. Then at 5, everyone arrived for training. The booth looks amazing and everything is done. If you come by the fair, make sure to stop by the booth and say hi! I have to be there at 9:30 a.m. tomorrow morning, which i am NOT looking forward to, but i have to start getting used to waking up early for college because i have to get up at 7 everyday there pretty much and they are 2 hours ahead so that's like getting up at 5 my time, ahhh! It should be fun though, i can't wait to go! I can't believe i leave in one week exactly on thursday! Oh! Also, Tami, Kurt, Kole, and I went to TCBY's and got some yogurt, which was really good! I got their peanut butter one and it was really good. I have never been there because i thought it was just yogurt and i dont like yogurt, buts actually like ice cream, haha. So i plan on going there a lot now, especially since it's fat free! Well, it was a great day, i am going to go take a shower and go to bed because i have a long day ahead of me tomorrow!

Great Weekend With Best Friend Emily!

Well, today was a great day! I woke up at 10 to go to Church with Emily and Mom. It was a great service and there was a special guest for the Worship Band who was Dave Irish, who was an amazing artist! After the service, Emily went and bought his cd and we listened to it in the car! OH! And i got to see Joanie, who is a lady that went to Louisiana with me after Hurricane Katrina for a Mission Trip. It was very nice to see her before i leave for college because i don’t know when or if i will see her again! So that was a start to a great morning and day! After church, we went to the mall to go shopping at Pacsun and then looked at wedding rings for Emily and I, haha. After that we went to TJ Maxx to see if there were a pair of shoes Emily wanted, ugh, girls and their shoes! They werent there so we then went to Panda Express and got our lunch. After that we went to Blockbuster to rent a movie and we got the movie Changeling, with Angelina Jolie, and went to Super 1 Foods to get ingredients for her mom to make cookies, which are the best cookies ever! So we went back to her house and put the movie in and ate our Panda, which wasn’t the best we have had. The movie was GREAT! Sad ending though, but an amazing movie! After that her mom made some cookies and then after the first dozen was done, we went to Riverstone to go to Buckle and Aeropostle and Zumiez for some more shopping. Then we went to Starbucks and both of our drinks weren’t very good. I got a Double Chocolate Chip Frappacino, but it was too blended and was like all liquid. After that we went back to her house and started cleaning the room when we then started to go down memory lane. Then i came home and watched Miss Universe and i called it that Venezuela would win! Loved her! She had it goin on!!!! Haha, now i am watching Amazing Wedding Cakes and then will go to bed! What a great weekend, work tomorrow to get stuff ready for the fair!

Good Day!

Well, today was a great day! The day started off with Tracy and I looking at Houses and Apartments that Sandy and Jaki could rent when they move up here, which will be in about a week. We are so excited for them to get up here! By the grace of God, Tracy and I found amazing places for them at the first 2 we looked at and knew that it would be between those two. I know that Sandy and Jaki will love it up here! After that, Tracy and I went to Olive Garden, which turned out to be for about 2 hours because Tracy had to leave to go to the office to do a last-minute casting for a movie in Spokane. It was good though. After that, i came home, exhausted, and took about a two hour nap. After i woke up i rode my bike over to Emily's and we hung out for the rest of the night! We hung out at her house and then went to Borders to get the Next To Normal cd, which if you dont know is an AMAZING new musical on Broadway! It was wayyyy too expensive though, so we moved on to Target to get some fun stuff. We got the game Sorry, which we hadnt played since we were kids. Then we went to applebees and got stared down at by some weird lady who looked mad at us. After that we went back to her house and played a few games of Sorry, her mom won one game and Emily wont the other, i didnt win any. :( haha. Then Emily and I played MASH, which was fun. We had a Childhood-Memory night it seems. What a great day! Waking up at 10 so Emily and I can go to Church!

Had to get a blogspot!

Hello everyone,

I actually have another blog at joshuacooper.spaces.live.com, but one of my cousins told me about blogspot and how everyone has one and it is famous. Haha. So i decided to make one! I dont know which one i will keep up more, probably the other one because it is on my desktop, but we will see, so just check up on both! Today was a great day, worked and then went out on the boat with Tami, Kurt, and Tracy. I will miss them so much. I am going to go catch up on some reading on a book called Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By In America. It is a great book and the university i am attending is making all first year students read it, probably because it shows how our lives will be as poor college students, haha. So i will write more tomorrow!
