What do you do when life gives you lemons? Easy, you make lemonade. Well let me tell you, like most things in life, that is a heck of a lot easier to say than to do. What do you do when your family moves you across the world? Away from the place you have called home your whole life. Away from your best friend that you have known since the day you were born, and love him like he is your own brother? Splitting your family in half and leaving your older brother and sister behind? What do you do? You cry. A lot. But then you get half way across the world, and honestly, its not half bad. Okay so I knew that it couldn't be absolutely terrible, since we are doing this for God. And what if you meet this incredible girl from Florida. My new best friend. What if you hate to go a day without talking to her and gushing like a little girl about all our inside jokes, and the cute guy next door? But what if, two years later, you have to do it all over again? What if your only a 15 year old girl with enough stress just being a teenager, without my body trying to release it in other ways like grinding my teeth at night or loosing all my hair? What do you do then? Take it from me. Its not easy.

Beautiful Ice Skating...


So today me and my family decided to go ice skating. We arrive at the rank and not to our surprise, its beautiful. Trees with lights wrapped all around them and couples holding hands all lovey dovey. I'm skating around with a friend of mine, that we oddly saw there, and I turn without looking. This very tall guy, at the age of about 21, in a brown jacket with a fur collar is coming right at me. He grabs me so that we both don't fall and we go spinning. I'm clutching onto his clothes with all my strength trying not to fall. After about seven seconds the moment was over. Beautiful right? Try again. My friends mom reexplains the whole dance and apparently I was screaming and he threw me off as soon as we were both secure and not falling down, and went back to holding hands with his date. Not quite the romance every girl dreams about... but hey, its the only story I've got to tell so there you go :)
