- M! M! MAP! P! P! PLE! MAP! PLE! DOES NOT SPELL MAPLEWOOD!!! It spells Mapplewood...which is just weird.
- The word "zeitgeist" is nearly as cool as "loquacious"
- There is a Jericho Road concert tonight, and we should so totally go so I can get my hoodie sleeve signed by the fourth guy. YES!!! Jericho Road did a fireside at our girl's camp! WHOOT!
- You can't replace "Spiderman" in the Spiderman song with "Legacy Park." The extra syllable just kills it. And "park" doesn't rhyme with "art"
- When the camp next to you won't shut up, it does not help to yell "SHUT UP!" to the sky.
- When you are in the middle of a half-blanket, half-trampoline mutation, don't think about it. Just say "all" and wave to the birds!
- Everybody loves the river...bring your own life jacket and tube.
- Yell "I'M AWAKE! I'M ALIVE! AND I FEEL GREAT!" every morning. It seriously works.
- (this should be yelled very quickly)Don't mess! Don't mess! Don't mess with the best 'cuz the best don't mess(!) and we are the best from the east to the west! Centennial Park!
- When you get home, just hope your parents had as awesome a homecoming present for you as they did for me...I HAVE A CELL PHONE!!! WHOOT!

Funny story
When Shannah, Yen, Mrs. Baker, and I were waiting for our luggage in the humongous Denver airport, I saw my cousin Wesley, who is 2 days older than me. I had to do a double take and then I realized his whole family was there. I went over to Wesley, who was like 3 feet away, and my aunt saw me, and we had a little family reunion.
Apparently Wesley had told my aunt and uncle on the airplane that he thought he saw me. My aunt and uncle denied it, saying, "no she's not, why would Keilee be here?" It was such a surprise to both of us.
As we were talking, while waiting for our luggage, we found out they were on the same flight we had just gotten off of, and we were also and the same return flight. What a coincidence!
So while we were waiting for our 2 hour delayed flight, my little 4 year old cousin, Bethany, entertained us by being cute.

I made it in Denver! (and had a BLAST!!)
As some of you may, or may not know, Shannah, Yen, Mrs. Baker, and I went to Denver from the 4th to the 6th. We presented at the Japanese American National Museum National Conference about our Topaz projects and the process of putting them together.
We stayed at the Hyatt hotel, where the conference took place. It was the fanciest hotel I have ever seen. Shannah and I shared an awesome room, while Yen and Mrs. Baker had their own rooms. We were on floor 6 out of I think 21. It was fun just going around the hotel.
We had a lunch and dinner banquet on the 5th where we actually used the dining skills we learned at La Caille. At the lunch banquet we had a salad, chicken with rice and string beans, and a super delicious chocolate cake that was SO good. George Takae (Hiro Nakamura's dad on HEROS!) spoke at lunch. At the dinner banquet we had a butternut squash soup, salad, sirloin steak with steamed carrots and broccoli, and apple cobbler. I was so full I seriously thought I was going to throw up.
On the 4th we went to a Rockies game (for those of you who don't know, it's a major league baseball game). It was scary because people were drink beer EVERYWHERE! Everyone was drunk; in fact, there was this really drunk guy in the row in front of us, who fell down 3 or 4 rows and spilled his beer all over a little baby. The guy was so drunk he didn't feel anything. The game was so long, we left before they did the fireworks because we couldn't take it anymore.
Our projects were on display, and they looked insignificant compared to the projects done by 7th and 8th graders right next to ours. My project didn't have a title because it was lost in travel, which sucks.
On our return flight, it was delayed almost 2 hours because of thunder storms, so we got home at 10:30pm instead of 8:30pm. The Denver airport is HUGE compared to the S.L.C. airport, so it was too bad waiting 2 hours there.
I can't get any pictures to load, so sorry. Maybe I can email them to you if you want them. Just let me know and we'll try.

Why has nobody posted anything for several days? It's bothering me!!! So I'm posting! Yay!
Tomorrow is going to be crazy. I get to wake up early to finish packing so I can be at a store trying on a bridesmaid dress at 11, and then at the church, dressed for hiking at 12. I then have to spend several hours hiking a completely uphill, 2 1/2 mile trail, get there, try to make dinner with a mess kit I've never used, try to put up a tent I've never used, and try to get to sleep with hard ground and only one small pillow. And I won't even know anybody, because Aly is at a family reunion!
Sorry to complain. I don't think it will be THAT bad...So what are you guys doing?

Playlist
um, what happened to our awesome music playlist? It occurred to me that it has mysteriously gone missing.
I don't think so Shannah
You need to read Hillary's comment on Shannah's post yesterday, because it is so true and I agree with it completely. Also, remember what Bella told Jacob in "New Moon" when they were pointing out that Jacob is younger than Bella. Bella told him that in maturity years, she's like 12 years older. It would be the same with Jamie, you'd be way too mature for him. Ian would be if not as mature as us, then more mature.
Even though Ian did want to kill Wanda, he had sympathy. He changed himself for her, what can be better than that? She changed him by being herself. And about Aly seeing only his outside appearance, she was just stating one of his many good qualities. He has many more that are inside of him (like his loving nature for Wanda no matter what body she's in) that are just as beautiful as his eyes.
Anyway, that's my opinion.

OMGSH!
Guys. What about my second reason? Ian tried to kill Melanie at first. Jamie was totally excepting of her. How would you like to marry a guy who attempted to murder you because of who you are? I would want a guy who loves me for who I am the first time we met. Also, what's up with the eyes. Aly, read First Samuel 16:7. Man looketh on the outward appearence but the lord looketh on the heart. Who cares about how he looks? I want my guy to be compassionate, caring, and smart. Ian was none of those for a very long time! So Hah!

It is freaking hot here!!!!
My air conditioner isnt working in my house.
A repair guy came out today, and he couldn't fix it.
Our air conditioner is out of date(i could have told him that..) and electricity is not getting to it as much as it should.
So we have three fans going in the house (yes only three) and everyone here is about dead.
(everyone say "awww, poor Misty and her family!! I wish I could help them!!")
and i reply: I know, I know. But don't worry! Another person is coming out tomorrow to see if he can figure it out!!
You could also all offer for me to come stay the night at your house... I'll just pick my favorite :)
