5 points to whoever guess what movie I'm watching! No clue what you're gonna do with those points, but...yeah....
So, about my writing...I've finished my first edit of Adventure of a Lifetime!!! It's about a girl who goes back to her hometown, and discovers that it's been destroyed, and the lone survivor is a psychopath who says a dragon was the one who destroyed it.... Well, he's not really a psychopath, and yes, it was really destroyed by a dragon.
I shall now tell you about the characters:
Mari: A seventeen year old girl, who is going through some stuff in her life, and feels that a visit to her home town will help clear some of the stuff up. She has brown hair, and green eyes....as do a lot of my fictional girls....
Andrew: An also seventeen year old guy, with light brown hair, and dark brown eyes....I think...yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what he looks like. He has a messed up past, but a bright future ahead of him.
Seven: A wonderful green dragon who was stolen as an egg, and now is in the hands of a mad professor.
Bernard Peasbody/BP: The mad professor, who has severe bi-polar....as diagnosed by my aunt. Many thanks....
Now, I must depart.
Farewell.

Pictures!
I feel like sharing a bunch of pictures today...so here goes!
^That would be my facebook cover picture. My two favorite features...my hair, and my eyes.
My sweet little kitty can fit in a cup. Isn't that adorable?
Prettiful tree.
A slightly blurry rose.
I was trying to curl my hair once, and I wanted to take a picture of it before it loosened up and stopped being so bouncy.
Both sides curled, and...they loosened up....
And that is a picture of my class, drawn by my classmate Corgan, who is on the far left. <that way is left. The big angry person would be Bro. Todd, who was our sponsor. Corgan is a pretty good artist huh?
And thus ends the pictures of the day.

Softball and Bible?
I've joined my church's softball team (apparently in the summer, all the churches in the area put together softball teams, and play each other...it's pretty fun,) and we just had a game yesterday. Well, actually we had two games...and guess what...out of those two games, we're undefeated!!! In losing.... Anyway, I was out in the outfield...and I was thinking...I know, thinking is very dangerous, but I seem to do it anyway....
Anyway, there I was...out in the outfield...thinking. And it came to my mind that friends are important. And life is kind of like softball....
You're out in the outfield, and you have teammates, then someone comes up, and hits a ball, and everyone has to scurry to get it, and throw it to base, and get that person from the opposing team OUT, so that your team can score and win and all that stuff.
Well, in life, you're out there, in the world, and you have friends, (I hope, if you don't comment on here, and I will find a way to communicate with you. E-mail or something, because everyone needs a friend.) then there's other people who love to mess with you, and hurt your feelings, and it's like they hit a ball way out there. BUT you have friends, and your friends hurry to get the ball of their cruelty, and get that mean person out, so that you can win in life. Kind of...this made more sense in my mind.
But think about if you played softball by yourself against the opposing team? You would pitch the ball, the person would hit it, and then you'd have to run and get it, but it would be so far away, and then you'd have to run back in with the ball to tag the runner, but because you were out there so long, and had no one to throw the ball to, that team would make homerun after homerun...in fact, it might end up so bad that you never ever get to go up to bat. And if on the off chance that you do get up to bat, you're going to be so tired from all that running around after the balls they throw, you won't be able to hit it, and if you do hit it, it won't go very far. And then you have to worry about getting yourself around all the bases, because you have no teammates to hit you to the next base, but you never even make it to the base, because you collapse, and can't make it. Then you're out, and you have to bat again, and again, until you have three outs, and you're the pitcher again, and you're just gonna keep losing and be sooo tired when you get home, you won't even wanna take a bath and change your clothes you'll be so tired.
That's kind of like what life is like without friends. If you get bullied or something, you don't have a friend to go to, who will help field the mean comments, you'll have to field them all yourself, and the bullies will keep scoring against you, tearing you down word by word, making you doubt your self worth, and you have no friends to tell you that it's all a lie. And if on the off chance there's ever anything you do better than the bully, the bully's just going to find a way to make it seem like your gift or talent is worthless, and you'll get tired of trying, and you'll find yourself dying emotionally and mentally, and when you finally get away from the bullies, you're not going to have the mental and emotional energy to deal with life. The littlest thing will send you spiraling into depression, and you'll get snappy and all that....all because you have no one to go to to be on your team for the game of life.
Playing softball and being the only person on your team is also like not having God. Although sometimes you'll get depressed with God.
Yeah...there you go...you know...I should really make a video about all that....NO ONE ELSE MAKE A VIDEO MY IDEA!!! GRR!!! I CALL COPYRIGHT ON IT!!! ©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©by Katie Holm a million times.
Okay, yes, that is my idea please don't use it. Even if you are my friend.
And if you don't have any friends, or don't know Jesus please contact me. I'll be your friend. I'm a very friendly person. I can be annoying, but I'm also friendly. I annoy Deana, because I'm too bubbly for her Melancholy personality. See, I'm a sanguine. And I just lost y'all didn't I?

There's a link to something about them. It's the best thing I found, but I was going to put more. Hence why I call it #1.
Anyway, I just wanted to let y'all know that I am in fact alive, and stuff like that...and give you a...well, allegory I guess?

I Have Returned...continued
I must say that I completely forgot about Timmy being on my team. He was a pretty good athlete too.
Back to the girls!
Theresa: I didn't really get to know her very well, but she seemed okay.
And you guys know all about me.
I had a total blast at camp, and I met a person from the town I moved to! Yes, he's a guy, no, I don't have a crush on him, and no, I didn't get a boyfriend at camp. Just sayin'.
His name is Harley, but I used to always try to call him Gideon, because last year, he showed me how he drinks when he's out hunting, and it was the same way Gideon's men that he kept drank, and stuff like that. So I had it in my mind that his name was Gideon, but it's actually Harley. And the way I can always remember it is to think of motorcycles.
He's a pretty cool guy. We hung out yesterday, because he was bored, and I was bored, and I had a cold, but he was okay with me hanging out with him anyway. And then this morning, my mom and his mom (who met yesterday and really hit it off.) went on a girls morning out, and I hung out with him and "watched" his little brothers with him. In reality, I watched him play a video game, and took a nap. Well a sort of nap, I never really fell asleep.
His little brothers are kinda cute and funny. They really want a free puppy from next door, but their parents won't let them get any, so they smuggled a puppy in the house, then I tried to help them take it back, and it didn't exactly work....
And now I'm at the library watching Despicable Me 2, and blogging.
And tomorrow is my first church league softball game. It's gonna be AWESOME. The first game was actually last week, but I was at camp.
Anyway, I wanna go write a book now. Goodbye.

At Last I Have Returned!
I'm finally back from my wonderful youth camp. And I already miss it. Well, maybe I don't miss camp but I do miss the people there. I don't miss getting up early, or playing volleyball, or having to remember to turn the fan in my dorm room off. I quite enjoyed my sleep in this morning. I don't miss getting sunburns, or kitchen duty, or dorm duty, and I definitely don't miss prep/serve, because I have to wait forever to get to eat, which is super super sad.
I'm very hungry right now. I forgot to eat before coming to the library.
I'm also watching a movie while I type on my lovely blog.
Okay, so back to camp....
I'll start with my team. The sponsors were really nice. I liked them. And we actually had a theme song for our team :) It was: The Wise Man Built his House Upon the Rock. And, if we said these four verses, we would get four dollars...I said the four verses.
And my team was: Leevi, Brett (the same one I had on my first team,) Michael, Dan, Jeremy, I feel like I might be forgetting someone...but I don't think so...for the boys. And the girls; Emma, Bridgette, Martha, Theresa, and me. I shall now give you a short camp biography of each of my teammates.
Leevi: My friend's cousin, who can play guitar, and can play guitar behind his back, which is pretty cool, though I haven't seen it yet, but he's gonna get me a video of it someday.
Brett: He goes to my school--or I go to his since he was there before me--and he's pretty athletic and stuff like that.
Michael: He's a little guy, but he's actually 14, and he's kind of sweet, but no, not that kind of sweet so you know, because I don't like him like that.
Dan: College guy, from Penn View Bible Institute, tall, dark, and handsome would be a good way to describe him and his eyes are amazing. Although, I will also say that he's got a girlfriend who flew to...Romania I think. He's also a good athlete. If we were allowed to vote on college guys for the All Stars Game, I would totally vote for him.
Jeremy: He's the most awesome guy ever. He was homeschooled his whole life, and is from Union Bible College, and he's the lead singer, and was afraid he was going to have a bad cold which would be bad if he was the lead singer.
For the girls:
Emma: A pretty good athlete, and the niece of our sponsors. And stuff like that.
Bridgette: She's one of my best friends at camp, and she's a good therapist, and she's really good at giving shoulder massages too. I wanted to kidnap her and bring her with me and stuff.
Martha: She's a really sweet girl. So sweet. Kind of quiet, and she gives the air of a shy bookworm. Although I like bookworms. She gave the most amazing testimony.
...to be continued do to library closing...

Rawr
Hey, sorry I've taken so long to get another blog post up. I've been writing, and stuff like that.
I discovered that I can watch Touched by an Angel online, so I'm pretty happy.
And futhermore, Youth Camp starts soon! I am so excited! And happy! I haven't been to Youth Camp since...last year...but still! I've missed it!
So, on Monday, off I will go and find meself some friends.
I even bought snacks just for it! Crackers, and poptarts, and gummis, and there were some other things too....but I don't remember what. And we also got gatorade :)
Yup, I'm happy.
Yesterday was Independence Day, and it was fun too. The fire department had a hose, and it sprinkled, and I ran through it, and it was so fun! I got soaked. It was fun.
Well, just thought I'd check in with my blogy friends.
