16

I am 16 years old. I can't believe it. I feel so old. It's like 16 was a thing that I always looked forward to, but now that I'm actually here, I can't believe it. It's odd.

I had a wonderful birthday. It started the Friday before, when Grandma Hall came down and took me to see Pirates of Penzance at Hale Center Theater. It was kind of a wacky play, I must say. They were all very silly. Mr. DeHaan was in it as the pirate navigator, and he did a very good job. I enjoyed spending the night with my grandma and learning more about her.

Saturday I had a bunch of people come over to my house before the Region Dance. We ate dinner, hung out, met new people. I tried to take some pictures with my mom's camera, but no one would let me. Then we went to the dance, and had fun.

Thursday was my actual birthday. I have some amazing new friends at Hillcrest. I walked in that morning and went to my locker to find a big sign on my locker that read

Happy 16th B-Day Jerom
You are awesomely epic!
<3 Alisa

My name will forever be a plague. :P By the time I got there they had made attempts to cross out the e and put an a. But it made me laugh.

But the surprises weren't over. I opened my locker to find that king sized cookies and cream Hershey's bars had been taped all over my locker. :D Those things are AMAZING. There was also a note hanging there and two cards from Alisa and Andrea. Who are also AMAZING. (As well as Darci, Addie, Attica, Emily, and everyone else in my new group! :D )

Aaaand... I GOT A NEW CAMERA! Yes my pictures are back in business... Assuming I actually remember to take it places and take pictures. :P

Sunday I was ordained a Priest! My grandparents as well as Megan and Bobby got to come and visit. We had this big dinner. My mom makes this delicious pork that she cooks in liquid smoke. Mmm...

Grandma Norris gave me a $25 ITunes card... Which, combined with the $15 each from Evan, Daniel, and Kat, plus the ten that mom owes me, gives me $80 in ITunes money. :D :D :D Jarom is one happy music lover right now.

(P.S. I spent $50 of that last night. :D )

So all in all it was a good birthday. I'll try to keep you guys more posted! Loves and Hugs!

Wow...

Two Months?? TWO MONTHS?!? Wow, I fail.

Hey, all, (If there's anyone left...) Sorry I suck at posting... And reading... And just blogging in general... Yeah, I don't know why I just plain haven't gotten on here in so long.

What's been going on lately? Well, I've been working on my new story (Slowly, when I have time on the computer.) I've been working on music and tweeting poetry (Yes, yes, I know some of it is depressing.) I've been spending time with Amazing friends and coming to terms with my mind. (Finally.)

So I'm going to try and post more often now. Thanks to you who still read this... Though after such a spectacular fail, I don't know if there are any.
