Oh Darlin! Please believe me. I'd never do you no harm.

Sooooo not much goin on, I'm done with this semester I'm in Bel Air visiting my mom and all is well. I'm kinda bored so I'm doing LaShawn's blog thingy.

10 years ago:
I was 7 years old, just getting out of second grade at St. Anne's Catholic School in Sacramento,CA. I don't really remember much else, except on dec 28th of that year my mother and I moved to St.Croix.

8 years ago:
I was 9 years old and going to St. Mary's Catholic School in St. Croix. I was in 4th grade. My teacher was Ms. Steele. She got pregnant in the middle of the school year and she had her nose pierced. I thought that was pretty cool. One thing I distinctly remember is her taking us out into the courtyard and having us look up and see if we could name the type of clouds we saw. At that point I had a huge crush on this 6th grader named Jean Pierre. He was from Canada, and his mom was the lunch lady at school he had an older brother in 8th grade whose name I can't remember but it was uber French too. J.P. (thats what we called him) was one of my best friends, and he introduced me to N'sync. For the talent show that year J.P., my friend Lauren Bigsbee, and I lipsynced and created a dance routine to the N'sync song "Bye, Bye, Bye". I also dressed up and sang "Don't Cry For Me Argentina" from Evita. Bobby came to watch me in the talent show and won a raffle. my mom was at home sick because she got food poisoning from KFC. (In St. Croix you have two fast food options KFC or McDonalds both were toxic to health beyond normal). After that school year, my mom and Bobby that we should move and we moved to Wilmington, NC.

5 years ago:
I was 12, and went to St. Mary's Catholic School in Wilmington, NC. I was in 7th grade. Lauren McAree and Andrew Marhefka were (and still are) my best friends. That school year I got my first C on a report card ever. It was in math, pre-algebra. That sucked. at the end of that school year, my mom and I moved to Durham and Bobby moved to Delaware. Lauren moved to MD. Andrew stayed in wilmington. That year I started 8th grade. It was the first year I ever went to public school. It was Brogden Middle School. It was there that I got my first real boyfriend. His name was Edgar Hernandez. We "dated" for a whole entire full 2 weeks (ha!) He was my first kiss. It was gross, I was in shock, it was totally unexpected. I was walking out of school because I had after school tutoring (for algebra one go figure)and he caught me as I was in the front hallway and kissed me. I think I threw up a little. lol. After him I had many other boyfriends because it was the first time I'd had any type of male attention. 8th grade was over all pretty awesome, except for edgar *gag*.
