Manipulation is Not a Factor

So life is going ok. My birthday is on Saturday. So I'm going to the zoo during the morning and early afternoon, and then later that night we'll be going to IHOP for dinnertime with the Mero Family. But at the zoo, I'll be taking pictures for school.
I've been trying to get my new phone and it's been a big pain in the butt! So I've been using other people's phones to keep in touch with my friends. Sam was gutsy and called back my dad's phone, then again, he didn't know that it was my dad's number. But I did get to talk to Sam on Monday night, he actually answered his phone, I'm so proud of him!

Quick Side Note: William (British kid from my photo class) is getting pretty desperate to...I don't even know. He sat in his car today and just kind of stared at me for a few minutes. As my brothers would say...Creeper! [If you're kind of lost about what/who I'm talking about check out the first blog on this page: Unnerving & Such]

Anyways, but I did try to explain to Sam about my cousin's text the weekend of our other cousin's wedding. I felt like I should at least try to defend her somewhat. I told my cousin about the problems that I've been having with the British kid in my photo class and that I would like to talk to Sam about it, just to make myself feel better in a weird, crazy kind of way. It's not like he can do anything, he's in Idaho and I'm here in Colorado. I've known Sam for a little over a year now, but I don't know him as well as I would like to. But mainly, I just feel that I shouldn't tell Sam. The kid's got like three weeks left and doesn't need to be worried about me. So I haven't told him. But I had told my cousin and apparently she thought I was manipulating her into telling or start the bringing up of William to Sam (if that makes sense). I was thoroughly appalled that she brought it up to Sam. If I'm going to tell Sam, then I'll tell him when I'm ready to. My mom said that that's just how 13-year-old girls are like and that's how I was (I then gave a BIG apology to my mom!). I guess that I just didn't make it clear to my cousin that I didn't want to tell Sam.
Like I said, I don't know Sam as well as I would like to, but he doesn't need that distraction when there's nothing that he can do. He might be upset when I do tell him what's been going on because he probably would've at least like to know what's going on. It's pretty obvious that Sam cares. There are so many things that I would like to talk to him about except that there's nothing really to change because I'm here and he's there (He's the one with the smart head!). Also the fact that once I get on the phone with him, there's nothing important
anymore than the present moment. Anything that's not so important just fades away. It's actually kind of nice. It's kind of interesting cause there are some things that Sam and I have talked about that I never thought I'd talk about with him. Or he's said things that just shocks me that he'd even say! LOL!
But when it comes to describing him, I just can't. I'm at a total lose of words (Shawn is so jealous!), but it did cross my mind, what is at least one thing that I like about Sam? Honestly? I love the fact that he's forgetful! I know it sounds so weird, but it's true. I just love that about him. I've noticed with forgetful people (because I am one!) that if there is something that is truly important, you'll just remember. No reminders or anything. It's a spiritual thing. I've found that when the sun has gone done, and I start to relax for the night, I just remember. My cousin told me that she doesn't like the way that he treats me, but despite the fact that he's so forgetful, he's still always there. He's an amazing friend. And I'll tell y'all that whoever he marries is one lucky girl!
I'm totally off on weird, different tangents! But I need to go to bed! AHH!!! It's almost eleven! Sam is such a bad influence on me! LOL! Talk to y'all later - Addi
