What's new everybody?
Not much has happened since my last post...
I had my last day at work which was pretty good, it was really long though...
I overflowed the coffee machine which I though was somewhat appropriate because that was how I started working at QT. :)
Sunday was the start of the missions conference, Monday we took some pictures, Tuesday my sisters had to do school (mwa ha ha ha) Tomorrow I'm going to go see "Shorts" with Grandma and then we're going to hang out 'till church that night. Then I get to hang out with Melissa!
Thursday going out to Who Knows Where.
Friday Missions Conference,
Saturday hanging out around Main Street with some friends.
Sunday Last day of the missions conference.
Then On Friday I LEAVE FOR COLLEGE! HOW SCARY IS THAT!
It still hasn't really sunk in for me that I'm actually going to college, kinda the same un-realness that I had when I was going to Peru.
Well, I think that's all for tonight.
night!

"While the gold teeth were nice....I'd be a bit more choosy if I were you..."
Thursday, July 2, 2009 at 6:03pm
I wrote this on FB a little while ago, and most of you have probably heard this story already, but if not-here you go.

Okay, so I was at work on Tuesday and every once in a while, a non-QT employee, will come and SCRUB our bathrooms.
So I was talking to the guy that night, he was pretty nice. After we had talked for a while he looks at me and asks:
"Are you mixed race?"
". . . Excuse me?"
"Are you mixed race?"
". . . no."
"Really, you're white?"
"yes."
"You're very pretty."
"Oh, why thank you!"
"Seriously though, you're very pretty."
Well, we talked a little bit later and then he looks at me and quietly asks:
"Would it be cool if I call you some time?"
uhh...
Didn't know how to respond to that, so I pulled out my first line of defense-something that should shut down a few guys.
"What church do you go to?"
We were still talking quietly so he didn't hear me correctly.
"I go."
"Where???"
"St. Louis."
Okay, not what I meant, but okay.
Defense number 2--should shut almost any guy down.
"Guess how old I am."
He gave me a confused look.
"How old?"
"Seventeen."
~sad face~
Yes! Victory!
"When will you be 18?"
ARE YOU KIDDING ME???
"Not 'till January."
He paused.
"How 'bout we're just friends 'till then? Would that be cool?"
NO!...Come on man Really? REALLY!?
I don't even know the guys name!
Oh, and by the way, the guy is probably in his 30's.
I don't remember what I said to that, but I pulled out my third and final defense-almost guaranteed to get rid of any guy.
"Look, if you can convince my dad-no problem-sure."
"OOoohh, that'll be tough!"
Well DUH!!! You're closer to HIS age than mine!
Then he said something about being black.
"No, no, that's not the problem. He doesn't care what color a guy is, so long as he believes in Jesus Christ and is living his life right-color doesn't matter."
"Really?!"
"Yeah."
Silence
"What's his number?"
OH GOOD GRIEF MAN!
I didn't want to give out my dad's cell number to some random guy who knew that I was a minor but was still interested.
I told him that I'd talk to him Friday--he said he was supposed to be back to QT then--so, I'll see how serious he is tomorrow.
After he left I told the two guys I was working with about what happened, and later one of them came into the cooler.
"Hey Hannah, I have some advice for you."
"What?" I figured I was doing something wrong.
He said:
"While the gold teeth were nice...and he's got a pretty good job...I'd be a bit more choosy if I were you."

Last Day!
Okay, haven't updated in a loooong time...
How are you guys?
....
Good!
Well, lets see Fireworks stand went very very well, I still hate it, but this was probably the best year I've had of it.
Camp was Fantastic! Attitudes were awesome, and there were some kids who came with our church who accepted Christ as their Savior-ALWAYS Fantastic when that happens!
I got to know some friends better, which I am very happy about. :)
Camp started out kinda rough, everyone had their best friend, group, or boyfriend/girlfriend, so I was kinda left standing alone, or feeling in the way. But it got better.
Our speaker did a wonderful Job, I'll have to put up some notes.
Well, after I got home from camp on Friday, my Dad and I drove up to Wisconsin for our family reunion. That was a good time, got to see everybody! :D
Oh, and we made sparkler bombs-AWESOME!
Then me and Dad went and saw "UP"-very cute.
We [He] then drove home, and the next morning I got my wisdom teeth pulled.
A very good experience overall, nothing horrible happened, and the doctor and nurses were marvelous.
My face kinda hurt afterwords but that was to be expected....
I watched a LOT of TV and movies that week....
Well, I graduated to the college class and I love it! I'm really sad that I'm only going to be in there for a couple more weeks.
PCC is only about Two weeks away....
Today is my Last Day of work at QT until I come home from college! SO EXCITED!
I absolute love my job, but I'm ready to be done for a while :)
I'll have to tell you guys about Ronald on my next post...heeeheeeheeeheee....
Okay, I'm outta here for know, workin' 9 to 5 today.
See ya later!
