RV 8



We're homeward bound! I think we're in Missouri. Or maybe Illinois. I have absolutely no idea. Anyway. You can't really tell what's happening in the video, but basically, Mom was showing off her perfectly crafted s'more, and Duke ate it right out of her hands. Classy trailer camp stuff.

RV 7

Enjoy a very late boring slideshow, plus a pretty cool Indigo Wild tour.

RV 6

 
Let's pretend I posted this yesterday when I was supposed to. The pool was fun, I finally got a bit of a tan, and shed the nickname "Casper." Lazy day. Good day. Yay. o

RV Day 5


Happy half-way! We made it to Kansas. Let's talk about the video, shall we? I made the mistake of letting Kenzie and Sam take control of the camera for a bit, and they filmed me eating. I paid with my dignity, and learned that if I want anyone to think I'm attractive, never to let them see me eat. Also, apparently, Sam is attracted to raisins now. Interesting.

On another note, rip-sticking is my jam. Well, it was, until Sam turned out to be better than me. I can rip-stick uphill, and he can jump on from a standstill, so we're tied until one of us learns how to wheelie. Oh, and Kenzie grants you full permission to laugh at the end, but you should still cringe a little bit, if you have any sympathy at all.

Finally, Sam would like you all to know that he's named himself "co-editor" of the video blog. Lovely.

RV Day 4

Nothing happened today. Nothing I could get on video, anyway. Duke had slightly more excitement, he ate a cheese stick, stole a peach, and mysteriously coughed up an earring that I've been missing for weeks.

RV Day 3

I'm not blaming the wifi, tonight's video is late simply because it took me a while to make it. Fun stuff, though, yes? We learned how to empty the septic tank! Just a week left!

RV Day 2


After a pretty rough night, we made it to Pennsylvania to tour Carnegie Mellon, and then to Ohio to this lovely campsite/trailer park. It's a bit of an adventure, but maybe I'll get some sleep tonight. Note Kenzie at the end getting distracted by horses.

RV Day 1

I'm really sorry this is so late, I severely overestimated my ability to be able to post. I'll work on it. By the end of this adventure, I'll have this down to a science. Anyway, we're on our way, in the glorious Widrey.

RV Day 0


Oh my goodness, lucky you! You get to watch my vlog as I go on a marvelous, 10 day, college tour, full family RV trip! Today was filled with stress and packing. Can't wait for what comes next...

Concert

She's unquestionably talented. It's nearly cliche, the way her fingers dance over the strings, the way she dips and moves with the bow. The music is elegant, beautiful, perfect. She's an extension of the instrument, perfectly angled and graceful. All but her face. Her expression is straight, pulled taunt across her face. There's a dull fog of boredom in her eyes.

Suddenly, her finger slips, and her hand splays up, quickly, away from the neck of the violin. Just as fast, she recovers, and her fingers take their places again, with just a quick a break in the music. I glance around to see if others noticed.

The feelings in the room remain much the same, all except for hers. She smiles softly now, just to herself. In this moment, I love her the most.

New Blog

I've created a new blog!  I didn't want to ruin Organized Chaos with weird campy craft stuff and knitting, so I made a craft blog on the side. Go check it out!
