Dear Diary - 

It's the new year and I got back from Canada yesterday! It's probably around midnight and the reason I writing at this hour is because our electricity went out. I was trying to go to sleep and I turned over and it was pitch black in my room. It totally freaked me out. 
Anyway, Canada was awesome. It was beautiful up there. The only downside was that I was sick most of the time. I did learn how to ski and it is pretty easy. We were in Banff Canada and there was huge mountains & snow! Like I said it was BEAUTIFUL! One night while i was there we went in the hot tub they had at the hotel we were staying at. Even though I was sick, it was still really fun. Here are a few stories. 

STORY #1: about Davey B.
At Lake Louise, the place where we were skiing, there was the ski lift for the bunny slopes which was a "T-bar" lift. There were two lines. There were wooden poles stuck in the snow and there was rope in between them to separate the lines. And the green slope ended right at the lines. Of course, you could get around them. Well, Davey had gone on the green slope and was headed straight for the lines. Out of panic, he didn't turn. So, as he approached the lines, he bent backwards to duck under them. When Davey did this, he bent too far! So, as a result, he sat on his skis! He made it under but one of his poles got stuck in the snow and the other one bumped Tracey. He got all the way under and Kenny was right in Davey's path! Kenny started yelling "Davey, Davey, Look out!" And the whole time Davey was smiling.

STORY 2: Title - Looney Tooney's & Quaders.
While we were in Canada we heard many Canadians speaking French and English. Of course their English was spoken with quite a different accent. Mollie and I went up to the front desk and asked, "Can we have quarters or whatever you call them for this dollar coin?" They guy that worked there said, "You mean quaders?" It was really funny. Also their $1 coins are called  Looney's and the $2 coins are called Tooney's!

Ok. new subject. I have this major crush on Jackson and  he knows that. Well, I've been trying to think of all the reasons of "if he were my boyfriend why he would be a good boyfriend for me. 

  1. Christian?
  2. Nice
  3. funny
  4. cute!
  5. HOT!
  6. I can be myself around him
  7. He listens when he knows what I've got to say is important.
  8. We get along.
  9. He's cool.
  10. He can cheer me up when I'm in a crappy mood
  11. I can trust him
  12. I can talk to him about stuff that I can't talk to mom, my bf's, or other guys about
  13. He understands stuff that I talk to him about.
  14. Overall, he's a really good friend, too.
  15. Again, he's cute.
Well, I g2g. After I say 1 more thing. Right now, I have a lot of cool guys that I am close to. And, i know this sounds dumb, but I don't know if they are just close friends or if I have a crush on them. These are the people. 

Jackson C. "C"
Kyle S. ?
Daryll D. ?
Joey G. ?
Timothy C. "C" BW
Nathan M. ?
Cameron L. ?
Scott L. ?
Colton W. BW

? - crush not sure
"C" - crush for sure
BW = Both ways (leaning toward crush)

See, I wouldn't be as worried if it were less guys. So for the first time that I've written in a diary, I don't know for sure who to put down by "I <3" tonight. Because if I do, I might leave somebody out.

Emily K. Record
I <3 Jackson C and ? and an unknown person(s)

So. Many. Things! I definitely remember that Canada trip as one where I spent most of the time puking my guts out to the point that I lost my voice. My parents panicked when I called them from the airport to tell them we landed safely because I sounded awful. 

As far as my list of why Jackson would have been a good boyfriend, I'm actually surprised that it isn't more ridiculous - at least I had at least a small sense of what was important. That being said, I have no idea what I would have talked to him about that I didn't talk to my mom about, unless it was crushes I had on other people? Who knows. 

Now. That list. All but one (I have no idea who Joey is) I had a crush on at some point. Then again, when I was younger, any guy who even glanced at me I interpreted as flirting and therefore fell madly in love with them. Oops.
