AJ's life

its been long....

It has been a long time since i have had the time to come on here and write a post. But i am in an extraordinary place. I am currently in Germany. My aunt, uncle and two cousins live here.
I only flew in last week and it has been great. But before any of that let me tell you about the flights…
I flew out of the Chicago airport. i was so exited. I was going to fly business class. I could not wait.
So we get to the airport (and I am flying by myself) and we go through the security everythings great.
So we go and have a seat in one of the restraunts. We order some stuff to drink and just talk. The blinds by the window we were sitting at we closed and we decided to open them so we could watch the planes.
we saw one take off. Then it starts to rain. and the wind starts to blow. My cousin got a text from her husband that there was a tornado warning for the area. So I got a little freaked out.
It was a tornado! I don´t usually get scared that easily but when the manager comes and tells us we can move away from the window if we would like I start to worry.
we move to one the center tables, along with everyone aroud us. My cousin whispers to me that if things get really bad that we are going to jump into the cubby hole that the waitresses go into when they get your checks ready.
I was at this point I was clenching my teeth to stop myself from shaking. Needless to say it didn´t help. My knees starded to feel like jelly as watched the wind rip peices of the roof off. It was worse now, much worse.
The manager comes back in and says that everyone needs to evacuate into the basement of the airport.
People around us start to get there credit cards out but the manager says not to worry about it, that it´s on the house. And the people around us are saying that no they waant to stay and finish their meal. And I am thinking are you serious? there is possibly a tornado coming straight for us and you are worried about a pizza you haven eveern finished, and probably isn´t that good either.
So me and my cousin go leaving them a tip because she felt guilty.
By the time we get out of the restraunt the hallway is a ghost town. no one i there except for the occasional security guard. As we move through the silent halls, our footfalls seeming to get louder by the second, all I can think about is how the St. Luis airport was torn apart.
Sooner rather that later, thankfully, we find where everyone else is.
They tried to cram 500 plus people into two hallways. Half of us were on the stairs.
It was a sight to see. I would have laughed if it were under other circumstances.
After waiting for twenty minutes my cousin says why don´t we just walk up and see what happens.
Well I will answer the big question first no I didn´t die. How could if I am writing this.
Exactly
Well. we walked up and got all the way to the security check. Sadly we were not the only people who snuck back up there was a good 50 people in front of us. What I was glad about was that we didn´t come up when they said that it was clear. Right when the nice sweet robotic voice on the p.a. sounded every one else came up. A sea of people. Ballcaps, kids on shoulders, and crazy eyed people as far as the eye could go in an airport.
I look to my cousin Sarah and she said "stick with me kid"
After this chain of events everything was ok. Pretty much.
From Chicago I flew into Frankfurt, Germany. And frankfurt had it´s own set of problems. But thats for another post.

Hello people of Earth. I broke my foot. The three metacarpals of my middle toes. Do you know how? Of course you don't, I haven't told you yet. I was dancing and I fell on my foot. I have a cast and It's purple. Pretty crazy, huh? Well see ya later alligator.

HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I broke my finger. But it's better now. Now one of my friends almost broke her finger. Kind of funny if you think about it. I love my life. I love it , I love it , I love it. Except that my aunt lives far away. And I mean really far away. I'm talking really, really far away. Get the picture? Are you sure you do? Good. Well see you later alligator.

Who says football is safe?

2008-11-14T19:40:00.002-05:00

Not me. Football it's just men wearing tights running and tackling each other. What's the point? I mean come on. Any ways, I broke my pinkie. Yep I broke my pinkie. Guess how? Football. This is my third football injury. The first one was when I scraped my nose on the concrete (my aunt put band-aids on it but it made me look like a spider). The second one is when some one through one at my head. And the third one is my broken pinkie.Well see ya later alligator.

day one

2008-08-13T10:33:00.001-04:00

Well we are in Florida. I'm having a great time with all of my family. We have chicken fights and we shoot everyone in the air. We had a double red flag. That means we can't go swimming in the ocean, because the waves are to dangerous to swim in. I've taken lots of pictures. Well see ya later alligator.
