Here's some of my funny stories!
When I was about 4 we lived in Indiana out in the middle of no where. I pretty much didn't have any friends, and no one lived within a 2 mile radius except my great-uncle Arlo. We had a big woods behind our house. Well one day b/c of lack of friends I decided to play with my cat. We had an outdoor cat at the time, his name was Tiger. So I was happily following Tiger around our yard and it decided it wanted to play with a squirrel. So we were chilling with the squirrel, well more like Tiger was stalking it and i was stading next to them watching. The squirrel got pretty scared tho, and I guess it thought I was a tree and it decided to run up my back. And only being 4, I didn't know they had rabbies or any of those fun things so I was pretty excited. I wanted to show my parents so I went running inside with a squirrel on my back and I started yelling for my parents to come look. Well my mom and my dad came and saw, and of course my dad started flipping out! He went out to the garage and got a broom and started chasing me around the house and yard trying to get it off. Yeah, I started balling my eyes out, and my parents told me how animals have diseases. and I've hated squirrels ever since.
Okay...talk about bad first impressions. Here's the story of my frist time at Melinda's house. Well Melinda had invited me over before an O-town concert (yes they're HORRIBLE...but it was fun). She offered me some pizza, and I accepted. Well I was happily eating my pizza in her room and she wanted me to try on a shirt. I was like "okay" but in my head I'm like "crap, where the poop do I set my pizza?!" And being the retarded person that I am, I was too stupid to ask where to set my pizza down. And then I had an ingenius thought, I'll just keep it in my mouth. So I was trying on a shirt with a piece of pizza sticking out of my mouth and yeah you guessed it...it went straight into my face. That def looked cool!!! And then I was just sitting there laughing my head off for about 10 minutes, never moving the pizza or fixing the shirt. Man..I'm a winner.
This is the tragic tale of one little bunny. While driving along one day after church Melinda and I were discussing some very deep subjects. It happened to be one of our "deeper talks." Everything was going great till we turned the corner to her street. All the sudden Melinda was yelling "WHITNEY, LOOK OUT!" As I looked down all I could see was a lil bunny stareing straight at me. It's cute, sweet, innocent little eyes looking back up at mine. But I knew there was nothing I could do. *thump* It was the sad sad end to our bunny friend. As the tears welled up in my eyes I took melinda the rest of the way home. Talk about your unsupportive friends...she was not only laughing her head off the whole time, but she was like "whitney, we have to go back to see if it's really dead." Geez, like the thump didn't give it away!! She FORCED me to go back to the bunny. And so we went back, yeah sure enough it was lying in the street. And so I went into the nearby driveway and went to turn back around. But in order to turn around i just about had to go over it again. And that made me sad. So yes...I'm a horrible bunny killer (and birds...but thats another story).
Every year we go to a big christian music festival in KY. This year, I think I was in 8th grade, I brought my friend Cara along. My cousin Joel was playing in a worship band on the main stage Saturday morning. It was a pretty big deal, so my whole family went and about 20,000 other people. We got RIGHT in the front and center to see him. Well right after the band played there was a speaker. The speaker went ON...and ON...and ON! I swear he never finished. So after an hour...or 5 Cara and I were pretty much gone. We were just ready to leave. Well during one part of the sermon apparently the speaker had asked for people to stand if they wanted to make a first time commitment. Not that Cara or I had anything against first time commitments-it just wasn't for us, but we weren't really paying attention. We saw people standing up here and there and we got pretty excited because we thought it was time to leave, so we stood up too. After we realized our mistake we tried to figure a way to slyly sit back down. But...you really can't be sly in front of 20,000 people. So we sat back down, but of course not unnoticed. The speaker must have seen us because a few minutes after we had set down he made the following announcement "If there is anyone in the first few rows who felt a little awkward or scared, and you'd feel better walking with me thats fine. Please come forward now." And I swear I could feel everyone stareing at me. It was horrible. It had to of been my most embarassing moment.
Last summer, Melinda, Joel, Adam and I were hanging out in downtown Grand Haven. We were walking down the strip and we had to stop to cross the light. Well the light changed and the car wasn't moving. There was an old lady and she looked like she had died behind the wheel. We kinda started freaking out cause we didnt know what to do. The people in the car next to us also noticed and they tried getting the ladies attention. The girl got out of her car and went and tapped on the window of the dead ladies car. And then the impossible happened...the lady woke from the dead!! It was one of the scariest moments of my life.
