   I know!!!! It’s terrible!!!!!!! We have to go to Florida this weekend!!!! It will be the best games ever and I have to watch them!!!! I will die if I can’t go!!!! I already have everything planned out!!!! Oh yeah, and this morning in church we had a sermon about being persistant. So I guess maybe if I keep trying to make my mother take me then she will say yes!!!!! I must go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

   Oh, and yes it was a good experience for me and I also hope my next plan (the Florida trip) works out better for me It’s going to be TX vs. Minnesota and Michigan vs. Penn State and then the winners will play for the championship!!!!!! [GO TX AND PENN ST!!!!] [Oh yeah, and UT totally creamed A&M last night (3 matches to 0) it was awesome!!!!]

   Come on mother!!!!!!!!!! Listen to me and Aunt Shelly!!!!!!!!!!

   Good girl — always be persistent! (Everyone else calls it stubborn, but you and me, we know the truth, right?)

   I think your experience with both planning and persistence is very valuable. Have you thought of applying it to a trip to Singapore for Chinese New Year? I haven’t given up hope for that yet. If you apply your skill and persistence to it, along with mine, I am beginning to think we might just move the world…. how about it?

   Yes, persistent is definitely the better word. And of course I’ll plan to go to Singapore for Chinese New Year, as long as someone else pays for it

   You know, I’m even going to pay for the tickets to the volleyball games in Florida. All my mom has to pay for is the gas and hotels!!! And get this: the top 3 teams (and the 11th ranked team, Minnesota) are going to play!!! How can she say no???!!! I must go watch!!! Oh, and earlier I taped up about 50 papers reminding her about the Florida games. She can’t do anything w/o seeing them! There’s one on the refridgerator however you spell it, computer, tv, bathroom door, bathroom mirror, bed, dish-washer, fireplace, microwave, pantry, and I don’t even remember all the other places. Oh yeah, and I’ve e-mailed her a link to the championship website ever day! Think she’ll get the hint???

   coup

   -noun

   1. a highly successful, unexpected stroke, act, or move; a clever action or accomplishment.

   2. (among the Plains Indians of North America) a brave or reckless deed performed in battle by a single warrior, as touching or striking an enemy warrior without sustaining injury oneself.

   a SUCCESSFUL clever action going on - yes
   a reckless deed going on - no way!!!!!!!!

   I don’t know…. with a daughter so hard-working, it would be hard to say no.

   (I’d be too tired to ever say anything at all, after cleaning all the papers off of appliances, mirrors, etc. I hope, though, that I wouldn’t be too tired to drive to Florida, y’know?)

    I really think I would be. I can hardly drive into houston w/o feeling drowsy! and driving two days to see three games hardly seems worth it…I don’t know….

    Dad or Craig can help you drive and you know that, you just don’t want to go so you keep making excuses. It’s not fair!
