YEAH!

Being an unsocialized homeschooler with no friends, one of the extracurricular activities I participate in is called YEAH! [Youth Educated At Home].  We are a group of thirty or more high school age homeschoolers that get together once a month just to hang out.  Sometimes we have an organized activity day such as Lazer Tag, Bowling, Roller Skating, etc.  Other times we just go hang out at someone's house.  either way, its pretty awesome.  If you are homeschooled and are reading this, and don't know about YEAH! please feel free to ask me about it.

Not only do I attend these events, I am on the Board of Directors.  We meet the first Wednesday of every month, usually at Starbucks (we might change locations to Politos though), to discuss and plan.  Generally, our meetings start of with consulting the dream book.  I know this sounds weird, but we all have very strange dreams and there is this funny book that tells you what your dreams mean.  Now, personally, I don't believe that if you have a dream with the devil in it, its really about your spouse, but whatever.  Its still very fun.  During our meetings, also known as Tea Parties, we review previous events, our finanial situation, and what we are planning for the next event.

The nice, leadershiply thing (I'm VP of the group) to say would be that we couldn't have our group without all the wonderful people of YEAH! but personally, I think we could have meetings without the group.  If the group had to stop meeting for some reason, we'd probably still have our Board of Directors Tea Parties because they are really awesome and fun.  One of my duties at events is anouncements and game planning.  Basically, I make announcements and plan games (bet you didn't guess that!).  Once I got asked if I had started the whole group, which I didn't take claim for because that wouldn't be true.

So yeah, thats just a little bit about YEAH! don't you agree that name is confusing?? Sometimes conversations go like this:

Bob:  "Do we have anything planned for Friday night?"
Sally: "Yeah."
Bob: "What do we have planned?"
Sally: "Yeah."
Bob: "No, but WHAT do we have planned?"
sally: "I told you Yeah"
Bob: "and i asked WHAT not IF"
Sally: "YEAH"
