Putting the finishing touches on her makeup, eighteen year old Mercy Alaman mentally prepares to go on stage and sings her heart out.However, this was not the only thing that was on her mind. Yesterday, Mercy and her parents were reunited with their lifelong good friends, the Hayes family. A few minutes later, the Hayes were boarding the extra large tour bus that Wesley, Mercy, and their parents would be sharing while on tour (Since Wesley and Mercy were touring together, both families had thought it would be a good idea to share the extra large tour bus).In the end, this had turned out to be such a great idea. After all, it gave both families time to spend quality time together. Due to the fact that Mercy was secretly and completely in love with Wesley, this made her quite happy.As Mercy finished getting ready and put her makeup back in its case, she could not help but smile at herself in the mirror. After all, just like this summer was going to be, tonight was going to be awesome!

Getting ready for her sleepover birthday party tonight, eighteen year old Cyndra found herself thinking of the wonderful things that today had brought so far. Not only had it brought the first day of the week long Fall break, but it had also brought awesome gifts, a breakfast with her parents and best friends, mani/ pedi, haircut, and a shopping spree with Allie. Truth be told, it had been a great birthday, so far! However, it was about to get even better!Tonight, Allie, Cyndra, and eight of their good girl friends from church and school would be gathering at Cyndra's mansion for a fun filled sleepover! Truth be told, it was going to be awesome!

Dear Journal, Today is the first day of my senior year, and I could not be more excited! After all, I know that this is going to be an awesome year!On a different note, I feel both happy and nervous for a completely different reason. Recently, it occurred to me that I am in love with my best guy friend, Trey. While the fact that he and I are best friends remains the same, my feelings for him are different. With this said, I look forward to seeing where these feelings lead me!-Cyndr

As Trey drove us to Olive Garden, my mind went back to last week's barbeque. Before, he, Allie, and their parents had left, Trey had asked me if I would join him for lunch today. When I had asked if he meant just the two of us, he had said yes. Afterwards, I had told him that I would like that. Fast forward to one week later, and Trey and I are on our way to lunch. Truth be told, I have a strong feeling that today is going to be awesome! After all, I am in good company!

Dear Journal, It has been six hours and fifteen minutes since I arrived back home from tour, and a lot of things have happened since then. Not only did Mom and I go out for a good lunch, but we also got our hair, nails and toes done (I am glad that we did this because I was in need of some mother and daughter time, haircut, as well as some TLC for my nails and toes.). I am glad that we did these things, because Mom informed me at lunch that a welcome back barbeque was going to be held for me tonight. A plethora of my friends, my best friends, and my best friends parents are going to be there.Truth be told, I am excited about seeing everyone tonight, especially my best friends, After all, it has been awhile since I have seen them!-Cyndra

The last time that I saw my parents and best friends was right after school ended back in May. Two days after school ended, I boarded my tour bus with my amazing manager and good friend, Kate, as well as her husband, my body guard and good friend, Jeff. As I step off of the tour bus with my things in hand, I step off of the bus and onto my mansion's driveway. Even though it was awesome and amazing to be on tour, it is equally as nice to be home.

As all of us made our way from the worship service to the cafeteria to eat a yummy Sunday lunch, I heard someone calling my name. Turning around, I blushed and smiled. It was Reese."Hi, Mer!" Reese smiled."Hi, Reese!" I smiled back. "What's up?""Nothing much, I just wanted to ask you something, that's all.""You can always ask me anything.""Cool." Reese smiled. "I was wondering if you wanted to go on a walk with me during free time this afternoon.""Just you and me?""Yes.""I would like that very much." I smiled, my heart thudding inside of my chest. "I really would."

At CCC, it is tradition that a talent show be held after dinner Wednesday nights.As my cabin mates, best friends, counselor, and the rest of the high school campers and counselors make their way to the worship center, I think of the main reason of why I am excited about tonight. While at lunch today, Reese asked me how I would feel about singing "Finest Hour" from "Teen Witch" with him. Of course I had said yes! Not only was this one of Reese's and my favorite songs from our childhood, but I would happily sing with Reese any day.

Making our way inside of our cabin, we were bombarded with squeals and hugs from our four other cabin mates and counselor. Due to the fact that these girls and counselor were good friends of ours from camp, Hannah, Alyssa, Marley, and I began to squeal out of excitement and hug them back!As all of us unpacked and put our sleeping bags and pillows on our beds and engaged in excited chatter, I could not help but smile and feel excited! After all, I was back at a place that I considered a second home!

As my best friends and made our way from the spa (We received massages, facials, and mani/pedis) to the Galleria to partake in some summertime/camp shopping, my mind went to thinking about camp. Credlocke Christian Camp has two sessions: Session one is in June, and session two takes part in July. This year, my best friends and I will be attending the first session. As the limo dropped off my besties and me at the Galleria, I could not help but feel excited! After all, this summer was going to be epic!

"Okay, Dad, we'll be there as soon as we can." I said into the phone. "I love you, too. Bye." "Is everything okay, Hals?" Shane asked, as he, Bella, Luke, and I made our way out of Elitch Gardens and to Shane's car."Yes, everything is fine." I replied, honestly and thoughtfully. "My Mom and Dad have something that they want to discuss with us.""I wonder what it could be." Luke said."I don't know, but we will find out when we get to Halsey's."Without saying anything more, the four of us got into the car and headed back to my house.
