Its been snowin all day and all nite since like 2 yesterday. i was at the library..hmm good times i suppose. coulda been better but yaz knows. =] im like rlly hyper i wonder why...

Snow

There's nothing quite like the first snow of winter...altho tecnically it isn't winter yet...hmm lol.. Anyway I woke up this mornin and I was like WOOOOOOOOOO SNOW!! Altho I guess that parade my friend's in can't go in snow. But yea it's still snowin and it's not like that cheap snow, like it snows and doesn't stick. I hate that so much. Omg the kids at sunday school won't wanna do anything church related. Not that I blame them. It's snow. Haven't seen it in almost a year. VERY exciting. lol.

Boring

My day was pretty boring, but consisted of a lot of excercise. I had to run for the bus twice in 20 minutes. The first time it wasn't my bus, and the second time I was at the wrong bus stop. And yes that is possible. I just don't feeling like explaining myself. Too lazy. And then walking home. I walked with a friend, and he walks really fast. hehe

Allstate

I found out yesterday that I got into allstate. I'm not in band, so like everyone I knew was like, "Hey Sarah! You made allstate!" And I was like WOOOOOOO!! And then today I found out what seat I got. 18!! BAM! Take that! If you haven't noticed I'm like supaa happy at the moment!! WOOOOOO! Or sugar high one of the two. lol WOOOOO!!

December

Today begins December. And it isn't even cold out! I wore a t-shirt. =] I probably shouldn't tell the world that huh...haha oh well =] I wonder what December will bring. November brought me an ipod lol.

Nephew

My nephew left for home early this morning. I miss him :'((((...but his songs are still stuck in my head: HAPPY TAPPIN WITH ELMO!! Children's songs are very annoying.

Cookie Monster

C IS FOR COOKIE THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME! C IS FOR COOKIE THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME! C IS FOR COOKIE THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME! OHHHHH COOKIE COOKIE COOKIE STARTS WITH C. Today we held my nephew's 1st birthday party. His birthday is in about a week. So celebrate it while he is here, and when he is back home. So he got a elmo cell phone, a chicken dance elmo, a sing along pop up thingy, spot goes to farm, touch and feel farm, little people farm, and building blocks. Do I see a theme? He also had cookies and cake for the first time in his life today. It was a cookie monster cake. He made a mess of himself. Cake all over his face and in his hair, EVERYWHERE!! It was pretty funny. =]

Webcam

My brother gave us a webcam for christmas last year. And we hook it up today....wowww. I'm talking to a friend on it right now...except she doesn't have a webcam....kinda weird actually. lol =]

Curious George

This mornin my nephew woke up early, so we decided to watch some tv. Curious George. yay...better than some of the other shows we watched. Little einstein's..*shudder*..we were helping leo save the unicorn *clapclap*. I think I'm scarred for life. Everytime I hear the 1812 overture that's what I'll think of...great. And then after breakfast we listened to sesame street music. THAT'S ELMO'S SONG!!!

Bonfiah

Went to the bonfire tonight. My brother drove me. yea rap! Hangin with friends, the usual. And then when my brother called to ask if I needed a ride home. I don't have a phone, so my best friend's sister called her, to tell her to tell me to call my brother. So then I needed to find a phone cuz my best friend wasted all her minutes on her ex...*coughmanwhorecough*... So then I stole someone else's phone. Quite literally. And then he wouldn't take it back, so I ran away...=] And then my brother's friends yelled at my brother cuz he was walking away from me. They were like "Go back and hold your sister's hand and help her into the car!" And I'm just standing like "uh no thanks. I'm good." It was weird. His friends are weird!! But I guess I can't complain lol.

Crawl

My nephew's visiting for Thanksgiving, and he's sooooo cute. He can crawl really fast! And when he first got here, he didn't recognize anyone, cuz short term memory loss cuz he's little, and he started to cry. And I was like awwwwww. But now it's like he's at home. Literally. His toys are EVERYWHERE!! This is gonna be fun!!

Hangover

Last night my neighbors took me to da city to see a concert their friend was in. It was soooo much fun. Especially since there friend was a hot british college kid. And he had a brother. hehehe..lol jk. Anywayz they were rlly rlly nice. Like honest to god, the nicest people I've ever met. The concert probably isn't one you would expect. Philharmonic concert. As in classical. To most people, it wouldn't seem to be the best way to spend your Saturday night, but it gets me connections with my violin so I'm happy. After the concert, we went around the corner to Uno's, and hung around there for HOURS. And I mean hours. We left at about 1 in the morning. I didn't get home until about 2 in the morning. Which is why I'm soo tired. I had to get up for church, cuz I told the choir I'd play violin for them. It was fun and all, but I have pretty bad headache now and waaay too much homework.

Blahhhhhh

Today sux...I can't move my arm...I can't move my head much either.....arghhhh!!!

JCLORD

After my violin lesson, we stopped at a gas station, and this guy totally cut us off. We were like =O HOW RUDE!! And then when he left, I saw the license plate: JCLORD. THAT explains a lot. lol.

Running

Today I decided that I'm going to try and run on days I don't have gym. I usually try to make that into a habit, but it never lasts long. Except for one summer, I ran every day. I was very proud of myself. But let's see how long this one lasts. I think it'll be good and try to get rid of my asthma-like thing. It's not asthma, but I've been get of short of breath every time I try to do any type of excersizing...or play the flute for that matter.... That's been happening for two years now, ever since I got pnuemonia three times in a row. That was veryveryveryvery bad winter. lol.

Yesterday we got lots and lots of new music in ripyo. It was fun cuz we didn't play well at all, cuz we were sightreading. So every time we crashed and burned, I turned to Gwen, and went, "Epic FAIL!!" And then we'd laugh. Gooood times. Anywayz, one of the songs we got was the variation to appalacian springs or something. Second violins have 74 measures of rest. It's soooooo BORING!!! I swear it's following me, tho. My brother sang that for something...or at least I think he did, I don't know, if he did, that was a loooooooong time ago. And then in allstate, two years ago, we played that. And now in ripyo. And then today on the way to church, my mom was playing it in the car. And then Steve played it during communion. SKETCHY!!! Come on, what are the chances of that? Neither of them have ever done that before. I would know. lol

Back to the Begining

And I was so excited, cuz I thought I was done with depression. Only this time I actually have a reason to be depressed. Cept one of the reason's doesn't make sense...that one should make me mad or embaressed, but I don't know. It sure didn't make me happy. I don't really want to get into any of it, so yea. Don't give me a hard time.

Me

I just changed my profile picture to one of me. That was before I cut my hair and donated it to Beautiful Lengths. I cut it last spring. My hair's still short and such, but I miss my long hair. Funny cuz when I cut it, I was sick of it.

Jacket

I've had this jacket for what, a year? maybe? And today I broke the zipper. I can still zip it up...sometimes... I find it funny, but it's my only zip-up. And come on, nobody else I know has this jacket. Blues with stars and stripes. Very unique. Just like me LOL!!

Airhead

Today my friend had an airhead, so we were doing that thing where you shake it, and it all goes to one side of the wrapper. Her brother told her that the color would go to one side, but that didn't happen. It was pretty funny though. We were doing it all through math and history... I mean we were SOOO paying attention. ;)

Angel

Every time a bell wings, an angel gets its wings. I've watched that movie every Christmas for as long as I can remember. Kinda sad but hey, it has a good message to it. Even if it gets boring after the first few times.

Anyway, I just read a letter from my grandmother. She's losing her eyesight, but she's still trying everything to keep it. I'm proud of her. I hope when I'm her age, I still have her kind of spirit. And she listed all these foods that are good for your eyes. And yes, carrots was one.

And today, my friend actually got me a soda. I'm very proud of him. But now I have to get a penguin for him. He's jealous of Parker.

Concert

Today I had a ripyo concert. I have so many stories all of a sudden. Reperatory orchestra had to be there at about noon, but the actual concert didn't start until three. We had a rehearsal until one, and then two hours to do nothing. So in the beginning, there was a couple of u hanging around the piano, having a debate on who could play best. Nick so won. He could play Super Mario Bros. That's all he could play though.Ok, that was a lie. Filiz definitely won. She could actually play more than one song. She's really really good! I'm kind of jealous cuz I quit. Oh well. At this point I could probably teach myself to play anything on the piano. The problem is time. Someone slap me before I go on a rant about that. And we were also trying to remember how to play Heart and Soul. There are two songs everyone can play on a piano: Chopsticks and Heart and Soul. But none of us could remember how it goes. How sad is that?

And then we went outside, and got yelled at because "There's a performance going on, you have to be quiet." Isn't it obvious we know that? We're all dressed up.

And then we went back inside and there were these two guys. They had a Broadway book. I have the same exact one, it's awesome. Well, one guy was playing the piano, and the other guy was singing. They were good, and the guy who was singing was such a Broadway singer. So I took a video of him. I'm good at making it look like I'm not taping it. It's a talent. :)

And then there was an incident with the trombone player. I swear this kid looks exactly like this other kid I know, Jaime, who's really annoying. They look alike and act alike, I swear to god their twins. Anyway, this kid totally diserved what hit him...literally. There was a circle of kids playing spoons, cuz that's our tradition. And this trombone player is playing really loudly right next to them. Like ear-shattering loud. So they ask him to stop, but he keeps playing, so they try to stick jeans in the bell. And I guess the trombone hit him in the head or the neck or something, cuz he started bawling. I'm standing there, trying really hard to laugh, because Jaime would've had the same reaction.

And then five minutes before we are supposed to go on stage, like we are right next to the stage, far away from the practice room we were just in, some of my friends realized they couldn't find their music, so I had to run all the back and forth to get my music for them. I have pnuemonia induced asthma, so I couldn't breath as I walked on stage. There wasn't a chair for my seat either. I'm like "aww come on. First stand and this is what I get." I sorted it out, won a chair, and we played awesomely...that's a word right?

Parker (Continued)

All day my mom has been hiding Parker. It's like I'm five again. She used to do that with my other stuffed animals. But hey, it's a break from chores so I ain't complainin. But just now my I copied Parker, and then scanned the picture onto the computer. It's on my blog now, under the latest poll. It's not the best picture, but it's fun scanning 3-D things. And it would've taken me forever to get the pictures onto my camera, put the pictures on the computer downstairs, put the ones of Parker on a flash drive, and brought them to this computer. But that's Parker, hand-knitted by one of my friends. Red and white instead of black and white. You have to imagine the colors. You all have imaginations....RIGHT?

Parker

I just had a small birthday party gathering at the library. Perfect place for a party, don't you think? Instead of cake, jello. It's yummy, ok!?!?! And then my friend gave me Parker, the penguin. He's a knited penguin and he's red and he's very cute. Ya know, I'm gonna get a picture of him on the computer. Eventually. As soon as possible.

iPod

As you all know...or at least you should know, yesterday was my birthday, and I got the new iPod nano chromatic. Turns out this other kid I know, whose birthday was also yesterday, got the same exact gift. The only difference: his is red, and mine is green. And he didn't get a case along with it. Don't you just love irony?

Birthday

Today is my birthday. Yay me. And for all of you whose birthday isn't today, A VERY MERRY UNBIRTHDAY!! TOO YOOUUUU!!!! I swear that was the best part out of that whole movie. Yesterday I got my first birthday presents from one of my brothers. Howl's Moving Castle, and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Both classics. SAVE FERRIS!! Goooood times, goooooooooood times. I also got two of the three things I wanted most. The two I happened to think I would most likely get. Coldplay's Viva la Vida cd, and the new iPod nano chromatic. So now I'm downloading iTunes, cuz the bean didn't come with that, and it's taking forEVA!! I'm gonna be here all night. And then tomorrow I'll be a zombie. But at least I'll have an iPod with music on it.

Nutella

I finally convinced my mom to buy nutella. yum. thats gonna be gone by tomorrow...hehehe.;)

Election Day

Today is election day in the USA. Obama or Mcain. I am not choosing sides on my blog, mostly cuz I don't want to get into politics on my blog. I'm not really into politics but I do pay enough attention. So today is election day, and tomorrow is my birthday!! So as I like to say, I get a whole day off from school just for me....and the president. lol.

Fall

This morning I totally forgot that it was daylight savings. You know, FALL BACK! So I was all like crap why isn't mom up yet? She needs to drive me somewhere really realy soon. And then when I went to go wake her up, I looked at her clock that said 8 instead of 9 and I remembered. I'm mad though cuz I could've slept in another hour, but instead I got all ready for nothing. Sad Sarah

Last night was pretty fun. Party!! woo. We played manhunt basically the whole time, and then when we stopped to play truth or dare it got really boring. Oh well. I'll live. :D

November

Last night was Halloween. I went to a party. It was pretty fun. Then we went trick or treating. You are never too old to trick or treat dammit! I got a fair amount of candy. I don't know exactly how much, I was too lazy to count. I was a witch, but nobody could tell because the hat was left at the party. That wasn't my fault *coughlukecough*. And now it's the next day, and it's November. My favorite month. 4 days!! YAY!!

This morning was "Bring a Friend Day" at Ripyo. I brought my tall friend. We had fun. She decided Nick wasn't THE Nick. Oh well. He's still hot. In other ripyo news, I got first stand!! I'm so happy I got that. I wanted it soo much and I worked really hard for it too. If I didn't get it I would've been so disappointed. The only sad thing is I'm second seat now instead of first so I have to turn pages. Wah. Hello Photo Copier. Very nice to meet you finally. ;)

Computer

I've been on the computer for fifteen minutes, and I now remember why I haven't been going on as much lately. IT'S SO BORING!! Nobody's on anymore...I need to find something interesting to do on the computer if it's the last thing I do...lol I'll probably forget about that in about five minutes. Yay short attention span!

Lunch

Yesterday and today was pretty fun as far as lunch goes....

Yesterday:

I was all sad before lunch because I didn't have a lunch cuz I forgot it at home, and I'm broke so I couldn't buy a lunch. I'm sitting in Lang + Lit and the intercom goes "Mrs. D*******, do you have Sarah *****? Her lunch is in the office. I was so happy I jumped up and ran for the door. The teacher had to grab my arm and tell me to get it on my way to lunch. Then on the way to the office I found a dime, and I was like "YES! I have 10 cents to my name!" And then my friend needed 10 cents to buy lunch, so I was just like "I guess you can have it..." When you're broke cuz someone stole the money in your wallet, any amount of money makes you happy. And then some kid who's in my spanish and math class walked up and was all, "You can have my lollipop if I can have your cheeze-its" I was like Yay free lollipop. I wasn't in the mood for cheeze-its so it was allll good.

Today:

I was walking in my locker to get some things for class, and talking to one of my friends when my boyfriend passed by. He didn't say hi to me, so I kinda stole his lunch from his hand, and he didn't notice right away. It was really funny. And then I had third lunch for the first time. It was so much fun cuz all of my friends are in third lunch. Although I kinda forgot about my backpack when I went to the school store...oops.

Biffle

Happy Labour Day, New Zealanders! Sorry, I just looked at a calendar and noticed that. And what did I do on my labour day...heheheh. Good times. Anyway, today after school I hung out with my boyfriend, my best friend and her boyfriend until they all had to go. I was sad after that. But then I hung out with some other friends, one of whom is my new biffle. It was fun. We went to our old school, and pretended we went there. Yea right. Most people believed us. It was funny.

Drummer Boy

This morning I was at ripyo, and one of my friends mentioned that I hadn't asked Nick yet. I'm like super shy and everything, and I really didn't want. All my other friends there were like "what? ask who what?" So I told them the story of Lincoln Woods and how I met three guys there, one of whom was named Nick. And that we think Lincoln Woods Nick is the Drummer Nick. Same person. So there were all like "I'LL ASK!!" So one of them did: "Hey you! Drummer boy, what's your name?" "Nick" "Do you know her?" "No" "You should" And that's when they scared him off. So these are the choices: He isn't the same person, or he just doesn't remember me. My friends at ripyo are convinced he just doesn't remember him. One of my friends will not let it go, and by the end of this year she is sure we'll all be best friends. Haha. Who knows what the year will bring.

Happy

Yesterday my day was going very badly because my wallet fell out of my pocket, or someone stole it, so now I'm officially broke among other things. And then the homecomeing football game was last night, and I didn't really want to go because of previous experiences, but it was homecoming so I went. And I had an awesome time, I don't feel like telling the world why I'm happy. :)

Strawberry Quick

"well there is this chain mail all my friends sent about a drug called strawberry quick and u know how its supposed to look like strawberry poprocks well me and my friend got sepperated from the rest of the group so we went to buy candy and we bought some strawberry pop rocks and put them out of the wrapper into a plastic bag so we joined up with r friends and pretended we found it on the ground and started to eat it and all my friends started freaking out" That was something my friend did. And I'm awesome so I'm going to follow leader. For those of you who don't know what strawberry quick is, it's a type of meth. Spread the awareness!!

Chocolate

I really wanted chocolate...wow like an hour ago. Time flys when your...doing it...lol just kidding. I was reading a chat I had on aim with one of my friends. But anyway, I really really really wanted chocolate. So, I was like mom do we have any chocolate? And she was like no. And I was like WHAT!? Chocolate is a girl's best friend. It always need to be on hand. But we didn't have any, so I settled for coffee milk, which is almost just as good.

Soccer

I'm supposed to be at a soccer game right now. The boys varsity game. My best friend wanted me to come, and I was all ready to go, but then she remembered that she has a cross country dinner tonight. She can't miss it; it's a bit important....never mind, guess not. Another one of my friends who is on the cross country team is blowing it off. Tut tut. She should know better. Anyway, back to the first person. The last time we went to a soccer game together we decided that we were sad we quit all those years ago, and that we shall go to a soccer camp. I do miss soccer. It's my favorite sport in the whole wide world. I love everything about it. But the damn club in this town is terrible.

Aladin

I watched Aladin the other day, so now I'm in love with Genie again. "Jafar, Jafar, he's our man, if he can't do it GREAT!!" and "I'm history! No, I'm mythology! Oh, I don't care what I am, I'm FREEEE!!" I love Genie. He's mine. And so is Nick. Especially if he's THE Nick. But only if he's single. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! Be Single!! I love how I'm so open about it cuz he doesn't go to our school. I wonder if he'll ever stumble upon this and read it...

Just Another Face

Today I was having another one of those deep conversations with one of my friends. Those conversations like what happens when you die, and stuff like that. This particular conversation was about people, and how they act differently around different people. In other words, when your with friends you act one way and when your with parents you act another way. Sort of like the different parts of you. There is no person besides myself who knows everything there is to know about me. The same is true about anybody. Think about it. You might know bits and pieces of other people's lives, but you don't know everything about that person. Just like no one knows everything about me...

Cold

I cross quite a few streets on my walk home. I crossed one of them. I looked both ways, like a good pedestrian should, and no cars were there. So I started to cross. When I got to the far side of the double yellow line, a car came speeding towards me. Like way to speed! So that was my near death experience of the day.

I continued my walk. While cutting through the shaws parking lot as I often do because it's quicker, I remember the one reason I don't like fall. The cold usually doesn't bother me, except when I'm not wearing a hat or ear warmers or something. I get sort of an earache when a cold wind rushed past my ears. I need to start wearing my awesome hat around town. :)

Church

This morning I went to church as I usually do. Well actually, now I don't usually because I'm helping out with sunday school and that's during church so...But anyway, Father was talking, finished his thought, and paused. Right when he paused some kid started wailing. "WAHHHHHHHH!!!" It was sooo funny. When the kid stopped, Father started talking again. It was beautiful.

My parents are kind of creeping me out because my dad asked me to wink at him like twenty minutes ago, and they are still talking about it. His theory is that if you are left handed, like me, you will wink with your right eye first, and vice versa. SERIOUSLY GUYS! IT ISN'T THAT INTERESTING OF A TOPIC!!!

In other news, I'm trying to teach myself how to speak italian online. My daddy can help cuz his first language is in fact Italian. I decided to study it in spanish class cuz I'm in spanish 1 and it's waaaaay too easy. So I'm alwayz bored.

Cruise

Yesterday at Ripyo the conductor told us a very interesting, yet familiar story. The story was how he interpreted one of the pieces we are playing. The first part was this big cruise ship, and the basses are the motor, and violins are the actual boat. Yay! I'm a cruise ship. The next part was us on the actual boat and how much fun we're having. Then the music is slow because we kinda forgot to bring the wife and kids. HUSBAND and kids in my case. So then you jump off the boat and take the train back home. That's the next part, the train. And when you get there you beg your wife/husband that you're really sorry, it'll never happen again, and please come back with you. So then you all go back to the cruise and you all have a fun time. This story seems familiar to me because when I was in third grade my mom went on a cruise without us. The only difference is, she didn't come back to take us with her. Not like she could though. I don't think they'd actually let you back on the boat.

Party

Last night I went to party with friends. A birthday party. We didn't do much besides eat and hang out, but it was fun all the same. And we got party favors. My first pair of dangly earrings. I've had my studs forever now. So now I have a total of two pairs of earrings. Good thing my birthday's coming up. Lots more hopefully. And blue nail polish. A very dark nail. I just painted my nails so I'm all like "ahh need to be careful!!"

FALL!!

Fall is my favorite season, and not just because my birthday happens to be in this season, although that is a part of it. No, I like it best because of the leaves changing color, and the general smell of the air. The crispyness. I love it. And lately I haven't really been able to enjoy, cuz I've been so out of it. My mom calls it mood swings, I call it depression. Why depressed? Quite plainly: Life Sucks. But it's a lot more than that. That's just the tip of the iceberg you could say. But I don't want to go underwater and explain it all for you, cuz that could create problems for me. I don't like telling people things they don't generally need to know. Two weeks ago I said I was fine. Now I say I'm fine. And this time I think I mean it. I hope I do at least. But anyway, I'm back from the most shallow point of my exsistence. And I'm kinda mad at the whole, the music school is having open house today. Becuase of that I didn't get to talk to Nick, and see if he is THE Nick. But goddammit he's hot. And he plays the drums. :)

Tomorrow

I'm referring to the song from the musical Annie, not the literal meaning of the day after today. I refer to it because today was much better than yesterday was. For starters, I actually saw people. YAY! CIVILIZATION! Nothing like super interesting happening. It was just enjoyable. You know. One of those days where no one thing makes it a good day, just all the little things. Sometimes, I think the little things count more than the big things. Got that from a movie....what was the name? I don't know. But it was funny. One of my friends totally burst my bubble when he reminded me that I had homework due tommorow. I was like "I just had a study too!" It was very sad. But it's all good. And I just won a purple pen! Woo! I'm gonna use it for my world history homework.

Long Weekend

What a crappy weekend! I went to Paris. Wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be. It never is, its just that I was pissed off Friday. And then today, I had so much damn homework, I couldn't hang out with anyone. Sometimes I like school better than the weekend just because I see people. My life sucks, and it's really sad.

Paris

Paris was same old, same old. Just hanging out with Grammie. Playing Hearts, eatin pasta. My mom as usual, was trying to do everything for my grandma. Like she owned the place. Grammie was annoyed by it, as usual. But, I mean? who wouldn't be? But I can see where Mom's coming from.

Sunny Just Isn't Sunny Anymore

Welcome Back, Depression! It's been, what? a week. Damn thing just loves me too much. So yea, I'm depressed again, and this time I blame my mother. It's like her favorite pastime. Ruin Sarah's life. YAY! Sucky long weekend ahead. Help would be much appreciated.

Darling

I hung out with one of my friends. We're kinda weird together. Ya know...well actually, you probably don't...We have weird nicknames for each other that nobody else would get. We have waaaaay too many inside jokes. If we ever got into a fight, I'd like shoot myself. She knows way too much about me. She could ruin my life. But then again, I could ruin hers... But anyway, we were walking out of the school and I thought she was holding the door for me. I wasn't really paying attention, cuz I was on the phone. So I said, "Thank you darling." As soon as the words were out of my mouth, I realized who was holding the door for me. It wasn't her, it was some guy I don't know too well. AWKWARD!! And then we saw a car that was really hot, and we were gonna say something, but then we realized we knew who was driving it. And just to make one my friends mad: We were talking bout him later, things that nobody should really know...

Lunch

This morning I forgot my lunch at home. I didn't call my mom to bring it in, cuz I figured my brother would be kind enough to do it for her. But I wasn't really counting on it, cuz my brother isn't always the nicest guy to his little sis. You know how sibling relationships are...unless your an only child...then you don't know. So I bought myself a lunch. Right after I bought my lunch, my brother came over with my lunch from home. I had two lunches. It was awesome!!

Door

Today I was leaving one of my classrooms. I opened the door and someone walked right into it. Oops! When I told my friend, she was disappointed in me because it was accidental. So, to make up for it, I slapped one of my other friends for no paticular reason. Aren't I kind and loving?

The word

If anybody was watching family guy last night, you know what I am talking about. I thought it'd be huge in the news. A discovery in the aviary variety. BA-BA-BA-BIRD BIRD BIRD, BIRD IS THE WORD!! lol funny episode...which is weird cuz I usually don't like family guy.

Stairs

Yesterday I was on the phone with one of my friends, while I was walking down the stairs to give my mom my birthday list. It's in a month, YAY!! Anyway, I was wearing slippers, and the cleaners put something on the wood floors, that makes it slippery. And so I fell down the stairs. Dropped the phone, and it turned off, and I bruised my lower back. It hurts! :'( sadsad. Actually it's not that bad. I've been through waay worse.

Heart

I was really bummed over something pretty stupid over the past week. Yesterday at the boys varsity soccer game, I saw something in the sky, and me and my friend think it's a sign. That I'm going to meet someone new or get a boyfriend soon or something. I don't really care that I'm single, its just that when you go to a football game or something, it seems like everyone is a happy couple except for you. Litterally. I was standing at the football game last night, and all of my friends were in lovebird mode. And I'm just standing there akwardly. I'm getting ahead of myself. Anyway, the thing I saw in the sky was a part in the clouds. That part was shaped as a heart. And it was only there for about a minute. I wish I had my camera with me, but I didn't. But me and Jen thought something would happen soon. So I went to the football game, and nothing. As I said before, it was really akward. I'm just like yea...don't have a boyfriend...And then this morning, the percussionist came in. None of us had met him yet. He is soooo HOT. I found out his name, and I think that he might be one of those kids from the last day of summer (those who were involved know who I mean). My memory of that kid at the beach is kind of hazy, but they seem similar, and they do have the same name. But I don't know. It's hard to explain. All of a sudden, I wanted to sit up straight, and play my violin the best I could. I think some of my friends know what I mean. Or at least I hope they do. The only thing is, since I met him at orchestra, he could live anywhere in the state. That part's a bit depressing.

Food

My bunny also knows where his normal bunny food. In the hutch by his cage. So today when my brother left it open, my bunny hopped in, and helped himself to some hay and pellets. Soo cute.

Blah Day II

Maybe this is just a blah week...

Blah Day

Today was definitely a blah day. Most of it I can't explain cuz its too personal, and I don't want people to know. But there are some things I can tell you. I got innundated in homework today, so like no free time. I brought my brother's lunch to school instead of mine. And I hate all of the things he eats for lunch, so my lunch consisted of marshmallows. MARSHMALLOWS! Marshmallows are good and all but they don't fill you up at all. I was starving allllllll day. Ugh. Don't bother asking about the part I don't want to tell. You won't get the answer you would want. Well, that was my sucky day. How was yours?

Bunny

My bunny is being cute again! He got really lazy lately and wouldn't step out of his cage, and now he's running all over the place again. He did the cutest thing yesterday. You know how bunnys like carrots? Well he knows where the carrots are, so when my dad opened the fridge to get his beverage of choice, my bunny jumped inside. He wouldn't get out until my dad got him a carrot.

Sad Eyes

Omg it was really funny. My mom noticed that I was wearing eye liner, and she's like I don't like it. You shouldn't be wearing make up. Lol she was the only person who didn't like it. Tons of people said they liked it, and if you want I can name them. But only if you want cuz I'm not gonna like starting naming people unless I have to. Anyway, and then like five minutes later I was like why don't you like them, and she was like they make your eyes look sad, and I was like what do you mean? and she was like like depressed, and I was like well, what do you think would make them look happy? and she didn't answer me...Wow that was the longest sentence on the face of the planet. Not really, but I used the word "like" a good ten times. I'm kinda hyper. SUGAR HIGH!! or is it...?

Make up

I've never really bought make up for myself before. I don't know. I don't think my mom really approves of me wearing make up. But come on. I think I'm old enough. Sides, it's not like I'm gonna wear a ton and look like a total slut. That's not me. Just lip gloss, and eyeliner. Maybe mascara. Depends on my mood. Ya know. But I know you must be like holy shit she's never bought make up before isn't that kinda weird!? Well, yea, I see your point but it's not really my fault. I've never really felt the need for it....actually I still don't feel the need for it, but why not? It makes me look prettier. That's the point isn't it? In other news, my weekend was sooooooooooooooooooooooooo freakin boring. And my mom said if I practice violin, and do better in math, I can get a phone. Yay!! Phone! But I'll still have to pay for. I don't get a very good paycheck...hehehe.

Smokin

Yesterday I was babysitting the kids across the street right when they got home from school. We were hanging out. Made some popcorn. Played outside. Came back inside. Watched tv in the basement. And then the fire alarm went off. No one was smoking, as the title implies. Supposedly there was an actual fire. So I'm trying to get the kids out of the house, and find the fire at the same time. Unfortuneatly they were following me. I told them to go outside, but of course they wouldn't without me. But it was okay, because I figured out what was causing the fire alarm to go off pretty fast. The microwave was on, and nothing was in it. There wasn't a fire, it was just smoking. So I turned off the microwave, and soon after that the fire alarm stopped. It was weird though. If the microwave was still on from the popcorn, it should've created a fire long before that. The first thing we did was make popcorn so....why was the microwave randomly on? Answers are accepted. :D

Balloon

I was gonna post something about how crappy my day was, but I kinda forgot what I was going to say. All I know is, I have some sort of sinus infection or something, cuz my nose won't stop running, and my head feels like a balloon. So Dr. Ryan told me I have a sinus infection. I don't know how reliable that is, though, because Dr. Ryan is only seventeen. And he's not really a doctor... Also, my back hurts, because my parents made me play my violin for 80 minutes straight. They wouldn't even let me stop to do homework with a friend. I'm very alone. It's kind of depressing. Sadsad. Oh well. I'll get over it. ....Eventually.... Anyway. I was playing the sleeping beauty waltz like twenty times over. I love that song. It's pretty. It's kinda funny though. I had to learn it for allstate two years ago, and I totally failed. Now I have to learn again, and I can already play it almost perfectly. :D

Picolo

I am now officially debt free!! My mom said it would take at least a year, but it's only been 10 months. Close to a year, I know, but it isn't a year, so that makes me really really happy. Anywayz, I probably didn't tell you about it, because a bought before this blog exsisted. Seems so long ago. But right around my birthday, I decided that I want a picolo. I play the flute, so why not a picolo? Turns out, the place we got my flute from was having a picolo sale. So my mom bought it for me. I just had to pay her back when I could. This thing cost $272! And all year I've been taking some of my babysitting money to pay her back with. For about a month or so, I've only $25 left to pay. How awesome is that? Last night I babysat from 7 to midnight. And now, I'm debt free. It's a wonderful day. Actually, I don't know how wonderful cuz I have a lot of chores to do, but whatever. I'm debt free.

Short Term Memory Loss

Maybe my mom's just getting older. Well duh, she is. But still. She's always forgoten things, but nothing like this. When she got home, she FORGOT to yell at me. She finally remembered like three hours later. Wow, Mom, wow. Anywayz, she was just mad because "I didn't tell her where I would be" and "I've never mentioned these people before." Well, Mom, I called at least five times before I actually talked to you, so you can't say I didn't try. And Mom, nothing says a child has to tell you everything. But I know you've heard of these people. I've hung out with them before! I don't really see what the big deal is anyway. It's not like I was jumping on a bus to hop the border.

Hanging

I was hanging out with some friends for a couple hours after school. Just hanging out around town. Ya know, the usual. My mom wasn't home, so I couldn't exactly tell her right away. Finally I tried her cell, to see if it was on for once in her life. It was, and she got kinda mad. She's was like "Go home. We'll talk there," in that mad mother voice that tells you you're in big trouble. I got home, and then she got home, and she wasn't mad at all. It was really weird.

Boyfriend

I was hanging out today with my friend and her boyfriend. At first I was like, ah third wheel awkward! But it wasn't too bad. I mean, hey, tricylces roll pretty well all by themselves. But it was a little awkward at first. Mostly cuz I'd never met the guy but whatever. I enjoyed myself.

All That I've Got

I was just hanging out with my friend, and she got the song All That I've Got by The Used stuck in my head. It's a good song, so no unenjoyable, just annoying when you sing the chorus 20 times in a row. Also we started another blog with that title...I think the address is allthativegot13.blogspot.com but I could be completely wrong. The backgrounds black if that's any help. So check it out some time or other, when we actually have posts on it. Right now, it's kinda empty, but I'm gonna work on that one.

Sunday

What a boring Sunday. I did nothing alllllllllll day long! Lol... that's all I have to say really. I'm such a freak!

Dance

Last night there was a dance at school. It was really really boring. It was really hot and smelly inside, so I didn't really want to dance long. And my brother was there so everytime I saw him I was like HIDE ME!!!! It was creepy though. Like other people's brothers you are all used to and their cool, so you don't really care when they grind or whatever you catch them doing. But my brother....CREEPY!!! So after awhile, I just hung out outside with friends.

Retreat!!

Last night, and today we have a retreat for the orchestra I'm in at the NEW building. No more going to creepy schools that your grandma went to! WOO! But anywayz, it was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much fun!! We were playing random songs, and the time went by so fast. There is a new conductor for our group, and he is awesome! When we skipped a rest he said it was like running a red light. Which kinda makes sense. It's gonna be an awesome year!!

Baby

GOOD NEWS WORLD! I went to my violin teacher with the five violins I'm choosing from. My mom said right away that I wasn't going to tell her which one I wanted. Ironically enough, my violin teacher picked my top two favorites right away. And then picked my baby!! This calls for a GINORMOUS party! Bring out the champagne and cookie!!! NOWWWW!!!

Hurricane

Last night I had a sleepover, so I missed everything that happened at my house. I always miss all the action!! No fair! Anyways, a hurricane came through last night. It wasn't that bad or anything. Just pouring rain, and really windy. Like really really really windy. Well, duh! It's a freakin hurricane! I came home this morning and I almost didn't notice what was wrong with the picture. It was bright and sunny and everything looks awesome, and then I looked up. There's a freakin tree on the roof of my house!

Family

Ah, the beauty of family reunions...*gag*! It actually isn't that bad. My aunt and uncle are visiting. I haven't seen them in forever!! It's just that it's funny as my aunt pointed out. They'll be here one day, and one day only, and they are both sick, so they will get all of us sick and leave. But I don't want to get sick, so it isn't that funny....PUREL!!!!

Blogger's Block

Okie, the reason I haven't been writing in awhile is because I have blogger's block. It's like my life got like super boring. Okay, that's a lie. I just thought of something. I'm in the process of getting a new violin. It's awesome. I have like six violins in my house right now. That's what, like $5000, $6000 worth? I'm not keeping them all. The one I own right now I'm going to sell back to the person I bought it from. Four of the other violins are going to be given back to where they came from. It's a trial thing from some company far far away. But I have to give them back in like a week. But I get to keep one of them. The first violin I tried is actually the one I want. I know I like it because I instinctively called it "my baby." AND NO THAT IS NOT WEIRD, MIKI!!! My second favorite has a nice tone, but it's super hard to tune, and knowing my tuning abilities I'm probably not going to get that one. My third favorite isn't purty looking, but it has a nice tone. My fourth favorite I just don't like. And the fifth one I hate with a burning passion because it would be pretty if there weren't so many scratches and things of that sort. I'll keep you posted on that.

Vacation :D

Best week eva! Okay not really, but ya know. My mom took me out to the cottage we went every year. Someone really needs to get an interior designer. That cottage is a perfect example of the 70s. Everything in that house is at least 30 years old. But it's down the street from the beach so it's not too bad. The first couple days we hung out at the beach. The third day we met some friends at a really nice beach a couple towns over. We had lots of fun. Although I could've gone with a little less keep away...Then yesturday we were just gonna drive around and stop wherever. We ended up mini golfing and kayaking all day. But that was cool, cuz it was my first time kayaking, and it took forever to convince my mom to let us go. But kayaking is soooooo much fun, and isn't hard at all. Then today we cut the vacation short and came back home. The rest of the time wasn't supposed to be nice beach weather anywayz.

Beach

I had sooooooooooo much fun at the beach with some friends today. One of them was the one that I saw Momma Mia. So today, the songs were still stuck in our heads, and we were very spontaneous as to burst out into the same song at the same time! That's what we did while jumping waves in the water. While we were on the sand we played indian poker and bet cheeze its. And for that I am the BIG WINNA!! WOOOOOOOOO! PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Momma Mia

Last night I went to see Momma Mia with my mom and my friend. STOP LAUGHING DAMMIT! Yea, I can just here you people laughing at me. But you know what? It was fun. I had a good time. Yay! I can be a movie critic! It was one of the movies that is stupidly funny, but amazingly a good movie. Not like the crappy musicals such as High School Musical. It's one of those movies where you go insane from laughing so much. It was a hilarious movie. I loved it, and I'd go to see it again. Anywayz, ever since I went to watch it, I have one of the songs stuck in my head. DANCING QUEEN! YOUNG AND SWEET ONLY SEVENTEEN! Sorry. Had to get that out of my system.

Midnight Snack

Last night I was playing video games, and then I stopped because I was tired. I tried sleeping, but I couldn't because I was hungry. Like really really hungry. So I go downstairs for a midnight snack. My parents were still up watching the olympics, and I didn't even bother trying to be quiet and sneaky. I was down there a good ten minutes and neither of them noticed. Reminds of the time when I was little that I came downstairs to raid the ribbon candy. I took a red piece and I started laughing. I couldn't stop, so I laughed into a pillow so my parents wouldn't hear me. They didn't, and they didn't even notice the red stain on the back of the white couch pillow until a few years later. Hilarious!

Weekend

In one word I could describe my weekend as depressing. It started on Saturday with a funeral. Which was really weird because my vice principal was there. It's one of those people you don't expect to see over the summer. Like "Damn! I thought I was done with you!" But I found out the perfect way to suck up if I ever get in trouble. My mom always make a coffee cake for the family when someone dies. So the vice principal tried it and said it was "Phenominal." So if I ever get in trouble I can just get him my mom's coffee cake and get out of trouble. XD!! ANYwayz, after the funeral, we drove up to a lake that we go to every year. This year was different though. It was supposed to be a kind of family reunion thing for a memorial mass for my mom's parents. But only some cousins showed up. So I ended up going to dinner, church, and a cemetary with and for people I've never met before. What a weird weekend.

Henna!?

Last night my friend threw a sleepover party. OMG SO MUCH FUN!!!!!!!! And then today we all went to the pool and hung out there for a couple hours. And we did henna!? Amazing! I thought my parents were gonna freak out, but they didn't. They were like cool. Okie, this post isn't so fun fun fun cuz I just got a new computer so I'm freaking out about that right now. Well, as far as a person who just woke up like twenty minutes ago can freak out.

Scrape

Yesterday I was hanging out with a group of friends, and we were basically biking all over the place. We went to Cumby's for those tasty 32 oz slushies you can get for 79 cents. Then we went to a local candy store, and bought tons of candy. Well I didn't, I bought one of those lollipops you see five year olds carrying in old movies. You know, the ones that are the size of those five year olds' heads. But my friends bought a ton of candy. So then we were hanging out in the basement eating all of this candy, and playing videogames while a thunderstorm went by. By the time the storm was over we were pretty sugar high. So I guess that can explain why we were trying to see if you can walk a straight line while dizzy from spinning in circles. My friends did it pretty well, but what I did was hilarious. I spun too fast for too long, so when i tried to walk the straight line I couldn't even get on the line, let alone walk straight. Instead I walke to the other side of the line, and fell over in a puddle. I think I was laughing the hardest. But anwayz, I got a smallish scrape on my knew, and it was bleeding like crazy! So I washed it off and it was fine, but now my legs kinda stiff. Stupid scrape. I blame my friends!

7 Hours

Since we first started showing off my nephew, lots of people have come to visit him. My best friend, some of my parent's friends, and my brother's friend. And seven hours ago my nephew left, taking the seven hour car drive home. They had left a half hour after his naptime was supposed to take place, so he was very cranky when we said our goodbyes. Screaming, and crying, and only quiet when you gave him something new to play with every two minutes. Which none of us was about to do. Five minutes after he left, I realized that I was listening for his screaming. He's only been gone seven hours and I miss him soooooooooooooooooooooo much. But at least we got lots and lots of very very cute pictures of him. In other news, one of my parent's friends that came to visit my nephew this morning gave me a very nice offer to meet a professional violinist in the fall. I'll keep you posted about that. In other words, I'm going to forget to tell you people about that for about a month.

Showing Off

The original plan to showing off my nephew was something like run to people houses and shout that this is my nephew and run away. But when my mother and I showed him off last night, it took a much more civilized manner. I know what your thinking. Sarah? Civilized? Never! And your right. I'm not usually civilized, unless I've taken on being shy again, or I just have nothing to say. These people were mostly my mom's friends anywayz. I was just helping out with the car seat and what not. We went to this one house, I guess you could call the son my friend, but...yea. His mom was trying to steal my nephew. I told him my wrist hurt from carrying my nephew a lot, and he said I was weak. But he couldn't even hold a baby. It's not that hard people! You support the butt, and support the head! But whatever. We are going to show him off more today. It'll be fun.

Resaurant

Yesterday we drove four hours so my very very cute nephew can meet his great grandmother for the very first time. Did I use the word very too much in that sentence? Oh well! It was supposed to be a surprise, but one of my aunts told her about it. But she was very happy when she saw my nephew. Then we all took my nephew to the first restaurant he's ever been to. He was very good as far as babies go with all the screeching. But he was cranky because he wouldn't nap beforehand. He made some new friends at the restaurant, as in the waitresses. He was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beach

Today we took my nephew to the beach. We didn't bother going to the nice beach that's a couple towns away, we just went to the crappy polluted beach right here in town. We did a clown car thing because my dad actually joined us at the beach. I had to ride my bike there because there wasn't enough room in the car. But I guess I could've squeezed in with the beach toys in the back of the car. Anywayz, I rode my bike there and met the rest of my family at the beach. It was my nephew's first beach expierence. He'd never been to a beach in general let alone the ocean. His daddy took him down to the water because he's immobile so far. He was just sitting on the edge, perfectly content. Then his daddy carried him out farther. He enjoyed fine enough. He didn't like it when the waves splashed his face. On the sand he played with the beach toys his Grammie gave him. And an hour or two later, he was bored of the beach and we took him home. He's soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nephew

My nephew came to visit for the week. He came today and he's soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My mom gave him some beach toys that she wrapped in tissue paper. The tissue paper was almost as exciting as the toys. As one of my friends said, "Well of course it is. Is it a tissue or is it paper!?" But anywayz I'll keep you posted on the excitement. So far I'm depressed cause my nephew didn't have the time to try out the kiddie pool I cleaned for him. That took five whole minutes of hard labour!

Mansions

My friend and I went to visit a mansion today. One of those old mansions that was built one hundred years ago and nobody lives in it anymore. You just look at the house and the yard and feel really poor. But my friend and I decided to buy it. Where are we gonna get the money for that anyway? Hmmm. Donations are accepted!=D

Earings

All my life I'd been goin with the magnetic earing thing. Some kids get their ears pierced at 2 months. I think that's terrible personally. Don't pierce a two month old's ears!! One mother once said after I commented on the baby's earings, "She only cried for five minutes!" That's a good thing? Whatever. Magnetic earings. Much better than the clip on things. But you see a lot more clip ons than magnetic. But whatever, if you want fake earings, go with magnetic. They look real and everything. I went with the magnetic earing thing until today. I got my ears pierced today. I took one of my friends with me for moral support, went to the mall, picked out white gold studs, and got my ears pierced. I cried after, and yes I will admit that, I'm better than trying to hide it. Anyway I cried, and I think my mom was like AHHHH WHY'S SHE CRYING. My thought process was more like OMG I GOT MY EARS PIERCED!!!! WOOO!! PARTY!!! CHAMPAGNE AND COOKIES ON THE DOUBLE! Afterwards I told some friends, and one of my old friends was like OMG YOU FINALLY DID IT! My friends are awesome. :D

Braces

Yesturday I was supposed to get my braces off. But the orthodontist decided that I shouldn't because there is a tiny space between two teeth. Who cares? I just want the damn braces off! So another month.

Grounded

Yesturday I got grounded. I don't even know why. It must of been something really really really stupid. My brother wouldn't let me get my toothbrush? I don't know. But I was bored outta my mind yesturday. Head start on the math homework.....yay.....Anyway I forgot to mention the other day. I kicked Matt's ass at burnout twice!!!!! PARTY!!!

Bear

Last night I had people over to play manhunt. Aaron brought over a pink bear that was really really creepy looking. So when my brother came outside to play manhunt with us, I asked him to get matches for us. And then we burned the bear. It was awesome. I got some pictures and some videos. Maybe I'll post them soon.....someone should remind me, I'll forget. Then we were actually playing manhunt which wasn't really manhunt when my brother was in the bushes he got sprayed by a skunk. If you or a sibling have ever expierenced this you know how bad it smells. It's smells like a skunk, but ten times worse!!!!!!!!

Blonde

I had a dumb blonde moment yesturday. Funny cuz I'm not even blonde. Dumb brunette? No brunettes are the smart ones....Sorry my blonde buds, I just don't like the bleach blonde look. UGLY!!!!! Anyway, we are getting our unfinished basement finished. Makes sense right? So the other day I had to vacum down there, and yesturday I had to pull out all the nails and staples and push pins out of the wall with a pair of pliers and a knife. I didn't really need the pliers but you know. Anyway, at first I didn't realize that the knife was a knife. I thought it was like a scraper thingy or something. But it was a knife. I found this out when I was trying to get a push pin out. The pin wouldn't come out so I put my hand around the blade and tried to get it out that way. I dropped the knife in a matter of seconds, because it was hurting my hand. And that was when I realized that it was a knife. Aren't I smart?

Music Freaks

Yesturday, I had nothing to do allllllllllllll day. So I had just started practicing violin. Doing three octave scales, warming up, you know, all yous music freaks. If you are a music freak such as myself, that means you play at least seven instruments, and if you broke your radio, and your mp3 player, and you couldn't get a new one, you'd basically go crazy!!! That seven instrument thing includes singing by the way. Anyway, I was doing the G major scale in front of my window as usual, when I was my boyfriend ride his bike by. He looked at my house, but kept riding. And then for the rest of the fifty minutes I was playing my violin, I couldn't concentrate, because I was thinking about him. It's all his fault!!!! Then while I was playing my piece, it's a gigue or something like that, it's fun to play though. Dynamics are important and ever since I started playing my piano back when I was five or six, I always had the tendency to play softly. I still do that. So my violin teacher wants me to work on playing loudly. So I was playing my piece, when I saw to guys walking down my street. They looked like they were in their thirties, but they turned and looked towards my window while I was playing. I was like ahhh they can hear me. I guess I was playing loud enough....lol.

French Toast

The last thing I did in Georgia was going to a bakery. We met my cousin there, and I ordered the french toast. They were pretty big slices, and there were four of them. My cousin said if I ate the whole thing, she would give me twenty bucks. I was like, oh, I'm so gonna finish this. And my mom's like, "NO!!! You shouldn't've done that!!! If she vomits on the plane I'm sending it to you!" My mom was thinking of past expeirences with my brothers and other cousins of mine. At some ice cream place if you bought 3 shakes, you got the fourth free. And these shakes were large. It didn't work for the smalls. So my cousin wanted that fourth shake. So he downed three shakes. What an idiot. Anyway, I ate 3 pieces of this french toast, and I just couldn't eat anymore. I really don't ahve a huge appetite, but you know. My cousin passed me 20 bucks under the table and said good effort. WOO!

Storm

Two nights ago, we had a bad storm and the power went out and the water main was damaged. Last night, we had a bad storm and some trees fell on the power line. Yup. We went out to dinner last night, and while we were at an Italian resturaunt that had terrible calizones, there was a really bad thunderstorm. The lights were going on and off, a lightpost outside was swinging around it was so windy. We got back at about nine last night. By that time the storm was over and the power was out. We wanted to report the power outage so we would have an estimation of when we would get our power back. But we couldn't figure out where my cousin, who owns the house and is now in England, gets his power from. We have one flashlight, so we took a second one from his police belt which was on top of the gun safe, and we are looking through his bills trying to figure out where the power comes from. We couldn't find any recent bill from this year, but we did find power bills from 2005, and a receipt from when he bought a bike back in 1993. It was on something outside though, so we called the place and the person said that it was going to be awhile because some trees had fallen on the power line. My other cousin wanted to go home after that, but first she had to take the 6 inches of water out of her jeep. When she got that out, she was driving down the street, and she called to tell us that there was a whole army of tree trucks and power trucks on the corner trying to fix the power. We got our power back at 11:30 last night.

Float

Today we went to the dock on the lake again as if nothing had ever gone wrong. Well, by that time almost everything was fixed. Although we still don't know what'd up with the buzzing lawn....ANYway, we had been at the lake for a few hours, that is my mom, aunt, and I, when my cousin came walking across the bridge. She brought another floatie so that I had one and she had one. We got in the water, and we're just lazily floating around when we decide to have a doggie padel race on the floats to the next dock. She beat me there, and she said that she deserved a cookie. So I said we have oreos that she could have, assuming our mothers hadn't eaten them all. I beat her back, and there was only one oreo left. Hehehe. It was tasty!=]

Water

After that storm last night, we didn't realize at first, but we had no running water. We all went down to the lake, except for my uncle who was working on some project in the garage. The plumber came as soon as he found out that we didn't have any water. So he got the water to run again and left. We had water, but it was black. Imagine that. Black water coming out of the faucet. But it was okay because we just had to let it run for a little bit. I don't know though...seems kind of frisky....

Power

Last night, that thunderstorm was worse than I thought it was. It was basically 4 small storms in one and it was pretty bad. I was talking to my boyfriend online and trying to comfort Levi and Kirby because they were both shaking when the power went out. The computer screen went black, and Kirby ran upstairs. Levi and I were on the couch, both of us shaking. I doubt I was helping Levi at all since I was shaking too. But I was scared. Mostly because the power went out, and I was stuck in a pitch black basement with a black lab, and my mom, aunt and uncle probably had no idea where any flashlights were. Luckily for us, my uncle for some strange reason had noticed where the flashlights were kept, so I wasn't in the dark basement for too long. Three hours later I woke to the sound of Levi barking, and Kirby, not to be outdone, was also barking. The electrician was outside working on getting us our power back. And sure enough, a few minutes later, there was three flashes of light, and then our power was back!! YAY!!!! This morning I took the dogs outside and the lawn was buzzing. I think it was the sprinkler system. It was really weird. My aunt and uncle and I took the dogs for a walk and passed a house with copper roofing. I wonder if lightning would hi that....

Thunderstorm

Ever since I was little I have always been afraid of loud noises. Thunderstorms, fireworks, gunshots, fire alarms, etc. My ears were super sensitive. I've gotten over most of them though. The thunderstorm I'm okay with, unless it's like directly overhead. The fireworks I love to look at so that's cool. The gunshots. Still not over that one. It's actually part of the reason why I don't like parades. The fire alarms. Now that I think about it, they aren't that loud. It used to be bad though, because at elementary school the principal used to tell the whole school that there would be a fire alarm that day and it wouldn't actually happen until the end of the day. I would be nervous about it all day. But now it's okay, because we have a lot of fire drills at school. That fear was also tied in with the fear of fire. I was never the pyromaniac my best friend is. But I've been in a burning building so it's all good. But right now, as we speak, or rather as I drone on and you pretend to read, there is a thunderstorm going on right here in Georgia. It's kind of far away right now. But two of the three dogs here are afraid of thunder. Especially Levi. Levi's a big dog but he's a wuss when it comes to loud noises. I was playing cards with my mom and aunt when it started to thunder. So Levi and Kirby both ran under the table. But now I'm in the cave. Both dogs followed me down here because it's like their safe spot, but they don't want to be here alone. Poor Levi is shaking!!

Scottish

As you know, at least you should if any of you actually read this, I am on vacation in Georgia with relatives. I was telling my aunt how we had a end of the year dance this year for just our grade. And she said, "Oh, the reminds me. I have a friend in Scotland who has a son that is your age. She sent me pictures of him in his kilt before his end of year dance. I was telling her about you and how maybe you two could get together." Hehehe. I told her that I already have a boyfriend, thanks. But she said that I just have to see the pictures of him because he is really cute. I was telling my boyfriend before I saw any pictures and his response was, "Oh no! Women always fall for the Scottish!!" I told him I wasn't interested in some guy I don't know. That was all in the past couple of days. Today I finally saw the pictures. And my aunt was right. He was hot all dressed up in his kilt. But I'm still not interested because I've only seen pictures and for all I know the guy could be a freakin asshole. I already know some guys like that.

Fireworks

Last night there were plenty of fireworks all over the place. Here we lit sparklers in the driveway. We could here the fireworks that were being lit down by the lake. We didn't go though, because Levi, one of the dogs, is extremely afraid of loud noises. So he was hiding out in the basement while we were watching the fireworks on tv. How sad is that?

Lake

"This is a nice way to spend the 4th of July.....and the 5th, the 6th, and the 7th." This is what I told my aunt as we were floating next to my cousin's dock in the lake by his house. We spent our day on the dock with long periods of time spent in the water, and short intervals spent on the dock. We got to the dock and took our noodles to float around very calmly. I was the only person there you could get away calling a kid, so there wasn't any games or a whole lot of splashing. Just very leisurely floating with a noodle. Then we would climb back on to the dock and sit in the sun for five or ten minutes. We didn't stay on the dock long because it is very hot out. It was a really calm day. Later though, we are going to go back down and shoot fireworks. Or maybe stay in the driveway and stick with the sparklers. I don't know yet.

Plane

So today we flew to Georgia to visit some relatives who are dogsitting for other relatives of mine. We were supposed to leave the capital city of my home state at 8:05. We didn't actually leave until a little after 11. The plane was having mechanical difficulties. They thought it wouldn't take long to fix so they had us wait on the plane for at least an hour. Then they canceled the flight and made the whole plane of people go all the way back to the ticket counter to rebook. Then a good hour later they said that the original plane was fixed and we could all go back on. But by that time there was no way we would make our connector flight so we had to book another one. So we get back on the plane and fly to North Carolina. Once we actually started it was alright, but the end was bad. I had only had raisins and a muffin all day, and at this point it was close to one. I started to feel faint as the plane was landing, and it wasn't helping that it was really bumpy on the way down. Like I was super pale and everything. But once we got on the ground and I ate I was feeling better.

Gaming Nerd

No, Matt, this isn't about you. Just throwing that out there. But the other day, I think it was Sunday....I don't know.....but my boyfriend came over. Before we watched America's Next Top Model (lol, we weren't really watching it, it was just on the tv) I kicked his ass at Burnout. Maybe he let me win...? But yesturday I was hanging out with two of my friends, and one of them plays video games like all the time. Matt it still isn't you. So he's like, I'm gonna kick your ass at Burnout. And I'm like Oh, your on!! And whaddya know! I kicked his ass. I came in like 1st and he came in like 6th. But then he beat me at Soul Caliber. Another good game. I beat him a couple times at that in the beginning, but it was mostly him winning. And Matt, I would like to see if I can beat you at Burnout....

C Is For Cookie

Yestuday my friend came over, and we didn't know what to do. I was tellin her about the brownies I made the other day, how they were the same kind as the brownie pie we made a couple weeks ago. So then we decided to make chocolate chip cookies. Delicious!! We had to go buy the chocolate chips though. Once we started baking, we realized the recipie made five dozen cookies. WHOOPS!

Sleep

This morning, like early this morning, like 9ish, I was sleeping. I had this really weird dream. I was back in school, and it was the last day of school? I dont know. Anyway, my mom was like, "Sarah! Wake up! You just got a babysitting job. It starts in 40 minutes. Get up!!" Me, being rather cranky when just getting up was like EHHHHHHHHHHH. But I got up and left for the job. The mom wanted to go on a run for like an hour or so. I babysat the kids and the mom came back an hour and a half later. She was like, "Well, I'd like to do this again on Wednesday. So how about you come over around 8:30." All I could think about was this morning and how I didn't want to get up at 9. I'll be having tons of fun Wednesday morning.

Thorn

Last night we had another manhunt game at my house. There were different people this time. There wasn't a certain sexist I know who lives down the street. And the neighbor didn't yell at us....again. This time we actually tried, so it wasn't just one kid running while the rest watched. I was in the woods trying to find another way out, but then I got tagged because I couldn't find I way out fast enough. Weird, because I know four ways out, at least. I had to go to jail anyway, so I still had to get out of the woods. The opening is just on the other side of a bush. I grab the bush to get it out of my way and I pull my hand back with a thorn. My friend asked me what I was stuck on and I said, "A thorn." I picked the thorn out of my thumb and threw it away. Then I got out of the woods the way I came in. I squeezed my thumb and blood came oozing out. It was pretty sweet. I have my battle scar. Yea.

Nickname

I have no idea how this started, but my friend was trying to think of a one sylable nickname for me. Sarah. You got your Sally, *barf* and such. All two sylables. So he came up with the wonderful nickname- Sars. Great. I'm deadly disease causing pollen. Lol.

Twins

Whoever said twins meant trouble was WRONG!!!! Actually, I'm not even sure someone said that....huh....I wonder...ANYway....They probably meant twin babies....THAT would be annoying...Seanster the Monster can be a handful sometimes...Wait, he doesn't like that name....but he doesn't know what it means, he's only 6 months old...But his mother doesn't like it when he's called that...Ah doting mother...AHHHHHHHHH OFF TOPIC BIG TIME!!!! ANYway, today I babysat a set of twins. Fraternal twins, a boy and a girl. I'm SOOOOOOOOOO glad they aren't identical. Well, the people I was babysitting for were actually on vacation from Seattle. They are staying at the rich end in town, at their cousins place. Very nice house, waterfront, carriage house to go with it, the whole shabang. At first I felt really out of place. I mean, these people are freaking rich, and I am strictly middle class at this point in my life. But the people were very nice so it was all good. Honestly though, they didn't even need a babysitter. Well, they did, but only for one hour. The rest of the time there was some adult around. I ended up being there for five and a half hours. But I got paid well-$12 an hour-not bad if I do say so myself. It's above minimum wage, right? I went to the country club for the first time with them. Weird. I had driven by it so many times, but had never been behind that fence. And how long have I lived in this town?

Manhunt

Yesturday my friend and I wanted to start our summer tradition again. Playing manhunt every night of the summer. But our siblings had other plans last night, her sister was in Georgia, and my brother was going to a bonfire to burn his school stuff. So it would just be the two of us. We thought, well, we can go across the street, see if our neighbor wants to play, we can ask a friend of mine to get some kids together, and then we'll like six. We ended up having eight kids come to my house. We finally start to play, and my next door neighbor comes out and she's like, "Can you guys play in your own yard?" So we stopped, and jumped on the trampoline until we it was actually dark enough to actually play manhunt. Then we organized another game of manhunt, and at this point everyone knew we weren't aloud in my next door neighbor's yard. Of course everyone went in their yard. I didn't go over there, but apparently she came out again and said fucking bullshit to us. We ended up playing basketball instead, but still, I blame her. My mom said it's because she has nothing else to be angry at anymore.

Bridge

This morning I was babysitting my neighbors, and we were just sitting there with nothing to do, looking through the book of immaturity. Hehehe. Anyway, we saw this bridge you can make out of pennies. So then we made it. It took awhile, because the five-year-old knocked it down a couple of times. But we got it. And then we made another one at of quarters. Wow we have no lives.

Extreme Mastermind

Has anyone ever played the game Mastermind? Extreme Mastermind is when you play Mastermind, get frustrated and start throwing the little pegs at one another. And today, that is what I did. Aside from playing the computer version of guitar hero.

Broom

Today my friend came over. Not the one I hung out with yesturday, different friend. She brought a movie over for us to watch. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. It's actually a pretty good movie. Funny, because the girl is trying to get him to dump her, and the guy is trying to make her love him. After we watched that, we went outside. I got the giant broom out so she could clean off my trampoline. Makes perfect sense doesn't it? While she was cleaning it I was getting eaten alive by mosquitos so I guess it was fair. But her parents came to pick her so she threw the broom off the trampoline, hitting me on the head in the process. Let me tell you, getting hit in the head with a giant broom isn't fun at all.

Dels Fight

Yestuday my friend and I were going to go on a date. We were going to get ice cream together. He was already there when I got there, and so were three of his friends. Neither of us had planned this. But they were there thanks to one of them. His name is Dylan. He had found out that we were going to get ice cream, so he told to other friends to come as well. I guess to make up for it he bought us Del's lemonade. My friend and I threw it at him. Then my friend bought us some more Del's. Only this time it was watermelon flavored. We threw that at him as well. Funny we blamed it all on Dylan even though the other two had the choice not to come. But one of them didn't know we were going to be there.

Camp Rock

Last night I had a movie night with my friend at her house. That movie was what we watched. The premiere of Camp Rock on Disney Channel. I don't usually watch Disney Channel, but for something I wasn't planning on watching anytime soon, it was pretty good. Not that we were paying attention the whole time. In the middle of the movie she decided to find out if I was tickleish, and we had an intense tickle fight. By the way, I'm not giving anyone any ideas about this. Don't randomly come up to me and start a tickle fight. NOT FUNNY! Even if I'll be laughing the whole time.

Summer

Today was the last day of school. But it didn't feel like the last day at all. And my whole grade is going to a different school this year, so it was weird. It doesn't feel like summer, yet it is. How does that work? You know what who cares? IT'S SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!! There was a food fight in my school. Hilarious!!! Let's see....nothing else remotely interesting happened today. BUT IT'S SUMMER!!!!!!

Cookout

Today at school we had a cookout. First we had a ceremony type thing with a slideshow and everything. It showed one hundred kids from last year to this year. So many people and changed, and so many others didn't. It was funny. Then we had a cookout for three hours. There was red rover, ultimate frisbee, food, lots of free food. Who doesn't love free food that's tasty? Anybody who doesn't love that must die a terrible death. I'm a perfect little angel....honest:D

Code Red

Today we had a code red at our school. That means that there is something unsafe in the building. It was just a drill, and it seemed pretty stupid. The principal said over the intercom, this is a code red. We had to lock the door to the classroom, turn the lights off, close the blinds, and sit in a corner of the room completely quiet. For a half hour. My friend got tired, so she decided to lean on me. And then one of the guys was staring at us, like what the hell? We are tired okay? We stayed up late at a dance on a boat last night. Which was fun by the way. So many little dramas. Someone threw a chair off the boat. Pathetic. Although, I'm not surprised at all. But anyway, the dance was fun, and the drill seemed pointless. Who would come and terrorize our school in our town? Nothing happens here.

Birthday

Last night we were out celebrating my mom's birthday. Her birthday was on Wednesday, but yesturday she made us all go to Jamestown. I don't know exactly where we were, but it was pretty, except for the whole it's not sunny anymore thing. We were there for a couple of hours, but I basically missed the whole thing, because I stayed in the car so I could sleep. All of a sudden we are back in the car and it's 5:30. I still thought it was 3:30. It was very confusing. On the way home, we stopped for dinner, which is what we usually do. We are sitting on the second floor porch of the resturaunt, eating our appetizers of potato skins, when an annoying buzzer starts to sound. I look around and see in the resturant a flashing to go with the buzzer. Fire alarm? What the hell? I want to eat my potato skins in peace. I finished mine, and then I heard a voice that told the whole resturant to file out the back staircase. Everyone starts to leave, and I ask my parents "Shouldn't we leave?" My dad says that he is going to finish his bacon before he's going anywhere. Everybody has left, and there are only the waiters, some people at the porch bar, and us still in the building. Our waiter tells us leave, but we can wait in the parking lot, because it is only a small fire. We are in the parking lot, and the fire department shows up, and finally the alarm stops. We file back in, and the resturant is now much less crowded. Apparently one of the ovens in the kitchen downstairs stopped working and caught fire. We were lucky, because our food had just finished cooking when the fire alarm went off. The resturant couldn't cook anything till the health department showed up. Kitchen was closed, but we still got food. I didn't get to have my brownie sundae though. That was depressing.

Sleepover

Last night I had a sleepover with my friend at her house. There were at least twenty things we planned on doing, such as watching a movie, making a movie, make over, photo shoot, make brownies, play guitar hero, play guitar, and pull an all-nighter. Of those we only did four. First we made brownies. We didn't have your regular square pan, so we used a circular pan. Instead of making your normal brownies, we had a delicious brownie pie. We were going to make up. In fact we almost did. We started with the hair, but somehow we started playing guitar. It was really weird, that transition. But then we did have a photo shoot, just without the makeover. By that time it was about five in the morning, so we were talking till we fell asleep. I got four hours of sleep, all of which were after staying up a full 24-hours. That takes skill. Okay not really, but you know.

Lemonade

I can't remember the last time I had lemonade. Except for today of course, I can't remember, it's soooooooooo depressing. But today, my friend ran to the Dell's truck after school, and got us some. Watermelon flavored: YUMMMY!!!!!!!

Ice Water

On Monday, it was ridiculously hot here. My school only has a few rooms with air conditioning, and I just wasn't ready for the sudden heat. So today I planned ahead. I froze a bottle of water and brought it to school today. It was very nice, even though the people sitting next to me were making me feel guilty by staring at it the whole time. I refilled before I left to bike home, and I ACCIDENTALLY splashed it all over me. Accident. Honest.

School

I've been biking to school all week. I know, two days in a row, I'm such a rebel. I'm not supposed to go without a buddy, but today, my buddy flaked on me. She couldn't go because apparently she had too much stuff with her and her mother didn't want her hurting her back. But she might be able to walk home. So with that thought in mind, I convince my mom to let me ride by myself. Again, I'm such a rebel. Riding by myself, IT'S SO SCARY!!! I got to school and it turned out that she couldn't walk home, because of the heat. Which it is ridiculously hot out. I'll get into that later. So I rode by myself all the way home! Wow. I didn't think I had the courage to do something as scary as that. Sarcasm to the max. Anyway, on the way home I was hardly by myself. Because as soon as I got onto the bike path I was behind a group of roving youths as my mother would say. I knew them, and one of them in particular wouldn't let me by. Whatever, not a big deal. But my other friend caught up with me, so I was basically with the four of them the whole time I was on the bike path. Ahhh! I'm in the group of roving youths that my mother usually frowns upon when she uses that phrase. I'm in a rather sarcastic mood this evening. Maybe it's the weather.

Movie

My friend and I have been wanting to make a movie since like February or something. And we've never gotten around to it. So we are signing yearbooks, and we are saying, we have to make this movie now. Our plan was to have a sleepover this weekend and make it. So I tell my mom and she's like, "Well, you can have a sleepover, but I don't really like this having a sleepover every weekend. And I don't know about this movie. It's probably going to end up on the internet which would be a really stupid thing to do, and no. I don't want you making a movie." No matter what I said she couldn't be assured that we aren't going to put it on youtube, and it is for our enjoyment only. No matter what she's says we probably are still going to make it.

Different Library

Today I went to a library in a different town. From the outside it looked like it was a pretty good size. I get inside. IT WAS TINY!!!!!!! There was a lot of space. There was probably more empty space than book shelves. And they couldn't even fill they book shelves. I get to the young adult section, and say, "That's it?" It was miniscule! Although, I did find some books, so I guess it's okay. And then the computers. Five, maybe? It was wittwe wibrary!!!!! Baby talk, gotta love. But seriously it was soooooooooo small. Okay, I think I got the point across.

Red Hot Chili Peppers

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are a good band, I think. There is a song with a zephyr. My friend and I saw the word zephyr, and we both broke out into this song. Ever since, I've had assorted songs of their music stuck in my head. Not that that's a bad thing, I just had to listen to them. But I only had their music on my bean and on the computer. My bean's stolen so I had to wait until my very old and decrepid computer loaded to listen to it. By the time the computer was loaded, my dad was sleeping in the next room. I couldn't put music on; he's not feeling well. It was very frustrating. So now, I'm FINALLY listening to the Red Hot Chili Peppers. God that took awhile.

Career Day

So today we had career day. We had all kinds of different workshops to go to. But every person only could go to four. So after the realllllllllllly long speaker that spoke we went to our first workshop. Mine was the culinary arts. It was pretty good. She already had a cake made so she took the frosting and made it into a pretty sunflower on top. Then she let us eat the cake. At the end she was asking for questions. Nobody said anything. Then one kid said, the cake was tasty. YUM! The next workshop was not one I picked. So I was brutally forced to go to the attorney general. But it actually wasn't too bad. The kids were terrible, but it wasn't that bad. I still don't want to be one of those. My third workshop was performing arts. I thought it was going to be some acting crap. But it wasn't. Instead it was this guy who could play the fiddle and the guitar, and basically he just performed for us. Then the last one was interior design. Okay, I guess. After lunch, we had a fire fighter speak. And then a band played for us. It was good at first, but then I kind of lost interest. I don't know. Pretty boring day.

Violin Teacher

My current violin teacher is no longer teaching in this area, so I have to find a new teacher. I did a trial lesson with a new teacher today. She is really nice I think. She talks really really really really really really fast. Like she could be an auctioneer. She'd be good at that I think. And she's also really positive. She's like you're doing good, good, good. Well not like that. That's like a broken record, but you know what I mean. And then after, the next student was my 6th grade buddy. The awesome kid who has an amazing singing voice!!!! My bff.

List

At the beginning of this week, my friend and I decided to make a list of all the things that were going wrong this week. It started with stuff that happened Sunday. We included my bean being stolen, and her cell phone was stolen on Sunday so that was two right there. And then we just kept adding things. Like on Tuesday on the way to school. I hit a tree. It was either hit a tree or a car, and I chose the tree. I think it was the better choice. But I got a bruise that looked like a motercycle on my ring finger, and a cut on the inside of my middle finger. IT HURT LIKE HELL!!!!! By the end of Tuesday we were up to 50. Yesturday was bad. I couldn't ride my bike to school because it was raining, and then my mom grounded me because I had a bad attitude that matched the weather. So by the end of yesturday I was up to 70. But today was pretty good. I didn't have to add anything!!! YAY!!!! This calls for a party. Bring out the champagne and cookies.

Dark Side

Today I found out that my dad is on the Dark Side. You know, the Dark Side, the Force, Star Wars. Put it this way, my family is a bunch of nerdy freaks. Stars Wars, Star Trek, Star Gate, we've got it all covered. Anyway, my dad is on the Dark Side. He said it was in my genes to be on the Dark Side. So apparently I am too. My reaction was: "YES! This calls for a party. Bring out the champagne and cookies!!" And yes, that is a good combination...NOT THAT I WOULD KNOW...it's just common knowledge....that's all...honest.

Bling Bling

"I am hip. I am cool. I have the bling bling." Imagine a teenage girl saying that in a really dorky voice with a ring pop on her finger. And that is what I did today.

Jello

Is it possible to get sugar high off of strawberry jello? I think you can, because I'm at an incredible high at the moment, and I just had strawberry jello. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I am no quite done yet. But you get the idea. Or you should. Because if you don't then you are a freaking idiot and I don't like you anymore!!! Just kidding!!!! LALALALALALA!!!

Anniversary

Today is my brother's fourth anniversary. Four years ago today, he got married. My sister-in-law is really I great person; I love her. And my little nephew, I love him as well. But I remember that day very well. May 29, 2004. An enjoyable spring day. I believe the wedding was at 2 in the afternoon. It was at the biggest church I had ever been in. And I was the one and only junior bridesmaid. I remeber the lavendar top and skirt I wore. That was when i first got into the color purple. After the ceremony we went to the most beautiful place to take pictures. I don't know what it was and I probably couldn't take you there now, but it was so pretty. After that was the reception. There were toasts. One from the best man, and one from the maid of honor, and one from me. Mine was different though. I played the violin for everybody in that room. It was so much fun. There was food and then the first dance. And the second dance with parents. And then everybody dance for hours. Only stopping for the cutting and eating of the cake. I didn't get back to my aunt's house until 2 the next morning. It was so much fun. So I'm glad that every year I get to remember my version of their wedding day. I'm sure that their's is different.

Annie

I am on a mission to find the piano music for the broadway musical, Annie. I thought you could get it free online, but apparently not. I found it on Amazon, but it was 38 dollars. Totally not worth it!!!! So I shall continue my search, and ask a local music store. I bet it's cheaper there. I hope a succeed.

Bike Path

Today me and a couple friends decided to go to a park in the next to town to have a picnic lunch. We get there and have lunch. Then on the way home, we decide to stop at Cumby's and get a 32 oz slushie. They have sour green apple now!!! YUM. Then we ride home and decide to ride our bikes to the playground. The very same playground that my mp3 player got stolen. We get there and this kid starts following us. We get to talking about iPods and she's like I want another, I already have two. And I'm like WHAT!? NO FAIR!!!!! I don't have any cuz my bean got stolen. Then we decide to go to the ice cream place in town. Coffee ice cream all the way. Then we decided to ride to the beach. We were gonna pick up some more friends on the way but they weren't home. So we went to the beach. But then we had to go home. Although we did see a stop sign the read: "Stop Bush" Funny stuff, and all too true.

Memorial Day

Today is Memorial Day. Wooo! Every year my town has a parade on Memorial Day. I kind of feel bad every year because I don't like parades so I don't go to it. Especially now at my school since I'm in band. The band teacher tries to get as many kids as possible to join the marching band. I would, honestly I would, but I don't like going to parades so why should I participate in it? But the teacher always makes me feel bad, because she says the town likes seeing us kids going out and participating in the marching band or whatever. And I don't even go to the parade.

National Treasure 2

Today I was bored out of my mind for most of the morning. People were busy so I decided to watch a movie. We had just rented National Treasure 2 from the redbox last night, so I thought I'd watch that. Right when the previews started, my friend called. She ended up coming over and we watched the movie. It's a good movie I think. Definitely worth watching. I think the first one was better however. I love Riley. He's awesome. Especially the ending, but I won't say it just in case you haven't watched it.

Bag

Yesturday afternoon I went to the library to meet a friend. By the time my friend got there with her little cousins, the library was just closing. So we took her little cousins to the playground. The two of us were following Stella around, a 23 month old. I put my bag down at this point in the little gazebo. Nothing had ever happened to it before so I figured it would be okay. A half hour later I had to go home. I go over to the gazebo to get my bag and it's not there!!!!!!!!!! There were only two things in it but still. It was a library book that I had just checked out, and my mp3 player bean. My bean! I can't live without that. I can tell the library the book got stolen, but if somebody doesn't bring it back, I'm never getting that back. Knowing my parents, they probably wouldn't buy me another one, because my parents aren't the kind who buy you a new cell phone and iPod every week because you keep breaking it. I don't even have a cell phone. Besides the point. Anyway, I called my mom, and she came to the playground and we asked some people if they had seen it. Of course nobody had seen it, but they think the Asian grandfather that was there might have taken it by accident. Then my mom and I went to the new police station. It isn't that new, but I have never been there before so it's new to me. We reported it and the guy had an accent (not putting down people with accents) that sometimes we couldn't understand him. "Do you want me to report it as laaaaaaarcony?" I didn't understand that last word until my mom explained it to me later. But we told him about it just in case someone brings it in, and today we are going to tell the library, right after brunch. I hope I get it back. Honest. It isn't like they can use the mp3player. It's basically dead. And nobody knows how to use my bean. And not a lot of people like Jane Austen as far as I know.

Talking

So today I was walking down the street on my way to the library. I'm listening to my mp3 player very low so I can hear everything around me. I'm passing Starbucks and I see a couple kids in my grade. They are all taking quick glances at me and talking kind of low. It's so obvious that they are talking about me. I don't know why they would. I'm not that interesting. But since I can tell they are talking about me I decide to stare at them. Not a nice stare like "Hi guys how ya doing?" No, I don't like these kids very much. They are sluts who have nothing to gossip about but the latest styles and how to put other kids down. I don't really care what they think about me. And I don't honestly know. But I'm staring at them coldly. Coldly, and noticeably. And a few seconds later one of them does a quick glance and says, "She's staring at us" Good job. I should've gone right up and asked them something. Like, "So do you talk about everybody when they walk by, or just me?" But I didn't. I just kept walking. And laughing to myself. I think I might've scared them. That would've been funny.

License

My brother got his license yesturday. He drove me to that dance. I get in shotgun, and look over at him in the driver's seat, and say, "Well, this is different." My friend's sitting behind me holding onto my seat. That's support for you. But believe me. I never thought I would be riding shotgun in my mom's car blasting rap out the window. And I did. Yesturday. He was driving us to the dance last night.

Last Dance

Last night was the my grade's last dance for the school year. We have another one, but that one's special and different and is on a boat, so therefore a different level than these normal monthly ones we have. For a last dance, something that should be something to remember, it was extremely boring. First of all, the DJ sucks. He's been playing the same music all year. Any new music he has is from a pop star who has an identity problem. Hannah Montana slash Miley Cyrus slash Destiny whats her name slash hor. Pick one goddammit. Although, I think hor applies to all of the above. So the music is either her shit or Soulja Boy. Soulja Boy wasn't bad the first couple times. But believe me, it gets extremely boring after twelve dances of the same type of music. Besides, it's borderline rap, and I hate rap!!! I'll get into that more later. Second, no one was there. There was a play opening last night that a bunch of my friends are in. I'm going to see that tonight. My boyfriend couldn't come (sad face), and I caught my ex-boyfriend staring at me. I swear that kid still likes me. He says he doesn't but I don't believe him. It's truly pathetic. But anyway the dance was pretty boring. My friend's dad says we should've called to get him to pick us up earlier. We said no, it was our last one. So he says, "You wanted to savour the boredom?" Yea, pretty much. We won't ever get that level of boredom again.

Field Trip

Today was the first and probably last time we are going on a field trip this year. We being me and my classmates. We went to a camp where you had to work together in groups of ten to reach some commen goal. For the first few hours, these goals were pretty easy. Small things that didn't take long. The only one that my group had trouble on and got annoyed by it was the tarp and tennis ball. You had to hold a piece of tarp that had five holes in it. You had to guide the tennis ball in a full circle around each hole without it ever touching the ground. Sounds easy? Hell no! It's wicked hard. After lunch, we had bigger challenges. Harder things. There was one that was basically made for short people. You had to walk across a tightrope with a two ropes that crisscrossed to hold on to. We had lots of spotters to help for that one. It was very hard to balance because the two ropes were probably at my knees for the most part. I didn't get to go across all the way. I fell. Spotters caught me but you know. Still weird.

Code Yellow

Today at my school we ahd a code yellow drill. It was so stupid. The principal comes on the intercom. "This is a code yellow alert. Please calmly file out of the building, immediately." So we go out. And five minutes later, we walk back in. I was like what's the point of this? Whatever it was pretty stupid.

Heart

In science class we are learning about the systems of the body. You know, the circulatory, the digestion systems. Stuff like that. Specifically today, we are learning about the heart. This is kind of random and has nothing to do with anything, but why isn't the heart heart-shaped? Since it isn't, where the hell did we get the heart shape? Random time over!!!! Anyway, today we had to make a model of the heart with two plastic pumps that they make for this kind of thing. You pump water from one cup to the other and the pumps act as the heart while the water acts as the blood. For fun, we put red food dye in the water to make it look blood like. The teacher didn't tell us how it worked, just gave us the materials and said make a model of the heart. This is what happened. My group figured out how to make the model first. We start and basically the rest of the class copied us. Oh yea. I feel like such a smart ass. So we're pumping the blood. I was pumping one end and my friend was pumping the other. And then I accidentaly on purpose twisted it as I pumped and sprayed blood all over everything. The table, the floor, the chairs, our notebooks, all of it covered in a pinkish colored water. It was hilarious. I was laughing really hard as I grabbed some paper towels to clean it up. Finally it's all cleaned and dry. I was looking at my partner's notebook. It had a stain of pinkish water. I looked at my notebook. Nothing. I take the pump again and pour it all over the notebook. WOOOOO!!!! Then it was the end of class. I wonder how that dried.

Chain Mail

There are two kinds of chain mail. As my friend said, "there are 2 approches, forcing ur work to send on... threats and pity...neither of which are true" You know how they are. If you don't send them on to 15 people in the next 20 minutes you'll die in the next hour. Or Please send this on. My kid has cancer and I don't have the money for surgery. If you send it on to at least five people it'll raise 50 cents. Those are the two approaches. I admit the pity guilt trip ones do get me sometimes. I'll be thinking, I don't think this is true, it's probably a bunch of bullshit. But then I'll be second guessing myself. What if it is true? What do I do then? Should I send it on? Or no? Is it true or not goddammit? The threats are so obvious though. How can you not see through those. If you don't send it on you'll never get your wish. This is what happened. Some kid got bored one day and decided to make the whole thing up. What's even sadder is that some people believe it. It's like I put my trust into this email and all of my wishes came true! What the hell? That's so dumb. Only you make your wishes come true. Not so stupid chain mail you got one day. You were just stupid enough to think it was the chain that did it. Having said that, there is one type of chain mail that I find acceptable. The kind that's just a joke. I got one and it was 25 ways to keep a healthy level of insanity. It was hilarious. Skip as much as possible. When leaving the zoo, run away screaming "THEY'RE LOOSE! THEY'RE LOOSE!" Things like that. That kind is awesome because people just send them on because they honestly think they are funny.

Violin

I play the violin, and yesturday I practiced it for an hour and 45 minutes. The 45 minutes was a lesson. But why did I practice so much? Because today I have an audition for the orchestra group I'm in. You have to audition for it every year. That's partly the reason I'm not nervous at all. Been there, done that. No worries right? Right. I just need to memorize my 3 octave scales by 1:15 today. I think I can do that. The piece I'm doing is all good. I got it down. And then sight reading is wicked easy. I'll be like awesome. Maybe I'll move up a level. Although I sincerely doubt it.
