halloween

it turned out grace was wendy. it was pretty awesome. she went and bought a blue nightgown that day. the weather was soooooooooooooooo nice!!!!!!! it was absolutely perfect. our group ran half of it so at the end of the night, i was actually hot. i was wearing a cami, a tank top, a t-shirt, my dress and leggings and i thought i was going to be freezing. after trick-or-treating, we went to summer's house and played. i ate some potato soup! we played camoflouge and i was pretty good at it. we kept calling the other group and they said they were on their way to kaylas, but when we went there, the other group (sarah, sarah, emily, and michaela) said they had been there for awhile. it was just confusing. so at the sleep over we watched the office and played truth or dare and sleepover-y stuff. it was funny how people liked to text on my phone so much. so we did a lot of texting. we stayed up until about 2:30 or so and woke up at 9. we were good people and donated a lot of candy.

yesterday, we were going to go to ukai with julia, grace, michaela, vivian, and graces mom, but when we got there, we couldn't get seats until 8:30! so we went to another japanese place called sansu. it took fooooooooreeeeeeeever to get our food. but we were entertained with eachother. lolololol. grace's mom lololol. it took us a really really really long time to decide what to get. grace and i shared two rolls. i know one of them was a california roll. our waiter guy was awesome! julia some how got reeeeeeeeeeeeally hyper. it was so unlike her! it was really weird. but since we didn't get the spots we wanted, the hostess person gave us this really yummy thing. there was ice cream and chocolate and whipped cream and fried bananas. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. we took lots of pics on the ride home. julia looked funny in ALL of them. i looked good in almost all the pictures. it was weird. ya so laters!

idk

so yeah. i, like a lot of people, haven't posted in awhile. i don't know why. i just didn't have anything to say (still don't) and i keep forgettting and i'm preeeeeeetty busy. but last year i did track and i had a lot of homework and i still had time to blog. oh yeah. last year i didn't have that "no staying up past 9 even if you're not done with your homework!" rule. my parents say if i'm not done with my homework, i should get up early and do it. but i still get the same amount of sleep as if i stay up. last night i didn't fall asleep until midnight. it made me mad. then i had to get up at six to eat a "good breakfast" (i was still hungry around the usual time tho :( ), take a shower, find a calculator and do the L.A. flashcards that it turned out Mrs. cesar didn't even check in. this morning was horrible biking weather. it was dark and kinda cold (not really tho) and reeeeeeeeeeally windy and raining and there were leaves everywhere and it was slippery and yeah. it was bad. that's about all i have to say.

i haven't posted in awhile

so i was watching seasame street (i don't remember when but it was sometime this month) and David Beckam was on!!! it made me soooo happy! if i hadn't been watching seasame street right then, i wouldn't never seen elmo ask david beckam to play soccer with him! i love david beckam. i'm probably spelling his name wrong tho. oh well. yesterday i got home the launch of our magazine. it was really fun. some people didn't get along (not saying any names) but it wasn't that bad. we did sleepover stuff. walked around the lake, went to hiawatha, watched 27 dresses, watched part of the devil wears prada, did eachother's hair, and played games and talked. i think i went to sleep around 7:30. and woke up around 10:30. oh yeah and we ate a ton of candy! and cookies! and brownies! and brownie cookies! and grapes! and watched part of charleston! and read our magazines! I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT TOMORROW IS THE LAST DAY OF SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i wrote 96 pages in my notebook and i'm still trying to catch up. i'm still talking about girl scout camp. tomorrow i'm doing the mackinac (sp?) bridge walk and BANG! SUMMER'S OVER! NOOOOOOOOOOO!

Blue Lake

i am back from blue lake. i was in the white band. oh well. my dad says it was because i didn't practice all summmer. that's probably true. but i didn't move after reauditions. our counselor was awesome. she always gave us 20 minutes of flashlight time and let us talk during it(except the last night when we had unlimited flashlight time as long as we were quiet. i stayed up until 12 that might). she also played music for us to sleep and wake up to. she didn't make us get up until 6:30 unless we wanted to take a shower. then we would get up at 6. she let us pratice in our cabin. one time there were like, five people playing our instruments! she let jamie straighten half of her hair so that she was half a clown and half a normal person. she didn't make us clean but we did a little cleaning anyway. still, we were last almost every lunch, but we didn't care. she was just so easy-goeing and nice and funny. i am going to miss her and all of my other camp friends. we got to have santa as our director. he gave us candy. he was really strange! we got annoyed because he stopped us so much when we were playing. a lot of the songs we played for the concert, we had never played all the way through! we did okay anyway. i will miss blue lake!

hello again.

this is the absolute longest i have ever went without posting! so i went to camp and came back. then my parents said i couldn't have my computer back until i cleaned the counter in the bathroom, vacuumed the bathroom, cleaned my hamster's cage, cleaned my room, unpacked from camp, did the laundry, put those clothes away, and packed for new hampshire and maine. i made my room a lot better but it's still not clean and i got really close to finishing unpacking. but the rest i finished. so i got my computer back but had to use the time to go through my 80-some emails. it took forever. during my no computer time, vivian came and slept over. we ate strawberry ice cream at midnight. fun! the next day, we biked to QD with allie. when we were trying to leave, allie was throwing a fit and saying she didn't want to go get ice cream. it was weird. we finally forced her to go. i rode on the two person bike on the way there. vivian and i got two scoops and allie got one. all of those only cost like, $2 and i was confused, but i didn't question the person. vivian tried the two person bike on the way back and didn't do so well. she screamed all the way home. allie was screaming with joy and laughing. the bike looked like it was really close to tipping over. it was scary to watch. a few days later i went to new hampshire and maine and got home yesterday. my mom was ecstatic about the l l bean stores. i got sun glasses, a jacket, a backpack and flip flops. on the plane ride home i sat next to a girl who was an unacompanied minor. she was nice but she seemed nervous.
