Tackling my brother.

It seems like my brother, Nathan, gets more annoying every day. Maybe that's just because he's my twin. Maybe it's because he's better than me at a lot of things. I don't know why, but sometimes, things inside me snap, and I go crazy for a moment.

Well, luckily, today did not include one of those moments, it was just play. But tackling him felt good to do all the same. :) We were over at Riley and Tucker's house (another set of twins our age that are our friends) with Ashlea Bucher too. We decided to go out in the yard and play around. We romped around a bit. We laughed. We shreiked. And I almost sprained my middle finger with a football again. It was awesome! We also ate popcorn out of a popcorn machine! It tasted just like movie popcorn!!

All in all, I love hanging out with them. They're really fun, and, over there, I can tackle my brother without getting in trouble. So that was the highlight of my day. And that's about as good as it gets. <3 I love my family.

Movies.

Hey there. Mikah here.

Yesterday, I went and saw UNSTOPPABLE with my twin brother, Nate, and my friends Riley and Tucker (who happen to be furturnal sister/brother twins too!), and their parents. It was really good and really suspensful! It was about this train thats had nobody on it with no airbrakes that was barreling on the railroad tracks at 70 mph, heading toward several trains on the main track. Two engineers named Frank and Will tried to stop it. I thought I would die from the suspense at the end.

There is another movie I want to see really bad; Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I. And it comes out November 19!!!!!! I'm so excited I can hardly wait!! :D So, you'll probably know where I'll be at midnight on November 19, huh?!

Until then!

Halloween.

"Halloween is coming, the pumkins getting fat. Witches, and Goblins, will soon be back. Coming up the sidewalk, up to your door! Scratching on the window, stomping on the floor! But you needn't worry, and you needn't fuss; 'cause witches, and goblins, are really US!!"
Thats a little Halloween song my family and I sing during Halloween time. Its supposed to go slowly; as to build suspense. I can't believe Halloween is here already! Even though its Sunday, my family and I are going to the block party our neighborhood is having.
My friend, Emily Jacobs, invited me over yesterday to carve pumkins! I carved out Frankenstien's bride, and it looks awesome!!
This Halloween, I can't trick-or-treat because my dad feels strongly about keeping the Sabbath Day holy. I'm so mad I can barely talk, because I'm not allowed to trick-or-treat once I'm thirteen, so this is the last Halloween I could trick-or-treat and get free candy!! :P
Other than that, Halloween has been really fun this year!

Music.

Hey there. Mikah here.

I find that music can help and influence people a lot. How, you ask? Well, first of all, it can make you feel better in tough situations or when things are hard to get through. I'm talking from experience. This summer, I moved to Oklahoma. It was hard for me because I had to leave a lot of my friends behind, and start over again. Music helped me a lot during this time by telling me things I needed to hear, or reminding me that home is where ever I make it to be. It still feels sad and hard at times, and sometimes it just feels like a big fat vacation, but music helps me feel like everything will turn out just fine.

Music also helped me in a different form too. Not just listening to music, but preforming it. In school, I signed up for Choir as an elective. That really helped me make friends who shared my same passion for music. My Choir teacher, Mrs. Singleton, is one of the nicest and sweetest ladies I've ever known. We sing beautiful music all the time, and I'm beginning to learn how to read music! That was something I thought I would never be able to do.

The third way its helped me is not by listening or preforming music, but by dancing to it. I am a ballet dancer. About a month after we moved here to Oklahoma in May, I signed up for ballet lessons again. My teacher, Ms. Pamela, helped get me back into shape. I've been dancing since I was 5 (7 years) and its become a big part of my life. Dancing helps me express how I'm feeling and helps me forget things for a while. It also helped me make new friends and begin to feel comfortable here.

Music can be big parts of our lives. If you let it, it can become a great friend. Music is our very souls being poured out to the people all around us. It can make you relize you are not alone, make you cry when you need to most, or put a smile on your face. Music is strong, weak, happy, and sad. Music is so many things. But most of all, music is beautiful.

Aggggg!! Oh, *pant*, its just you.

I don't know how it happened. In fact, it snuck up on me so quietly, I nearly peed my pants when it finally pounced. Somehow, my mental development was fast-forward to my teenage years. Woo-hoo! Not.

The thing about it is, I feel so moody all the time, like someone just punched my grandma. I get really hyper, then I'm stressed or drained the next second. And then I feel like life is horrible, that the world is falling apart... but its not! Why can't I etch that into my fist size brain, why can't I understand that?! I really do wish I could be happy all the time. In fact, it kindof annoys me when peoples facebook statuses read; "Life sucks." or "I hate my life right now." Why can't the world just be a happy place? I hear people talk about how horrible their life is, when other people have bigger problems, like their mom just died or something serious like that.

To us teenage species, it feels way more serious than it is. Ha, its kindof funny; we're not taken seriously because we are too serious about things. Maybe we should loosen up. What do you think?? I think so. But, then again, sometimes we can be too loose, like when we don't worry about getting caught while toilet-papering a neighbors house, and the next second, we're cleaning it up and grounded. Its so confusing!!

So, all teenagers need to do is to be serious, but not a stick in the mud, laugh, but not be delirious, and not get caught when toilet-papering. Well thats just splendid. Maybe we can just scratch that whole thing and be irresponsible teens. Like someone important said; "To be old and wise, you must first be young and stupid.". All this just proves my point; being a teenager is a stupid and confusing part of life. Deal with it.

Courage.

Hey there. Mikah here.

Today, my topic is on courage. The trusty old dictionary says that courage is "the quality of mind or spirit that enables a person to face difficulty, danger, or pain."
Courage can come in many flavors; like ice cream! You can do something daring and brave like climbing Mount Everest despite your fear of hights, or go on an overseas voage to a distant land, even though your deathly afraid of water, and can't swim.

Nevertheless, courage can come simple and small too. It could be standing up for a friend, even though your friends might think differently of you, or not swearing, even when everyone else is. One of the parts courage can play in our lives is when we are faced with the desicion to stand up for what we believe in.

Sometimes it hurts to have courage to do what is right, but its worth it. When you have courage, you are telling yourself that you can do something despite your fears and pain. You can overcome what you fear most. Thats true courage.

Jesse Jackson said,“If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it, I know I can achieve it.” When we tell ourselves we can, we most certainly can. When we tell ourselves we can't, we most certainly can't. So next time your faced with the opportunity of a lifetime, or the small challenges that life gives you, try having faith in yourself. Be courageous.

School.

Hey there. Mikah here.

School is alright. Sweet & Sour. There are awesome parts of it, like Language Arts (believe it or not!), Art, Lunch, etc. Some of the stuff, not so much. I'm not saying I like school, but I don't hate it either. Its a mixture of good and evil, if you know what I mean.

One of the things I wish they would change about school is how much time we get to go to our lockers, get to our class, etc. I mean, I know I don't like to feel rushed when I have to take a tinkle break! Who does? My point is, maybe they could add a couple minutes on. Or, at least pursuade our teachers to be more sympathetic and merciful if we walk in a minute late becasuse we had to get there from the other side of the school! We deserve at least that, right?

Student Council elections are coming up. One of my friends, Sandy, is running for treasurer. I'm one of her campeign managers. I make all the flyers and buttons, hand out cards and candy and other doo-dads to the students, and make the people want to vote for her. But I've got competition. That, I'm not so exctited about. Maybe, just maybe, I might be lucky enough to make it out alive. Sure, I'm not the one running for the actual position- I'd never be crazy enough to do that - but still, there are some pretty mean people who do these things too!

Well, no matter the challenge, I'm ready to take it up (NOT!). Happy Campeigning!!

I Know, I Know.

Hey there. Mikah here.

Okay. So, I know that I already changed everything about my blog about five days ago, but I didn't like it! So, I changed everything up, again, including the backround, which is one of my old favorites. The 'Impact' font was just too hard to read, especially in that tiny writing that hides around blogs. I hope you will find the rest of these posts easier to read than before. :)
School starts in two days. Can you believe it?! Two days!! The problem here is that my brain still isn't in school mode... I don't know how I'm gonna wake up in the mornings!!! Oh well, better enjoy summer while you can, 'cause soon your gonna have a homework stack thats taller than you!! I decorated my locker like the beach. I made all the colors bright so that when its bleak and gray in the winter, at least it'll be colorful in my locker!! It looks pretty good, if I do say so myself!!

See you!!

Beauty in the World.

Hey there. Mikah here.

I hope you guys like my new blog backround!! I was getting sick of the old one; I thought I needed to jazz things up!!

Well, you might be wondering why my post title is 'Beauty in the World'. I was reading my friend McKenzie's blog (Hi McKenzie!!), and her post actually inspired it. She was talking about how much she likes to capture the worlds beauty in photographs. I was on my playlist listening to one of my favorite songs, when I relized that it was called 'Beauty in the World'. The song is by Macy Gray, and I love it!! So, if your reading this McKenzie, this post is dedicated to you to show you how much I liked your post!! :) If you want to listen to it, here's the address. I will put it on my Link List too, just in case!!

'Beauty in the World' by Macy Gray :

Love you guys!!

I'm A Runner.

I am officially, a runner! Well, thats what my mom told me...
Here's the story:
My mom goes jogging several afternoons a week. So, on Monday, I asked her if I could go running with her. She told me she was running three miles, and told me I might want to just ride my bike; but I was up to a challenge. So, we left. We jogged really slow, but it makes your muscles work harder, so we did. She told me that everyone can run, but not everybody is a runner. She said a runner isn't the one who wants to get there first to get it over with. She said it was the kind of person who cared about the journy there. I found she was right after a while. I really obsorbed the whole scene. It was nice. When she found me smiling after I was done, she told me she definatly thought I was a runner.

Now, three days after, my legs are really sore. Well, I guess thats what you get when your a runner. Oh, well!!

Locker.

Help! I have a problem! I want to decorate my locker, but I have no idea how!! I was thinking I would do a theme, but is that too tacky? Maybe I'll just buy some cute magnets and a locker mirror and call it good. Maybe throw on a few pictures?
Today, I saw the actual size of the lockers. They're long, but teeny in the width department!! How am I gonna fit all my books in there?! And then, I found out that these lockers are 50 years old, and don't open to well!! What if, on my first day, I can't even get the stupid thing open?! And then, what if I am late every day because I can't get my things out?!! That would be so humiliating!!
I went to the school today to register for this school year. I'm taking AP English, AP Math, Life Science, and Geography as my core classes. Then, for my electives, I'm taking year round Choir, and 3 twelve week classes; Art, P.E., and Spanish. I figured that would help me be well rounded.
So, are you decorating you're locker? Do you have any good ideas? What classes are you guys taking?? Anyway, your answers could really help me here!! Love ya!!

Harry Potter.

Okay, I'll cut right to the chase. There has been hardly anything on my mind except for Harry Potter. About two years ago, I read all the books and stopped on the sixth, because it looked way to long. Then, when I went to see Eclipse [which was awesome!!] I saw the commercial for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows; Parts One and Two!! That got me back on Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows!! I'm addicted. Its all I can think about!! I stayed up several nights in a row to read them, and I love it!!! I don't think about anything else! So, if you were foolish like me, and stopped reading Harry Potter, seriously try reading them again!!!

Family.

I love my family so much. They are the best people I could have surrounding me. But, I have to admit, when I got back from Girls Camp and started a conversation, I wanted to strangle my siblings for inturrupting!! My mom and dad were also going out the night I got home, so, because of those stupid little hormones of mine, I felt like my mom was only glad to have me back because she could have her babysitter again. I broke down in tears -being the drama queen I am- and, I say this honestly, accidently, and I truely mean accidently, made her feel bad. So, she called my dad up and said they would go out tommorrow (today) and that my dad and I would have a daddy-daughter date. Well, this made me feel bad since they were going out to celebrate his birthday, their anniversery, and father's day. I have such willing and nice parents. And here I am, blogging about it. I think I can be so messed up sometimes...

Girls Camp!!

I am so excited!! Girls Camp is on its way...
it'll be here tomorrow!! We are going to a place called Osage Hills. Its still owned by the Indians- they have mineral rights on it and everything!! If you want to stay there, you have to ask their permission before you even touch the dirt!! Luckily, we already got permission, and paid our fees. Apparently, the Young Women did a fundraiser before I came that paid for my fees too!! So, technically, I got in completely free! I got all my stuff packed, well, except for my toothbrush and toothpaste, shampoo and conditioner, basically all my cleanliness stuff.
We get to sleep in cabins and have a swimming pool to swim in! We also have a mess hall {I think thats what its called...}. The cabins and mess hall {again, ?} are air conditioned- which is really nice. I heard the beds are kinda nasty, so I'm bringing a sheet to put over it! Its probably gonna rain a little bit when we're there too, so I have to bring a rain poncho and light weight jacket.
Nate went off to Scout Camp today, at 2 in the morning!! It took them about four hours to get there!! He told me about this one thing he has to do there where he has to survive a whole entire day on his own!! Yikes!! I don't know about you guys, but I probably couldn't survive a day all by myself! I know Nate can do it though... he is much stonger than I am.

Bon Voyage'!!

To Burn, or Not To Burn?

'To burn, or not to burn? That is the question. When you swim in the pond, you forget to slather your delicate epidermis with the sweet dripping protection of the bottle thereof.'
That, is just a fancy Shakesperian way of saying that I got a sunburn on my shoulders because I forgot to re apply sunscreen every two hours. It hurts, really bad!! Although, I must say its getting better. Now, I have to say that, because it is doing better, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt!!! 'Cause boy does it burn and sting!! I think the sun hates me. Really! It seems like its cursed me with this blistering burn because I'm just, I'm, I'm...
I can't think of the word!!!
So, when you go swimming this summer...
All I'm saying is that the sun will hate you too, so protect your 'delicate epidermis with the sweet dripping protection of the bottle thereof'-if you know what I mean!! :)

Its My Birthday!!!!

I'm so excited!!! Its my birthday today! I am officially 12 years old!!!! :) My parents decorated mine and Nate's doors, I got a KING SIZE Hershey bar! Nate got a HUGE Snickers bar! My mom made homemade cinnimon rolls for breakfast, and I don't have to do any chores today! We are planning to go to redbox and get a movie, watch it, go swimming and bowling, and then having dinner; pot roast, mashed potatoes, corn, green beans, and GRAVY!!!!!!!!!!! I really love the homemade gravy she makes!!
Its also Todd's birthday!!! By the way, if your reading this Todd,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OH 'SPECIAL' ONE!!!!!!!!!!

If your smart, (and in on one of our inside jokes) you'll know that Todd is in fact, very 'special'.
So, like I said, its my birthday and I'm loving it!! I still haven't eaten my chocolate bar though...

Summer Daze...

Do you like my new backround?? If you want to have it, you can find it at
http://www.thecutestblogontheblock.com. I'll add it to my link list if you want to got there!
I am so excited!! The young women leaders are coming over to my house on Friday to give me all my Young Womens things!! Tomorrow is my very special birthday-I can't wait!!!!
The humidity and the heat mixed together is overwhelming at times. I forgot how Huston summers were compared to Utah summers-Huston being humid and Utah being dry. I feel like I want to go swimming constantly, but I can't because the pool doesn't open until June. Thats another reason I'm excited!! In June, I'm going to girls camp-they have cabins and a swimming pool!!!!!!!!
I'm really excited!

Happy Birthday Miss. Brailsford!!

Today, Miss. Brailsford had a birthday!! I wasn't there though. :( But... Raven and I arranged a surprise phone call so that I could talk to her! It wasn't much, but, it still counts, right?!
I know that this is my second post today, but the other one was sad. This one is much happier, isn't it? :)
Don't forget to check out the new poll... and vote!! If you want to say happy birthday to Miss. Brailsford too, just post a comment saying so, and I will email her, telling her just how many people wished her a happy birthday!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISS. BRAILSFORD!!!!!!!!!!

Tornado Watch.

Today, I woke up to the early morning news, thunder, and lightning. The thunder was so strong that it shook our house. We lost our satillite connection, so there was no more news for us. Instead, we watched a recording of Home Alone Two. There was a tornado watch until 8:15 a.m., and there might be another one in the afternoon! Stupid tornados!! My mom woke up telling us she had a nightmare that the sirens on the electricity poles went off and we all panicked! Really, this weather buisness is starting to freak me out!!

Confession.

Okay, so, I admit, the last post I wrote had "Drama Queen" written all over it. But can I help myself? No, I can't, because drama is in my blood (thanks Mom!!!).
Really, the people here aren't so bad, even though I haven't even met ten of them yet. Hey, we live an learn. I really don't have anything to post, just a confession of my dramatic scene. Really, I feel like an idiot.

I'll post soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On My Own.

I left Eagle Mountain on Friday. That was the hardest day of my life. I cried so much that my eyes ran out of tears. My head still aches, and my positive perspective on things is coming back, but I still can't seem to recover. I have lived there for four years, and I have made so many friends. I tried not to cry. I really did. I tried to be strong, but I couldn't. If I wasn't in the car, I would of dug a hole in the ground and sob until sobs couldn't come to me. And all that time, all that time, I was thinking. I was thinking about all the people who I hurt, and all the people that I had left. My dreams are filled with fermiliar faces, but they quickly turned into nightmares where I can't remember who they are. I'm afraid that I will forget. And I don't want to forget.
I'm on my own right now. The world keeps spinning inside my head, and I can't seem to find myself. Music has helped me a lot right now. It helps me find my corner of the universe where I can think clearly. I talked to my friend, Raven, once, but that call could only last five minutes, (mom's orders). I miss everything that I had there. But I just have to take what the Lord gives me and be grateful for it.
Who knows? Maybe I will have a great experience in the Okies? That little thought has seemed to cheer me up in the past couple of days.
I miss you guys!!! I promise that I won't forget. Please, don't forget me.

Dork.

Before you read this, you have to know that I'm a bigtime dork!!
To prove my dorkness, I will give you examples...

1) First of all, I played spys today with my trusty parter-Agent Raven!! We had to hide from our evil boss and his colleauge-Stacy!! They were trying to steal our rubies!!
2) I growl at Raven. I am not kidding. This right here is a no kid/joke zone. I really do growl at her when I'm angry. Although-she hisses back!!
& 3) I will admit, I say very stupid and not-making-sense-here!!-jokes. Really! People will just say 'what?' or 'huh?'. I really need a new joke book! :)

Anyways...

I really am a major dork, but I can admit it, so, I'm not a hypocrite! I tell people that they are dorks sometimes, but I do openly admit my dorkness, so you can't tell me I don't!!
I'll post soon!

Shopping.

Today, my mom took me shopping for my 12th birthday dress for young womens-yes, I am lds! I ended up getting a lot more! I got a really long one-it goes down past my ankles-that had spingish colors splashed on flowers. I also got a simple, blue, knee-lenght dress. They're really pretty. At the same store, we found $3.00 American Eagle Jeans. The origanal price was $47! We bought those as school pants for next year. We bought two more pairs-each about $12. Then we went to Paridise Bakery & Cafe`. We split a chicken w/walnuts sandwich and a cream cheese brownie. After that, we went to Old Navy to get shorts for me. All they had were itty-bitty denim bootie shorts, so we went to Ross. We found two pairs of nice, modest shorts there.
I really enjoyed spending time with my mom. Its fun to talk with her and be around her-especially when its just her and I! :)

Makeup, My day, and Oklahoma.

Since we celebrated my 12th birthday-a month early-my mom is letting me wear makeup, finally! I can wear mascara, blush, foundation, neutral eyeshadow, and darker lip colors. I know for a lot of you, that isn't so cool, but hey-its my life and my feelings!:)
I've been in a really cheerful mood lately! This morning, I painted my fingernails pink and my toenails orange with one of my birthday presents (thanks Cicily!) Then I went to IKEA with my family for bunk beds for the boys. When we move to Oklahoma they'll need a better bed to sleep in! Speaking of, I can't believe we'll be moving in less than a week! I'm so sad! Saying goodbye to all of my friends will be the hardest thing to do!
I'll post soon!

Testing.

Really, could a day get any worse?! First, microbursts of wind howl in the night. Second, you have to get up early in the morning to do everything. Third, you have the 'big end of the year test'!!!
I don't think that my day could've gotten worse. You think the worst is over, and then more comes. That, is very sad. I'm sure most of ya can relate. Really, it took us an hour after we went to the test computer lab to get settled, because every one's computer was crashing, Network Errors, etc. It really sucked!!!!!!!!

'Special Retardness' Issues.

Really, this title could not be one more perfect! Yesterday, I went to ballet, only to find that my 'specialness' has indeed jumped up 10 levels! I couldn't get a simple combination down, almost face planted a fall, and bumped into another girl.
Rinse and Repeat!



AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, after that, I was determined not to be a, well, a very special person. Luckily, its bumped down about 6 levels- for now! I'll make sure to tell ya when something really disaterous happens!

My First Gun Show!

Today, I went to my very first gun show! First, I woke up at about, eh, 8:15 a.m. Then, I called my friend, Raven, to tell her that my parents said I could go to the gunshow with her and her dad, Steve. After that, I helped my 'special' brother make hot chocolate, drank some, got dressed, and did the dreaded chore of cleaning my room.
Walking to the church building we were going to clean before we took off was no big deal. Actually, the cleaning was probably the best part of going to the church.
After that, we went to Raven's brothers' soccor games. That, I have to say, was a long, devistating wait. When we finally took off to the gun show, it was about 12:45 a.m. Reaching the building where it was going to be heald was the easy part, it was just finding a parking space that took 45 minutes. Steve parked his car at a nearby school, and we walked to the building.
The gun show was awesome! You'd be surprised how much of the stuff they sell aren't guns. In the end, I got a blue box-cutter pocketknife(curtesy of Steve), a charm braclet(from Raven), a glow in the dark stick-it lasts 8 hours!!(from myself), and tons of free stuff! If you are thinking about going to a gun show, I really suggest you go! You'll enjoy it! Just make sure you like looking at military kits/weapons/cars/clothes and loads of other stuff!

Spring Break!

Its finnaly Spring Break! I am so excited! I'm gonna try and sleep in a lot! Everything I do from now until the end of the break is going to be either partying, swimming, sleeping, eating... anything else to add? Remember, I love comments!

The Goose Girl

I have been reading this really amazing book called "The Goose Girl". Its by an amazing author named Shannon Hale. When I first read the title, it didn't really appeal to me, but when my friend, Emma, told me I should read it, I knew I just had to. Cause when Emma reccomends books, you know that they are amazing! Of course, Emma has proved right so far- I started it yesterday and am on page 278! Yeah...
So, if you are stuck with the nothing-looks-good-in-the-book-area blues, check this seris out! Oh, I forgot to mention that this has four books to it; the series is called "The Books of Bayern".
So, go check out your school or local library if you want stories with adventure, suspense, betrayal, and loyalty to a 'special' girl/princess/use-your-imagination-and-guess-whatever-the-heck-she-is! I reccomend these books to everyone! So good!

Boosh this Guy!

Pow! Boosh! Go! One of my little brother's favorite games,(his name is Ethan!) is on agame.com! So funny! Here is this link:

http://www.agame.com/game/territory-war.html

Please! I'm begging you, for the life of humor, Check this out!

Chocolate Chip Pancakes

For lunch after church today, we had chocolate chip pancakes! They were so good! We had hashbrowns on the side, and they were delicous! My parents are finaminal cooks I tell you! Finaminal!!!!
I've been working on taking some pictures for the blog, but I haven't quite worked that one out yet!

Poker Face

I found out a couple of days ago that I don't have a good poker face. Go figure. I'm the worst liar unless I lie to my parents. What a talent. Yipee.
I found out how to tell if my friend is lying or not! She gets this over-innocent look in her eyes, and her voice has a tint of sarcasam and over exxageration in it! Its so funny! When I told her that she had that innocent look in her eyes when she tried to convince me that their was a spider in my closet, she denied it. Once again she got that look in her eyes! I laughed to myself all night thinking about it!
We were doing these fake/cheesy commercials for this cd that we got in 4th grade about drug prevention called 'Mind Over Matter'. It was so funny! Raven's name was Dortha, and mine was Linny. I don't know what made us decide on those names....


but eventually we did! We have so much fun together! Then Raven had to go because I had to babysit. Shes on vacation right now, so our fun is postponed until further notice.
To be continued... :)

Boomerangs, Gum, Country Songs, and Milkshakes!

Today is Friday, which, happens to be one of my most favorite days! Today, we made boomerangs in school! We were learning about Australia and we decorated the boomerangs with things that represented Australia. It was pretty fun, and we flew them a lot. One of my friends, Raven, took me out with her wonderful mom, Delana! It was so fun! We went to this great fast-food place were they pair almost everything with scones, like BLTs for instance! It was so yummy! We also had milkshakes, me a brownie, and Raven a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup! On the way there, I got gum stuck on my hair, which really sucks cuz I have long hair! When we rode there and back, we sang along to some of the greatest country songs I've ever heard! We also listened to a tid-bit of rock, and that was fun to! When I got home, Raven and I got huge globs of peanut butter and enjoyed rubbing it into my hair. Well, I did, but Raven kept complaining about how my hair kept sticking to her and falling off, and how the peanut butter was gross... which is odd because she was the one who taught me to buck up about burps and gross things like rotting food! That, was one of the best Fridays of my life!

Earaches and Soccer

What a earache of a day! Seriously! In P.E today, we played soccer. This lovely experience remided me why I didn't try out for the soccer team. I could barely catch my breath, and I think I twisted this girl's ankle in a collision. Yikes! And the WIND! It was like 'woosh!' and I was like 'Ahhh!'. I lent my jacket to a girl with a short sleeved shirt,(I had long sleeves.) and by the time the period was over, I was chilled on every part of my body! My ears ached really bad, and I got splotches on my face, even though I wasn't crying. It was just so cold out there! Then there was the fact that I was wearing high heeled boots, I mean really high heeled stinkers, and I just about twisted my own ankle!
My mom took me out to lunch today, and we had a really good time. We talked about some things I was having trouble with, and I listened very closely to what my mom said. I was glad that we got to spend some quality time with her.
I have some good news though! When I got home from a tough day of school, my mom had chocolate doughnuts for me and my brothers waiting there! I had some cold milk with mine. It was then that I knew that my day was almost complete! Almost there! Got to make it!
I have 4 words of wisdom for you: Chocolate makes everything better!
The faster you learn that, the better off you will be in life!

Quick as a Flash!

Holy Moly! Cheese and Crackers! Finaminal Fillies! Cherry Ricki! I've done it again! Time has escaped from me like there is no next week! I was racking my brain just to come up with the right phrases to describe my heebedie-jeebies! I am in a very word-tastic mood today. Anyway...

The reason that I was even in need for these several heck-of-a-sayings, is beacause summer is almost here! Spring hit me like one of those baseball batters who grand slam the ball out of the park!

Sometimes I just wish that everything could stay the same. That I could just live my life perfect. Of course, that will never happen, but, we can always dream. :)

I'm a Barbie Girl!

You might be wondering why "I'm a Barbie Girl" is my title today. No need, because I'm about to tell ya! The reason why I have such an odd little title, is because I was on playlist and I typed in Aqua Barbie. Most hilarious results I've ever gotten! Go ahead and listen to it! I laughed for a long time. Then it got stuck in my head! When I sang "You can do my hair, Undress me everywhere!" in the kitchen, my mom looked at me like "What the heck are you saying!" Sorry Mom!

Today, I decided, is Weekly Nap Day! My parents (mom in particular!) love naptime and quiettime. So, as of 20 years ago, it is Weekly Nap Day, just for my parents!

I'm really happy today too! My friend is having a cookout/barbecue thingymabobber and my parents said that I might be able to go! Yipee!! I am hereby donating this to the Mikah Food Fun Post! Aren't I so generous?

National Shoe Day!

Me and one of my best friends,Raven, decided that today is National Shoe day! Make sure to wear your shoes whenever you go outside, and brag about how you knew it was National Shoe Day, and they didn't! Then draw and design a shoe that you would wear if it was real. Then....

Well, you get the point.

On Thursday, I had music class. We learned some fun games like 'snap tag' (please correct me if I am wrong!) and we sang some more blues. I thought a lot of those sung were hilarious! Heres the one I sung...

*Note: (This doesn't rhyme all the time!)


'My jacket shrunk in the dryer
I was very mad
My jacket shrunk in the dryer
it was very sad!

My jacket shrunk in the dryer
and now its up to my wrist'




I was gonna add somethin like;
'My jacket shrunk in the dryer
and you get the whole jist!'

It was then that I figured out that on the last "stanza/thingymabober" only had two lines. Yipee for me.

I was also thinking some more today about why clothes are important. The reason I was thinking of this was because I had one of those classic dreams...
I went to school with only underware on. At least I had them on.
Why do you think clothes are important? (remember; I love <3 comments!)

Summer Job. Hmmm...

I was thinking about a summer job... I think a lot! Anyways... I was wondering if any of 'yall have any suggestions for this wonderful, angel child posting this right now?
I was thinking about painting little girls' nails or just babysitting.
