Role Models.

Today, this guy asked me if I blog.

Is is THAT obvious? I'm really hoping he meant that as a joke.

Anyway, one of the things I came to realize this week is who my role models are. I guess I should explain.

Mutual last Wednesday was Senior Recognition Night. All the wards got together, and recognized the nine seniors that are going off to college next school year. Two of them are going to BYU Provo. Among those nine were Sadie Jacobs, Johanna Heartsock [aka: Noah Heartsock's sister... AHHHH!! :D], Hilary Scwantez, and Amanda, who was one of my YCLs at Girls Camp last summer!! She's really awesome, by the way. Those girls, I have come to realize, I want to be like... really bad. They are all smart and mature and have actually survived through Middle School and High School, which is a feat that might possibly be all together too impossible for me. They've graduated from Seminary, earned their Young Womanhood Medalions, and have probably gotten on the Honor Roll a thousand times.

Oh, to be old and smart. I just hope I make it there.

Randomness.

The first topic of discussion. My cousin now has his learners permit. Weird. Hes so old now... practically a fart lying on the couch. Maybe when I see him this summer he'll have gray hairs. Or liver spots. Or, even worse... hairy moles and WRINKLES!!! Maybe I can ask him to taxi me around... with an adult.

Second, and quite possibly, the most important matter here. My birthday is NEXT WEEK!! I'm going to be a teenager.[that part I'm not too excited for. I mean, have you seen the teens who go to my school?] But this also means having a party with all of my friends, Nate's friends, and maybe a few crashers. And, if you are wondering what you might possibly get me... just a smile and a hug will be fine. Topped with those cute earings from the mall. And heath cake.[which I found out actually has another, more common name that I'm not going to put on here for its, ummm... adult-like qualitites...] Oooh! I also want some of those Soffe shorts!! You know, because of the volleyball workouts I'll be doing this summer... :D

So, while sitting in Spanish today, my friends and I got talking about Fish Hooks, which, just happens to be our all time favorite show [besides Phineas and Ferb, Friends, the office, and CSI]. Okay, so it's my 1... 2... 3... erm, fifth favorite show. Anyway, we were all laughing about the newest episode; the one where those parasite aliens seep into their bodies. We got to talking about that one fish with the eighties hairdo and thick eyelids and monotonish, aditudey voice. Suddenly, Emily [the Leupp one, not Gibson or Reel or Matlock ones] broke out into a perfect impression of that one fishes favoirte saying- "Giiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrrrlllllll!" It was so perfect, we were all rolling around on the floor, laughing. Mrs. Ullery gave us this funny look and told us to go back to our desks. So now, everytime we see each other in the hall, we say "Giiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrrlllllll!" all Emily Leupp like. It's hilarious!!

Also, today, when Wilson Elementary came in for tours of the middle school, the Choir [which I happen to be in] sang "Firework" by Katy Perry for all the kids. Before we came onstage, me and Makaly were laughing and dancing along to the band's short little song, and I kindof did this embarrassing dance, and Colton Penrod and Mat Bullock kindof saw me. And now they won't just let it go, and both them and Makaly have teased me about it 11 times already [trust me, I counted]. I wonder how long it'll be before they forget about it...

I might have to think of something real good to get Makaly with. Time to get out the good old prank book of knowledge [which I wrote myself... it's kindof in my head ;D)...

That Kind of Day.

Today has been that kind of day. You know, the one where your wearing a T-shirt, sweats, and your hair is frizzing even though you've mixed countless loitions and potions to keep it smooth.

When I got home from school today, I sat down with a bowl of indulgent trail mix and totally vegged out on the couch with the TV. I'm really lucky I didn't have any homework.

School was okay, except for Math. Math has always given me a headache, but today especially. We spent Friday and today working on making 3D shapes from several nets the teacher gave us. We had to color in the egdes, faces, and verticies. All of that was just for the stupid worksheet we were assigned today. I finished the worksheet in about twelve seconds, and, with Mrs. Fitz's permission, crumpled my eight shapes up and threw them in the trash. She also assinged us a workbook assignment, which I still haven't finished. Hmm. I guess I DO still have homework...

Whoops.

Study Guide.

Tommorrow, another school week begins. I'm not sure if I'll be able to drag myself out of bed this time. I swear, the only reason they keep us in school after testing is to torture us. At least, thats what my science teacher seems to think. On Friday, we got a 187 question, fill-in-the-blank study guide thats due tommorrow. I'm just thankful she gave us the weekend to get it done.

Also, I seem to have forgotten to tell mothers out there Happy Mothers Day!! I love my mom, but I have to admit, I was relieved this morning when my dad told me he got my mom a present in my behalf. I totally forgot until Saturday night!! How horrible am I? I don't know how my parents put up with me.
