UP!

So yeah, I went to see UP with Jess today in 3D. It's such a cute movie! But damn, that Charles Muntz dude has too many dogs. =P But anyways it was a pretty awesome movie, but the 3D effects made me sort of dizzy near the end. Speaking of those, I stole the glasses. I mean, it's not like they're going to reuse them... right? And sorry Stepho, but they're MY glasses. Especially since you smacked me and my smack back wasn't "legit" enough for you. -.- Haha, jaykays, but they're still mine.

Then we went to Fuddruckers and bought these hella yummy chili cheese fries. Yup. That was about it, but it was still fun. XD

Only17 more days until Taiwan!!! Yay!!! =D
And only 2 more days until my piano test!!! Nooo!!! =(

I'm Baaaaaaaack!!!

Back from my incredibly, incredibly, INCREDIBLY long Blogger deprivation, which lasted - yes, it did! - 29 days! Counting today. Maybe I shouldn't count today. Oh well. Whatever. Anyways, I went to Michelle's birthday party oh so long ago. It was hella fun! Dinner at Sweet Tomatoes (yummy!) then we went to see Night at the Museum. I love Michelle's mom. She was like (to Gabe and Jimmy), "If the girls do anything bad, and the guards come over, make sure you say that you did it." Then we went back to Michelle's and watched people dance (hip-hop, C-walk, breakdance, whatever). Then we stayed up until 6 watching movies!!! Hell yeah! XD

And I got my first official check ever! Haha, $42.54! W00t! And yeah, I have gotten checks before, but not OFFICIAL ones. As in, like, business-official, not personal-official. If you get what I mean.

I can't remember much else. Yeah, my memory is that bad. But hey, it's been a month! Almost. But anyways, finals were a bitch. Or rather, multiple bitches. XD Stupid math teacher gave me half credit on a 50 problem assignment because I didn't show work for TWO. FREAKING. PROBLEMS. And they were simple algebraic ones too, not like I had to work out what the square root of some infinitely long number plus 56 pi squared to the eighth was. -.- Oh well. I GOT 100% IN ENGLISH!!! HELL YEAH! So yup. Final grades are:

PE: A, 96%
World Geography&Cultures: A, 96%
Algebra II: A-, 92.51% (<--- Bahaha, good to know that I can still get an A- while skipping some homework problems by showing some crap work, and not spending any time on this class whatsoever. XD But I'm still sort of pissed. I should have gotten a higher grade. -.-)
<-- English 9: A+, 100% (<--- Hah! That'll show Mrs. Foss. It IS possible to get an A+ in her class!!!)
Ceramics II: A+, 100%
CP Biology: A+, 108.63% (<--- Lol...)
French III: A+, 97.46%

So yup. Yay, I guess? But frosh year doesn't count. So whatever.
On the upside, TAIWAN THIS SUMMER! HELL YEAH! And tons of other people are going back when I'm going to be there too, like Shannie, Kim, Michael...
On the downside, piano test this Tuesday. And yes, I did say one day. I was SUPPOSED to take the Bach test too, on Monday, but my parents decided that I wasn't ready enough, even though I only had 2 songs left of Bach, and 1 of my thirteen pieces, and like, a week to go. -.- Oh well, whatever. But it pisses me off that I wasted all those hours prepping and memorizing for a test I'm not taking. And now it's going to be another year before I can take it. So I'll have forgotten everything by then. *sighs*

But anyways, other than that, not much else to post about. I've read Nectar in a Sieve and Sophie's World already, and I'm starting Bless Me, Ultima. I don't remember anything though, but who cares? It's not like we'll actually have a test on it. Why yes, I did ask my awesome sophomore friends. Jung, you still owe me, let's see... Quite a few Jamba Juices, pho, bubble tea, and, oh yeah, a chocolate pie. =P

There probably won't be much to post about anymore, until my piano test; I'll let you people know how that goes. No, wait. DAMN I FORGOT ONE OF THE MAIN POINTS!

I'm fourteen now! Roflmao. Yeah, that happened sometime between now and then. Okay, NOW I'm done. See you people, and I WILL post more! Hopefully in less than 29 days. =P

Stalkers at the Mall

Jeez I haven't posted in foreverrr...
Well anyways, over the weekend, I went to the mall with Mike just because we were bored and needed something to do. XD So anyways, he wandered off somewhere when I was getting us those smoothie/slurpee thingies, so I was walking around the place trying to figure out where he went.
Then this one guy starts following me, and I got totally creeped out, because usually when people follow me in the mall, I'm with a friend (and therefore it's less creepy-outy), and he keeps following me, and you can tell he's actually being serious about this because he has this sort of creepy look on his face. Plus, there's no friends around him, and he's not bursting out laughing. So yeah, he was about our age, I'd say 15, and would've been sort of cute if he hadn't been stalking me. So I sat down in those nice comfy sofa chair things, called Mike, and was like, "GET YOUR BUTT OVER HERE BEFORE I GET KIDNAPPED BY THIS TEENAGE STALKER/KIDNAPPER DUDE." So I'm sitting there, drinking my slurpee thing, and Mike comes over, gets his slurpee thing from me, and we start walking towards H&M, and get this. The guy is still following us.
I swear, isn't it sorta of common sense not to stalk someone if they bring over a friend of the opposite gender? Most sane people would put one and one together, as in 1 girl + 1 guy = ??? and bug off. Not that it's always true (like now), but I mean, seriously.
So then Mike decided to record him following us, which was sort of lame, but hey, each to his own. So after a while, we were getting pretty bored of looking over our shoulders and asking each other, "Is he still there?" So Mike goes over to the guy, and I have no idea what the hell he's doing, but I can hear him pretty well (the guy sucks at being a stalker, he's like, 7 feet away), and so basically, he was pretending to be my boyfriend and was pretty much acting all pissed off at the stalker dude.
Then the dude pretends he doesn't know what we're talking about, so Mike whips out that video clip he shot (of like, 10 minutes with the guy behind us). So after that, the guy just stands there, stammers, then beats it. I was like, LOLLL. It was hella funny. XDD

*****

Anyways, brief synopsis of my life:

PE: Softball. The ball is like, bigger than my hand. And the bat is apparently heavy (according to Courtney, who used to play softball), but I don't think it's THAT bad. But yeah, it's sort of heavy. No swimming! Ever!!! Hell yeah! XD

History: Israel stuff. Socratic seminars. I'm not exactly sure what we're doing, but we have a test on Israel, so I'll take a wild stab and say Israel. XD

English: The Importance of Being Ernest! Haha I'm the person who falls in love with Jack, because I think his name is Ernest. Which, technically, it really is, but...
Presented my Alex Award today too; epically failed, but whatever.

Bio: Molluscs. Great. ROFL, we had a sub on Friday, and I was hella tired, and we had an underwater video to watch, so...
Sleepy Erica + Dark Environment = Sleeping Erica
There's a first time for everything. =P

Math: Conics. Fun... Parabolas, circles, ellipses, hyperbolas, foci, directrix, transverse axes...

Ceramics: Glazing. Not much else. We're having a food thing as our final. Bahaha. Of course we need to make the stuff we're putting the food in, but... Easy final. It's all good.

French: Petit Nicolas! Last test on "Le Bouillon" tomorrow, then we're acting out our own chapter. Haha yay! But Madame Goldin isn't coming back for the rest of the yar, and the sub is hella annoying... =(

Random Stuff: You're looking at the blog of the newest employee of Kumon! Haha, so lame, I know. Apparently I got the last spot, since someone is leaving, but whatever. Starting next Tuesday! Come visit me: Tuesdays/Fridays, after school! It's the Kumon by Le Asia.
I am so screwed for my piano Guild testing. Not even joking.
I got those Academic Excellence award things from Pence (haha, 110%!!! XD), and Foss (o.O).
David Choi Music! Go check it out. ;D (I need to update my MixPod...)
Robyn's sick. =\ I hope she gets better soon... Have fun reading these posts, Robyn! I'll try to update daily. Haha, yeah right. XD
I REALLY want a Werther's Caramel right now... *sobs*

COURTNEY'S BIRTHDAY IS THIS SATURDAY! BRING PRESENTS, FOOD, WHATEVER FRIDAY!!!

No Swimming, Please

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

I went Sunday with Sling, Tiff, Jess, and Justine. I thought it was pretty good. The very beginning was rather confusing and sort of stupid, but the action sequences were AWESOME, especially after they join Team X and infiltrate that one building. Haha. Agent Zero and Deadpool are sooooo cool! Too bad they were both evil and died in rather disturbing ways. XD The guy who played Wade was pretty cute though. And I was like, "OMG, that dude [Bolt] is the hobbit!" Then Tiff was like, "Wtf...?" because she's never watched any of the LOTR movies before. XD
It was sort of awkward, since we were in the very front row. The theater was PACKED. Anyways, I got dizzy during the previews. XD Kind of funny, but annoying nevertheless. The Ice Age 3 preview was soooo cute! =D

Afterwards, we went to Barnes&Nobles and read some books, then just wandered around for a while. All in all, a pretty cool day. Not spectacular or anything, but fun nevertheless.

Objection, Your Honor!

Yup. The mock trial is going pretty well. I think defense did really good, given that we haven't even started to present our case yet.
Apparently I objected too much though, as stated by *cough* CourtneyandRobyn *cough*, but Mr. Sloan DID sustain most of them. Plus it doesn't seem like all the jurors were annoyed, just a few. *cough* But whatever. It was rather fun. I can't wait for the closing!!! It's going to be awesome. =D
I'm soooo glad that Eric's the emperor though! I mean, he's going to be an awesome witness! Haha, I probably didn't even need to give him the answers to my questions. ;D

As for objecting, I object to all my other classes. XD Well, most of them.

Bio was pretty interesting, but really depressing too; Mr. Pence just talked about his niece, who was strangled and set on fire by her ex. o.o

Now, Chinese was HELLA fun. I stole Michael's folder and decorated it with smiley faces, flowers, hearts, and rainbows!!! Haha. He was like, "Great, now everyone's going to think I'm gay." XDD Then during break, Kim, Michael, and I went outside and got totally drenched in the rain. It was pretty fun.

Stupid Poetry Project...

It's freaking torture. -.- At least I picked all my poems already... I hope I finish by the time it's due though. I have this awesome idea that just MIGHT get me some extra points, plus it takes some problems off my back, but I don't know if I'll be able to finish it. Maybe she'll give me an extension? Yeah right. XD
Anyways, we have to put it our "Capturing a Moment" poem, which sucks. Because my poem sucks. =P But I never posted it up here, so... Here you go! ;D



Behind a Veil of Steam

A light gauze coats the transparent door of my shower,
Lazy droplets slowly inch their way down walls of glass and tile,
The temperature knob turned as far as it can go,
And scalding drops of water penetrate my sin like tiny bullets.

Tensions throughout my body which I didn't even know I possessed
Oozes out of my pores into cascades
Of shimmering water streaming down my body.
I breathe in a mist of cucumber shampoo and liquid Dove soap.

The rhythm of the water dancing on the floor,
Creating a blanket of soothing music that envelopes me like an old friend,
Muffles the noises of the evening that permeate through our house:
The sound of frying, movies playing... all extinguished by the soft pitter-pat of water.

In the shower I am alone.
No sister barging into my room unannounced,
No friends interrupting me with the shrill shriek of the telephone,
No parents nagging me about school and piano.

The water falling from the shower head is no ordinary tap water,
But rather a magical fluid infused with a mysterious power that entrances me.
The sparkles of falling water mesmerizing me into reflection,
Allowing thoughts tumbling in somersaults to soften into a dewy mellowness.

Within this world of glass, I catch every thought in my mind
Before they vanish like the ephemeral flashes of fireflies.
Then I release them into the world, let them drift away,
Up towards heaven like softly curling vapors of steam.

Within these walls, I find myself:
A writer, contemplating the notions tinkling through my mind like a well-known melody.
A child, remembering days on the playground monkey bars, climbing looming trees.
A friend, thinking of those who have come and gone, cherishing the ones with me now.

I am tucked away in this small three-by-four pocket of time,
Away from frantic deadlines and countless things to do.
The last of the water flows into a swirling spiral down the drain t my feet,
Having cleansed not only my body, but my mind and soul,
Leaving the bare essence that is me.

Ross, Ross, Ross...

Bahaha. I love him. He's such an idiot. XD He makes my day sometimes. He doesn't do it on purpose, but... =P

Anyways, this morning was pretty bad though. Like, we always seem to try to close the trunk at the same time, so I just reached up, and tried to close the trunk, and I hear this *THUNK* and I was like, "Um... what was that?" then Ross stumbles away holding his head. I don't know if I closed it too early, or he just had his head in the wrong place or whatever, but either way, I was like, "AW SHIT!" I felt sooooo bad... =\ He was cool about it though. But still, despite the funniness of it all, I felt really, really bad. Poor guy...

Then after school, we got to talking about our English poetry project (we need t make a freaking CD...), and we had this rather long conversation that was like:

Ross: I have all the equipment, but still...
Me: I'm going to break into your house.
Ross: I'm barring my door.
Me: Wood or steel? Wait, no, it doesn't matter. I'm burning your door down.
Ross: Dude, that's arson! And... assault!
Me: It's not assault! What are you talking about? I'm not setting you on fire!
Ross: Fine! It's... DOMESTIC VIOLENCE!
Me: Um... excuse me? XDD

Yeah, I have no idea how he got domestic violence, but it was pretty damn funny. XD I cracked up for the rest of the ride because of that. Anyways, Ross is awesome. Haha.

*****

I kicked Shekhar like, 9 times during lunch today, and even though I made sure not to kick REALLY hard, apparently I tore one of his leg muscles. Oops.

*****

We played this really stupid "pickleminton" (which is badminton with stupid short little wooden paddles), so that was okay, but I would've rather played badminton. the wooden paddles have no reach whatsoever, and they're really "clumsy."
The mock trial went okay for the beginning. We only got through the openings and 1/2 of a witness though. We have a freaking poetry project due... in two weeks! -.- We need to record ourselves saying the poems, make some weird container to hold the CD, and make a "Listener's Guide." It sucks.
We just watched some documentary on global warming in biology. Interesting, but boring nevertheless.

Do with them what you will. <-- Never say those words to immature, freshman - gone - kindergartners. This is what resulted.

~ R.S.

Pure genius. We revised it during lunch though, so now it's:

I carried my wife Erica like a princess
in a fairytale, but I
cheated on her with Courtney,
and now she wants a divorce.

There were some really funny ones that weren't so much inside jokes though. These might not be totally accurate.

Taehyun (based off of "American Gothic"):
I carried my pride like a pitchfork of an angry man
in a painting, but I
never realized that my wife
was looking at me.

Mehul:

Super, Totally Awesome Reasons...

...to hate STAR.

1. It doesn't even count for your grade or anything. It's for the school. And they waste so much time "reviewing" for it that it's retarded.
2. It's not like it's even hard. You could probably totally guess on every problem based on logic and still pass. Most likely with an Advanced grade.
3. They give you wayyy too much time. Seriously? Most people finished in less than half the time provided. That's right. HALF. I was reduced to doing Sudoku, which is actually pretty fun, but whatever. (Oh well, this means I get to sleep in that much more on the days I don't have testing. ;D)
4. If this is so freakishly important to the school and teachers that they start making us do review the weeks before, WHY DO THEY GIVE HOMEWORK DURING STAR? I mean, isn't it totally obvious we'll be staying up all night to study for STAR, and therefore have no time to finish homework? *cough cough*
5. It's not like anyone cares. Seriously.
And probably many, many more, but I won't bore people with that. Psh. =P

Anyways, I need to write a poem about an influential moment in my past. Or whatever. Great. I'm probably going to end up writing about something totally stupid. Like a squished banana. Or something like that. But I sat all through lunch thinking, "What moment has been so vivid within my mind?" But due to the fact that I have short term memory, I kept drawing a blank. I have tons I could write about, and even make it sound as if it was the turning point of my life, but I won't have actually felt that feeling when I was writing it...
Maybe something simple is best.

But then how complex does a word like simplicity sound?
In essence it may be. Complex.
To achieve simplicity, an ounce of complexity is required. Always.
In all sense though, simplicity is as simple as it sounds.
A simple smile that could make your day.
A simple look that could say a thousand words.
A simple silence, understood.
A simple call, just because. Not required, but life-giving.
Simplicity at the base of all complexity, and at its demise.
*sighs*

Sometimes the simplest things are the most beautiful. For example, I saw a cat just sitting outside my front door in the sunshine, and it was just really moving for no apparent reason. Sometimes we humans are so caught up in our hectic lifestyles that we never stop and enjoy all of life's beauties. But animals know to savor life, and to get the best of every situation. Today, people complained about the heat and humidity (myself included). When it rains, we complain. When it's cold, we complain. But that cat turned all of the heat and misery into a single moment of preciousness. It was just really touching, and I don't think I'll ever take another day for granted again, good or bad.

Ice Skating!!!

Haha, it was HELLA fun. Wayne still couldn't skate by the end though. XD But yeah, it was pretty fun! Then Robyn and Sam owned all of us, 'cuz they just got onto the ice and started skating around... And it was their very first time... Plus neither of them knows how to rollerblade.
But now I have blisters on both my pinky toes. =P It's not like they hurt though. But I'm still wearing flip flops just in case. Robyn's fine too. But Davy and Sam's feet hurt, and Wayne's hands hurt from falling so much. XD

I didn't fall that much though! Yay! Haha. Wayne went to change his skates like, 5 times. I think the people at the counter got sick of him. Plus he asked for those blade stopper things that you don't skate with. XDD It was pretty funny.

Then afterwards, Davy, Sam, and I ran around 99 Ranch (Davy bought this big two liter bottle of Sunkist that he wouldn't let anyone touch), and went to the Dollar Tree. XD And Davy got one of those Peek-a-boo Pooh things. He got a pineapple. XP

Anyways, it was REALLY fun! Hm... I don't know if I should start planning something else now. =P

*****

We played more basketball in PE, and I made this hella awesome shot (I forget if it counted as a 3-pointer) from the side. I totally wasn't expecting it to go in though. XD

So basically, I was running back and forth the court the whole period, so I was really tired, and when I got into math, I started fanning myself with my hand (which is saying something, because my math class is like, -20 degrees). Then this guy, Andrew, goes up to get a tissue, looks at me, and is like, "Are you okay? It's fine, I know I'm hot." I was like, "Er... sure, whatever you say." XD Then we reviewed for STAR and yeah. It was stupid.

I finished the decoration for the hamster bath! I might add some stuff on the bottom though, I only decorated the top...

Lunch was funny. Robyn told me not to talk about what we normally do during lunch, so, I'll say that Michi gave me a cinnamon roll! Yummy! And Robyn was taking my grapes and trying to shoot them into Ross' fruit salad. XD It was hilarious.

French was boring too, we just did a ton of stuff from "Petit Nicolas." We had a sub too, so...

Haha, after school, I heard a couple of girls talking (they walked right past me to the office), and one of them was like, "I need to go stand outside and get tan." And the other said, "Yeah, I know. That's what I'm doing when I get home." So I thought, "Wow. They have less of a life than me." Bahaha.
Jeez, it's SO. FRICKING. HOT. *sighs* This is going to suck during summer... 110 degrees!!! Haha.

Gawd, we have STAR testing tomorrow... And the day after... And after that. But then we get to sleep in next week! Yay! English portion tomorrow. Joy.

Damn. My Face Hurts.

Yup. Basically, in PE (yesterday), we were playing basketball, and I managed to steal the ball from this one guy, and then John Kraska (who probably has a foot over me in height), somehow headbutted me right in the face. Really hard. As in he was clutching his head too, and seeing as skulls are really hard... So yeah. I cut my lip on my braces, and it started bleeding A LOT, even though it was a tiny cut, and now my right cheek is sort of swollen. You can't tell though, but it feels all weird and thick, and it still really hurts. XD I couldn't talk right for most of the day though, because the cut would keep rubbing against my braces, and it wasn't very pleasant. Oh yeah, one more key point. John is on my team.

History was okay. We just reviewed the Mock Trial, and watched the rest of "Seven Years in Tibet," which was a really good movie.

I really failed the essay potion of the myth test. DX Which is going to bring down my my English grade A TON. Oh well, there goes my A+... I was actually really proud of that though, since an A+ in English is 100% and we don't get extra credit. *sighs*. Oh well, whatever. Wheee!!! Anyways, even if I got 100% on the essay, my "Antigone" quiz would have brought it down. I think I failed that. XD
Edit: GODDAMN, I HAVE A 99%. Sooooooo close!!! But, then again, she hasn't counted the "Antigone" test yet.

Lunch was fun. I got more piggyback rides! Haha. I couldn't eat most of my lunch though (my cut lip), so I just ate a ton of strawberries. =P And basically, I told Robyn to get lower, so I could get on for a piggyback ride, so she ran around teling people that I wanted to "get on her." No idea what she meant, but apparently it was funny? o.o

The test in bio was easy; Mr. Pence seriously needs to stop giving out extra credit on all of his tests, haha. But whatever, it helps me, so I won't complain. But seriously? I got a 130% on that test (I think the maximum was 132%, and that's going to bug me because I want to know which problem I missed. XD. But he said it was 134%; then again, his math skills aren't very good. I'll elaborate later). So I think his extra credit is pretty much just worthless now. XD I swear, I don't even get why I do my homwork anymore. I could totally skip some assignments and still have an A+ in the class... Besides, I have over 100%, so even if I get full points on an assigment, it brings down my grade, which I find kind of funny. =P So back to Mr. Pence's bad math skills, he was like (talking about the extra test questions), "So, that's 12 points, plus 22 points, which is... 32 points." And we were all like, "Er..." So that was kind of funny. Then he was going over some questions on the test, and he kept insisting that the answer to a question was B, even though it was OBVIOUSLY A, so we just sort of gave up. Then after he dismissed us, Ying and I went up and talked to him, and he walked us through the problem very slowly, and was like, "So the answer is..." And we plug in, "A." And he goes, "*looks at A, looks at B, tells the class* Wait guys! The answer to that one question was A! Not B!" It was rather funny. XD

*****

We played more basketball and I scored a point! For the other team. XD I hate half-court basketball, because I always forget to bring it out (since my old PE class played it differently; I transferred to A period PE second semester). Like, with full court, you aren't aiming for the same basket, so I never have that issue. But whatever. They didn't count it. =P

We changed seats in math. -.- But otherwise, nothing really happened. No pop quiz. *gasp* I went to help Lisa with math, and I was done with the worksheet, so I brought the book, and Mrs. Turbeville got mad at me.
Turbeville: What are you doing out of your seat?
Me: Homework? And helping Lisa.
Turbeville: But she's working on test corrections.
Me: ... Uh... I can still help her?
Tommy: She's helping me!
Me (thinking): Psh, yeah right, like Tommy needs help. (saying) We work in a very efficient triangle. *points to Lisa, then Tommy, then myself, and back to Lisa*
It was kind of funny, but whatever.

I finished the basic hamster bath shape. I just have decorations left. I actually think it's really nice, it's shaped like an egg, and it's divided into two. I made a notch and cap to connect them, and I have a strip of clay to act as support. I sort of want to keep it for myself now... XD Oh well. Maybe I'll have time to make another one? If not, maybe I'll just steal it back when I get my own hamster. =P

French was boring. We're starting a book! *gasp* But it's made for elementary kids. XD

But... but... BUTT!

Haha, I'll explain that later. =P

Anyways, I epically FAILED in soccer today. I sorta kicked a ball that Alex was aiming for, because everyone was coming towards it, and I totally missed the goal. XD Then I was trying to steal the ball from someone, then Alex come over, sorta steals it, and boots it really hard towards me, whereon it BOUNCES off my shoe and rolls out of bounds. -.- Anyways, it was pretty bad. But whatever.

History was okay. We took the Mock Trial which, which I got a 28/30 on. Blech. I know I missed "change of venue," because I totally forgot "venue," so I put "change of location." Bahaha. I don't know what the other one was though. But it's really sad, because I was in Mock Trial and should therefore know this stuff...
We watched more of "Seven Years in Tibet," which is really interesting. I like it! =D

The plays in English were nice. I soooo should've brought my camera! Mehul had to wear this fluffy, girly princess tiara which said "Happy Birthday"' on it, because he was the king, and they needed a "crown." XD
Then we watched some old play thing, which was SOOOOOOOOO boring...

Okay, so now for the "butt" part. =P Basically, every time Robyn and I "argue," it goes like:
Robyn: "That's stupid."
Me: "You're stupid."
Her: "Your mom's stupid," or "Your butt."
So today, she was giving me piggybacks rides again (yay! I miss those. ;D), then when she put me down, I was talking about her watching "The SHINee World," and to clarify, I was like, "It's by SHINee." So she said, "Well, duh. Who else would it be by?" So I was like, "Well, just in case you thought it was 'shiny.' Like, shiny stuff." Then, she countered with, "Your face is shiny." So without thinking, I was like, "Your butt is shiny." Then I was like, "Wait. No." But by then we were cracking up sooo bad.
Then Robyn goes and tells Sean, "Erica's seen my butt!!!" So I'm like, laughing hella hard, then Robyn tells me to look at Sean, so I turn, and he has this totally awesome, "what the heck?" look on his face. So it was hecka awesome. =P

Bio was sort of fun. Basically, this student (Gallardo, sp?) was sucking up to Mr. Pence, so he actually gave him test bonus points. XD Then Phil (the TA), comes in, looks at Brandon Linkheart, and says in this really official voice, "Citizenship grade. Down." So Mr. Pence actually lowers it 5%. XD After that, it was boring. We reviewed more evolution/ecology. Then we took this practice STAR test that was pretty easy, so... Yeah. STAR testing next week... Blech.

Yearbooks Rock!!!

Haha, I love looking through old yearbooks! And my ID cards. ;) It's so funny to see what people wrote in your yearbook. Like Taehyun was like, "You get any smarter and I'll shoot you" in my yearbook, and Toby had his little "fail" straight line drawing spree. XD

Then I love looking at my sister's yearbooks too (high school ones). It's so awesome to see what comments she made and what people looked like. XD Hey Ramon, if you're reading this, your frosh ID picture is like ADORABLE. Bahaha. It's like, little kid cuteness!!!

Well, today was joyful. I actually tried in PE, which was sad, since no one else did. Haha. I never scored though... I just stole the soccer ball and ran down the field. =P

LOL, I got my highest math test score so far, on a test that I was certain I failed. Wahahaha. XD

I started my sister's hamster bath thing, and I'm not sure if my design is going to work out, but I hope it does... We can start glazing too, so I think I'm going to glaze my little china set. XD Then I'll do my bust. But I have to finish my candle holder too, rofl.

French was boring. We did some book activities, a few speaking ones. I wish we played more games... Like Bluff-O-Mania! That stuff is fun!!!

I stole Ross' coin again. It was Australian today though. XD Not a quarter.

Yesterday was pretty boring too. Didn't try in PE. Then, again we had our old teams ysterday, so...

We had Officer Ransom come in and talk about his Glock, which has 46 rounds, and taser, pepper spray, handcuffs (they're cool black ones too!), his three radios... Haha. It was awesome. I like that dude. ;)

English was iffy. We got our myth tests back (well, the objectives part), and I ended up with 100%, with my bonus buck (which is two points). W00t w00t!!! I think I failed the essay portion though... Oh well. Then we need to act out parts of "Antigone" tomorrow. I have this big huge long monologue thing, and I am going to be SO out of breath...

Bio was boring too. Tons of ecology review, vocab, etc. Mr. Pence rambled on about flying planes and forgot why he brought it up though, so that was rather amusing.

I'm going ice skating Sunday! Yay! Courtney didn't want to go, so I invited Robyn, and she wants to go, so It's probably going to be me, her, Davy, Sam, and Wayne. We're going to trip all over the place, and all the little pro 5 year-old skaters are going to be like, "What's up with them?" It's going to be so fun though! =P

Bowling!!! (Fail)

Bahaha. Guess what my game total was? Like... 45. XD Or I don't know. I might have been a bit more. =P But anyways, it was somewhere around there.
Anyways, we (Davy, Sam, Chrison, Kevin, Sling, Jess, Jess' Canadian friend Ryan, and I) all went to Earl Anthony's Dublin bowl, and epically failed at bowling, except "Mr. I-don't-know-how-to-bowl" Davy, who got like, 4 strikes. He ended up with 107. Which is kind of sad, seeing as he pwned us all, and the game is out of 300. Haha. Anyways, bowling was fun, then we went to the "arcade" and shot up some people. Then I raced Davy in that car game, and epically failed at that too. 7th place!!! Hey, at least I wasn't last. =P It shows how much Spring Break has killed my brain though, because it took me like, a full minute to count how many people we had. XD

Then we went to GameStop and played games there. Bahaha. Wario is sooooooo stupid! Kirby rocks though. ;)

Afterwards, we went to Petsmart and looked at the fish, birds, and hamsters. OMG, there was this ADORABLE hamster there which didn't even bite me, and I soooooooo wanted to get it, but my parents wouldn't let me. -.- It was retarded. *tear* I loved that hamster...
And I scared Davy with a stuffed bunny (which he thought was real, roflmao), and those feather cat toys (which he is apparently afraid of because he doesn't like big, black, furry objects). It was rather funny. =P

Afterwards, we just hung out in front of Panera Bread, mooched off Jimmy (at least, I did), and talked.

But anyways, the day was hella fun! Now I have to go plan ice skating... ;)
