Spiders and cell phones

Be honest with my for a minute. Have you ever had this random spider come and attack you in the bathroom? 'cause I now have. Two days ago, I went into the bathroom and saw this random black spider crawling through this thingy that hangs on our wall in front of the toilet. I couldn't really do anything about it. So, I come in the next day to take a shower. The spider is on the wall beside the shower. I decided to delay it for a while. I came back later and the spider was gone...so I went ahead and took it.

My mom and I went to Starbucks the other day to use the last of my gift card from my B-day. We watched these weird people walk in and out of Jungle Jims while sitting outside drinking our Starbucks. At one point this weirdo person wearing a gray suit and like this old person hat walked in. I missed it, but I did get so see him come back out. Then this dude wearing all white went in. O M G.

While we were sitting there in awkward silence I asked, "How many days 'till Heros comes out?" I knew that it couldn't be very much longer since Warriors was coming out in six days. "What day is it?" My mom asked excitedly. Right..."Six days till September 1rst." Dun dun dun dun...Turns out Heros came out that day. Wow. That honestly went by pretty fast. On the way back home Shannon called. I had heard that we were getting rid of our land line and we might be getting rid of our phones, making me to have to get a Cell Phone. I answered it and told her that we had Heros, but even better, Sha told me that I was getting my phone tonight and I would have unlimited texting (don't ask me why). I guess my phone was free because of this random special deal because of where my Dad works.

My phone is a silvery-purple-blueish color thingy. I like it. I text like an old grandma though. Shannon is complaining already about how slow I am.

I went back upstairs and into the bathroom. I'm washing my hands and all of the sudden this long black scary thing crawls into the sink. I began screaming bloody murder until my Dad came into the bathroom. We finally killed the dumb spider which wanted to eat me. It wanted me and only me, since it wouldn't come out for anyone else. But it could have been nicer about it. I mean, be real.

So, yeah. Spiders are not my thing, and they want to eat me.

Cheese

I recently came upon these pictures. I find the cheese one funny. And the one with the Mom or whatever is pretty amusing. That's something my Dad would do :P. Cheese pictures are pretty amazing. I should throw cheese at Sha Sha sometime soon.

WEEEEEE.........

Adventures are happening every day, I have to say. Acting Class ended a few weeks ago. I cant get it out of my mind though. I'm still having nightmares about it. Don't laugh. I have lots of issues I know. It went pretty well...The first dress rehearsal was bad because I had never had to run back and change as fast as lightning before. But after I did it once and had a good place for my pile I was fine. Everything went okay as far as I know. (I wouldn't know actually because for most of it I was in the dressing room changing) Ugh. It was very stressful. We had too much changing I know.

When I walked into the door that first day of the show, I was shaking to death. Everything was wild. I forgot how it happened...I remember sitting down with Shannon and thinking about all of the stuff I could mess up on. My friend, Jessica, didn't seem very stressed out and neither did Shannon. Most of the people seemed really excited. I was in my own personal, whirling, fiery, stress. Yeah. Though its not the worst thing that's EVER happened to me. I can think of one or two other things. RAWER!

Well, when April finally came to call us back I almost passed out. We had to go and get our play clothes on and wow. I didn't get to be with Shannon or Jessie. I was stuck with the flowers, the dodo bird, the rock lobsters, and the other Cardsmen/grass/ ect. I only had one or two friends. Its amazing how close everyone had gotten since the very first day. We literally sat in the dressing rooms for two hours straight until they finally had us go to our places for the dress rehearsal. That went pretty smooth.

Then, after that, we went back and ate pizza. Shannon and I were careful and only drank water. The kids were probably thinking that we were freaks. But hey? Being a freak is fun. I was pretty relaxed by then. It was funny, cause when we went downstairs and were preparing for the show, everyone was stressing. I knew that if we had made it through two dress rehearsals, that we could make it through this.


When we FINALLY went to our places for the offical show, everything seemed bad again. When we had still been downstairs, we had already seen the people in the first and second row. What was the rest like? The bad thing was that the doors were closed and we couldn't hear the music. We were forced to crack the door open so we could hear our cue. Ugh. We were on the Balcony place inside of a small hall, about the size of an elavater. There were five of us.

It went good from there.



Two days ago we had a garage sale. It was fun watching all of the people come and go. Hehe. We painted my nails black today! I WUV IT!

UGH THIS IS ONE OF THOSE WEEKS!

Here we go...

Last week Shannon and I started going to our acting class. It's a play about Alice in Wonderland. I thought when Sha and I got our packets "Omg this is gonna be so much fun!" Dun, dun, dun dun....I was horribly wrong! We have to do these crazy dances that I can barely even figure out! If I cant do the stretches in the beginning of class I cant do these! Its four hours every day from one to 5. God! I'm so annoyed. Its intense and boring. Sha has it way easier then I do. Well...Maybe its close because she has to sing a solo in a costume that looks entirely idiotic. I'm not worried about very much other then the fact that I have to go back and change as fast as lightning like five times! And I have to wear a long sleeved black shirt and long black pants! Ugh! Its hot enough during practice and I'm wearing a tank top and shorts! (This is obviously gonna be hard).

I'm just glad I don't have to sing a long solo like Shannon.

So far its felt like the class is for like ten hours. I don't get it. I've only managed to have fun one of the days. I'm not sure if I can survive another week, you know? At least we get the weekend off.


I walked inside the place feeling ready to burst with excitement. When I got in...That was a different story. I was suddenly nervous. I knew what my part was. Royal cardsmen/Grass/Late chorus/Sea creature. I had no idea that I was going to have to change like crazy for all of those. First, we did all kinds of crazy stretches. I could only get like two of them right....And then we had to go through like three of the songs step by step with the music dude that I for some reason don't like.



I'm not sure what day it was when we had to learn the dance the caucus race. As the Dodo bird sang "Everybody take your place, before we start the caucus race" all of us were stretching. And to think I thought it was going to be easy. At one point we had to run off stage...and...

UGH UGH UGH!

Age and hunger

So, I'm ten now. It feels weird, 'cause I still feel like I'm nine. Its gonna be hard getting used to calling myself ten.

This year I didn't want to have a Birthday Party. Is that weird? And I also couldn't figure out what I wanted. I probably would have been fine if I didn't even get anything, as long as we got something fixed with the deck. But are we even doing that? Hmm, I wonder. My mom got my Mp3 player to work, which is enough for me. Woo, I wont be using my Mom's Ipod anymore. Shannon is on her last day of SOS, so today is rather special. Oh yes, and I'm sure Bitty will be happy with that too.

Being ten feels weird. Okay, I'm starving, I must get my parents to make dinner! ATTACK THE PARENTS, AWAY!

Burns

Last night around 10:00 I just so happened to be eating Ramon Noodles or something. I didn't think and poured it all into the bowl at once, and I tried to pick it up so I could carry it across the room...And you know what happened? I immediately dropped it again, spilling the boiling hot water all over my hand. It hurt like heck, and I screamed. Luckily my mom was coming inside from talking to her Mom, and Shannon was there too. It hurt for a while and when it started getting white we went to the emergency room just to be careful. I pretty much had to keep it in water for it to not hurt like heck. When they finally took me back they made me step on the scale thingy, and I weighed 76 pounds. I didn't find that shocking because I was so tall. When the lady took me into the one place she had me put my hand in this cool stuff and that made it feel a lot better. The doctor person didn't look too concerned, so I stopped shaking a bit, though I wasn't happy with having to take my hand out of the water stuff. My hand was all red and stuff, which didn't make me happy. I finally fell asleep around 5:00 when I had taken pain medicine and this other stuff. I had to sleep with my hand on ice. I woke up and it still doesn't hurt right now so hopefully I'll get some time off of the pain for a bit.

Library Adventures with Sha and Caity

So me and Sha were sitting outside of the Library, waiting for our mom. we started jokingly smacking each other and a Cop came up and said "Hey, stop smacking each other," I wasn't sure what to do, then i saw his joking expression. I've always had a fear of Cops. "Wait, are you two sisters?" he asked after a moment.

it was Shannon who replied that time, "yes," she was trying not to giggle from what i saw.


"Oh, then its okay. i used to beat my little brother up when I was a kid. But now he's like this much taller then me–" he put his hand a few feet above his head. "–and like this big. so i cant do it anymore." Shannon was smiling now, while i did too. I didn't think i had ever met a Cop that was funny.


The Cop appeared to be a nerd with a big nose and glasses. i had wondered if he was married. Shannon said something i didn't catch, and at the same moment i had heard the sound of an ice cream truck. then the Cop spoke again, but quieter, "Where is that strange music coming from? it sounds like an ice cream truck,"

Shannon again giggled, "Yea." i heard her say, but i was busy trying to figure out where it was coming from.


after a little while noise started coming from his radio thingy. "someone on the highway on a bike got hit. i repeat; someone on the highway on bike got hit." the talking wasn't very clear, so i hadn't really been able to hear it very well. all i knew was that something happened to a dude on a bike. "Uh-oh," the Cop groaned, before walking into the library. i sat there for a moment, trying not to laugh. Shannon was laughing too. "Well, i guess he had to take a crap before he went to the highway or whatever." Sha giggled. i nodded my agreement, before i had caught sigh of my mom.


Oh my gosh it was funny!
