My firsts and lasts

I'm sorry I couldn't post videos...only on youtube and I don't even have an account. Nothing much is happening, I'm just sitting here in my PJs and a Hollister sweatshirt looking at the snow from my kitchen window. It would be even better though if all my CA friends were sitting next to me also in their PJs and a sweatshirt amazed by the snow floating to the wet ground.
Since nothing has really happened recently, I've decided to write about my Firsts and Lasts. Things like first crushes (sorry boys: but, you've all had one too), first NJ b-day party, and last year at Bear Tavern (also known as Beer Tavern), last year at Olive School, and everything else I can think of.
FIRSTS:
First NJ b-day party: Rachel's, We went to that Hannah Montana 3D concert and then we went to a pizza parlor after.
First tooth: Lost it at my old preschool I was visiting when I was 5 or 6.
First few careers for me: Ballerina, Baker, or an astronaut
First year at Bear Tavern: Still going through the process
LASTS:
Last year at Olive School: Miserable! I couldn't leave the darn building!
Last year at Bear Tavern: Can't Wait!!
Last spelling bee: Last Year when I misspelled lieutenant.
Last REAL smile: never.

Any friends who read this, please call or email me!! I need to hear from you...

Memories on movies

I feel like Forrest Gump, getting on the bus every morning, saying "hello" to the bus driver and calling her by her name. She scares me a little bit, she has purple tattooed eyebrows and a skinny, wrinkly neck and she's hard to talk to, and she's obsessed with Harley Davidsons. At least she's not a snot ball and yells at kids every time they laugh really loudly.

Anyway, today, my sister and I were watching old videos with us, such as the first day of kindergarten, when we camped out at Brennan Island, and normal days. I'll try to post a few videos later so you can watch. It's so funny to see you again and crack up at the things that happen.

In one video, we were at a creek in Ashland, Oregon, and my cousin picked up some socks and stuck them in the creek. He started teasing my dad and saying, "I got your socks wet! I got your socks wet!"

My dad said, "Uh...those aren't my socks, those belong to somebody else."

A man walked up and told him those were his socks and my cousin gave them to him and looked at the camera all humiliated. The man laughed and put them on.

Also, on the first day of kindergarten, I saw all my friends, they were all so little and innocent. I was also crying. Ha, ha. My sister was laughing as though it was a joke. I felt bad for myself.

Well, have fun watching you own movies!! Keep reading.

Happy, Happy B-day! And other stuff...

Yesterday was my brother's birthday! He is 5 now and thinks he can do anything! We gave him a quad as a family gift, I gave him a racoon webkinz and a shirt for it, and Caroline got him a pirate lego set. We went to Ruby Tuesday and the waitors sang happy birthday to him. He was smiling and became all rosy-red. It was really great for him.

This morning, we rode his quad ( a kid's 4 wheel motorcycle) and it was soo fun. The only bad thing is, you had to wear this big, bulky motorcycle helmet.

Nothing AMAZING happened this week or recently. Oh, my mom and I are starting a book club. We havn't figured out the details yet though.

Ok, I'm blabbering all this nonsense because I have nothing to write...

Well, it snowed a lot on Thursday and my friend tore her legaments, whatever they are, and...uh...how about I just write another time with more interesting things.

I'll be updating pics tomorrow. I'll be back next weekend with a better topic!! :)

I feel RICH!

My Dad had a meeting in Brooklyn, so our family stayed in NYC as a special occasion. It was great!

Our Hotel was the Marriot Marquis in Times Square. Our room was a suite with fabulous modern furniture and 2 flat screen TVs. Our room was 44 out of 45 floors. We had a killer view! Our elevators were clear, so Caroline, Dana and I would watch the outside.

For dinner, we went to Mars 2112. It was an amazing experience! First, we went in a space ship with a screen showing us where we were. We were going to Mars. When we got there the room was full of people dressed in silver metallic suits. There were 3 aliens: Empress Glorianna, QT π, and Captain Orion. The food wasn't the best, but the room looked like Mars and everyone friendly! Even best, I danced with QT π!!

This morning we had a nice buffet and my tooth fell out... I know, that was random, but it's true! Then, we took a subway and looked around in stores. On the subway back to the hotel, there were women in make-up, dresses, and point shoes standing still to be a statue, and when you gave them tips, the would do a quick dance. We drove back home and I'm here now, but it was great.

I'll write next weekendish!! Keep reading!

Our Goats (left to right: Eloise, Happy, Matisse)

Baaa! All day long...

Christmas is over...New Year is over, we came back...here.

Anyway, look at the bright side...Our GOATS are here! Let me tell you about them.

Mine: Eloise is a girl. Her favorite color is *white. She is the mother of Matisse and Happy. Her favorite foods are maple leaves, teddy grahams, and my hair. Eloise is white with giant black spots. Her favorite things to do are eat and sleep. Her favorite word is Baa!!

Caroline's: Matisse is a boy. His favorite color is black because he is black. He is the son of Eloise and the brother of Happy. His favorite activity is showing that he has more power than Happy and Eloise. Matisse is Black with medium white spots. Matisse's favorite foods are corn and teddy grahams. He likes to chew on zippers and Shoe laces to get attention.

Dana's: Happy is a girl. Her favorite color is Peach because she has peach spots. She is the younger sister of Matisse and the daughter of Eloise. Happy is white with peach spots. She is very shy and follows her mother. Happy is not aggressive, she just follows along. Her favorite foods are pine needles and Animal crackers. Her favorite activities are spinning, day-dreaming and sleeping. Happy loves to be warm.

Here is how to take care of the goats: 1. Feed them hay or corn. 2. Refill their water. 3. Clean them up. 4. Feed them teddy grahams or animal crackers. 5. Give them attention.

I'll write next weekend. Keep reading!

* she is attracted to it very much!!

7 hour car drive

I'm so sorry I have not written in so long! It's been more than a month!

I'm in southern California right now. I've been here for about an hour or so. The car ride was horrific! We had set off from a breakfast with my friends this morning and we were in a small rental Taurus Ford for 7 1/2 hours. I fell asleep for the first 2 hours, and when I woke up I was sick as heck! An hour and a half later, we stopped at Taco Bell and I got a lemonade and nothing else. My sister and brother got quesadillas which I hate and it stunk up the whole car. No offence to my sister, but she took off her shoes and that made the car smell even worse! Anyway, we played a game called Bagels which my teacher used to play last year, then we sang songs in Australian accents. A few hours later we were in traffic and my mom said, "Every black car you find you get a penny, and every red car 5 cents, and every limo 10 cents. I earned $1.54, but we all got $5 for being good sports. We finally got here! I know this might be boring but it's all true. This trip is worth it! I mean it's so hard to move from a school that you've been in since kindergarten into a new one that treats you like you're in high-school.

I'll write on a better topic next weekendish. Keep reading!
