Yes!

Hooray! I have one name to cross off my Christmas gift list! One down, 10,000 to go....

Starbucks warms you up and burns your throat. So tasty ! Though next time, I need to get more shots of peppermint, because I can still taste too much coffee.

Stupid song! Get out of my head! Kanye West has dug his way into my head and permanently embeded "Love Lockdown" in my brain. Ah! Now this is just plain annoying... I'm not crazy about the song, but the album artwork is quite pretty...

But the new Killers is pretty good!

And Phil Wickham...

Lo siento

I just came back from the Mock Trial competition, and we lost! I feel so bad for everyone, they all worked so hard. Seriously, I think every single one of them was failing in school because they had to stay at school until 11 practicing and not doing their homework.....or at least just my sister. I wish I did something at school, be apart of some kind of group. I need to do something highschool-ly at FVHS, something!

Holy Cow. Its a 20x20 In-N-Out hamburger!! Slightly grotesque, but intriguing! People are disgusting...

Zoom zoom zooma zoom

Ahhh, I remember my elementary school days with the Roxy sweatshirts, Converse, and high ponytails. I was such a nerd! I used to slick back all my hair in a super high ponytail on top of my head, and I was so proud of it. All day, everyday. I used to get headaches because I pilled back my hair so tight! And gel! Gel was my close companion throught those years, never failing to slick back my flyaways until you saw the sun reflecting on the top of my head.

It makes me sad to see how fast kids are growing up these days. What happened to the good ol days where cell phones were scarcely seen and Zoom was the best show on TV? (Or was it that Mary-Kate and Ashley cartoon?) Now 2nd graders have cell phones! Crazzy kids


Kenny and Caroline from Zoom! I had the biggest crush on him when I was growing up...

Think about it

Flight of the Conchords is amazing! If you haven't watched the show yet, I must sit you down and for 5 or so hours and have a marathon. Hilarious!

My internet has been PMSing all week, and it only comes it in short bursts of time, so I'm trying yo type as fast as I can, but then I end up making more mistakes, and in the end, no one wins. Blech, I wish I had my own computer, it would make things so much easier. Right now I'm on my mom's new fancy-schmancy laptop, and its so incredibly fast, I can't process everything fast enough. I'm used to waiting to clicking on a page and having to wait a good 2 or 3 minutes for the page to finally pop up (where during that time, I usually do a couple homeowrk problems, or grab a snack in the kitchen), but this pops up in seconds! I bet everyone else's computer is like that except mine... eh, oh well, I'm used to it! (Kathy said that using myt computer taught her lessons on patience, so thats a bonnus!)

I finally finished reading A Tale of Two Cities by the great and comlicated Charles Dickens, and I really liked it! Once you get over the confusing language and lack of pictures, its a fantastic book.

Ok, I'm getting kicked off the computer now by my little sister....

Hiccups

And we're off! The Christmas decorations are up and the tree is alive and well. Just need to start my Christmas shopping with the incredibly low budget I have...time to get creative!

Daisy, my dad, and I spent an 1 1/2 hours at Home Depot picking out a Christmas tree. Right when you get into the lot, the smell of pine trees slams you in the face and you get into the holiday spirit. Daisy and I spent a good 45 minutes trying to look for a good tree while my dad was inside Home Depot returning some goods. After numerous attempts, and having a tree fall and me and tripping on a parking lot curb, we thought we found the perfect tree. Then my dad comes along, and we realize that the bottom was not full enough and it was crooked. Feeling depressed, Daisy and I dropped the tree and went out to search for another prospect, when my dad said, "How about this one." and grabbed a plant right beside him. We cut the strings off, and voila! Its our tree! What took my sister and I an hour took my dad 10 minutes.....
I think I might stay home next year!

Gentle rain

My mom bought this bottle of fabric freshner from Big Lots, and its kinda like Febreze. On the back of the bottle it says...



Eliminates smoke, cooking and pet odors from virtually all types of fabrics. Works quikly to safely clean odors fromo household fabrics, leaving only a light, refreshing scent of gentle rain.



How do you know what gentle rain smells like? Crazy folks!



I just finished cleaning my closet and it took longer than I thought it would, 30 minutes! I know I'm a slob, but I guess I didn't think it was that bad til now. I could have watched an episode of How I Met Your Mother in half an hour! Or made an omelette, or study for the multiple quizzes occuring tomorrow! Ah, I need someone to slap me in the face now and then and kick me off the computer to actually get things done...



mmmm....the house smells like cornbread and cinnamon pinecones! I love my mom

mmm...mmm...good

This tiny little picture does not do this justice, but it was the most attractive picture I could find

Mochi = delicious brainfreeze
