@#$%

I'm in SUCH a bad mood right now.

So congratulation's to all you official bloggers out there. Have fun with your stupid gift card. While the rest of us just stand by and watch you guys gloat. And even though I've been blogging for over a year now, longer than some of the official bloggers, all I get is criticism. No, no one cares that I had to put my cat down. No one cares that I was dragged to a funeral for someone I barely knew two days before my birthday. And you know, it really sucks that because I'm 2,000 miles from Texas, I get that gift card TWO WEEKS after you guys do. So while I watch everyone flaunt their stupid gear all I can do is watch. Sure, it doesn't matter that the bullying is getting worse, and now other kids are joining in. Picking on me, shooting me looks like I'm a freak.

Oh, and by the way, I'm quitting blogging. I've thought about this for a while now, and I think I should go through with it. I'll post now and then, but for now, I'm done. It's too much of a hastle. I'll be on Wizard101, and Twitter, and Skype, and Facebook, but for the time being, it looks like this is

Goodbye.

"I'm Nobody! Who are you?
Are you – Nobody – too?
Then there's a pair of us?
Don't tell! They'd advertise – you know!

How dreary – to be – Somebody!
How public – like a frog –
To tell one's name – the livelong June –
To an admiring Bog!" -Emily Dickinson

I'm Gonna Miss You, Rose.

So some of you know that my cat has cancer. We found out it was cancer is August, they said she'd have four months to live. It was a lump growing in her muscle, and it's been getting really big lately. It finally broke through the skin recently, which means she'll be in a lot of pain and bleeding everywhere. My mom says we'll have to put her down soon. I hope sh can last until my birthday, but my mom doesn't think so. My birthday's in 15 days. I've been with her since I was three. I knew the day would come, but I was just hoping she would last until August 1 so she could be 10. If you've been reading my blog for a while, you'll remember how upset I was when Mickey died. I knew Mickey for six months. I've known Rose for nine years. I still remember the day we got her. My mom and I walked into the adoption room, where tons of cats came out. My mom was kneeling and bent over while we both looked through all the kittens. I looked up, and there was a little black and white kitten with an uneven mustache climbing on my mom's back. I pointed to her "I want that one!". She asked me what I wanted to name her. I said Blackrose, Rose for short. We took her home and let her out of the crate. She jumped out and started attacking the dust floating in the room. A few hours later, after she had explored the house, she was curled up on the chair in the family room. I was sitting on the floor, watching Spongebob. My mom was asleep on the couch. I knew how cats could be picky and not like you at first, so I decided to sit at the other side of the chair, and get closer as she got used to me. To my surprise, she looked up, walked over, and sat down right next to me. She picked us. I was hers. She was mine. She's my first cat, and I'll never forget her.

The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston

So, I took a trip to (as the title suggests) The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston! YAAAAY! I went with Alura, her sister, Rebecca, and our irl friend, Shale, along with my mom and Alura and Rebecca's mom. We went to see the Dale Chihuli exhibit, but we saw some other things too. I took 109 PICTURES!!!! I put them into 3 different slide shows so you could see. It would have been 1 long one, but Slide put a temporary photo limit on their slides. Please take the time to look through all of them, they only take about 5 minutes, and there are some really cool pictures.

I do expect comments on this!

Cya!

p.s. I got a 3DS and it's EPICLY AWESOME!

A Rough Patch, Inspiration, and a Rant (not in that order)

Yea, not in order.... So I've been going through a hard time in my life. Kira's getting worse, and it's anti-bullying week in our school. Yay. It's miserable. Tell ya what, guidance counselors, if you actually want to do something about the bullying, deport Kira. Being bullied is like being in a dark room with no way out. You try to break through the wall, you break your foot. You give up, you betray yourself...that's the one thing you can't do. I almost hit Kira in the lunch room the other day. Fist clenched, knuckles white, muscles tense, the whole deal. I don't know if suspension would be worth it. I wish they would stop the anti-bullying week, because it just makes the victims feel worse. I cried for an hour while I was in the shower. So, while I'm in this rough patch, thanks for all your support. *insert sarcasm here* Because that's the next thing I want to talk about. I know this is going to sound all whiny, but we've all had these posts, so don't be a hypocrite. I'm really sick of not being an official blogger. When you think of a famous blogger, you think Friendly, Alia, Kestrel, Stephen. Not Donna. Never Donna. When you think of those bloggers who've been around forever and aren't going anywhere, that's when you think of Donna. And you know, it really sucks when you go to a big blogger party and everyone just thinks of you as another one of those desperates trying to get someone famous to add them just so they can brag to their friends that they know someone famous. And something else, and I know you don't care, but I'm gonna say it anyway. Every time after I work my butt off to make a post, I check the comments. So, I always check the comments. And it really makes me feel unappreciated when I see "0 comments". So please. It doesn't have to be long, just share your thoughts. Seriously, it takes two minutes. And, the last thing............... You don't get to find out. That's the thing. COMMENT your guess on what you think it is. I will then pick the top four most popular guesses and make a poll out of them around, say, Wednesday. (I'm on vacation this week) Alright, so start guessing!

Lots of Pictures in This Post (25!)

Yup, you heard right! 25 pictures! Don't you look at me like that, I had a lot to show you. What with our countdown surprise, the contests (no, I'm not hosting one), my garden, and so much more! Hmm...I'll start off with my garden, save the best until last. I've seriously started to take up gardening, this is my MFP garden. I'm going to get rid of it once everything turns elder. My stinkweed is in solitary confinement.

Here's a young prickly bear cactus, two adult desparagus, and a young baby carrot.

Bread fruit bush, rye bread fruit bush (upper right), and a cornbread fruit bush (lower middle.)

This is my King Parsley, but if you ask me he looks more like King Broccoli.

Deadly helephant ears, helephant ears, silver trumpet vines as seedlings, evil snow peas, honey sickle, young evil magma peas, laugh-o-dil (I would help it out, but uh...)

and next to it is going to be a pink laugh-o-dil.

Those two young dandelions are going to be pink and orange. Then I have a ninja fig and boom shroom.

Snap Dragon! :D

~~~~~~

I made a little scene, you can guess what's going on, can't you?

Mwahahahahahaha......

~~~~~~

And now, for our April Fool's day surprise countdown, we have.................................THE ROCK PET! In my opinion it's so goofy it's cute, so I bought one.

Impossible to tell the difference, right?

That's what it does when you scold it (click to enlarge).

I built mine a rock habitat. Look to the far right, it's Selena Gomez!

That's the end of the rock dance, he jumps in the air. (sorry for the weird order on the rock dance)

Begining of the rock dance, he twirls around.

My rock habitat at large.

Random picture. So, by now you probably all know about Ravenwood Radio's contest for the sunshine pony mount. Well, last night I competed, and guess what? I WON! That's right, I'm now one of only FIVE people who have a sunshine pony. Here are some pics. Sun on it's rear :P I love its eyes. Ta-da! *sparkle sparkle* Well, that's it from me.

Cya!

Upcoming Events + A Short, School-Related Rant

First of all, sorry, no Seven today. Sorry if I let you down, but I'll post more of it this weekend. It's just hard to find time to write it on school days.

And, here it comes, the rant! So we started on the reproductive system in Life Science class today. Actually, I'm not going to say anything about how "weird" or "disturbing" it is. My dad is a COLLEGE HEALTH AND FITNESS TEACHER. I was five when he started telling me about mitochondria. Is it any wonder I have an A is Science Class? I think not. But as I was saying, I'm here to rant about how immature everyone's being. OH. MY. GOD. It's how you were born, it's how your parents were born, it's how most of your pets were born, it's how every mammal (accepting the platypus, freaky little creature...) in the history of the world was born. GET OVER YOURSELF! You can't live without 'em, everyone person on the planet has 'em, so suck it up and DO YOUR WORK! It's just part of life. (by the way, for those of you who don't know how it works, don't ask me, I'll leave that to your parents and teachers.) You can't go on believe that storks bring children. You want kids one day, don't you?

So, now that we're done with that, what you've all been waiting for. Spring is here, even though we got snow last night (CURSE YOU, NEW ENGLAND WEATHER!), and that means it's the start of butterfly season. I've raised butterflies from caterpillars two years previous, and now I'm doing it again. I know you always see little kids in those commercials, but it's not childish at all. It's really cool. To see those tiny little caterpillars (eggs, sometimes, depending on when they arrive) turn into cocoons, and then butterflies? It's the coolest thing ever! You get to feed them, and watch them grow, they may look skittish, but they really trust you. When I let mine go, there was one that didn't wanna come out. I stuck my finger into their container, and it climbed onto it. When I lifted my finger up, it didn't fly away until it was outside. So I'm going to order them again this year. Either five or ten, it depends if you can get the special order online, I already have the holder. Perhaps you picked up on the hints? This time, I'm sharing it with you. Yup! A video everyday, posted up here...hopefully...there may be no videos some days, and a couple another. But the really awesome thing is, after you release them, you'll see them around your house. And, the next spring and summer, you'll see their descendants, even though they've never even been to the place you released them. Oh, and in the videos, once they become butterflies, you'll see these red blotches in places. Don't worry, it's not butterfly blood. It's...uh....their...uh....waste...products........ANYWAY........................

Cya!

Chapter Two
~Kimberly~

She had green eyes that lit up like flames, and brown hair put up into pigtails tat stuck out of the side of her head. She struck me as a hippie at first, ripped, bell-bottom jeans, flowery shirt, and dirty, worn sandals. “Sorry,” she said, helping me up and dusting off her jeans. “I was in a rush, I was trying to-” Get away from something watching you. She didn’t have to finish the sentence. I knew what she was going to say. “Never mind. You’d think I was crazy if I told you. My name’s Kimberly, by the way.” Looking at all the scattered seed packets (among which was an ipod), I said “I’m Allison, why are you carrying all these seeds?” She grinned, picking up her belongings “Follow me.”
She led me to a little spot in the center of town that I didn’t even know existed. It was hidden from sight by buildings, and it didn’t look like it belonged to any of them, because if it did, it would be in much better shape. I stood knee-deep in weeds, which surrounded a moldy fountain—on which rats were crawling—and overrun a couple of classic park benches. “It was ten times worse when I found it.” Kimberly said. “I asked each of the owners of the buildings if they wanted it, and they said no, so I asked them if I could have it. They said it was a dirty old park that couldn’t be fixed, so they let me have it. Said no matter how much I weeded it would stay the same. But they don’t know me. I’ve got the greenest thumb around, and I can fix up any garden ‘til it’s lusher than the Garden of Eden ever was, no matter how bad a state of repair it’s in. Wanna help?” I looked around; it was going to be some project, but I wasn’t one to back down from a challenge. So I said, “Sure.”
Then that feeling came back. That feeling that someone was watching me, only this time, it felt threatening. I looked around, no one was there, but I could see Kimberly felt it too. Have to get away. Something told me, “Uh, I really should get going.” I said, “I mean, it’s getting late, my parents’ll be worried. But I’ll meet you here tomorrow.” Kimberly nodded absently, looking around for what was causing the odd feeling, “Yea…yea, I should get going. See ya tomorrow.” She said.
We parted and I ran off towards home, wondering what tat strange feeling was. Something weird’s going on here. That feeling, it wasn’t right, it was like someone was trying to watch me, find out what makes me tick. Part of me thought, Don’t be ridiculous! The other part of me argued, You’re being paranoid, it’s nothing. I tried to convince myself, Then how come Kimberly could feel it too? Admit it! Something strange is happening. I thought, but then something else came to my realization, You don’t know that she felt it! For all that you know, she could have been looking at a bird or something, it doesn’t mean she’s as psychologically messed up as you are. But I still couldn't believe that nothing weird was happening, You saw the look on her face! She felt it too, she knows there was something happening! It kept going on back and forth like that all the way home, I felt like a yo-yo, going back and forth, back and forth.
Even when I reached home, I was still oblivious to everything. When I barged in the front door, my mom told me something, can’t remember what, just went straight up to my room. Fell back onto my bed, covered my face with a pillow. Tried to come up with an explanation, couldn’t think of any. Instead I passed out on my bed, my brain was overworked from trying to figure out exactly what happened and why. Next thing I knew, my mom was calling me down for dinner.

Seven

Before I begin, *shoves Jane out of the way* (trust me, you REALLY don't want to know), sorry about that last post. I've hit a pothole on the rode of life and Wizard101 just isn't enough to get rid of all the stress anymore. You remember Kira? It's gotten worse. And SOMEONE I know needs to make a decision.

ANYWAY....you're probably wondering why this post is entitled "Seven". WEEEELLLLLL........(No Jane, not yet, STOP BUGGING ME!) So I was out walking the other day and I started thinking about Wizard101. And, well, I got an idea. For the record, I am NOT abandoning POWERS, so don't freak out, Jessica. There's no rule that says I can't work on two projects at the same time. I may or may not finish it, it depends on how much support I get from you guys. Finished or not, I'll make a tab for it by The Drake Kids. It may be the only thing up for a while, depends on whether or not I get a good idea for a post worth posting. So, uh, let's get started. (OK, Jane, now.)

Chapter 1:
~Allison~

July Seventh, 2007. That day. That was the day everything changed. Don't get me wrong, it was a completely normal day...at first. My name's Allison, by the way. Allison Sandforge. But back then it was just Allison. I was just walking on the beach, thinking about why I even put up with the people at school who tease me for my “abnormality”. I could do things, things that I didn’t know what they were. Once our class was outside for the first time in spring, and there was a lot of sand for the ice on the pavement from that winter. I got mad, and suddenly, there was a sandstorm brewing. It chased after the girls who had made me mad, and by the time the teacher was back and my temper was under control, it was just…gone. And when I was in trouble, if there was a salamander nearby, it would just come up and stand next to me.

I dug my toes into the sand. I guess kids made fun of me because I was good at everything. And I mean everything. MVP in track, soccer, softball, lacrosse AND competitive swimming. Not to mention I was an A+ student in every class, made great projects in art class, and all the teachers just loved me. I was perfect in everything I did. And I hated it. See, try as I might, there was nothing I really loved to do.

Until we learned about the dessert in Geography. Now that was cool. The sand, the heat, the blazing white heat of the sun and the constant struggle to live, it made me come alive. Of course, with the dessert came Egypt, and that was even better. The history of it all, the strange allure of mummification, ancient kings, the epic battle between Moses and his own brother, Ramses, to set his people free from slavery, the gods, the pyramids, and the Nile, the lifeblood of Egypt!

I ditched my sandals, didn’t want them, didn’t need them. Ran across the sand, let my feet touch the cool sand, felt it shift underneath my weight. Cart wheeled over the sand, did a front-flip in the air, started to run faster, but then I felt something…someone was watching me. It wasn’t a bad feeling though, it felt like a good presence. But still, it made me feel uncomfortable. I had to get away from it, quickly. I wanted to go the park in the center of town, but it was so far away. I thought about it, thought about the little white gazebo, the people laughing and playing, dogs catching Frisbees, old people sitting on the maple wood benches feeding bread crumbs to pigeons. And then, the park wasn’t a thought anymore, it was real, I was there. How did this happen? I thought. I was just at the beach a second ago…that’s impossible…I—someone bumped into me and knocked me to the ground. I looked up at the culprit. She looked so familiar…like I was supposed to know her, from a dream or something, like it was destiny that made her bump into me.
“Hey…” she said, completely unfazed by the fact that she had knocked us both to the ground, but she looked the same way I felt. Like we were supposed to meet.

I'll post more of that tomorrow, if not today. So please comment, and let me know what you think!

Cya!

Hey, Guys...

Yea...you can probably tell by the title of this post that this isn't good. If I only know you in-game (meaning you're not on Skype, Twitter, Facebook, ect.) you probably have seen me in, oh, two weeks. Why? One word: Celestia.

And for those of you who are planning their hate-filled comments right now, stop reading this and get of my blog because I'm in no mood. In my eyes, Celestia was a mistake. I've also noticed that everyone who is crazy for PvP LOOOOOVES Celestia. For the rest of us, like me, who hate PvP, it's stupid. Wizard101 just isn't as fun as it was. I'm hoping I'm just on a hump, and I'll get over it soon, but I walk the same streets I have been for two years now and I don't feel the magic.

Yes, I do blame Celestia. I hate seeing Legendaries on their stupid shark mounts wearing that ugly gear that you guys have been fawning over. I don't want to be Legendary! I don't want to have to give up the gear that I've farmed so hard for that I love that you all have thrown away!

And while you guys are all thinking "What's happened to you? You're not like this!" YES I AM! I'm not the one that's different! Celestia's changed you guys!

C'mon think about it! Celestia has forced people to leave! Cody's gone, Alyssa's gone, Amber's gone, Destiny and Cody are gone, Cass's gone, David's gone, Dustin's gone! Remember them? They used to be your friends! I haven't been caught up in all this Celestia crap! I watch them change, bit by bit. Then they leave. Who's next? Kestrel? Jessica? Alia? Some of them left in the hype of Celestia, others left when they were bored with it. IT. DOESN'T. MATTER. Celestia's made this happen, and I wish it'd never happened.

You aren't the same as you used to be. And I miss the real you. So stop with Celestia for a bit, and think about the old times, when we could still have fun without thinking about Celestia.

Bye.

I LOVE BALANCE WIZARDS! A post from Paige

Hey! This is Donna's Balance Wizard, Paige, posting for the first time ever! So, yesterday, way back when I was level fifteen, I decided that I wanted sandstorm so I started questing. I quickly leveled up after doing some side-questing and got me a shiny new sandstorm card! So today I got to level eighteen and got the quest for mander minion!

*three corny tree jokes later*

So I went through a bunch of stuff then came face-to-face with the King Scorpion! O: Here's a picture:

So I finally got my minion, though I've yet to try it out. I'm currently trying to find stupid gem stones, but I'm having trouble. Do you want a picture of how I look? 'Course ya do!


Toby's mah little buddy. :)

Paige, don't you think we should announce the you-know-what?

Oh yea! We're going to be putting tabs up for all of us! Yes, Scarlet, Nicole, Brooke, even Christina!

"One man come in the name of love

One man come and go

One man come he to justify

One man to overthrow

IN THE NAME OF LOVE!

What more in the name of love

IN THE NAME OF LOVE!

What more in the name of love

One man caught on a barbed wire fence

One man he resist

One man washed up on an empty beach

One man betrayed with a kiss

IN THE NAME OF LOVE!

What more in the name of love

IN THE NAME OF LOVE!

What more in the name of love

Early morning, April four

Shot rings out in the Memphis sky

Free at last, they took your life

They could not take your pride!

IN THE NAME OF LOVE!

What more in the name of love

IN THE NAME OF LOVE!

What more in the name of love

IN THE NAME OF LOVE!

What more in the name of love"

-Paul David Hewson

No, this is not a stupid poem. C'mon guys, you didn't think his real name was Bono, did you? This happens to be one of the greatest U2 songs in history. And it's about the day Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. Why am I posting this? CAUSE TODAY'S MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY! I want ALL OF YOU to listen to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Im9jWZ1yzwg it's that song. THAT'S AN ORDER!

Think about what MLK did for us, personally. If he didn't do what he did, we either wouldn't know Alia and Malorn, or our parents wouldn't let us hang out with them. Along with all the other dark-skinned Wizard101 players. Think about it! Would there be a 'colored' section of the Spiral? Or would they not be allowed to play, period? I always think, if Martin Luther King didn't get killed, Barak Obama would have been our second black president.

So, as a result. Today's Willing WizardS of the Week are............

ALIA AND MALORN!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

OK, so I was just on Friendly's site and I wanted to see the most recent post and was surprised that it was Heather's. It was entitled: "To Jessica:", so I got kinda freaked out that she might be quitting. NOPE. So instead of repeating the phrase, "PLEASE DON'T QUIT!" I shall say, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jessica, I have no clue where I would be today without you. You are my writing assistant, and my tormentor (in a good way) all wrapped up in one psychopath. So from me, and Jane (LOOOOOOOONG story) Happy Birthday! *gives cake* So, naturally, our Willing Wizard of the Week is.......................JESSICA FAIRYHEART! *confetti explosion*

Three Posts For the Price of One!

Sorry or not being on! We had a snow storm a few weeks ago and ever since my Internet has been wonky. I haven't been able to play Wizard101 much without losing my connection every five seconds. But I've been getting away from my laptop in the last few days and enjoying life. I'm gonna stop here before I start sounding too much like Alyssa Silverheart...

(end post one)

I tried making this post previously but my Internet was on the fritz and it wouldn't let me post.

*digs through archives*

Aha!

OK, so my family is gone and a wont see them for another two years, but moving on from that. MERRY CHRISTMAS! HAPPY HANUKKAH! HAPPY KWANZAA! Yea, I know I'm late, so what? I least I did it. So, since it's traditional, I guess I'll tell you guys what I got for Christmas.

I got an Xbox 360 WITH Kinect and I played it so much that now I'm sore cause it's freaking AWESOME!

I got tub of Lego's. LEGO'S FTW! Hey, you're never too old for Lego's! They're awesome. Though it would be cool to have Wizard101 Legos. I want a little Merle Ambrose Lego dude. xD

I got a Wizard101 gift card, no, NOT the double wide I already have one.

I got a froggy hat, sock monkey style and I do plan on wearing it to school. TAKE THAT, KIRA!

I got the Sorcerer's Apprentice, (new version) How To Train Your Dragon, Shreck: The Final Chapter (my uncle had to leave the room he said it was gonna make him cry, rofl, how funny is that?), and, The Wizard of Oz. All great movies.

I got 80$ worth of Barn's & Noble gift cards, I'm saving some of it for the sequel to The Red Pyramid and The Son of Neptune (I'm still ticked that they left of on a cliffhanger like that and we have to wait until next fall x,x. Seriously, last words in the book: "Exactly. Percy Jackson is at the other camp and he probably doesn't even remember who he is." I mean, COME ON!)



Oh, AAAAAAAAAAAAND I got a U2 CD. I've been abusing the replay button on my laptop. U2 FOR THE WIN!!! It also includes a song that was recorded with Green Day.

---------

Guess what else this post is about? I'm gonna start a "Willing Wizard of the Week". I post about once every week now, so I figured it would be a nice edition. But, don't be disappointed if it's not you. I know a lot of awesome Wizards, and it's gonna take a while to get to all of them. So, today's winner is...(drum roll please) *pulls piece of paper out of hat of awesomeness*..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

AMBER UNICORNFLOWER!

One of my closest Wizarding friends, she gets the cake for a few reasons.

1. She is a fellow piggle maniac.


2. She always gets me laughing, what with the stalker mannequin and her protection-pox-phobia, there are few times with her when I'm not laughing hysterically.


3. Quite frankly, she's a good person.

Well, I'm off to play Xbox.

Cya!

(end post two)

For my final post on this three-posts-for-the-price-of-one-sale, I'd like to introduce my button. I kind of got the idea from the "No More Noobs" badge, which I refuse to use because of freedom of speech and forms of the word, and an awesome quote from our friend Heather Raven, ("Freak is just another word for really awesome person.") I introduce the "Why be normal?" button! It is an actual button that I bought from Newbery Comics. If you want it, you'll have to ask me personally and I can give it to you for your blog via Facebook or Skype. (no, not twitter) Alia (THANKS ALIA!!!!) is currently cropping it to make it just the button so I'll just show you the actual picture I took. (sorry for the horrible quality)

If you are a true freak, and are proud to be so, don't hesitate to ask me for it. It may take a while for me to respond/send picture, though. *kicks Internet connection* It will be up on my blog soon, once Alia finishes cropping it.

Cya!

p.s. U2 + FREAKS FTW!!!!!

Couple A' Things...Hehe...

SCM (look at previous post for info) is complete. The necklaces are wrapped and hidden in my backpack. Hopefully my mom doesn't plan on any surprise backpack inspections. They wont move out of my backpack until my family arrives and the stockings (we use the one- piece 30's underwear with the flap in the back, for what reason, I have no clue.) start getting filled up. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

-----

Speaking of my family...they're coming this Sunday. I'll be on Wizard101 A LOT less. However, they're only staying till December 26th. So, don't expect to see me on except for early in the morning and late a night when I can sneak my lap top up to my room and play under my blankets.

Anyone heard of NaNoWriMo? It stands for National Novel Writing Month. It takes place every November when people set their goal of words (usually 50,000) to write during that month. Our English teacher brought it up during class and held a competition for highest word count. I came in first place with 15,006 and six. The top three got a special prize (I'll show you in a second) and anyone who got to 1,000 words would get three homework passes. OK, so, my special prize (drum roll please).....................................................

So, while you're turning your head and/or computer sideways to see that awesome custom-made T-Shirt, keep in mind that only three people in the world have it. I am one of them.

Alright, that's all I got.

Cya!

I Have a Secret Christmas Mission

Yes. Secret Christmas Mission. SCM for short. Do you think it's a coincidence that it sounds like scum when you say it? I love Christmas. Especially on even years. Because my family from Colorado (remember them from the last post?) come every other year. (200, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010, ect.) So, back to SCM. My math teacher, Mrs. G (her last name is hard to pronounce/spell) makes these cool necklaces for 4$ each that you can personalize. You send her the picture you want, or, if it's a common one, you tell her which one you want, and she makes one for you. I decided to get some for my mom, dad, aunt, uncle, and two cousins. It's not as easy as you'd think. See, I don't want my parents to even know I'm getting them present, so I have to do it all secretly. Here's my plan.

• Email Mrs. G with the links for the pictures I want


• Give her the 24$ it cost for six of them


• Get the wrapping paper from Jen, who's sleeping over Saturday


• Get the necklaces from Mrs. G on Monday (hopefully)


• Sneak them home in my backpack


• Hide them somewhere I'll remember until I can wrap them


• Wrap them without my parents finding me (probably at night)


• Hide them until the stockings start getting full with presents


• Wait for everyone to find them in their stockings Christmas morning

Yup. That's the SMC. It's not gonna be easy. Besides, my mom got a little suspicious when I started asking about Mrs. G's email, and where my aunt's favorite place to travel is. (it ended up not having anything to do with Mexico. Whatever.)

My uncle got the iTunes logo, (he loves iTunes) one cousin got a picture of Bob Marley, (he loves Bob Marley) the other cousin got a peace sign, (she has a tattoo of one) my mom got a flamingo (likes flamingos, yea, I don't get it either) my dad got a soccer ball, (he LOVES soccer) and my aunt got a Kokpelli guy. (she loves Kokopelli)

I realize most of you don't know what a Kokopelli is.

That's Kokopelli. He's a cool little guy, huh? Okay, well, wish me luck!

Cya!
