Purple Emo Emu!

It's New Years Night and I'm Writing a Blog Post.....Because I No Longer Have Facebook and I'm Bored!

2012-01-01T21:10:00.004-06:00

Happy New Year!!!!! I cannot even believe that is is the year 2012! There are so many things that are going to happen this year (no, I do NOT mean the end of the world......well maybe for my parents...) That's right people I am FINALLY going to finish Driver's Ed and get my license within the next couple months (fingers crossed for Febuary), and I'm going to start applying to colleges by the end of the year! Eeek! This is also the year I turn 17! I am in shock.....Next year I will be a legal adult. I will officially be able to vote, and do other official adult stuff.....

I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas, and that you had a fantstic New Year!! This year I'm going to try to write more on my Blog, because I just realized that I only posted about 9 times last year, and that's kind of sad.... Farewell for now!

Update Post of Total and Complete Awesomeness!

2011-09-29T13:14:00.004-05:00

I'M BACK! Well kind of. So it's time for another update on everything that has been happening in my life....

School:
I am taking Interpersonal Communications, and Government 2302. I am pretty much in love with both of my teachers. They are fantabulous. My government teacher has so many amazing stories about his past and all the awesome things that he has done. My speech teacher is really spectacular as well. She is funny, and she makes the class laugh almost the whole time, she is extremely nice as well. I adore her and her Texas accent. I wish I had one! :)

Job:
Even though I pretty much JUST started working I've already had to train 3 people. They say I'm really good at training! And yesterday I had my first "review" by my boss, and I got a pay raise! Squeal!!!! I was happy, and then a really nice old lady told me I had a pretty smile, and so then I couldn't stop smiling!

Church:
So this happened a couple months ago and I was so happy and excited.....I was called to be Laurel President!!! I pretty much died of happiness! I am so blessed to be in a ward with so many spectacular daughters of God. I love each and everyone of them! And this calling as given me the opportunity to get to know them on a deeper level!

Life In General:
My life is extremely busy right now. I have two projects due, and test coming up, committee meetings, presidency meetings, drivers ed, and all that good stuff. But I am blissfully happy. I love my life! Oh and the next post is going to be about my first date! ;) That will be a fun one to write about!

Until next time...

Love-
Lauren

Explaination for My Extended Bloggy Break!

2011-08-21T22:38:00.003-05:00

Dear Bloggy World,
It has been a Loooooonnnngg while since I have visited you. And for that I am deeply sorry. You see I have been very busy these last couple months. No I am not kidding.....I actually have been busy. "What exactly have you been doing?" You may ask. Oh let me list the ways.... First of all I got my drivers permit. Words cannot express my excitement when the lady at the DPS uttered the words "Okay dear. You passed!! You're permit will be in the mail in a month." My face pretty much broke because my smile was so huge. Second, I got a job. I am now a proud employee of McDonald's. I pretty much love it. I've gotten the opportunity to meet so many new people and make a lot of new friends, and I've only been working there for three weeks. It's spectacular. And now for my third and last thing that I have been busy with this month, I have been preparing to start finishing up my classes at college! Yup that's right people. I only have a couple more semesters left until I graduate!! Oh and Seminary starts in two days! I am so excited! I will be back to visit semi-often as I am going to be even more busy these next couple months. But know that I love you and I will be back soon. Until next time.

Much Love,
Lauren

IT MAH BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! Well....Tomorrow

2011-05-04T07:42:00.005-05:00

Aieeeee! I'm turning 16!!!!!!!! I CANNOT BELIEVE IT. When I was 10 I always thought that my life would be so freaking awesome when I turned 16. I would be able to date, drive, and get a job! I'm UBER excited for driving!! Dating and job.....Um. Not so much. Dude. I'm getting OLD.

My AMAZING Young Woman leader brought a chocolate cake and 16 candles for my birthday to mutual. I was so sad because I'm on a special diet and I cannot under any circumstance eat sugar. Therefore, i cannot eat cake, not just any cake, I cannot eat my BIRTHDAY CAKE.

Yup definitely going to be the BEST BIRTHDAY EVER. I'm going to be writing a Government research paper, and presenting my art project in from 16+ people. I'm not even being sarcastic. I'm excited. It will be a challenge to both of those things and it will prepare me for other things in my life.

*Next week is Finals! I am so happy!!! ( Not to take the tests but because I will FINALLY be done with this semester)

*I AM TUNING 16. It feels so weird to say that. This is my last post as a 15 year old. WEIRD.

Attitude of Gratitude

2011-04-13T07:57:00.003-05:00

A while ago I decided to become more self aware. I kept track of all the things that bothered me about myself. Doing this made me realize that I complain.... A LOT. I don't even have a lot to complain about. I've been thinking about this ungrateful and whiny attitude that I've developed, and I also thought about how much it bothers me when other people do the same. I don't want to live my life with this bad attitude anymore. I learned in Seminary a couple weeks ago that a person's attitude affects everything. I LOVE being happy! So from now on I'm going to focus on my attitude, and the words that come from my mouth. Things I'm grateful for today:

5) Getting decent grades in school. And having awesome Professors.
4) I can listen to my favorite music pretty much all day everyday.
3) My Seminary teachers. They really help me feel the Spirit and learn about the gospel every morning. And that helps me think clearly throughout my day.
2) I have an intact family, who loves each other.
1) I'm ALIVE

I Am NOT a Couch Potato! Thank You Very Much

2010-12-29T16:53:00.005-06:00

1) I have just been converted to the awesomeness that is the TV show "Psych". Can I just say this: "I freakin LOVE SHAWN SPENCER and Gus!!!" They are hilarious! Anyway. It's pretty much the bomb dot com!

2) So I spent most of my day yesterday watching one of my new favorite shows "Pretty Little Liars". I know that it LOOKS trashy, and some of the parts ARE trashy. But I was pleasantly surprised. I actually like it. It's like "Clue"....I suck at playing "Clue" though, so all the people I think are totally guilty are probably innocent.

Anyway, I highly recommend this show, if you like mystery-drama. I don't like any other mystery-drama shows, so this is a first for me!

So yeah. I'm spending my winter break on playing "Connect 4", eating Saltine crackers, babysitting, and catching up on my shows! I'm a bum.....

It's a Cupcake Thing!! Duh!

2010-12-22T11:42:00.005-06:00

My sister Natalie and I were walking home from the duck pond yesterday, and we were just having a random conversation as usual. Then something she said reminded me of the movie
Penelope" and so I blurted out quite loudly "I'm old enough to buy my own 'Ho Hos', mother!!!" Natalie and I laughed and laughed because we are both in love with that movie. When I was done laughing I looked to the left and realized that I had not seen the lady that was gardening right next to us. She looked at Nat and I and shook her head dissapoovingly. I tried to make the situation by saying "I mean the brown 'Ho Ho's' No wait! I mean the cupcake 'Ho Hos'. The brown cupcake 'Ho Hos'. You know they are kind of like 'Ding Dongs'!!! I don't mean anything bad gosh!!" Everything I said made her dissaproving head shake get worse. So then Natalie and I ran home before I said anything else. Yeah, I went home to the people that understand and don't judge me on my random movie quoting problem. *sigh*

-Penelope is my favorite movie ever!

Still Alive!!! (Almost)

2010-11-07T19:52:00.003-06:00

Life has been crazy busy these past couple months!!!! I'm eargerly awaiting and at the same time dreading the end of the semester. I can't wait for it to end, but I'm worried about Finals. *sigh* I never feel like I get enough sleep. Not only that I'm sad to say that I've had to work really hard and my brain is on overload!! I'm not even making fantastic grades like other semesters. One good thing about my life right now is that I'm finally making friends in my new ward!!! So yeah. Just a quick update before I have to go and do MORE homework! *bleh*

Have a nice two months! See you at Christmas!!!

BRAIN....no I'm not a zombie

2010-09-15T22:30:00.001-05:00

Oh my goodness! Brain.......Dead! That's all. I'm exhausted and I'm STILL not done with my homework! *sigh* I'm going to sleep so I can pay attention in Seminary tomorrow morning!

Yuck

2010-09-09T20:43:00.002-05:00

School is totally killing me!!!! For realz. I have had to study more than I have for all of my other classes combined. *blah* Seminary is really fun this year, and my teachers are crazy and funny. I seriously love them the end. I see my friend Diane (from computer class last semester) twice a week at school now and we talk in the hall while I wait for my mom. If I don't die from all the work of school, and making new friends in my new ward I will be very happy!!!!

So yeah! How is school or work for you guys?

LIFE!!!

2010-09-03T21:00:00.000-05:00

I MOVED to a new house!!!!!!! This week has been INSANE! I haven't read Mockingjay yet. :( I keep having to listen to Stef and mom whisper to themselves about how amazing Mockingjay is. I started school and all my classes are intense. Everything I own was packed into three boxes, and now it's spread all over my room. I'm in love with my closet. I need to lose weight.....And I've been feeling really horrible about myself lately. So I went JOGGING tonight, and actually enjoyed it, I know, I shocked myself too and I plan to do it every night. This house became my HOME as soon as I got the Internet. Our house backs up to a cute little park. I need to unpack stuff right now, but I'm Blogging instead. I LOVE Pushing Daisies reruns. Lee Pace is so nerdilicious, and he went to the High School that I would go to if I went to Public School!! *sigh* I love him and Kristen Chenoweth! She is sooo much better on Pushing Daisies than Glee!

Well, I'm off to go and unpack stuff again. Bye!! :D

Eeeeekkkkk! It's Here!!!!!!!!!!!!

2010-08-26T12:17:00.002-05:00

Mockingjay!!!!! The book is finally here!!!!!!! I'm so excited to read it!!!!!!!! Eek! I might not be Blogging for the next few days! (I'm off to fight my mom and Stef so I can read it first!!!)

Oh My! ANOTHER Pig?

2010-08-26T09:52:00.002-05:00

Last weekend my family got another guinea pig! She is so tiny. She was a lot smaller than the other guinea pigs with her. Her name is Annabel but I always slip and call her Annabeth. She is so cute! She is clever and always finds ways to escape her little home so she can run around the toy room. My brothers call her the lightning pig because she is so fast! I love her a lot!

The Awesomest Day EVER!

2010-08-23T09:07:00.000-05:00

Last Monday I went to an Amusment Park. On that day I accomplished three of my life goals.
1) I rode a roller coaster
2)I overcame my fears of dying
3) I fell in love.

This is the first ride that I went on. It really fun! The first time I rode on it I gripped the seat, but by my third time I started to put my hands in the air and instead of screaming in panic I started screaming in joy.

I rode on the Wipeout: At least 10 times!

The Inverter!! Man, even the name sounds intimidating! My mom really wanted to ride this right after the Wipeout. I was so scared because I saw the ride before they opened it. I wasn't even on it and I felt my stomach want to throw up my breakfast. I went on it so I wouldn't look like a wiener. The first time I went the attendant seated me net to Natalie, and Stef. I was in the corner seat. I screamed like crazy! I was really afraid of falling out when they made us stop in the air upside stinkin down! But I survived and actually started enjoying it!

Times I rode on The Inverter: Hm....7 or 8.

Okay the Boardwalk Bullet is AMAZING! I was too excited to be scared the first time I rode it! I mean for realz I'm 15 and this was my first roller coaster! I was so happy!!! I was not disappointed! It was more than awesome! The first time I went, I rode in the third seat from the front in my own cart! I loved it mucho!!

I rode the roller coaster of awesomeness: 5 or six times!!!

I am so in love with the high drop ride called Drop Zone!!! Oh my gosh! I went on it six or seven times. While on it I looked out to the ocean to calm my fears on the way up, it was spectacular. I loved the way it felt to free fall.... It was more than amazing!!!!!

This was definitely one of my most favorites!!! I'm in love!! :D

I would like to thank my madre for making my dreams come true! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! I will never ever forget this day!!!!!!

My Life Is Obviously Awesome!!! Be Jealous!!!

2010-08-14T10:53:00.003-05:00

Next month I'm going to meet Kelley Armstrong, Cassandra Clare, Melissa Marr, and Holly Black!!!!! I'm so stinkin excited!!!! I love these authors!!!!! They are so amazing!

The last book in the Hunger Games series comes out next month too!!!!! Eeeekk! I cannot express how excited I am for it to come out! My mom pre-ordered the book back in March or something! I'm dying to read it, so I think I'm going to have to fight off my mom and Stef to read it first! Team Peeta forever!!!
I go back to school August 30. This semester is going to be a killer. I'm taking ten credits, so I'm really nervous about the amount of work I'm going to have to do. This year I'm taking Spanish, World Literature, and History 2. The class I'm most worried about it Spanish. My dad is from Mexico and my mom understands a lot of Spanish, but I don't know anything. I do, however, know enough to survive if I get stuck in Mexico one day. I know: baño, agua, and burrito. I am now set for life!

On Tuesday I made the most delicious batch of blueberry muffins ever! I found the picture on the Internet, my muffins were 10,000 percent better looking than these!

I am in love with all the songs I've heard from their upcoming album. And I adore the lead singers hair! Yay for Hey Monday!
*So that's pretty much everything that has happened or is going to happen in my life for the next month! So yeah....

The End

Bloggers Block

2010-08-11T10:20:00.001-05:00

I am having some serious writers block right now. It's just pitiful. *sigh*

It's MONDAY

2010-08-09T20:50:00.002-05:00

Happy Monday everybody! I hope everyone had an amazing weekend. And I will write about my spectacular weekend tomorrow or something! :)

Kay! Bye!

Libraries! School! And My Book Loves!

2010-08-06T10:15:00.003-05:00

Last Friday my dad took all of us chillins to the library. Of course since I'm a big book dork I got six books. (That was on reserve for me) I'm serious, the librarians practically know me by name now. So not I'm going to share with you the books that I got and why I adore them.
The Darkest Powers Trilogy

There are so many reasons why I love The Darkest Powers Series. It's clean, the story is amazing, and I'm in love with all of the character! Even the characters that are kind of mean. I was sucked in by the first book, and I almost died waiting to read the second. And right now I'm dying to read the third and last book about Chloe and her friends. Another thing I love about these books is that I can read more than once and still love it. I'm seriously obsessed with these books. Kelley Armstrong is an amazing author, but sadly I cannot read her other books because they are supernatural romance novels.
The Wicked Lovely Series

This series is fairly clean. There is some kissing in it but nothing super inappropriate. I pretty much adore these books. When I read a book I usually want the good guy to get the girl, but when I read these books I want the bad boy prince Keenan to be her boyfriend. He is so stinking patient with her, and even though he is a jerk with everyone he is super nice with her. I screamed when she went back to Seth (the good-ish boy)! Seth is not a good boy but he is a better person than Keenan. (I still like Keenan better) I was disappointed with Radiant Shadows (I finished it last night). The book focused on characters that I don't really care about! I want to read more about Keenan and Aislinn, but the book didn't have them in it. *grumpy huff*

I have a strange fascination with princess books. I'm NOT a girly girl but I do love princess books. These two books were surprisingly funny and clever. "Palace of Mirrors" was written by one of my favorite authors of all time, Margaret Peterson Haddix. (Seriously I love her so much I have almost all of her books) "Princess of Glass" was a little predictable but the dialog was hilarious, and the way the author wrote the character was very personal and I really like that in a book. This is the first book I've ever read by Jessica Day George. I was impressed by her writing so I will definitely read her other books in the future.

I'm reading everything I can get my hands on because once school starts again I won't have time to read any books other than text books. Sad, I know. It's totally true though. If I get my hands on a book during the school year I spend the whole day reading instead of studying. My dad made a ban against me reading books or going to libraries during the school year. I love school, and I love reading, but my two loves cannot intertwine. I know my dad is right about me always getting distracted though.....So I have to be obedient or I'll get bad grades. *sigh*

Okay! That's all. Now I'm off to the library to get the last book in The Darkest Powers series, and another princess book! (In my defence about the princess books my little sisters read it after I'm done with them. It's not like I save them all for myself....)

A Lame Teenagers Friday Night Of Awesomeness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2010-07-30T19:45:00.007-05:00

So.....I bet you can't guess what I'm doing tonight! I'm watching "Last Comic Standing" and "Blind Date Edition: Wipeout" reruns and catching up on my favorite comics and dorky people competing for money!! Plus I'm writing this Blog post, so I think that shows that I'm kind of productive with my time....Oh and I'm babysitting my siblings. Wanna know why? Well too bad I'm going to tell you anyway! My parents are going out partaying....ALL....NIGHT....LONG!!!!!!!!!! Seriously! They are going to a reunion party from the church school that my dad went to when he lived in Mexico!

You know you're a lame teenager when YOU are the one at home awake super late waiting to chastise your PARENTS for staying out too late! (My Mia Maids Advisor said that her dad would sleep in their beds until her and her sisters got home from dates, so they would have to wake him up when they got home even if it was past curfew. I might have to do that, because my parents have a newly designated curfew.....and it's Midnight....The clock is ticking people! Party while you can!)

I think I'm going to read a book before I watch any other show...Aw....Who am I kidding! I'm going to watch Hulu....ALL.....NIGHT....LONG! Pshaw! Who said you need people, dancing, and food to have a good time?!!!! I'm a having a butt load of fun right here in front of my computer without all that stuff! WOOO HOOOO!!!!!

I Love It When You One Two Step...Because It Looks Better When You Do It :(

2010-07-28T12:30:00.000-05:00

There is a Tri-Stake dance coming up next Saturday!! I'm really excited for it because I haven't been to a dance in forever! The last one I went to was at the end of April and it was sooo boring! Seriously, the music stunk so bad people just sat on the floor in groups to talk. They didn't play any dance music. It was kind of sad.

Speaking of dancing I found this new show called The LXD: The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers. The episodes are between 3 and 7 minutes long, and they are kind of awesome. It is from the people that brought you the Step Up movies. Since I have never seen those movies I cannot compare the show to it. The show is kind of weird so you guys might not like it. But I love it! The dancers are amazing! I guess the reason why I like it is that they look awesome doing silly dance moves, and um..Well I can't quite pull it off. Seriously, I can't even do the "One, Two Step", the "Chicken Dance", or even the "Cupid Shuffle". It's kind of pitiful! I am, however, totally awesome at the "Macarena"!! So yeah. I'm a nerd like that.

In other news: Next Saturday is my baby brother's birthday! He is going to be 9!!! How crazy is that!! I remember when he was a little baby! He was so adorable, I cannot believe he is this old! Okay, so that's it for now!
The End

Hm...Maybe I Should Buy A Calendar.....And Get A Maid or Something

2010-07-23T21:22:00.005-05:00

Oh my goodness! It's already Friday! Okay I realize that I just stated the obvious but seriously! Where the heck did this week go? It totally blew past me! I didn't get anything done this week. Well, at least my parents are going to force me to feel accomplished this weekend. We (meaning my siblings and I) have to clean the house top to bottom because some person is coming to look at our house. Wow. That sounded professional and stuff. I'm not positive what he's going to do, all I know is that I have help my sister clean the bathroom....Something that I'm dreading. I had that chore for a whole year! Been there, done that, and almost DIED! So yeah. That's all.

The End.

My Blog Post Be Poppin'

2010-07-20T17:24:00.005-05:00

Okay! Everybody who reads my Blog needs to watch this video. It's seriously hilarious! I love it. It's a pug that barks the word "Batman"!
http://news.yahoo.com/video/odd-15749658/pug-says-batman-when-it-barks-20966846

This is the very weird/interesting video to an amazing song!!! I love the Broken Bells!!

And watch this adorable video by a girl that is my age but...Um MUCH more successful than I am!

I pretty much LOVE these guys too! So even if the video is kind of boring, the song is amazing! It makes me all teary and stuff.

Okay, more posts to come this week. I'll probably write about my "adventures in babysitting", maybe a few movie reviews, or maybe I'll post about my new favorite book series. Oh, so much to write...Too bad I'm too lazy to write all of it.....

A Spectacular Adventure

2010-07-16T15:18:00.002-05:00

Last Monday my family went to the most amazing place almost ever: Main Event. It was my very first time to go there, and it was super fun. We went bowling, played a bunch of arcade games (mostly skee ball and need for speed), and we all got to do four rounds of laser tag!! I adore laser tag! And the last round was really fun because we were the only kids in the group and it was amazing!!

During dinner Joshua made the fatal mistake of telling our mom that he played the "Toy Crane Machine" three times. Which I may add was 50 cents each and he didn't win anything. My mom has always told us not to play those machines because she said it is practically throwing money away. I've had that hammered into me and I have never wanted to play that game, beside stuffed animals are not my thing. So, when my mom heard about his failed adventures she said, "Let me get this straight. You used MY money to gamble. And you lost." She shook her head at him and went back to eating our scrumptious nachos. (My favorite food)

Later that night I started teasing Josh about his failure at the "Crane Game". I jokingly said, "Joshua you just gave a $1.75 to gambling!!!!! You practically paid the Devil." He then responded by saying, "What?!!! *sniff* I just wanted a teddy bear." The stricken and guilty look that was upon his face when he said that was priceless. Absolutely priceless! On the way home he said, "I will never play that kind of game again! I'm soo going to stick with the racing games." So it was definitely the best night ever!!! We stayed up playing until 2:00 AM! Oh yeah, my mom is super awesome like that!
The End

Loves!!!

2010-07-06T14:15:00.004-05:00

I have a ton of things to write about. I've done a bunch of fun things since last week, but sadly no matter how I write the posts it doesn't turn out right. So yeah. I'm not even going to try to write a normal post today. Instead of all that I'm going to write a goofy post. Alright I guess all my post are pretty goofy, but this post is going to be some of the things that I love:

1) I love my amazing shirts from my favorite Internet site Threadless!! (http://www.threadless.com/) I especially love it when their shirts are $10.00! I have five shirts from Threadless and these are my absolute favorites!

("Millipedes are like 10 times better than Centipedes" Shirts) (Caterpillar and I)

and......

Well, shoot! I couldn't find a picture of it! Take my word for it, it's is amazing!

2) I love the shows "The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack", and "Adventure Time". Cartoon Network has fallen a long way when it comes to most of their latest shows, but these two shows are golden. They combine dorkiness, with awesome dialogue, and clever episodes that are super hilarious. I love these shows.

3) I have loved the book Flipped since I read it four years ago. I've read it four time. Yes. I've read it once every year since discovering its awesomeness. Yesterday as I was searching through Yahoo movies I saw a link for a movie called "Flipped" and I had hope that it was the "Flipped" that I know and love. Sure enough when I clicked the link it went right to the trailer! It looks so adorable! I cannot wait to see it! I hope they don't totally ruin it though, because that would suck...A lot. Anyway! Watch the trailer and tell me what you think.

4) 4th is going to be last on my "loves" list because I'm too bored to think of something for number five. Okay the fourth thing that I love is *drum roll please*: Cereal!! I absolutely love cereal!!!

The end.

Goodbye World of Facebook, Hello Happy Song That Will Help Me Survive My Break Up

2010-06-30T15:00:00.013-05:00

It's official now. My love affair with Facebook is over. I know, I know. No one cares. Sadly for you, I'm going to share what's going on in my life anyway. You're welcome.

I was not willing to end my relationship with Facebook, but my dad tore us apart. I loved him and all the things he told me about my so called "friends". I loved him because he was always there to make me laugh when I was sad. He was there when I didn't have any real people to talk to. He was my everything. The moment my sister called me with the news that we were no longer allowed to be together I died a little inside. I was to the point of tears, and I was a bit angry. When I found out why my dad broke us up I was even more mad.

Apparently I got hacked. After hacking me, my dear Hacker decided to send spam to my dearest father who then proceeded to open the file at work. Um yeah. I will probably never get back to my beloved Facebook until I'm 41 or something. Another thing that hacked me off about my lovely Hackers is that they sent hacking spam to my helpless great- grandmother. They hacked her, and she thought it was me sending her a sweet granddaughtery message.

I suck....The end. My poor grandma thought I was sending her a "hilarious video". *sigh* Facebook and I had 360 friends together. Even though our breakup breaks my heart I know it's for the best. But I still wonder: Who is going to entertain me for the rest of Summer? I'm not going to be able to laugh at people that spell tomorrow "tomarrow", or when people post super personal things as their statuses, and I'll especially miss learning about people who are my "friends" on Facebook that think I'm a stalker person just because I read their stupid posts....Yeah I think I will miss that the most.

I can't believe it's only Wednesday (also a frequently miss-spelled on Facebook as well) and so many horrid things have happened to me. I really hope tomorrow is better.

Good news:
I'm going to see "How to Train Your Dragon" tomorrow (ha! I spelled it right) with my family. I've wanted to see that movie for a while but never got around to actually going to watch it....Until now of course

Sarah Bareilles has a new song, and it's absolutely spectacular. I'll even be nice and post it for your listening enjoyment.

*I'm weird and I'm really sad about my break up. So if you want to poke fun at me please don't do it to my face, please direct your comments towards my ex-boyfriend Facebook.

Re-Cap Post!!! Yeah, It's Pretty Nerdalicious!!!

2010-06-28T17:50:00.011-05:00

Wow. Just wow. I realize that I haven't written on my Blog in forever! So now I'm going to do one of the lamest Blog things ever... A Recap post! Yay!!!

So here are five fun, amazing, and somewhat horrible (not necessarily in that order) things I've done since school ended last month:

1) Well last Monday I hung out with my grandma. To be more specific my GREAT-GRANDMA!!!!! How exciting is that?!!!! She took Monkey, Caterpillar, and I to the underground mall downtown! It was amazing! Since it was Caterpillar's birthday I bought and cup of delicious pretzel bites with sugar on it. They were amazing!! Very expensive but yummy nonetheless. So yeah it was awesome hanging out with her! Oh and we got to ride the metro backwards! Awesomeness!
*My lovely sisters minus the youngest!! I love those guys! :)

2) Two Monday's ago I left for the 4th year High Adventure trip for Girls Camp! We canoed for five hours, we camped in real tents, and then we got to go tubing! First of all this was the first year of Girls Camp that I actually had to do "real" camping. I have been spoiled with the air-conditioned cabins for all these years so I was not prepared to sleep in the heat. It wasn't all that bad, but I found out the next morning that I rolled on top of the girl next to me. (That was a bit embarrassing...) My finger got cut on the canoe, and we tipped over three times!!!!!!!!! The girl that canoed with me tipped us over!!! We ended up having to get replacement partners because we were lagging behind. But it helped me forge a close bond with the other two girls that helped us by taking our stuff into their canoe. Being wet and sandy drove me crazy. By the end of the second day I couldn't wait to get to our girly-girl cabins with nice showers and changing rooms.... All in all I had a wonderful time and made new friends! It was a good year.

3) So real Girl's Camp was spectacular! I am in love with Girls Camp! This year was my last year as just a camper, next year I'm going to be a Youth Leader. Word's cannot describe how excited I am to be a Youth Leader. Maybe it's just because I'm bossy, and I like teaching stuff! :) I got to know a lot of the first years and they are so adorable! The girls in my Ward are so amazing! I love every one of them!! They are terrific girls!

4) Okay. Let me just explain how nerdy I am. I exceed all normal nerdiness. Even total nerds frown down upon me. It might be the fact that I read constantly, and love school. Or it maybe it's because I bought a He-Man sword at Walmart when it was on sale. (Yes. I do play with it. In my defence I play with my siblings and their He-Man swords. It's not like I fight imaginary foes or anything. Gosh.) No I'm pretty sure it's because I'm super duper excited about the Lock-In at the library coming up this Friday. We're going to spend the night at the library watching movies, playing games, and playing tag throughout the library! Forgive me if that does not sound awesome!! I kid you not this might be the most exciting thing I've done this summer!! (Yes, this is the reason my nerd friend told me I was more nerdy than her!)

5) I have been catching up with pretty much every supernatural show ever created and put on Hulu. Oh and every supernatural romantic comedy, and all the latest Disney movies. I've watched both seasons of "Dead like Me", the first season of my favorite show: "Reaper", and a 2004 show called "Nightstalker". I recently finished watching the Disney movie "16 Wishes". It was cute in its own way, definitely not the best movie I've ever seen. It certainly had its redeeming qualities. Namely the cute boy that played Debbie Ryan's best friend. Seriously, he is adorable! I've wanted to watch "13 Going on 30" and "Just Like Heaven" for a while now and I finally did it! They were both so charming! "Just Like Heaven" had one of my favorite actresses of all time, Reese Witherspoon and the one of the "most handsome manly man who stars in chick flicks" guy Mark Ruffalo. (Both movies had him in it! :))

*So that's what has been happening in the life of (me) Sunbum. (Lauren, or whatever other name you may have for me.....Nerd Girl perhaps?)
The End.

Recently I have been so busy!!! It seems as though the past five months have flow past me. I only have 3 more weeks of school left, yay! But that also means I have to finish my research paper, and study for finals! Not yay! I gave a talk in Sacrament Meeting last Sunday, and I had butterflies in my stomach until I actually got up to the microphone it went away! Every one told me that I was super enthusiastic throughout my talk and I was really suprised by that. I'm very happy it's over, and I know that Heavenly Father helped me live through that talk! :)

Welp, it's almost time to go to school! Tonight I have my computer class. This semester I have made a lot of friends in each of my classes, so it has been a pretty amazing year! :)

Oh yeah! And my birthday is exactly 2 weeks away! I'm going to be 15!!! That is sooooo OLD!! :/

So I'm Pretty Much A Loser

Um yes...I AM a procrasinator thank you for judging me! So without further ado I will now go back to work after I post some of my new favorite songs hither so I can listen to it while I work through the long and grueling process of actually deciding what I want to write....

Percy Jackson Movie Coming Out Soon = AMAZINGLY AWESOME!!!!

2010-01-26T12:03:00.000-06:00

I have been in love with the Percy Jackson series for a while now and I think the movie looks AMAZING!!!! The boy they chose for Percy is adorable! ANd it looks pretty close to the book! Now everyone knows where I'll on Febuary 12th!!!!!!!!!

I Love This Song!!!! Um...Both Of Them

2010-01-25T11:35:00.003-06:00

I loved Adam Lambert on American Idol. Sadly, then he released two songs that were horrid and I was sad. This song had redeemed him in my eyes! I LOVE this song! Adam Lambert is so cute...

Ingrid Michaelson - Maybe

This is an amazing song. This is the first song that I have ever liked by her!

First Day of Tennis = Fail

2010-01-23T14:36:00.003-06:00

Today was my first day of my Tennis class. Before the class I told my mom that maybe I would find out that I am a Tennis Protege. Um.....Sadly this was not the case...at all. In fact I managed to hit the teacher with a ball, hit a window, and lose my ball at least eighty-nine times in the three hours I was there. It was pretty sad. So how is everyone in the Blog World?

New Songs! <3

Top Three Worst Christmas Songs Ever Created, Recorded, And Sold!!!!

2009-12-17T08:05:00.005-06:00

Whoo!!!! It's 8 days until Christmas!!!! I'm so excited but at the same time I'm totally confused!! I still feel full from Thanksgiving!!! Anyway since finishing school for the semester my crazy creative juices have begun to flow again! Um...I've been focusing them on a writing contest for the local library. Let’s just say the short story I'm writing is very interesting....And super duper crazy!

Okay, so I got sidetracked and forgot what I was going to write....Oh, yeah now I remember...Today I'm going to write about the 3 worst Christmas songs ever created. Now without further ado, my list of songs:

3) Santa Baby: This song could very well be number 1 but sadly the world has been polluted with worse. No matter how many times this stinky song is covered it is still terrible, horrible, no good, very bad song! I'm serious. I have never met a person who could stand to listen to that song after the actual singing starts. It's horrid! I'm considering bumping it to the number 1 spot, but sadly I must keep it here...

2) I Saw Momma Kissing Santa Claus: Not even young Michael Jackson could make this song tolerable. I have heard this song at least once an hour while suffering through the Christmas radio station is blaring from MY radio. If that radio wasn't mine I would have thrown the cord out, and beat the radio. All I can do though it kit my head against the wall and scream, "Please, please!! You win!!!!! I can't stand this music any longer! *tears* Just let me change it please!!" My siblings have no mercy; they'll make great villains one day. *shudder* this song deserves to be in the second place though...

1) Happy Christmas "War Is Over" otherwise known as So This Is Christmas: After much thought (and eardrum bleeding) have come to the conclusion that this song is the worst Christmas ever made, preformed, and sold. There are so many horrid things about this song so it was hard to condense everything I find annoying about it... First: John Lennon is not my cup a tea. I actually find his music mind-numbing, I cannot listen to him without wanting to curl up and fall asleep. Second: Yoko Ono. These two words explain so much. For years I thought that the backup singers were a bunch of tone-deaf children, it was recently that I was informed that it’s a bunch of tone-deaf children with a tone-deaf woman singing over them. Those poor children backup singers for the backup singer. Sad. I can’t stand all that “singing” in the background. It’s horrific! Third: (Yes I know. There are that many things wrong with this song) It’s so stinking over played on all Christmas music playing stations! It’s not even a good song people!!!! In my opinion this song deserves the title of worst Christmas song ever!!!

Thanks for reading….That’s all folks!!!

I LOVE MY DENTIST!!!!! <3

2009-12-08T11:12:00.003-06:00

I love my dentist!!!!!!! He is so nice and perky!!!! He cleaned up my "pearly-not-so-whites" today!!!!!! As soon as I got there he inquired, "And how are you today m'lady?" He is so awesome!!! <3!!!!!!!!!! We watched the cooking channel on TV while he worked on my teeth. It was amazingly awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He said funny things while polishing, and talked about food a lot and his cute family!!!!!!!!! Awww......He's so awesome!!!

*P.S. Mom I want that shirt that says "I Love My Dentist" for Christmas! Thanks! :)

My Favorite Christmas Song Ever!! <3

2009-12-08T08:33:00.000-06:00

I'M BORING!!!

2009-12-08T08:25:00.001-06:00

I'm boring!!! And sadly I know it! School hath sucked my creativeness out of me! :( Maybe after my final is over tonight I'll get some of it back!

Behold, My Forgetfulness Is Amazingly Awesome!!!

2009-12-07T07:53:00.002-06:00

I can't believe it! It's almost Christmas, I only have two more classes before school is over for this semester, and it snowed the whole day long on Friday!!!! It's so crazy weird!!!! So anyway...I can't really remember where I was going with this....Oh well!!!

Christmas Partay!!!!!

2009-12-05T09:18:00.006-06:00

Yesterday was our Ward Christmas Party!!! My dad and I helped set up tables and chairs and cover them on Thursday. And if I do say so myself it was amazingly awesome! Our table wrapping skillz wowed all the activity committee personnel so much that they have already booked us for next year! My family got to the party early and we set up the cups, and set the tables with butter and sour cream. It was amazing!!!!!! The primary children's songs were pretty, and Monkey and I scored a babysitting gig!!!! Yay! The kids are so cute! :)

Yay!

2009-12-04T14:25:00.002-06:00

It was the last day that Bro. Awesome taught me in Seminary! He made an amazing game for us to play, and it doubled as a game and as a review for everything we have learned!!! It was so much fun! And we got pumpkin muffins for snack! I'm still, however, sad that he's leaving us already!!!!

NOOOOOOO!!!!!

2009-12-03T09:05:00.004-06:00

Nooooooo! I got the horrible news today that my favorite Seminary teacher is moving to a new Stake!!!!! I told him that he could leave until the end of the school year, but he said that he didn't think his wife would agree with it!!!!!! I'm horrified!!! What if they call somebody more boring them my other teacher (No offense Bro. Boring)!!!!! I'll be doomed to repeat Freshmen Seminary!!!! I'm sad! :(

My Cooking Is Amazing!!! :)

2009-12-02T08:06:00.003-06:00

Yesterday I had my class!!! I got a 95% on my "Gay Marriage Compare/Contrast Paper"!!!!! Yay!!!!! And I got to watch my mom's Symposium speech!!! It was awesomeriffic! Yesterday afternoon I made a buttload of Sauerkraut cupcakes and two cakes!!! I loved doing it...but I was quite sick of the smell of sauerkraut by the end of my cooking adventure! Oh, and it was my first time ever to make sauerkraut stuff!!!

School, Happiness, 100% In Seminary = Awesomeness!!

2009-12-01T08:55:00.005-06:00

So today is the day! My research paper is due, and then I have a final next week!!! The fact that I have two major grades in two weeks is not exactly why I'm happy. I'm happy because after next week I will officially be done with my first semester of college!!!! It wasn't half as bad as I thought it was going to be. I can hardly wait for next semester!!!

I find myself looking forward to the new challenges of school, instead of dreading them. Going to school has been an amazing experience for me! My family helps me with so many things. And prayer has become a huge part of my life. I love all the changes that I have gone through since starting in August. It's been awesome!

The weather here has been amazingly awesome! And it's the first day of December!!! One of my favorite months ever!!!!!

*I also found out today that I can get my perfect 100% (even though I have "flagrant tardies") if I write 3 essays on scriptures that mean a lot to me!!! Yay!*

Venting Anger About Seminary!!!!!!!

2009-11-30T07:48:00.004-06:00

Did you know that we get graded in Seminary? My teachers told me the first day of class, but it was a surprise when I got a progress report today! Guess what stinky grade I got......

A 97%!!! 97% what is that all about? I know most people would say that it is still and "A" but I want an 100%!!!! Scripture reading/studying is my thing!!!!! I should have a perfect "100%"!!! I have never missed a class in all my Seminary time (3 months), and it's not my fault when I'm tardy! At least I'm honest on the sign in sheet! *insert angry sigh here*

Thanksgiving!!!!!!!!

2009-11-26T09:00:00.005-06:00

I sit here and suffer while "It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year" blast itself into my ears while I cringe, and scream inside. And just when I'm about to unplug the radio and hide the wire until after Christmas, I remember that it really is a wonderful time of the year! I get to go to my grandparents house, spend time with my family, and practice ignoring the annoying repetitious Christmas music that our local channels are already playing. It is wonderful because we are having amazing weather, and it is beautiful outside, and I have been able to sleep with my quilt without sweating in the night! I guess suffering through the stinky music will "build character"!!!! Maybe I'll become one of those crazy (somewhat awesome) people who listen to Christmas music all year because they can't get enough of it......*gasp* I guess I'll try to get my fill now....

Happy Thanksgiving!!!! What are you thankful for?!!!

I'm In Love!!!! With A Fictional Character and A Book!!! (Named Catching Fire/Peeta)

2009-10-29T09:46:00.005-05:00

Today was the day...... Today my heart broke into a million little pieces..... Today I screamed so much my throat started to hurt...... Today was the day that I finished Catching Fire!!!!!

It was so amazing!! As I said before, there were many parts were I screamed. Though it wasn't all in frustration! I loved it so much!! Yesterday when I was halfway through the book I asked my siblings,"Is it wrong to love a fictional character as much as I love Peeta?" I got five pairs of eyes simultaneously looking at me like was crazy! Yeah....I think they are accustomed to my book reading nerdiness....and screaming, and random laughing at parts I found hilarious, and crying "no Peeta I love you more than Katniss!!!" every few pages. I can't stop thinking about the book, and I'm anxiously waiting for the next one to come out!! I think I'm going to reread it after I finish this semester at school!!!! Love it!! Suzanne Collins did a wonderful job in twisting the story and making it unpredictable, and making me love characters that I usually wouldn't even like!!! She is my new favorite author!!!

Mister Sun, Sun, Mister Pimpster-Sun........

2009-10-05T09:26:00.002-05:00

A month ago one of my Seminary teachers have everyone in the class a name tag. It said of course our names and what ward we are in. The name card was plain, boring, and it was pitifully ugly. I decided that nothing that had my name written on it could be so lame and like everybody else's so I took it home with me. I armed myself with markers, and a pencil and I attacked that tag until no spot was left uncolored. I'm in love with my name tag's colorfulness!!!I drew a flower, made a colored border, colored in the letters, I even wrote "Be happy" in big happy yellow letters, and I drew a Pimpster-Sun on the front. I must say it was one of the most beautifully creative things that I have ever created.

(My Mister Pimp-sun resembled this sun only I drew him fiery orange spiky hair. I think they're related or something.....)

I started a trend!!!! Almost everybody in the class started decorating their name tags as soon as they saw how awesome mine looked. I thought that evrybody loved happy and fun stuff but this tells me otherwise:

I sat next to a boy named Jace this morning. Jace is surly, he talks in a monotoned voice, and he's not very friendly. As soon as I sat down I asked him how his weekend was, and he just grumbled at me. (I ignored his rudeness and went on smiling and acting like my dorky self.)Throughout class I noticed that Jace studying my tag like he was a name tag critic. (All his staring was making Mister Pimp-Sun blush!) About ten minutes until the end of class Jace turned to the boy next to him and whispered loud enough so I could hear too," That Lauren is sooo weird!! Look at that sun thing she drew! She is just weird!!! Isn't she?!!!" The other boy laughed as he pointed at Mister Pimp-Sun, and as he ran his finger over Mister Pimp-Sun's awesome hair in disgust!!!!!!

I was disgusted that he would dare to touch the awesomeness that is Mister Pimp-Sun at first. Then I laughed at Jace (on the inside) because I know that he has no idea how right he is indeed.........

"Hurry Let's Get Out Of Here Before We Catch That Weird Disease That Lauren Girl Has!!!!! Aeeeeeee!!!!"

2009-09-11T10:34:00.001-05:00

Last Friday something really embarrassing happened to me, and to make it worse it was at Seminary!!!!

Just so you know I love seminary! It's the best, and I learn a lot of new things everyday. So last Friday we were going over memorizing tips for Scripture Mastery, and it was pretty lame. (It was a rhyme thing to help us remember what the scriptures were about.) So I made a rap with it and here's how it went, "*beat box please* Yo, yo. 1st Nephi 3 "Prepares A Way For Me". 1st Nephi 19 "Scripture Likening". *That's right* 2nd Nephi 2 "Adam Fell For You".*point at the people next to you* Word. *random nerd gang signal*" (We have to learn 25 of these scriptures so I only did the first three in my rap......) My friend Cameo was laughing, and laughing at me. And then my teacher decided it was time to do it without our cheat sheets!! This was the first step toward my "crash and burn" moment....

I flipped my cheat-sheet over to fast and it drifted off my desk. Of course since I didn't learn anything but the beginning I needed it back right away. So I bent over in my to see where it had fallen, and I saw that it was in front of the desk. I knew I could grab it and be back in sitting position within a couple of seconds if I did it right. So I bent over and to my surprise and dismay the paper was indeed farther away then I thought! I reached as far as my T-Rex arms and stubby fingers would let me, I was inches from the paper. And then the second I touched the thought popped into my head,"Oh man.....I'm going to fall." And then KABLAM!!! Before I even realized what was happening I was on the ground looking up at the bottom of my chair with a the paper in my hands waving like a flag of surrender.

I quickly stood up, and accidentally kneed my chair making a loud noise as the chair moved into the table. That's when the class erupted in laughter. One girl laughed and said,"Oh my gosh!! Are you alright?" I was laughing and trying to avoid any eye contact, I told her I was okay and refrained from telling her that my pride had been wounded beyond repair. Two minutes later the class was still laughing, then suddenly it stopped in a second. I looked up and saw that my teacher was standing in front of me, and I realized that the kids in the class though I was in trouble. I thought I was to because he looked mad. I almost fell out my chair again when he smiled at me and said," No. You've got it all wrong. *shaking his head in mock sadness* "Adam fell" so you wouldn't have to!!" That got the class to laugh hysterically. I sat there shocked at first (mostle because that particular teacher is super serious and I couldn't believe you would crack a joke) and then I joined into the laughter.

At the end of class a bunch of people came up to me, and one girl told me," Dude, that fall was epic!!" A boy I don't know very well said,"Hey, thanks for the entertainment *giggle*!" Okay, I guess it wasn't as bad as it could have been. I could have knocked over the table, fallen on somebody, or something like super embarrassing like that. Or maybe I'm just lying to myself and it really was that bad.....

My First Dance!!!!!

2009-07-27T08:20:00.001-05:00

My first Stake Dance was Saturday night and it was awesomerific!!!!! It was a Quad Stake dance, so I was in no danger of not getting to dance with a boy. You see before the dance I made a long list of boys that I wanted to ask, but sadly it didn't work out well because half the boys on my list didn't show up!!! I didn't let that faze me though, I asked ~~all~~ almost all of the boys in my ward to dance. Then I danced with my friends Jazzy, and Jordan, and we made up crazy dance moves, and invited anyone who passed us to join in. (Everybody declined) We were awesome!!!

One of the last songs that the DJ played was The Apache!! I geeked out and at first I was going to get Cameo to dance with me but I couldn't see her anywhere. I refused to stay on the sidelines while amateur who didn't know the Apache butchered it so I ran up front and "danced" the Apache from start to finish, and then at the end everyone jumped as high as they could. It was so much fun! (Click HERE to read why I learned the dance, and then shook it front of all the youth in our Ward. *With Cameo*)

I don't ever talk to the boys in our ward, except for the two boys in my Sunday School class. When I was dancing with them I found out that they're all gentlemanly, and nice. I was pleasantly surprised! The president of the Mia Maids class presidency threatened to drag me to the dance by my hair if I didn't go. She won't have to threaten next time.....

*I asked every boy I danced with to dance, and a I loved seeing their surprised faces when I asked them twirl. Hardly any of them knew which was to turn!!!! It was the greatest!!*

My Palms Hurt Again As I Write About All The Injuries That Sustained While Rollerblading!!!!

2009-07-24T10:25:00.002-05:00

About three weeks ago my mom took my siblings and I to Two Dollar Tuesday at our local Roller Rink. I'm total klutz, so I spent most of my time falling and getting up off the floor before I could get hit. I fell in a lot of ways, and I don't really want to mention them all.......But I will tell you a few:

It was about my fourth time around, and I was still scared to death to get away from the wall! I had to though because a couple boys were talking to there mom's so I went a little way and then I fell, as I was falling I tried to make it as painless as possible but somehow I managed to land in the splits. The boys watched me as I landed, and then at the same time they went," Oooo. That has got to hurt!!!" Since I do splits in Kung-Fu it didn't hurt that bad, and because all the other places I'd fallen hurt worse falling in the splits was the best!

My mom is pretty good at rollerblading but for some odd reason she asked me to be her partner in the Couples Skate!!!! (You had to hold hands with somebody) I told her "No, way." but she took my hand anyway. I held her hand tight for fear of falling and getting stepped on by the really fast teenagers behind us, and I kept telling her "Please, let me go, I'm not ready for this. Please, I'm going to pull you down, and you're going to be mad at me!! Please, mom, please." And then I fell, my poor mom fell with me. We didn't get hit or anything but I felt bad, because my mom had a perfect falling record and I ruined it for her. It wasn't like I didn't warn her though! (I fell on my butt that time)

One of the times I fell, I was with Caterpillar and we both fell! A boy came up to me and said," Can I help you up?" I was embarrassed because he really wanted to help, but he didn't look strong enough to pull me up so I blushed and said,"Uh, thanks I got it." And I got up as fast as I could. (By that time I'd mastered getting up. I also had bruises on both palms, but, up and down my legs, and my knees but whatever it takes to get better. Right?) The boy nodded and he smiled at me and then skated away. (Caterpillar was alright)

I had a ton of fun. But I'm positive that I'm never ever going to be able to this.........

*I think I should stick with solid ground, no jumps for me thank you very much........

Thank You......I Guess.....

2009-07-15T14:42:00.003-05:00

The other day I started talking to the new guy at Kung-Fu. We both stretched while we talked, and the subject matter was all over the place. In the middle of our conversation he told me about his siblings and then he asked about mine. I told him their names, and went down their ages. Then he asked," So who is the oldest?" When I told him that I was, his eyes got really big and he asked again," You're the oldest?! Oh, well you look like it." I'm pretty sure I looked confused for a few seconds, and then I said," Thank you.....I think." And that was were the conversation ended for that day.

The next day he sat next to me doing form practice. He smiled and said," You're Norma, right?" "What????!!!!!" I said internally, and laughed on the outside. I just couldn't believe that he thought my name was Norma!!! Norma? Seriously?!!!! That's just crazy! It doesn't
t even sound like my name!!! Plus I've always said that Norma sounds like an old lady name, don't you agree? (Please pardon me if you happen to be named Norma!)

Anyway, in my rushed to correct him I said," No!!! My name is Laura!!!" (Which is totally not my name! It is kind of a mix between "Norma" and my real name though....) I smacked my forehead, and whispered urgently,"Wait, no!!! My name's not Laura either!!! Oh gosh, I just told you the wrong name." The poor guy just sat there looking at me while I laughed at my stupidity.

I think he might be a little worried about my mental health now. He'll probably think that I have triple personality!!! I'm Sunbum, Laura, and Norma all in one, and each one is crazier then the next.....

Due To The Request Of One Of My Favorite Bloggers (Sister Face) I Shall Now Tell You All About My Week At Girls Camp!!!!

2009-06-30T15:21:00.003-05:00

*Warning: This post contains a lot of exclamation points, and it's probably not totally grammatically correct!

One of the best parts for me is that mom was able to drive us to camp this year!!!! And what made it better was that my friend Cameo rode with us!!!!! I had so much fun singing/talking with my mom, Cammie, and Monkey on the way there, and then showing my mom around camp when we got there!!!! Okay on to the Girls Camp part:

Girls Camp was amazing!!! I learned so many things, and since this year we focused on unity I was able to make a lot of friends outside of the 3rd year girls. As I told you in my last post, our theme was W.O.W (Women of Worth). We learned about having “The Hawaiian Spirit” on the first day, and the leaders challenged us to be nice to everyone by smiling and say "Aloha" to everyone we saw. I was pretty much the only girl who did that throughout the whole week!!! And then I took it to the next level.....

I woke up before everyone in the mornings and I would be the first one ready to go so I could say my new favorite phrase in Hawaiian “Aloha Kakahiaka” which is “Good Morning to You” in Hawaiian. I might have annoyed a couple girls by being so cheery so early in the morning, but a lot of people like it, so negativity didn't bother me.....Much.

I was not thrilled at first when I found out that our ward was going to be sharing a cabin, and that we would be moving out of the cabin where we'd been for two years in a row, but then I found our who we were going to be sharing with!! Monkey and I have a really good friend in that ward, and the news got better when we found out that we got the HUGE cabin!!! I was really happy about sharing after that. I made a lot of new friends in the other ward, and two girls in particular were so sweet with me!! They were both 1st years, but unlike 1st years in years past they weren't intimidated by the older campers (I was so glad that they weren't because that would've stunk) one of them approached me at lunch on the second day and said," Do you want to be my friend?" I was so surprised because that had never happened to me before and of course I said,"Yes!!!" She looked so happy, and then I felt really happy!!! That was an awesome experience for me!!

As a 3rd year I had to teach a little lesson before our night hike, and that made me want to be a Youth Leader real bad!!! (The night hike was totally awesome, and we've never done it before!!!! The Youth Leaders taught lessons under flashlights at little stations, and they taught about divinity. After the hike we sung hymns and that was really beautiful)

This year was by far the best year for me because not only was I able to feel the spirit strongly throughout the week, but I was also able to learn new things that helped me build my testimony.

On the last day our Youth Leaders dressed up as Women Of Worth from the scriptures (Esther, Emma Smith, Mary, ect...) our Leaders taught us about each of these women’s acts of faith, love, courage, and patience! And we learned how to be like them in our everyday lives!!!

I cried a couple times at camp, and I baled like a baby at testimony meeting (as usual), and I got to know the girls in my ward better!!! I love Girls Camp!!! I can't wait until I can share my experiences, and knowledge with the younger girls when I'm a Youth Leader!!! In two years!!! (Oh, and 4th year sounds pretty awesome too :)

So that's all I have to write for right now, I pretty much covered everything I wanted to, I need to write it all into my journal before I forget details!!! Aloha (bye) everybody!!

Girl's Camp! Woot!!!!!!!!

2009-06-12T18:19:00.003-05:00

Oh my goodness!!! Camp is in two days and I'm so excited!!!

Im our ward we have an awesome camp leader, and she invited Monkey and I over to her house today to decorate camp shirts, and love note jars!! She is totally awesome!! :)

Last year Monkey and I made our own camp shirts and so they took the idea from us. (And I got it from my mom!) Our theme this year is on Divine Nature, and Women Of Worth (Or WOW)!!!!

Okay, that's all.

A Wise Roach Slayer Once Said," Roaches Must Die!!!" Seriously What Do They Other Then Spread Disease?

2009-06-08T07:34:00.009-05:00

Roaches......The most disgusting bugs ever. I learned some new things that I didn't want to know about them today..... You can become allergic to roaches if you inhale, or accidentally eat something with the allergens that they produce. (The allergens come from the roaches poop. Yuck!!!)

I can't believe that I didn't use my Roach Slaying powers to kill the four fugitive tree roaches that broke into our house!! Instead of destroying them I took them to our neighbor's yard and said," Go! Live your life, and don't even let me catch you again." And I walked away feeling happy! I was totally going against my Roach Killing nature by doing that!!! I have concluded that those accursed Tree Roaches brainwashed me!!! That's right! Brainwashed!!! I didn't have any desire to kill them, and I suddenly started hating the sight of Raid. (They either brain washed me or I'm slowly turning into a giant tree roach)

Thankfully I came to my senses!!!!! I will never let my talent for killing Roaches go to waste. I will not let my Raid can collect dust on the shelf in my super secret room where I first became The Roach Slayer!!! I will bring justice to this household once again! There will be no Roaches left to poison my food, or make my ~~mom and~~ siblings scream and run in fear!!! I will be victorious!!

*Where I live we have a terrible problem with bugs!!! And we live right next to four huge pine trees so we get a ton of tree roaches!!! They're huge!!!*

I Don't Look Anything Like I Did In Kindergarten, But My Old Friend Does!!!!

2009-06-04T11:36:00.009-05:00

Every year of school I got put in the same class as Clayton. Clayton was my friend so I didn't mind. Clayton called a lot and always said," Mr. Infidel (my dad) may I please talk to Sunbum." He walked over to my house even after I started homeschooling, and asked for me. But after a while he stopped coming. This never bothered me, actually I never thought anything about it until recently. When I say "recently" I mean last Tuesday.....

He was riding his bike past our house, and I was having a running competition against Monkey. He watched us as we ran around the front yard and then back, and I expected him to say hi and leave as he always does when he passes. But he didn't. So to break the silence I said,"Hi, Clayton." And gave him a big goofy smile. He looked confused and he asked," Uh, where's Sunbum?" Then I was confused, I furrowed my eyebrows and I said," I am Sunbum." He looked surprised "Oh, you look different." He told me. "Uh, thanks so do you." I said still shocked that he didn't recognize me, I mean it hasn't been that long since I've seen him! There was a long silence again, I didn't know what else to say so I just looked at him. That's when I noticed that he didn't look different. No matter how many years have past I can still he still looked almost exactly the same as he did in kindergarten!!!!

I'm so stupid because I told Clayton," Sorry, but I'm going to have to take that back, you look the same actually." He shrugged his shoulders (his expression hadn't changed since he had found out that I was Sunbum), he asked how my mom was doing, and then he left......

*I felt terrible for that last comment, I was just taken by surprise. He'll probably never talk to me again....*

I Guess I'm Deaf AND Dorky!!!!!

2009-05-28T07:50:00.006-05:00

It all started when I was stretching in Kung-Fu. When I stretch I don't think about anything but stretching, so a lot of times I don't realize what's going on around me. That's why this happened to me.......

I knew something was up when I saw all the people next to me move to get farther down the bar. Sadly the only thing I that went through my mind was," Man, do I stink that bad? How can that be? I just took a shower!" For about five seconds more it was silent in the room, (the silence should have been a huge sign that there was something wrong) and then I heard yelling! And it was right next to me! I turned around as quickly as I could and there was Master J. and he was ~~yelling~~ saying," You deaf? You not hear? Move over there." And he pointed to a crowded spot on the wall. I made the mistake of looking up, and I saw that everybody in the whole room was watching me in silence. I blushed so hard my arms started to burn, and then I looked at the ground again and said," Oh, I'm sorry." Then I walked shamefully between one of my sisters and a little boy, to make things worse Monkey pushed my other sister out of the way so she could tease me the rest of the stretching time.

*Yeah, this was not one of my finest moments.

Movie Review On: Race To Witch Mountain

2009-05-26T17:30:00.001-05:00

Today I saw Race To Witch Mountain at the dollar movie. I for one was not impressed. The only thing they had against the original movie is that they cast Alexander Ludwig as one of the lead male characters, he's one hundred percent more adorable then the other boy. Other than that the original wins by a long shot, although I didn't particularly like the sequel to it......

This movie had way too many car chases for my taste, and even though I've liked Annasophia Robb in everything I've seen her in; I thought she was a little over the top in this one. The worst part though was in the middle of the movie when they dropped the "Global Warming" bomb. *sigh* Just so you know I rolled my eyes sarcastically at that part. (I recycle paper, and I pick up trash off the street when I can. And I never litter. I think I'm helping the environment by doing that, now stop trying to guilt me!) I have to give Disney a couple points for being subtle about it though....

Out of five stars I give this movie a: 3 1/2 (I added the half a point for the cast. Or more specifically Alexander Ludwig)

P.S. I think he has very pretty eyes, and he's Canadian!!!

New Favorite Show, Heartbreak, and One Of My Awesome New Skills!

2009-05-20T10:48:00.007-05:00

I admit it! I'm in love with Glee!!! It's funny, and they have lots of amazing singers!!! When my dad came home from work yesterday he said," Sunbum, I saw this show that I think you'll really like." "What is it called?" I asked. "Glee, I think." I clapped my hands and said," I already watched that show on Tuesday!!! I love, love, love it!!!! It's so good." He nodded his head and said,"I knew you would like it." *sigh* I despise being predictable.

At the end of the Pilot episode I found out that the whole season won't air until the Fall!!!! I was really sad when I saw that......Then I went and put the Glee version of Don't Stop Believing on my play list, and much to my families dismay I've been playing it nonstop ever since. (I don't like the original song, but their version is really good!)

On Wednesday for Mutual we learned knitting. I loved it! I've wanted to learn for a long time, and even though I wasn't very good at it I had a ton of fun! The sister that taught us is trying to make 100 baby caps by Thanksgiving, and she asked if we would help her!

*I got another haircut, it's not very noticeable though.*

Writer's Block Is Making Me REALLY Mad Now!!! Gosh, I Haven't Written In Two Weeks Because Of It!!!!!pout

2009-05-18T08:46:00.007-05:00

This is how I look and feel.....

I'm having serious "Writer's Block" right now. I can't seem to write anything without getting a huge headache!!! Ahhh! I really want to write a funny story that happened to me yesterday, and I can't write it because every time I try my head starts to pounding. *SIGH* I think it has something to do with being old.....Or something.

If I Were A Rich Man...Hum...Deh...Dum...Dum.........

2009-05-08T09:39:00.006-05:00

First: I would like to thank Monkey, and Nadia for the awesomerific birthday posts you guys wrote me (I love them!), and also all those who wished me a happy birthday!! :)

Second: I have a busy, busy weekend ahead of me, so I'm trying to get all my homework done this morning. (Writing is one of the things I have to check off) Tonight I'm going to see 17 Again with my grandparents, aunts, and my uncle. Then tomorrow I'm going to a Christian rock concert with my other grandmother, uncle, Monkey, and Buster!! And Jimmy Needham is going to be there!! Woot!!

Jimmy Needham is the Jason Mraz of the Christian Rock World.......Seriously he is!

*Note: I'm listening to If I Were A Rich Man from Fiddler On The Roof. (One of my favorite musicals!!!) What is your favorite musical?*

Today I Am Officially OLD!!!!

2009-05-05T08:12:00.008-05:00

Yup. That's right today is my 14th birthday. (I was born on 5-5-95!!! Isn't that awesome?!) I can't believe it! It doesn't feel like it's a year since whining about turning 13!! Anyway so my mom made me a delicious birthday breakfast that consisted of: Pancakes (raspberry, and cinnamon), cantaloupe, mini sausages, and hash browns!! It was all so good! And then my brothers and sister decorated my bed so when I woke up I was confused, and they decorated a birthday chair for me!!! I LOVE my family!!
Yesterday I was talking to two girls in Kung-Fu named Diana, and Briana (they're sisters) and telling them about my birthday. I kept laughing because they were saying," Girl, you're going to need a walker, and dentures for your birthday presents this year......because you're old!!!" Then all the girls started telling me how old I looked to them. Briana said "15". Caterpillar said "25". And Diana said "400"! I told them I wanted to be 400. They all looked at me like I was crazy and said in unison,"Why?" "Because I look really good for 400!!! Duh!"

The last book in the Percy Jackson and The Olympians series comes out today!!!!! I love that series!!!!!! I can't wait to get to read it!!! Woot!

Go to HERE to Monkey's Blog to check out her awesome post!!!

New Music!!!! Otherside by Mikeschair!!!

2009-04-22T09:47:00.008-05:00

The moment I heard "Otherside" by Mikeschair on XM radio I knew I had found a new song to love, overplay, and then finally get sick of!!! Sadly I couldn't find them on Project Playlist, so I had to go to my second source of awesome music.....Purevolume!!! (Note: The video is boring, I just put it up on my Blog so I can listen to it...repeatedly)

Otherside

Weird Dream Monday Is Back!!!!!!

2009-04-20T08:00:00.004-05:00

Lately I've had a hard time sleeping because the dreams I have are so weird!!!

Having A Hero Inside Does Not Mean You're An X-Men-

I was in the movie theater with two of my siblings and watching an X-Men movie. About half way through the movie it froze and wouldn't play! Then my dad came into the theater and yelled at me,"It's all you're fault!!! There are professionals that are supposed to play the movie, why couldn't you wait?!!" I didn't have a clue as to why it was my fault so I turned to my dad and said,"I didn't do anything, I have no idea why you're yelling at me but I'm leaving!" I woke up as soon as I walked out of the theater......

After using the bathroom, and finally falling asleep again the next dream started:

I was running for my life! People were shooting at me, and I was dodging the bullets. I was wearing the most uncomfortable looking outfit, it was a dress like thing, that was long and really heavy. After running for a long time I made it far enough into the woods that the people who were shooting had stopped. As soon as I knew I was safe the scene changed; so I was watching this girl and a boy talking, the boy was saying that something was wrong with our leaders that they had been infiltrated and that nobody was safe! He also said that their plan was to destroy all mutants!!! Both the boy and girl quickly departed and as soon as the boy got far enough away from the girl people in black suits snuck behind him and kidnapped him without making the slightest noise!!

As soon as the black suited people left I somehow made it to where the girl was. She looked scared and she went into this large house, there was a ton of teenagers in costumes. (they were superheroes) As I stood in the room trying to hear what the "leaders" were saying I heard one of them whisper to the group," There's someone that's not supposed to be here. I can feel her presence." I knew she was talking about me so I ran out of the house and back into the safety of the trees, I ran until I came up to a man, he told me to run away and never come back! He told me that all of the mutants were going to be destroyed and that I needed to escape and stay away from the "leaders! Then he shape-sifted into a wolf and ran toward the house.

I continued to run away, until a boy ran faster then I have ever seen anybody stopped me and started telling me how he needed help to fight the "leaders". I guess I agreed to do it because the next thing I remember is fighting this lady in an outfit similar to the one I was wearing in the beginning of the dream. I fought her for so long I was ready to pass out, she told me that there was no way that I could beat her because my only power was to be invisible and she said that I was weak!!! With my last bit of strength I smirked and knocked her off her feet, and then "Flash" (The boy that asked me to fight with him) saved me by taking her away just as she was going to blow me away. The last thing I did before I passed out from exhaustion was weakly smile and say "Thank you" to the boy who had just saved my life......

*Wasn't that totally weird?!!!!*

What Happens When Daredevils Take On Crafts.......

2009-04-16T15:04:00.002-05:00

For the past two weeks I've been eagerly awaiting my chance to learn how to quilt with the women in our Ward!!!! I went with Monkey this morning, and not only did I make a lap quilt but I also found that I love quilting!!!!! Because I was thinking so much about quilting I think it was hammered into my sub-conscience mind.........That's the only thing that can explain this dream, or I'm just weird. You choose.

The Dream-
In my dream I was running in the woods with a pile of fabric in one hand, and a sewing machine in the other. In the middle of a small clearing was a table, so I went up to the table and quickly laid out my stuff and started quilting. I was just a quarter of the way done when something crashed through the bushes behind me, one hand was still sewing while the other was hitting the creature that was trying to attack me. I kicked and hit the stuffing out of the thing, and it left battered and bruised with it's tail between it's legs. I just shook my head in annoyance and went back to quilting with both hands. Then two new creatures came out of the bushes!!! Again I fought and quilted at the same time, and finally when I defeated that set of creatures I finished the quilt!!!! It was beautiful!! As I was admiring the beauty of my creation another one of the creature things came behind me and pounced, and I woke up.... (I don't remember what I was wearing, but I'm pretty sure it was probably a reality show or something....I bet it was called: EXTREME QUILTING!!)
Who needs Extreme Sports, or Extreme Ironing when you can do Extreme Quilting? Seriously, there is no competition!!! Extreme Quilting is the best of the three by far!

13 Is OLD!!!

2009-04-08T08:55:00.004-05:00

Happy Birthday Monkey!!!

You and your ginormous booty!

I love the Spaghettios pig!

This is exactly what I was talking about! I would be able to make a real birthday post if I didn't have to delete so many of these kinds of pictures!

We both are! No matter how many times you try to deny it!

One of the few pictures of just you!

Before you were a Kung-Fu person........

I guess a pine needle isn't as good a candle but if the wish you made that day came true it was totally worth it......Oh wait! I'm still here so it must not have worked. :)

Wow! You look happy in this picture even though you don't like Smores chips!

Don't hurt me for putting this up! *me running to hide*

Your new favorite show!

Everybody who wants to wish Monkey a "Happy, Happy Birthday" come HERE!!!!!

Ha! I Embarrassed Myself In Front Of Strangers And Now I'm Pretending That I Actually Enjoyed It!!!!!

2009-04-06T08:20:00.008-05:00

I can't seem to hold in my craziness/weirdness anytime, but it seems like when I eat it gets worse. So the only thing I had working in my favor when my family went to Golden Corral Saturday was my table manners........

The Good Part: Uh....I didn't eat anything that made me feel sick, and I got perfectly cooked Brussels sprouts. (Ooh. Are you jealous? Yeah, I didn't think so.)

The Bad Part: I went up for dessert, and as usual I couldn't decide because everything looked good. After a couple minutes of careful consideration of each option I went with the banana pudding. (It was fresh, and I saw the lady make it. And it looked really good.) So I walked up and the moment I grabbed the spoon the Twinkies slogan popped into my head, and refused to stay inside. I thought that I was safe because I didn't see anyone around me so I opened my mouth and said," Where's the cream filling? Now that's the stuff...Hostess!" I did the voice and everything!!!! I didn't feel embarrassed until I turned around and realized that I wasn't alone. I looked up and gave the guy behind me a nervous smile before almost running back to the table.

*I don't even like Twinkies....*

Uh....Hi Missionaries......Would You Like To Come Back At A More Appropriate Time?

2009-03-30T09:55:00.005-05:00

I have no idea what I ate the day for lunch but it must have been BAD, because I had major bathroom problems every ten to fifteen minutes.......

It was about ten minutes before we had to leave for Kung-Fu and I was minding my own business while doing my "business" when Monkey flew through the bathroom door and frantically said,"Sunbum, the missionaries are here and they want to use the bathroom." She had the face she uses when she's messing with me so I just laughed and said," Yeah right Monkey, I'm not going to fall for it this time." "Uh.....Sunbum, I'm not kidding with you, they really are here." "Sure." Was my sarcastic response. Then Buster opened the door and his eyes were practically popping out of his head as he said,"Get out of the bathroom!!!!! The missionaries need to use it and it's dirty!!!" I knew he wasn't kidding because Buster would never open the door while I'm in there without a real reason. I freaked out when I realized this and told him,"Shoot, shoot, shoot!!! I'm POOPING!!!" At the moment I said the magic word "POOPING" I saw a missionary looking right back at me though the open door!!!!! As I was trying to get done as fast as possible I had to tell a distraught Buster,"Shut the stinking door. Now!!!!!!!!!" I tried to whisper but just ended up being louder because of the echo of the bathroom! I wasn't finished with my "business" but I knew I had to get out. I hurried off the toilet and to my horror I came to realize that there was no air freshener in there! (We had just run out) If I could hardly breath in there the missionaries would probably die! I was going to scream in frustration but I realized that it could be taken for something else......, so I quietly cursed whatever I ate and bad timing.

*Terrible right? Well now I can't see the missionaries without wanting to run away in shame......*

Musical Review Monday Presents: The Opinionated Musical Reviewers Review On The Musical South Pacific!

2009-03-16T11:30:00.002-05:00

I watched this musical last Sunday with my mom and the select few of my brothers and sisters who can actually stomach musicals with me. South Pacific wasn't anything special, it was pretty lame to be honest.

These are my thoughts on South Pacific The Musical and its "Leading Lady": It was one thousand percent better than the wretched musical Carousel that's for sure. But the leading lady best known for singing,"I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair." was down right annoying. As soon as she found out that the guy she liked had "colored" children she ran crying because she couldn't possibly love a man who had children with a (deceased) "colored" women. That's not the worst part though!!!! On their first date he told her,"You know, I killed a man in France and that is why I am here on this island." What do you think her reaction was? Do you think she was horrified and ran away like she did when he told her about his kids? If you do think that you're wrong, so very wrong. That's right people, he reveals that he's a murderer on their first date and she sat there and smiled while asking him,"Would you like more sugar in your tea?" (Just kidding about the tea thing. Sadly that's was the only thing I was kidding about) What kind of person is she anyway? (Answer: A man hungry one.)

Coming Up: Complaints about the lead male role.......

Good News, Bad News, And Beans

2009-03-13T11:04:00.005-05:00

Bad News: The Art Museum trip was cancelled yesterday due to bad weather. *sniffle*

Good News: It's cold again!!! I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am not to sweat when I go outside!!!!

Now since I don't have an excuse to skip Blogging I gift you with this story:

A couple minutes ago while all my siblings and I were sprawled across my moms bed my sister Monkey started chanting,"Frijoles! Frijoles! Frijoles!" I was puzzled to why she would be saying that repeatedly so I said,"Uh. Do you know that "Frijoles" means beans?" "Really?" She asked incredulously. "I thought it meant tacos or something....." *me shaking my head in disbelief*

Different Story:

Caterpillar: That's a bloody lie!!

Mom: The lie is bleeding?

Me: Yes. It's no longer white.

I'm going to the Art Museum today!!! What does that mean to you? Well, it means that I won't have time to actually Blog anything......That's why I'm going to share some of my favorite songs/videos with you! Enjoy!

I'm Alive!

2009-03-02T09:44:00.001-06:00

The camp out = Totally awesome!

What I did at the camp out: When I first got there I helped to set up one of the tents. Then we went and I learned how to make two kinds of fires without matches, and how to put fires out. I learned how to cook with a dutch oven, and how to make biscuits in an aluminum box!

I gave up smores for dutch oven peach cobbler!!!!! I don't regret it because it was extremely good, but I live for smores and I didn't even make one!!!! *sigh*

For the first time ever I almost pulled an all nighter! I fell asleep about two hours before we had to wake up to go, and even then I was the first one awake and ready to hike. (I was awake because I had to go to the restroom, again...)

While sitting around the campfire I told stories about using a Port-A-Pot at an Indian Festival.....*shudder* I don't recommend the experience.

I ran to the Port-A Potty a couple ~~dozen~~ times throughout the night/morning. As I was running (for the fifth or so time) I didn't see the support string sticking out at least three feet away from another tent, I crashed into so hard that I was sent flying back in shock. I could hardly hold it in so I quickly got up on my feet and asked,"Was that a booby trap, or what? *saying back and forth* I mean Sorry, I'm so sorry....." *running away as fast as I can* Then I had to pee in the dark because the girl with the flashlight couldn't catch up in enough time. That's when I found out that it was super warm in the Port-A Potty so I spent a little more time then necessary in that tight little space; just trying to warm myself before having to go back into the cold and hold the flashlight for the other girl.........

*To wrap this all up I had an amazing time, I got to know some of the girls that I don't know so well, and I learned a lot of new things!*

Making Taco Salad, Watching American Idol, Getting Packed For An Over Night Camp Out, And Other Fun Stuff That I did On Thursday!

2009-02-27T13:21:00.005-06:00

My taco salad didn't look quite like the one above.....It looked ten times better!!! My family thinks that my "taco salad making skills" need work. I can't say that I agree with their opinion though, I mean I didn't miss any of the ingredients like I usually do. So that proves that I'm getting better already.

Adam is one of my favorite contestants this season on American Idol, and um.....I love his hair, and the way he dresses. I was so glad that he made it and not Nick/Norman Gentle. I didn't think Nick/Norman was funny I thought he was totally annoying, he did have an okay voice but I could only stand his performances if I just listened and averted my eyes from the TV to save myself from being embarrassed for him.......

I have a camp out tonight for Girls Camp certification!!! Usually I pack so much stuff that I can barely lift my bags off the ground, but this time I packed light. I actually packed less then my sister!!!! All of my stuff fit in a backpack with room to spare, and I have extra clothes! Woot!! (We're going to be camping in tents, and trying to survive without Internets for a couple hours today and tomorrow. Yay! Maybe I'll break my addiction......)

Yeah, Well I Got Tired Of Your Name So I Changed It And Stuff.....

2009-02-26T10:46:00.011-06:00

Yesterday I got my sword!!! I can't believe I've advanced to Sword Forms already!!! I'm super excited to start, but I'm a little scared of cutting myself while learning! (Just like Cutter-Dude)

One of the boys in Kung-Fu named his sword: Picklepimp after the sword that he fights with in his favorite video game. I love the name Picklepimp!! I want to name my sword Picklepimp. I don't think I can live without something named Picklepimp in my life. I think it's an extremely funny name, and I want to steal it from him.....

I still haven't found the perfect name for my bo-staff, and I've had it for months! I have a really hard time choosing names, I always want to go back and change it.....What do you think I should name my sword?

*I named the skeleton pen I got for Christmas "Killian", I really like that name and I haven't had the desire to change it yet! (That's a record or something!)*

Yesterday I went to my grandparents house to go and see their new dog. While we were there some of us started playing their Wii, and the rest of us watched a movie. While I was watching the movie my dad walked into the room and said,"Connor is here." I couldn't believe what I was hearing so I said,"What?!!....um....I mean so what? Who cares?" Then my aunt smiled and sweetly said,"Sunbum, will you go and get me a glass of water from the kitchen?" "Uh, sure." I answered. So I walked down the stairs and saw him. I gasped in horror when I found that in fact my dad wasn't lying to me, he truly was there sitting on the sofa where I had just rested my butt on, then I realized that his dad was Home Teaching!!! I pulled myself together and ran past the living room where they were sitting (he was facing my way so of course he saw), and into the kitchen. I fumbled while trying to pull a glass down as fast as possible, and accidentally made a semi-loud clinking noise. I saw him watching me as I finally got the glass, fill it with water, and then take off back to the stairs. Well in my haste to get away from his intense gaze I tripped on the fourth step up. *blush* Most of the water in the cup splashed onto the floor and wall, I fell on my already bruised leg, and all was silent when I stupidly said,"Ow." I just wanted to die, but I had to clean it up so that's just what I did. After I cleaned I picked my disgraced self up off the floor, and sorrowfully carried the water back to my aunts room. My dad laughed and laughed when I told him what had happened to me, and so then I had to laugh and tell him with my hands upon my hips,"You know what, I don't care what Connor thinks anyway....I mean I never talk to him so he can never bring it up, and I don't care about him so he can think whatever he wants!!! Because I don't care!!." *blush again* (I vowed right then and there that I will never talk to him.) Then after laughing at myself I got thirsty......*sigh* I pretended not to see him as he watched (yes, watched) me gulped down two cups of water, and then run as fast as I could up the stairs. *aggravated sigh*

*I should be mad at myself for being such a weeny, but I just want to be mad at him because if he wasn't watching then I wouldn't have been nervous and done all of those things. Okay, I might have tripped without him......*

When Somebody Thinks You're A Boy When You're Most Definitely A Girl Then It's Probably Time To Change Your Look!!!

2009-02-18T09:31:00.009-06:00

Last Friday I went to volunteer at the elementary schools Valentine's Party. I had a good time, and the kids were really funny.....

1st Grade Class Party: The first grade classes were doing Valentine Card Scrapbooks for their project. (I liked that better then the "Caterpillar Of Love" thing the third graders did) I helped this one little boy who was uninterested in doing anything other than his Transformers Puzzle Valentine card he had gotten from a friend. As I was "helping" him glue things into his book he looked up and asked,"Why are you wearing nail polish? You're a boy!!!!" I just about fell over in surprise. I looked at the boy, laughed, and then told him,"Well, actually I'm a girl." "Really?" asked the boy. "Yes, really. I promise I am not lying to you!!!" I replied smiling and still laughing on the inside. I finished helping the boy, and then we moved on to the game. You wouldn't believe how many first graders love the word "Karma", and how many times they use it in a sentence when they're losing a game!!! (That was my team *sniff* I'm so proud of them, and their big vocabularies. I still think they're awesome even though they lost the game :))

To My Friend Nancy Face!!!!!!! (Thank You Edition)

2009-02-13T20:59:00.001-06:00

Lately I've been terrible about doing "Thank You Posts"! So I'm going to do one to my friend: Nancy Face!!!

The awesomerific Nancy Face has sent me a whole lot of stuff and I still haven't thanked her for it!!! (Please don't think I'm ungrateful, because in truth I really love everything!) First she sent me a huge envelope of candy a couple months ago (I shared.....A bit), and I never Blogged about it because somehow the pictures disappeared or got deleted, and I didn't think my post could be completely without showing how happy I was to open the package and stuff....

On Monday I opened the mailbox and saw my name standing out on one of the envelopes, and then I saw who it was from........ One thing about me is that I love getting things with my name on it, and a second thing is that I love anything Face. Anyway so Nancy Face sent me an adorable Valentine's Day card!!!! (I really did almost pee because I was so excited. ;)) So this is what I have to say: THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!!! I think you're totally awesome Nancy Face!!!!!! And Happy Valentines Day!!!!!!

Yeah, That's Right I Listen To Christian Rock Music.....

2009-02-11T10:37:00.007-06:00

Addison Road- Hope Now

My grandmother took me to see them yesterday!!! They are one of my favorite Christian Rock bands ever, because they remind me of Paramore (one of my favorite Alternative groups ever...). The video is kind of boring, but I think the song is super pretty. They were absolutely amazing live. And even though the lead singer was totally pregnant she still jumped around the stage, and was energetic. Her voice was also very powerful, she was awesome!!!!

The New Family Pet Is......A Pig?

2009-02-09T08:30:00.004-06:00

We got a guinea pig on Saturday, and we named her Ophelia. Guinea Pig = Cute, but not very bright or exciting pet. I like my ~~butt~~ flower sniffing dog better than her......

Even MORE Hair Trouble!!!!!!

2009-02-07T14:13:00.001-06:00

Ahhhhh!!!!! I'm so frustrated!!!!!! My mom got me "Nuclear Pink" semi-permanent hair dye from Hot Topic the other day. I asked my dad to help me put it in this morning, and he and my sister did my hair together. We followed the directions precisely, but all the color washed out after an hour of waiting!!!!! *huffy sigh* I'm very upset about this!!!! I think I'm going to dye my hair permanent red like my dad recommended. :(

Weird Dream Monday Returns!!!!......On A Friday....

2009-02-06T09:00:00.002-06:00

I had a super weird dream last night, so of course I have to Blog about it!

In my dream I was walking in a forest or something and admiring the beauty of nature. As I was walking through the trees a roach ran right next to me and started purring and rubbing against my shoe. Yes, my friends I said purring! Then when I looked down I saw that the roach was pink!!! But the weirdest part is that I didn't even try to kill it! Instead I bent down and scooped it up and then all these other pink roaches came up to me and wanted me to hold them also. I woke up just as my dream self started whispering to the pink roaches in a baby voice,"Who's the cutest little roach? Yes, that's right you are, you are." I'm completely disgusted with my dream self!!!!! How could she do that to me?

After I woke up I realized that I was thirsty, so I tentatively got out of bed and did a fast pink roach search before drinking, and then again before running back under the covers.......
*Whatever. I didn't know where the Raid was, and you can never be too careful when it comes to avoiding uninvited pink roaches unarmed! *shudder**

Seeding Fruits, Dancing To Music, Sewing With Pink Thread, And Other Fun Stuff That I Like Doing!!!!

2009-02-05T11:27:00.004-06:00

Today I learned how to use pomegranates! You see my mom scored a sweet deal on them at our second home......Kroger! We stocked up on those suckas and brought them home with us! We didn't realize until later that not one of us had any idea of how to eat, cook, or even use a pomegranate. I was then assigned to look up recipes and use them up before the poms went bad. At first I was vigilant, but after two days of failure to find advice I gave up and forgot about them.

For some reason I decided today that I was going to: Sew the sofa cushions back together, fix the glorious mushroom chair and make it even more glorious, do something with the pomegranates, and Blog about it all before noon!!! So now I've almost done all those things!!! Okay, so back to the pomegranates.......The first thing I did was google "Pomegranate Recipes" and surprisingly I found exactly what I was looking for. (Alright I'm not going to go through all of the long grueling steps of peeling, pitting, and seeding the pomegranates.) On the website it said that most people don't have patience with separating the seeds from the bitter membrane pieces that protect the seeds.......

The best part about this is that I actually enjoyed the long process! I guess I do have a little bit of patience after all!!!! As I was seeding and dancing to my music I noticed that when I have music playing I can concentrate and enjoy things that are usually a chore for everybody else. I love music!!!

One Of My Most Favorite Books Ever!!!!!!

2009-02-04T13:44:00.005-06:00

I read Flipped a couple years ago, and while I loved it I did not fully appreciate it. I've had it for a few days now and I've read it cover to cover, and then went back to read it from the middle where everything starts changing. This book is well written, witty, funny, and it makes you understand what the characters are feeling/going through. All in all I think it's is one of the most amazing books ever!!!!! I have to admit that I wanted a better ending, or a sequel but sadly there is nothing after the last line that reads: "Maybe it's time to meet him in the proper light." *sob* *sniffle*Anyway I highly recommended this book to you guys!

Happy 14th Birthday Cameo!!!!!!!!!

2009-02-04T08:11:00.005-06:00

Today is my friend Cameo's birthday!!!! Usually I would just go to her Blog and wish her a happy birthday there, but the accursed Parental Blocks has ban me from it for: "Objectionable content that can only be approved by the administrator". Pshaw, is what I say to that!

"Happy, happy birthday Cameo dear happy days will come to you all year"......*huff* Okay you get the point. I'm going to sing the whole song to you at Mutual tonight. Mwahahah!!!!! (You might want to bring ear-protection gear) :)

Come HERE to wish Cameo a happy, happy bday.

I Look Like A Cross Between A Redneck And An Emo Boy!!!!!!!

2009-02-02T16:09:00.006-06:00

Good news: I got a haircut!!!!

Bad news: The lady did a horrible job. She wouldn't do what I asked her to do and she gave me a flippy mullet. A MULLET?!!! Yes, my friends a mullet!!!

To make matters worse I have naturally wavy hair so it flips in my eyes like an emo, and then the long hair in the back makes.....a flippy mullet!!! *shudder* My mom took me back and another lady "fixed" the mess as best as she could but sadly she couldn't do much, and now I have ugly hair. As if this experience couldn't get any worse every time I try to be positive about having a horrible haircut somebody in the house will come up to me and say,"Whoa, your hair looks awful. That lady did a really bad job. *snicker*" Ha! I'll see how you mocking people act after my beautiful brown locks return, and I once again have wonderful hair to swing in your faces. *sob*

I'm going to post a picture of my mullet hair later so I can get advice of what to do from you guys!!!!!! That or I'll wear hats until the day it all grows back.......
*Mom please don't perm me like your mom did when this happened to you!!!!*

What Was THAT All About?!

2009-01-29T08:37:00.003-06:00

There is a ten year old boy at Kung-Fu that I call "Little Kevin". Little Kevin fascinates me because he reminds me of me (and a bit like an old lady) for some of these reasons: He gets hurt all the time, he is dorky, he never misses an opportunity to complain, and he talks a whole lot.

So now that you know a little bit about him I will proceed to tell you what happened on Monday......

I was standing in line and getting ready to do a jump kick when Little Kevin came to my side and whispered in my ear,"That boy over there (a four year old) asked me if I was going to KISS you." "What?!! Wait...What?!!" I exclaimed in surprise. I didn't know exactly what to do or say to him so I pushed him away and said,"Kevin pay attention!!! And stop talking!!!" He did what I told him to do, but then he came and talked to me after class......

Is That Sarcasm That I Detect In Your Voice Young Man?!!!!

2009-01-27T16:04:00.012-06:00

Boy 1: Oh, well I take theater.

Boy 2 (In a confused tone): What's theater?

Boy 1 (Sarcastically): It's where they give you lines, and you make it real. *eye roll*

Boy 2: Oh.......*blush* Yeah......

Please Don't Judge Me! I'm Only Like This On Days That The Internet Doesn't Work!!

2009-01-24T09:34:00.005-06:00

The first time I had ever heard the term,"I work Graveyards" was at my friend Whitney's Blog. When I saw that I thought,"Whitney? Really? I never thought that she would ever work around dead people. That doesn't really sound like something she would do....." I proceeded to think about what exactly you would do if you worked Graveyards and these are the things I came up with: Security guard (to prevent grave robbers from um..robbing), grave digger, and grave robber (No, Whitney I didn't think you were any of these things. They were just ideas). Sadly before I could Wiki it the Internet stopped working. So then I figured that Whitney was a Security guard at the grave yard (that didn't seem likely, but it had a better possibility then the rest), and that was the end of it.

I didn't think about it again until I was with my mom and I heard someone else use that term on the radio. I finally decided to ask my mom what exactly "Working Graveyards" means. As it turns out it means working Midnight to whatever hour you get off........*disgruntled sigh*

*Yes, you may laugh at me now. :(*

Me and my friend Martin K. Chillaxing On His Bday!!!!

2009-01-19T18:39:00.004-06:00

First of all: I'm pointing at Martin K. I am not holding hands with him!!!! Sorry, that's what it looked like to me......Anyway. Just look at how happy I am to be with him, I mean he's a famous historical figure and stuff!!!!! (Sadly, Martin K. can not change his facial expressions so he can't show the excitement he's feeling inside to have me take a picture with him!)

Martin K. and I go wwwaaaayyy back, to about a year ago......That's a long time right?

Are You As Pretty As A Goat?

2009-01-05T09:00:00.005-06:00

Yesterday as we were piling in the truck to go to church I was exiled to the cab of the truck, that of course meant that I had to share booty-space with the "little people". In the short time that I was back there I found out that they all enjoy playing telephone and having weird messages. Mel-Smells weird message was directed to me, her sweet voice whispered into my ear and said,"Sunbum is as pretty as a goat!!!!" "What?!! I don't have a beard like they do!!!" I exclaimed in surprise. Later she told me that she thought goats were very cute, and pretty. So maybe it was a compliment........

Hmmm....Now That I Think About It That Was Pretty Mean!

2009-01-02T17:01:00.006-06:00

Buster: Man, that kid is butt ugly!

Me: Buster, stop looking at yourself in the mirror!!!

Buster: *gasp* Oh, Sunbum that was really mean.....

Later after the rest of us had recovered from laughing a pouty Buster stated sullenly to me,"You know I was talking about the boy on the cover of that book on the counter......Wait a minute....You're Blogging this aren't you?!!!" I laughed lightheartedly and proceeded to open Blogger, so I could Blog about it......

The Lawn-Guys Are Coming!!! The Lawn Guys Are Coming!!!! Help!

2008-12-29T08:40:00.005-06:00

My fear of Lawn-Guys started last Summer, I will tell the story in third-person because I have to practice writing it.....

It all started when a young unsuspecting thirteen year old was outside practicing Kung-Fu. The poor girl had been trying to teach her younger sister (unsuccessfully) the form and she was sweaty, tired, and irritable. When her little sister left she practiced on her own. The while doing a jump kick a truckload of Lawn-Guys passed and they honked and yelled at her. The girl was mortified!

She decided to finish practicing because never in a million and one years did she think that they would come around again. This girl was completely foolish; because they did come back, and they were even louder the next time!

Completely ticked at these strangers she threw down her Bo-staff in frustration because she knew she couldn't do anything about their childish attitudes, and she stomped angrily into her house. As she glared out the window she mumbled to her embarrassed self,"*grumble* Stinking Lawn-Guys! I can't believe they did that!! I wear sweatpants even though it is 100 degrees outside so I won't show leg, and shirts that are two sizes too big for me so I won't be immodest! I'm not like some of the girls in my class that wear their slinky bathing suits to wash their dad's cars, so they can flirt with boys passing by!! *another grumble* And then she saw them again.......The Lawn-Guys!

They passed another three times after that looking hopeful, but much to their disappointment there was a boy in the girls' place, and he was doing cart-wheels and showing his whole flabby abdomen to them. She wished she could have seen their faces then, suckers!!!!

Now every time she sees Lawn-Guys she runs away, and hangs her head down so they won't notice her. It's working, because it has never happened again!

Until next time:

The End.....

I Have Magic Writing Hands!!!!

2008-12-23T17:51:00.004-06:00

Merry Christmas everybody!!!

This afternoon I took on the chore of listening to the piled up messages on my moms phone. It's really is a grueling job, but I enjoy doing it. Anyway back to what happened......

So first I went through the usual boring messages, and then I heard the formal serious voice in the receiver say,"Um...I would like to tell you that your daughter Monkey has won our Colossal Stocking!!!" I screamed at Monkey who was playing on the computer,"You won, you won the Ginormous Colossal Stocking!!!!" I was jumping up and down while saying all of that, while Monkey's face was completely passive and she shrugged her shoulders and said,"So...." I was shocked, because when I won last year I was so excited I practically died of happiness. (check here for pictures of my Christmas booty.)

When I was finished being happy for her unimpressed self; she told me that the only slip she put in was the one I filled out for her!! What can I say I have the magic touch!....

Dorky Injuries Report: Thistles

2008-12-16T09:17:00.002-06:00

Last night my mom took us on a walk around our neighborhood. I love walking, and it makes it even more fun when we bring Reagan the flower sniffing dog. I made it a little over half way before I had to stop to tie my untied shoe lace that kept tripping me. I decided to stop at a stop sign. As I was kneeling I felt something poking my knees badly. Finally I was able to get up to look at my knees and I cried,"No!!! I can't believe out of this whole yard I found the spot with all the thistles!!!! Ow. Ow. *pain dance* Great now I have them on my knees and my fingers.......This is just perfect." The pain dance I did was pretty amusing to my siblings. Well I'm glad that somebody got a laugh out of my pain.......

Please!!!! Tell me it's over!!!!!

2008-12-10T08:45:00.002-06:00

This is what the real Breakfast Bowl looks like!
A couple months ago my mom and I tried the new Jack In The Box breakfast bowl; courtesy of my grandmother. I was pretty hungry that morning so I asked my mom for the big bowl, instead my wise mother said,"You've never had it before, how are you sure you'll like it?" She of course won, and we both got a small.

It smelled so good and I was almost tempted to open it right then and there but I waited like the good girl I am. Finally we stopped and I opened the container holding what I thought was breakfast deliciousness; as I opened it I found that the ad on TV was a total scam! The bowl of "food" on my lap looked like really bad dog food that even my dog who eats practically everything wouldn't eat.

"I'm sure it'll taste fine.", I told myself as I took a small bite of it. I was wrong, so wrong I tell you. It was absolutely horrid! I couldn't believe that somebody would actually sell that stuff. I forced down the rest of it, and after we finished my mom and I discussed how awful it was while holding our bellies and rocking back and forth in pain. I was very glad that my mom got small bowls, I think I would have died if I had to eat a large!

*Don't eat it I tell you!!!! You will regret it! Save yourselves from the horror that is Jack In Box's Breakfast Bowls!!!!*

Brilliant.......Just Brilliant....

2008-12-08T10:30:00.005-06:00

This girl is very nice, but she dumbs herself down to impress the boys. (I'm not quite sure why) So this post is not against her, and I'm not trying to be mean.

Yesterday one of the rude boys in my class asked the girl mentioned above,"Hey, did you know that I have a pet ferret?"

"A ferret!” she exclaimed in a valley girl voice that I usually only hear in movies . "Isn't that like a half bird thing?"

All the rude boys laughed so hard that they fell of their rear ends.

"What?", cried the girl in a fake pitiful (valley girl) voice. "I know that ferrets are half bird, half rat animals!"

I was so shocked that somebody would actually say something like that! The shock was so great that I couldn't move from the doorway where I was attempting to make my escape from those people. (I use the term people lightly, they're more like savages.)

Her absolutely brilliant response to what the rude boys said next was,"*giggle* Well, like how was I supposed to know? Don't like hate me for it! *giggle*"

I think I vomited in my mouth a little when I heard that. Thankfully before I could hear anymore of this embarrassing episode; the shock wore off and I was finally able to run as fast I could to escape those people.........

*We learned about mammals in first grade where were you?*

Whoa! Look At All The Pretty Psychedelic Colors......

2008-12-02T00:02:00.001-06:00

A few minutes ago after I finished working on the awfulness called Algebra. I felt like my head was going to implode from all the knowledge that I had just attained from studying, so I decided to rest my head on the inflated balloon that rested on the shelf right next to me. It felt really good......until I moved a little bit, and then BANG!!!!!

For about five minutes after my accident I was seeing psychedelic colors flying at me from all around the room, and seeing my sister in double!

After I recovered from that I realized that my balloon was not free, but that he was beimg held captive to the Evil Decorated Cement Block Party Balloon Weight Thingy! (I knew my balloon wasn't evil enough to lead me unto major head injuries!)

*Lesson learned from this: Do not use a balloon for a pillow, because it may be working (under captivity) for the Evil Decorated Cement Block Party Balloon Weight Thingy....That is all.*

Twlight Movie Review

2008-11-26T08:26:00.001-06:00

Monday afternoon I had the pleasure of watching the highly anticipated movie Twilight! I thought the movie was okay, the music was fantabulous though, and the people were extremely good looking. My mom and I laughed a lot throughout the movies running time. I almost passed out from lack of breathing because I was laughing so hard when Edward kisses Bella's forehead. (It looked like a lip-suction cup on her forehead.) And again at the very end when Bella wants Edward to bite her and Bella's eyes are rolling all over the place in anticipation!!!!! That was the greatest!!!

I liked the movie don't get me wrong, but it had so much potential to be better. They put way too many "wink, wink" moments for me to take it too seriously.

I loved Alice, Jasper, Emmett, and of course Edward! They are my favorite vampires!!! Now tell me what you thought of the movie...........
This scene was totally awesome!!

His......Hair......Is.....Perfect!!!!

The best pictures of Robert Pattinson:

*Oh, sorry just drooling over Emmett's bowtie and vest, don't mind me.....*
