This guys is obviously on stilts

Here are some of the long-awaited pictures of the state fair I went to for my birthday! There were lots of amazing animals, including a little bunny rabbit named DOOM. Haha!

More Homework than I Expected

So this year I have a whole lot more homework than I expected. Mostly in LA/SS, but we have a lot of Science, and I have Geometry every night as well. Oh well. Helps me learn time management!! I also have a bit of French, but almost no Band, 'cept for practicing trombone.

Oh, there's this Make-A-Wish fundraiser at Cold Stone today, and Mom's letting me go BEFORE dinner!! (I thought only grandmas did that!) Yipee!!! I had Cold Stone last month for my friend's birthday, too. We also have been getting these little one-serving ice cream containers that are really cute. I get Ben & Jerry's usually (Cherry Garcia is my favorite) and Mom gets Starbucks Java Chip. It is sooooooo good.

:-P

Busy, Busy, Busy....

SO sorry I haven't been posting a lot lately. I have a lot more homework than I thought I would have, so I haven't been posting........like at all. Sorry.

Anyway. We had our first soccer game on Saturday, and we won 5-1. I couldn't play goalie though, because of my thumb. But I played defense and my coach said I had a really good game.

Well, I have to go do homework right now. BYE!

ps: I hope my grandpa's eye surgery went well! Love you!

The Presents Coming to Use

I got many great presents for my birthday last week. Among them were:

• From Hannah: An Obama shirt, a bag of black licorice (yummy!), a photo of me and her, a photo album of camping, an Irish button, and a CD of the amazing video she made!
• From relatives: 2 $25 iTunes cards, money
• From other friends: 3 earrings, 5 mini-hand-sanitizers, Julia Child's book, Julia Child's cookbook "Mastering the Art of French Cooking," a cute set of tablespoons, and "Catching Fire"
• From Mom and Dad: A "Stay Fresh" shirt, and the Mary Poppins 45th Anniversary Edition DVD

I've gotten much use out of all of them, I've watched Mary Poppins about 3 times over, I've started Catching Fire, I've bought a bunch of songs on iTunes, I've put the money in my wallet, I've worn 2 of the 3 earrings, I've worn the Obama shirt and the Stay Fresh shirt! They are all AWESOME!!!

Thanks so much everyone!!

Happy Birthday to Me!!

Today is my birthday!!! Even though school started, we didn't have to be there til 11:25, so my friends and my mom and my friend's mom (those super-sneaks, them) they brought all my friends to the Family Pancake House and surprised me!!
