Possibly THE longest post yet

Hey everyone!
So today I gave all my teachers cookies. Yes, I might possibly be a goody-goody at times but hey, when you have a giant box of cookies and have no clue what half of them are what would you do? Eat them and find out? Because some of them didn't look tasty in my opinion. Mainly because I don't like the big frosted sugar cookies. Anyways in journalism we presented our court cases. Ours was Morse vs. Frederick. It went well in my opinion except our teacher didn't let us finish the presentation because we put a little quiz on the power point and she didn't want people to have answers for the test for later. While everyone else was presenting though my friend and I ate marshmallows....with chopsticks. A little silly but we planned it earlier in the week to have an "Asian" Christmas. We exchanged gifts too. I got 10 years of good luck through these tiny little origami stars and a origami flower while I wrote a poem about a panda named Tao and a panda peewee pillow pet. You should have seen my friend's reaction to the panda. It was amazing. She kept talking in that high pitched baby voice and was petting it and hugging it all class. That's what I love about Christmas. Giving all those cool gifts and seeing the people's reactions to them. It's the most amazing feeling but so hard to describe. I just hope that on Christmas day I'm on the other end. But of course I gave my mom a really good present. But I can't tell you because she reads my blog xD. So anyways back to the Asian Christmas. My friend and I are planning on watching some movies over the break in Chinese and eat Chinese food with chopsticks. So I thought I should practice a little. However, it's a whole lot easier to eat marshmallows than things like rice or noodles with chopsticks. I just hope that later I'll get the hang of it. There's one thing I'm really excited about though.......ITS FINALLY CHRISTMAS BREAK!! I've been counting down the days since the beginning of November! I've been waiting so long for this because I think its my favorite break with the beautiful snow outside and to relax inside with cozy slippers and pajamas and possibly hot chocolate. Something about it just seems nice you know? Like you just feel....cheerier. I absolutely hate the feeling you get around Halloween though. I just don't really like all those scary things popping up out of nowhere. Of course I say this while being home alone... I wonder what I'm going to do this Christmas Break. Maybe I should go ice skating. I did that a couple years back and it was fun. I've always wanted to learn all those crazy jumps and flips that ice skaters do, but I'm just not coordinated enough yet. Sorry if this is a little ramble ramble but I got to get all this out of my mind. Okay, so what should I get my dogs for Christmas? Last year I got them these little red and green bones that they ate over the course of the day but I want to do something special. Mainly because I feel like giving a lot more this year that usual. I always walk down the Target aisles and see those gigantic bones in the shape of a candy cane. Oh boy that would take them days to finish. Maybe even weeks! That's what I should get them. That way they don't complain about treats so much. It's like every time they do something good they want a treat. So I'll just tell them to go get their candy cane bone. I'm just worried about how much it will cost. Because if you saw them you'd know...they are HUGE. Not just little candy cane bones..no they are gigantic things that come in one big clear bag. I guess I'll have to go to Target soon to find out. I should probably stop writing now xD.

December 15...where's the snow?

Hey everyone!
So today was the last day of English, algebra, and geography for the rest of the year! Of course, tomorrow I'll be having the last biology, French, and journalism class. I'm so excited because its 10 days till Christmas and I'm getting a loft and a shark. Plus a few other things that I have absolutely no clue about. Anyways today I've been on and off sick. Coughing and runny rose especially. It's always when winter comes around that I get sick more and more. Except for the fact that there's been so snow except for about an inch and it already melted away! It's been 50 degrees and raining on the 15 of December. You have to love Indiana right? Well, I just wish that there will be a white Christmas because what's Christmas without a little snow? Of course there's also the southern states that rarely get snow but hey, they can have fake snow! I sure hope that this sickness goes away fast because tonight I'm going to a Christmas concert that my brother is playing in. That is, if the runny nose and coughing goes away. The only reason I wouldn't want to go with the coughing and sneezing is if there's a dead silence moment and my body suddenly decides to sneeze/cough. Talk about awkward.

Hear the JAWS music yet?

Hey everyone!
So I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about right now. Well, at least there's no guard today. Remember how I was so incredibly excited for making the open guard? I somewhat (key word: SOMEWHAT) take that back. Mainly because it's going to take over my life until the middle of April. Yup, from now until April I'm booked. There's no time for anything except for on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Sometimes we even have practices on Sundays! It's a bit crazy considering people's plans for their Christmas vacations and spring breaks. Considering we have practice on both breaks. At least it's not every day though. There are paint days on the 21st and 22nd and then we start practicing again on the 28th. So I'll sorta have a Christmas this year! My Christmas wish this year is slowly but surely coming true! :D A while back I planned to build a loft bed with my grandpa and paint my walls red and tan/gold. We just got the wood and tools for the loft yesterday so now we can finally get started! The paint however, is a different story. You see, my mom isn't the greatest at painting and my aunt is an English teacher at a local middle school so she's busy all the time. Of course there's always my grandma and other aunts that can help but everyone has a crazy schedule lately. I just hope that it's all done by Christmas or at least New Years Eve. That would be my wish. Oh! I forgot to mention what's under my Christmas tree right now....go ahead and guess. You'll never get it. Okay, the thing that is under my Christmas tree right now is......a shark. Yup, I got a shark for Christmas. No it's not a real shark ( i wish) but it looks like one and swims like one. Except, it doesn't swim in water, it swims in air. I got one of those Air Swimmers Sharks for Christmas! I'm so excited to set it up and start flying it around my living room. Mainly because it'll freak out my brothers haha.
 yup there he is! I can't wait till Christmas! 12 days left!

Ramble Ramble!

Hey everyone!
So I've be deprived of blogging for a week and I have sooo much to talk about so be ready for some rambling on and on about stuff.
Ok for starters we had our first guard practice and it was crazy. Our dance instructor taught us all these mad flips and now I'm incredibly sore and I have another practice tonight. My weekend is absoutely gone. I have practice tonight from 6 to 8:30 and tomorrow I have practice from 1 in the afternoon to 9 at night! that's 8 hours of guard! But wait there's more! In a couple weeks we will be doing 9 to 9 practices on saturdays! I'm freaking out because I'll never get any sleep on the weekends anymore which is what I usually do. Not only that my winter break is going to be full of guard stuff too! Three days after Christmas we start up again painting and practicing.
Next thing! It's 23 days till Christmas and 22 days till Christmas Eve! I'm so excited because I can't wait to see the smile on my mom's face when she see's what I got her. Of course I can't tell you what I got her because she sometimes reads this blog. Hint: She's going to LOVE it! I know she will, but I went to a special website that she has no clue about in order to confuse her. I'm being sneaky this year hehehe. Oh, and I have no idea if I'll be having a good Christmas for myself this year. Mainly because what I want can't be wrapped. I wish to redecorate my room and we've planned it for months and my grandpa and uncle are going to help me build a loft that has little stairs and my aunt is going to repaint my room red and gold!
Well, I thought I was going to be rambling on and on but I guess I'm not. Oh well, I'll think of other things to ramble about later!
Sincerely,
Tinkerbell
