Hey everyone!
So today is Mardi Gras! And I had my very first....oh gosh it's going to be fun to spell this...Paczki? I don't think that's right and my computer says its wrong but it doesn't think that I'm talking about that amazing desert. Of course the chocolate ones taste exactly like a giant boston creme from dunkin donuts but still. Also I have yet another thing. Why on earth does the water at my school taste like pennies?? I know that sounds really weird but if you go to my school you will understand that it does actually taste like pennies. Well, I'm not sure if its exactly pennies but just...metal. You know what metal tasting water is like right? Well, if you don't you know the smell of metal? Imagine the smell of that metal as a taste and then that being the taste of your water. It's so weird and everyone of the people that I've talked to about it agree. How does that even happen though? Maybe that's like a specific kind of well water. At my home we have tap water, but my friend LeAnn has well water. So it's like I can't drink water at her house because I'm so use to the tap water at mine. I don't usually have the school water. I mean in the summer I have to because its during colorguard and metal tasting water is better than no water right? Of course I'm right! Water is apart of your life! It's what...75% of your body? Something like that. Alright alright maybe that's not exactly right but I've never been a fan of the human body stuff. That for me is the creepiest part of Health/Science classes. Which is funny because I wish to become a Marine Biologist. But that's not human bodies those are fishies! Speaking of fishies you know that inflatable shark that I spoke about in a blog a while ago? Sure you do just scroll down!.............Alright now that you're back from reading that blog post....you probably didn't read it did you. Zut! Tu est penible! No translations needed. ANYWAYS that inflatable shark is finally set up! It's hiding in my closet right now but I've been flying it around for days. I have an 18 foot ceiling in my living room so it's very fun to fly it around in there haha. And it's looks exactly like it does in the picture that I put in the blog post that you probably never read when I told you to read it. Alright so this somehow all ties together with metal water. Because today is Mardi Gras! And luckily I had french class today so we had a little somewhat party with a king cake which has a very weird story. Apparently when you buy a Mardi Gras King cake it comes with this doll. And it's a naked baby that you are supposed to stuff in the cake after its baked, and then put frosting over the top. Whoever has the piece of cake with the baby has to host the next Mardi Gras party! It's really weird I know and we didn't hide the baby in the cake. My french teacher just threw it aside. But because of that king cake my mouth was really dry and so I got a drink of water and it tasted like pennies! And that's the wonderfully weird life of Tinkerbell.

Ramble Ramble!
Hey everyone!
So all of you should probably know by now that I am on the Open winter guard for LC. If you don't, read older blogs! But anyways because I'm on the open guard there are a lot more performances to worry about. This saturday is going to be one of the scariest so far. This weekend is Indy regional in which case we sleep in a hotel just like we did in color guard. But because of this Indy regional, our coach, Mr. B, is getting incredibly nervous. He gets super duper nervous about these winter guard competitions especially for the open guard. Meaning that he is going to yell at us a whole bunch. Confession: I hate being yelled at. It's a horrible feeling even when it's not you getting yelled at in the first place. You just get that feeling in your stomach and it just doesn't feel very good at all. It almost feels like guilt when your not even guilty. So that's my major worry this week, Mr. B screaming at us every practice and then being super stressed out about this competition. What stresses me out the most is the fact that its prelims and then finals. It depends on how good you are whether or not you make finals which is obvious and I shouldn't be explaining that. Anyways I'm really nervous because some people don't have the emotional connections the same way that others do. In my case this winter guard show is about my dad. He passed away from colon cancer before I even got into the 2nd grade and I barely got to know him. All I remember now is silly things like Disney world or piggy back rides or silly nicknames. For other people this show is about a breakup or a boyfriend cheating on you and breaking your heart. I've never actually had that feeling. I'd rather not have that feeling for a very long time. I don't really understand dating in middle school or high school. Mainly because there's so much other drama going on that you don't need anymore about whether your bf's tie matches the color of your dress or that they hugged some other girl or stupid things like that. I don't understand any of that kind of stuff. I guess that makes me a ton different than any other girl. I mean I'd rather be different than just like everybody else. Everyone wants to be "normal" but what exactly is the definition of normal. NO ONE IS NORMAL! Especially in high school. Not everyone is on the guard, not everyone is on the dance team, not everyone gets straight A's, not everyone gets straight D's. Everybody is different. And if you think that everyone being the same is cool, then you are thoroughly disturbed. Well, back to the fun stuff. I seemed to get a little serious there which rarely happens haha. ANYWAYS I finally got my loft bed installed and it's amazing! The only problem is I'm having trouble getting use to not sitting straight up in the morning haha. I've already done that a few times where I've hit my head on the ceiling. My mom and I started decorating my room too. We got a new rug, new curtains, new pillows and bed sheets. It's so much better than it was before! Before everything was bright blue and it had to be that way because otherwise things would clash! So now my room's walls are neutral color and then I have warm colors so it doesn't feel so cold. It's a lot more relaxing I have to admit. I will probably get a lot more homework done without the distraction of the bright blue walls. Well, I believe this is yet another edition to my series called "Ramble Ramble!" see you guys later!

Waking up isn't fun
Hey everyone!
So today was the hardest day to wake up this morning. I have no idea why because it's a friday and you'd think it would be easier because it would be like "Hey, one more day of this and then you get to sleep in a little" What I mean by sleep in a little is I have guard practice in the morning tomorrow. From 9 to 5. Well, I guess that's more sleep that I would usually get waking up at 5:45 every school morning. Ugh I really don't want to get ready for school or even go to school today. But of course I have to because of this weird thing about my school. At my school we have white days and blue days and today is a white day. Which doesn't make much a difference as to why I wouldn't wish to go to school. But the reason that I HAVE to go to school is because the last time that I missed a day 2 classes went from A's to C+'s. It's amazing how that all works right? Well, another reason is that I haven't exactly been sick this year at all. The only reason that I have missed school days it because of colorguard. I'll be missing a lot of days when WGI comes up. WGI is like our big big championships where we go to Dayton, Ohio. I just hope that nothing too crazy happens and I end up failing my classes. That would be HORRIBLE!
