Uhgg!!
I don't feel like writing anymore. This is one of the very few times that you'll see me being all 'down in the dumps'. I don't know why I feel this way. But I know I'll feel better tomorrow!

Allergies!
Today was a very hard working day. I cleaned out my whole room and then did some other things around the house. My dad went crazy with the vacuum, he was on a roll and no one was going to stop him. I must say though, the house looks great! But the only downside is that my allergies are killing me! AND, we did all of this work because we were having company over for dinner (notice the "were"). Well, after a little while, my dad talked to my mom on the phone and they decided that we should go out to eat. So, what it all came down to was, we whooped our butts all day cleaning, for our company to sit down for about a half hour and then spend the rest of the evening at La Volpe. Oh well, at least I don't have to work hard tomorrow I guess.
The company that came over was my uncle (my moms older brother) and his wife and their baby, Dylan, who is a little over a year old. He is so adorable, and everyone says that he acts just like I did at his age. Tomorrow, we're having my grandmother's older brother and his partner over. We're also having my aunt (moms older sister) and her husband and their three boys (my cousins who are 17, 12, and 9 years old). So all of my Nana's grandchildren and children will be in the same house at the same time. Pictures anyone?
Well, I just took some allergy medicine, and I am exhausted, so I think I'm going to stop typing in this blog before things get out of control!

Hello Again

This picture was taken Friday after school. Lindsay and I were waiting for Drivers Ed. to start and the projector was on so we traced our shadows. This photo only consists of mine and Lindsay's shadows. We were so proud of ourselves!

It's Me Again!
Wow I haven't written in a while. But I'm back and healthy, so no worries!
So I like this guy, but there's a problem, and I wasn't exactly sure how to approach this problem. The problem isn't very complicated, but in a way it could be. I also really have no say it either way this situation goes, good or bad. So I've decided to step aside and let the "problem" fix itself, and hope for the best. So far everything is going pretty good. (yay) I don't really have any complaints. (I know all of this sounds very confusing, I'm sorry for that.)
But yes, whenever I think about him, I can't help but smile, and whenever he talks to me, I get really happy, whenever I see him I can't keep myself from looking his way. I know I sound so pathetic!
For the past two weeks, I've been pretty much living without my parents. Each night I get the task of making dinner and, because my sisters don't like to exert energy afterwards, the dishes. Tonight, we had pasta with butter, salt, pepper, and real Parmesan cheese, yum!
Well, lately I've been going to bed really late, and now I think I'm going to start changing that pattern. I really should be getting more sleep. I don't know how I make it through the day. No, second thoughts, I don't know how Jess makes it through the day, with her odd sleeping pattern. =P
I've run out of thoughts, even though I started out with so many. I guess this will be a short one!
All I know is, I'm a really happy person right now, and hopefully soon, (if my wish at 11:11pm comes true =P ) I'll be even happier!
Au revoir!

Beginning of a Long Entry...
Six days until my birthday! And my parents decided to give me an early birthday present! Hmm, I wonder if I should make it a surprise to you guys and save it for my actual birthday. That sounds like a good idea. Anyway, today is Monday and it was quite eventful for one. Of course it started off like a normal Monday should, and then as the day unraveled, it became more and more amusing.
First period, in math, there was a quick power outage, and this caused complete silence in the entire school. I just remember looking down at my paper and seeing nothing. My reaction was, “Whoa.” and then when the lights came back on, I looked up and everyone in the room had wide eyes and were looking around like, “What the heck just happened!?” Although it caused confusion, I must say that it made me feel better because the AC went off with the power surge and made the room slightly warmer. (Our school doesn’t have heat circulating throughout the entire building, even though it’s a brand new building, so the just run the AC all day to keep the air flowing.)
Second period was just as amusing, surprisingly because we had a test and a sub. This class just so happens to be French, with a grand total of eight students on the roster. Well, the sub let us study for at least 10 minutes. Then when we got the test, we found out that it had nothing to do with the vocabulary that we were going over. So we were automatically doomed. But that didn't stop us... we just talked about the test to each other, DURING the test. And we all expected the sub to tell Mrs. Tafone about how we kind of but not really cheated, but instead she wrote, and I quote, "This is a class of perfect angels..." This made us all laugh. Gosh I love that class.
And speaking of French, we're learning a song and are going to sing it for the other french teacher at the end of the last week before winter vacation. It's called Hymne A L'Amitie by Celine Dion. And now our class is obsessed with it and we practice it at least two times a day.

Yes, I know, it's quite catchy.
I'll write more later when I have the engery!
