Go here and watch the whole thing. Isn't that the coolest thing ever? I went online and found the sheet music for several mario songs. I'm trying to learn them by the time I go to Atlanta for christmas. The first song is really hard, I only learnt the first line so far and I can't really play it well. Heh. I have no idea what to get my cousins for christmas. They have everything they want. Any suggestions? They're both boys, one is 12, the other is, erm 9 or 10, I'm not sure. The 12 year old is John and the 9/10 year old is his little brother.
Warning! Rant below!
See where it says "Mood: Angry"? It says that because I am angry. Want to know why I'm angry? My mom always promises me she'll take me places but she never does. For example, for the past 3 weeks, she promised me she would take me and my cousin and brother to see the Incredibles. She never did. She said she would today at 4. At 3, I went to her and asked her if we're still going and she said, "No because it's too late." I replied with, "You said we could go at 4!! How could that be late if you said that you would take us at 4?!" She said, "You had to remind me. I forgot. Now it's too late." "I was going to remind you earlier but you were taking a shower!" I'm not angry because I didn't get to see the movie today, I'm mad because she promised me she would take me but never did. I don't care if I never see the movie. Oh and for the past month, she's promised me that she would take me to this pet center place where they have a bunch of puppies. But every Sunday (thats the day shes off and promises me she'll take me places) something happens and I end up staying at home and not going. I'm jynxed I tell ya. I hate this!
Thank you for sitting through my rant. :P I'm going to answer a question about my last blog entry. Miranda asked, "How was your [thanksgiving] dinner?" My dinner was crazy. The actually dinner was good, I didn't eat much though. But me and my cousin were running around screaming and stuff. It was so much fun. My mom went crazy along with us and we (cousin and me) were making up songs and my mom was dancing to them. Hah! It was so much fun. Got a question about this blog entry? When you comment, ask the question. I'm going to go. Ta-ta! (:P!)

Hah, from 3 comments I went to 9 comments. I now have a stalker! I'm just joking, Zach. I have no idea who you are. He visits my site all the time and comments so I would like to say Hi to Zach. -waves- Before I go on about my life, I would like to plug a few things. One) Allegro Vivo Reviews Two) The Sims Console Games Fanlisting Three) The Phasmophobia Phobialisting. A Phobialisting is just like a fanlisting except people afraid of a certain something join the PL. Phasmophobia means "Fear of Ghosts" so if you are afraid of ghosts, join my Phasmophobia Phobialisting. The official Phobialisting headquarters is http://www.thephobialistings.org. Pretty good idea, don't you think? I'm going to be opening up a name listing for the name "Tara". Coming soon will also be the "Falling in Love" and "Changes" phobialistings. And hopefully an "Ouija Board" fanlisting. I have to wait for TFL to reply.
Ok, plugs are done. For the past week we've been off school. It's only Thursday and I miss my friends terribly :S I had this weird dream the other night and I wrote it down. Care to read about it? Before I quote what I wrote down, I'm going to give you some background information. Joe is my best friend. He used to sit with us all the time during lunch but last week he decided to hang out in Noddings' classroom to play Dungeons and Dragons during lunch instead of sitting with us. Now, on with the dream.
"I dont' remember this dream very well. I only remember parts of it. Here's one part. Everyone went into the cafeteria and Joe went and sat near where he sits during SSR with a bunch of people I don't know. Well most of them were his friends that O know but the rest weren't. I sat on the other side of the cafeteria watching Joe the whole time because I wanted him to sit with me. After the lunch bell rang, everyone went to band. I was a few yards a head of Joe and I was hoping that he would run up and walk with me but he didn't. And I was sad.
"The next part I remember is that a bunch of kids were walking down a hallway but instead of walls, it had bushes. Joe was behind me but I didn't know. He walked up to me and grabbed my sides and said, 'Hi' and then walked beside me."
Weird dream, eh? I told him about it the next morning and he laughed. Then he told me some good news, he's going to sit with us during lunch! Whoo! Lol.
I'm sure by the time you're reading this, Thanksgiving will be over, so how was your thanksgiving? We haven't even started dinner yet and its 7PM! We always eat late. I'm going to go. Before I go, I would like to announce that... THE TERMINAL CAME OUT ON TUESDAY! WHoooo! I bought it and I'm so happy! Ooh I just came up with this good idea, when you comment on my blog, you can ask a random question about the blog entry or whatever and I'll answer one question in my next entry. :P Ok, enough of this. Goodbye and remember, eat your fruits and vegtables!

Lol. Yesterday's post wasn't even considered a blog entry. That sucked. I'm going to write a better entry. My concert's over with! Let me start with this morning.
So Cheyenne was with me right? Me, her and my dad went to the fairgrounds at 9. We got there and we did sound checks and stuff. Raychel and me and Cheyenne decided to get ice cream. It was all sunny and windy and cold. The ice cream was so good though! Yum! So we ate ice cream and we eventually started getting cold. This group of guys was playing at 10 so we watched them, got cold, then stood in the sun. Then their songs were so "danceable" that I started dancing and I couldn't stop. Then I had a 5 second crush on the guy who played the accoustic. :P Ooh, before we got the ice cream, Mason came then his mom dragged him away and they just explored the festival while we ate ice cream. Then I went to the back to put my sweater and jacket on for the concert. Then we were all standing there and I started jumping up and down and moving my legs and stuff because I started shaking. I wasn't nervous though. I don't know why I was shaking. Then we got up and played our first song and blah. The concert went pretty well actually. Everyone said we were better than they expected. Thats what I think too. This guy connected all the organs to a cd recorder and he recorded our songs.It was pretty cool. I'm listening to it right now. (Radetsky march)
I looked so awesome before I changed my clothes though. I had a black shirt with a tiny bow on the top on with a red tie and this weird belt and a black beanie. I bought 10 insence thingys for $1 :) And I bought this awesome bracelet for $12! Click here to see it. It's so cool! We don't have school tomorrow. It feels weird, I don't know why. I really want to go to school. I miss my friends :( Oh well.
Zach! Who are you? Please email me. (tara@allegro-vivo.net)

Our concert is tomorrow. I'm really excited. Even though we suck :P. Cheyenne is going to spend the night tonight and then tomorrow she's going to the festival with me. It'll be loads of fun. Jasmine might go too. Let me call her. -calls- She wasn't home. I left a message. As soon as I finished my message, Mason called me from the bus. He had a competition today (band). I wanted to go but my mom said it was too far away -rolls eyes-
My organ isn't here. It looks weird in the family room. There's this big empty spot. Heh. I'll take a picture and post later. Speaking of pictures, I'm going to take alot tomorrow morning. This is so exciting! Our concert is in less than 24 hours! Whoo! This is how a concert normally goes for me. Before the concert, we're all waiting to get up there and play, right? Well I'm all cool and calm and thinking, "This is no big deal, just a concert." and I don't feel nervous at all. But as soon as I start playing the first song, I will start shaking. At the Bill Horn Organ Show in June, my leg was shaking so much I had to take it off the volume pedal :S The concert before that, the muscles on my face were twitching. Let's hope this one goes better :S

In case you are very slow, I put up a new layout last night! I like it alot. Lol I say that about every layout I put up don't I? Well the last one I had was awesome. Not the layout but the picture. I love what I did with the picture. How I put it into a layout is what I didn't like. Oh well. I think this one is cool. On the top left hand corner it says, "I saw something shiny and I'm not going to stop until I touch it." My friend Chelsea said that. Actually she wrote it in my planner. Hah.
The other day I was bored so I joined a bunch of fanlistings. And a couple hatelistings. Its hard for me to find hatelistings that I would join. Hee hee, I don't know why. Anyway, I joined this The sims Console Version Fanlisting. A few hours after being accepted, the owner sent all of us members emails saying she's going to close the fanlisting unless someone wants to adopt it. I emailed her back saying I want to adopt it and guess what? I own that fanlisting now! It's changing locations and it's going to be hosted at allegro-vivo.net.
This is my last weekend I can work with the bells for honar band because next week is the week I record myself playing the scales and solo and send in my tape. I'm nervous. Mr. Testa (my band teacher) figured out a way I could make some notes staccato. In other words, he found out a way I could make some notes short. It's hard to make notes staccato on the bells but he found out a way I could so if I do it when we record, it's going to impress the judges and I'm going to have a better chance of getting in.
Yesterday I went out with my mommy :) Lol. Yesterday, my mom was at work in the morning, my aunt and cousin went out, and my dad and brother went miniature golfing so I was home alone. :( Then my mom came home and she asked "Are you the only one home?" I said "Yes" then told her where everyone is and she said, "They just left you? No one asked you to go with them?" I said "No" Anyway my mom was done with work when she got home so she took me out. We went to Walmart to get my dad's Christmas gift and they didn't have it. Then I went to another store and got stuff to make my friends' gifts. Next weekend I have to go shopping for my family.
I blogged pretty well didn't I? Heh, I'm so proud of myself. Bye!

Oy, I'm not going to rant about this but Nick "rejoined" band. And he is so immature it's not even funny. My 8 year old brother is more mature than that 14 year old poop bucket!.
On a happier note, I'm going to Atlanta for Christmas and New Year to visit my family, including John. I'm so excited. Every year they have a party or two and they have so much fun and now I'm going to be there to witness the fun stuff lol. I have no idea what to get my cousins. Friends too. I already got/made Joe's and Mason's gifts. I got to get/make my friends' gifts and buy my cousins'. Lol. Oh my god! Guess what? I actually understood what we were supposed to do in science without asking my teacher! Praise me! That's just awesome ain't it? I'm so proud of myself lol. See, the thing is, our teacher teaches in a different way. He doesn't explain every single step like most teachers do, he makes us teach ourselves. He wants us to learn how to teach ourselves things and stuff. Thats a pretty good meathod of teaching though.
I want to start something new. I have no idea what though. I mean, music is a huge part of my life but I want to start something else too. Ooh, I know! Hockey. That's what I'm going to start. Tomorrow is Veterans day and I'm gonna go ice skating with Brittany and maybe Cheyenne tomorrow.
I hate it when I have nothing to blog about. I'm a really bad blogger. I have something to blog about but I don't want to. I'm sure you guys are tired of hearing stuff about my kk lessons. Oh well. Yesterday we had another 2 hour practice. We went through the whole program in the first hour. The second time we went through the program, I was half asleep. I went crazy actually. I was acting all...abnormal. Making weird noises, acting weird, laughing at the littlest things. When I went up to announce "All That Jazz", I said, "Our next piece comes from a popular show. The show is called "Chicago" and the shong ish cshalled "All That Jazz". Lol. And when I announce "Forever in Love" I'm supposed to say "We would like to dedicate our next piece to anyone who ever has been or always will be, 'Forever in Love' by Kenny G" But instead of saying "Kenny G" I said "Glenn miller" lol who was the band leader of the song "Little brown jug" Anyway, half way through the second time we went through the program, I started laughing and crying at the same time. And I nearly fell asleep during one of the songs. I don't know what was wrong with me...

Nick quit band! Nick quit band! Whooo! Go me! well I didn't get him to quit... but still! He quit! He says he quit because it was boring. Mr. Testa says "it wasn't working out". Either way, he still quit and I feel more needed in the percussion section... I don't know why. Heh today in band me and Joe were screwing around and we got in trouble. Mr. Testa was all pissed. Ahh, I haven't seen him this pissed since last year.
Bush won... I can't believe it. It's just unbelievable. I don't know why! I'm not really into politics so I don't really have a good reason to hate Bush. But there are two reasons why I didn't want him to be the president; he doesn't support gay marriges and he doesn't support abortions. Even though I think abortions are wrong, I still want them to be legal. It's the woman's body, not the government! She should decide whether or not she should get an abortion. I'm not going to get in depth about that right now.
I don't know what to blog about so I'm going to do a "Freetype". It's where I type for 5-10 minutes without really paying attention to what I'm typing and not paying attention to grammar, spelling, puncuation etc. So if there is an error, it doesn't mean I'm stupid.
Ready...
Set...
Go!
Today was a horrible day. Joe was all upset and everyone was bugging him and they were trying to figure out what was wrong and he just ignored all of us. Eventually I found out what was wrong. I'm not going to share with the world though. It's none of your'e business. I just lost my train of thought. Ok its none of their business.... oy! oh ok, so anyway I found out, asked him if i was right and he said yes. Man I'm so "In tune" with his thought.s I should get a medal! Whooo. This morning when I woke up I wanted to know who was the president so badly. I was half awake sorta so I sawthis bulliten at the end of my bed saying "Bush 500 something eletoral votes" and "Kerry 200 something electoral votes" Later when I was fully awake I realized that that cant be because there are only a total of 538 elecotal votes. Today in langauge arts we had to do a freewrite. But this time we had to write about a family member. So i wrote about how I never met my grandpa and how my gramma died when I was in 3rd grade. Then i ran out of things to write about so I wrote abotu how my really close friends are like my brothers and sisters. Ok I don't know what to write about... I have like 5 minutes left. Ok, the phone is on my desk, crap I donno what I'm typing hmmm mrs mccarthy talks about how her dog is stupid. Well int he beggining of the school year every day she would talk about how her dog is stupid (she loves her dog though) but now she has more pointless stuff to talk about. Lol I love how random she is. Like while were taking a test, she'll start talking about how this lady did something at the grocery store or something. Dunno what to write about my brain just went dead. I hate it when I loose my train of thought, its so annoying. It's like a train running off its tracks. This is gonna be one large paragraph. I should make a page full of my freetypes. This is fun. Only 2 mre minutes. i love algebra. Next year in highschool I have to take geometyr y which sucks. I want to do algebra. Mason says his dad says in your sophmnore year you're going to take algebra two. His dad works at the highschool as an english teacher for sophmores and seniors. I want to be his TA, I don't know why.
Freetype done. I'm going to read it. Wow that was weird. Ok, well I'm going to go. Remember, eat fruits and veggies every day and when you "have to go", don't hold it.
