Hey everyone. I'm sleepy. I just woke up. The other night I had a horrible nightmare! I didn't make honar band :( So I asked Mr. Testa if I can bring the bells home over the weekend to practice and he said yes so I have to practice today. 3 more weeks until the due date. See, what we do is we practice some scales and a solo they assign us and then we tape ourselves then we send in the tape and they judge them and pick who is going to be in the band.

Yesterday Brittany, Cheyenne, Nilou and I went ice skating. My right blade felt weird so Cheyenne and I went back to get another pair. Then I decided to try hockey skates. The dude said they're harder to skate with and I said, "I don't mind." So me and Cheyenne both got hockey skates. We went out on the ice and it felt so weird! On hockey skates, the ends of the blades are all smooth and stuff when the ends of the figure skates' blades are sort of, I don't know how to explain this, pointy and rectangular? Here is a picture of a figure skate. Here is a picture of a hockey skate. Anyway so me and Cheyenne got excited about it and we're going to learn how to play hockey in February. It's going to be so much fun. Brittany was all, "You know you two will probably be the only girls there."

"Yeah, I know. That's the best part." :P

Mason got the flu :( He was supposed to go ice skating with us but he couldn't because he got the flu. That butthole. Lol Ooh, a couple days ago in Language Arts, we had to do a freewrite. It's where for 15 minutes, you write about anything (non-fiction) without worrying about grammar, punctuation, spelling etc and just writing without really thinking about it and without stopping. The first time we did that, I wrote about how pissed I was at my piano teacher the night before. Lol. The second time I wrote about how I wore Joe's sweater (hey! It's really warm) that day and then I didn't know what to write about anymore so I started writing about the kid in front of me and what Jasmine wrote in her first freewrite. Those are so fun. One day when I have nothing to blog about, I'm going to do a freewrite in my blog. Thank you commenters!

Thanks for wishing me good luck. Most of you commented after I took the test. Guess what I got? An A! Whoo! Go me! 122/130 I have an A- in that class now. I'm so happy. Alot of my friends got 100%s though. We took a quiz in science today. Don't know why you guys would want to know that.

In case some of you didn't notice, I put up a new layout! Thats my best friend Joe. Do you think it looks like it was airbrushed or does it look like a vector? I don't know what I was doing really. I'm satisfied with what I got. I made the image the way I wanted it, then I didn't know how to put it into a layout. So I layed out my content and such like I did in the first layout I made for Musical Duckies. How many of you remember Musical Duckies?

Ask Me! I just added the "Waks ask and answer" script to my website so go ask me questions! Lol, random plug. There's nothing to blog about.

Hey has anyone noticed I've been blogging every 5 days? Funny. Thanks for those lovely comments. They made me feel better. This Friday, we have a constitution test. It's where, for one month, we learn about the Constitution of the United States of America, and at the end of the month, we take a big test on it. If we don't pass, we dont pass the class basically. Anyway, it's this Friday. I'm not really nervous though, because our teacher just gave us this pretest on everything we've learnt so far and I got a 52/54. Pretty good, eh? I'm really proud of myself. I've decided that no matter what, I AM going to get straight A's this trimester. If it means staying up until 4 oclock studying, so be it. The problem is, I can't commit myself to that! Heh.

Now onto band, I'm practicing my scales and the solo I'm supposed to play for the tryouts. Mr. Testa says I'm doing pretty good. Sometime in November we have to turn in the tryout tapes and they judge us and stuff. So I have a while to perfect everything. Still I'm nervous. Joe is also trying out for honar band as a percussionist. I'm so sure that he's going to make it. He's such an awesome drummer.

There really isn't much to say. November and December are going to be busy months. 2 concerts to perform in, honar band stuff, crap feed, I might go to Georgia and Italy. Fun stuff eh? Oh guess what? I'm getting a puppy this summer! Most likely a papillon. Go to Google Image Search and type in papillon dogs. Tell me what you think of them.

I'm so stressed out it's not even funny. My goal this year is to get straight A's and maybe possibly get bumped up into highschool. My plan backfired though. I'm still getting A's and B's and I'm so pissed. I've decided, starting from when I finish bloggin, I'm going to study my brains out for the rest of the year. This is going to be a very hard goal to achieve for me :S It's hard for me to focus, I think I have A.D.D. or something. My mom says it's because I'm on the computer too much or something. I'm not on as much any more...

I decided to try out for honar band. Honar band is where kids from all over my state (well the central part) try out for the band. (Trumpets, trombones, percussionists, strings etc) and my band teacher thinks I should try out as Mallet Specialist. So I'm going to. I got the music I have to learn a couple months ago and I've been practicing on the bells. A few days ago he said I should take the bells home on Friday and practice with them over the weekend. And so I did. They are so freaking heavy! Lol I left them downstairs, I got to bring them upstairs and start practicing. Speaking of band...

I GOT 4TH CHAIR OUT OF 7!! I'M SO HAPPY!! See, I totally suck at the drums because no one really taught me how to play them and stuff, so I had to teach myself. Then Mr. Testa tested all of us to see which chair we deserve and I was really nervous and I kept asking him "Why can't you just give me 7th chair?" Anyway, on Monday (I think) I checked the board to see what chair I got and I got 4th!! Whoooo! Then I walked up to him and asked him "Mr. Testa, answer me honestly, did you give me 4th chair because you felt bad for me?" He said "No, I don't work that way, I gave it to you because you earnt it" -squeal- lol. Now I got to go get ready to go ice skating. See ya!

Hee hee I've been keeping a secret from you guys... 3 weeks ago I found out Cheyenne moved back. (Cheyenne is my best friend who moved to Washington a couple months ago) Anyway, she told me 3 weeks ago she's coming back so I started planning a party, and I invited all of our close friends. I didn't tell them she was going to be there, I just said I have to tell them something very important and that there's going to be a huge suprise. So most of them were able to go except for Caroline. Jasmine had to come a few hours early so we watched fear factor for a while then about a half an hour before Cheyenne was supposed to arrive, we went upstairs and started dancing (Dance Dance Revolution). So, me and my cousin kept looking out the window to see if she was there while Jasmine was dancing. When cheyenne came, we didn't hear the doorbell ring, my mom brought her upstairs. She opened the door and smiled at Jasmine and walked over to my bed (Which was right behind the pad and Jasmine) Jasmine just glanced at Cheyenne then went back to dancing them she did a double take and stared at Cheyenne and we were all waiting for it to register in her mind that she was in the same room as Cheyenne. Then she screamed and hugged Cheyenne and her face was all red and she was crying. I got it all on tape :)

Personally, I think her reaction to Cheyenne being there was the best. When Tia got there, Cheyenne opened the door and was all "hi!" and Tias all "Hi Sh-" then quietly said "Cheyenne..." and I was videotaping her so she just stared into the camera and it looked like she was about to cry. Then everyone (Jasmine my mom and Cheyenne) started hugging and Tia was just staring at me lol. Brittany just squealed "Cheyenne" and hugged her and had this really confused look on her face and she imediatly (I'm too lazy to look it up) called her mom to tell her Cheyenne's back. Erin was all "Uh.... Cheyenne!" and Jayme just yelled her name. It was pretty interesting lol. We had a great time last night. We stayed up untli 5 in the morning so I'm like falling asleep right now lol

Before I go, I just wanted to tell everyone... today is me and Mason's one year aniversery!

I'm so happy :) I have alot of commenters now :) My life must be interesting *gasp*

Today, we finished watching the Sound of Music in band. We've been watching it for the past few days. Has anyone ever seen it? Last time I saw it was when I was little and I always hated it because I never understood the story. But now I get it, I love that movie :) Mrs. Testa (Mr. Testa's wife) was supervising us while Mr. Testa was testing some kids. Anyway, she said it was a true story and there is a book Maria Vontrap wrote about her life. Interesting eh? I want to read that book.

You know that song that goes "How do you solve a problem like Maria?" in the Sound of Music? Well in band, me and Joe started teasing Mariah and we were singing "How do you solve a problem like Mariah?" It was so funny :P Then in the locker room, I had that song stuck in my head so I started running around singing the song, substituting the name "Maria" with "Crystal, Lisa, Risa, Jayme, Richelle" etc etc. It was funny :P (By the way, those names are the names of my friends.)

I got to go to my piano lesson so I'll blog more soon. Bye.

I've been sick for the past couple of days. I've been dieing. No not literally but I felt like dieing. I'm feeling better now but I'm still sick. Yesterday I didn't go to school. Why? Because I was sick, smartone. lol. At 2:30 my dad had promised me we would go to Toys R Us to get DDR (Dance Dance revolution) and we did. I ripped everything open when we got home and I danced for 3 hours :) After the first couple of songs, I was sweating like a pig. I swear, I'm going to loose 20 pounds by doing this. (No I'm not overweight)

Now, Wednesday was my brothers 8th birthday. We went to Scandia and played miniature golf. It was so fun. Then me and my cousin went inside into the arcade and played games. Then I went to the DDR machiene and I sucked :P I'm doing better now.

Has anyone seen Mean Girls? I saw it last night. I love that movie heh. I loathe Lindsay Lohan though....

It's like 7 in the morning. I want to go take a shower but I can't because my cousin is in there. I'm going to play DDR and get all sweaty THEN take a shower THEN go to school :D Bye! *Note to self: Blog more often*
