Hurray!!

Well, i tried out for the lead in a musical and...I GOT IT!!!!
We are doing the musical Once Apon A Mattress, which is pretty much the story of the Princess and the Pea. And guess what?...I AM THE PRINCESS! I sing 3 songs BY MYSELF!!!!
I am very excited for the play. But my Music teacher is doing something called Double Parts, which means that this other girl ALSO got the Princess, so I am the princess one night, and she is the princess the other night.
Oh well. My friends don't like the idea, but at least i get to be her once!!!!
Just thought i would give you an update. Oh, also, tomorrow we are going to the GREAT WOLF LODGE!!!! YAY! I am very excited!!!

Jokes

This is a dumb people joke.

2 Dumb people got into a car and drove to Disney World. On there way, they came to a fork in the road, ya know, left or right. There was a sign that said, "Disney World Left" so the 2 people turned around and went home!

Update: I am on the 4th Twilight book! It's very good so far. They HAVE been a little innappropriete (mostly the 3rd and 4th ones) but still it is very good. I will be sad when I am done!

Assuming things

I am assuming some things about the Inauguration. Well, not the event itself, but the people who attended it.

I assume that George Bush is wiping his forehead, going "Whew! I'm free! And now, I am set with money and (still) fame for life!"

I assume (actually I know this) that there is a big signifigance to Barack Obama choosing Abraham Lincolns Bible to be sworn on. The signifigance is that Abraham freed the slaves, and now I know that he is Barack Obamas favorite president.

The Inauguration of Barack Obama

Today, like my mom said, will be a big part of history. It IS a big part of history. An African American becoming the President of the United States.His speech was amazing, and I know everyone will remember this for a long time, and pass it on. I am very happy for this day. It was really exciting, watching everything on TV. Think about what Obamas kids are thinking. Their dad, the President of the United States. It is weird now to say President Barack Obama. Usually, I would say Obama, but now I guess I will say something other. President. An African American. African Americans, who used to have to sit seperately from white people on buses, who were used as slaves, can now be Presidents. Well, as long as they were born here. I am very proud of my country now. Very very proud. This would be Impossible years ago. but now, it is possible. Hooray for President Barack Obama!!!
(sorry if this is a weird post, it seems sort of weird to me...)

Old songs

Okay, I love old songs. Well, the ones on my playlist aren't ALL old (i'm Yours and Bella's Lullaby) but I just added the theme song to Happy Days, Pink Panther, and I dream of Genie. I also have Blue Moon, which is an old song. I just love these songs!
Of course, i also have Michael Jackson songs, but I just love old songs. They are really sweet.

Sweet

I don't know why I put that as my title. But I don't think I have told any of you except Ashlee and Mckenna but...I AM READING TWILIGHT!!! it is very good. I finished the first one about a week ago, and now am on chapter 9 of the second one, New Moon. It's really good so far, but I won't say anything about them incase any of you are planning on reading them!!
Just wanted to give you an update!!

A new style...

Look what my mom did for me! She used this difuser thing and made my hair curly!
I really like it, what about you?







I was hoping I could show my friends, but it will have to wait since I have a SNOW DAY!

Yuck

That is how I feel right now. Yuck. Every morning, as I get up at 6:30 am, I think to myself ( and no, i don't think What A Wonderful World) what is fun about school? NOTHING that is what! Let's list the things about school:
-You get up early
-You lug a heavy backpack to and from school
-you sit in long boring classes
(and if your middle school is attached to the highschool like mine and you share hallways with them, then you will understand this...) -Getting trampled by seniors who carelessly push us aside when they walk by.
-Having to deal with 2 boys who constantly complain about how I take up so much space getting into my locker, and are always in there way ( and even though I know this is not what they mean, i always say the same thing: "I am NOT fat!")
-having to deal with constant swear words shooting all over the school at other kids (and yes, even teachers:Earns em a good 2 day in school suspension)
-and getting yelled at by a teacher even though you weren't talking but the class was

Now I am sorry if you get this from your kids, and I'm sure most of my cousins feel this way too, and i'm sorry if i seem like I'm complaining (which i pretty much am) it's just i really do not like school. I think all this came pouring out because we have Exams this week. Yuck.

I miss it...

Okay so you all know how much fun we had at the lodge.
Well, I miss it so much! I feel like I cannot stand it any longer.
I miss my cousins, the games, the laughter, even some of the few arguments that come with having 24 people all in 1 lodge together. That's what I miss the most, I think. I miss the craziness, the business, and everything else that comes with a big family. I don't know why, but I just love it when everything is crazy, but relaxed. I think it is like that because we are so used to having each other around. It's not weird for us at all. The lodge is alot smaller than the Holidome, but even though it may be small, we don't notice it. some people might think we are crowded. But we are not. I know I keep writing this, and it may seem weird, but I just love it. I love craziness. I love rowdiness. I love business. And I love our family.

Our Family:


And Uncle Bill and Aunt Lianns Family:


I don't have pictures of this, but all the kids except Michael, and uncle mark and aunt mary's kids participated in the Olympics.Micah Mariah and Mckenna were the Judges of who did the best on each game. The games were the Looge race, where we sled down a hill. The Iditorod, the Log Throw, the Snow Angels, The Ice Dance, the Marathon, and this thing where you try to hit a hockey puck so it hit a chair. We had tons of fun. That night, Mckenna (the one who thought of doing the olympics) gave out ribbons, and all the kids stood on the fireplace or these benches. Once everyone had ribbons or medals, we all sang the star spangled banner. Everyone sang really loud, and it felt like we were almost at the olympics. It was really cool. You can probably imagine how much everyone would want to stay. I'm really going to miss the lodge, but I know one thing: I can't wait until next year!
