Well, it still is if I post this before midnight, that is. Anyway, hello. This has been quite the long week for me, I must say. Wednesday night Mia's brother Alex picked up Sam and I and brought us to the bowling alley to surprise Mia for her birthday. Jimmy Mazz and Kim were there too, and we all went to Primavera afterward to celebrate. I gave Mia a pogo stick, not just from me but from all her peelz.
Last night Kara, Brianna, Mia and I all went out to 99 as a sort of joint-birthday party for Mia again and for myself. We ate some foodz, and went to the dollar store, and gamestop, and stop and shop, and iparty.. So much fun, I love that plaza. Mia bought me this snazzy jerkin' sweater at the dollar store, it has a moon and a falcon on it. We all went to my house afterward and chatted over ice cream cake and presents at my kitchen table, my dad was being so goofy.
And today I went to church for the first time in maybe a month, visited my abuelito who turns 94 tomorrow, and went out to dinner with my entire family including my grandma and Frank. We went to Primavera, I couldn't resist. And it made my dad happy, he's friends with the owners, they sponsor the radio station or something. We went back to my house for cake once more and laughed a lot over tea and cookies. My mom got me this really pretty gold bracelet with a glass blowed heart charm on it, so cute. And my grandma got me this awesome little crystal piece of a cake or cupcake or somethingerother. I can't really tell what it is, but it has little rubies all over it. Also, so cute. And I got maybe 120 dollars in total, counting cards from Canadian family and such.
I forgot to mention that Mia bought me a grey thermal shirt with buttons on it and a purple/teal/red/several other colors button up sweater from savers. Brianna made me this wicked awesome green/yellow/purple/teal bracelet which I am never taking off, ever. And Kara bought me a very multi-colored pull-over and a second sweater that looks a lot like a winter hat I bought at that liquidation sale downtown, once. Both from savers. I LOVE YOU GUYS, SEEING AS HOW I KNOW YOU'RE ALL READING THIS SINCE ALL WE TALKED ABOUT AT DINNER WAS HOW WE READ EACH OTHER'S BLOGS. Geeks. (And I wish Sam could have made it :[ )
Alright! Enough about that, I wanted to show you guys the Wild Thing's project Booooooom's been having for the past few days (weeks?) on their site. It's probably one of the best internet projects I've ever come across, I can't get enough. They basically asked whoever wanted to participate to make a fort however they pleased, to mail in a photo of said fort, and that a winner will be chosen for the best fort. Here are a few of my favorite photos:
Oh man. I'm far too sleepy to go on. And it seems it's already the 12th. Let the unbirthdays begin. Alrightie, I'm off to dreamland, hopefully not of THIS MAN ( thisman.org ), but of less disturbing things. Like ribbons and tropical fish.

Well I can't say that any of my dreams last night were realistic, just plain strange. I don't want to talk about it. Um, if you want to follow the Wild Thing's project or just check out any of the other photos Booooooom's posted so far you can click heeere (and skim through the similar posts as well):

Haha, I've been wanting to get around to posting this all day! But I was at Mia's for most of the afternoon, which was very fun by the way. We're working on a project for English class where we have to make Igbo tribal masks, and we papier mache'ed (..sp?) each other's faces, it was great. I'm skipping play practice yet again tomorrow to go over her house so we can finish this thing. I think it's going to turn out so stellar, even if our masks look a little creepy so far.
Aren't we beautiful? More tomorrow.
Hi, I just wanted to tell you that I've changed my halloween plans. Kara's mom ordered me a shark costume since their car is beach themed for the trunk or treat we're going to. So I'm psyched about that, the costume is radical to say the least. As for school I had planned on being the mad hatter, but I decided to switch and be pocahontas instead. I mean, I still want to be the mad hatter in the future, but you have to have just the right attire to pull that one off, and to actually be recognized as that character. The blazer I got doesn't really comply to that, and Jack told me he's been searching for the perfect top hat for ages and still hasn't found one. So, I figured pocahontas wouldn't be too difficult since I look like her anyway, and it gives me an excuse to purchase some mocs as well. I was pocahontas once as a kid, I cried because my mom made me wear makeup. I was just searching for the photographs, but I haven't found any yet. When I do I'll be sure to post them here. For now I figured I'd post this little girl's photo. How cute is she?
