21 Days

I once read that if you did something for 21 days straight, it became a habit. Part of your own routine. A part of you naturally.

21 days.

That isn't so hard, right? Less than a month. Only a few weeks.

I am going to take the TWENTY-ONE DAY CHALLENGE!

For the next 21 days I am going to stretch every single day!

I know it is a small little thing, but I am not that flexible :(

I always hear people complaining about how their back hurts when they bend down and how they aren't as flexible as they once were and how their lack if flexibility has now come back to bite 'em!

I want to prevent that pain and discomfort for myself in the far far future! I will keep a countdown and up-date on the SIDE BAR UNDER MY PROFILE.

I hope that by the end of September I will have a habit of stretching!

I encourage you to try and find a challenge for yourself!

P.S. I've been having issues with my profile picture. You see, it won't let me change it. Every time I click "Remove" it quickly flashes for a second then closes the link. Help?

Would You Rather?

We are going to play a little game......

Called......

Dream Land

Last night, I experienced something rather odd. Like nothing I've ever experienced before!

It all started when I drifted off to Dream Land....

It started with one dream, and then I remember thinking, "Hmm.. I think I'll start another dream while this one loads." Now, when I dream, ANYTHING is possible.... Then I began thinking of another thought until it developed into a dream. I repeated this four or fives times until I had a few dreams "loaded". I was able to think of one of them, and return right to that dream without anything having happened without me.

This probably is making any sense for you. But if it is.. DOUBLE HAPPY POINTS! :D

Let met try to break this down:

Pretend my dreams were like books. I would be reading four books at one time, reading a chapter here and a chapter there out of whichever book I wanted to read. And no matter which book I read, nothing happened while I was gone.

Understand?

I had the POWER in my dreams!!!!!

Maybe I am just not the best at explaining..... :(


Aloha Aloha on a Thursday evening.

Beach Trip

Today my family went to the beach. We never go to the beach as a family! I'm lucky to go once a year! My mom and I went into the water and chilled ourselves to the bone, BUT kept a smile on our face! :D The last time she went into the water with me like that was in Hawaii two years ago.... She is weird like that. But I love her! <3

I attempted the art of boogie boarding, failing epically(hmm... is this a word?) . I had a few successful rounds, and then came the painful one:

I was positioned into place(or so I thought) and waited for the wave to ease on over. The current was strong(hooray for the element of water!), and I felt weak in its grasp. But I awaited for my fate... unknowing what would become of me.

The wave crashed and caught me right when I exhaled. Meaning, when it forced me under, I was out of breath. My eyes were open for a moment(until I closed them), my mouth filled with salt water(ouchie for my throat), and my nose burned with the ocean water that flooded in. Talk about uncomfortable!

It all happened within a split moment, but it felt as if I were under for a lifetime.

Other than that "slight" accident, I had a blast! Collecting seashells, splashing in the water, watching the dolphins jump across the ocean and put on a show!!!!!!!!!!!, and stroll along the powder soft sand. Hmm...

But I am back in reality.

It was nice to be in paradise, though.

If only for a couple hours!

Do you have any interesting beach stories to share?

ellliiiieee :D

One Hour

We still have one more hour before our family friends get here.

Everything is clean. We all look decent. Our lunch of BBQ is prepared. All we had to do was slice the watermelon. I heard my mom start yelling, "Oh no! The watermelon is YELLOW!!"

I was like, "Psh... There is no such thing as a YELLOW watermelon."

Boy was I wrong.

It looked like a pineapple!

Holy Jumping Johasaphat!!, right?!?!!

Was this normal!?!?!?!

Maybe I am just naive to the world of watermelons...

Or maybe we have a magical pinewaterapplemelon!!!!

Plates

I was once with a friend at this place where you can decorate your own pottery. She made a plate for herself and had it personalized to her liking.

She moved not too long after that to a home only an hour away from us, but we hardly ever saw her. We came to visit her about two weeks ago(2 wks tomorrow), and they prepared a nice dinner with us.

The time with the pottery had been at least two or three years by now.

But when she took out the special plate she made and started eating off of it, she caught my obvious stare. She then explained that she had been eating off of our plate every single day since she made it!

And I believed her, too. She is not one to lie, and she said it straight to my face. Eye to eye. It's either she is telling the truth, or her lying skills have improved. I like to think it is the first one. If you have a different opinion, please keep it to yourself(mahalo :D). I like to think what I think.

I was impressed, I'll tell you that.

And in her room, there is a picture of us together. In my room? Not a trace of her...

Why am I telling you this today?

Because I found my piece of pottery I made, collecting dust, in the back of a cabinet, not touched since that day at the shop.

And, well, I felt bad. Guilty.

I do not like this feeling. So, I thought I would make up for it by dedicating this post to her.

Just so I don't end this post all touchy-feely,

I would like to let everyone know that I have added a horoscope widget to the very bottom of this page. So.. scroll down.... click on your sign....and see your daily horoscope!

yay!!

Have a howdy, howdy, weekend!!

Funny Pics

I was thinking that maybe I would make you laugh.




or giggle.




or chuckle.




or smile.




or slightly move the ends of your lips up.




or just sit there at the computer being all bamboozled on why in the world I would think that you would think that this is entertainment.









But I like it.






How appropriate, right?



Oh dear..



Aww! Mommy's helpers!



duh!!!
Tee hee hee.



Now... feel free to say, "awww!!" as you take a look at these:



When was the last time you saw a licking lizard?!?

okay, okay. So you have probably seen this bunches of times and I have probably posted it several times, but I cannot get over it!!!



Howdy howdy on a Thursday afternoon.



<3> :)

Mahalo

In case you didn't know... Mahalo means, "thank you" in Hawaiian.

Just thought I'd let you know.

Anyways, thanks everybody for playing my little game! I love love loved the results! I was so excited to see how motivated people were! And I was mentioned in two blogs!!!
MWAH HA HA HA!!!! OMG MOMENTS!!! :P

My life has been not very packed. I see friends, go places, and do stuff. But, in general, I never go "sky-diving". So . . . I make my own fun!!!!


Party in my head!

Dance to no music!

Spread the love!

Things that really get me pumped:
-boogie-ing down the hallway
-putting a long skirt on and spinning so hard that it flows and I feel like a ballerina
-making pictures out of the grooves in the ceiling.
-turning the volume off of t.v. and trying to come up with my own lines every time someone speaks.
-pretend I'm a model and walk down the hallway all cool-like.
-galloping and making horsey noises.

I hope I grow old, but never grow up. BIG difference.


Ha. I love doing wacky things. But I'm not "insane", per say. I am aware of people around me...

What do you like to do?



oh, yeah. happy hump day. WOOT!

Howdy howdy on a Wednesday morning!

<33 ellie :)

Howdy howdy on a Tuesday morning!

<3 ellie :)

Happy Monday

The week has begun again...

:(

:)

?

I just wanted to thank everyone who bothered to say Hi, even if they weren't familiar with cameras(if lost, check previous post). Thanks to anyone who gave a little of input. But I think I have decided on the Nikon. Not for sure, though. My mom has a nice Canon, so if I am ever in a Canon mood, I'll just ask to borrow hers. Nikon seems like the right level for me. I'll let you know what happens.


Okay. We have been having ant issues. Really bad ant issues. I find them in my bathroom, shower, sink,kitchen, KEYBOARD(!), everywhere! We put out these very affective ant traps, which kept them away for a while. But new colonies just keep on a comin' in! It first began once summer started. Never had a problem before that. Is it just the season for ants and bugs?

Anyone have anything that might help?

Once again, if not, just say howdy. ;)

<3,

Ellie :)

P.S. i HATE ants,

P.P.S. just so you know.

Camera Help?

Here is the deal. I am saving up to buy my own digital camera. You could call it... a casual camera. I would use it for family, friends, pictures, nature, vacations, etc. That kind of thing, you know?

I am not looking for some professional camera with big and bulky attachments but a slim, stylish one with quality that would suit my needs. I am stuck between Nikon and Canon. Help? Please?

I am looking at these two models:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8531911&type=product&id=1186007992197

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8741542&type=product&id=1202648529969

Both have amazing user reviews, but the Nikon just costs a lot less for what appears to be great quality! But then the Canon might have more features?!?

Help?

If you aren't that big in the camera department.. just say hi!

Saddest Love Note

I received this through e-mail, and I found it so sad that I started tearing up to the point my vision was blurry.

But then maybe, it was just me.

So read it and weep..

"The Saddest Love Note"
One night a guy & a girl were driving home from the movies.
The boy sensed there was something wrong because of the painful silence they shared between them that night.
The girl then asked the boy to pull over because she wanted to talk.
She told him that her feelings had changed & that it was time to move on.
A silent tear slid down his cheek as he slowly reached into his pocket & passed her a folded note.
At that moment, a drunk driver was speeding down that very same street.
He swerved right into the drivers seat, killing the boy.
Miraculously, the girl survived.
Remembering the note, she pulled it out & read it.



<3



'Without your love, I would die.'


Now admit it... you must have gotten at least a little twang of emotion?!?!

If not... shame...

shame.
shame.
shame.

But you are still awesome. :)

Woot

Woot! Happy Hump Day!

*ahem


Have A Great Evening.


Ellie :)

Yay! Birdie! Yay!

Last night, our cockatiel was acting odd, unusual, not to mention funky. Just... no himself. We began to think something might be seriously wrong. We never took to much attention of it, but simply let him do his little thing. But it kind of felt like he was sad about something. Kind of mopey?

And then, today....



We had an earthquake!!!

Not good. I did not even feel it, but my cell phone got disconnected(Mom couldn't get a hold of me and FREAKED out), t.v. got one of those flash warning, and it was on every news channel and radio station and internet homepage! But, I still did not feel it. So, no one near my town was harmed.. that I know of.

Was this a coincidence? Or was my birdie speaking to me!?!?! Because, now... he is back to NORMAL!

I think I am just a bit paranoid about things of that sort, but I just like to believe that maybe he was trying to signal off something.

Good evening.

Ellie :)

MySpace

Okay. To put things really bluntly, I am AGAINST myspace!! Anyone else out there with me?!?!
I know so many people with a myspace account. The majority of my friends have one! But does that mean I stop liking them as a person? No! I would say that one rule about not hating the player but hating the game does indeed apply very nicely here. That basically translates into hating myspace and not your friends.

Hey! I have no issue with you if you have a myspace. If you have an account, than you have an account. I will respect you for who you here, despite the fact you have a myspace.

Some people snap back at me saying things like, "But you have a blog that anyone can see!! On myspace, you can choose to have a private profile." So? I can choose to modify who views my blog, too!! And on myspace, most people share pictures of themselves and pretty much every little bit of information! They think that only those who know them can get a hold of it. Ever heard of hackers? And people have connections and resources. Someone who is your myspace friend can show off your profile to someone who you would prefer not see your myspace!

I admit I have been tempted a couple of times to get a myspace, but I have remained strong! Never will you see me signing up for a lousy myspace account(let the record show that I still have nothing against a person who does have a myspace. Hopefully, that will never change, too) in order to fit in!!

"And lead me not to temptation!!"

"I will survive!!"

"Just say no!"

"Live above the influence!"


Think about it..

How many times have you heard on the news about different abductions and "female violations" and suicides, and all that sort of thing? A lot, right? Chances are, it is most likely linked to myspace over blogger! When was the last time you saw a flash report on someone being kidnapped through blogger!!!!?????!?!?!?

I am not saying that it can't possibly happen, I am just trying to make a point that I feel much safer on blogger.



JUST SAY NO..... TO MYSPACE!!!!


Have a great day :)

Yay!

I am so excited! I got tagged for the very first time by Amy(http://amahoney-amy.blogspot.com/). I have never been tagged before! After a year and one month of blogging, it has finally been done! And I am so grateful. If you aren't already reading her blog, do it! Now! After reading this post!

Here are the special-de-decial-di rules!!!

1. Link to the person who tagged you.

2. Post the rules on your blog.

3. Write 6 random things about yourself.

4. Tag six people at the end of the post and link to them(can someone explain to me how you do that thing where you just click on their name and then it takes you to their link? You would think that i know. But I don't.)

5. Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

6. Let the tagger know when your post is up.

Okay. Please please participate if I have tagged you!!! Even if you do not normally do this!!

Here are some weird, random things about myself.

1. I don't know if any of my friends have noticed this, but I really like to scratch my head when I am listening to someone, lost in a daydream, or just plain bored. I remember a few times where I was just scratching my scalp with my nails so hard that I started bleeding!! I know this is really gross, but I had bloody fingertips!!!!

2. I like to pick up things with my feet and toes... if I can. Maybe a pencil, napkin, piece of trash, dirty clothes, or whatever. If I am too tired(or lazy) to bend down, I just use my feet as if they were hands.

3. I cannot say the word, "pumpernickel" without wanting to crack up! I don't know why! I have just thought that it was a pretty funny word! You try it!! pumpernickel. PumPerNickEl. PUMPERNICKEL! No matter how I type it, it is still funny!!!

4. I occasionally feel bad about clicking on the mouse because I have this weird thought that I might hurt the button on the computer screen. I have just recently starting thinking about this. As weird as this is, I still feel this way!

5. I love that feeling when you take your hand and press it against your body, and it is all warm and soothing! Just rest your hand on your leg or stomach! Warm and sizzly, right!?!?? I LOVE that!!

6. When I am in a public bathroom, I cannot breathe through my nose. I try to cup my hands on my face as if my nose were cold, and then I breathe slowly through my mouth. In. Out. Inhale. Exhale. Phew. Only if it is "icky". If it is fairly clean, I normally just try to ignore it. But most public bathrooms are not "luxurious".

Ha! Here are my tagged people!!

Happy Wednesday :)

As you all know(or at least SHOULD know), today is Hump Day.
Ha.


So... Happy Hump Day!

But, I come to you with another topic I must discuss:

the dentist!!!!
(duhn.. duhn... duhn...)

I hope you got the point that I was trying to make a dramatic effect there. :P

A filling fell out of the back of my mouth maybe two or three weeks ago. I have heard that this normally hurts and causes you much pain, but I have felt absolutely nothing. Really. I didn't even notice as it came out. I was talking and something sort of floated out to my lip. But enough grossing you out.

Hopefully the dentist will know exactly what to do without making such a big deal about it. I am also going just because I need a regular cleaning.

I do no trust me dentist.

I apologize for putting that so bluntly, but I really don't. Sharp object in my mouth? No!! Poked and prodded by some stranger? No!! I do not like this. I try to put on my "happy face" and smile a lot, but on the inside I am ready at any moment to attack and run.

My dad was watching this show where a dentist was working with an half-conscience woman. I cannot remember what was going on, but he was just drilling and everything even though she was just barely asleep. Then, he started holding and fondling her!! For no apparent reason! What a violation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :((( He was caught on camera(hoorah!!!).

I'm not saying that I believe all dentists are mean. I even know a friend whose father is a dentist , and he is a good person. All I am saying is to just be careful. Out there. In that big world. That we call home.

Have a good morning, great noon, fabulous afternoon, marvelous evening, and an ever so delightful night! Then, when you wake up, do it all over again!

Update

So, we have been down to one laptop in the house. The one conveniently placed in my room. I must let my mom pay the bills. Let my dad check his sports and work on his cross word puzzles. Try and squeeze time for myself on there every once in a while.

We checked out 3 places yesterday, but no luck. What is that saying? Close, but no cigar? Well, it is something like that. Whatever it means....

We had e-machines, but we are going to switch over to something else. Not too expensive(like Mac, although I'd love one). Something that isn't complicated, but is durable and will last a long time. Maybe Compact or Dell. Anybody heard anything good?

Computer

Well, it finally happened. Our main computer crashed. The computer with EVERYTHING on it. Our bank accounts, bills, family photos, and EVERYTHING. We knew it was coming, but we didn't know so soon. Unfortunately, nothing was saved on a back-up disk. So.. we pretty much lost everything. No we all have to share on laptop in my room. I have to extra careful now not to mess things up since it WAS my own personal computer. Oh, well. I guess we have to learn to give up and sacrifice for others. Anyone out there have any comforting words to say?

New Phone

I got a new cell phone on Wednesday. Hooray! Yahoo!

Have a great Friday and an ever GREATER weekend!

Happy Tuesday!

Hi everybody! Have a happy Tuesday!! Enjoy some of these random and hilarious quotes! Why do I love quotes? Because once you said them, you can't take them back!


"Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life."
- Brooke Shields, during an interview to become spokesperson for a federal anti-smoking campaign.

"It is wonderful to be here in the great state of Chicago"
- Dan Quayle, former U.S. Vice-President


"I can't really remember the names of the clubs that we went to."
- Shaquille O'Neal, basketball player, on whether he had visited the Parthenon during his visit to Greece

Now, here is a brain teaser to exercise your mind! DO NOT SCROLL DOWN FOR THE ANSWER UNTIL YOU AT LEAST HAVE A GUESS!

Little Johnny buys 10 trees at a local nursery. How does he plant these 10 trees in 5 rows with 4 in each row?















.................
.






..............














.............










you better have a guess!!!












....
..








. Answer
Draw a 5 pointed star. Plant one tree at each point and one tree where the sides intersect.

Did this STUMP you?? Ha, stump.... Ha.


Anyways, I did not really get it, but maybe I am being oblivious to an obvious answer. If anyone fully understands this, please attempt to explain it to me. :)

All of these fun facts and the brain teaser came from www.amusingfacts.com/

Quirky Quirks

I got the idea to post about my personal quirks from Denise(check her out under my blog list). I hope she doesn't think I am copying her!

Anyway, here are a few things that are part of who I am.

- When people crack their knuckles in that way where they have to pull their fingers away from their hand. I used to crack my own knuckles, but in the way that you bend you finger and push down. I have sort of outgrown that habit, though.

-When nails scratch against a flat surface. Especially a chalk board! I get these shivers that pulse their way through me. I additionally hate it against a wall, cardboard, or Styrofoam. Probably other things, too, but I cannot think of anything else.

-When I am swimming, at the beach, in the shower, or doing any other activity that involves my face getting all wet, I sometimes rub my face all over for some reason. It looks a bit like a hamster rubbing its face. I used to do it all the time, but not as often anymore.

-When putting any chapstick/lipgloss on my lips, I start with the lower lip(left to right), then the left half of the upper lip, then the right half.

-When I am sleeping at night, I like to have one hand underneath the bottom of my pillow. I don't normally rest my head all the way in the pillow, either. Just at the base.

-I cannot stand putting my hair in one large braid. I cannot stand looking at anyone else putting their hair in one long braid.

-When girls wear bright eye shadow or eye liner that extends way past their eye, it appears to be most ridiculous. It makes them look quite like a raccoon!

-I do not like falling asleep directly facing either the window, the door, or the t.v.

-No matter how hot the weather it, I cannot fall asleep without covers basically covering my whole body. I just feel safe, I guess. I cannot really explain why.

-When people chew ice. Gosh! I HATE that. Please, if you are an ice chewer, don't do it in front of me!! Ditto on popsicles. And lollipops.

These were some little factoids about me that you might or might not have known about me before!

Hump Day!

Yay! Hooray! Today is Hump Day!!!!

I like to celebrate Hump Day every Wednesday. If I do not mention something on my blog, you can count on me doing some little party/fiesta in my head!

But, you might be new here! You might now know what Hump Day! Well, it is my job to spread the knowledge of it.

The week is like a hump! Sunday is at the bottom of one side, and Monday and Tuesday travel up the hump until Wednesday. Wednesday is at the top of the HUMP and in the middle of the day. Then you travel down the other side with Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Get it?


If not, try to picture it in your head!

Happy Hump Day!

Chuck Norris Jokes

I was totally clueless about Chuck Norris and all of his little jokes, until my friend Holly told me what they really were. So, she sent some to me and I looked some up myself, and I thought some of them were funny. So please enjoy the following Chuck Norris jokes. :)


-When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night he checks his closet for Chuck Norris.

-Chuck Norris can slam revolving doors.

-Chuck Norris doesn't read books. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants.

-Chuck Norris CAN believe it's not butter

-When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he isn’t lifting himself up, he’s pushing the Earth down.

-Chuck Norris' calendar goes straight from March 31st to April 2nd; no one fools Chuck Norris.

-Chuck Norris once won a game of Connect Four in 3 moves.

-Chuck Norris can delete the Recycling Bin.

-Chuck Norris sleeps with a night light. Not because Chuck Norris is afraid of the dark, but the dark is afraid of Chuck Norris

-When Chuck Norris enters a room, he doesn't turn the lights on, he turns the dark off.

Happy Fourth Of July!!!

Yay!! Go Independence Day! Hoorah for freedom!! I love America!!

I was totally American today:

Braids with red and white star hair clips with matching pig-tails, red, white; red, white and blue droop earrings; red star tank top under a white flag tank top; plaid mini skirt of all colors; and brown sandals on my feet. I also has blue eyeshadow on(not too bright, just a tint to avoid that whole raccoon look) and a blue American Brand jacket for during the fireworks when it got all chilly.

I so enjoyed today! I love the fourth of July! I hope you just as awesome of a day as I had!!

I love fireworks! This day is just so jolly to me! Those minutes of fireworks went by way too fast. And there was a fire on the hill that it was on! We were all cheering when the firetruck got to the top. It was amazing being around so many people celebrating the day of our freedom. We went to this big structure thing where people can come and sit and relax and watch the fireworks.

Happy Fourth of July!

Again!

As you can tell, I really like this day. I am so hyper I will never fall asleep!!

An Addiction

I am addicted to gum.

I just cannot seem to get enough of it! I hate going an entire day without gum. Only sugar free, of course. Not only is is healthier for you than those containing sugar, but the flavors last longer! Yes, they do!

I particularly enjoy Trident, Stride, and Orbit. Orbit probably being my favorite. My top flavor I am ALWAYS up for is spearmint. Original, anything berry and/or tropical.

I have never swallowed a piece of gum in my entire life. I am disgusted by it. I have heard that it slides down your throat easily, but the though of it makes me all shaky and uncomfortable. I hope to never run into a situation where I am either forced to swallow my gum, or it just happens accidentally.

I love gum!!!!!!

Scary Messages

I don't know if you ever go on to youtube and see these really scary messages. They are sometimes like,

"Pass this onto [insert number here] other people or else some [insert monster name here] will find you in your sleep."

You know what I'm talking about?

Youtube isn't the only easily accessible place to find these freaky threats. You can find them on your e-mails and cell phones on a text. Perhaps even other places that I don't know about yet.

I HATE these messages. They frighten me, and I am always careful not to read the entire thing before I get lured into their trap. Before I am forced to pass it on.

I am here to warn all of you not pass these on for the sake of mankind!!!!!!!

Maybe it is not that urgent, but it is one of those situations that are dismissed because there are larger issues in the world like world war vs. world peace. I do not like ignoring these little issues that still effect me all the time.

Any time you catch onto one of these messages, delete them, if possible. Treat them like dirty, yucky, spam(of course the computer bug, not the delicious meat).

Don't go looking for them, though! Avoid them all together. Just be careful if you happen to come across one.

The often start with :

-Once you get into this, you can't get out.

-Please read this entire thing through.

-Don't delete this!

-This is a story of a girl named Annabelle(or some other name).

Take caution in putting a stop to this horrible messages!!!




Whose with me!?!??

Kid Things That Never Get Old

There are many kid things that just never get old. You know?

Playgrounds, puppies, Disneyland, and stuff like that.

I still like Winnie the Pooh and I am not some toddler who takes three naps every day!

My mom has a friend who is over seventy, and she is IN LOVE with Mickey Mouse.

I remember seeing this on another blog, but I feel it needs to be repeated. Maybe not exact words, but the idea is the same.

"It would be nice if people grew old, but not grew up. "

But what does this mean?

Age is just a number, but it should not too deeply affect the fact that people like what people like!

"Baby" characters and "baby" places and "baby" things are not limited to those under ten!

Be proud to love what you love!!

Gas Prices!

What are gas prices like for you? For us, they are absolutely CRAZY! Everything has been going up in price. I remember the good old days when my dad would fill up his car for two dollars and whatever cents. Before then, it was in the three-dollar range. We all thought that we would never see it under three dollars again.

We were wrong. For a while, the prices were very reasonable, I remember. Now, though, they are horrible. It was quite a shocker when the numbers hit four dollars, but we would be grateful for that price now, compared to our average of $4.55. Not exactly, but aroundish there. It is predicted that gas will run about seven dollars in the next year or so. Ridiculous, right?

I don't know about you, but these gas prices are unbelievable.

Have a Happy Monday! :)

Wishbone

We had leftovers for dinner. Chicken was on the menu. I finished up, and then my Mom found a wishbone. Later on after cleaning up, we pulled the wishbone and did that game where you see who gets the bigger piece. Of course, I lost.

I was just wondering..

Is there a secret to winning the wish bone game?

I know it is just for fun, but still. I would like to know the secret, if there is one. :D

Summer

I'm so glad that the weather is heating up, although it might not be the official calendar date for summer. I can feel comfortable in short sleeves without shivering.

Fred

I'm not hyper anymore.

I think that I'll keep that post, anyways.

But...

I wanted to show you a hilarious video shown to me by my friends.

On youtube.

No, the video is on youtube, but my friends are not from youtube.

Just thought I would clarify.

It is called Fred Stalks Judy.

The "photo shoot time" is absolutely amazing.

You should check out his other vids.

Meet Gilbert

My friend and I dissected a frog today, which we named Gilbert. I know it was harder to name the frog, but we know person with that name.....who we do not particularly like. So... it was fitting.

I did not feel nauseous and I was totally okay with everything, but I felt bad for her innocent young life. It was a girl named Gilbert. Oh, well.

In honor of animals, enjoy this collage I made of cute animals, courtesy of Google Images. :D

I bet you know why I did this one.

Who says birds can't be friends with cats?

So adorable!

Mesmerizing, I couldn't resist including this.

If you had to, could you say no to this face?

. . .

. . . .

That's right, I didn't think!

Kung Fu Panda

I saw Kung Fu Panda with three of my other friends yesterday, and then my old neighbor invited me to see it again today. I was totally willing to watch it again. There is this one line in the movie, that i just love, said by the ever wise turtle master person:


Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why we call it the present.

So insightful and true.


:DEllie:D

There is this person whose name I won't mention. He broke my best friend's heart and totally crushed her. I have never seen her cry so much before.








I hope that he realizes that he just made a HUGE mistake.

I'm totally against dating at the moment, but he is seriously the scum you scrape off of a scum's mole.
