I’ve decided. I haven’t been on for ages. I might create a new blog in the near future, but for now, I’m probably going to shut it down. Might just keep it and go back to it…but I haven’t been on. For various reasons and not just being lazy, of course.
So. If I make a new one…I hope to get more hits, more views, etc. I doubt anyone checks this blog anymore any way. but if anyone does, any ides for a name for my new one–if I make a new one? I just hate deleting everything and deleting this one would just be…easier.
If I do a new one, I might think about using a different site, or program. 
I would be floating in paradise if I could get iweb for a blog. Its great formatting and easy. You pay for it any way, so I get full CSS control. But…really it isn’t CSS, which works because:
A) CSS on here isn’t worth it.
B) It saves a great deal of time.
So. If I could rack up the dough, that’d be a fabulous alternative. 
Well, i want to spread the news about Bella’s search to find a new blog/site and let the world see its creativity and awesomeness. I’m not entering this “campaign” as she calls it, I’m sponsoring a site/blog that I think could really really win this.
Now don’t be offended if I don’t pick you. I’m really going to try and find someone. An unknown (much like myself xD) and help them win this campaign, and then of course get on Bella’s blog. I want a good reason why i should pick you. Random is too general as of recently. OMG! WHAT ELSE IS THERE???? A lot. Trust me. So give me a good reason. Tell me why I should chose you.

I know I’ such a nerd. :3 But, the fact that I can be a “band buddy” makes me really happy. It means that I can help band students (who play the clarinet) during the week. And I’ll get paid $5 per hour. The fact that I’m getting money at all, is enough for me. xD I’m broke. I’m living off of target giftcards and a $25 itunes gift card. (Any song/artist suggestions would be loved)
So this subject of band buddies was not brought up to me, rather my sisters and friend. And, well I hope I’ll be able to do it soon because I’m in desperate need of some money. The benifits of band.
Plus: I’m seeing Eagle Eye today with Jamie. Can’t wait! <3

Its been the forth day of Middle School. Every thing’s gone pretty well, what with new lockers, a larger school and all. 
I’m pretty happy here. In sixth, we stayed at our elementary where we circulated through three classrooms. This is different.
I mean. With seven teachers, you don’t get to know them as well as those three at my elementary. You’ve got to run around a lot quicker, from hall to hall. My classes are literally all over the place, though I imagine everyone’s doing that besides me.
My general schedule:
per. 1 Jazz Band
per. 2 P.E
per. 3 Language Arts
per. 4 Social Studies
per. 5 Advisement
per. 6 Science
per. 7 Pre-Algebra
The locker situation went well. I was frustrated with my old locker, and guess what? They moved me. This was really because My advisement teacher’s door kept slamming into me. ^^ Any way, I’m now next to Ilan, somewhat by magic. I’m so happy! My old locker was next to people I hardly knew–just acquaintances, really. So its good to be next to someone I actually know. Plus: both he and I are on the bottom, but under no one! Its really much easier on the bottom…

Go see this video! Its so sweet! <3
Today was fun. We headed off to the Museum of Tolerance today:
We walked through one section that explained the holocaust. Its amazing how one man managed to create such havoc. One man, who was just released from prison. Adolf Hitler (for unknown reasons to me) was antisemitic. He convinced the rest of Germany to look down upon the Jews. It was completely inhumane, the things that they did to the Jews. Obviously, its a heavy topic. Its a hard subject to read, listen to, and an even harder one to experience…
Mary Natan (Her Polish name was Maniusia Rybowski.) was a survivor of the holocaust. At one point, she and her family were forced into the ghetto, with many other Jewish families. While there, they faced diseases and starvation. eventually, they were taken to the concentration camps. She was the only survivor of her family, and the youngest survivor of her city–the second largest in Poland. (I’m pretty sure.) It took her 63 years to put her experience down on paper. We had the opportunity of listening to her experiences. She told of the many obstacles she faced to get to America. Her book: Nightmares and Smiles,is an inspirational one. We got it today (as well as got it signed. ) and I’m in the process of reading it. Its great, and really makes you think.
I’m so grateful that Mrs.Natan was at the MOT today. ^^ It really left an impact on me. I’m so happy, it was probably the best thing for the last day of school. She experienced one of the most savage incidents on Earth–and lived to tell her tale. Maybe that was her fate: to bring her account of The Holocaust to America, and to the future generations. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, its that history has the habit of repeating itself. Its definitely good to know about what happened so many years ago. So, if you can’t make it to MOT on a Wednesday (That’s when she speaks about the Holocaust.), then buy her book! I gave you the link to Amazon.
SO. GO. BUY. IT.
Is Louie OK? First feather pulled. It came completley out, or it looks like it. I don’t know if he’s got irritated skin, if he’s upset or stressed.
That’s definitely not a good sign, and I don’t want it to become a habbit or something…
Everyone’s doing school shopping. We went today, after registration. We bee-lined for the galeria and bought tons of stuff.
I got one new pair of jeans, and two converse shoes. I’m still looking for some good running shoes in my small foot-size. Surprisingly: I’m a size five at women’s foot locker, and a size….this will surprise you! A size 2 1/2 in kids. TWO (and one half)!
The shoes:
My shoes from KF were picked out by my Mom. I love them! (Size 2 1/2, remember?) Pictures will come eventually….(the camera has about 200-400 pictures which will all have to load before I caan get to the 2-4 pics of my shoes.)
The other pair, were Jack something..I got them from Nordstrom’s. They’re so cute! (Will, post more, but its 12:30 and I’m going swimming tomorrow at 7)

Ooh, who likes sewing? I do–when I have a machine. o0 So, my Mom and I are working on a purse for me. We picked out some material (with Jello) at our local fabric store and we began today!
I’ll post pictures later…
Now, I decided to make a cute little handkerchief. Yay! For the inside of the purse you use this kind of padding called: batting. ^____^ I put that on the inside of my handjerchief and just sewed it up. Its really soft and splooshy! I lurvvv it! 8D
Mainly, its for when people start to tear up. I mean, I don’t want foreign snot on it, do I? No. Way. So, pictures shall come later as well. I’ll do it tomorrow, but its one AM right now.
So, on another subject entirely: guitar. Gosh, I’ve wanted to play guitar for ever. Literally since I was able to understand what it was (younger than first grade) At one point in time, my Aunt actually taught us (Me, Jello and Bella.) She’s a great guitarist. Any how, she moved to New York, and I get to ichat her. Yay! However, we still need to set up more lessons. Meanwhile: I’ve been looking up chords and can play a couple of songs, but only 2-3 all the way through. (This includes colors of the wind–Pocahontas.) Currently, my fingers are feeling better, but a while ago, they felt pretty dead. I don’t stop playing though, honestly–its fun! The only problem, I can’t read actual tabs or whatever they’re called. I can just read, say:
G A Bb
Blha, blah blah..
I knwo, I don’t come up with creative titles. Eh…I mean Soak City. Wow, great title…
Any way, yes. As you know, or should: I am one of those people who don’t get out often. I’ve never been to many theme parks. Yep. First time at Soak City. Rating: 4.3/5
Why: Read Below:
The good:
Well, the rides are definitely awesome. You’ve got that cone shaped one that spins you in your little four person or two person raft. You’ve also got the huge water slides that spin you around like crazy. M’hm. Wonderful! Besides that, we had a cabana. That’s good too, we get food and drinks, a place to st and inner tubes.
The bad:
Well, let’s not turn this into a full-on rant..however the things that kept this from getting a full 5.0 are as follows:
There were lots of bees .2
Some one vomited in the Tidal Wave Bay .4
There were long lines .1
That acounts for a full .7, which is the missing portion/amount to reach 5.0.

Swimming:
AUG 11: To everyone’s amazement, in the swimming relay, the US team won! It was amazing, the US won by a few seconds alone. I remember something where the French team said they’d “smash” the US team. Well, they were very close to their goal.
Anyone who wasn’t watching should have seen Michael Phelps’ face. It was hilarious! 
He’s reached his goal of eight medals now. In three days or so, he’s gotten three medals that have helped him achieve his goal. yay!
Gymnastics:
AUG 11: I’m sorry, but I want China to win for this. Have you seen them? Well, they have huge muscles (the guys), and the girls are amazing! They really know how to impress. Yup! Also, the guys can pretty much support their weight on their arms. You should see it if you haven’t.
AUG 12: Watching USA currently (Men’s). Apparently we’re doing the best so far. Man they’re amazing!
Diving:
AUG 11: (Men’s synchronized) Again, I’m rooting for different teams..not US. Ok, China has got it down pretty much. Almost perfectly synchronized. Then, I liked Russia too. ^^ There really isn’t much to say about diving, however US was always off. It didn’t matter how little or how much, but they were always a bit off. 
AUG 12: Alright, I think this is woman’s synchronized and their diving from thirty feet. Ok, US did really well for the first. Two Chinese girls 15 and 16..wow they were perfect. Seriously, completely synchronized and they entered the water cleanly. Canada now, very well synchronized, but not as clean as the Chinese.
This one girl, Haley Ishimatsu dove 33 ft at age 12. I forget what team she’s on.
Tennis:
AUG. 12: Well, I’m watching that right now…currently want Australia to win. ^^ We’ll see how the match turns out. Eh, I dunno what happened or anything…
Handball:
AUG 12: Well, I’m surprised. Finally, I’m watching Handball. Hehe, I thought it’d be more like the game I’m used to playing at school. Well, I never played well. but any way, its different. Currently, its: Poland vs. Spain. The ball used in this game is smaller than a volleyball and weighs a pound apparently. Poland’s winning I think.
