The weekends past up until tomorrow!

WHAT A BUMMER..... so the other day i bought 2 webkinz and right now i was going to log on and play, but their website is under matinece. ( Is that how you spell it, i am sure i got it wrong)..... To get to todays story i have to go back to sat.

Saturday- all of the SHS cheerleaders had to go and help out with a kids camp, it was from like 11-3:30 4 ish, and we taught them cheers, jumps, and chants. They were so cute. And the deal was that when they signed up to do this camp they get to cheer at the V game(Varsity) and be the half time preformance. They were so adorable. I worked with 2nd graders. No offense but i prefer littler kids than older ones. Okay and then after the camp i was really exausted so i started watching HSM 2 because i did not want to take a nap yet and then slowly i drifted to sleep for like and hour, Then at 6:30 i babysat until 11. WOW- what a day.

Sunday- I went with my grandma to Craft Warehouse, and there were stations in the store where we could make our own things. I made a magnet (those are so FUN and easy!), a Card, Colored ( Emily- i wanted to spell color you way in that sentence, i almost did it again now, lol!) a candle, imbroided a piece of fabric and made this flour lookin baloon thing. Its hard to explain the look. Then we went to Nordy's ( Norstrom) to go have lunch with my mom. I HAD THE BESTEST IN THE NORTH WESTEST sanwhich, it was a cali. chicken sanwhich. I htink that was what its called, if someone ever goes there and has it please tell me the name. So my nonni took off and i roamed the mall for 2 hrs alone, i went to AEROPOSTALE, PAC SUN, HALMARK( It is so hard to leave that store, there are so many creative and fun ideas), walked in VICTORIAS SECRET, AMERICAN EAGLE and then got a Dr.Pepper at Auntie Annes Pretzels,- They have the most wonderful strawberry lemonade. yummmmmmmmmmmmy. I was waiting for my mom to get off work and the people got "mad" that i was sitting in their department, so they made me sit in customer service..... lame//////////// i waited for a while and then we went home, On the way home my mom was like " You want to go to target?" and i said sure what the heck.. I saw Alex there! ( she's in my GS troop, and no i am not to old to be in girl scouts.)


Today-
~ my dad just came in and asked me what "font" i was using and it does not say.... All it says is "FONT" funny huh?
At the half time show there was this wonderful girl who was sitting next to me, i had such a good time talking to her, she was in my group. I was asking her like what i should get my mom for her B-day and she said make her something from Ceramics By You. And i thought that was a cool idea. I wish i could send her flowers at work. That would be cool! um, idk yet. but i got her a card thats nice. " ) that was what i wanted to say earlier.
I just listened to Sheryl Crow and her new song "LOVE IS FREE" its good. check out the video on youtube or something. and its almost 11 (Now- 10:44 PM) gotta go. even though its a late start i still need my beauty sleep.

Well because i forgot what i was going to say i will tell you what my webkinzs look like or what they are, (P.S i named them) MURPHY is a yellow lab and Koco is a Koala. ( that word is sooooo hard to spell. LOL!)


Tomorrow- IS MY MOMS BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY! so i am not going to cheer pract. tomorrow and i will be home when she gets home, we are having a party for her.
In ASL class i have to sign Work This Out which i am excited about but the only thing i do not like is that our teacher is recording us on a video camera, some how i got ot get pased that. I don't mind being filmed, but still.......... Well i think i can close this up now.
OH YEA- 2 hr late start i keep forgetting.... ha ha
I have a biology test tomorrow. YIPEE!!!!!!!!! jk, actually i really don't mind biology, i may not understand it 100% but i don't mind it. : p

HAVE A GREAT NIGHT~

Love Always,
Amanda Panda

P.S
Today i really missed my Uncle Dick. In History i have to do a CBA (Criculum Based Assement) and we have to do it on a job, i did(earlier we did a career research paper in english and i did it on photography)/doing mine on photographers, and like we have to talk about how photography helps the economy, what laws can restrict it and what do we have to know about the laws, education- and how will it help you becoem successful ya-da ya-da ya-da the list could go on and on(So i will stop. Its due in 1 week, i have FINALS NEXT WEEK! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH). But i really wish Uncle Dick was here, he loved photography, he was a great person and it would be nice for some guidance on my paper, and even just guidance in general. Its so weird how his son ( my cousin) reminds me and looks so much like him. Anyways, i wrote a poem for him, i will add it in later, i think its downstairs at the moment. I can remember in 8th grade for culture fair we had to pick a person we wanted to interview, and the biggest SPARK of HAPPINESS came in my mind. I was thinking i would interview my uncle dick. Then my happiness started to fade away. I realized he was not here any more. Its hard to understand how a person can be here one second and gone the next.

Lately i have been trying new things, such as food, my style of clothing ect. its kinda cool. My mom pointed that out to me and i was proud of myself. I am not a big change person at all.

Tomorrow, i am going to go on a run and go back to that place last time where i kinda freaked out and did "not feel real" i am curious to see if it will happen again. i think i will be fine. What i try to do my best at every day is be positive, i may not always be happy inside, but i do my best to stay positive, who knows maybe i will make someones day or help them realize that even if something is wrong you can always turn you life around.

In PE online i am basically flunking, but thats a long story.
Summary-
In the beg. i could not log on. My comp. would not allow the site
They changed my password on me.
Then i figured it out and had to make up stuff.
I was not getting the required hrs (6) in per week, for some reason i thought it was 3. YIKES!
now he is letting me make up stuff which is nice and i will hopefully pull out an C. I was not happy. So 2nd smister i have to step it up.\

Wehw- i wish this could be my paper, but only about photography. lol, then i would be finished.

Um on my SOPHMORE RESEARCH PAPER i was the only person in my class who got 0% plagerized ( THATS AWESOME BY THE WAY....lol) and i got a 100% on my paper. It made me angry that almost everyone got 100%, he did not really grade our paper, he skimmed it and made sure we had everything that was needed to turn in, and gave us credit for that.

GOSH i never shush do I.

alright i am stopping now. "GOODNIGHT! SLEEP TIGHT! DREAM OF BED BUGS TONIGHT!"-Pumba from the LIon Kind 1 1/2


I recomend everyone to check out this website: He is my hero. http://www.treyfootefoundation.com/index.html

Its for a kid at my school who passed away from cancer. He is an amazing person (even though i never knew him, from all the stories, pictures and knowing his family members you get the sense of Trey.)

tornado and yesterday

I SURVIVED MY 1st WEEK OF SCHOOL! Yayyyyyyyyyyyy me! lol.

~~~~Um so like on Thursday we were supposed to have a fire drill, key word "Drill", and then they decided to turn the power off and then turn it back on. After the power came back on our principal came on the intercom and siad "That will include our drill".... a few minutes later she came on the intercom again and said to get away from all the windows, this is a tornado drill...... All the students went into the middle of their classrooms and then once again she came on the intercom and said there was a tornado warning. I WAS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SCARED...yet calm. So i tried calling my mom and dad, they both did not answer... so i called my friends in texas but they did not answer either. I wanted someone to talk to , but the only bummer was i did not get much service (like 1 bar) and i did not want to let others know i was scared. If it was more severe i would be scared. Our class just sat there for a while and she( our principal) said we can go about our day, just stay away from windows and once we get home just lay low for the rest of the day. For a second i thought she said we had to stay in 5th period the rest of the day ( 2 hrs to go! YIKES) but i heard wrong. so thats my BIG-ish SCARY news.

Last night i cheered at a Boys basketball game, it was very intense, we lost by 2 pts. After the game i showed mom my school and then we decided we were going to go out to dinner. We could not discribe what our taste-buds wanted so we raomed places and ended up at Baja Fresh ( I LOVE THAT PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and then saw a movie called "THE BUCKET LIST"-ONE OF MY FAVORITE MOVIES OF ALL TIME! i recomend you all see it.


BYE BYE!,
Amanda


oh i got my present from my cousin, Cassie, and i got a notebook to write my hopes and dreams in it and other things.... and i got a little coach coin purse thingy. It can hold you keys too.


P.S

Goodnight (12:20 AM )

Future-----------Past

Today- was a good day! I slept into about 10ish, actually i think my alarm woke me up at 9:50, after a while sleeping into 10:30-11AM gets old, so i woke up and watched some t.v., after that steven and I played 2 games of UNO but we both kinda forgot how to play so we both argued a little over the rules. Then my nonni (grandma) came over and we sewed. We worked on my Pajama pants.
*Quick question for EMily: Do you spell pajamas the same as i do?*
We almost got finished, The fabric is thin, but the plus side to that is I can say "I MADE THOSE!" and they are PINK! cool huh? it would be fun to put different patches on them and each patch could symbloize different things. Alright lets move on. Nonni came over around noon so we had about 2 1/2 hours to sew. (Preperations take a long time) and then i had to go to my TMJ appt. My splint broke, so today i got a new one, well its the same one just all fixed up. I did pretty well without it for a day, but it feels better to have it in. ( i think i will still have it in when i get my top braces. I would rather get both at the same time but what ever works best...) And to end the night off we went bowling with our neighbors ( we kinda had a family VS family challenge, they had a batter avg. but it was all fun) after bowling i played some games and just out of one game i got like 300 TICKETS!!!!!!!!! CHA CHING! lol :p That made my day. And on my other BIG AL's Card i had like 400 and sumthin tickets so in the end i had a total of 774 tocketrs to spend. I want to get a ipod nano ( i have a video_, not the newest one that just came out the one before it. the long and skinny one. It would be nice for running, or even a shuffle for that matter, they had that too. SO i want to save ALL my tickets. On the way home my dad stopped at Burgerville and got us ice cream. YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For some reason this did not trun purple...wonder why? sorry about that.

-BACK IN TIME-(NEW YEARS<>

New Years EVE- For dinner on New Years EVE we called around places downtown and they were both packed...so they say. We normally go to Henrys Tavern (soooo good!) or P.F Changs . They are one block away from each other and that was the first time they were really packed so we ( our neighbors and I) went to Chili's. Our server looked like a combination of one of our old neighbors and his son. it was soooo weird. It was really embarssing: At the table our waiter comes over and (either he said something funny or one person of our group did) but we were laghing and i had somewhat heartburn building up in my chest and i started to laugh and i BURPED!!! The waiter thought i snorted, it was funny. It was weird too. OH yeah and then i went to my friends party, i has a good time. I hung out with Jenny, Kendall, Savannah ect. lots of other people. I ran in heels and did cartwheels down the street w/ Jenny. lol. ummmm playes Twister, Gutiar Hero, Watched the NEW YEARS EVE thing in NYC on T.V. um yeah. thats all.

(To the left is our christmas picture, Emily did i send one to you? If not i still can... I think?)
Christmas- WAS AWESOME! IT SNOWED IN BIGGGG FLAKES, but it did not stick sadly, so early christmas morning i went over to my neighbors house to srop off their gifts,(they had their family over) and they invited us in. I was surprised..."They were like come on in....(we were over there for a while) You're snowed in, the dad said and then he *laughed*" so we hung out there and then went home. Nonni was there and i don't remember much more. We had Christmas Dinner at our house and my Uncle Tim came over and Annie Grannie and Papa also (my aunt and uncle). It was nice.


Christmas EVE- Was okay, i was not the happiest camper. For dinner we went down to our neighbors house( this time it was a different neighbor) for dinner. We thought we would give it a chance and try it out. So we had a yummy lasagna lookin thing, but it was not called lasagna. It was goooood! Then i ran home and got my "Polar Express" book and then came back. (Brenda, the mom made us spanish hot choc. which is not my prefrence, but thats okay). When i was ready to read the book i read it to steven and Garin ( have i told you this all before? oh well) and they were not paying much attention, but i read it anyways for myself. : ) the parents were loud too. Then we turned on the movie and because no one was watching it with me Jody sat down with me and watched part of it. Then we went home and opened a couple of presents, ( like 2) and i guess i had a attitude that night, i was tired, and did not seem to appericiate the gifts.
SO i was upset, talked it out with my mom and then went to bed. <- that was a nutshell. lol.

Christmas DAY(Cont.)- WAS GREAT! I loved my presents, so did my brother. My dad got spoiled this year. lol. Every year there is always at least one person that you collect for without thinking over time and then it comes to christmas and BOOM! There it is.

What i got for Christmas:

Lava Lamp(Purple and Orange) Adidias Boots(Very comphy, i wear them a lot, its more like a shoe fit) $15 Itunes card Money from family SOCKS!!!!!!!!!!! I ♥ socks, espically warm ones $10 Blockbuster gift card $25 Target Gift Card Outfit: Vest, shirt, Jeans, Belt and Scarf My mom put the charms on my charm braclet HSM 2 DVD-YAYAYAYAYAYAY HSM 2 DS game Monkey ball DS game Nerf Case(blue like this color, sorta, but darker) It protects it more and i have a pink DS so not i call it cotton candy. get it? blue and pink! *I am running a blank in my mind, sorry....... Its late, its 11:17*
Coach Purse Hand Warmers(THANK THE LORD FOR THOSE, i can use them when i got to the bus early in the morning when its freezing like 46 degrees or lower. It only got down to about 37 degrees at the most though...but thats my guess, i am not a wether woman) Portable speackers that plug into my ipod, and they are not battery operated! SWSWEET!

Thats all i can think of for now. Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,
BOOK I RECOMEND TO EVERYONE!
Written By: Sean Cover
Title: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens
I am almost done and after i am finished i want to read
Written By: Sean Cover
Title: The 8 Habits of Highly Effective people

What i like to do with those books is write side notes and underline then highlight a passage or quote that i like.

He is a very good author and explains stuff well. Last night or the night before i was reading passages to my mom and she said another cool job for college or like um, to study about is phycology. ( Can't spell ) i could be a childrens phycoloigest. I love to be with little kids, They are always fun and have a smile on their face, sometimes i wish i could be one again maybe just for a day.... Another job/career i like also as a hobby is writing poetry, maybe i should take some journalism classes, but the only thing is, is that i do not like writing reports... i am more of a expressive writer.

I am bored.

Oh darn, i thought of something earlier.... and it was good to. I was either going to make a point or state something..... GRRRRRRRR, what did i want to say.
----------------------------------------------------------
Well heres another thing,

I mentioned before on how i was not "feeling real" and these past few days i have been feeling great. I feel like i am me and i am here for a reason. This thing "Episode" what eva you want to call it does not happen every day. Just sparaticly every now and then. So am very pleased with that. I don't know how i am feeling better about it but i am!
----------------------------------------------------------
Beauty Tip: If you do not like getting your eyebrows waxed,Like me, ( i have done it once, its really not that bad) and you pluck them, put some lotion on them and then pluck them with a magnified mirror. I like the mag. mirror because you can see what your doing. i don't like it when i can't. lol.
----------------------------------------------------------
I think that wraps it up tonight.
Love ya'll
Amanda Panda

P.S
now i am mad, my brother took my ummm SD card out of my camera and put it in his video camera and then he gave it back to me and now i don't have any pictures on it. I AM P.O.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now i don't even remember what pictures i had on my camera.......... i want to cuss but i try not to. It does not make me feel better at all. not even a split second. but sometimes i say it in my head... or very quietly if i am by myself.
-Well i guess part of it is okay now, i went onto his account because i remmebered he wantted to make a christmas slide show, and he had to use my camera tp put the pics. on his side and so now i got them from his side and i have some left, fortunatly.
