hey! well today was pretty good i guess. i woke up at 10...for some reason that has been my usual time to wake up now...it's weird. i mean this morning i woke up EXACTLY at 10... so i went downstairs and found that everybody had left to go to noah's school for him to meet his teacher and stuff. my dad was home tho. i made myself a bagel w/ egg, bacon, and cheese on it...yum! then i went upstairs and talked on the compooper for some time. then dad called me down to tell me i got a letter...and it was my pen pal's info.!! :-D her name is Katya Rusakova...she's 14 (like me!!)...she lives in russia...and she knows the russian, english, and german languages. so i was soo happy! this is my first penpal...well actually i think i had one in 3rd grade for my class and the penpals were another class in washington. but i vaguely remember that. so anyways...i've already started up a letter. i asked her a ton of ?'s and told her about me and at the top of the paper i decorated her name w/ markers i got for my b-day. then later on i went out w/ my fam. to O'Charleys for lunch. i got my fav.: over loaded potatoe soup. it has of course potatoes in it, bacon, and cheese. it's sooo good! and it's very filling but i ate the whole bowl. on the way home i saw a sign that said 'T HNK PIZZA' it was supposed to be 'THINK PIZZA' but somebody took out the I and slid over the H. so we were making fun of it and saying 'hello, i'd like to have the T HNK pizza please' and we were making up foods that start w/ T H N and K. it was funny. so when i got home i watched ice princess cuz we got it from the blockbuster ppl...we switched to them instead of netflix. so i watched that and i loved it! movies like those make me wanna do something...like this movie made me want to ice skate really bad. i love ice skating but i've only been once and that was w/ chelsea. i was pretty good at it for starters. so then my mom went out to ginger's and me and grammy were stuck making din din. we made tacos...well actually i did most of it...she mainly just told me wut to do. and it turned out really good! i'm proud of myself cuz my mom never lets me in the kitchen to cook...but grammy lets me :-). my mom really never lets me do anything...she always wants ppl to help her around the house but when i say 'can i help' she says 'no! just let me clean and you can go and be lazy and sit in ur room all day' and i HATE THAT!!!!! >:-0 well that was basically my day. oh and jo and grammy are leaving tonight :'( i hate it when company leaves. *sigh* i can't wait till grammy lives just up the street...literally. she's gonna be living all the way up on samana's street...YAY! ok well gonna go, bye bye, lyl! :-)
