Today a lot of things happened!  So I woke up and read a little bit because I have a lot of reading to do by Monday and Julia joined me :)  Then Kelley came home right before I finished my chapter and we all decided to eat breakfast after this happened.  Then Kelley face timed Justin and we just kind of sat there before I finished my chapter and took a shower.  I showed Julia the creek in our backyard and then we went on a very short bike ride so I could show her around town but since town is very small, it was short.  When we got home we played Just Dance for the length of three songs and then we had lasagna for dinner!  Then after dinner Kelley, Julia, and I decided to go see Titanic in 3D!!!  We left right after dinner and got there at a perfect time!  The theater was really empty though.  Here's a picture of the poster:

I was really excited to see this not because it would be in 3D but because I didn't get a chance to see it last time it was in theaters because I was like 2 or something.  And it was great on the big screen!  The 3D was kind of a waste of my life but that's okay!  We decided to take a cool mustache picture in our glasses because we all looked very secretive :)  The guy in front of us kept turning around and staring at us while we were waiting for the previews to start.  Stupid man.  Also, he got up at least five times during the movie, ugh.  The movie was as great as ever though!  I almost cried and Julia did cry and then we stayed during the credits and sang "My Heart Will Go On" and it was beautiful!  That ending scene in the movie gets me every time!  SOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!  Ahhh, Leo :)  Then we came home and stayed up until 1:30 talking and then went to bed.  Kyle came home at 10ish while we were at the theater so now he is home too!

Happy Good Friday!!  Today I had the day off of school since it was Good Friday!  Yay!  I like having four day weeks!  Mom decided to take the day off of work so that she, Julia, and I could go to a mall!  We left at 10ish and then had time to shop until about 4ish and then we headed back home after eating at Panera and DQ.  It was delicious but I had to go tumbling after that so it kind of made me nauseous haha :)  Julia came to tumbling with me which I think must be pretty boring but she was nice and said it wasn't :).  After we came home, we ate dinner and then decided to watch a movie.  Since I only watched part I of Avatar the day I went to pick up Julia, I suggested we watch the whole thing and Julia said she had never watched it so it was perfect!!!  So we watched Avatar!  Here's a picture of our awesome DVD case!  After the movie, it was like 11:30 at night so we all decided to go to bed!  Yay!

Yay!!!  Today was very uneventful I guess.  The Germans went to Chicago today so it was a pretty normal day compared to the rest of the week.  It was our last day of school for the week so that was exciting!!!  In psych, we're doing a project and me and my group picture above got assigned to do this guy who studied morality.  Our project is to create a skit where we act out our psychologist's theories and explain them and everything but since three out of four of us are horrible actresses, we decided it would be better to do this in movie format so that we could keep redoing it if we started laughing :)  Katie ended up doing some pretty insane stuff mainly because the rest of us were telling her to haha :)  We think the video is hilarious but we think nobody else will find it funny :)  So anyway, they came over to my house after school and we filmed our whole video!  We took a dinner break because Mom made fettuccine and then we took a field trip to pick Julia up from the train station!  Yay!  Then we finished the rest of the movie and they went home at around 8:30ish!  Then I did some homework because I have a ton this weekend for some reason...boo :(  Tomorrow we're going to a mall!  Yay!

Happy 25th anniversary, Mom and Dad!!!  Yay!!  I forgot it was their anniversary until first hour when Mrs. Van asked me the date and then I remembered!  It was so exciting haha :)  Yes this blog post is late again...:) 
So today was another day with the Germans!!!  Yay!!  We had a scavenger hunt during our German class to show them around the school and they had to do a lot of crazy things like eat a box of peeps and sing a song to the librarians!  I got awesome videos :)  Here is a picture of my group and another group once we got to this room.  We were supposed to find a purple bean bag but we didn't find it so we just took a picture in the room it was supposedly in instead!  Yay!  This picture is slightly awkward but that's okay!  The rest of the day was pretty normal.  After school there was a little party type thing in our courtyard where we played bean bags and kickball and ate pizza.  I had to leave early to go to tumbling but it ended pretty soon afterward.  Then  I went to tumbling and came home and watched American Idol, and then Julia and I stayed up until midnight talking and it was great :)  I skipped all my homework but that's okay because everybody understands :)

Today's bloggy-blog is going to be a short one cause I'm tired.  So I guess I'll begin at midnight when my day started.  13 other people and I went to the airport at midnight to go pick up our German friends.  We got there around 12:00 and then they walked out of customs at 12:30ish.  It was very exciting but awkward because I'm an awkward person.  Then we took the bus back and we got to our school at about 1:30ish.  By the time me and my German exchange student got home and went to bed, it was around 2:30ish and we had to wake up at 7ish.  The Germans spent all day yesterday in an airport and they hadn't slept for, like, 27 hours unless it was on the plane or whatever.   But they still went to school because they're troopers :)  So yeah.  I didn't bother doing anything in class today because my exchange student was with me for some of the day and that meant I didn't feel like focusing haha.  In econ, since that is the class of not doing anything, we took a quiz on the making of bourbon and then he created a certificate.  I wanted to take a picture of the certificate but he closed out of our and this was what was left...so enjoy!

Hello!!  Today was a very uneventful day but it was great for having a first day back!  I thought I would be LOADED with homework but the only homework I ended up having was the preexisting stuff I already knew I had!  I also finished my econ homework in study hall so that was nice haha :)  In psych, we took a personality test and then we had to read about our personalities and I ended up tying in one of the categories so I had to look at two types which were guardian and idealist and when I read about them I realized I was more of an idealist...soooo...if you care, that's what personality I am!!!  Then we did nothing for the rest of the day!  Yay!  When I got home, there was an envelope/package from Butch and Judy waiting for me on the table and I was really confused at what it could be and then I opened it up :)  They sent me a card for accomplishing my donation and they also sent a roll of red cord hahaha :)  They're awesome!  In this picture, I had just woken up from taking a 2 hour nap so that's why I might look a little strange :)  Now I'm done with my homework, I'm going to watch Avatar, and then I'm going to the airport to pick up our German friends!  Yay!  Also, I'm wearing one of my new Old Navy shirts in this picture but you can't really see its awesomeness :)

HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S DAY EVERYBODY!!!  I spent my whole entire day doing homework and this sadly is not a joke :(  I wish it was!  I finished my German essay and tried to finish econ but got super bored and skipped the very last problem hahaha almost there!!!  Anyway, today during lunch Dad told me that he put the crap fairy out today!!!!  Back in Freshman year while we were filming a German video, Katie was filming something and then she saw this fairy.  She decided to film it and say "crap fairy" in the background because this fairy is squatting and looks like it's going to the bathroom hahaha :)  My Dad finds this hilarious :)  I texted Katie today and told her the crap fairy was put out and she was also very excited about this :)  Also, today I found a bone in my tuna....it hurt my tongue :(  Here's a picture:

It really grosses me out cause now I'm imagining tuna skeletons and I get kind of nauseous haha.  Oh boy.  That was my very exciting last day of break!  Kyle went home today and I go back to school tomorrow.  *Sarcastic yay*  Only 1 1/2 months left!!!!!!!!
