Jacob Black

So, I had to take the test. And frankly, I'm not surprised about my outcome. But Jacob's nice. So I'm satisfied.



You're Jacob Black - You were raised to believe that family and community is the most important thing in life. You are also a fun-loving person who sometimes can see life a little too amusing and have trouble taking things seriously. Over all, you're a loyal and excellent friend to have.

Life is GOOD.

YAYIT'SHALLOWEEN! Last night I was TOTALLY freaking out, because I didn't get to bed 'til past midnight. Therefore, I was awake during the first minutes of Halloween. THEREFORE I was too excited to sleep!
Anyway, Now I will explain yesterday's events. I was MISERABLE during choir (I know, be in shock!) because Bee said I couldn't leave early because I had missed too many practices. So THEN to top it off, she let us out 15 minutes late! So I didn't get out until 7:35. I was so mad, because I wanted to get to the dance!
So I got there, and most of the time I just hung around with Krista, Audrey, Alicia, and Mikki. Mostly the earlier three.
But I did dance with Ben Perry and Nathan Graves.
There's a story behind the dance with Nathan:
He had asked me to dance during a fast song, but he didn't want to dance to a fast one, so we decided to wait for a slower one. But then, after the fast song: THE DANCE ENDED. The DJ said we should get a closing prayer. I felt pretty bad... So I had to go, but then Audrey had to go back inside to get her jacket, and he was still in there, so I ended up dancing with him in the end.

So I was pretty sad, because the dance was INSIDE.
Bleh.
Oh- and by the way, I didn't even FEEL the earthquake, because I was too bust dancing! =D Hahaha. I got home, and we turned on the new, and we saw all of these pictures of stuff that had fallen off shelves in stores and stuff. O_O Nothing happened at the dance though...
Also, I WOULD post pictures of my Halloween costume I have, buuutttt... I can't find the chord that connects the camera to the computer. =( So you'll have to wait.
Buhbye.

THIS is Halloween!

So, here I am in the MOST AMAZING HALLOWEEN COSTUME EVER. Well, my favorite. I really like it. I'm very indecisive when it comes to cosumes, but I finally decided on one:
A BANSHEE.
Well, that's what the costume is called. It's really cool. I love it. =] SOGRATEFUL.
But we went to Spirit to buy it, and it was horrible. Lots of the costumes there were gross or inappropriate. And some of the decorations were HORRIBLE! Never go to Spirit.
And if you have to, plan before hand what you want, close your eyes as you walk in and walk straight to the thing you want, buy it, GET OUT.
-sigh- I wish Mom's camera wasn't dead. Then I could post pictures of it.
I thought it was quite funny that I was a banshee, because as some people know, I can scream REALLY loud. REALLY REALLY loud. REALLY REALLY REALLY- you get the point. =)
Anyway, I'm off!

Enjoy!

A History of Music in Five Minutes.

I've discovered something amazing, thanks to Audrey. It's called A History of Music in Five Minutes. It's this video Audrey showed me when she came over a while back. All it is is these men with these strange looking instrument- I mean, they're normal instruments (cello, violin, viola...), they just look strange. Anyway, they just play parts of all these famous songs in under 5 minutes. Their facial expressions are hilarious.

So it's become my addiction.

Whenever I'm in a bad mood, I'll just listen to it. It automatically cheers me up. I believe the band is called String Fever. Here's the link:

There's another video by them that I like, but I'll give the link later if you COMMENT AND SAY YOU WANT TO SEE IT. =)
Buhbye.

Run like the wind...!

So yesterday, Ryan and Andrea came. It was VERY exciting, and Jakob was so cute. We met them at Sweet Tomatoes for lunch and then while they went to our house, mom and I went to DirectBuy to return carpet samples. -sigh- That was quite boring, except I DID get a sticker! Yay!
Back to Ryan and Andrea- They have the best Halloween costumes ever! They were very convincing. Ryan even sprayed his hair orange. He was Ron, Andrea was Hermione, and Jakob was Harry Potter! (Oh- by the was, in The Odyssey, there's a little girl named Hermione. I was reading it today, and I did a double take when I was the name. I wonder if that's where J.K. Rowling got it from?)
We got at the trunk-or-treat like an hour late because I was being stupid, (Long story, don't ask) and ate. I wasn't wearing a costume, but I had just sprayed my hair purple. When I was in line for food, Peter came up to his mom (who was talking to my mom) and said he had won a cake at the cake walk. FREE CAKE!? So I basically swallowed my nachos whole and ran down to the cake walk. I LOVE cake walks. =) Even though I was like the oldest one there... So anyway, I won some cupcakes. Mhm, but they weren't very good...
I went back up to my family, but I didn't stay for long, because Noah wanted to go on the hay ride. Okay, truth is, I wanted to go on the hay ride, and Noah did too, so I took him as an excuse to go. On my way down, I ran into Nathan Graves, who I barely recognized because of his BLACK FRO. So he came with Noah and me down to the hay ride place. We had to wait quite awhile, but eventually we got on.
When I got on, I couldn't find Nathan. Then he called me and I found him on the other side of the tractor, hiding. He had decided to run along the tractor instead of go on it.
Foolish Nathan.
But I thought it was funny, so I cheered him on. "Remember, Nathan... Run like the wind!"
He basically walked to whole ride, we were going so slow.
But it was funny because everyone thought he was part of the ride. Like he was supposed to be a monster running after us so the kids were SCREAMING and the adults were LAUGHING and I was laughing AND screaming. For fun. =)
That was a fun night, even though I didn't get to go trunk-or-treating because I came too late.
I don't feel like explaining what happened today, but I might later. It's all very confusing...
Bye.

Halloween Havoc.

I think I'm having a last minute freak-out period about Halloween. I don't LOVE love either one of my costumes anymore. Tomorrow for the church Trunk-or-Treat, I'm probably just going to Get my funny looking jean skirt and I shirt and put on my cape and be Little Red Riding Hood. Heh. Last year I went as a pirate, and my costume wasn't very comfortable, so I wanna be comfortable as the Trunk-or-Treat this year.
I think I got excited for Halloween too early this year, because now I'm all Excited-For-Halloweened out. Halloweened? Well, I feel like making up words.

PS
I was going through my old pictures, and I found this old one of when we went camping with the Inokuchis. Sara and I had walky-talkies, and so we made up code names. I was Batgirl, my campsite was The Bat Cave, and Sara was Supergirl. I forget what her camp site was. Anyway, here's the picture. It's really random.

In case you can't read it, it says Batgirl was here. Hey, it's hard to write with that stuff!
Yeah, random.
Bye!

Sing a Mile High!

I found the information to this choir competition my choir is going to next summer. It's called Sing a Mile High. It's in Denver (Woohoo!) and I believe we're staying in the dorms of a college there. VERY exciting. It looks like a fun schedule because every night we're doing something fun! The first night there's a Ice Cream Social, the second we'll probably go to a water slide park, and so on and so forth. =) I'm really excited about getting all these opportunities to sing... Everywhere... I'm bummed we didn't get to go Hawaii a few semesters back though... Wah.
We're also doing another concert in November. Bee (our director) says it's where directors come from all around the United States come to see us and other choirs perform so they can learn how to improve their own. VERY exciting. That's in San Jose.
And THEN we have one in DECEMBER. That's the Interfaith Choral Festival! I think it's at my church this year. Or is it always there...? Hm.
Anyway, I think I like choir too much for my own good. Correct me if I'm wrong. Heh. =)
