Randomness #2

I hate waking up. :P

‘Getting up in the morning has never been easy for me. Why should I be the only one to suffer?’ These are my thoughts as I throw my pillow at the unfortunate person who has the death sentence of waking me up. When I hear the footsteps retreat, I smile and full my fleece blanket up around my face. Ha. I win. Eventually I feel guilty and decide to get up and apologize to the unlucky victim. I say sorry to two members of my family before I find the actual one. I the grudgingly get dressed and grab some breakfast. In mid-meal, I realize I’m absolutely freezing, so I grab a think blanket to wrap around me and start heading back to the table but then I stop in my tracks as the couch beckons me. I give in, and drift off into a deep sleep, knowing this time, I don’t have a pillow to defend me from the waking world.

Well, I ain't feeling to great, but maybe now I will?

Hmm. Being a teenager is extremely lame and over dramatic and hectic.
Crazy week.
Now I'm just so tired. I'm glad I can write on my blog... It helps me. Sorry for leaving you hanging, but I don't really want to write about what MADE me in a bad mood. So yeah. I miss you guys! I miss familyyy! It's been great being here with just Nikol. I love the parents, but I've gotten to talk to her a lot. Muy divertido. :) So now I'm just making a random post dedicated to how awesome possum you guys are. You basically make up all the awesome parts of me. Love you guys sooooooooooo much!

Pictures of Robsons!

Sorry there's not very many...

Tid Bit of Randomness From Aubrey #1

I dunno what this is about... I guess I kinda want to steal Amy's idea of having a weekly thing goin' on. Maybe in will motivate me to post. But I won't put weekly. That's too much pressure. I think for the most part these are things that I've written. I have a lot of these little paragraphs of randomness. Enjoy.

“When I was your age…” OH NO. Those words. Those world automatically put my mind on screensaver. Wait- did they even have screensavers back then? I ponder these things as I half-listen to an old woman drone on about the past. How did those people exist without iPods, computers, and idiotic superstars to make fun of? I go through a list of every helper, every electronic device, every this-will-make-your-life-so-much-easier-once-you-understand-how-to-use-it-knick-knack and decide that all the 12-language instructions and do-it-yourself manuals may be a cause of brain cancer.

Robsons! :D

The Robsons came! It was mucho fun!! Not much to say. We dressed up Skylar and Justin like girls. We tried to dress up Jake, but he refused to do it, so we locked him outside for two hours. :) What good baby sitters we are!
We also went to the boardwalk and got sunburned! YUS!
Don't worry. Pictures are to come!
Nothing much besides that has happened... I've just been going around school surviving, having too many test to count... But I now embrace Spring Break with open arms! Sleeping in is AMAZING.
I've been trying to update my blog more often. Aren't you proud? :D

Oh, Amy, I love you!

I love you right now, Amy. I mean, I've always loved you, and I always will, but right now, you're especially awesome.
I was in a really bad mood earlier.
I mean, a really bad mood.
And I was praying I could find something to help me get into a better mood, and I had this feeling to go through that one file cabinet with all my old stuff.
And I found letters.
Letter that you had written to me when I was two years old. And that was the answer to my prayers.

Dear Aubrey, It's nothing fancy but I've wanted to start your journal for you. You are almost two. You call Ryan Robbie, Nicole- gaga, Amy- meme. You can point to your nose, eyes, ears, hair, head, fingers, toes, tummy, but your favorite is your eyebrows. When you point to your head, you hit it and say ow. The cutest is when you see something gross you saw "ewww"! You LOVE to play outside and your favorite people are probably Mom, Nicole, and Laura and Thomas Prusso (our next door neighbors). In church you always run to Sister Prusso's lap. You like to say "mea" or "nye" which translated means "mean" and "nice". Sometimes (well actually- all the time) Nicole and I turn on the Disney Classics casette tape and we dance with you. We teach you all kinds of dances like "headbanging", the "cha-cha", the "cabbage patch" and all sorts of things.
You are totally cuddly and love to give hugs and kisses and you never leave anyone out. When someone comes home, you run to them with your arms outstretched to give that person a huge hug. You've cheered me up so many times. I always call you "Babe" or "Babes". You're so much fun. I don't know what we would do without you. I'm so sad that I'll be going away to college when your only 4 or 5. I won't get to see you grow up. But I'll leave his for you to read so you know how much I love you.
Love,
Amy

What an amazing sister you are! You and Nicole and Andrea are amazing influences to me. I feel bad for those girls without older sisters. :) They're missing out BIG TIME.
There are two other letters, and I might type them up when I get time, but now I have to go.

DISNEYLAND. Stupid guys. 3rd Trimester.

Yes, folks! I went to Disneyland two weekends ago! It was AMAZING.I went on all the big rides. Even Space Moutain. And I loved them all. EXCEPT Space Mountain. :) I'm now a Disneyland-aholic.I loveloveloveloved Splash Mountain and Indiana Jones. We went on Splash Mountain seven times in a row- ten in one day- thirteen times the whole trip! Woo!
We went for a choir competition. We one Silver by a point! Grr! All the other groups got gold. But we did pretty well, especially for a Concert Choir. G (the choir teacher) was so proud of us. I love that man! :) He went on Pirates of the Caribbean with me and we sang our pirate song that we learned in choir.
Oh by the way, here are the links to our performances! (Not the ones in Disneyland, but our Winter Concert.)

Of course, there was drama on the trip. A guy named Kyle being really perverted to me on the last day at Disneyland. However, through a course of crazy, confusing events, he got kicked out of choir and I never have to deal with him again! I see him around campus sometimes, but I never have to talk to him. And he's a senior, so he'll graduate next year. Phew.

The day after we got home from the happiest place on earth, we started a new trimester! My classes are boring, especially my first two, Geometry and Bio. Health is fun though. All you do is talk about yourself. :) And choir is good. For the first week after Disneyland, I kept thinking Kyle was going to come back, so I couldn't enjoy the time, but last Monday it was confirmed that he got kicked out of the class. Since then, it's been great. We're singing a song by STYX called Come Sail Away, and a song from one of the best musicals EVER, Urinetown!

I'm lucky. I have friends in all my classes. One of my very very very best friends at LHS, Cassandra Hiner, is in two of my classes. And, all my teachers are good, except for Mrs. Haugen. But you know, it's alright. She's just boring.

And that's the lowndown of my life right now. It's basically good right now. Lot's of fun with friends. Peter Nyholm and I have a war going on right now. So with that and all the ther crazy stuff me and my friends do, I think I'l be looking back at Freshmen year fondly...

Though I guess I can't say anything yet. There's still two and a half months or so...
