YOU went to Prom?!

Me and Mollie, my BFF.

Yup! I went to prom! Well, actually, it was my BFF's prom. She invited me to go to her junior prom! (BTW, because I'm home schooled, I wouldn't have gotten a prom.) Because she's my freakin' BFF, I of course said "OKAY!!!!!!". I really really really REALLY wanted to go! Lol!

So the shoppin' began....
I was in need of:
A dress
Heels (no flats allowed by my mother!)
Accessories

We went to the Auburn mall and got all of the above, and some. My mom paid for everything but! I paid her back for it all with my hard earned cash!
Hooray!!
*Confetti* *Balloons* *Applause*

So at the mall we got a dress, earrings, and shoes. The dress took about 15 minutes to get. The earrings were in the same store as the dress so that was painfully easy. Lol!

The shoes took us a while though. We went to about 3 different shoe stores in the mall. We found a pair of sliver flip-flops that were very tight. My feet were soooo swollen after walking around the mall all day but we bought them anyway. Before we went home Mom and Vayda went to a pet store and I went to a Payless next door. I found the perfect shoes! They fit perfectly! They are black heels (not to tall!) with a thong strap and rhinestone squares on each. Very cute! (I'm only describing them to you because I didn't take any pictures and I seriously don't want to! :P)

After everything was found we headed back for home, exhausted!

The day of the prom came. I painted my fingers (and toes) with silver nail polish. I had my mom cut my hair (Ok, more like buzz it but w/e). She also plucked my eyebrows, (which I must say is about THE most painful thing I've gone through! I hate it!!) till they were, in her eyes, perfect. I then showered so I'd be clean (duh) and so Mom could do my hair. She gelled it up and pt little clips in it. Not my thing but she said that I was gorgeous and that if I complained, she would kill me. Soooo...lol. I then put on my dress and heels. Then Vayda sat me down and attacked...I mean, put make-up on, my face. After that, we took tons of pictures!

My bff Mollie was already at my house because she was not only getting ready but we were giving her a ride. So she was all gussied up and I was all gussied up and our mothers had tears in their eyes. I'm thinking that they thought we were beautiful....Lol!

My (beautiful) self with my mother and Mollie (also very beautiful) with her mother.

Me and my "Make-up Artist"

Mollie and I bought each other corsages. Why? Because we could! :P Lol!

The one pictured above was mine. Wasn't it pretty? Now it's it's all dry and lumpy...

On the road...and lookin' FINE! Lol!

The prom was at Bellhurst Castle so it wasn't much of a drive. Mom and her (crazy!) friend Heather drove us there because they were going out to dinner anyway.

(No photo for this 'cause that would be just weird!)

At Bellhurst we had a really nice dinner. We had waiters and everything!

I had Chicken Parmesan and Mollie had a pasta dish 'cause of her vegetarian-ness...aka Veg Headed-ness.

We arrived and found some friends!

Our friend Tiarra (the blond in the first picture) was there with her boyfriend, Michel (who goes to school with Mollie.) She looked great! Her dress was AMAZING on her!

The second picture is of Mollie's friends, Rachel and Roger. They were both very nice (I totally wanted Rachel's dress!) and quirky. We went to Denny's with them after the prom.

Here's pictures of everyone dancing.

(First pic) Unfortunately, this was a slow song, which is why I was just taking pictures and not dancing along! (Second pic) The dancing was fun but it got really good when they whipped out the glow stick-necklaces!

Then it was AWESOME!!!!

This is Mollie, Rachel and Roger...in the dark!

We were pretty tired so we all took a break from dancing.

Mollie and I chillaxin'

(This picture was taken during a slow song. That's pretty much the only time we had for pictures. The rest of the time we were on the dance floor. Lol!)

All in all it was an awesome night.

As you can tell, I was very happy that I went.

RENT Review

Alright,

As you probably know from the older post on RENT, I went to see RENT, live and on stage in Rochester.

Well, here's my take on it:

It was amazing!!!!!!

The guys who played Roger and Mark were the same guys from the Broadway production and the movie!!!! I was practicality freakin' out when I found out! Lol!

Anyway...I was so happy to be there! The play was wayyy better than even I dreamed! Everyone in the play, if any of you are reading this (fat chance but still, one can hope/dream)...

YOU GUYS ROCKED!!!!

AND IF I COULD GO AGAIN AND AGAIN,

I TOTALLY FREAKIN' WOULD!!!!!! :)

So here's the deal of what I did that day:

1) Woke up and smiled because "Today's the big day!"

2) Did all my chores as fast (and thoroughly!) as I could

3) Got dressed (about 8 times! That's gotta be the first time I've EVER done that!!)

4) Ate an apple (you really didn't need to know that but whatever... :P)

5) Went outside at 4:20 because my pick up was at 4:30

6) Got picked up by my ride, a green minivan that held...three people I knew and two I didn't!

People I knew: Mrs. Bauder (I babysit her kids and she invited me to come with them. Plus, not only was she was giving me a free ticket but also because I had babysat for her the day before she was going to pay for my dinner! She hadn't payed me the night before because she had forgotten to go to the bank but I told her that it was OK and that, instead of paying me in cash, could she pay for dinner instead? Because that's what i was going to use the babysitting money for anyway! lol! She agreed.), Mr. Eastman, and a guy named Wesley who I knew slightly. (I later found out that he knew me from work and that he is going out with my best friend, Mollie who had just told me about him only the day before!

Go figure! Lol!)

People I didn't know: Two guys: Elrick and Dwayne. They were both very cool guys.

7) Trip to Rochester. Nobody really talked. It was kinda like a tomb....

8) We arrived at T.G.I. Fridays. We were going to have dinner before the show.

9) I tried to figure out where to sit. I saw a girl named Amanda who I knew from the Beauty and the Beast play over the summer. I waved and was still unsure where to sit when Wesley invited me to sit with him and his friends. Turned out his friends were at the same table as Amanda was sitting! So I knew at least two people! Met everyone around the table.

One side: Wesley and me

Other side: Amanda (across from me), a girl named Amber and another girl named...Britney, I believe it was. I could be wrong.... She didn't really talk much...

We all talked and got to know each other. I found out that Amber knew Mollie too!!! She apparently met Mollie the same place Wesley did! Small world! They all went to the same school and were laughing about some teachers and asked me if I hated any of my teachers. I grinned and told them that if I hated my teacher, I'd be a dead woman! I explained that I was home schooled and that I was graduating this year, blah blah blah. We all ate, and then we went into our separate cars, promising to sit next to each other when we got there.

10) Car ride to the theater. there was much more talking this time! I guess we all just needed some food!While we were all talking we found out that we all like similar things!

Again, go figure! Lol!

11) Arrived at theatre. Found some more friends there. My good friend Emily was there! She's the one who got me crazy about RENT and so I was thrilled to see her!

Her family brought her to the show as a surprise because they knew she loved it so much!

How nice is that?! I wish my family would do that! Lol!

12) Got to our seats. I sat to the very end (aisle side to my right) and ended up next to Amber! She was sitting next to Wesley and myself so we talked for a while before the lights dimmed a bit and the show began! One thing that i noticed right away was that the pit band was ON STAGE!! they weren't in front of it! They were on stage, with the actors!

I thought "Now that's cool! That's they way it show go!" but then I remembered that some shows had many more players in the pit, so they couldn't fit them all on stage.

But it's a great concept! Very original and very very cool!

13) Intermission. Went out to hang in the lobby (How cool is that?! How many times in life do you get to say "Oh. I just hung out in the lobby?" like it happens all the time?!). Met up with Wesley, Amber, and Emily. Talked about how freakin' amazing the show was going!

We all loved it and were totally being major geeks about it!

Singing in the lobby is frowned upon, btw...lol!

Lights blinked to say "Hey! Get back in here!" The show was back on!

14) The rest of the show. Totally cried like the major dork(geek/nerd/whatever!) I am! I was so happy that I saw it yet sad that it was over. Plus the whole ending was happy/sad.

(No spoilers will be posted here! :P Go see it and you'll know!!!) Chilled in the seats for a while while "Mark" talked about how the show has been going, who the writer was, etc. Then he told u that there was a fund raiser going on. You could win a signed poster, a coffee table book all about RENT (hint, hint. A little something something for Christmas there people! *cough, cough* Just an note....*wink*) and a back stage pass for you and everyone in your group to hang with the cast and director!!!! Well, our group was freaking out and we were all, "Who's got money?!", "I wonder if they take checks!?", and "Man! If only...".

They started bidding at $200. It quickly rose. It stopped at $800. "Mark" said, "Going once...going twice...last chance...", when suddenly someone yelled, "$1,000!" Everyone gasped and applauded! "Mark" said, "Wow! Thank you! OK, going once...going twice...last chance..... Sold! Thank you very much sir!!!" Everyone freaked out and applauded! One thousand dollars for a charity for people with AIDS! That was just amazing! I was so happy even though I didn't do anything to help. I was just glad that there was that much money for those people in need.

15) Trip home. Not as quiet as the first but not as crazy as the second. Got people's email and phone numbers and promised to write/call.

All in all, it was one heck of a night and I'll (hopefully!) never forget it!

Uh Oh....

...I'm Facebook addicted!!!

Ok, here's the deal. I now have a Facebook. My mother had one for about two weeks. She liked it so much and saw that it's safe(er than other things...) so she said that my sister and I could have one!

*Cheers* *Balloons* *Confetti*

So lately I've been lookin' up friends that I haven't talk to since we moved from Ithaca in 5th grade and I've been reconnecting!!!

Plus the fact that I've been chatting with people I've loved forever (family) and friends I've known forever too!

So I'm pretty happy!

And socialized!

See, homeschoolers have friends too! Lol!

RENT

Omg! I'm going to see RENT live on Thrusday!!!!!

My new nephew!

This is Javari.

Javari is my half-sister's baby boy. Isn't he cute?!

Javari is about six months old right in this photo.

(The reason I haven't put any of his adorable pic's up is explained below...)

Vayda, Maya, Da Mudah and myself all went to see him, Angelica (my half-sister) and John (her boyfriend). I haven't seen Angelica...well, I hadn't seen her since we were both kids. I want to say about 10 years. So anyway, we finally saw her after however many years. We had a lovely time and we're going to go see her again very soon!

Horray!!!

Yay!!!!

I can blog again!!!!!

For those who don't really know me or haven't been in touch with me lately, here's why I can finally blog!

I (apparently) "destroy", "obviate", "crash", etc. my mother's computer. No matter what.

So, I have been banned.

This is why there haven't been any new stuff in my life on here.

But now....

I have a flash drive!!!!!

I can do whatever I want on my blog now!!!

*goofy grin*

So, without further ado...

my blog!

FRED!

I LOVE FRED!!!!!!!

Fred is a kid on YouTube.com (just type in "Fred").

He's awesome!!!!!!

He's just a kid who messes around, makes a video and gets about a jillion hits for each one!

My favorite has to be "Fred Gets Detention".

Go check it out!

I saw the Twilight movie!

As you can see from the title of this post, I saw the Twilight movie!

(I saw it a while ago but I haven't had time to add anything on my blog! Sry!)

It was pretty good! The producers and director could have done better though. Everything went WAY too fast but then again, in a movie you have to go fast or else people would start to lose interest (unless the did a good job with it! Ex. Harry Potter 1 + 2). the cast was pretty close too. I think that everyone was super close (except Edward. He was WAY OFF!).

Here's what I think:

Alice:
Could have been a little shorter but w/e

Emmett:
Could have been a little more muscular but then he would have popped a hernia or something! That would've sucked! lol! (He definitely could have had more lines. Did the directors READ the BOOK?!)

Jacob:

Cut the freakin' hair already! WAY TOO LONG!

Esme:

Pretty close...she's fine, I guess.

Carlise:

Was pretty awesome!

Jasper:
Was close but the hair was weird and he kinda looked constipated...

Rosealie:
Fake blond! Bleached skin! You could tottaly tell!

Bella:

Puh-leasee! That was SO not Bella!

Edward:

U-G-L-Y! So bad!

End of disscusion!

Christmaaaaaaaaas!

Hey hey hey!

Christmas is done and it was all fun but now I have to yak about what I gooootttt!!!

I got...

1) A little notebook called "A Reader's Diary" from my parents.
What this is is a notebook where you can rate the books you've read or are reading!

Cool, huh?

Inside, there was a bookmark that has the ratings on it.

2) A matching set of earrings, bracelet and necklace from my Grandma Rose!

Gorgeous or what?!

3) A whole bunch of hoop earrings from my Grandma Rose!

4) My Grandma Linda gave us each a $25 gift card to Wal-Mart so we went shopping a few days after Christmas and I got these awesome earrings on the cheap...

...and I got two movies!

I bought Robin Hood: Men In Tights and A Knight's Tale for only $10.00! That's for both of them!!!!

5) I got a check from my Grandmommy for $25 for whatever I want to spend it on!

6) I got a check for $25 from my Grandma Rose for whatever I want to spend it on!

Whoooooo!

That's it! It was an awesome Christmas and (so far) a happy New Year!

New Additions To the Family

Say a big "Hello!" to...

Sydney and Shelia!

Sydney and Shelia are sugar gliders.

Sugar gliders are natives to Austrailia, hence thier names. Lol!

Happy New Year!!!!!!!

Hey!

Just a little post here to say...

Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!

(I know it's late, I've been busy!)

Got tackle someone with a big hug and scream in their ear...

Wahooooooo!!!!!

This year, I'm not making a New Year's Resolution because I believe that they are a big waste of one's time and one's energy!

*shurgs*

That's just my opinion....

Related?

Does this not look like Pete Wentz and Brandon Urie could be cousins or something?!

Trick Or Treat!!!

Trick or Treat!

Wahoo! Another year of trick or treating has come and gone. This year I went trick-o-treatin' with my friends Emily, Cierra and Tierra. Maya and her friend Saige came with us too!

This year I didn't have a real costume, par say. I kinda just winged it! Lol! I took my mother's old prom dress (with her permission of course), an old wig that we had laying around the house, my sister's black fishnet gloves and my combat boots. Put it all together and you got...I have no idea! Lol!

Maya and Saige.

This year, Maya went as the devil. She put on this black cloak thing under a red sparkle dress. She also put on black pants because she didn't want to get cold. Add the tail and the horns and viola! You have Maya, as the devil! Lol! Saige went as Little Red Riding Hood. Complete with hood. Very cute!

My friend Emily dressed as a punk. She wore normal clothes but punked them up by wearing fake eyebrow piercing, heavy eyeliner and dark red lipstick. Cierra went as a Navy person and her sister Tierra went as a cowgirl/country star. I'm not sure which.

Here's a picture of Cierra and myself. I'm the one in blue.

So yes. Halloween was totally fun this year and we got tons more candy this year than last.

Like I always say: It doesn't matter how old you are, if you're well behaved and are enjoying yourself then go Trick-o-Treating!!!! lol!

Doggy Blues

This post is dedicated to my dog, Emma.

This was my family's dog.

She was a Jack Russel-Miniature Pincher mix,

aka "Jackie-MinPin".

Her name was Emma.

I say "was" because she's not here anymore.

She's dead.

Emma ran into the road and was hit by a car in the afternoon of July 27, 2008.
She died an hour afterwards.

I was not there when it happened.

I consider this a blessing because I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to handle it.

Plus, I'm glad that the last memories I have with her are happy and fun instead of filled with pain and sadness.

I miss her so much.

It's really wierd not having her around.

It's strange how something so small could make such a big impact and/or imprint in your life.....

Who the heck are these guys?

(In order:)

Taylor Lautner playing as Jacob Black, Robert Pattinson playing as Edward Cullen and

Kellan Lutz as Emmett Cullen.

OMG!

It's almost Nov. 21!!!!!

You're probably wondering why I'm freakin' out. Well, to answer your question...

NOV. 21 IS WHEN TWILIGHT THE MOVIE COMES OUT!!!

Lol!

Sorry for "yelling" it but I'm so excited!!!! Plus the fact that I won a ticket to go see it!!!! So now I can go see it for free and only pay for the popcorn and/or gummy bears\Skittles! Lol!

The movie is based on the first book of the best selling series Twilight which is called,

(bet you can't guess it!)

....

Twilight!

Lol!

I'm so excited and I hope that the movie does justice to the book!

*fingers crossed*

Funny Comic I found

It's called "School is hard."

(If it's too small or blurry to see, click it to enlarge.)

State Fair!

This is the front and back of the butter sculpture. It was rotating around in a giant glass refrigerator.

Wahoo!

I went to the State Fair with my friend Emily and her family!

I've never been to the State Fair before (except when I was a baby but I don't count that!) so I was super excited! Em and I went to the rides and probably rode everyone there! Even the free falling one! And we both are afraid of heights!

Anyway, we went one way and her parents went another. Em, her parents and I saw the Butter Sculpture and the state trooper show, which was so funny! We passed a hunted house and my favorite radio station's (Hot 107.9!) booth.

I had fried dough with chocolate melted on top. Man! Sooo good!

Everything was loud and fast!

There were probably thousands of people there! I kid you not!

I also got some things!

I bought some Italian Charms for my charm bracelet and I won a poster of the Jonas Brothers when I played a balloon game!

Here are some pics of stuff...

This is a sign that was near the State Trooper show we saw.

This is a giant monster that was outside of the hunted house. It would go back and forth like it was trying to grab you. And it would occasionally roar.

This guy was also outside of the haunted house. I don't know if you can see it but he had a giant (plastic) fly on his chin. It was really gross! *shudders*

I look terrified, huh? Lol!

Panic at the Disco

OmgOmgOmgOmgOmgOmgOmg!!!!!!
I'm in love!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not in love love. I have found yet another band that rocks!
(And they don't look to bad either...lol)

My bff Mollie showed me this band one day, and I loved them a.s.a.p!
They rock!

They are called

Panic At The Disco.

I don't know why they are panicking or why the are panicking at a disco but, man!

Can they can rock out!

Lol!

Like my crazy bff Mollie, I think Branden Urie is pretty hot....

(He's top right!)

Like my sister, I think Ryan Ross is cute. He's the first one there.

(But like a baby cute...he kinda looks five.....)

Anyway, hot or not, these guys rock!!!!!
\m/ >< \m/
