Away for a While

7/10/2010

Hi everyone! I just wanted to tell you that for a week (and repeat again), I will not be blogging. I have to get camping and there's no Internet or any use for a computer anyway, so yeah.

Here's the deal. I'll be blogging by paper and keeping track of everything and taking pictures and it'll be cool. I'll enter all of the posts as one gigantic week-post. It will be called... Chose D'enorme. P.S. The "E" in "D'enorme" should have an accent on it, but I just spend twenty minutes trying to copy/paste/ALT/Configure my computer so I could put the little ` over that very E, but it failed tremedously.

ANYWAY, Chose D'e`norme means "Huge Thing". I tried stuff like "Big Event" and "Large Post", but they were boring. Huge Thing is WAY cooler.

So anyway, there's going to be a stopping in blogging for a little while, only a week, and then it'll happen again, but I'll have a day to enter my blogs from paper. Here's a simple way to put it:

I leave and write down my blogs. After five days (or six, maybe), I enter a week's blogs. After that, I go back and it'll be another week of anxious waiting for you all.

Abby, Aardvarks, ad Unneccesary Laughter

7/10/2010

So guess where I am?! ABBY'S HOUSE!!!

We went to see Eclipse and I laughed a few unneccesary times. Here's a list of a few things I laughed at for no reason at the hilarious movie and a few people around us.

1. A Lady Falling. She tripped on a stair or something, but it was funny.
2. The Graphics. The graphics in this movie are aful, in which case, making them super hilarious. I reccomend seeing this badly graphimatized movie.
3. Hitting Things. Bella hits something at one point in the movie and I thought it was funny. It might not have been Bella, but it was obviously funny.
4. Punching Faces and Breaking Hands. Bella broke her hand while punching Jacob. It was funny.
5. "I'm Hotter than You!!". Jacob told Edwart that he was he was hotter than him because Bella was freezing in the blizzards of the moutain tops and Edwart couldn't help her so Jacob came and kept her warm, but he told Edward that he was hotter than him. I thought this was humorous.

Home for Now

7/09/2010

So I'm home in Nashville for a few days, literally. I'm only here for two days now. There's a few things that are going to go on while I'm here, though.

First, I've got to go shopping. I don't like shopping, or at least, not much. There's always trying on clothes, finding the clothes, and all the walking around the same thing four-thousand times. Well, luckily, there will be minimal clothes shopping and lots of camp shopping. We'll probably get stuff like ponchoes, tiny Germ-X's, tissues, and disposable cameras. We've got most of the stuff, like clothes, socks, shoes, bug spray, sunscreen, ect. So yeah.

Second, I get to see one of my best friends (she is my best friend in Nashville), maybe, and go on a boat! I love boats. We're going on a pontoon (pontune?) boat. IT HAS A SLIDE!!! It has to be exciting.

Third, I have to end this post.

Five Hours to a Good, Southern Place

7/08/2010

Blog Entry: 7/08/2010

I've been on the plane for an hour and twenty minutes, about. I don't know were we are exactly, but I'm guessing it's somewhere around Nevada, or somewhere off to the east of it by a bit.

I bought the book Catching Fire, the sequel to The Hunger Games. It's pretty awesome. (**SPOILER**) Peeta proposed to Katniss for publicity! (Well, that and to express his true, undying love for her that clicked in his beautiful, boyish mind from the moment he focused on her starving body...)

So yeah. Time: (WA Time) 12:26

------------------------------------

Okay, I was wrong. Apparently, we're taking the route going east from Washington aand then heading south after a certain point is reacher. We're in Montana right now...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

1:44 PM
We're two hours away and my bladder is slowly slipping away from me. Hopefully, it will last another half of the flight.

--------------------------

2:43 PM
There's less than half an hour left in our flight. We haven't died yet, though Mallory has passed out, as well as I had.

----------------------

2:52 PM
Descending!

--------------

This was as far as I went while blogging aboard the plane. We got off the plane at about six o'clock (Central Time). My iPod's clock might have been off a few hours. Where is Cupertino, U.S.A.? GOOGLE! Cupertino is in California. I wish I knew how to make music notes...

Anyway, yeah, we're home. Katie's right here beside me. (Katie is my cat, in case you weren't aware.) (*No Picture Available of Katie Other than Ones That are Already Posted...)

I'll post some plane pictures and, if we took any other good pictures while in Washington, I'll post them too.

A Long Plane Ride to My Own Bed

7/08/2010

So I just had a short conversation with my Grandpa. Since it's midnight, almost 1 A.M., he suggested all of us just staying up all night since none of us were alseep anyway and then sleeping on the plane (since it's FIVE HOURS!). I told him this:

"Well, I'm working my way there right now, but either way, if I stay up all night and not sleep or stay up really late and sleep a little, I'll still be able to sleep on the plane, so everything's working out for me."

I just thought I should say that while it was fresh in my mind.

Anyway, I'm leaving TECHNICALLY today, since, as I said before, it's already past midnight. The flight's at eleven... so we're getting up at six thirty. Yeah, but it'll work out. We get up at six thirty, leave at seven, get to the airport by eight, and then we have three hours to go through luggage swap-a-ma-diggy and security, eat breakfast (or lunch, depending on what time it is after the luggage swap-a-ma-diggy), and then have about an HOUR to wait to board the plane which will probably be filled with tears, excitement, and a variety of seasonal fruits.

Also, in case you were wondering about the title, I really want to go home for two days (and camp) because I'll get my own bed again! Yup. A fourteen-year-old, almost thirteen-year-old, and an eleven-year-old are all squishing together every night for bed in a queen-sized blow-up matress in a lofty room that is SUPER hot right now because Everett has hit record-high heat today at 80-some degrees.

How to Make Kory's Head Explode

7/07/2010

Early, early this morning (around 2), I learned how to make Kory's head explode. I thought I should share with you.

How to Make Kory's Head Explode: A Few Simple Steps

1. Talk loudly and obnoxiously. Apparently this gets on a few people's nerves sometimes.

2. Play "Two-Person Duck-Duck-Goose". To be even more annoying and obnoxious, play "One-Person Duck-Duck-Goose".

3. The Point System. Every time he swears and/or says something stupid, take away about 7,000 points.

4. Make a "How to Make Kory's Head Explode" list on your blog.

5. Pet his head-fuzz.

Movie Madness and Below-Average Blogs

7/07/2010

Okay, about the "Below-Average" in "Below-Average Blogs", I just needed a "B" word for blogs as I did an "M" word for Movies.

Lets begin, shall we?

Okay, so lately, I've watched a lot of old Disney/childhood movies. I watched Mosters Inc. not too long ago and Madeline on the same night (technically, morning). So now, I attempted to watch the first episode of Pokemon, but the nice-quality episodes didn't have all of it, which SUCKED. So now I'm watching Toy Story 2. I'll be seeing Toy Story 3, hopefully, before it goes out of theaters, which won't be soon. Just look at Avatar. It was in theaters for a few months. (It was awesome, if you haven't seen it!)

--------------------------------------

Below-Average:Momentary Pause in Production::In-Frequent:Not Happening Often

So, what I mean (if that made no sense, which I'm pretty sure it didn't), is that I won't be making any blogs for about a week and then I'll have a long blog, and then it'll happen again one more time.

I'm sorry, but I won't have a computer, or Internet, for that matter, for a week. I'll be in Ashland City doing some super important business. That business would be camping. I'll be at a Girl Scout camp for a week pretty soon. I'll have a day off from it at the end and then I'll be right back to it again for another week. That'll be about it. Just to let you know though, the blogs at the end of the week will be super long, most likely, because they will be about everything I did within the week. Also, I will work very hard on transfering them to here, because I'll be typing them all from a notepad. I do this with my iPod blogs, too, because I can't get it to transfer, but whatever.

That's about it, and in honor of Pokemon, I've chosen a Pokemon quote for my ending.

Skate Deck, McDonalds, and Airplanes

7/06/2010

Hello again, it's 9:20 PM in Nashville, so it's seven, here. Yay, numbers!(?)

So anyway, today we FINALLY did something! Even though we're leaving the day after tomorrow, that is. We went to the Skate Deck. It's about half of a mile from my grandparent's house. It's not far. My mom used to always go there and stay ALL DAY. They used to know the owner, but he's not the same dude as before and by that, I mean there's a different owner of the same place. Well, we were there (we, being my two sisters, and I) with Kory and his sister who is my age, Kiera. We skated, stared at people who skated, laughed at falling people, laughed at Kory who fell and nearly slammed his face into the wall, and ate super-hot French fries that took ten minutes to get.

It was all really fun, but I think the Skate Deck isn't as good as the Skate Center, even though the distance from here to the Skate Deck is less than five minutes and the distance from our house in Nashville to the Skate Center is about half-an-hour.

----------------------------------------------------------------

We went to McDonalds afterwards. I had Chicken McNuggets because I'm cool like that. (P.S. The Happy Meal toys for the Airbender movie that's coming out are all super violent!!) Anyway, McDonalds. I had my camera with me since I took some pictures and a dark video at the Skate Deck, I decided to capture a moment of Madison. I think I should change that. A Moment of Madison. See what I did there?

ANYWAY^2, here's the picture:

Yup. There's Madison sippin' on a McDonalds drink. (P.S. I'm not advertising, I promise!)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So we're leaving in two days. After those two days, I'll have two days at home before I venture off the Ashland City. There, I'll be going to camp to ride a few horses and possibly fall off (which has happened to me before because of a rabbit...). So yeah, I'll have very few days that I will use to (1) buy a few extra things to take along with me and (2) wash everything in my suitcase right now so I won't even have to worry about packing clothes.

So yeah.

Like Five Seconds Ago...

7/06/2010

Okay, I just posted like five seconds ago, but there's some stuff that (1) I needed to add and didn't feel like actually editing, and (2) needed to point out.

1. While going to McDonalds, via car, we jammed out to this sorta old song called... I don't know what the actual title is. I guess it's "Knock Three Times". It's a song, that's sort of stalker-ish, I might add, but it's really good. Madison did this round-the-world kind of thing with her arm, like a cheerleader thing, for the "Knock Three Times(!) on the ceiling if you WA-ANT me!" and I tried it and I sort of punched myself in the nose! Seriously! No blood though. Sorry if you wanted me to get hurt, but I didn't. Sorry.

2. There's a few new things, not really a few, but there's some stuff! First, if you started following me on the blog like two days ago when it started (it started a few weeks ago, but it's not very old!!), all of the stuff on the edges were like "Followers" "Blog Archives" "Profile", so I changed it to "Some Crazies that Found Me", "Some Old Stuff You Might Find Interesting" and "Me, Myself, and I - What I'm About". I just thought you should know. Also, below my posts, now, there are some little buttons, three of them. They say "Awesome" "Pretty Good" and "Okay", I think. I know the first and last ones are right, but the "Pretty Good" might be something else. I dont' know. I never edit this stuff...
But anyway, yeah, rate my videos and if you leave me a comment I'll be super happy!

Quotes anyone? You? Okay.

Midnight McDonalds

7/06/2010

So at exactly midnight, we were in the car. We were hungry and with Grandpa at midnight, so what else were we gonna do? Sit around and wait for the world to set off some sort of volcanic eruption that happened to make chocolate shakes with fries stuck all in shoot up from the carpeted, cuddly floors of my grandparent's snuggly Everett home? No! We were going to McDonalds because why? WE WANTED TO!!

Also, we're going skating tomorrow with Kory and his awesome sister, Keira.

(**Hey.**) This quote will be explained if you read past it. Just to let you know.*

**When I say "Staring across the Confederate lines", I mean they were at war. There was another army coming at them... I think you can see where that went...

Five Dollars Richer/I Could'a Won Jeopardy

7/05/2010





Here is the story of how I became five dollars richer.





I was sitting in the most comfortable chair in the world and my grandpa come in the room.





"I just wanted to let you know that I'm sorry for any time that I bugged you or made you embarassed," he says.





"Well, I accept your apology," I reply.





"Thank you, then."





"You're welcome. That'll be five bucks."





"Well you're in luck! I have five dollars!"





And that's the story of how I became five dollars richer. Here's a picture:





So yeah. I don't know what I was doing with the whole "lookin' up" type thing, but whatever. There's Abraham Lincoln in my picture. We're best friends.

--------------------------------------------------------------

In other news, I think I could have won Jeopardy today. It's the kid's special thing for the week and I got a lot of answers right, sort of. I knew the last question (answer, technically) right. It was the easiest thing ever if you know what koalas are. The "answer" was something like "Born in (enter African country here), these were the first two twins of this species born named 'Euka' and 'Lyptous'". The two wrong guesses were Zebras and Platipi. The one who won was the only girl on there. I forget her name, but that could have been me.

A Piece of the Ukulele Chronicles: My Wants of a Ukulele

7/04/2010

So I've been thinking about my Ukulele Chronicles a lot lately. I REALLY want a ukulele! It's getting kind of crazy. I've searched ukuleles, I've watched videos on them, I just want one! It's super weird on how I got into this. It was mostly because of Christofer Drew. He plays uke, and I thought it was cool. That's about it.

Ukuleles are kind of a trend now, if you hadn't noticed. Everyone plays one now! It's like I won't be any different from other people, but it's not like every day you walk down the street and see seven people just sitting around, playing ukulele for cash. No, you see guitars. You don't go to your kid's recitals and they all play ukulele. No, it's piano (or guitar now). It's weird. They're popular, but they aren't super popular.

I don't know. Just put the quote up!

"Now everybody's got a crazy notion of their own. Some like to mix with a crowd, some like to be alone. It's none of their business, as far as I can see, but every time I go out, the people stare at me with me little ukulele in me hand."

Blog Sandwich

7/05/2010

Hello again, Internet(ers?). Sorry about the two-day delay in blogs. I've just been at Carman's little cabin out in Index. It was fun.

Here's the deal, the Blog Sandwich will work because I've got two days' worth of blogs with me on my iPod. Please excuse the dates, for they are not the dates of today, which is stated above, obviously.

Blog Entry: 7/03/2010

So we're at Carman's cabin (again, GREAT hotdogs**). We saw the Big Tree and the Big Rock and they both seriously fit the title. One big tree right there, my friends. (There might eventually be a picture here, but I doubt it, sorry.)

We hung out with this little girl whose about eight or so, actually seven. She's super full of energy and a bit annoying. Worse than ME annoying. It was pretty awful, but she's gone now. Her parents lost a dog, too. It's the most adorable dog ever and it was startled by some pre-Fourth fireworks. I hope they find it. I'm praying for them.

P.S. They found him!

Blog Entry: 7/04/2010

Happy Fourth, everybody! It was a fun day. There were limited fireworks in the sky, but we had a variety of other ones including poppers, sparklers, smoke bombs, and other ground objects (like these super awesome tank things that shot flaming bullets!!). I thought they were cool.

Galena, the dog, will be very much burnt tomorrow. Every firework was threatened by Galena, and vice versa. She annoys the crap out of everyone with fetch, rubbing her wet pelt on everyone, and just getting in the way, but she's a great dog. A chocolate lab, in case you were wondering.

We had a lot of fun, and it was amazing.
