Pin Pon Dasshu fail

  Today I made some Taiyaki (fish shaped 'sweet cake' filled with a filling like custard cream or red bean paste) when I got in from school. I'm a huge sweets person so I ate most of them with the help of Zinnie and Charlie. We made a bunch but still had a lot left after we ate. Charlie, the joker of the group said that we should go ding dong ditching in her neighborhood. Ding Dong Ditch or Pin Pon Dasshu is when you ring a door bell and then you run off as fast as you can. So me being me surely wanted in on this fun. Zinnia not so much, she didn't feel like it was right to ring someone's bell without really needing anything. She thought that maybe we can leave some custard cream tayaki on the porch before we run off so that the person gets a sweet surprise when they answer the door.

We packed up several bags of the sweets and changed into our tennies and tied our long hair into ponytails before we started our childlike prank. We quietly tipped toed out of the house and acrossed my lawn. Our first target was a few houses down from ours, Mr. Johnson. Trying to hide behind the bushes at the foot of his house was difficult. We all weren't 10 anymore and our giggles didn't help. Charlie climbed over me and handed a small plastic zip lock baggie to Zinnia. She explained that all she had to is drop the bag on the porch and ring the bell (pin pon) and run as fast as you can (dasshu). With a nod of agreement Zippy Zinnie grabbed the bag and started to run across the street and up to Mr. Johnson's yard. I looked away for a second at Charlotte who couldn't stop laughing. By time I looked up Zinnia was already back across the street and looking at me as she pointed at Mr. Johnson's house. We watched as she opened the door and looked around confused at his empty porch. When he finally noticed the sweets he picked them up and smiled.

"Your turn Miss Okazaki, " Charlotte handed me a bag, it was still warm and smelled of sweet vanilla cream. "You have to do the Valentine's house." Darn, I was stuck with doing my cousin's house. She has the loudest and oldest sounding porch in the neighborhood. Since I never turn down a prank, I clutched onto the bag and crawled out from behind the bush and started to walk down the street to her house. It's hard being a ninja when it's tons of leaves all over the sidewalk.

I started running up the street to her house but a twig laying on the ground quickly ruined that. My knees was okay,  due to the fact I was wearing sweat pants. I rolled over onto my back and rested for a second before I got up and ran carefully to her house.  The porch groaned as I tip toed on it. 
I heard her dog barking loudly so I quickly dropped the bag and rang the bell.  I heard footsteps so I ran really really fast away from the house.  Panting heavily I fell onto the grass beside the girls when I caught up to them. I was the slowest girl so when I got back to them I seen that the bag of Taiyaki was empty. Man,  I'm slow.

After a while we headed back to my house to warm up with some hot chocolate. Yummy yummy.

Whoa this was a long post,  sorry.

Ps- I'm moving on from the picture thief, if she wants to be a thief then so be it.

Sick Partay!

I am not feeling so well so I am up in my room at 2:30 with the covers wrapped around me. I think I have a cold which sucks because tomorrow the girls wanted to have a pre-birthday party for me but that wont happen. Maybe they might come over tomorrow?

I hope so I could really use the pick me up.

Anais did come by over earlier with Zinnia. They came with gifts. Anais let me hold on to Socko and Zinni brought me some chicken and rice soup in my panda bento box. How did she know its my favorite? They even stayed over for a few hours and we sat around watching Degrassi.

I have to get sleep, I will try to write more tomorrow.

The kid who got a job at Christmas.

Wow its been a while since I wrote here.

Ive been busy with the holidays and havent had time to post her.

First, Christmas was awesomesauce. I got alot of really nice gifts. I got some clothes, 2 new dolls and a shiny new superman laptop cling. But wait I dont have a laptop right? Oh no my cyber friend I do have one. I have a new laptop that is perfect for my superman cling.

So since I have the freedom of wireless computing I should be able to write more (hey who knows it I may even get some blog followers) so my friends will have something boss to read, yup that was 70's slang. Just got done watching like 4 hours of That 70's show.

Now onto what my friends got for the holidays.

Anais is a very lucky duck she convinced my Uncle (her dad) to let her convert the 2nd half of the families basement at her house into a sewing room.
Zinnia's parents planned a trip for her and her family to go to India next year. She was sooooo happy because she has been there twice in her whole life.

Charlie got a new cell phone. I think its a iPhone. She hasnt put it down so Im unsure what type of phone it is.

Axel got a job. Yea, a job. His mom and dad (Charlie's parents also) said that they are sick of buying him gas and paying his insurance so after the holidays he starts his job at his dads factory. They also got him a new guitar.

Well I hate to to type a run but Charlie is standing over me texting away and I hate that clinking of the on screen keyboard.

Have a save and Happy New Year

How I saved Miku with math!

Sorry I havent written in a while. I havent been feeling very well lately.

My wisdom teeth are coming in and it hurts, badly. It's been two days and Im ready to just pull them out but mom (Harumi) says that its going to hurt and that I should be brave and deal with the pain. She knows how much I want to keep all four of them.

So since it like a horse is hitting me in the mouth everytime my top and bottom teeth meet I really cant eat anything or talk. So I stayed home today and ate oatmeal all day.

My friends came by after school today. Zinnia brought me a grass shake. I think she got it from the new vegan place. I nicely took it and sipped it. It tasted pretty good, unlike how I thought it would taste. Charlie brought me a scarf. How sweet of her. She said that Axel helped her make it. Im not sure if that makes me like it more or less knowibg that Axel touched it. My cousin, Anais gave me my homework and soup from her dad (my uncle). I wasnt hungry so I didnt eat it just yet. But she made me start my homework. She hung Hatsune Miku out the window by her twin (pig)tails.

What was suppose to do? I love my plushy Miku. Mom got it all the way from Japan. So she means the world to me. I quickly jumped out the bed and ran to the window grabbing Miku. I sat her down on my desk and sat in my chair and started my math homework.

Which is what Im suppose to doing. My mom is coming, gotta go.

Tacos at the Gallery

Im happy to report that thier has been no more kissing on my locker, that I know of.

Anyways today I went to the Gallery at Market East. Its marketed as the 'Urban' mall. So thats what we call it, the Urban mall or the Gallery.

My moms finally let me go to the mall with Zinnia, Anais, Charlie and her brother Axel. So we decided to go the Urban mall. But first we had to take the bus luckily after we (I) whined to Axel he gave us a ride and had to hang around to babysit (she didnt like that at all) Charlie.

When we finally got there it was a loaded with teens. We went to Charlie's favorite store, Five & Below. Shes a accessories lover. As soon as we entered the store she made a nose dive to the scarfs and tote bags. Zinnia ran to the sports section for some Eagles gear (her dad is a huge eagles fan) A rainbow zebra printed pillow stole Anais away from us which left me alone with Mr. Im-to-cool-for-hair-cuts.

I mean his hair is so long and messy brown that I swear he cant see sometimes. Its a miracle that he can even drive.

Meanwhile after a hour and 75 dollars later we the store with two blue bags.

Anais suggested that we go to bath and works next. Zinni and Charlie agreed and they all looked at me, they knew I hate the way that store smell. It smells way TOO good in there. When all of the scents mixed it smells really bad.

I explained why I hated Bath and Body works as we walked there but they didnt listen they were way to busy being teenaged girls and giggling at something.

I waited on the bench outside the store while they shopped. In a half-hour they left the store and went to the food court I was craving for some mexican food so I went to the taco bell. I brought like 3 tacos and had a large soda.

Everyone ended up going to different places to eat in the food court. Zinnia had a greek salad, Anais had general tao chicken, Charlie had a slice of cheese pizza and Axel had a burger, fries and a shake.

After we all got finished eatting we all when to gamestop. The girls didnt want to come in but Axel did. Side note he has really good taste in games. Maybe he isnt that bad?

We each got a few games, I got The Other M, Twightlight Princess and Sims 3 (again). He picked up Modern Warfare and Skyward Sword. He doesnt know it but Im soooo borrowing both of his cames.

We made a few more laps around the store and made a few of those picture key chains before grabbing a milkshake and leaving to go home.

I secretly picked up gifts for my friends which is why this story is missing stores we went to and what I got isnt listed.

Im off to wrap them now and slip them under the tree.
