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.

Me vs The Big Book!

For the last year or so I have been trying to read this book,

And so far it has been winning but this summer the book wont win! I shall be victorious this year. In the past I have gotten to page 50. Yea, not good at the all. The book is 808 pages long and is broken down into parts called The [insert color name here] Pillow Box.

My daily goal is at least 20-30 pages a day. I want to go low and fully take in the book. I will finish this book this summer. It will not win, besides the book is watching me.

I love the cover art by the way. More tomorrow I am super sleepy but I will keep you updated on twitter and here to let you know what page I am on.

This girl is sleepy..good night or good morning.



Tweet tweet and Woof woof!

Hi guys I just wanted to write a quick blog to let you know that I started a twitter page. if you wanna follow me and tweet and stuff I'm up for it. I don't always have to blog and twitter is a always logged into my cell phone.

https://twitter.com/#!/ushi_i_am

I only a few girls like us but that's only because its not that many 'girls' around.

Hopefully I'll see you guys on twitter and I am very happy for my little family of blog followers. It really means a lot that you guys and read and comment. It brings a smile to my geeky little face.

Also my moms said that we have a pet and I decided to get a husky and name it Rumor, after my nintendog.

Pride and Ponytails

Hey guys, its almost lunch period so I thought hey, why not blog? So here I am. The only problem is that I have no idea what to blog about.

Oh, I could talk about how hot it is in here! Long hair and heat don't mix and mines is almost sweeping the floor. I don't know how to braid, so I cant even do pull a Rapunzel from Disney's Tangled and have cute little kids super braid it because there isn't any little kids around. The only one that can braid that is willing to do my hair Anais but she has been super busy with leading the LGBT program at our school. I'm not LGBT but my moms falls into that family. So I am a member of the club in support of equal love and rights for all. Sometimes I wanna cut my hair but I know I would miss it when its gone. I could always ask Charlie to braid it but then ill have to be around Axel and lately I have been having weird feelings about him that need to pushed into the bottom of my closet. He is after all my best friends brother after all. That's kinda gross.

Ugh lets change subjects please.

Oh have you seen the trailers for Brave!! I have and I am super excited. But I will admit the Japanese trailer (which I barely understood with out the subtitles) was way better then the North America trailer. I think its pretty awesome that Pixar has a movie where the female lead looks kick-butt. And a huge plus she is a princess that doesn't seem to be chasing down a guy. A+ for that! She has the coolest hair and she is a archer and she has a sword. Kinda like another fictional hero like mines, Fionna the Human from Adventure Time and Flame Princess.

Wow this is getting pretty long gotta go its taco bar today.

Twins

I didn't run into Lux yesterday in school but I did hang out with Anais and her twin Alana. They are so different in many ways but they seem similar at the same time. I just noticed this yesterday but they both eat the same. For lunch we had fries and pizza they both eat their pizza backwards, crust first! Weird huh? They also dip their pizza and fries in honey mustard. That was bit gross but they looked at me like I was crazy when I dipped my french fries in the strawberry milkshake.

They are both girly girly girls, its nothing wrong with that. They both love pink and zebra print. Alana even gave her twin a duck tape wallet. Its pretty awesome looking. I am heading to the gallery tomorrow to look for some more duck tape.

Alana keeps her brown hair straight and Anais has wavy hair that is dark. Alana likes shopping in stores for her clothes and Anais raids her mom closet for old clothes.

Having a twin looks awesome, you would always have someone to talk to if you get scared or if you are worried. I'm a only child. I kinda wish I had a sister or a brother. But right now I like it just being my moms and me.

(the) New Kid In School.

I didn't tell you yet did I? There is a new girl in school. I don't know that much about her besides the little we learned about her in creative writing class. Even though we are in different grades my school has all of the electives by skill level not grade. So I'm advanced in writing so I take some writing classes with the upper class men.

Well every time we get a new student we have to write a essay about the topic the teacher gives us. This time it was family. I quickly wrote down a page long paper on my moms and what little I knew about my birth parents.

But here's the kicker we had to go up in front of the class and read the paper, as much as we wanted. I went first, I read up until the part where I started talking about my birth parents. A few of the upper class men laughed softly as I spoke with pride about my same sex parents. I should be used to it by now but I guess I'm not.

A few more students went up and read to us about their families until it was Lux's turn. She stood in front of the class with her paper held down by her chest. She had on leggings and ballet flats, she had on a purple knit hat. I kinda like her tee shirt, it had a funky graphic on it.

She started talking and I swore I was only one this focused. She just looked so calm like she had done this a million times. I remembered my first time doing this, I was scared out of my boots. Not her, she seemed calmed and relaxed, like this was second nature to her.

She spoke of many things, of things most kids our age keep buried deep inside of our closets. Secrets and truths that most people don't even tell their diaries let alone a whole class of 30 kids.

Lux pulled the paper down and sat it on the teachers desk and traveled back to her seat.

I'm sure what it is about her but I know I want to learn more about her trouble past and how in the world did she get so brave...I could learn a thing or two from her.

Summer in April? Also Im a bad mom!

Yes you read that right.

I swear last night it felt like Summer in April here in Philly. It was so hot I had to turn my AC on! That's crazy, in April! Normally no matter the weather, even if its hot out I sleep with a thin sheet on. Nope, not last night.

Oh, I know his is a bit off topic but I found my 3DS! I thought I lost it. It was burried in the bottom of my closet inside of my hoodie pocket. Dont even ask how it got there, Im not even sure how. I swear it has a life of its own.

It turns out Im a terrible mother! :( Well Im a terrible puppy mother. My puppies were all dirty, hungry and chubby. Let me explain. Im a huge Nintendo fan and dog lover so I love Nintendogs. I brought the newest Nintendogs, Nintendogs + Cats in 3D. Let me just say that the puppies are cute so are the kittens but the kittens hate the dogs and they just sit in the house. Whereas the dogs you get to take on walks and enter in fun mini games where you can earn money to buy treats, house upgrades and furniture. And on top of them doing nothing they are so stanking expensive. Ill get more into Nintendogs some other blog entry. I like to keeep my blogs nice and short.

See ya later,
xoxo gossip girl
Just kidding, I hate that show.

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

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.
