Ok, here's my gross story of the day... (well, yesterday)

So I'm at this gas station in La Mesa (by Chris' house) and as I'm waiting for my gas, the lady next to me pointed out an iguana on the cement block next to the pump. she picked it up and because it wasn' moving I thought it was plastic, but then she turned it over and the leg was peeling and decaying and she pulled it off and then said, "Nope, not fake." and then put it back down. No joke. ya. My life seems to have many random occurances like these. So just to share one with you.

Well i just got back from Tiffany's (sp) party about a half of an hour early b/c my parents wanted me home @ 11 and its not. It drives me crazy when I come home earlier than my curfew (sp). It was a lot of fun though. Good dancing. Powerline. Awesome. I really hope i can go to Joy's party tomorrow but my mom is going through this stage where she thinks im being irresponsible by going to partys and stuff and not working on SAT's and school. Oh well. It will be what it will be.

So I opened a bank account this last weekend. My mother informed my I was the last person of my age to open a bank account. Thank you mother. (and no. There is no tention between me and my mother right now. I love her dearly. ) So now I have an ATM card. Yipee.

Um... I think my life is pretty boring other than that. It was fun to see everyone from Alice this weekend and I will probably be around to film tech week when I don't have rehearsal for Joseph. Very fun. OK. Going to bed soon. This is so sad. i have no life. I'm going to bed before 11. O well, I guess at least i'll be rested for church and homework!

P.S. Smileys are fun!

well, for my b-day I got this card from my grandma and grampa (I call them Nana and Papa) but anyways, it really made me think and i liked it so here's what it said...

someday, grandson,

you will become a "sir"-

the world will expect you

to wear ties

pay taxes

and take care of your lawn.

people will try to sell you insurance and major appliances.

YOU may feel the urge to carry an umbrella "just in case"

and go to bed early on saturdays.

you'll hear your favorite songs on the elevator. (open the card here)

so take it from someone who knows.

someone who loves you-

there'll never be another time in your life like this.

be happy.

Laugh until it hurts. dance. dream.

do good stuff. ask questions. stop for pizza. order extra-large...

play ball. hang out with friends.

find something that matters and

be a part of it

the world is full of "sirs."

but there's only one you,

only one now.

That may have been the longest and dumbest entrie ever but whatever. i thought the card was cool. so i'm leaving for mamoth in the morning and don't know when i'll be back cuz we have the week off of school. very exciting. c ya

O MY GOSH!!! I am aching in pain. I have never moved my body so much in three hours. Joseph rehearsals with Holly are InTeNsE!!! Sophie and I are husband and wife (in the play) and we decided that we won't be able to move tomorrow so if any of you don't see me at school don't wonder why.

Wellp, ill close up for the night and see if I can make it to my bed, otherwise i might just have to sleep in this chair. Soooooo sore!

Yesterday was my Birthday! I'm seventeen now. That sounds so old! Anyways, I had a very nice day. I woke up to Cinamin Rolls in bed (a family tradition) and then we wnet to church which was far from a normal sunday as everyone was in big church and we did this family bonding thing where we made little animals out of Crayola play-dou that were supposed to be the animals on the arc and the little kids led worship and it was a lot of fun. then I went to lunch with mi familia at Robertos. Then I went to Chris' house for a bit, then to the movies where we saw racing stripes which was a mix of Babe and Seabiscut and it wasn't that good but then we went to Lido's and It was soooooo good. then we came home and played Cranium Turbo edition and then I stayed up for the cast list to be posted for Joseph and I am Benjamin and the Butler. Yay! It was an amazing Birthday even though it was really simple.

I should probably do homework b/c tonight is the first rehearsal. C ya!
