Today has been a long day. Remember my little thing about sleep yesterday? Well, I spent about half of today sleeping, and I'm still tired. I'm actually kind of thankful that I'll be back to my normal sleep schedule tomorrow.
I feel like I accomplished absolutely nothing today other than homework. I honestly haven't done much other than that. I did film a video that I'll hopefully have up in an hour or so. (The footage is converting at the moment.) I haven't really gotten to read or anything today, but I plan on taking The Fault in Our Stars to work with me tomorrow and maybe even school. Let's hope I don't start crying in front of people...
I was trying to think of something else to write, but then I got distracted and just left this sitting open. I've been on Tumblr all day. I hadn't had time to get on Tumblr for quite a while, and I hadn't even gotten on Saturday or Sunday. I actually think it's to blame for my lack of motivation to do anything else today. I just barely got my homework done early thanks to Tumblr.

Sleep and I Don't Get Along
Why is it that I tend to be the most crankiest on the days I actually get a decent amount of sleep? Sleep and I just have an all around crazy relationship. I'm always tired, no matter what I do. That being said, sleeping in was great, and I felt great when I woke up. It wasn't until later that I felt tired again. I'm starting to wonder if there's something wrong with me.
I managed to watch both Naruto and How I Met Your Mother today. Plus, I also wrote a bit, and I'm going to work on prereading a fanfiction for someone after I finish this post. After that, I plan on reading some more of an awesome Harry Potter fanfic that I was reading earlier. Other than that, my day hasn't really consisted of much.

The End of a Long Weekend
This has been a hectic weekend, and it's not even over yet! I filmed a video about my day yesterday that will be up in a few days, so I won't talk about that again. Today has been a lot less eventful, but I've spent a good portion of my day getting homework that I neglected doing in the car yesterday. (It gets dark way too early at this time of the year.)
Other than that I have to go to high school religious ed later to help my dad with that as a table leader. I'm excited because my dad's going to show a clip from Return of the King that deals with the lesson. My sister and her friend weren't happy about that at all, but that just makes it even more amusing to me. I have to get my homework done though, since I don't want to do it when I come home. I'm almost done, so it shouldn't take too much longer.

I Could Never be a Sales Person
I love Saturdays. Sleeping and not having to go to school is the best. I haven't done much today other than read and work on some homework. I have to write notes on a chapter of AP U.S. history this weekend, and I'm about halfway done at the moment.
After posting yesterday, I remembered that there were two things I forgot to mention in that post. I decided I'd just post about them today. Now that it's almost a day later, I'm not sure if I want to post about them or not since it feels kind of pointless now, but here we go anyway.
I was in the bathroom at school the other day when two of my old best friends walked in. There was someone else in the bathroom, but they were actually in one of the stalls, which meant the three of us were just kind of there at the sinks. As soon as the walked in my awkward self got a little nervous. I've barely spoken to one of them since middle school, and I still fill kind of weird around the other one even though we talked in class all last semester. We started up a conversation though. It was awkward, but not quite as bad as I expected. To most people reading this, this may sound random and unimportant, but these two were my best friends for a really long time (in addition to Summer, who still is one of my best friends. Our group kind of split in half I guess...). It's just so weird whenever I see them now. I miss them, but at the same time all three of us have changed so much that it's just not the same. Yeah...
I also forgot to mention that Ji and I went around selling yearbook ads again yesterday. This is getting kind of stressful. We have seven businesses between us, and we only managed to sell one ad last Friday. We sold another one yesterday. One business told us they're definitely not buying one, and there's another business that we're almost positive isn't because they're really indecisive. Out of the other three, one we just managed to find yesterday, and they're thinking about it. I can't find addresses for the other two business anywhere. They're no where online, in the phone book, and no one I ask has heard of them. I'm going to have to talk to the yearbook teacher Monday because I'm not sure what to do about them.
Before I wrap up this post, I just want to share a cute little scene I saw earlier today. At about noon, I went looking for my little brother to see what he wanted for lunch. I found him on the ground outside just reading a book with both of our dogs beside him. It was so random but adorable. I looked kind of embarassed when I found him. I think he was just taking them out so the could go to the bathroom, but he took a book to read while he was waiting and lost track of time or something. I'm not really sure what happened, but it was cute.

Busy Weekend
The blog post you're reading right now was written over a kind of long period of time. I wanted to write about this, but I didn't have time to just sit down and write, so I wrote bits and pieces of it whenever I could. Part of it was written Sunday, and part of it was written Monday.
This weekend has been extremely busy. On Friday we had a social after school. The idea was that the new kids could meet new people and stuff like that. We got free drinks, and then everyone basically grouped into their normal groups. I don't even remember seeing any of the new kids, and the freshmen seemed to stay in one large group toward the entrance of the gym. Ji and I were supposed to get quotes for the yearbook. It didn't go to well since no one really wanted to be there. We got a total of three quotes. My sister wrote down something completely random that had nothing to do with the social, and my friend Haley and another boy just made stuff up that they didn't mean. The only good part was getting out of class.
As we were walking to our lockers after the social, Ji mentioned that she wanted to do something after school. I was reluctant at first because I had tons of homework, but then my sister showed up too. Needless to say, Ji came over. We made brownies and had a lot of fun. (Even if Ji and I think the brownies made us sick.) After a while, my mom, brother, and sister were going shopping, and Ji and I eventually decided to go along too. We went to Factory Card Outlet first because my sister wanted stuff for her birthday party. Ji and I may or may not have played with some toy swords. After that, my mom and brother went to Target while Ji, Regina, and I walked down to some craft store that I don't remember the name of. Ji and I kind of ditched Regina and just wandered aimlessly around the store. Regina took forever, so at some point, Ji and I decided to go next-door to Petsmart. We looked at all of the animals, but we definitely stared at the cats for the longest. They are so adorable! I wanted to adopt them all. There were two kittens running around with each other, and another two were laying on top of each other. They were all absolutely adorable. We eventually made it back to Target, and we just kind of looked through clothes and other stuff until it was time to leave.
The next day Ji, Laura, Haley, and I went to this theme park in our area called Holiday World. We were there all day, and everything has already started to blur together, but I'll try to pick out some of the more memorable things that happened. I know the first thing we did was go to eat at the Alamo, the Mexican restauraunt in the park. After that, I can't really remember the order of anything.
We didn't really ride that many rides now that I think about it. We rode two of the roller coasters, the Liberty Launch, the log ride, and Raging Rapids. That was about it. I got absolutely soaked on the log ride and Raging Rapids. I got the wetest out of my friends, and my clothes never dried.
We also watched two of the shows. One was were they sing a bunch of country songs and the other was a diving show. I've been to this park a ton of times and seen both of these shows before. The diving show in particular never really changes, but they'd added this whole part that none of us had see before that was pretty funny. One of the divers was out in the audience (behind us actually), and he started saying stuff about how he could dive better than the diver up on the "stage." We didn't realize it was part of the show at first and were a little weirded out. At one point, one of the divers was dressed like Tarzan. Haley's been wanting to watch Tarzan forever. You should have heard her when he came out.
We ate way more that day then I have ever eaten in that park. I had fried oreos for the second time. Those things are amazing, but I can only eat two. I gave to other two away to my sister, who had joined us by this point. We also ate blue and red ice cream. That stuff is amazing! Haley and I actually went to get ice cream while Ji and Laura got some other food somewhere else. While carrying the ice cream back to the restaurant they're in, it all started melting. By the time we got back, I had red and blue ice cream down my leg. Ji's was basically soup by the time she ate it since she was still in line when we got back.
At one point Ji and I went into this glass blowing shop that no one else wanted to go in. We were in there forever. I honestly hadn't bothered to go in there since I was a little kid with my mom. Later on, we went back in because Haley wanted to get fudge from the candy/baked goods area in there. I decided to get a mystery box in there. Regina told me I shouldn't because everything in those boxes sucked. She was wrong. This store is in the Christmas section (remember we're at Holiday World), so a lot of the stuff was Christmas-themed. I picked the least Christmas looking box and got a dolphin one. It even has a little heart! I love it! Plus, it was cheaper than if I'd actually picked it out.
Ji also wanted to play a lot of the games. At one point, Ji, Haley, and I played this duck game that everyone wins. It's meant for little kids, so we were a little embarassed at first. Ji and I got little ducks, and Haley got a teddy bear. Laura also won a stuffed minion from Despicable Me playing another game that she gave to Haley.
As we were leaving, it was decided that Ji, Laura, and Haley would come over to our house and watch Tarzan, which Haley's been wanting to watch forever. We even invited our friend Jordan. We picked up Jordan, and then went to Ji's house for a bit. I've never actually been to Ji's house before since she usually comes to mine. We all sat in her room talking (and looking through her diary written almost entirely in Spanish while she lived in Guatelmala) while she took a shower. Ji warned us that her mom would over us food, and she was right (although we turned her down). I've only met Ji's mom a couple of times, but she is a very nice and friendly person.
We eventually made it back to our house. I was finally able to change out of my wet clothes, and we sat in my room and talked for about ten minutes. Then, Laura reminded us that she had to be back home in about an hour and a half, so we needed to start watching Tarzan. Watching a movie from your childhood is so much more amusing with other people. None of us had watched it in a while, and we made some interesting observations. Ji, who said she had hated the movie before, was crying at the end. She also said she was shocked by Jane's voice (last time she'd watched it, it had been in Spanish), which I found funny for some reason. When the movie was over, everyone went home, and I got to relax for the first time that day.
Sunday was pretty much homework day since I didn't get to work on it Friday or Saturday. Let's just say I'm glad that's done with.
