I Love Billy Joel

Hiya! I'm in a really good mood right now. Mousey just said hi to me by putting her front paws on my left leg, then she raised her left paw and stretched and then walked away... hi Mousey!

Okay, so I guess I'll tell you my traditional day-after-school.

• I come home and put all my stuff down (bag, purse, jacket) and put my phone on the charger if it's low (if it's not, then I put it to the left of my pillow where it stays unless I'm using it.)


• Then I take my iPod and put it on my little set of speakers and play my playlist labeled "bp" (it doesn't stand for anything, just two random letter.) On this playlist, there is 28 songs and they consist of: Billy Joel [15]; Bon Jovi [2]; Dobie Gray [1]; Jimmy Buffett [1]; Lou Bega [1]; Lucas Prata [1]; Rod Stewart [5]; Shaggy (Feat. Rayon) [1]; and Tina Turner [1].


• Then I go get something to eat (lunch ends at 10:22am for me in school so....) and drink.


• I come back in my room and put all (million) of my pillows/stuffed animals on my bed. Just like, in a big mound.


• Then I turn on my computer screen and check my e-mail and then I come here and type up my blog.


• Then I go and do some homework and/or practice my oboe.


• And then I do whatever from there.

Fun right?

For some time, a while ago, me and my friend SaraH tried to do a Podcast. I have a microphone and the program to record my stuff, but I couldn't (and still, I don't know) figure out how to post it. I didn't know how to make it into "feed" or whatever. I thought it'd be easy, but apparently not. Anywho, we just stopped that for no real reason. And now... we're not doing anything specific.

AJ split his pants today. Yes, he split his pants. First it started out that there was a hole by the pocket of his pants. Then, while we were at my locker, he went to sit down on the ground and then he shot up and was like, "Oh no...". Then he asked me if his hole got bigger, so he turned around and it was so funny, there was this 4 inch rip in his pants. And so, as the day went on, his rip kept getting bigger and bigger. Finally, at the end of the day, at my locker again, it ripped a little more. So he got the bright idea to try and look at it by squatting down and sticking his head in between his legs. Then, all of the sudden, I hear a little "rip" sound. He looked at me with these really big eyes and a shocked face. I already started laughing but I told him to turn around and show me. When he turned around, I almost fell over laughing. From top of his right back pocket down 6 inches was this long rip with his boxers hanging. the look at so funny. I swear, that was the hardest I laughed in such a long time.

The wind this morning was UNBELIEVABLE. We got off the bus and started walking towards the building and tears were streaming down my face. (This is after I already poked myself with the mascara brush this morning and had tears of mascara.) And then this huge gust of wind came (after the constant really strong wind) and brought sand with it. Of course, it got in our mouths and on my friends lip gloss. It was so gross, the feeling of sand in our teeth. Ew. So when we got in the building, my across-the-street-neighbor, Greg, came in and his hair was sticking up in the front and wouldn't go down. Yes, it was very funny. That was a start to a great day of school (no sarcasm).

I'm going to leave it with that, I covered the high lights and low lights of my day and I included a boy story. We're good.
