B i g . SUPER. looooooooonnnnnnngggggg. update.

So these past few weeks have been mostly great. I have some time-management things to work out, but other than that it's been great. Where to begin?

I got an iPod the week before Thanksgiving, and it's been awesome! The highlights of it all have been listening to the Bible while driving to school and whenever else I drive for more than a minute and a half, and compiling a super cool playlist from my CD's that has all of my favorite songs on it! Well, actually I really need to fix the playlist again and turn it into two playlists. I seriously need a playlist for my favorite worship songs, and one for my favorite listen to songs. (All my songs are Christian, but some of them are just kinda for listening purposes.) It's been awesome.

The kittens are getting bigger, and older. They love to play most of the time. We have been letting them out more during the day because they've finally been really good at like litterbox stops etc. Their personalities have become waaay more noticeable. Siren is more vocal than Catapultanian by quite a bit. He also likes to be held and petted way more than Catapultanian. Actually they enjoy it equally, just Siren likes it for longer periods of time than Catapultanian. Cat only likes lubins when it's nap time, and the only time Siren doesn't like it is when he's extremely playful. I bought some higher quality baby kitty food a while back, and I've been noticing that Catapultanian has nice smooth furr now. It may be my imagination, but Siren may be filling out more. His backbone still sticks out a little. He's actually quite fine, the lack of bulk in him is probably just the way he is.

School has been going great! I signed up for more classes for the winter term, four total to be exact. I'll be taking math, art, music, and science. I also finally decided to major in Graphic Design. That'll be lots of fun for me because I'm kind of designey.

Thanksgiving was great this year! Our whole (well, not really WHOLE family, but more than usual) was able to come because we decided to do it at our church instead of any house, because even small portions of our family don't fit in any of our houses anymore. In fact, we had somewhere between 30 and 40 people come! Well, at least half of them were kids, but that's still quite impressive! I helped decorate. That was my job... well, besides helping Mom cook her share of food.

I bought some more toy horses. Ha! When, oh, when will I stop buying horses! Well, they were only like $1.70 each, and I bought two, and they're like a set of 5 horses each... mini horses, like very nearly the smallest in the world! But they were so cute, and they were breeds that I pretty much always wanted! But still, I find it funny. I have like this huge toy horse collection of all sizes. Now, I do, amazingly enough, know someone who probably still has more horses than I do. And I know OF some people with larger collections, mostly those who have their own website devoted to a brand of horses which they collect. Ha! Those guys are nuts... but I guess I'm calling myself a nut, too. Sweeto neato!

A couple weeks ago I had a debate with a feminist/atheist... was really weird.

I went to the Super Bowl a few weeks ago. You might say, "Wait, isn't that in (whenever the football Super Bowl is goes here)?" (Sorry, not much of a football fan myself) My answer to you is, "Ah, but I'm not referring to the football Super Bowl, but the Word of Life Super Bowl." A bunch of youth from around the state came to Portland where we all watched a basketball game, in which the Blazers ACTUALLY WON, amazingly enough. Wooot the game was exiting! I actually discovered I can scream! Imagine that! Then we all participated in a youth rally at the stadium after the game. After the rally, we went roller skating at Oaks Park, then on to bowling. It was a twelve hour event from 6pm on Friday to 6am on Saturday. Upon my arrival home, I totally crashed! Then I had two birthday parties later on that Saturday! It was awesome, but I really had a sore throat for a while after that. I got a totally cool hat, and got to participate in the games at the youth rally! It was awesome!

I get to play the piano for a tea party tomorrow. Um, I haven't really practiced the Christmas songs for long at all... only a couple days. And we're going to sing along to them. Yikes! Actually all this week I totally slacked in my responsibilities. Fun, huh? I got to laze around all day! NOT FUN, actually. Despite the easiness of lazing around, I felt horrible. Well, whatever, it's in the past, and now I get to not do that again. :D So after I finish this blog, I'll be practicing piano some more. Oh, speaking of piano, Dad and I went to the church to record some of the songs I wrote on the piano. It was cool! But I'm afraid we may have wrecked the speaker. Rats! Well, it could possibly not have been my fault. Lol!

Well, I had better get back to practicing the piano pieces I'll be playing tomorrow. TTYL

P.S. My cousin's son is sooooo cute! He totally recites Scripture memory verses and is only 2! Check it out! brianandtanya.blogspot.com

Everybody loves homework!

:-D

You think I'm sarcastic sometimes??? NEVER! :-P
Actually homework isn't that bad... but nasty math problems are. We had some really bad ones today that got everybody confused. Ah well. Off to homework I go!
