Angels Fly in the Air Tonight...

Hi!

So. It's officially the last night of summer. Tomorrow is the last day of summer. Then back to school and craziness and seeing my few close friends again.

Back to School means a lot of things. It means back to homework like crazy. It means back to the awesome band rehearsals and listening to everyone play together. Back to wearing that ID around my neck everyday. Back to seeing all of my friends. Back to obessively organizing my binder and locker every 5 minutes, and being annoyed that I have a bottom locker. It means having to choose an outfit for everyday, and this year I have to think about it more because we are in 7th grade. It means screaming in a pillow because I have no fashion sense at all and wishing I could wear my uniform. But mostly it means that I'm not a little 6th grader anymore, and that I'm almost to the top of the school. And it means that I'll get confused again when people ask me what grade I'm in. And it means looking down at the little 6th graders, thinking that was me last year.

Summer, I'll miss you. I did so many things, while they weren't huge, they still were pretty awesome. Going to volleyball camp-that was fun. Going on the boat with Alex and then getting heatstroke/a bad sunburn and being sick for three days. Then getting up after those three days and have only one day to pack to go to Abby's. Being at her house, than coming back down to my house, with her. Spending 4th of July with Abby and Alex, watching the stinky fireworks, and making Alex eat/drink so many disgusting conbinations. Then dancing/singing in my room, with the lights off, ipod's blaring, and each singing/dancing to something different. And then being sad after Abby had to go home. Then going to Southlake Town Square with Alex and spending the day there. And suprisingly not getting kicked out of any stores. Then Annie slept over, and we saw the Harry Potter movie, which I was completely confused during. Of course, Alex and my day at Skatetown. Staying there for 5 hours and being incredibly sore afterwords. Abby and I both obnoxiously begging our parents to let us visit again. Then visiting again and having so much fun. The me being in the pool with all my clothes still on, random phone calls to each other, watching the TCA's together, the awesomely awesome Frebreeze/Lysol/Bug Spray war I declared on her and won, dancing/singing in the dark again, and of course, Death by Chocolate.

So yeah. I had a pretty fun summer. And I got to spend time with some of my favorite people ever. For those of you who I didn't get to hang out with, I'm sorry :( We have a whole school year and another summer still...

The title of this blog is from the song Our Last Night by Better than Ezra. I thought it would be appropriate because it's the last night of summer and all.

And this has become a monster of a blog. If you read it-awesome :) And if you read it, go ahead and leave a comment! Just put your name at the end of the comment so I knew who it was from :D

Summer, thank you for being awesome. See you next year!

The 12 and a half year old wants to blog again.

Hi!
Yes. Today's my half birthday. It's been fun, thanks for asking. Really we didn't do anything-this morning while my mom was swimming in the lake, I got to ride the kayak. That was pretty fun, but my arms are super sore now.

Right now I have these annoying little whitening strips on my teeth. They cause me to keep my mouth open at all times, and I can't talk. Only for the 30 minutes I have to wear them. It could be worse, I guess...

It just occured to me that I go in to get my schedule/locker/ID picture tomorrow. Wow. There went my summer. As much as 75% of the kids in my grade annoy me to death, I kind of can't wait to go back. I miss seeing my friends every day. Wow. Usually I'm not the one to miss people. I'm not a people person. Oh, and I am obsessed with school supplies. Just had to put that in.

OMG! Abby and I got Webkinz when we were at the mall. Mine's name is MooMoo, and it's a hippo. Actually, I'm going to name all my webkinz. Because I'm bored, and I have 30 minutes to kill.
1. Love Puppy, Elise. She was my first Webkinz. I love her to death ♥
2. Googles, Lisa. Oh how I hate this little duck/googles thing. Tried to kill it many times, no luck.
3. Pegasus, Miley. That was back when I kind of liked Miley. As a name, people.
4. Golden Cat, Lydia Grace. The name's from a book that we read in 4th grade..
5. Yellow Lab, Mason. My Mason puppy! In real life I do have a lab named Mason :D
6. Collie, Murray. Absent-minded Murray. In real life I do have a collie named Murray :)
7. Husky, Elena. Elena was the name of my reading buddy in 5th grade.
8. Rabbit, Chloe. Couldn't think of a name for this one, went to a baby name website.
9. Koala, Jamie. The cutest of them all, except for Love Puppy.
10. Hippo, MooMoo. The name is the name of Kellie Pickler's dog. MooMoo. Awesome name :D

There you go. I have way too much time on my hands. Sit me at my computer, weird things on my teeth, and country radio, and I can write for hours.

I spent a lot of time this weekend watching home videos. I was a pretty cute toddler. With crazy blonde hair. And I was pretty shy. Guess I still am...

I got pear scented deoderant. Ok, just had to tell somebody that. It smells good :D

I can't think of anything else to ramble about. So I'll just wait for the remaining 13 minutes until I can take these stupid whitening things off. I'll talk tomorrow about my schedule! So much fun.

Frog Fate

Hi!

Title? No clue what it's about. Abby and I were goofing around and I randomly say frog fate.

So I'm back from Abby's house. She started school today. I can't believe she's in sixth grade and I'm going into seventh! It seems just like yesterday I was 8 and she was 7 and we went to Disney Land.

What did I do at Abby's, you ask? Random things. You can hear about my pool-floatie-wearing-clothes incident over at Abby's blog...(http://abbsiesblogts.blogspot.com/2009/08/my-poolclairefloatienot-good-recipe.html) We also had very random phone calls to each other while we were in the same room. We used her home phones, and we would each be somebody different.
First, I was Taylor and she was Joe. She broke up with me in exactly 27 seconds. That one was fun. Then after the TCA's (omg. did you watch it? Bad Miley!) I was Miley and Abby was Nick. Let's just say the conversation involved Miley inviting Nick over...and ends with her pregnant. And drunk. Then giving birth to a dog. While drunk. Another phone call was from Joe to Nick.. and Joe mentioning his pink speedo. Other characters were Demi, Selena, Abigail (Tay's bff), Kellie, and of course, Miley, Nick, Joe, and Taylor. It was pretty random and awesome.

All the pets have abandonment issues. My dogs both slept at the foot of my bed last night, and the cats were spread out on the bed. Even my incredibly grouchy and un-friendly cat who hates everyone and everything in the whole world, Sheridan, was sleeping on the pillow next to me. And proceeded to sneeze on me about every five minutes. Did I mention she's allergic to her own fur? Yeah. Maybe that's why she's grouchy.

I.D. pickup/schedule/locker stuff is this Monday. I'm praying that I get a top locker. And I just organized my binder for the hundreth time.

School starts the 25th. Maybe I'll have something intersting to somebody other than me to write about. Hope so!

Happy August!

Hey!
Wow, I can't believe it's August! Feels like June. Weird.

So that means school starts in...17 days! Poor Abby, she starts this coming week.

Today I'm heading off to Abby's house again. It's weird, I miss her a lot even though we were visiting about a month ago. We both know that once school starts for both of us, we will see each other a lot less. We already booked Halloween at her house :D I'm going as Annie (from the musical) but she will be Anger Management Annie. Abby's going as Bob the Friendly Gay. Or, we are convincing her mom to let her go as Bob the Friendly Gay. Come on, that's pure awesome.

Yesterday I did my once-a-month-super-cleaning-extravanagaza. I did my dresser first. After taking everything out and putting it back neatly, I found a bunch of things. Like my footie pajamas. They rule. Next I cleaned my closet, then desk. I did the other half of my room last month. I also got my hair cut. Then we went school shopping! Kohl's was the place for this year. I finally got new clothes! And I convinced my mom to let me get a pair of shorts for the rest of summer.

The origional plan was to have Abby come down Sunday, but at 9 pm last night, when my room was a federal disaster zone, she calls me and asks if I want to come down today. Cue the crazy jumping and rushing to get things halfway decent. I had my room spotless and bag packed by 1 am. And fell asleep at 3. And woke up at 9. Whatever-I'll sleep in the car. I'm bringing my new clarinet to Abby's....so she better be ready. It's pretty.

There's my rambling for this weekend, I'll probably blog when I get to Abby's. If you don't follow me on Twitter, I suggust you do. You get all the funny/lame things I say, much more often! 65 followers and counting!

P.S. The song I'm listening to is Closer to Love by Mat Kearney. Love that song. Thanks Taylor for using that song in your video! Can't stop listening to it.
