Party

So I went to my friend Stephenie's  birthday party the plan was to go to her house for dinner and then go to Raging Waters and go swimming. So when I got there I was the second person and my friend gave us a tour of her house until people arrived. When at least almost everybody was there we went outside and started eating. Dinner was orange soda, pizza, jelly beans, and pretzels. I took a slice of the pizza so I wasn't rude. Almost immediately after we had started everyone arrive who were for sure coming. There were six of us: me, Stephanie, Kylie, Emily, Kate, and Maddie. While eating we had some odd conversations, but what do you expect when all of us are very random gals. She said you don't have to bring a gift. And of course, we ALL DID. It was getting chilly out and the sky was a deep gray. All of us were at least kinda worried about if we really would go swimming. When we all had finished Stephenie's mom brought out the presents. None were huge but all were small expensive or not. When she pulled out mine she showed everyone my doodles. My face fell in my hands. She did think they were good. Although I didn't. Then she opened the card. I think she liked it, but she was ecstatic that she got money so she could buy what she wanted. When she had finished opening they brought out the cheesecake with 8 candles although it was 5 candles short. We lit them were singing happy birthday when a wind blew them out, but they blazed back up. When she blew them out the parents were wondering why they didn't light back up. Apparently they were those trick candles. I think it was just too windy outside. After that we split up into two cars and headed to Raging Waters. I was in a car with Stephanie's mom, Emily, Kate and myself. We talked and played the alphabet game. When we got to Raging waters we stopped before going in. Stephanie's parents talked about if it were too cold. And of course it was so we decided to go to the Classic Fun Center. It took about 40 min. to get to Layton from SLC. When we got to the Classic Fun Center since it was for a birthday party we got to get a special room to just party in. Stephanie's mom got us some lemonade and pixie-sticks. For and hour we just danced, drank soda, sang, ate, and we partied. But during the first 15-30min. some boys kept bugging us. After an hour of partying and Kylie telling the annoying unknown boys that she hates them, them asking why her saying she just does, partying, more partying, etc. We went to play laser tag. We were doing teams. Me and Stephanie were on opposite teams and accidentally banged into each other. During that her gun hit my cheek and still it hurts when I talk, smile, frown, etc. After that I was at her back. So just when she was about to shoot somebody her gun wouldn't work,and apparently she'd been shot.. That was all my revenge. After a fun game of laser tag where my team won (YES!!) we went back to the room to party some more. There we found that somebody had been in, drunken the Root Beer, messed with our stuff and left the door open. We were upset! But we decided to try and shrug it off, so we partied some more. :) Soon we were all tired out and decided to do some games. So we got some tokens, and played some games. Two games cheated me so I told the a person who worked there about it he went over fixed it but had to pull out some tickets in order to. Then the machine finally gave me my tickets, and then he gave me the extras. I was happy going up to claim my prize(s). I got a friendship necklace and a popper thing, and then let Stephanie pick one. She picked the popper thing. Finally it was time to go home. We got in the same cars and they drove us home. On finding my house we got lost for about 5min.and then we found our way again. When I got home I said goodbye. They left and I was happy again. And it was about 9:30. It was very fun!

Doodling Problems

My doodling problems are getting worse, and I don't know what to do. Even my teachers could tell. If I forgot my name on a paper they could tell because of the doodles. Now I was making a card for my friends birthday so    I put it in an envelope. It was plain white. Plain WHITE! To plain for a birthday envelope if you ask me! So I added a small drawing, and then it became bigger and bigger. Until the whole envelope was drawn and colored. Now what do I do? Mom says it's fine, but I think it's at least a tad bit out of control. Okay. Okay. A big problem. But what do I do? Help me out! (Or just agree with mom)I'm thinking I might just leave it, but I don't know. We'll see how my friend reacts.

Last day of School

On the last day of school I got up at the normal time got on the bus and went to school with my homemade-poor-excuse-for-a-yearbook. Once we got there I went to sit with my friends because school started 30min. later than normal. Looking around I noticed I was the the only one dressed up and and one of the only ones happy.I left to explore for a bit, saw another friend and asked him, Why?  He replied that no one really ever dressed up and that most people were sad that school still wasn't over yet. In my opinion you should make the last day the best day, and I told him that. Sitting back down with my other friends I asked what we should do while waiting for the others. Since there were only four of us so far we decided to skip down the halls singing, "We're off to see the wizard the wonderful wizard of Oz!" I kinda looked like Dorothy so we said I was her, Lizzy was Toto, Emily was the scarecrow, and Kylie was a very very cowardly protesting coward who we had to drag. We skipped down three of the four halls singing, and in one hall past Emily's brother. Whom I was certain was very embarrassed. Finally it was time to go to our classes, and we all departed our separate ways to our first period classes where we were all supposed to meet before the assembly and while waiting for yearbooks. While there in Ms. Jones portable we mingled until it was time for the assembly, where we were stuck on the bleachers for about 2-3 hours. After that we went back into the classroom and got yearbooks if you paid for one. Which I hadn't. Then we started signing while waiting for them to call us to the cafeteria for everyone to sign them.. I had only planned to get friends and that is what I was doing. I kept refusing this one guy who is creepy and wouldn't leave me be. So while I was signing one of my friends he signed mine! What a jerk! So since one creep had already signed it I changed my plan to trying to get my whole class to sign it. Which unfortunately meant talking to people I don't know, and scariest of all asking Micah to sign my poor excuse. I already had all my friends so I started asking others. One guy to up a whole page writing his name and Justin Bieber is gay. I was not too happy about that considering I don't care about the Justin Bieber thing, and he took up a whole page! A whole page for a short note! Then after I had one more person sign I turned around and came to face Micah. I swear I blushed so badly, and I'm still embarrassed. The luckiest part is I didn't have to say a thing. He handed me his and I handed him mine. I was relieved. After signing his and getting mine back I had to ask one more person.
"Hey Judo will you sign mine?"
"Don't do it Ruth!"A classmate warned.
"Why", I asked handing Judo mine. Apparently what Judo did to mine he did  to everyone's. He kissed the paper and then handed it back.
"Thanks,"I said kinda disgusted."Blake I probably should have listened to you,"I admitted.
"Yes you should have," he said.
Finally they called us down, but we didn't go to the cafeteria. Looking around I found my friends. We all signed each others. Then I found my eighth grade friends and had them sign it too. Then my cheerleading friends and others. Our bus didn't come till 1:00, and we didn't get lunch! How strange is that! Oh well it was really fun. Except the lunch part. It was a good day. And it was funny, becuase on the bus me and Lizzy read what people wrote in our yearbooks, and Lizzy was kinda jealous that I got signatures from both her crushes, and then we saw them walk past the bus. I pointed them out and Lizzy looked out. Turned around and blushed. Heh! Heh! Heh!:) Yes it was a mostly good day.

Kitties

Twix had kittens!!!!!!!!!! :)

Yesterday at about 5 o'clock 6 o'clockish we saw Twix outside, but she wasn't pregnant. We looked for the kittens for about an hour following Twix and searching, so we brought Twix inside, and eventually she went back out. Kate saw her go over the cat-hating-only-Spanish-speaking-grumpy-neighbors-fence. Kate got me and I brought up a chair to the fence so we could see. For a  minute we couldn't find her, but then I spotted her near some boards. We got down and moved the chair closer to that area. When we got back up Twix was still there but we couldn't see her. So we got dad, and then Kate stayed inside for a minute to eat while  I showed dad. Dad didn't believe me that Twix was there because all you could see now was the rustling grass, and demanded to know if Kate had seen her there. I got Kate and she said she had, so we went and knocked on their door. The anticipation and test to my Spanish speaking was hopefully gone. I even prayed that they were gone, and guess what. They were.........................gone!!!!!! :) So Kate climbed over they're fence, went by where I had spotted Twix, and FOUND TWIX WITH HER KITTENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!:) :) :) :) :)  We brought her and her kittens back and now they're in the washroom. Mostly the kittens eat, sleep, and pee in the bed. Twix lays around purring stretching and feeding her kits. There are five kittens in whole, 4 white and 1 gray. We have no idea how she had four white cats, because we only with a gray cat and I'm positive that she mated with Shadow. We're positive all the white ones are boys and pretty sure the gray one's a girl. Their  names are:  Pip-stick, Fluff-ball, Blizzard, Dusty, and Rachel. And of course all they white ones look a lot alike so we have ways to tell them apart. Blizzard is the whitest and so far the smallest. Pip-stick has one side of her tail gray and the other white, she's also the second whitest. Fluff-ball is the fluffiest, has a stripey tail, and the second most greyest of the whites. Dusty looks like he had a small dusting of dust applied to him and is the second fluffiest and is the plainest.. Rachel just looks like her mom. They're so sweet and I wish I had a picture to post.
