Cinco De Mayo

Whoops, this is actually the day AFTER Cinco de Mayo, but at least I remembered.

We didn't really do anything. I was supposed to dress up the traditional dress, but then it was banned so we didn't dress up at all.

We are having a party on Thursday :/

This girl gave me a box of cookies today. It was really random. I bet they had drugs in them or something.

103 Days until the targeted date.

I was invited to this grand ball party at the end of may. Turns out we have to dress fancy. Hmm.. I have a banquet on Saturday!

We gotta dress fancy for that too.

Nothing much to say besides the blisters and William and My split. GRR.

Belly-ache.

So annoying. Stupid Laptop. I just typed three paragraphs, and it just deleted it. I don't know why it keeps doing this to me. I guess it is just the bad luck. I don't need anymore of that right now, sheesh.

I got 5 dozen outta my cookies today. Pretty nice I'd say. The very first one I burnt. I kept them in there a minute longer. Just a MINUTE, and they burned. Stupid cookies. I guess it is the luck.

Gymnastics tomorrow. Better do good. I have a lot to do tomorrow actually. It is going to be pretty busy with the sale, and then I have to go to LJ for All American. What a day.

I didn't eat too much today. I think that is because all the oatmeal again. Jeez. I ate so much of it, I got a belly-ache. I couldn't eat anything else! I'm suprised I didn't turn into oatmeal. I made the dough, and since it is whipped, you have to put it in the daidokoro for an hour. In the meantime, I was watching the "Majestic" as I was cooking. I came in about 20 minutes into the movie. I didn't know how much I missed, but I had never seen this one, and being a movie lover like I am, I couldn't pass it up. I came in on the part where he was laying on the beach, and some wrinkly old guy finds him, and starts poking at him. I don't know how many commas I just used in that sentence. Anyway, it was a good movie I suppose, one of Jim Carrey's few serious roles. I know right?! Serious. Jim Carrey. It is impossible to put those two words in the same sentence; I had to put periods! But yes, it was pretty intense. He even cried when there was a death in the movie. I am not going to say who, because you might have not seen it yet! That is my creation. The top one of course. My hermana made the bottom. Not too bad for a first timer eh? It is Pumpkin Bread. Love that stuff.

I am not sure how long this one is going to be. I need to go sleepy bye soon. You know my bad morning skills. Terrible I say.

I got all physical tonight, and tried to fix this old broken piano, so I could play on it. It took me approximately 20 minutes to examine, and figure out what EXACTLY was wrong: The piano was terribly out of tune. (Took me .5 seconds to figure that one out) A few keys were broken, and some were jammed. I started searching around in it to see if I could fix the tuning problem; I saw them fix an out of tune piano in the Majestic. :) I examined the keys on the inside for any suspicious happenings. The broken ones appeared to be just like the normal ones. I got on the floor, may I remind you, that I have never attempted to fix a piano before, or ever been in any such situation where I had to learn how, and looked under for a closer look. Everything appeared fine.

I was on edge trying to figure out what was wrong. Then I spotted it. I moved back the built in Piano cover, and saw chipped and cracked keys! Just what I was looking for. I scrounged up some masking tape, two scissors, and a good helping of elbow grease for the job. Long story short, I failed, but that didn't keep me from playing "Wind of Life" by Joe Hisashi!

Time to make my leave, but tomorrow is a new day.

Bake Sale!

So it is decided. I am going to whip up a couple of batches of oatmeal cookies, and snicker doodles. No peanut-butter fudge. It takes so long. I don't have the patience. We have to make them a day early so we will have time to prepare it all. Then, I have to go drop them off at this lady from our churches house, because she lives closer to the sale area.

I hope they like oatmeal as much as I do.

I figured out this new breakfast you can make. Cook oatmeal with honey and butter, and it is so good. You'd be suprised.

Today, I kept getting followed around by a four year old. I kept telling him to go play with his mom or something, but I guess he liked me or something. He kept saying, "Watch this! Watch this! Watch this!" I was about to explode. So annoying. I suppose I was a four year old once.

I cleaned the house a little bit today; it is still messy as ever, but I picked up a few clothes, then went and ate some pizza. Haha.

I really need to pay my phone bill. I haven't paid it in almost two months. They keep sending me "friendly" threats telling me that I need to pay it, or they are going to shut down my service. I don't know what I would do without my cellphone. Live, I guess. I turned it on today and it took it four times to turn on. I had forgotten all about it, and the battery had run down while it was rotting away in my purse. That is so sad! I never talk on it anymore, so I just forget about it. I miss using it, and listening to my "IF you're not the one" ringtone along with "Labios Compartidos." Those were the greatest.

Actually, I was thinking about getting a new phone. It is from the same company of course, so I could keep the same number. I just need to get off my butt and go make some moneys. It is pretty cheap considering, and it has an Mp3 player on it. Great for those long awkward rides in somone else's car. IT is a slider, and it is black. I want it, but first I think I need to pay my FIRST bill!
