How to Rock!

Playing rockband 3 for over three hours is an extremely tiring thing. I had to sing like Marilyn Manson, then sing in Spanish, then sing like Blondie. But the HIGHLIGHT of my night: singing 25 or 6 to 4. I got sooo into this (I love Chicago), I sang like an opera singer, then a gospel singer, then PeeWee Herman. It was phenomenally fantastic. I lovee rockband.
Another exciting thing about my life, is that I may go on a road trip with my friend Gomer this summer! I'm so excited! We are going to go to Pennsylvania for Geowoodstock IX. And if you do not know what this is, I will now explain.
Geowoodstock is a MEGA event for the geocaching community. What is geocaching?
Geocaching is an amazingly cool treasure hunt using GPS instead of map and compass. You go to GEOCACHING! and log all of your finds. This website serves a dual purpose though; you alsooo look up where you are to find out what geocaches you can go and find. It's funnn.
I had a superiorly weird dream last night. I was a teacher and I was wearing these giant glasses; there was a chalkboard and I of course, was holding chalk. I then told the class my name was Elizabeth Bieber and I wrote it on the board. What the hell? Talk about the most random thing ever! I have no interest in Justin Bieber whatsoever, and the only lyric to any of his songs that I actually know is "baby baby ooooh." When I told this class my name though, they all started asking me if I was his mom? WHO KNOWS.

The Negatives of Facebook

What I have discovered since moving across the country, is that you realize how unbelievably good looking all the guys at your old school were. Without facebook, you would have NO idea what someone across the country looked like, and you would have no idea that they would look any different from when you previously saw them. For example, this one guy who I have been going to school with since first grade, is apparently really hot and tall now; this all just occurred THIS year. I mean really?
On a more positive noteeeeeeeeeee, my besttt friend Francisco may possibly come to visit me and we are going to go to a music festival!!!! :D :D :D :D
I'm so excited it's not even funny.

How To Calculate!

Today I attended a very exciting math competition. My school is absolutely phenomenal at math, so we obviously placed extremely high. My team got 18th place :)
This particular competition was excruciatingly difficult though; It consisted of an impossible individual test, a mental math test, a potpourri test, a geometry test, and an evil algebra test. But the best part of it all was my spectacular lunch:
  • Peanut butter (extra crunchy) and jelly with bananas within this tasty whole wheat sandwich. 
  • pistachios with some tasty little chocolate chips
  • three excellent chocolate chip cookies
  • a chocolate milk
  • a coke
  • Zotz candies!
  • and PINEAPPLE!
Did I ever mention that I LOVE pineapple?
Some more highlights of this adventure would be playing catchphrase the entire two-hour bus ride home and (not to forget) the extreme math tutoring goin' down on the way TO the competition. My friend Austin was drillin' me with them factorials, man.

Doctor Who: Infinite Quest

The Infinite Quest is an animated episode featuring Martha Jones as the companion. The thing about this is the animation really looks like David Tennant and Freema Agyeman, but the way the animations move is just a bit off-putting. 
The storyline is pretty interesting. It starts out with the Doctor kind of giving Martha a little history lesson about Balthazar (the villain of this animated episode), right in front of Balthazar. Then, of course, the Doctor finds a clever little way to destroy Balthazar's ship. Before they leave though, Martha makes sure they release the gold bird that was caged up in Balthazar's ship. This decision is what comes back to bite them. 
Just as the Doctor and Martha were about to go enjoy a nice little trip to a mystery place (that Martha actually randomly chose the coordinates for), they're redirected by their buddy Caw (the gold bird). Caw sends them on a little quest, where they are trying to reach the Infinite before the antagonist of this story does. 
Along the way, the Doctor and Martha find themselves facing pirates, swarming bugs, and a freezing cold prison. 
HIGHLIGHT:
Pirate Ship Captain: You two better hold on tight
(Martha and the Doctor hold onto eachother)
Pirate Ship Captain: to the rails!

How to FRIDAY

I love Fridays. Fridays are the epitome of greatness, of course Saturdays are better... So I have no idea why I said Friday's the epitome of greatness when obviously Saturday is... ALTHOUGH, on Friday, you feel the wonderful anticipation and hopes of the upcoming day in your heart. That's always a great thing. Best of all, on Fridays, is when your brother has three friends over and they won't stop talking about guns. When we were in my car, I could hear a headache-inducing blend of three conversations all about guns during a painstakingly long five minute car ride.
"Why does that thing spin?"
"It's reloading the gun"

"I was telling them, it's a spy! Not me! It's a spy! It's a spy! I told them it's a spy!"
*giggle giggle*

"On HALO that one time..."
"Haha oh yeah I remember that!"
"And I was like.."

I mean, sure, guns are great and all, but there comes a point!

How To Caffeinate

So my friend Leah was drinking loads of pepsi today when she broke out in dancing. Along with her surprise dance-off with herself, she was singing like she was an electric guitar. At the same time I was awkwardly eating two popsicles while my friend Clarissa discussed her love for drumline. During all this highly interesting and entertaining phenomena, Calvin and Fargo just stared at us with a look of disbelief and laughter. All-in-all, it was a pretty fantastic day.
A wonderful joke from my popsicle stick:
"What does a whale do when it's angry?"
Waitttttttttttttttt for it..............
"HE BLOWS HIS TOP!"

You just gotta love popsicles man...
