Not an Ordinary Day.

So today was no ordinary day. When I wok up, I was greeted with a little text from my Ericka explaining she would be absent today during school. I was perfectly fine with this until I got to school and found out that my lovely Whitt would only be with me for a few hours. It was quite sad for me... especially during lunch when the guys spent the period arguing about a killer whale "killing" someone, blue whales being blown up, snuba diving in Mexico, and, of course, there was some kind of mention of farting (their favorite subject). I finally figured out guys are know-it-alls. Let me tell ya, it was the best lunch ever! (that was sai

d in a very sarcastic tone). It wasn't that bad, I guess, but still, it wasnt the same without my two best friends. :( I love them anyways, however, even though they left me coldheartedly!! :)

Oh yes, do let me explain the above picture. It is actually from yesterday, drawn by Miss Ericka as she wrote her "I love.." list. Just thought I would through that out there.

Anyways, back to my day. During 1st, 3rd, 5th, and pretty much every period today, I talked with sparky about his obsession with Bakers Hotel in Mineral Wells. He showed me all the pictures he took of the place yesterday (which were seriously pretty awesome) and explained to me a whole lot about it. It is actually pretty fascinating. We decided that if we could we would buy and and redo it (Mrs. Sullin's idea), but unfortunately that would cost way more money than any of us could possibly afford. So therefore we just continued talking about it and wishing we could somehow go there....

Back to the real world. When school finally let out, I made my way home, after a short stop at the grocery store and me and my mommy made some awesome cinnamon coffee cake. I do believe I ate way too much batter, but it was so worth it :) Then as we were waiting for the French Onion soup to cook for dinner, me, my mom, and my daddy, played a quick round of Jin Rummy ( our favorite card game!) In the end, I dominated, as usual, and that brings me to where I am now.

All in all I had a fairly fantastic day, because even though I didnt get to spend it with everyone I love, I felt pretty amazing so that made up for most of it. Seriously, the one day everyone (including caleb williams!) felt bad, and I felt fantastic... that's a change.

Spanish word of the day: "No!" - Whitt

To end with a song that recently has been one of my favorites:

Hello my friend
I remember when you were
So alive with your wide eyes
Then the light that you had in your heart was stolen
Now you say that it ain't worth stayin'
You wanna run but you're hesitatin'
I'm talkin' to me

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

So when you get the chance
Are you gonna take it?
There's a really big world at your fingertips
And you know you have the chance to change it
There's a girl on the streets, she's cryin'
There's a man whose faith is dyin'
Love is calling you

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

Why do we go with the flow
Or take an easier road?
Why are we playin' it safe?
Love came to show us the way
Love is a chance we should take
I'm movin' out of the way

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
(Stand out)
Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
(Stand out)
somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

So when you get the chance
Are you gonna take it?
There's a really big world at your fingertips
And you know you have the chance to change it
