Ohh You Make Me Smile!

We chilled out and did school today. I got to learn all about Heredity in Biology. Fun funnn.. Haploid cells, diploid cells, chromosomes, and all those other important things you learn that will come in SO handy in everyday life later on... I did some history, all about Otto von Bismarck's getting fired and when I got sick of reading over a bunch of things I already knew I pulled out the humongous book on George Washington that my grandfather lent me and actually learned some history ;)). Then I made some brownies and we left. Music was cancelled since everyone was sick except me, and just recently Alexis. So we didn't get to see the O'Neills. But we went to legos and soon after Heidi and Allen, another member of the Heidi's previous team came to mentor our team again. Robynn gave her elevator speech, we explained our now decided project and our ideas for a skit. Brenten announced I had the final draft for his idea... Haha, obviously he missed the part where I threw it out in the trash can on my way out of the room humiliatedly. I still have it on my computer though I guess. He began by saying "Okay, there's a dead body..." Heidi: "Ah! I knew it! How did I know it would include a dead body?" We talked, were filmed, I looked like an idiot when Mrs. Fillmore tried to say "I know Halie's done a lot of research on this and could tell you about it.." And I couldn't. Then we ate nachos and brownies and when Derek, Robynn and I reentered the lego room everyone else was locked out... Just when we were starting to get into Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs mode we had to leave. We had already been informed we were leaving promptly at 6. But not before I was informed that from my last blog when I'd described my uncle Tyler's look as being associated with one of two things that Brenten had been using the look for choice one - Lameness. He proceeded to sing Battery. Not a song I'm particularly fond of. The ones I've recognized so far actually are 'Enter Sandman' 'Sad But True' and 'Never Never Land'... On a funnier note I sent Emily 'Crazy Train' the other day and she never told me whether she'd listened to it, or heard it before as I had bet she had. Also I've had 'Run to the Hills' stuck in my head for awhile now, interrupted only in the car by listening to music when Uncle Kracker's 'Smile' came one. I don't know why, it's not really rock ish, but I love that song! It came on twice today and we turned it up full blast. By the way, anyone who HASN'T heard that song needs to. So moving on from music we went straight to Starbucks from legos. Megan came, making it so that we'd met up with both Ewen kids for different things that day and also Mary Jeffers. They were the only teens there. We had tons of fun and we discovered that Megan and I chrochet scarf rows in different directions. Yeah, laugh it up guys. I was chrocheting. See if I care. We had a blast! We hardly stopped talking for a second. Megan and Lexie got frappuccinos or whatever. Whatever they were they were iced and the genius pair were freezing cold because of it!! Mary was super nice and hung out with us lunatics. Megan will back me up on the fact that I took forever on one row at a time and also that I HATE the second row. The second row sucks. Terribly. But we stayed there forever and just talked and laughed and chrocheted. Now for another matter entirely. It has been implied that the reason I'm not a blue person is that blue people are supposedly sad? Is that right? I'm not sad for the most part I'll agree. I don't like sad songs even. They just seem kind of wallowy, self pitying and make everyone feel sad. The point of music, in my opinion, is for people's enjoyment. I do not enjoy being sad, therefore I do not enjoy most sad music. Frankly my humorous excuse which I keep using is I just never bothered to change it. And it's true! Favorite colors reflect a person I think, and it's difficult for me to pick one! I still like blue: indigo most of all. It's calming and the color of God's awesomely amazing nighttime sky. But maybe it's not my favorite anymore. Maybe I am a green person. Who knows? I don't feel like picking a new favorite color right now. Too much work ;)). Too deep. And what in the world does it mean that I'm "Willing to go along with people even when I don't want to"? Is that good? Bad? It sounds like I'm a pushover! I don't know if that's good then. Being a pushover sucks, I think. One thing I find funny is that B waits to talk to me in person about my blog instead of commenting. It's all cool though. I know you were offended that I wrote about your competitiveness, but honestly I made myself seem worse than you in that post. And maybe I am - "I backstabbed and threw a can of Manwich at you and you continue to be friends with me..." If you really don't like it I'll cut it out of the post. Anyways Laterz!!
