Rain, rain, go away...

OMGGG WHENNN INN THEEE WWOORRLLLDDD WILL IT JUST STOPP RAININGG!! Last week there was beautifullll weather....high 80's, low 90's. Just enough to wear cute shorts, short sleeve shirts and Converse or flip flops. Then, I awoke on Wednesday morning and I see white, puffy clouds, screaming RAIN IS COMING! Ever since, it was been rain, rain, and more rain. Our soccer game was cancled, due to the rain. I straightened my hair this morning, and now it's curly again, due to the rain. I mean, my mood would be lifted and I wouldn't be as crabby if it wasn't raining, but noooo. On top of this nastynastynasty weather, there is tesp prep all week long. There is a map quiz in social studies tomorrow. Anddd and science quiz on Friday. Why oh why do teachers cram before the most hectic, hard, stressful week? I just don't get it. Don't get it at all.

On a more positive note...

Today in science Lizzi and I were talking about how we want to go shopping soon together. We can't wait to go to F21 and J Crew. We might go shopping at J Crew sometime in May, and I don't know when we will go to F21.

Thursday will probably be the highlight of my week. We have in-class dress rehersal for dance, which is when we go in our costume and get our pictures done, and we perform our dance for the parents.

Gotta go now...get ready for bed and studystudystudy some more...

XOXO,

Where Has The Time Gone...

Heyy! OMG sorry it has been so long! I have been so busy lately...and my Mac won't let me blog because the whole screen is busted up. So much has happened....but first...Happy April! I updated my April Faves...but in a week, they will turn to my May Faves!

Two weeks ago we were in Rome, Italy. Here is a quickquickquick summary of my vacation...if you have any questions, comment with them and I'll answer them in my next post.

Sunday, April 5th: Arrived in Rome. The time difference was a killer, so we went to sleep for a few hours, then I went shopping with Chelsea, Chloe Donald and Jodi. Donald lost his luggage, so that's what we went shopping for. We got back to my hotel rooms, and everyone else in the group was there. We were going out to dinner. Chelsea, Donald, Chloe and Jodi ran up to their room and got changed, and I ran into my bedroom and got changed, because we were hot and sweaty from walking so much. We had to walk down the Spanish Steps to get to the restraunt, and the view was gorgeous.

Monday, April 6th: Early early early in the morning there was an earthquake. The focus was 6o miles east of Rome, which is not very far, and it was a 6.7 on the Ricter Scale, when the highest recorded earthquake was a 7. Today we had a tour of the Coliseum, an amazing landmark from Ancient Rome. It was amazing tro see how the people built it...with no power tools...just millions of people, rock, and rope. Our tour guide screamed at my brother for asking a question, so we left her and looked at the rest on our own. After we left, we went out to lunch. We went back to the Coliseum, but not inside it. We took this little road up a huge hill, and on top of the hill there was a beautiful church. The inside was amazing...anf the stainglass windows took your breath away. Everyone was getting hungry again, so we went out to dinner. Before, we were at this square the Italians called the Common Square, and it was so much fun. There were fountains, and the arcitexture was beautiful. We went out to dinner, and Chelsea and I had to go to the bathroom, but the bathroom was in the basement. I tripped all the way down the stairs coming up...it killed.

Tuesday, April 7th: We went to the island of Capri. This was my favorite part of the vacation. The water was crystol clear blue, and there were millions of tropical fish swimming around. We rented a privite boat to go around the island for the day, but we got there a little early. We took convertible taxi's up to the tippy top of the mountain and had lunch and shopped a little bit. Then we went back down. We all had out hands out of the care going down because Poker Face and Circus was playing. The boat tour was AMAZING! The landscape was beautiful, the water gorgeous, and everything made you think about how lucky you are to be able to do something like this. We took mini canoes into a cave called the Blue Grotto, and the water was a magnificent shade of blue. Look up pictures on google. The car ride back was fun, but 3, long, hours.

Wednesday, April 8th: We had a tour of the Vadican, where the Pope lives. This was okayyyyy....the paintings and sculptures were my favorite part. My favorite room was the 16th Chapel...Michael Angelo painted it. The final product took him 4 years to make, and it's amazing.

Thursday, April 9th, 2009: We went to Florence. I loved the shops here....they had EVERYTHINGGG! Florence is the 2nd biggest shopping district in Italy...the first is Milan, which is also known as The Shopping Capital Of The World.

Friday, April 10th: Today we went shopping. I got a pair of Louis Vuitton shoes, and a Louis wallet. Samantha, Emelei, Jack and I took a horse carriage ride around Rome, while everyone else finished shopping. We celebrated Jack's birthday in the hotel room that night.

Saturday, April 11th: Came home :-(. It was sad to leave, but we all know that we will be taking another vacation together very, very soon.

So that was a summary of my vacation. Remember, if you have any questions, comment with them :-)

This weekend and upcoming week is going to be/has been very hothothot. Yesterday it was 88 degrees, today 92, tomorrow 90, Tuesday 87, and so on. It's time to kiss winter goodbye and say hello to cooler clothes, hotter weather, and my fave, spring/summer shopping!!!

Wow...this is a really long post. I'll post again in about 2 days or so!

XOXO,

Not so Good, Very Bad, Awful Week...

Heyy! Sorry I didn't post this week. Didn't find the time. Didn't feel like finding the time. And definitely didn't feel like MAKING the time. Why? 'Cuz this week sucked. It was awful. Depressing. Sad. Angry. Tears. Joy. Hot and cold. Up and down. Happy and sad. It was a week that was like, you are happy at times. But the someone decides to be a jerk and ruin the moment. Not naming any names. 

Last night Alexis was going to sleepover, but then I forgot I was going to The Battle Of The Bands with Chelsea. So scratch sleepover. The Battle Of The Bands was fun though. Then tonight, Alexis was going to sleepover again. Then she realized that she has to go somewhere tonight and then again tomorrow morning early. Now Lizzi is going to come and sleep over...which is like, going to be the highlight of my week. The best thing that happened this week. She obviously will make things better.

Yesterday was Lizzi's birthday!! HAPPY BELATED 12th BIRTHDAY LIZZI! WE LOVE YOU!

XOXO,

Cass 

Where Has The Time Gone?

God, time goes by so quickly. I was reading all of Lizzi's old posts on her blog right now. It seems so...sad. I remember when she first moved here. She hated it. Absolutely hated it. She barely any friends. Wanted to go home. Not to her New Jersey home. Back to California. Then, she adjusted here. Made friends. Enemies. Frenimies. Sorry Lizzi, if I'm putting you on the spot. It just reminds me of the situation we were all put into this year when we first came to Timberlane. We only knew the people from our school. No other friends. Didn't know anyone. Some of us probably hated it. Wanted to go back to their elementary school, where everything was easy and innocent. 

I also want to start blogging about...other stuff. Give more sensory details, you know? Like, what goes on, detailed, in school. The little things we don't think matter...

Starting...now. 

Today in school was typical. Boring. Switching classes. Blahhh. In science, for some reason, felt...weird. It was raining outside, so there wasn't sunlight coming in. I guess it felt like...sad. Droopy. The feeling when you are...almost...depressed. 

Apparently, today was grab-a-girls-a*s day *I don't know if someone made this up??*. So this kid, Myles, went up to a bunch of 7th grade girls, and, well, I think you know the rest.

Ahhhh!!! 16 DAYS TILL ROME!!! Can I get a woot woot???

It has been really warm lately. Tomorrow is the first day of spring. Yay! Hopefully no more snow, and have higher highs for the weather.

Gotta go... I'm still in my dance stuff and I still have to shower.

XOXO,

Cass <3

School Again..

This morning was..normal. Sort of. Not really. I woke up, normal time, got dressed, got ready, and went downstairs. Since I'm sick, my mom made soup for breakfast. I had a little, and then my stomach started to hurt. I took my medicine, and drank some orange juice. My mom said I could go into school late because she wasn't sure if I was going to go. We got in the car at 8'oclock, and I ran out of the car and...well...got "sick." My mom at this point didn't want me to go to school, but I decided to go anyway. I think it was just because I was coughing like crazy.

Right now, I'm in 4th period, normally gym. I had a gym excsue note so I decided to come to the library. I attempted to get some work done, so I wrote a paragraph for language arts, and that's it. Haha. Next I have science, but at 12:05 I have scedualing for next year. Scedualing is when we go to guidance, one person at a time, and plan our scedual for 7th grade. Hopefully it doesn't take too long...I can't afford to miss any more science.

Eekkksss!! Creepy girl just sat down next to me....hopefully she isn't reading this ;-)

Tomorrow it's going to be about 65 degrees! Beramuda shorts? Skirt? I shall decide later...

Oh yeah! I totally forgot! HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!!!!

Bad news: Yesterday, March 16th, 2009, my frog, Peppy/Freckles *Joni and I fought over the name* died between the time of 2:00 and 6:00. :-(

Gotta go...almost passing time and I wanna go early to beat the crowd.

XOXO,
Cass <3

I Need To Build Up My Ammune System...

Heyy! Sorry it's been so long..again. You wanna hear something a tad ridiculous? I was sick on like February 15th-17th, and now I'm sick... AGAIN. Stupid ammune system.

So not much has happened. Alexis slept over Friday night, Lizzi slept over Saturday night, went shopping, blah blah blah. Right now, Chelsea is in the Bahamas, because her and her family went to see the JONAS BROTHERS!!! Ahhhhhhh!! Sounds like fun, right, right, right?! RIGHT. 

OMG, so the other day we went to the pet store to get my frog Peppy/Freckles *Joni and I fight over the name* a friend. We ended up picking out 2 orange and brown frogs, and we get all the proper stuff needed for it, like food, pebbles, stuff for them to climb on, and everything else. A half an hour worth of papers are signed because they are native to our country, and we are ready to go pay. The guy that was like helping us said, "They need crickets to survive." My mom and Joni HATE bugs, along with everyone else in my house. Long story short, we put everything back and came home with 2 fish instead. 

In exactly 2 weeks, 5 days, or in Chelsea's words 18 days, we are going to ITALY!!!! WOO HOO!!!!

XOXO,

Cass <3

Happy March!!

Heyy! So now it's March, and one step closer to...

• Going to Italy <33333
• Summer 
• Summer vacay
• No more winter
• Soon to be Spring
• Warm weather
• Spring shopping
• Lizzi's birthday
• Alexis' birthday

Emelei's birthday was on Saturday, and we had a lot of fun. First, everyone came to her house, and once everyone got here we went to the movies. We saw He's Just Not That Into You. It was good, but a little advanced for our age. I sat next to Morgan and Chelsea, and we would just laugh at the awkward parts, when Rowana was shouting stuff and being hilarious. We came back to the house and we put on music, danced, played Guitar Hero, had dinner, went to my room, took funny pics on my laptop, had cake and went back into the basement and had more fun!! LOL. A real fortune teller came and told all our fortunes.... I <3>

Today is a SNOWWW DAYYYYY!!! We have like 8-9 inches so far, and it's still coming down. I like not having school, but it's March, and March is normally the time when the weather starts getting nice, like the beginning of spring. It's only the beginning, so hopefully by the middle/end, it will be nice-er than it is now. I do have to say, it DOES look really pretty outside :-)! Plus, it is supposed to warm up by the end of the week...well high 40's, low 50's. 

Lizzi and I were iming this morning, talking about how everyone this year is so... un-innocent anymore. I mean, like, its only 6th grade. You have your whole life to wear make-up, have a boyfriend, have girl fights, love drama, go through depression over a guy, smoke, etc. You are supposed to be innocent in 6th grade... not act like you are 16. I mean, like...kissing? We are 11-12, not 15. It's okay to like someone, and have them like you back, but ya don't kiss them in 6th grade, ya know? And, kids smoking!? Smoking pot?? Pregnancy scares??? AHH!!! So much drama, I tell you....

Well, I updated my March Faves... check them out!!

XOXO,

Cassidy <333
