Mi, Moi-meme et Moi

     I'm sitting at my kitchen table right now, sipping a cup of tea. But it isn't just ordinary tea. It's... alright, well, I have no idea what kind of tea it is. All I know is that I need to add less sugar and maybe use milk instead of whipping cream. Let me explain.
     Alright, so I was using my computer, but I got pretty bored. Then, I decided to have some tea. After that one cup of tea, I wondered - I once had a tea latte called London Fog, so I searched up the recipe. Too bad I didn't actually have any Earl Grey tea, so instead I started thinking... why not make my own tea recipe! Okay... I admit, it was a very spontaneous and very bad idea. But, in my defense, I was bored. So, I brewed some chamomile, rose petal and a bunch of other herbs tea. Added two sugar cubes because I accidentally steeped it for too long and then added a bit of whipping cream. Why whipping cream? Well... I didn't actually have any normal cream.
     The result?
     Way, way, waaayyyyyyyyy too sweet. I guess I'll just try again.

     If you've watched Step Up 2/3, then you'll know who Moose is. There's this totally cool clip of Moose dancing in Step Up 3 during the Battle of Gwai. Check it out:


Isn't he totally awesome and cute? Don't you love how he dances in water? Umm... kay, so I've got a teeny-tiny crush on him, but that's not important....

Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday dear Harry!
Happy Birthday to you....!

That's right - it's Harry Potter's 31st B-day! Yay! For those of you who are wondering, his birthday is July 31, 1980. So, for his birthday I was supposed to buy cheesecake but I sort of forgot (sorry Harry!) so instead we're sticking candles in muffins. Chocolate chip/banana muffins/Mixed berry muffins. Yummy. Umm... I'm going to watch a Harry Potter movie and I'm going to read the first book all over again (for the sixth or so time). I'll probably play Harry Potter Scene It.... though no one wants to play with me. Nobody else in the house actually knows a lot about Harry Potter. I would have bought a gift for him... if, you know, he was real and I could send it to him.

As you can see, I'm a huge... no, ginormous fan.... no, humongous... no, tremendous... no, hugimondous fan of Harry Potter's. There's no word in the world to describe it.

Anyways.... remember to wish Harry Potter Happy B-day today!

     Kay, so I don't really like Barbie, it's just that I do have some fond memories of Barbie dolls and movies. But they've done something horrible to Barbie. All of a sudden, she's shallow and the plots are so.... shallow and underdevelopped. What happened to Swan Lake and The Nutcracker? Barbie even has a new face which is pretty ugly.

Compare:

Compared to:


So, it's not that ugly, but she looks so material girl. The old barbie was sweet. I am forbidding my sister to watch these new barbie movies. Instead I'm forcing her to watch old movies. What's happening to this world?

     Isn't Nicki Minaj awesome? I mean, seriously, do you hear the way she raps? Totally unique, slightly weird but catchy all the same. I am proud to say that I can rap one of her songs - 'Super Bass'. It's my fav song at the moment. Check it out :


If I get enough comments and pageviews (that means above ten) I'll post a video of me rapping Super Bass. :D

     So sorry for not posting earlier. Anyways....

     One thing you probably don't know about me is that I'm in love with Taiwanese dramas. Especially this one drama called Autumn's Concerto. It's so.... dramatic (duh!) and it made me cry a lot. Those are the best dramas. Where you cry and laugh all through out the show. But I also loved the characters (Van Ness is so cute and Ady An's really pretty). OH, and you can't forget Xiao Le, their adorable son. If you ever get a chance, you should definitely watch it.

     I am an avid writer. Probably not very good at it, but it's a hobby. Well, I entered into this writing contest and this is what I submitted.

Hope you enjoyed!

     Guess what I dug up after searching through my computer. A speech I did in Gr. Six about Adolf Hitler. I didn't get chosen to go on, because the topic was too heavy for the younger audience and I spoke too fast... Damn! Anyways... here it is!

    For me, it wasn't all that great. I mean, watching the Autobots and Deceptacons fight was friggin' awesome, but it got pretty boring at times. It was funny. I admit that I laughed. Truth is, I sort of missed Megan Fox, but the new actress was good. She was a blond version of Megan Fox. You know, sexy.... and yeah.
     My dad and my bro enjoyed it, but the fight wasn't all that eventful to me. I've seen better, but then again, I probably fell asleep during the fight scene... so maybe it got interesting after awhile. Overall, it wasn't bad, but it wasn't the best for me.

     I don't know if it's the same for you, but I'm obsessed with the smell of books. Is that weird? Not for me, it isn't. Every one of them has a different smell (books in the same series smell the same, obviously) and it's always so good. Sometimes, when I'm reading, I stop for a second and just sniff the pages.
     Once, I was reading a book called 'Inkheart' and one of the characters, Mo, told his daughter that our memories cling to the pages of our books and I think that's true. Every time you open the book, you remember that little boy or girl you were when you first picked it up and opened the covers. Books are a truly wonderful invention. I don't know what I'd do without them.
     One of my friends told me that she has this special bag and if there's ever a fire or emergency, she would dump all her books in there and run. Yes, they're that precious to her. And I have a duffel bag that serves the same purpose. I can't live without books.
     So next time you open that book you read in sixth grade, stop and smell it for a moment. Or at least remember that younger version of you, sitting in the same bed, staring out that window and reading those same words.

     I love pressing flowers and petals in books. For some reason, it strikes me as very romantic. I'm pressing a Dazzler red in my Oscar Wilde book (hard-cover, special edition, has all his works.) And a pink/yellow rose petal in my Inkspell book. The roses in my backyard are huge and the yellow/pink ones look so beautiful. Just saying...
     Do you press flowers too?

     I'm so sad! My bff is moving to Mississauga and I won't see her ever again. JK. I mean, she's moving, but I'm gonna be at her thirteenth b-day party. But, I'll still miss her like crazy. All through the year, I knew she was going to move, but I never really felt like it would happen. I thought that it would go away, or that it was one of those things that would never happen even though you keep talking about it. Then, she actually did move away and you realize it isn't just a bad dream.
     I will miss you a lot, KeKe (I'm not going to use her real name for privacy issues.) When you leave, I'll be missing a very valuable friend.

... are the best! I mean, they're perfect for playing games with little kids. I imagine we're gypsies, running away from evil villains that appear in books. Once I pretended me and my sis, Julia, were gypsies hunted down by an evil man named Capricorn (from 'Inkheart').



FACT: Couch Forts are fun for all ages from 1 yrs old to 122 yrs old.

     I knew this was a bad idea. Since the laptop isn't working well, I had to transfer to the basement where my brother is currently playing X-Box. You know how annoying it is sitting in the same room with him? Absolutely annoying! It makes me want to tear this whole room apart. Ugh... I can't stand his yelling. My ears are burning and my heart is pounding. I would love to wrap my fingers around his skinny little neck and... oh well. Oh MY God! Would he just shut up with all those weirds sounds? He wouldn't be able to keep his voice down if someone put a gun to his head. Urrghh...
     I hope he doesn't stay like this forever. I hope he grows mature and stops yelling all the time. People in China can probably hear him.
     It doesn't help that I have a raging headache and a stuffy nose. I had to abandon the cozy comfort of my bed to watch over my little sister. sigh
    

     I'm lying in bed right now, the laptop propped up on a board I put on my stomach. There's a damp cloth on my forehead and a nice, hot cup of tea beside me. My book is resting beside me, distracting me from my sore throat and itchy nose. I mean, who gets a cold in the middle of summer? Not many people. It's all my little sister and brother's fault. They kept on coughing and sneezing on me. Oh well...
    

This is my new theme song. LOL.

     So, you all know my lil' sis from my previous post, Annoying Little Siblings. Well, I decided to make a blog for her, about her. I'm just starting it right now, but check it out here >>> http://www.meismisadventures.blogspot.com/

     My dad just made me a nice cup of cappuccino. Mmmm.... pure coffee bliss.

     If you're the first-born, then you know what I mean. Stealing your stuff, touching your makeup, telling on you and following you around are just some of the things our little siblings do to aggravate and infuriate us. Sometimes, we feel like locking them in a closet and just relaxing. Because, then, they're out of our hair. But we can't because we'd "feel bad about it" (get told on). Yet, that's what we have to deal with every day.
     So today, I'm ranting about the most annoying siblings in the world. My siblings.

     Who isn't excited for the last day of school? Now that it's finally come and gone, I can barely wrap my mind around it. OMG, the school year is over! But I feel like it's a long weekend, rather than a whole two months of vacation time.
     But, of course, I'm going to miss all my friends from school. Especially my one friend that's moving away and I'll never see her again. Yesterday was the last time she'd see most of the people in our class and the other class too. We're all going to miss her very much.
     This year was also the last year that my teacher taught at our school. Next year, she'll be moving to another school to teach Grade Six french immersion. Because she's (one of) the best teacher I've ever had and our whole class is going to miss her, we decorated the board while she was away.


     So how did your last day of school go? What are your plans for the summer?

     If you're a Harry Potter fan like me, you've probably heard about Pottermore. It's an interactive website that J.K. Rowling opened for all Harry Potter fans to enjoy.

     Doesn't everybody love picnics? It's such an enjoyable experience. As you all know, it's summer again (woohoo!) and its that time of year when everybody goes to picnics. It's the same for my family. So every Sunday, we're going to grab some take out or make our own food and head over to this park called Lowville. It's a really nice place..

     Have you ever gotten your heart broken by someone? Sometimes, it's good to have a little pick-me-up once in a while and in today's (second) post, Imma share a few tips with all of you.

     If you watch lost, then you'll probably recognize Doug Hutchison, 51, who played Dharma leader Horace Godspeed. If you're a fan of aspiring artists who haven't hit it big yet, you might recognize Courtney Stodden, 16. However, you might be surprised to know that these two are married. Yup, that's right. They're married.

     Let the wonderful aroma of sweet chocolate drift up your nose, the taste touch your tongue and warmth engulf your body. Your tongue darts out to reach for those yummy marshmallows and as you quietly sip your cup of hot choco, you feel like you're in paradise.

     Everyone knows how Princess Diana, royal superstar, died. Chased down by paparazzi in the streets of Paris, her car crashed. You would think that they would be more cautious, but what about that incident with Justin and Selena?

     If you're a geek like me or you just love all things Superman and whatnot, you probably heard about the new Wonder Woman show. I saw a brief sneak peek of the pilot on this site called kevinism and you should go check it out first, before reading the rest of this post.

     The title says it all. I mean, seriously, why? It's so unfair. The cramps, the pain, the crankiness... blah, blah, blah. Worse yet, the whole world seems to be turned against you or you're getting super emotional. I mean, what's up with that? Yeah, I get the scientific reason (or whatever you call it). I went to school. But why!!!???

     Hey everybody! I was just talking to my friend today and she told me that she wrote a an original song with my other friend. Because I'm caring and supportive (psshh, yeah right) I decided to post it on my blog. As you can see, they're really good. I hope you'll like it too. The song is called 'Reaching Dawn'.
Hope you like it! Subscribe if u do!

It's 11:22 PM right now, but sleep eludes me. I'm not stressed, there's nothing important on my mind... so what's going on? If you remember your first time drinking coffee and loving it despite the bitterness you'll know what I mean. If this is happening to you at the moment... Well, you just OD'd on coffee.

Ever since Lady Gaga came out with her song "Judas", people have been offended by the lyrics. Are you one of those people, or do you disagree with them?
