Happy Halloween!!!! (Some Tips About How To Survive It)

Happy Halloween and don't get frostbite!!!!! I just got back from trick-or-treating with my two friends and sister. I made the mistake of forgetting to wear gloves!!!
1) ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES ON HALLOWEEN.
I also learned that older sisters like to eat lots of candy. Now, this hasn't happened yet, but i'll bet you any money that throughout this week my sister will be poking around my candy. So rule number 2:
2) KEEP ALL CANDY AWAY FROM OLDER SISTERS THAT HAVE "BIGGER STOMACHS TO FILL".
So, those are the two tips that I can think of right now. I'll post more when I think of some!!!

Guess Who's Angry About Project Runway?!

Argh!!!!!!! The most talented contestant on Project Runway, the one all the judges said was great, and had a really good chance of winning, lost! I'm sooooooo mad!!!!!!!

Info:
Judges- Michael Kors, Nina Garcia, Heidi Klum, Jessica Simpson (guest judge)
Final 3 Contestants- Mondo Guerra, Gretchen Jones, Andy South

Mondo Guerra, the most fantastic designer I've seen, was obsessed with color. All his clothes were full of color and patterns, and they were laways so interesting to look at!!! The judges loved all his designs, too. They loved the fact that he used all this color and how he mixed patterns, and all those crazy, unique things Mondo used in his various outfits. But now, in the last week, the judges suddenly think, "Your outfits look clownish. People won't take you seriously." What are they talking about?! They need to be consistant!!!

The next contestant was Gretchen Jones. She was always trying to create "ready-to-wear" clothing, which by the way, I totally disagree with because if you want ready-to-wear clothing, you go to Wal-Mart, but if you're watching Project Runway, you want to see RUNWAY clothing. Anyway, Gretchen's clothing has always been sort of dull and bland (no offense Gretchen). Even in the last episode, Heidi Klum and Michael Kors called her style "granola". So, why would GRANOLA GRETCHEN WIN THE SHOW????????!!!!!!!!! Oh yeah, because the judges would MENTALLY UNABLE AT THAT MOMENT!!!!!! Or at least, they better have been. So the judges had this huge fight when they were discussing who should win. Jessica and Heidi bothe were Team Mondo (as everyone should) and Michael and Nina were Team Gretchen (ughhh).

Let's get this straight, what you know so far: The person they've been praising forEVER loses, and they person they've been hating on for the longest time WINS. You tell me if you think that's fair.

Then there's Andy. I feel really abd for Andy, just because within two minutes of the judges' discussion, they had already decided "Andy's out." Andy's collection was IMMENSLY better than Gretchen's (one again, no offense Gretchen; I don't really like being this blunt and making people feel bad) and they had already crossed off Andy. They got rid of Andy because supposedly, the outfits looked a little too much alike. Each outfit had it's own personality, and I really liked his design. Gretchen's collection was by far the worst.

Then, my mom, sister and I went on MyLifetime.com. And what do you know? People agree with me!!!!! People are saying they're "former Project Runway fans". My mom said they did this to get people to start talking about Project Runway, but really they're plan has just back-fired. They screwed the whole thing up, and now a bunch of people that have been watching Project Runway since the beginning are quitting now because they're outraged Mondo didn't win.

I AGREE!!!!!!!!!! VOTE ON THE POLL OR COMMENT!!!!!!!!

I Hate Being Cold!!!!!! Brrrrrrrr..........

You want to know what I really hate? I hate it when you have comfortable lounge pants on and a sweatshirt and your snuggled under a blanket and then some one in your family comes and reminds you that you have to take a shower. Then I always complain that I don't want to get all cold again, and then my mom will say "Well, when you shower it's going to be all nice and hot." And I always think about how cold I will be when I get OUT of the shower. I ESPECIALLY hate when I have to dry off with a damp toel AFTER  I have to get all cold to get into the shoer, and AFTER the warm shower, and AFTER I freeze from the air-conditioning. So that's something I hate. I hate, hate, HATE being cold..........brrrrrrrrrrrr........

The Great Debate

So, I was riding the bus home, and there was this girl who called up to our bus driver "The pinky and thumb aren't real fingers, right?" So then there was all this yelling whether they thought the pinky and thumb were real fingers or not, until the bus drivers went over our little intercom and said "The pinky is a finger, but the thumb isn't a finger. You don't call your thumb you thumb finger, right?" Then there was yet another eruption of objections again. The girl spoke up again. "But you call this one your pointer finger, this your middle finger, this your ring finger, but nobody calls this your pinky finger!!!!!" "But you do, some people do! Just 'cause you don't say pinky finger doesn't mean other people don't say it!" my bus driver said. Sooooooooo, I guess until i talk to some sort of finger doctor, I'll believe my bus driver. Do you know something different?Comment and tell me whether you have another theory!!! Comment! NOW....... just kidding........but please do comment!!

Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees

Everyone knows that everyone is either a Yankees or a Red Sox fan. All the Yankees fans say: "Yankees rule, Red Sox stink!" and then all the Red Sox fans say the opposite. I am impartial. I'm not really a Red Sox or a Yankees fan. It's sort of nice because I can choose which team I want to root for whenever I'm watching a game. But, if I'm surrounded by a bunch of people who LOVE the Yankees, then I'll root for the Yankees. If everyone around me happens to like the Red Sox, then I'll root for the Red Sox. I'm really not a huge baseball person anyway. So,

GO YANKEES!
GO RED SOX!

GAS-WASTER!!!!!!

This year, I did the Light the Night walk against Leukemia (Did I spell that correctly? Correct me if I didn't!) at Evergreen Walk. It was really fun and I had a good time. I left pretty much right after we finished the walk, (which was around 8:00) and my mom, sister and I stopped in one of the shops  there (L.L. Bean) on the way out. So we get on the highway and there is this small back-up. My mom is not happy because we had like literally, no gas. We only had enoguh to get us there and back very quickly. We pull in and drive behind the front two cars. We're not really sure what to expect. Then we see one of those construction vehicles that had a bunch of road signs and tons and tons of pylons in the back of it. Then we catch on. We move about a foot every two minutes as these construction workers go out and put each sign up one by one by one. That goes on for about 10 minutes, and we finally think that the torture is over, and that we might not run out of gas. But NO. They had to put EACH PYLON DOWN ONE, BY ONE, BY ONE, BY ONE. And you want to know what else is crazy??!! These two police cars are blocking ALL of the other lanes even though these construction workers are only putting signs in this one lane!!!! So no other cars could go!!! By this time, the traffic jam must go farther than two miles back!! Why would they do this at 8:00 at night when practically everyone is out?! We're sitting here praying we don't run out of gas and just die right there on the spot. This pylon nonsense goes on for who knows how long and then finally FINALLY we leave! We were probably stuck there for 20 minutes. We just barely get home with enough gas. One more thing that's frustrating: we were two cars away from missing this whole thing!!! We might've been able to beat the police and consturction if maybe we hadn't stopped at the store or something. The next morning, we couldn't drive to the bus stop, so my dad had to drop my mom and me off at the stop.

Construction at 8:00 at night? Really? Made no sense whatsoever. What a gas-waster..........grrrr........

Target's Parking Lot and Bussing

Bussing (busing?) !!!!!!! Crazy school bussing...... I have a story for you.

It's a rainy day out. I get onto the school bus, and I have a temproary different bus driver (I knew this already; that wasn't a surprise) and it goes just like every other bus drive. UNTIL my bus driver goes over the intercom (yes, they have one in the bus) and says "Listen everyone. My windshield wipers are broken, so you're switiching buses with some kids going to another school.And, you're switching in the Target parking lot." So we turn into the Target parking lot and all us kids are thinking 'What? Why are we switching buses in the middle of the Target parking lot?? But anyway, we unload and walk onto this bus and we're all cramped into the front part of the bus (there's about 30 of us) and get to school about 20 minutes late.

Who knew Target's parking lot would be the place to switch buses on a rainy day when your bus' winshield wipers break?
