So excited :)

Today, Dad is taking me to drive his stick shift. I need to learn, because the car I'm getting is a stick shift. :) But after we get done cleaning around the house, we're gonna go find a parking lot for me to practice in. Even tho it's technically illegal for me to drive out here....haha. Oh well. :)
Oh, and once I get a good picture of my car, I'll put it up here. It's awesome. :) It's a black Mazda RX7, 1983, 2 seater. My grandfather here in California is giving it to me as my birthday present. He is gonna drive it out to Jersey for me and everything. He is having the paint redone and everything too.
I love being the oldest grandchild. And that I said that I wanted it. :)

DIG number 13

Lucky number 13!!! :) lol Sorry, I have LOTS of energy, and can't wait til tomorrow :)

1) I got my eyebrows redone today!!! :)

2) I got Rita's for the first time in the 2009 year! :) Chocolate water ice. Can't beat that. lol

3) Again, Shark Bait's Question of the Day got me thinking. Similar to yesterday's, but instead of just being sleep overs in general, it was sleep away camps, church/scouting activites, school/sporting activities. Again, I said yes, they are good things and I explained why. I guess I'm more into them and think they are good cuz I've been 1) sleeping over at people's houses since I was born practically (family at first, friends as of 5) and 2) I've been part of scouts and church things since I was in 2nd grade and we went on camping trips all the time. My parents wanted (and still want) me to experience all types of things of that nature since I was little. So, I guess that plays a huge part in it.

4) My Little Bean turned 4 today!!! :) That little girl is my rock, and if it wasn't for her bratty, rotten, spoiled little self, I would not be the person I am today.

5) I got a 95 on my pre-calc quiz I took on Wendsday after school. I found out today during class what my grade was. I'm sooo happy.

Tomorrow is going to be fun....My grandfather is picking me up tomorrow morning when I'm ready to be picked up, I'm driving us to the second church (the one with the office in it), he's going to do some work there, and then we're going to drive around Salem County so I can get some more practice in. Since I got my permit, I've driven everyday, until this week. This week has been kinda crazy since my eye got hurt. So, I was kinda rusty tonight when I drove tonight. So, Poppop and I are going driving tomorrow. He is all ready for it, and so am I. Hopefully I can learn some back roads during this excersion tomorrow. LOL :)
I'm off to bed so I can be up early tomorrow. He is an early riser, so I don't want to keep him waiting in the morning. :) Night everybody!! <3

Happy birthday Poppop

Yesterday was Poppop's 81 birthday. We weren't able to really celebrate it last night cuz everybody was pretty busy. So, we celebrated it tonight. My mom's old childhood friend came over with her husband and two sons, ages 5 and 3.


Poppop was cutting up the cake for everybody to eat. Cuz he loves us all =]


Evan and Brad playing with the legos. Evan is 3 and Brad is 5. So, so cute haha =]


Brad, my mom's friend, and Evan waiting for dessert


And, last but no least, Mr. Weick gave me a HexBug today cuz my flash drive had the most up-to-date manual of the entire team. XD It's MOE green, but I don't care. I've been bugging my mom to get me one since PARC in June. And I finally got one. =]
Oh, today at robotics, we realized that the cRio is NOT isolated like it should be. Before they moved it, it was isolated. Then, they moved it. Hm, proves that if a project is finished, it is NOT to be moved. And didn't Mr. Hinde say that today to Ally? Yes, I believe he did. He shouldn't have moved my FINISHED project.....I'm blaming him if it shorts out cuz of the static electricity after a match. lol
At around 1 ish we left SCC to go to MOE's practice field. We swear that they probably had cameras watching our every move. AND our robot. lol There is another picture that I was gonna put on here from when we were at MOE's field (no, you can't see the robot), but it's on my mom's camera. Once I get it, I'll put it on here to show everybody =]
Other than that, today was pretty uneventful. Hopefully tomorrow will be better? lol

Cantata and dinner

Ok, so the cantata was fun. I got alil nervous. Ok, alot nervous. But looking at these two people I know and trust alot helped me calm down some. Haha. There were lots of people there, and nobody in my family took any pictures that I know of. XD I took some pics with Shannon's camera before the cantata of everybody in the choir, but that was about it.
We went to Texas Roadhouse for my mom birthday dinner. She had to have the cactus overtop of her head and everything. It was perfect. XD

This part is for Tonya.....It may be cold, but this time I'm not gonna wear a jean skirt and tights and a thin sweater. Haha. I'm gonna wear jeans and a big warm hoodie. Ok, maybe two hoodies. Hahaha.

Recap on party last night

So, originally Shannon, me, and my dogs were gonna go to my grandmom's house and the cat was gonna be put in the crate and in my mom's room. Wanna know what all was followed through with??? The cat. Mhm. He was put in the crate and in my mom's room while me, Shannon, and the dogs stayed here. My mom's friend's fiance came first. Two seconds later her friend Kate came, and I was expecting her husband to come in next. Nope. Who did I see? MR. HINDE! From the robotics team. Yea, I was alil freaked. Then came Kate's husband. I was still obsessing over the fact that Mr. Hinde came. The next people that came I had no clue who they were. Not the last person, but the second to last person came in through our back door cuz he knows us so well he can just do that. Maris came, and when I realized it was him, Shannon and I stopped looking at the robotics hint with Mr. Hinde and jumped to give Maris a hug.
We put the dogs downstairs, and everybody stayed upstairs. Mr. Hinde was getting along with alot of my mom's friends. I was like "Ok, wow. This is alil weird. My robotics mentor is here talking to all my mom's friends, and they have stuff in common. wtf??" When Mr. Hinde came, I decided that Collin should know that he was here since it was so weird and not usual. Collin said hi like a good boy. Mr. Hinde thought that he was hiding in my back room. Haha. That would be cool if he was.
Once a few people left and it was just me, my mom, Shannon, Mr. Hinde, Maris, and my mom's other friend who I can't remember his name, we all started talking about Christian and Collin. Ooo was it fun. XD We were cracking on Christian about things he does and has done in the past, and were just making fun of Collin. I did defend my boyfriend of course. They just wouldn't believe me. Haha. They swear he crawls after me in the hallways. Which isn't true at all. So if they're trying to spy on him during the day, they're doing a horrible job at it. Haha.
So, all in all, everything went well at the party. Even tho Mr. Hinde was there. hahahahaha. I still think it would have been more fun if Tonya and Fred and Denise and Collin and John and the boys and Tonya's kids came. Hahahaha. Tho I do understand why they couldn't come. Would have been tons of fun. Shannon and I would have actual people to talk to!! o_O

Alright, I gotta get in the shower now so I can go to church, then the second church service, and then the cantata singing thing I'm going to. Tonya, I give up. It starts at 2. I guess if you must come, you can. And take all the pictures you want. Hahah. Collin knows what church it's at and Fred knows how to get there. I've decided that it's pointless to fight the embarrassment. Hahahah.
I'll post more after the cantata.
Oh, and I almost forgot.....Today is my mom's 38 birthday!!!!!! =] And Chloe (my ex's dog who I claim to be my own) is now two years old!!!!! =]
