Summer is Great, New Stuff

Since my last blog, summer has been pretty good! The weather has FINALLY let up and although it's been hot, the sunshine has been a definite improvement since that nonstop rain. I've been watching a little TV and reading Harry Potter. I'm on the third book right now and I'm trying to finish the whole series this summer and still get my English assignment done.

As for my tattoo, I've now debating between two designs for my arm: a butterfly and a fairy. I don't which to choose because one of them might take longer and require me to come back later for more filling. I'm not sure which to choose...if you'd like to see them and give your input, I have the links right here:

Fairy tattoo: (For this one, it needs more coloring and I don't want my name with it.) http://tattoo.about.com/library/graphics/091204f.jpg

Who else is looking forward to new TV episodes this summer? The SpongeBob ones sound great and I can't wait for the celebration bash! The FOP ones don't sound great at all, but I might tune in anyway for something to do. I watch Jon and Kate Plus 8 and I thought that would be a great show I could tune in to no matter what, because unlike other shows it doesn't have writers to mess it up and deteriorate show quality. But then, I found out that Jon and Kate are splitting up! Oh no....those poor little kids will have divorced parents and their show won't be the same! I certainly hope they try to sort things out, I mean, they have 8 kids!

On a happier note, this seems like a great summer for movies! I really want to see My Sister's Keeper. I have the book at home and if the movie follows it well, it will be great. The plot is unique and it has a great cast with Cameron Diaz and Abigail Breslin! I want to see it in theaters sometime soon. Maybe it will be at an outdoor theater with Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. They both look like great films and it would be fun to see them outdoors. I personally like outdoor theaters better because you get to sit or lay under the stars, take your own food and you can make more noise, as opposed to having sit in a tiny chair, buy expensive food, and make no noise at all at indoor theaters.

Last night, I went to this Pasta and Pops All-You-Can-Eat Spaghetti Dinner and I helped out with the event. It was for the band, and even though I'mnot in it anymore I still went with my parents to help. My former Color Guard captain was there as a food server, and she kept staring at me...for what reason I don't know. I made sure I didn't look at her, and my mother gave her a menacing look and she looked upset!After she took one plate of food somewhere, she didn't come back for anymore and stayed near the drinks and desserts...it was really funny how she let one dirty look that she deserved actually get to her and make her decide to stay away! The real kicker is, she and another girl in my grade were there, and when they finished eating the friend brought her tray of junk to the trash can where I was standing with my mother and Grandma (the captain stayed away, she wouldn't even look at us.) This other girl said they were too little and skinny to eat all their food, then wanted someone else to throw their trash away because she would feel bad if she dropped something, and of course my grandmother and I did it instead of telling her off. But my mother, she is very outspoken and she said "Well, little and skinny girls can throw their own trash away!" I think the girl tried to laugh but it didn't take them long to get out of there after that, and I thought it funny that they were actually afraid of that! They act so proper and dainty, then disrepect adults and get it right back. Honestly, it is because of behavior like that that has caused me to drift away from other girls at my school, the ones in my grade are just to snobby and prissy for me.

Well, that's all that has happened since my last blog...except for Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett dieing! Farrah was expected but not Michael Jackson..may they both rest in peace. How has everyone else's summer been?
