Hi! I was at Fantasy of Trees yesterday! And today! Our dance went great, we did a really good job, and I am glad of that. I volunteered today helping people decorate cookies! That was lots of fun. I really enjoyed that.
At the moment I am super full as I just finished a big supper. I think it is best to only get super small portions when you've got lots and lots of food because I wanted to get to eat everything that I wanted. I had turkey and dressing and cranberry sauce and green beans and mashed potatoes and gravy and corn and rolls and pumpkin pie and Cool Whip and cherry pie and ice cream. Yum! I am fuuuullllll.
How was your Thanksgiving?

Hi!!!
Hello y'all. Guess what! I got the Glee soundtrack!!!! Yay! I just finished listening to it a minute or two ago; my sister is now listenin' to her Taylor Swift CD.
Fantasy of Trees is tomorrow!!! EEEE!!! Yay I am so excited! I sure hope we don't screw it up. Its a really cool dance. We are dressed up as elves teehee.
Angel Tree:
Girl 1: Age 4, wants age appropriate books. +
Boy 1: Age 4, wants a stuffed animal. +
Girl 2: Age 4, wants a winter coat or jacket, size 6X.
Girl 3: Age 3, wants a winter outfit (likes purple), size 4 or 4T.
Girl 4: Age 5, wants the Tinkerbell movie. +
Girl 5: Age 1, wants a stuffed animal (teddy bear). +
Girl 6: Age 5, wants a baby doll. +
Still gotta get a winter outfit and coat. I hope I got enough money. I really dunno how much I got left for sure, I need to count it all up and my other spending money up to to figure that out. I got a bunch of new stuffed animals for everybody. I am very happy for that! I still need to read the books I got for the kids. I think I will make everyone a card too. Once I have everything, I think I will take a picture of it all together to see what it looks like.
I also figured out that I am gonna be on my school's newspaper! Not sure what all I will be doing for it yet, but I'm excited.
Lol I am listening to Love Story by Taylor Swift at the moment, and it is funny cuz I just finished reading Romeo and Juliet at school today. Haha.

Angel Tree
Sooo, I had an awesome weekend! I went to the mall on Saturday! That was loads of fun. I got two really pretty head bands, a Christmas tree neckleace, and a Labyrinth t shirt!!!! YAY!!!
I also got some Angel Tree cards with the kids that I am gonna shop around for, so they can have some Christmas presents. Here they are:
Girl 1: Age 4, wants age appropriate books. +
Boy 1: Age 4, wants a stuffed animal. +
Girl 2: Age 4, wants a winter coat or jacket, size 6X.
Girl 3: Age 3, wants a winter outfit (likes purple), size 4 or 4T.
Girl 4: Age 5, wants the Tinkerbell movie.
Girl 5: Age 1, wants a stuffed animal (teddy bear). +
Girl 6: Age 5, wants a baby doll. +
Yeah, that's 7 in all. Crap I guess I got too much, being that so far my Angel Tree fund is $35. But I wanna help these little kids! They need my help, and I will help them. But dang, finding prices that are actually priced at a good price *cough not Walmart cough though they think they are cough* is like findin' a needle in a haystack. Or hay in a needlestack. Lol not the second one, none of this is hurting me, and I just wanna help.
My sister got 2 of the Angel Tree thingies also.
On Sunday, we went to the park and played there for a little while. After that we went to the bookstore and got some books for the little girl that wants books. Luckily, we ran into one of I guess I would say alma mater teachers at the store and she had some books she was gonna take to the school and found them in the free bin and they were in good condition so she gave them to me and I bought some books and now have a bunch of books for each kid to get at least 1 and the one that wanted books to get several. That is good.
Yesterday night I looked thru my closet and found 2 stuffed animals with tags still on them and in good condition. A horse is for boy #1 and a bear is for girl #6.
Today I went to a thrift store after school to look for clothes for girl #3 and possibly girl #2 but alas, there wasn't anything there that worked. BUT, we went to Big Lots afterwards and I still didn't find those things, but I did find baby dolls for 5 bucks and bought a couple of them. I got one for girl #6 since that is what she wanted, and the other for girl #3. Just clothes is not enough, no little kid, especially not a 3 year old would want just clothes. Hers is in purple because that is her favorite color, and girl #6's is in pink. Both dolls are very nice and I know I would have liked them if I were younger. Actually I still would like them.
Anyway, this means I have gotten 4 kids down, 3 to go. YAY!!! This is good, but I don't have very much money. I started with $35 and that isn't much to start with. Now I only have $21.51 left. But I also used some other money when I got books because I made other purchases and only used part of the Angel Tree fund. I still need to get the Tinkerbell movie and a winter coat, plus a winter outfit.
Ugh, this is a handful! But I like it.

DONE WITH MY HOMEWORK!!! YAY!!
EEEHHH! I am done with my homework for the weekend! I love being already done with it and the weekend isn't even close to bein' over with!!! YAY!
So far my Angel Tree fund is something like $35 but some of that is just because I felt like adding more to it. I hope to get to babysit soon again, and have more money and add more money to the fund I am saving up.
Anyway now, not only am I dancing at Fantasy of Trees, but I am also volunteering there on Thanksgiving actually. I am lookin' forward to it! I hope it's lots of fun. I also hope the dance goes well and is lots of fun too, because I am so looking forward to it!!!!
What's to come of this weekend?
I dunno but I plan to have fun.
Rant of the Week: I don't like not having any friends (does not include acquaintances or people crushing on me XD) in honors biology. It is especially annoying because we have labs and that means lab partner. uuuggghhh. Plus there are people in there that are flat out rude to me, and I have done NOTHING that I know of to be rude to them.
Rave of the Week: I haven't had a lab that needs a partner in a long time, and it doesn't seem like there could be a lab for what we will be getting into next as it is DNA. YAY!!!

DANCE!
Hello y'all!
Ugh I am not too gleeful for the fact that the World Series has been on in the place of Glee on tv. I think playing baseball is fun, but watching it- not so much. Thats just me. Apparently the "world" loves it since it is on instead of Glee and is called the World Series. Whatever, at least it will be back on next week. Or at least it should be. I hope it is.
Anyway, why would I entitle my blog post "DANCE!" if it is just about complaining about the World Series, you ask? Because I am not finished yet!
I am gonna perform at the Fantasy of Trees!!! We are doing a dance for hip hop there on the Wednsday before Thanksgiving, November 25th, some time after 3:00. I AM SO EXCITED!!! YAY!!!!! I hope it will be a lot of fun, I think it will be.
