Shots and rehearsals

Lets just start off with, my mom signed me up to get a tetnis shot about 4 months ago, I seriously thought it never was gonna happen but then in science I got a little pink paper from the office telling me to go down to the nurses office. I knew what it was for, and wasn't too exited. Shots are one of my fears. My friend Megan got one too. "OOHHHH ANNIKA! YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS!!!" she shouts. It wasn't THAT exiting, I mean c'mon, shots?! "SHOOOOTTSSS" she yells again with a tune to her word. Thanks for letting the whole class know :) so we go down to the "cozy" old lady nurses office and we wait in a line. I watched people get there arms stabbed with needles, it made me want to throw up. It soon became my turn after Megan had gone and said it doesn't even hurt, but I didn't beleive her. Since when does a shot not hurt?! So I go and sit down, my teeth chattering and they put alchehol on my arm and I looked away as they put the needle in my arm. Yes, it hurt. But I stayed strong! Then they put a blue sponge bob band-aid on my arm and the bell rang. So in language arts, I'm pretty sure my arm was dead, but that wasn't even the worst part! That night my arm hurt so bad. So after school (it was a Friday which means we get out at 1:15) I had play practice until 6:15, it was out first rehearsal so we got in our costumes and everything! It was super fun, I can't wait until the real deal. That night I had a sleepover at my friends house, but we had to wake up at 7:00 because we had to go to play practice AGAIN from 8:30-5:00 and I seriously couldn't lift my arm. But it was exciting and when i got home i went to ambryns soccer game. the next day I took my friend to church again. And then we had family over, ate tortilla soup and brownies and then my dad showed us an episode of h.r. Puff n stuff. That scarred me for life. I think I'll have night nears, it's like old fashioned Barney! Goodbye weekend. I will see you next week. Hope everyone is doing great! Love y'all! -Annie

7:58?!!!!

So here i am... Laying in my bed dreaming about... (I forgot) And then my alarm goes off.... UUHHHG! I HATE YOU STUPID ALARM! Dont worry, you'll wake up, just turn it off. Ya well, dont listen to me, because im wrong. If there is one thing about me it is that, i sleep. Alot. No i did not get my moms sleeping jean, i got my dads.
So i sleep.
Annie wake up!

No its been like 4 miniuts!

Annie! You've gotta get ready for school!

Hold on.

By the way, that was my conscious. That i didnt listen too. So i wake up, because its really annoying me. And i get up, my face laying in drool. and look at my clock. 7:58?!!!! MY CARPOOL COMES AT 8:00!!! and before i could even step out of bed, i hear nala barking. Great, there here, and im in my PJs. So i run down, and my friend laughs, and im still half asleep, she goes back, and i run upstairs. It ruined the whole system! I wake up, I wake my mom up, she wakes ollie up...I wish school started at 9:00, i felt good. :)
So i thought, THERE IS NO WAY THAT I AM GOING INTO MR. THOMPSONS CLASS LATE. Hes the worst teacher in the school. And is my first period. So i waited until my second period, theater. So i did some laundry, cleaned my room, and organized my binder. So it was 9:20 and i began to walk.
It was wet and warm, it felt like spring, i could smell rain, and it acctually turned out to be a good morning, and i wasn't tired in math, which is good.

Ive learned my lesson. Dont press the off button on your alarm, because if your like me...

you wont wake up.

What a weekend...

We got sealed! On saturday! It was so cool. I got there and i sat in a room with all the other little kids that were tapping the fish glass, coloring on the tables, spilling their juice etc. etc. I just sat there after i had gotten into my dress and colored a picture of noahs ark and got halfway through making a cube out of paper, but before i knew it, an hour had passed and it was time to go. So a lady took me and ollie and we went on this bench and sat, and waited. Then she started going on and on about how decorative the doorknob was and then it was quiet and then ollie says "...Cool...I like the Exit sign." She didnt know what to say to that. So then we waited and waited and the door finally opens and we all go through the door with the decorative doorknob, and i was very surprised to see that LOTS OF PEOPLE WERE THERE. I though it was just gonna be My mom, Ollie, My dad, the sealer, and I. So we got sealed, followed with ALOT of hugs, and then we waited out in the cold for a long time for pictures, and then afterwards we went out to eat. It was a jolly day. :)
On Sunday brought my friend to church. She liked it and maybe she will come again. I also had my first talk ever on the stand, i was so nervous that i was shaking my butt off, and felt like throwing up, but i did good. I guess. :)
Afterwards Olya's parents, Igor & Tatiana, came over, and jenny, and Ethan, Jacob, & Ella. We had Borch (the red Russian soup that i don't know how to spell) and beef soup. It was good, and then we had beautiful carrot cake made by ambryn. It all was good. (Oh and on Sunday i started a journal, that way when I'm old as dirt (if i can still read) i can look back before i loose my memory completely.)
Today (Monday) I had no school!!! I vacuumed the stairs and then Ambryn, Tevita, Ollie, Tarl and I went out to lunch. Then ambryn and tevita took me and ollie to the aquarium (SO COOL!!!) As i was petting a slimy gross stingray, MY PHONE FELL INTO THE WATER! :((((((((( AHHHG! We hurried and tool it out and quickly turned it off. :( I hope its ok, or els i am in TRO-BLE. Its sitting in a bag of rice right now.
Well, i guess that's it. I'm super sad that i have school tomorrow. Stupid school. Stupid school. Stupid school. Hope everybody had a good weekend :)

Try Outs

I had to make a decision.

I wanted to be in show choir next year but I didnt want to try out, because it was just you and the teacher in a room, and that sounded really awkward. So she kept passing around this little notebook thing that was for signing up for auditions.

Pff... Pass it on.

But then i decided i kind of wanted to, and on the announcements that day, it said "IF YOU HAVE NOT SIGNED UP FOR SHOW CHOIR! THIS IS YOUR ABSOLUTE LAST CHANCE THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO. SEE MRS. DODGE AT LUNCH TO TRY OUT." So i was super nervouse because i didnt want to try out, so i came up with a plan. I would go to ms. dodge's room at the end of the say and i would say "So was that the last time i could try out?" and she would say "OH NO! no no no get right up here and sing me a song. Now. :)" so the i would have my friends in there too.

So we went at the end of the day to her room, but she wasnt there. Boo hoo. Ok lets go.

But then on the announcments the NEXT morning,
"ALRIGHT STUDENTS, THIS IS THE LAST TIME YOU CAN TR OUT FOR SHOW CHOIR!! SEE MS. DODGE AT LUNCH."

I was determined. I was going to do it.

So i go into her room at lunch and she's like "Oh are you here for show choir?!"
Anyway i hgad to fill out a paper and then she took me into this room that was by the band room. "Ok sing me a song."
Me; starting to sing one "Ehhhh"
Her: "Oh you know what? you sound like your trying to fight the band music lets go to the stage."
Was i really that bad? :(
"Ok NOW sing me a song" she said.
Me: "Um...uhh..."
"Just anything from the play, or the radio, or anything!"
Me: "Twinkle twinkle little star.......(And the rest of the song)"
And it was over. I was glad i tried out...



Even if it meant i had to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

Annika Skywalker

Its a new semester! which is good because that means i have theater and P.E. (I know its a little wierd that i like P.E.) And i hate my 1st period teacher. Mr. Thompson. I dont know one person who DOES! He is like this old hippi or something. And he has a ponytail. :D. I dont have art anymore though. Today we did a pacer test in P.E. and i did good but i didnt feel good and my face was more red than EVER and i could feel my brain pumping really hard. All my BOY teachers call me either Annikin, Skywalker, or Darth Vador. Thats what they say in calling role. Boys and their StarWars. ;)
