So I laugh. Bye.

Trivia Bulletin

WE INTERRUPT YOU'RE REGULARLY SCHEDULED POST PROGRAM WITH THIS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TRIVIA BULLETIN. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU READ THE POST BEFORE THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY AND READ THE COMMENTS TOO BECAUSE I COMMENTED REALLY LONG AND I WOULD HATE FOR A COMMENT THAT LONG TO BE WASTED ON NOBODY READING IT. ALSO IF YOU ARE ABBY THEN PLEASE READ THE POST BEFORE THIS AND THE POST BEFORE THAT BECAUSE TWO POSTS AGO WAS SPECIALLY POSTED FOR YOU. OKAY? OKAY. NOW HERE'S THE TRIVIA BULLETIN:


Okay I have compiled for you a list of things. And you don't know what these things are. Your job is to find out what these things are via google, the encyclopedia (ha! no way), or your mother or father. And I know that this sounds like a homework assignment or something, or something boring, but you know that once you read the list curiosity will eat away at the inside of you like worms or something similar until you look them all up and know what they are. And then perhaps you will be a little bit smarter (maybe, probably not), and when someone mentions one of things perhaps, you will know exactly what they are talking about and think, hey! i know what that is because of Raisa's blog because I looked it up! So here is the list. Also once you find out what the things are, you have to tell me what they are in your comment. If you already knew what they were, state this also. No cheating! Just look it up.

***Calgary Stampede
***Kaka (NOT Spanish and/or Arabic for poop. Besides that.)
***Alberta oil spill
***The sport that Carrie Underwood's new husband plays
***Zion
***The time that it is right at this moment that you are reading this sentence, in Uzbekistan time.
***Geneva (and what's important about it)
***The African Renassaince Monument
***What exactly are the 7 Wonders of the World? (name them)
***Nanook

Okay, that's all. I will post answers in the next post, or whenever I feel like it!!!! Okay bye.

CANADIANS!!!

ABBY!!! READ THE POST BEFORE THIS PLEASE! AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY! READ THE POST!

So yeah I'm in Canada with my Canadian cousins and Gaby is my age well actually she is 13 but she's going into ninth grade like us because her bday is in January and the cutoff in Canada is February. So yeah. And she says I talk weird like for hot I say HAWT and for not I say NAWT. Which, not really, and she says it like the same. But also she talks weird not me, she has a Canadian accent so pretty much she is the Canadian one not me. And she's like, we make fun of Americans. And I'm like, hahahaha, we make fun of Canadians! So yeah!!! And also we have stuff that they don't have, for example there is no PacSun in Canada which could be really annoying if I for some reason moved here cuz that's like the only place I shop. And other stuff like the don't have Dish Network but some people pirate it which is what I would do because I really like Dish. And other random things like they don't say sag they say lowride. I was like, do guys sag here? And Gaby's like, huh?????? And I'm like, sag! You know! When you're pants are down! And she goes, ohhhh, you mean lowride!!!! I was like, WEIRD CANADIANS. But they do say that's what she said and newb and fail and all the other stuff we do except I haven't heard her say legit yet so I don't think they say that. And she likes Justin Beiber but she's not like obsessed. I was like, hahahahahaaaaaaaaaa he's from Canada. It's kind of disappointing to go to another country when it's pretty much the same as America. Which it is. They do alllllll the same things we do. LIke all the same middle school things. And they like the same music, etc. But Gaby says that the malls in America are better than the ones here. So maybe they don't go to the mall as much as we do? Idk. We DO go to the mall a lot. Well anyway, I'll be back for Saturday in time for my softball tournament hopefully on Saturday and Sunday, and then I will be hanging with friends pretty much the whole entire rest of the summer. Because I didn't do that like at all in the beginning of the summer because of painting my room. Also I'll have my birthday party in which case I'll get to see you alllllll together!!!!!! Okay well bye bye.

OH GOSH.

HARRY POTTER!

My Thoughts, Written Formally

So, as you have read in the title above, I am going to write random thoughts that appear in my mind, but in a formal way, not just here and there like I usually do. And I'm going to use strange metaphors and similes, to make it sound like something you'd read in a book, or like an exerpt that I wrote, not just my thoughts scattered all over.

Right now I am listening to my mother's Hooked On Classics cassette, because she put it on. It is a collection of famous classical songs, played by an orchestra, but with an intense drum beat in the background, so it sounds a bit like rock. I like it a lot; we have a piano version of one of the the arrangements, and I play it occasionally.

As I am sure that you are aware, there is a hutch in front of the place where my computer sits, and the hutch has a mirror in the back, so I can see myself while I'm on the computer. I have just realized that I have extremely prominent collarbones. Also, there is a mole on each of my collarbones, but they are not across from each other. With my necklace hanging down, it looks like a smiley face, with lopsided eyes. Alright, enough of this detailed description of my collarbones.

Last night I attempted to watch The Shining, but I only managed to get through a little bit of it. Let me say one thing: that is perhaps the strangest movie I have ever seen in my life. There is a little boy who has horrible premonitions. For example, there are several scenes that show him tricycling around the empty hotel that the family takes care for. Each of these scenes goes on for at least five minutes, and simply follows the little boy around on his trike, playing intense something-is-going-to-happen music the whole time, and then switches to a different scene. Then, on the third tricycle scene, the boy passes room 237 and stops, eyeing it suspiciously. Slowly, cautiously, he creeps to the door and tries the knob. The intense music reaches a climax and, while the viewer is holding her breath, the door remains locked. Then, with a horrible screeching note on the violin, the screen flashes to an image of two twin girls, about age nine or ten, wearing poufy, old-fashioned blue dresses, with blank expressions on their faces. The little boy gasps, runs back to his trike, and tricycles away. Then the scene switches to something else, equally weird, but barely pertaining to the story. There are several scenes that are odd and play scary music, and you think that something terrible is going to happen, but nothing does. One of these is where the wife and son are playing outside, and they go in to a giant maze made of fifteen-foot tall hedges. The sky is gray and dismal, and the high-pitched, trembling music overpowers the sound of the cheerful mother and son giggling and trying to find their way out of the maze. You are sure that a killer is going to pop out from behind one of the hedges and stab them, but nothing happens. The scene simply ends and another odd scene starts! One more premonition that the boy has: He is tricycling around (again!), when suddenly, at the end of the hallway, he sees the two twin girls. They stand perfectly still and call to him in their creepy, high-pitched voices: Come here Danny! Come and play with us Danny! Come here! All the while, a horrible picture flashes on and off the screen: Danny and his mother, lying dead and bloody in the hallway, with blood all over the walls and floors. The girls' voices are still echoing, Come and play with us Danny! Danny stops, and holds up his pointer finger and looks at it. He wiggles it up and down as if it is talking to him, and says, "Remember, it's not real. It's not real, it will all go away, remember what they told you." Then he turns around and tricycles away for his life. I won't tell you anything else that happens because I really don't feel like typing the rest of the scenes, but let me just say that they get worse, much worse. And I didn't even finish the movie! The whole movie is actually about this family, a father, mother, and their young son, who move into an empty ski hotel in Colorado to be the caretakers during the off-season. There is a terrible snowstorm, the kind the Coloradoans in the mountains are used to, and the family is snowed in. Their telephone line is down, and the only communication they have with the outside world is a radio that connects to a park rangers' station somewhere in the nearest town. The father of the family is a writer, and he takes his work very seriously, though everytime the movie shows him working, he is either sleeping, staring blankly at a wall, or throwing a ball against a wall and catching it over and over again. The movie shows how the father slowly goes mad, yelling and swearing at his poor, innocent, caring wife, and imagining people in the hotel and talking to them, such as Lloyd, the elderly bartender to whom he tells all his problems. Anyway, the movie is really really weird, weird to the point that it isn't really scary, mostly you just wonder what in Hades is going on. You should watch it.







THE END.
