Happy 15th (to me!)

As this post hits the blog at exactly 12:34 (notice the one-two-three four? pretty cool) I will be sitting in math class. Yay. At this moment, I will also turn fifteen. So what can I say? Happy birthday to me :)

Birthday Part One

Tomorrow is my 15th birthday!!!! 

I'm really excited despite the annoying fact that it's the first day back to school after our lovely vacation. Anyway. Yesterday, four friends, Anna, Lucy, Isabella and Hannah, came over to celebrate a bit. We had a very good, but extremely LOUD (*cough* lucy *cough* anna *cough*) time. 

Here are some pictures:

First, my mom made me a very very yummy chocolate and mint chocolate glazed cake, upon my request...er...demand. Of course, once the cake was all baked and cooled, I just had to do some decorating...in treble clef fashion.

After dinner we played a great game of Apples to Apples, and wonders of wonders....look what won THIS round:

Isabella ended up winning overall with Hannah coming in second. We had fun :)

Today i'm going to go and see the movie True Grit with Olivia, and tomorrow it's back to school.

Yuck.

Oh Please...

Goodness gracious I need a break. No, not from blogger, I just got off that break, but a break from the regular, tiring, day to day work. 

Thankfully, February vacation is fast approaching.

Unfortunately, Friday at 1:50pm can NOT come soon enough.

I need a break from getting up at five-thirty.

I need some just easy relaxing time- my last three weekends can't even be considered weekends.

I need a week without bio homework.

A week without getting yelled at in band.

A week without taking notes in history.

A week without gym torture.

A week without the english class that makes me want to rip my hair out.

A week without passé composé in french.

A week without tedious geometry proofs.

Yes, I could really use a week off.

I need a week filled with skiing up at Saddleback,

spending the day, carving up the slopes,

taking stunning pictures from the top,

drinking hot chocolate by a huge fireplace,

conquering the awesome terrain park,

doing moguls with XanFan and his friend.

And the nights, spent in comfy sweatpants and cozy shirts,

eating hot pasta and pizza at a local restaurant,

doing some arranging on my laptop,

playing board games with the family.

And the weekends filled with friends,

and no homework to be done,

maybe hanging with Hannah Marie and our friend Serena this weekend,

before heading up north, and when we return,

a couple of fun-filled days before we return to school,

on my 15th birthday.

Oh, how I wish it was Friday, instead of only Tuesday!

Oh how I long for vacation!

Deep Clean (and happier topics)

Today we did some deep cleaning of the house. This means cleaning the basement (*dies*) and dragging everything not-too-heavy out of mine and XanFan's rooms to deep wash the carpet. That's actually probably a good thing since my carpet is supposed to be a nice light aqua and XanFan's a bright yellow and they were both looking rather gray...gross. Plus straightening and cleaning every other room. My mom wanted the house clean (with three out of four people in the family in school this past year, the house was not always up to it's...cleanliness) and XanFan is having his birthday party tomorrow. His actual birthday is on Monday, but the party is tomorrow and it's a sleepover. With eight other boys. Tell me. Does being in the same house as nine ten and eleven year old boys from 4pm to 10am sound like a bundle of fun? Oh please, please, help me.....

But as I mentioned in the title, I have time for happier topics too. :) Such as.....105 followers! Awesome! And the great enthusiasm for the writing contest. The entries that I have read so far are excellent, I can't want to read more. Keep 'em coming! Also, I decided to have a little fun with my profile. First I did change my name to just Cornet Crazie. I mean, why have the 'the' when even I don't use it? And I updated fave books/movies and stuff and wrote a funny little about me. So check out my new profile! Also I'm on the hunt for a new profile pic. Sound good? Haha. (I'm in a good, laughing my head off, mood- can you tell?)

My Birthday Surprises

Wow. I had a great evening last night. My grandmother came over and we started out by having a yummy veggie and bean chili. I got to into great detail about the upcoming talent show, and after that I opened my presents. Mostly I got cool music stuff. My grandmother made me 2 pajama bottoms and a pillowcase out of music note fabric. Got some treble clef jewelry, over the door hanger, socks and t-shirts. But the biggest surprise was a new digital camera! It's a Sony, not an SLR, but about as good as you can get without it being an SLR. I can't wait to play with it some more, but no pics yet because we haven't figured out the connecting the computer to the camera stuff yet. 

14!

This is the wonder of scheduled posts. I have scheduled this to post at exactly 12:34 PM today, the minute *I* turn 14! Fun! My second year in true teenager-dom. :) I'll post about my day later, and do my daybook tomorrow!
