Hello, do you have Dr. Pepper in a can?
|
My friend, Kelsey, held a slumber party for her thirteenth birthday. There were six girls that spent the night. It was supposed to be a slow dance, but due to the fact that only one boy actually showed up, we danced along to the Cupid Shuffle, Cha Cha Slide and Lady Gaga. That night, we called people. If you got a call from someone, it wasn't us. I think that Manisha started that. I was completely ignorant of the situation until I walked into the living room to find Manisha asking my innocent cousin if he had Dr. Pepper in a can. At around eleven, everyone was on the floor looking at all the yearbooks and deciding who they wanted to marry. We were being kind of loud. We know this from all of the complaints we received from the other room, where people were trying to sleep. So we decided to play the Quiet Game. We sat in a circle and were quiet. However, one by one, we lost. I was the first one out because Allie called me. She was right next to me. Then Manisha lost because she was looking at the 2009 CHEC yearbook and she suddenly shrieked, "He is so cute!!!" She was out. Then Rena fell asleep on a half deflated air mattress. Manisha flopped the opposite edge of the mattress over Rena to make a taco. Kelsey, who had been wrapped in a blanket on the couch, started laughing. Everyone else started laughing along with her, so that ended the game. So, of course, we decided to play a game that was sure to be quieter than the Quiet Game. We played Truth or Dare. I almost stood in water that Christian had put his feet in. But I didn't do it because I said, 'I won't do it.' So I just called my cousin, who didn't answer. Then Kelsey called Ducky and they talked for two hours. Kelsey had gotten a Ripstik that we were riding up and down the hall. I feel so talented. I figured it out in fifteen minutes. I'm not that great, but I wasn't falling. Almost everyone else knew how to do it, so we made Kelsey get off the phone and order a pizza. At four in the morning, we decided that we should go to sleep. There were supposed to be three people on the couch, and one person for each of the two air mattresses. But Allie decided that she didn't want to be stuck on a air mattress. So she shoved me over and fell asleep on the already overloaded couch. I woke up at about five in the morning because she was talking in her sleep and she wouldn't stop. Normally I wouldn't have cared. But her face was next to my ear so it sounded like she was yelling something about, 'stepping away from the court.' I went to the other mattress and fell asleep until nine. Manisha, Taylor, Kelsey and I were up and stuffing our faces with bagels. Allie, Rebecca and Rena were still asleep. They eventually woke up. Manisha went home and the rest of us played games and talked until Taylor's mom came. Then mine came, and I left, though I would have preferred not to. <>< Jess |

The Cops Never Think It's As Funny As You Do..
|
The cops do NOT like rain dances. I know that for a fact. Anna was invited to a dance and asked if she could bring a friend. So she and I went. On the way there, we noticed that to the West there was a large wall of dark clouds that promised rain. According to us, if it rained, then we wouldn't have to dance. So we decided to attract the rain with a rain dance. Anna and her brother, Mark, and I started waving our arms in a make-shift rain dance. It was the best we could do in a truck. It just so happened, that a man had gotten pulled over. As we passed him on the highway, the cop glanced over to see us waving our arms and making faces in the back window of the truck. The look on his face was priceless. It never occurred to us that he might have thought that we were drunk or high on something. A few miles later, we stopped for a light. Suddenly, he was behind us. I hope Murphy was happy with his Law. Got a warning for speeding on a road that didn't have a speed limit sign. Anna and I turned and made a face at him, then got in trouble for being disrespectful. When we finally got to the party, you could see the clouds in the distance. We were the first ones there. We went inside and were anti-social for about an hour. By that time, people were there and ready to dance. Since it would be considered rude to refuse to dance if asked, we stayed inside and watched the boys play Guitar Hero. The boys found out that it was raining. They dropped everything and ran outside. A few minutes later, they had not come back. Anna suggested that we go see what was keeping them. When we stepped outside we realized exactly how hard it was raining. The boys were jumping on a trampoline. Anna is a BAD influence. But so am I. So it's O.K. She ran to the trampoline and climbed on and threw her sandals off the edge and said, 'Come on, Jessie! It will be fun!'. I didn't want to at first because I wanted to keep my shirt clean (we had just bought it that morning), but then again, that is what washing machines are for, right? We didn't really see the risks of jumping on a wet, metal trampoline that was severely overloaded with teenagers, in the middle of the night in a large storm that was complete with lightning. Well we did see. We just didn't care. It was Anna and I and five boys. It soon turned into a seven person wrestling match over a someone's hat. It was fun because I could shove them, but they wouldn't shove me because I'm a girl. *evil laughter* That only worked for a little while though. Eventually they stopped caring. Tomboyishness rocks. While all this was happening, everyone else was dancing inside. After the party, I spent the night at Anna's and made more Richard Simmons calls. So if you got a random call with a man yelling, then it was a playback of a Richard Simmons video. Sincerely, Jess |

My Apologies.
|
My apologies for neglecting my blog for so long. Except for the 'There Are Some Things Money Can't Buy' post. Recently we were invited to a large party at my cousins' house. We enjoyed that very much. My mom left early because my dad had to work that night, but I stayed late because my cousin, Nikki, offered to take me home. I didn't actually leave the party until midnight. A few people and I got bored and put together a large game of hide and seek. That didn't last long because there were too many people and we forgot who was It. Later, at around eleven, someone found some sparklers. The boys found a lighter and soon figured out that the the sparklers didn't work. So, with that knowledge, they took them apart and dumped all of the gunpowder into some aluminum foil and crumpled it up. Then they cut a small hole and lit a match and shoved it in. So if, depending on where you live, you heard whistling and what sounded like gunshots and teenagers screaming, 'Run!', that's what it was. Then (with permission) we lit a small bonfire. Everyone walked away after it died down a little. Except for a boy who I will call 'Ducky'. He was doing some kind of rain dance around it and waving his arms. So then he and another cousin of mine went inside to get out his guitar. Some people were still talking loudly about how awesome the 'explosion' had been. Someone came over from the front yard and glared at us with his arms crossed. There was dead silence. The adults were praying in the front yard, and had been praying for the past two hours. The silence was broken by Ducky when he ran outside loudly singing out the Christmas song, 'Grandma Got Run Over By Reindeer'. When he stopped, he then understood the situation. I can't imagine the adults' surprise when they were quietly praying and suddenly they hear, "Light the match. It's gonna blow! Run!!" soon followed by an explosion and whistling and more yelling. Then a teenage boy yelling out, "Grandma got run over by a reindeer! Walking home from our house Christmas eve..." Almost everyone went inside to play the Wii. Ducky gave the guitar to my friend, who came over to the swing set, sat on the slide and sang to me (he was really good), then my cousin came over and sat in the empty swing and said, "Sup?!". I fell asleep in their SUV on the way to my house. :P It was a lot of fun. Thank you to my cousins for inviting us. :) Jess |

Operation Water Balloon
|
We had another sleepover at Anna's. We broke the record of staying-up-late time. We stayed up until 3:14 AM. Earlier that day we had met at the mall and shopped, went home and watched Bride Wars and laughed so hard we were practically screaming. Then we watched the awards on TV. GO TAYLOR SWIFT :) That ended at about one in the morning and her brother, Mark, came in because he didn't want to watch Australia with their parents. So we hung out and colored with markers until two. We got in bed and really intended to sleep, but we started talking about how life was so much easier when we were little. And how we couldn't understand some people, no matter how hard we tried. We talked more, and got a little annoyed at certain events of our lives, and talked about tanning lotion until it was three o'clock and we were practically talking in our sleep. I think she fell asleep while I was talking. I think. The next day we got up and saw her brother and four of his friends outside. In the other room, in a bottle, was about three-hundred water balloons. We filled up a few, not really intending to throw them. We went around the house with one in each of our hands, and hid behind a shrub. By then we were plotting an ambush. They had no idea. We were staring at them and wondering how they could be so ignorant about what was coming. We ran out screaming and heaving tiny balloons at them. They were so little that they bounced off. Jacob caught one and threw it at me (he missed me by a few inches). We ran back the way we came and ran inside and locked all the windows and doors. We found Anna's mom filling more ammunition in the sink. She had filled a bucket with balloons. :D We looked out the window at the boys tearing around the yard, finding balloons. They saw us looking through the window and declared war. So while they were filling up theirs, we plotted. We were feeling cruel, so we found two cans of coke and opened those and stood by the window in plain view. They spotted us in two seconds and screamed, 'COKE!!!!!' We closed the blinds so they couldn't see us, and ran out the front door, hauling the bucket after us. Since they live next to a church, we walked down the block and along the highway, around the church and preschool. We went on the church property, and walked though the halls and courtyard, and hid behind a huge tree. We left the bucket there, took a few, and ran along the road. I'm so surprised that they didn't see us. If they had turned around they would have seen us. We threw them and missed. They started yelling and throwing theirs at us. We were out of balloons, so we ran back to the tree, but we didn't expect them to follow us. Boys shouldn't be able to run that fast. I seriously underestimated them about how fast they were. We were running barefoot along a white gravel road along the busy highway in in jeans and pajama tops, dragging a full bucket of water, with five yelling boys chasing us. I wonder what the people on the highway were thinking. That gravel really hurt. Eventually the gravel road joined the highway, and we were about a thirty yards away from the house. The only way to the house was through a field of burrs. Anna ran along the fence without any problems. I got at least ten burrs in one foot with the boys right behind me yelling and flinging balloons. I saw Anna make it to the her yard, jump over a bush, and dive inside and slam the door. I barely made it to the yard before the boys decided that pain didn't matter. They were running through the burrs toward me and the house. So with about three or four burrs still on me, I ran to the door, found it locked, ran around the house and went in the back door to find Anna on the couch yelling, 'Where were you!?'. But we got revenge. We let them get bored and start throwing them at each other for about an hour, so they could use up all of their balloons. Then we went to the pool, got bored after 20 minutes and came back and gathered more ammunition while they were still at the pool. When they got back we attacked em. Till next time, Jess |

Slumber Parties
|
Anna, Tabitha, Elizabeth and I had a slumber party. Why are they called 'slumber parties' when there is hardly any sleeping involved?? It was at Anna's house and it lasted two nights. Anna and I were playing Guitar Hero until two in the morning. It's addicting! And hard. I guess that's why they named it Guitar Hero. Because you really feel like a hero if you actually make it to the end. You forget to blink. I went without blinking for three minutes and spent five minutes after that crying. So when we were falling asleep with our eyes open, we decided that it was time to go to bed. So I was half asleep and Anna 'accidentally' hits me with a pillow. I hit her back and a few seconds later we were screaming and falling off the bed. It was really dark, so when I fell off the bed and onto their dogs chew toy, -which squeaked- I thought that I had stepped on a mouse. I started screaming and jumped back onto the bed and landed on Anna. I thought that she was on the floor and didn't know that she was still on the bed. So eventually, -after laughing for a few minutes more- we went to sleep at 2:46AM. The next day Tabitha and Elizabeth came over. We played more Guitar hero and watched movies until night time. Then we found a pizza and Anna's mom brought a huge bowl of M&M's. Everything was gone in about an hour. Then we decided to watch another movie. Anna and Tabitha were in Anna's room picking the movie and me and Elizabeth were in the living room playing with the dying iTouch. Anna calls us and says, 'We picked out a great movie! You'll love it!'. It was a Richard Simmons exercise video. So Tabitha comes up with the best idea ever. We should call random people and share the wealth of Richard Simmons' music. Why not? We got out the phone and called Tabitha's cousin and let him listen to a few minutes of exercise music. Bad idea. He was fishing. Tabitha says that when her cousin is fishing, do not bother him. Needless to say, he hung up after he said in a flat voice, 'I'm fishing.' But nobody else hung up. :) So we got to talk to a few people. Elizabeth was talking to someone pretending to be an exercise company: Hello! This is the Richard Simmons exercise company! We turn muscle into fat! I mean 'fat into muscle'. My bad. Anyway, would you like to buy?! I was kinda sad that I didn't have my cousin's number. He would have been perfect. We were laughing so hard that we were wondering if eating so much pizza, M&M's and carrots and Coke was such a great idea. We did that for about and hour and a half, then we got bored and put in The Chronicles of Narnia. That didn't really last long because Anna's little brother, Mark, brought an army of friends over and they were banging on the door demanding to be shown how to play the Wii. Anna left to show them how to turn it on. After about an hour they left. :D Then we argued over watching Eragon or Narnia again. Narnia won. :) Later we were playing Truth or Dare and I couldn't think of a dare for Elizabeth. So asked me to make her something from the kitchen to eat. What a great idea! We all went to the kitchen and dismantled the fridge. We put olives, cherries, ketchup, ice cream, milk, pickles, and some sort of red sauce (It didn't have a label) into a bowl and presented it to her. We couldn't make her eat it. So we gave her some chips to go with it. Everyone was crowded around her -Tabitha had a video camera- waiting. She tasted it. And she liked it. That was so disappointing. So we piled on the bed and talked while Elizabeth stared at the 'Cutie Page', as she called it, in the new CHEC yearbook. Go figure. :) We really do anything the next day except go to the mall and then go home. That was SO much fun :) Jess |

CHEC
|
I'm blogging again. Finally. I guess that we got a cold front. It's not cold, but it's a nice change from the 90 degree weather a few days ago. It will most likely be the last one we'll get this year.. The CHEC play went really well, too. I'm not sure if I wrote about that. It was a LOT of fun! I don't see why it has to be so dark backstage. Well I do see, but I wish there were light. We did The Lion, The Witch, And the Wardrobe. I thought that it was kinda funny that when we had to pretend to be scared because the witch said, 'All Narnia will perish under fire and water!', someone (I won't say who) started singing Jingle Bells. Just loud enough for the people on stage to hear. Me and a few others started laughing. We obviously weren't supposed to be laughing when our home was about to get burned and flooded! So we started coughing to cover up our laughter. It was scary because that was the actual performance... Till next time, Jess |

Blogger's Block.
|
Hello.. I can't write today. Well, at least I can't think of anything. It should be called blogger's block instead of writer's block. At least from a bloggers' point of view. Today I.... ..slept in because my rotten alarm didn't go off, saved Daisy May from eating a plastic thing (I couldn't identify it), went to a garage sale held by a friend and bought yarn, went to a friends' house and got a tail and ears made (thanks Janel!), and went to art class and got smacked on the head by Anna, who said, 'you're in big trouble!'. I still don't know why I'm in so much trouble. And found my script for Drama... again. I shouldn't have posted that I had lost my script on Facebook because I was told, 'you shouldn't still need it!' Had a funny memory of being told, 'Jessie Suzanne, your blond roots are showing.' Then pondered the meaning of 'memories'. And had a great time with my mom. My mom and I swapped cell phones, because she had given hers to my dad and she got a new one. But she didn't like the new one. So my dad got my phone and he gave his to my mom and my mom gave hers to me. That's confusing. So now my dad has my razr and I have a my mom's red one. My mom is happy to have her phone back. Huh. So much for blogger's block. Till next time, Jess |

Progress Pics of a Cherry.
|
Earlier today, I had wanted to paint something. I spent at least an hour brainstorming and eventually decided on a cherry. I thought that it was kinda funny that I had a HUGE canvas and had painted a tiny cherry in the corner. :) I don't think that it's a waste, though. Because me or someone else can go over the whole thing one day when one feels more inspired. I was bored waiting for the paint to dry, so I took progress pics.... .....that refuse to load. I'll try again tomorrow. Till then, ~Jess |

Rain!
|
I'm back..... It looks like it might rain!! I hope it will! But it looked like it was going to rain yesterday and it didn't. :( The last time we had a storm was a few weeks ago. I was in art class when it came and it was pretty bad... we were expecting hail, I think. But we didn't get any. But it was raining hard. It hadn't rained that hard in a long time. But I and my friend Anna had to walk across the yard of the building to get to our cars. (I always have bad luck, so of course the cars were really far away.) Anna had brought her umbrella and offered to share, so we started the walk across the yard. The second we got around the corner of the building, her umbrella turned inside-out (it was that windy) I have never seen that happen before.. I thought that only happened in movies. So we ran back around the corner where the wind wasn't so strong and fixed it. So this time we put it in front of us and started walking, and ran right into a telephone pole. By that time we were laughing so hard that we were crying. And I actually felt like crying later because we were under huge magnolia trees and I got smacked in the face with the biggest leaf ever. A little ways later she stepped on my foot and tripped me and I fell. I was hanging on to her arm, so she fell too. Then later I stepped on her foot and tripped her. (I wasn't out for revenge. It was an accident.) But she didn't fall. The umbrella turned inside-out two more times. We started screaming every time we heard thunder, or saw lightning, because we were sure that it would hit the trees above us and then we would be toast. Then we got to our cars. Her mom's car was parked a few spaces away from mine, so we had to split up. And she took her umbrella with her. So I got hit with a few more leaves and I was at my mom's car. *whew* We were going to go to the mall after that, but we decided not to because it was raining too hard. And I don't think that I would have wanted to go anyway because I was wet and had mascara smeared all over my face. I think that it was the water-proof kind. O_o Anyhow, it was... fun. Also quite painful, though. Jess |

Daisy and Sam
|
Here are those pictures of Daisy and Sam:
Samantha is below. This was taken last Christmas. She wasn't happy about the hat as you can see...  Now Daisy is below and she is sniffing a wisteria bloom. She wasn't really interested in the flower itself, so I waved it to make it look more interesting to her. But when she came and sniffed it, she sneezed on it and walked away. Silly dog.  Well those are my pets. I will be posting more of them soon. Till next time, Jess |
