It's time to be... NINJA!!

Sorry I haven't been posting lately. It's just that I was overloaded with homework on the first week of school. Yeah I know. It sucks. This is how I feel like right now:

I didn't know what to talk about so I decided, "Why not do a post about ninjas and some style tips?" Anyways, here's a funny story. One day, my friends and I were obsessed with ninjas. We started to act like ninjas and once, I did a 'ninja kick' and failed!! I feel right down on my bum. It was really funny and stuff. I said I pulled a 'Cierra.' My friend is Cierra and she's really clumsy so when one of us falls, we call it a Cierra. Anyways, everybody started to that and we just ended up having fun. I'm pretty sure my bottom was sore after that though.

Fashion Tip:
To keep your nail polish on longer, just don't pick at it and be careful of what you do that can chip it. I keep my nail polish on for about 3 months! Impressive right?

P.S. Please click on the egg on the side toolbar! My last one died and I really want to hatch my first dragon. Just click it at least once a day. That's all I care!

Petpet for Vice President!

You arrive on a street and you see a newsboy is walking on the street. "Extra! Extra! Read all about it. Petpet running for vice president!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You arrive at a news room with reporters everywhere and Petpet at a stand. She just finished her speech. "Any questions from the reporters?"
Reporter askes, "What are you running for Miss Petpet?!"
"I'm running for vice president on for my Guitar 2 class."
"Why do you have a president, vice president, etc. for guitar class?"
"It's because my teacher wants to have a student in charge if she's gone for the day."
Another reporter blurted, "Why should people vote you for VP?!?!"
"I just made that speech! Weren't you listening? Anyways, no more questions for today."
Reporters just keep asking questions.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hi everyone. That was just kinda a dialouge of how a really big election would have been like if I was running for vice president but most of it was true. I did run for vice president for guitar class. It's a big deal to have to job of VP but a bigger job for President. Anyways, I had to make a speech in front of the class so that they can decide who they want running the class. (It was in front of 13-14 people so it wasn't that bad.) I was competing with one of my friends and another one of my friends got the job of President. The election happened right after the speech and guess who won?! It was...... *drumroll.* my friend! JK. It was me!! So now I'm VP for guitar 2 and my friend is President. Isn't that just perfect?

It's a big responsiblity so I better get to work. See ya!

♥ Vice President, Petpet.

Ultimate Phantom Snails and Fashion!!

Sorry for the weird title but that's what I'm going to be talking about today. So I just recently had a poll before school started. These are the results:

What would you want to see more of in Petpet's Room?
More about Petpet's life 3
More about Petpet's style 4
More book reviews 3
More about TV shows Petpet watches 1
More of Petpet's school relationship 2
Other 3

So now I might do some more of my fashion tips and things about a girl's fashion. Anyways, I bet some of you would like to know about my 2nd day of school. Here's how it went.....

I started off with science with my teacher, Mr. C. Our class was some-what big but we have a lot of talkers so we barely got everything done. At one point, a guy in my talked about eating snails which was gross. I've tried it before and I didn't like it one bit.

Next was math. I wasn't excited about that at all!! It went on forever but then it was lunch. One of my favorite times at school. Then came my favorite class of the day. Guitar!! I love playing guitar even if I just started last year. I love music, so I love guitar. This year my teacher decided that we would be doing Guitar 1 and Guitar 2. I'm in Guitar 2, (that means it's the more advanced.) We have a concert every season at the school and each time there's a different theme. For the fall concert, we are doing Halloween things and this year is all from Phantom of the Opera! I have never watched it but I want to someday. Last year we did Thriller Theme from Micheal Jackson. It was really fun and I'm really hoping to Phantom of the Opera.

Last class of the day was gym. We had to play ultimate frisbee. Most of us already knew how to play from last year so it was kinda easy. I was all sore from it on Friday since I don't excersise very much during the summer. (Don't tell my gym teacher that!!)

Well, what did you think of my day and what kinda style tips would you want from me??

First Day of School!!!

Today was my first day of 8th grade and boy was it exciting! Walking into the school once again had kinda a familiar feeling. I got to school early (which I normally don't) so I could chat with my friends for awhile. We chatted for about 5-10 minutes about our summer, schedules, and other stuff. It was almost time to go to class so we went to the classrooms (except for some of the 7th graders since they didn't know the teachers.)

I had Spanish for first period and this teacher is new to me since I've never had her. She taught differently than my other teacher which was kinda a big change for me. We did some things but the thing that I remembered most that we had to change our name to more Spanish sounding names!! Many of the guys chose Jose, Pepe, Carlos, etc. I didn't have to change my name since it was already Spanish. (Asian girl with a Spanish name!!)

I had History which the time kinda dragged a bit since I already had her last year and we already did the back to school things. I found out that I had some of the worse people in my class this year. Some people are just too noisy, annoying, and..... well...... weird. After that was lunch!! I was really hungry and all so I was glad to eat. =)

Next 2 classes were English and Journalism. English seemed like it went on forever since I finished my work already and there was and hour of class left. I just chatted with friends and look at my teacher's baby picture. (She just had one!! So cute!!) This is my first year taking Journalism so I was kinda excited. Journalism is just basically a class for the school newspaper. I've always wanted to know more about news reporters and all so I was kinda glad I got the class. (It' might improve my blogging skills.)

Well, it was a pretty good day don't you think?........... Except............. for................. HOMEWORK!! Yep. Homework on the first day for all the classes. The thing is that we have disclosures which are just papers we have to let parents sign and read.

Well. I better get going. Got something to do....

Book Review #3: Ever

I have just recently finished reading Ever by Gail Carson Levine. This book is about how a god named Olus falls in love for a mortal named Kezi. They soon meet each other and fall madly in love but Kezi is soon to die. She has to find a way to stay alive and be with her love. The god has to help her survive by trying to over come fears.

I really liked this book because it talks a lot about bravery and it has a unique tale. I recommend this book for teens that can handle romance and adventure. This book was one that I could not put down!! (Which doesn't happen a lot.)

Here's the description in the book:
Falling in love is easy..... even for Kezi, though she knows her days are numbered. And head-over-heels, come-what-may love is inevitable if her heart's desire is Olus, the Akkan god of the winds. But accepting death is hared, especially when romance is new. Love brings Kezi the will to fight her fate. Love gives Olus the strength to confront his fears. She questions her faith and seeks truth in dark places. He suffers a god's trial when she needs a champion. Together-- and apart-- they encounter spiders with webs of iron, the cruel lord of the land of the dead, the mysterious god of destiny, and the tests of the Akkan gods. If they succeed, they will be together; but if they fail, Olus will have to endure the ultimate loss, and Kezi will have to make the supreme sacrifice.

Gail Carson Levine has been writing for all her life. She's written many books and even got a Newbery Honor award for Ella Enchanted. She's also written princess princess tale books (which I've read.) You can visit her website at http://www.gailcarsonlevinebooks.com/

I need more book reviews!! Please comment and tell me some of your favorite books and I might feature it in the next book review!!

Summer is almost an end.....

Today at 10 AM, I went back to school to get my new locker number, schedule, and rentals. It was kinda good to see the school and hallways again. First, we paid for the rentals. The line was short since it was only a couple of 8th graders. I saw some of my greatest friends. I haven't seen them all summer so it was really nice to see them. Then, I went to get my schedule and locker number. I was kinda excited to see what classes I got. Here's my scheule:

A Day:
1. Spanish
2. US History
3. English
4. Journalism

B Day:
1. Science
2. Math 8 Honors
3. Guitar
4. PE

I was pretty satisfied with my schedule. A Day would be more of what I call a 'language' day. B Day would be a 'fun' day. I'm kinda excited to see who are in my class. I know that some friends are in the same class as me.

Lockers: I got a bottom locker again. It's not that bad but I'm near the same people again, it's just a different area. I can't and can wait until school. Just because I'm in school, doesn't mean I won't blog!! See ya around.

Uniforms............. Ugh

It's back-to-school shopping again. (Yay! My favorite time of the year. [I was sarcasing.]) Anyways, I've been lazy this year so I haven't quite got all the supplies I need. Probably need to start the checklist. Let's see..... I need pencils, binders, loose note paper (lots of it!), notebooks, organizers..... Yep. I'm ready for supply shopping!

Last week I went uniform shopping. Normally, I would be looking for the latest styles but since my school has uniforms, it's a whole other story. According to some parents and teachers, uniforms are suppose to help kids focus better. It's kinda true but I miss looking different than everyone else. The thing is, you always have the same outfit with at least one person! What a fashion crisis for girls. :p It really doesn't bother me too much but I don't like uniforms as much as I like my jeans and tees.

There's some variety in what we can wear but not much. The tops have to be polo (which kinda sucks) and they have to be in red, white, light blue, or navy blue. For the bottoms, they have to be black, navy blue, or khaki. I personally don't like the pants that they make but I like the skirts. I don't wear skirts much though because I'm not a girly girl.

Back-to-school registration is on Tuesday! Finally, I get to see all my friends and my schedule. For 7th grade last year, they didn't have the schedules ready so I didn't know my class until the first day. I hope they don't do it again this year. Well, I better get shopping!!

It's a working progress....

My blog has reached over 200 views and it's only been 3 weeks since I started! This is a real great improvement to me!! Thank you for all your support and viewing! This means a lot to me and I promise to try and post at least once every week!!

Anyways, this is just another announcement post so now for the announcements!

First of all, I'm going to be going to school soon. We have a back-to-school meeting on Tuesday the 9th and I can and can't wait to see some people again! For those who are wondering, I'm going to 8th grade this year and I go to a charter school. (It's just a school that you have to sign-up and get picked.) Now I have to wear uniforms again. : p Well, I can't wait to see my schedule! My first day will be on the 17th so now my summer is about to end. Since I will be busy with school and music for most of the time, I might not post as much but I will never stop! I will post at least once a week and try to do most of them on Fridays.

Second, I think my room needs a little more of something and less of something. I've been doing book reviews, America's Got Talent things, and my life things so far. I need to know how many are reading what so I made a couple of polls on the sides. Please vote so I know what I need to improve.

Third of all, I have been pondering about adding more members to my room. I haven't made all the arrangements but I will tell you all when I do.

Lastly, I want to know what you think I need more in my room. Please comment and tell me what you want more from me! I'll be working on a new look on my profile too so tell me if you have suggestions on how I should make it look!

Also, please check out one of my friends' blog!! Calypso2krystal.blogspot.com

Happy Birthday Dad!!

Today is my dad's birthday!! He didn't get anything really special but all he needs is love from our family. Since today is a Monday, we celebrated his birthday yesterday. He got a surprise birthday cake. Here's how it looks like......

It looks yummy right?? This is year 44. It's hard to remember his birthday every year since he uses a Chinese calendar. The Chinese calendar is kinda like the Lunar Calendar and it is a bit more complicated than the one that we usually use.

Anyways, you wanna know what's inside?? It's strawberry ice cream on the top and on the bottom it's vanilla cake. (We aren't a huge fan of chocolate ice cream.) Want some?? Here's a plate. :)
