Today for family night we read some emails that we received from my cousin Sam. He's on a mission in Cote d'Ivoir (it's in Africa). So you can either click on this link right here, or you can visit my FAVORITE BLOGS AND WEBSITES links on the sidebar. He's doing really well, and he's been baptizing a lot of people! I love that guy!
Anyway, to my questions. I think I'm going to get this blog published sometime soon...
Question 4) Am I pleased about what I look like? If I could change any part of myself what would it be?
Answer) I think I'm fine the way I am, but if I could change something about me, I would probably change my eyes. I hate my glasses! I would make it so I could see perfectly without using glasses, contacts, or getting surgery. Ugh, I hate surgery. Even though I haven't had surgery, but from people telling me about it, I don't think I want to be in that situation.
Question 5) What is my favorite food? If I cook things for my family, what do I enjoy making most?
Answer) I think my all time favorite food has to be Black Bottom Cupcakes, and pretty much all Chinese food. Yumm... If I cook/bake for my family, my favorite is the Black Bottom Cupcakes (no surprise there) because once I'm finished, I can feel proud of what I did, and to reward myself I eat a cupcake! Mmmm! I should include the recipe sometime in this blog.
Question 6) Has anything major happened since the last time I wrote in my journal?
Answer) Yes. Something major just happened today, in fact. Well, first of all, spring break is over. :'( Also, I have after-school rehearsals every day until the end of April, when my production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat comes out. Phew! But to get to my story, I take care of a lot of pets in my neighborhood, and today was a very cold, rainy day. I was coming home from Alison Knight's house, finishing up babysitting her dog Shiloh. I was riding my scooter, and while I was turning down the driveway, the driveway was so slick my scooter flew out from underneath me and I flipped off the scooter and landed in some gravel on my side, totally bashing my hip bone on the driveway concrete/gravel on the side of the driveway. Now I have a bruise the size of a tennis ball with cuts on it, my elbow is all scraped up, and my hand has tiny flakes of skin peeling off. Miraculously, my head did not bang on the concrete. My arm had flown up and managed to cushion the fall by my head smacking on my arm instead. I am so grateful I didn't have a concussion, because the force of my fall would have been hard enough.
I think that's everything for today!
Ciao,

Journal Jar
Blog blog blog

Those words are to make up for my not-so-great excuse for not blogging enough. Wanna hear the excuse? I forgot.... (That was the excuse)
Anyway, to make me feel guilty, my amazingly awesome young women leaders did a lesson today on JOURNALING! I haven't touched this poor guy in a while, and I promised it lots of posts. Sorry, ol' buddy ol' pal. But, the good news is, got a JOURNAL JAR. Bask in the glory, baby.
If you DO know what a journal jar is, sit tight. If not, sit and read/listen.
A journal jar is a jar with hundreds of questions inside (like, on slips of paper. Example: Who was your favorite elementary school teacher? And then I would answer the question in my journal/blog) Soooo, yeah!
So I'm gonna do it! I'm so excited! I really hope that this journal jar will encourage me to blog/journal more. So, i'm going to answer three questions per entry! (Oh, sorry if I do the same questions every once in a while. Be patient with me, please! ::] ALIEN SMILEY FACE!)
Question 1) What is the weirdest dream I've ever had?
Answer) Well...there's been a lot, but the dream that comes to mind first is one that I've had when I was little; probably when I was five years old. In my dream, I was having a picnic with Pooh Bear, Tigger, and Piglet. I asked Pooh if he could pass the grape jelly (which really didn't make any sense to me, because I hate grape jelly) and he did. When I opened the jar, a huge purple monster came out, and he looked...like jelly. He tried to eat me! I ran away, and was about to fall off a cliff, when a slide popped out of no where and I slid safely to the bottom, when the jelly monster followed me. I climbed up a ladder, and went down the slide again, and I pretty much did that for the rest of my dream...it was weird...
Question 2) What is my favorite scripture and what feelings does it provoke?
Answer) My favorite scripture is Mosiah 2:17 in the Book of Mormon. It states: "And behold I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom, that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings, ye are only in the service of your God." It reminds me that we need to serve the lord, and we also need to gain a good education.
Question 3) What was I into when I was a child?
Answer) I think the toy I was totally into was Barbies, Polly Pocket, and My Little Pony. I was OBSESSED with them! I was such a little girl back then. Then again, I am a girl. Anyway, one day, a girl named Victoria Jackson (siblings: Amber, Spike, and Charlie) came over because my mom was teaching her older siblings piano, and she suggested we should play My Little Pony. Of course, I agreed. When my back was turned, she stole my My Little Pony horse, and cut off all of its hair! And when I turned around, she was surrounded by little yellow plastic hairs. I still haven't forgiven her of that, because it was my favorite. I know that it seems childish I haven't forgiven her but...still! You would be mad too! :) I was probably 5 or 6 years old. I started bawling and yelling at her, and I told her to leave my room and to go home! She got mad at me for yelling at her, so SHE started crying and ran out of the room. Ugh, that still makes me mad! Sorry for my unChristlike behavior.
Well, I had fun answering these questions! I'll be sure to do it again! Now I'll have something to write about! :)
Ciao for now!
