Wishing I Had Somewhere Nice to Wear This

Sooooo...

I went shopping with Hey Baloney and I found this lovely dress:

Ain't it pretty? :)

I also bought a cute shirt as well but I'm lacking in photos for that. Rats.

It was a really amazing feeling being able to buy something without

freaking out about not having enough money.

Ahhh the joys of working! Stuff like this

makes up for the other crap I have to put up with sometimes ya know?

Oooh and this is my new henna tattoo!

It's supposed to be a rose surrounded by leaves...I'm not quite sure

if I mastered that. What do you think?

Anyways, lately I've been spending some of my time reading.

I have to read "A Farewell to Arms" for my summer reading assignment.

And I seriously hate it! Especially because I already know how it's going to

end which is a pretty typical Hemingway ending. Ugh.

Maybe I shouldn't have cheated and read the end

before finishing the rest huh? haha.

Yeah I'm kinda ashamed of that. I feel like I cheated.

The other book I've been spending my time reading is Harry Potter Numero Uno!

Even though I've already read all of them once before.

I really want to get through all of them again before I watch the newest one. :}

Hope you are all have a MARVELOUS day!

THE Shoes Tell You A Lot

Today relief flooded into my life today,

after I took my AP exam,

I felt oddly at peace.

A little brain dead I admit,

but less stressed.

My sisters Callie and Kaitlyn

picked me up early for school,

and we went walking through a forested park nearby.

We actually climbed a tree!

WELL...kinda.

I took a step up onto it and posed

for a picture. haha.

I think my sister Kaitlyn is an expert

on how to climb trees,

Callie gave her the idea today

(after Kaitlyn provided much

knowledge on the art of climbing trees)

to create a book, more of a memoir really!

HAHAHAHA.

I love my sissies.

Hope you all are doing well!

Joyeux Anniversaire Ono!

{Me the ladybug, Kaitlyn as Pocahontas, and Callie the ballerina}

Dearest Kaitlyn aka Ono aka My Baloney...

You are an amazing sister and I'm glad that you

have been in my life these sixteen long years.

You are a dear and I love you!

I hope you enjoy your birthday big sis

because you are a "punk rocker with flowers in your hair"

and you deserve the bestest!

I also can't wait to go see Camera Obscura with you

and Beanie.

HAVE AN AMAZING BIRTHDAY KAITLYN!!!

Here's my favorite b-day song heheheheh. I think you'll agree...

Lots of sisterly love,

Always Interesting Talking to You

So as many of you probably know I have two sisters and one brother. If you didn't know that well then now you do. haha. Anyways! My sister and I were talking a few weeks ago and she asked me to teach her French (because I have four long years of French class under my belt) and I agreed. That was mistake numero uno. hehe. JUST KIDDING CALLIE! :D

Anways tonight we started chatting and this is how our dialogue pretty much went:

(--the dashes symbolize translations--)

Callie: JESSSSIIICCCAAA how come you haven't taught me anything in French except, "may I go to the bathroom" and "grapefruit"???

Jessica: Parce que je suis le professeur de francais!

Callie(glaresat me): I don't know what you just said....

Jessica: *sigh* I said... "because I am the teacher of French!" Fine, fine. I'll teach you something.

Callie: Besides "may I go to the bathroom?"

Jessica: Yes besides may I go to the bathroom...

Callie: Okay, shoot!

Jessica: Repetez!

Callie: Reeyypeyteeez

Jessica: No no not yet!!

Callie: I thought you said repeat!

Jessica: I did but not yet!!!

Callie: FIINE! Are you ready yet?

Jessica: OUI! Okay...repetez! Est-ce que je peux aller aux toilletes?

Callie: NOT AGAIN! I already know how to say may I go the bathroom..

Jessica: hahahhahahahha I know, I just thought it was funny

Callie: grrrrrrr...

Jessica: Okay, okay... "Ou est l'ordinateur?" --means where's the computer?--

Callie: OOoh es ley ordinate--umm I forgot

Jessica: Non, non, non Callie! Repetez: Ou est l'ordinateur?

Callie: ooh ey luhh ordinatey-ree

Jessica: *slaps head* non, non, non, Callie! >>in French accent>> I QUIT!

Callie: Nooooo! YOU'RE FIRED!!

Jessica: FINE!

Callie: FINE!

Jessica: Au revoir ma soeur!! Tu es impossible! --Goodbye my sister! You are impossible!--

Callie then runs upstairs and I sit and think, then proceed to chase her upstairs and give her a bear hug.

Jessica: Je t'aime Callie! --I love you Calie!--

Callie: Je t'aime tu aussi Jessica --I love you Jessica!--

Jessica: Hey you actually learned something!!

Callie: grrrrr....

Well that was one of the many interesting conversations I have had with my sister! Haha. You haven't heard anything, when my sister Kaitlyn and my little brother Michael get in the middle of it we get even more loud and crazy! Do you have any siblings? Any crazy conversations? I'm all ears! :)

Have a great week you guys!
