Questions

I have a few random questions going through my mind.  Don't ask me why they popped up in my mind, I don't even know, they just did.

1)Why when your out places, there is absolutely NO line for the men's bathroom, but when you get home they are always in the bathroom, and you constantly have to ask, "When are you going to be done?" 

2)Do I have Swine Flu?

3)If I do have Swine Flu, What do I do?

4)How many licks does it take to eat a tootsie pop?  I mean really, did anyone ever, really count?

5)Why do you park in the driveway, but drive on the parkway? O_o

6)Why do I still feel sooooooooo tired, when I just slept all night long?

7)Why me?

8)You know sticky tack or ticky tack, whatever you like to call it?  They call it blue tack, when its yellow. Why?

9)Why do the British say Americans say all these different things JUST because they think Americans wanted to be different?  I mean the British say all this weird lingo like, crackin', telly, and chuffed.  I mean, who could blame us?

10)Why are Clarks so ugly? (Some of them are cute, but the most comfy ones are pretty awful)

11)Why don't they have Lucky Charms over here?!? Or Fruit Loops?!?  Its a crime!!!!

12)Why do they make you use only blue or black pens?  I think the red pens should be used too!

13)Why is 13 an unlucky number?  I don't get it!

14)Why is Alexa so in love with that pink box?

15)Do you know what the degrees F temperature for 36.5 degrees Celsius is, cuz that’s my temperature.

16)Why are bricks red?

17)Why am I still adding questions?

18)Why do my eyes hurt all of a sudden?

19)Do I really have to LEARN Celsius?  Cuz If I have to take a test on it I'll totally fail.

20) This is my last question.  Why is the sky blue?

Here is another quote from the same movie below-

“Oh, my God. This place is beyond its normal grotesque. It's post-nuclear.”

Sick.

I'm sick. :P Although, I don't really know what I have... But anyways I feel awful and its been this way since, well, yesterday. My head hurts, my stomach hurts, my nose is all stuffed up, and I have a sore throat. Sucks. So I've been sitting on the couch watching T.V. all day. Heres a movie quote from a movie that I watched twice today.

"Why are you buttering a plastic scone?"
"Why are there plastic scones when we have real food on the table? Huh?"

I almost told my BFFA's little brother, Tucker to tell his sister, Taylor, to text my other friend Bhavya to tell to my other friend, Marion to tell Bhavya and Marion both that they are butt heads from me. But I didn't. Just thought I'd let you know.

A little bit of everything!

Today I was and still am tired. I should be since I stayed up until 1 in the morning and got up at 6:30am this morning. I swear I was about to fall asleep in math. Anyways I was walking home from the bus when I saw Alexa and Dad walking down the street so I ran as fast as I could to catch them. I finally caught them and we walked home together. After a while, I looked down at the carpet and I said, "What in the world is THAT?" I called out to Dad, "Hey dad! I think someone pooped in the hallway!"
He called out, "What?"
I called, "Just come here!"
After a few calls he came looked at the carpet and said," What in the world is that?"
I replied, "I do not know." There was a clump of brown thing with clumps of brown stuff behind it.
Dad said, "I think it's a snail."
"How did it get in here?" I asked.
"It must have come in from some one's shoe. Give me a piece of toilet paper." I did and I flushed it down the toilet and that's when I noticed the marks on the stairs. Then I looked at my shoe to see if it was and well it had stuck to my shoe and now I have snail guts on my shoe. Gross... Anyways, this poor snail had died very slowly. I had apparently stomped on it while I was running and didn't think anything about it. I just feel bad for the snail. Now for some pictures!!! hahaha not of the poor snail just some random pictures I feel like posting!

I hate... no I love!

You know what I hate?



I hate:

• essays that take too much time


• homework


• this keyboard


• the book I'm The King Of The Castle


• cleaning


• having to clean when I have no time for it


• looking at a dirty floor and wish you had time to clean it


• the feeling like you've disappointed someone
• uniforms
• ordering one thing and getting something you really didn't want or didn't ask for
• when fast food restaurants run out of sprite so they give you REALLY carbonated water that makes you feel even more thirsty
• feeling like you've got nothing accomplished

You know what I love?

I love:

• my family
• my friends
• my phone and ipod
• pens
• feeling like you could conquer the world
• reading books you actually LIKE
• nature
• being creative
• feeling accomplished
• getting something that you've been wanting for a long time and knowing exactly what your going to do with it or what your going to wear with it and then actually wearing it and feeling good all day
• Christmas
• over the knee high socks (preferably cute ones)
• feeling loved
• me
• this world
• God
• laughing A LOT

I wish now I could feel accomplished, that this keyboard would stop opening new tabs, that my room was clean, and that I could stop reading I'm The King Of The Castle. Its putting me down and I don't like it.

REALLY????

Okay, who knows what the difference between complementary colors and contrasting colors are???? Oo!Oo! Pick me! Pick me! I know! I know! Nothing. The difference is nothing. They are both the opposite colors on the color wheel and here I am supposed to be doing homework that doesn't make sense... lucky me.

BTW, the homework is... dun dun dun dunnnnnn 2 examples of complimentary colors and 2 examples of contrasting colors. He-llooooooo ITS THE EXACT SAME THING!!!! So really all I'm doing is 4 examples of the very same thing. woo-pee.

Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong. Please.

My accent

You'd think that 4 days after I arrive at a new school in a new country people would have fawned over my accent already, but no, that waited until today. Not that I'm complaining about it, I'm not seriously! But I think its funny, I'm guessing that word is getting around.

Today in Science, I got put at a table with all guys. Don't worry I don't like any of them! (Dad's probably gonna say that I jumped to conclusion that somebody was gonna say that but no I don't like them...at ALL.) So there was this one really talkative guy that sat beside me and he found out I was from Texas and he was all like, "say something!"

I said, "I really don't think I have an accent."

And he just looked at me and said, "Woah! You do!" And started quizzing me on American stuff like MLB and NFL. What my favorite teams were. And then he asked me about corn dogs. He asked me, "Do you eat corn dogs?"

I said, "Honestly, I really don't like them." Everyone around me gasped. "Well, I mean some people do, but I'm just not that big of a fan of them, " I said quickly.

Then he asked, "Whats in it?" I told him a hot dog and he interrupted, asking, "Is there really corn in them?"

I said, "No there is no corn in there whatsoever."

He asked, "What is it then? Why is called a corn dog?"

I said, "Because it has corn bread around it." Then I noticed everyone at the table was listening to me talk about a corn dog and what it was. The crazy, simple things that make people listen...

Then later on he asked, "Whats your name again?"

I said, "Amber"

He said, "Oh wow! I love that."

All the attention made me smile, again NOT because I like him, I DON'T, but because it felt good to be noticed and wanted to speak to.

Then we got on with our experiment and one of the guys asked the teacher why do we have to wear eye glasses (science goggles) when we are not even doing anything really with our eyes. The teacher said something I didn't catch and then said, "I blame the Americans."

The guy said, "But she's American right there!"

I asked, "What are you blaming on the Americans?"

He said, "Nothing, nothing." and walked away. Then class was over.

At the end of the day, I was walking out when this guy from my ICT class came and said hi. So I said Hi back and he said, "Wow you really do have the accent!"

I said, "I really don't think I do! I don't even hear it!"

He replied, "Well, your in England now!" And went downstairs.

So I guess my Texas accent that I don't think I have is getting around.

Adios, Y'all!

Oh, Oh, Oh, Its Magic!

Mom would say, "Its the secret!" Dad would say, "Its probably a coincidence!" I don't know what Alexa would say, but I say, "Its magic!"

It all started Sunday night. Alexa had played this Jonas Brothers song on Mom's iPhone on YouTube and it was all quiet and suddenly a song came on. It was a remake by Selena Gomez of Magic (Oh, Its Magic). Neither Alexa or Mom had touched that iPhone and I was all the way across the room! So we were just like, "So it IS magic"

The next day, I had my iPhone on that song and I was just listening to it and I pull out this clear, plastic box with this white purse and lotion and lip gloss wrapped up inside. From Christmas! I was supposed to give it away as a gift, but the movers packed it. So I was looking forward to getting the presents and my mother couldn't find them when she was unpacking! And I found them when the music was ON! So then I thought, "Wow it really IS magic!"

Today, I had my interview at Chessington Community College. I was accepted and was really pleased and happy. All I needed to make my day better was KFC and eat it at the park. And plus, it was a beautiful day! So we did! We got KFC and ate it at the park and I thought this is a Great day!!!! Then Mom said," You know what song is stuck in my head?"
I asked," What?"
She said," That magic song."
I replied," Oh my gosh! Its stuck in my head too!!"
Then, this guy ran in the park and I thought, "huh, that kinda looks like Dad!" And didn't think anything of it until he ran by again. I thought, "Wow it really DOES look like dad!" and dipped another french fry in ketchup.
My mom said," Say something!"
And in my head I was thinking, "Should I say something? Should I not? What if it isn't him? Then I would look like a fool and embarrass myself." So finally I yelled, "DAD!" Then to see my reaction and the rest of the story go to my Dad's blog, http://vollebaklife.blogspot.com/

But I'll just say that when I was walking on the way home I thought, "That song is DEFIANTLY magic!"

Over all, I believe in magic!

Do you believe in magic? (in a young girls heart? How the music can free her whenever it starts? And its magic!) Lol!!

Movie Quote #5

I love this movie! Well, I love a lot of movies... but I think this one is really cute and I could watch it again and again and again and again and again and well, you get the point.

"Eminem's on the phone; he wants an answer now."
"Umm... plain. Peanut? Plain!"

Google vs. Blackle

Google (www.google.com) is like the ultimate power search and they own another power search Blackle. (www.blackle.com) The Blackle power search is supposed to save energy and "go green" by being black. The white screen is supposedly wasting our resources by by using a lot of energy and, therefore, is wasting oil and petroleum. So, your supposed to go to Blackle. But here are my questions...

Why does pretty much NO one knows about it?

Why not just use a black screen for google?

Why created a WHOLE different power search just for it to be a different color?

Why is it such a big deal?

What are watt hours?

Why does Google only have videos and images and stuff like that and not Blackle?

Why does it matter?

Why should I use Blackle over Google? - They'd tell me, because I would be saving the environment...

Why should I use Google over Blackle?

Whatever happened to Ask.com?

Movie Quote #4

Alexa has started to quote this movie. Here is her favorite quote to quote. :)

1- Why are you on me?
2- Just a big fan, big fan.

If you can't guess it from there, here's another quote from the same movie.

I am not going out there as a woman pretending to be a man pretending to be Tina Turner. I can't afford therapy on my salary.

A Mouse's Tail

Once upon a time, there was a brave, little mouse who loved honor and justice and always told the truth...

The other day, everything was working out well for Alexa. Not so well for me. We had been looking for shoes (for me) all day at all these different stores. None to be found. Alexa, however, on the way back from shopping found a penny lying on the ground, face up, just waiting to be picked up for luck. Well, Alexa got that luck. She found 10 pounds just lying on the ground, on our street, rolled up, just waiting for someone to pick it up. She was very lucky, especially when she had just spent all of her money on pink stuff earlier that day.



That night, just as we were going to go up to bed, Mom decided to run the dishwasher and asked me to get a Tab thingy (dishwasher detergent in a rectangle) out from the cupboard under the sink where all the cleaners and chemicals were. So I opened it up and pop! A mouse's head come out from the box where the Tablets were and I slammed the cupboard door shut as it scurried away. I ran to the hall and jumped on a pile of dirty clothes (We were also doing laundry). Mom was kind of freaking out asking in a shaky voice, "Was it small? Brown? Uhhhh... What do we do now? Go call Dad and ask him what we should do." So I ran over to the computer and started calling Dad on skype. He wasn't there. But while the computer rang, I kept thinking about the mouse and how it scurried off and how it looked like it was just as scared as we were. We found out that there had been a big bag of bird feed that the mice had been taking and eating. So we cleaned out the cupboard and concluded that the mice had been contained in that one cupboard and they had just been getting bird feed, nothing else. That seemed to make us all relax. So after that we all went to bed.

Oh yeah, and apparently Mom also stepped on a snail. So overall it was a good day. Alexa found 10 quid, I scared a mouse, and Mom stepped on a snail. Yup! Sounds good to me! ;)

I could say they lived happily ever after, but what's the fun in that?

p.s. The sentences in italics are from a movie.
